Experimental data for green synthesis of Zn-abietate complex from natural resin

This data article is associated with the work "Ecofriendly synthesis of Zn-abietate complex derived from Pinus elliottii resin and its application as an antibacterial pigment against S. aureus and E. coli". The characterization data of the Znabietate complex obtained from Pinus elliottii resin and their reactional intermediary (Na-abietate) are reported. The Naabietate was prepared with purified Pinus resin and sodium hydroxide (>= 99%) in a stoichiometric ratio of 1:1. For the Znabietate synthesis was used ZnSO4 and Na-abietate solutions were at mild temperature and stirring without using organic solvents to ensuring the green character of the synthesis. Spectroscopic and structural characterization was consistent with an octahedral complex involving three carboxylate ligands per metal ion. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of the Na-abietate salt confirms the presence of carbonyl groups, carbon-oxygen atoms simple bonds (O-C/O=C), and carboxylate groups oxygen atoms (O-C= O). Analysis of the Zn LMM Auger, for the Zn-abietate complex, indicates the presence of zinc atoms with oxidation state Zn2+, this is supported by the distance between Zn 2p(3/2) and 1p(1/2) in the XPS spectrum. Together, these data will be useful for the structural representation of the samples. (C) 2021TheAuthor(s). PublishedbyElsevierInc.
