The title compound, poly­[dizinc(II)-μ-ethyl­enedi­amine-di-μ-(hydrogen phosphito)], β-[H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5[ZnHPO3] or [Zn2(HPO3)2(C2H8N2)]n, is a hybrid organic/inorganic solid built up from ethyl­ene­di­amine mol­ecules (which lie about inversion centres), Zn2+ cations (coordinated by three O atoms and one N atom) and HPO32− hydrogen phosphite groups. The organic species bond to the Zn atom as unprotonated ligands, acting as bridges between infinite ZnHPO3 layers that propagate as very buckled (001) sheets. The zincophosphite sheets contain polyhedral four- and eight-membered rings in a 4.82 topology. β-[H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5·ZnHPO3 complements the previously described α modification of the same stoichiometry [Rodgers & Harrison (2000[Rodgers, J. A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2000). Chem. Commun. pp. 2385-2386.]). Chem. Commun. pp. 2385–2386].

Comment

Among the myriad variety of organically templated inorganic networks (Cheetham et al., 1999[Cheetham, A. K., Férey, G. & Loiseau, T. (1999). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 38, 3269-3292.]), a small but distinctive family contains tetrahedral ZnO3N and pyramidal SeO3 or pseudo-pyramidal HPO3 building blocks. The inorganic moieties share vertices, as Zn—O—Se or Zn—O—P bonds, thereby forming an infinite sheet. The linear-chain di­amine organic species bonds directly to zinc as a ligand via each N atom, thus acting as a `pillar' between the inorganic sheets. Both modifications of ethyl­enedi­amine zinc selenite, [H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5·ZnSeO3 (Choudhury et al., 2002[Choudhury, A., Kumar, U. D. & Rao, C. N. R. (2002). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 41, 158-161.]; Millange et al., 2004[Millange, F., Serre, C., Cabourdin, T., Marrot, J. & Féret, G. (2004). Solid State Sci. 6, 229-233.]), contain such sheets of ZnO3N and SeO3 groups, fused into a three-dimensional network by the ethyl­ene­di­amine moieties bonding to the Zn atoms via each NH2 group. These modifications differ in the topological connectivity (O'Keeffe & Hyde, 1996[O'Keeffe, M. & Hyde, B. G. (1996). Crystal Structures 1. Patterns and Symmetry, p. 357. Washington, DC: Mineralogical Society of America.]) of the Zn and Se nodal atoms; the first (Choudhury et al., 2002[Choudhury, A., Kumar, U. D. & Rao, C. N. R. (2002). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 41, 158-161.]) is based on 63 inorganic sheets (each nodal atom participates in three six-membered rings), whereas the second (Millange et al., 2004[Millange, F., Serre, C., Cabourdin, T., Marrot, J. & Féret, G. (2004). Solid State Sci. 6, 229-233.]) contains 4.82 sheets. The 1,4-di­amino­benzene template in [C6N2H8]0.5[ZnHPO3] (Kirkpatrick & Harrison, 2004[Kirkpatrick, A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2004). Solid State Sci. 6, 593-598.]) acts in a similar way to ethyl­ene­di­amine in the zinc selenite phases; in this case, 63 polyhedral sheets built up from ZnO3N and HPO3 units arise. Conversely, in [H2N(CH2)4NH2]0.5[ZnHPO3] (Ritchie & Harrison, 2004[Ritchie, L. K. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2004). Acta Cryst. C60, m634-m636.]), 4.82 polyhedral sheets arise from the ZnO3N and HPO3 units. Finally, [H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5[ZnHPO3] (Rodgers & Harrison, 2000[Rodgers, J. A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2000). Chem. Commun. pp. 2385-2386.]; hereafter known as the α modification of this stoichiometry) has a novel structure based on 4.82 sheets in which two independent networks form an interpenetrating array akin to some coordination polymers.

[Scheme 1]

We describe here the title compound, (I[link]), which crystallizes as a second, β, modification of [H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5[ZnHPO3]. Compound (I[link]) (Fig. 1[link]) is built up from neutral unprotonated ethyl­ene­di­amine [H2N(CH2)2NH2 or C2H8N2] mol­ecules, Zn2+ cations and HPO32− hydrogen phosphite groups. Each complete ethyl­ene­di­amine entity is generated from a half-mol­ecule H2NCH2– fragment by inversion symmetry. However, these entities differ significantly in their conformations (Table 1[link]); in the N1-containing mol­ecule, atoms Zn1 and C1v (see Table 1[link] for symmetry code) are gauche, whereas in the N2-containing mol­ecule, the equivalent pair of atoms, Zn2 and C2vi, are close to anti. Both the N atoms of each H2N(CH2)2NH2 mol­ecule make ligand-like bonds to zinc by formal donation of their lone pair of electrons, as observed for the related systems (Rodgers & Harrison, 2000[Rodgers, J. A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2000). Chem. Commun. pp. 2385-2386.]; Kirkpatrick & Harrison, 2004[Kirkpatrick, A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2004). Solid State Sci. 6, 593-598.]) noted above. The tetrahedral zinc coordination is completed by three O atoms [mean Zn—O = 1.931 (10) Å], each of which form bridges to P atoms of nearby HPO32− groups [mean Zn—O—P = 135.1 (6)°]. The pseudo-pyramidal HPO32− moieties have typical (Kirkpatrick & Harrison, 2004[Kirkpatrick, A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2004). Solid State Sci. 6, 593-598.]) geometric parameters, with a mean P—O distance of 1.513 (10) Å and a mean O—P—O angle of 112.9 (7)°. Both distinct HPO32− groups form bridges to three nearby zinc cations. As usual, the PH moieties do not interact with any nearby chemical species.

The polyhedral building units in (I[link]) thus consist of ZnO3N and HPO3 tetrahedra, linked by way of the O atoms. These units form sheets, built up from strictly alternating Zn- and P-centred moieties, which propagate in the (001) plane. Every tetrahedral node (i.e. the Zn and P atoms) participates in one four-atom loop (composed of the asymmetric unit atoms) and two eight-atom loops (Fig. 2[link]), thus generating a 4.82 sheet topology (O'Keeffe & Hyde, 1996[O'Keeffe, M. & Hyde, B. G. (1996). Crystal Structures 1. Patterns and Symmetry, p. 357. Washington, DC: Mineralogical Society of America.]).

The organic species crosslink the (001) ZnHPO3 sheets in a Zn—b—Zn (b is the organic bridge) fashion, as shown in Fig. 3[link], resulting in a hybrid `pillared' structure in which the inorganic and organic components of the structure alternate along [001]. In principle, this arrangement represents an unusual kind of microporosity, with the channels bounded by both inorganic and organic surfaces. However, in (I[link]), unlike the case of organically pillared zirconyl phosphates (Alberti et al., 1999[Alberti, G., Brunet, E., Dionigi, M., Juanes, O., Mata, M. J., Rodriguez-Ubis, J. C. & Vivani, R. (1999). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 38, 3351-3353.]), the presence of the P—H bond protruding into the channel region and the steric bulk of the ethyl­ene­di­amine moieties means that there is no possibility of ingress by other chemical species. Finally, the ethyl­ene­di­amine –NH2 groups in (I[link]) participate in N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Table 2[link]), all of which are close to linear (mean H—H⋯O = 172°). These hydrogen bonds appear to help to anchor the organic moiety to an eight-membered ring window in the zinc hydrogen phosphite layer, in a similar way to the behaviour of ethyl­ene­di­amine in α-[H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5[ZnHPO3] (Rodgers & Harrison, 2000[Rodgers, J. A. & Harrison, W. T. A. (2000). Chem. Commun. pp. 2385-2386.]). However, the zincophosphite eight-membered ring pores in (I[link]) are distinctly flattened, whereas in α-[H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5[ZnHPO3] they are far more regular. The recently reported ethyl­ene­di­ammonium zinc hydrogen phosphite [H3N(CH2)2NH3][Zn2(HPO3)3] (Lin et al., 2004[Lin, Z. E., Zhang, J., Zheng, S. T. & Yang, G. Y. (2004). Solid State Sci. 6, 371-376.]) is a more conventional templated network (Cheetham et al., 1999[Cheetham, A. K., Férey, G. & Loiseau, T. (1999). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 38, 3269-3292.]), in which the organic species is protonated and interacts with the inorganic component by way of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Interestingly, a 4.82 network topology is formed by the [Zn2(HPO3)3]2− sheets.

Experimental

A mixture of zinc oxide (3.00 g), phospho­rus acid (H3PO3, 2.02 g) and ethyl­enedi­amine (1.48 g) (molar ratio 2:3:2) was shaken in distilled water (20 ml) in a 60 ml HDPE (high-density polyethylene) bottle for a few minutes, resulting in the formation of a white slurry. The bottle was then placed in an oven at 353 K for 2 d. The solid product was filtered by suction filtration using a Buchner funnel and rinsed with water and acetone, resulting in intergrown fans of needle- and blade-like crystals of (I[link]) accompanied by some undissolved zinc oxide.

Among the myriad variety of organically templated inorganic networks (Cheetham et al., 1999) a small but distinctive family contains tetrahedral ZnO3N and pyramidal SeO3 or pseudo-pyramidal HPO3 building blocks. The inorganic moieties share vertices, as Zn—O—Se or Zn—O—P bonds, thereby forming an infinite sheet. The linear-chain diamine organic species bonds directly to zinc as a ligand via each N atom, thus acting as a `pillar' between the inorganic sheets. Both modifications of ethylenediamine zinc selenite, [H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5·ZnSeO3 (Choudhury et al., 2002; Millange et al., 2004), contain such sheets of ZnO3N and SeO3 groups fused into a three-dimensional network by the ethylenediamine moieties bonding to Zn via each NH2 group. These modifications differ in the topological connectivity (O'Keeffe & Hyde, 1996) of the Zn and Se nodal atoms; the first (Choudhury et al., 2002) is based on 63 inorganic sheets (each nodal atom participates in three six-membered rings) whereas the second (Millange et al., 2004) contains 4.82 sheets. The 1,4-diaminobenzene template in [C6N2H8]0.5·ZnHPO3 (Kirkpatrick & Harrison, 2004) acts in a similar way to ethylenediamine in the zinc selenite phases; in this case, 63 polyhedral sheets built up from ZnO3N and HPO3 units arise. Conversely, in [H2N(CH2)4NH2]0.5·ZnHPO3 (Ritchie & Harrison, 2004), 4.82 polyhedral sheets arise from the ZnO3N and HPO3 units. Finally, [H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5·ZnHPO3 (Rodgers & Harrison, 2000; hereafter known as the α modification of this stoichiometry) has a novel structure based on 4.82 sheets in which two independent networks form an interpenetrating array akin to some coordination polymers.

We describe here the title compound, (I), which crystallizes as a second, β, modification of [H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5·ZnHPO3. Compound (I) (Fig. 1) is built up from neutral unprotonated ethylenediamine [H2N(CH2)2NH2 or C2H8N2] molecules, Zn2+ cations and HPO32− hydrogen phosphite groups. Each complete ethylenediamine entity is generated from a half-molecule H2NCH2 fragment by inversion symmetry. However, these entities differ significantly in their conformations (Table 1); in the N1-containing molecule, atoms Zn1 and C1v (see Table 1 for symmetry code) are gauche, whereas in the N2-containing molecule, the equivalent pair of atoms, Zn2 and C2vi, are close to anti. Both the N atoms of each H2N(CH2)2NH2 molecule make ligand-like bonds to zinc by formal donation of their lone pair of electrons, as observed for the related systems (Rodgers & Harrison, 2000; Kirkpatrick & Harrison, 2004) noted above. The tetrahedral zinc coordination is completed by three O atoms [mean Zn—O = 1.931 (10) Å], each of which form bridges to P atoms of nearby HPO32− groups [mean Zn—O—P = 135.1(s.u.?)°]. The pseudo-pyramidal HPO32− moieties have typical (Kirkpatrick & Harrison, 2004) geometric parameters, with a mean P—O distance of 1.513 (10) Å, and a mean O—P—O angle of 112.9 (7)°. Both distinct HPO32− groups form bridges to three nearby zinc cations. As usual, the P—H moieties do not interact with any nearby chemical species.

The organic species crosslink the (001) ZnHPO3 sheets in a Zn—b—Zn (b is the organic bridge) fashion, as shown in Fig. 3, resulting in a hybrid `pillared' structure in which the inorganic and organic components of the structure alternate along [001]. In principle, this arrangement represents an unusual kind of microporosity, with the channels bounded by both inorganic and organic surfaces. However, in (I), unlike the case of organically pillared zirconyl phosphates (Alberti et al., 1999), the presence of the P–H bond protruding into the channel region and the steric bulk of the ethylenediamine moieties means that there is no possibility of ingress by other chemical species. Finally, the ethylenediamine –NH2 groups in (I) participate in N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 2), all of which are close to linear (mean H—H···O = 172°). These hydrogen bonds appear to help to anchor the organic moiety to an eight-membered ring window in the zinc hydrogen phosphite layer, in a similar way to the behaviour of ethylenediamine in α-[H2N(CH2)2NH2]0.5·ZnHPO3 (Rodgers & Harrison, 2000).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
