Abstract top

The title compound, {[Cu(C10H8N2)(NO3)2(H2O)2]·0.5H2O}n, has a linear polymeric structure, with the bridging ligand 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy) connecting the CuII ions. Each ion lies on an inversion center and has a distorted octahedral environment, being coordinated by two bipy ligands, two nitrate anions and two water molecules [Cu-N = 2.010 (3) Å and Cu-O = 1.981 (3) and 2.414 (3) Å]. In the crystal structure, the linear polymeric chains, propagating in two directions, are linked by intermolecular O-H...O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three-dimensional supramolecular network, which has channels parallel to the c axis containing the water molecules of crystallization. The water molecule is equally disordered over two positions.

Comment top

Supramolecular architectures based on –M-bipy-M– have been receiving increasing attention, which are often extended through weaker interactions including hydrogen bonding and πi-πi stacking (Woodward et al., 2006; Lu et al., 2006; Ghosh et al., 2005). In this work, we chose 4,4'-bipyridine as a spacer ligand to react with a copper salt, resulting in the novel one-dimensional title compound, {[Cu(C10H8N2)(NO3)2(H2O)2].0.5(H2O)}n (I), which are linked into three-dimensional architecture by intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

Part of the chain structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. Each Cu (II) center is situated on an inversion center, coordinated by two N atoms of two bridging bipy ligands, two water molecules and two nitrato anions in a distorted octahedral environment. The bipy ligand bridges the adjacent Cu(II) centers, leading to the formation of linear –Cu-bipy-Cu- chains in which the distance of two neighboring Cu(II) centers is 11.043 (4) Å, and the nearest Cu···Cu (x + 1/2, -y + 1, -z - 1/2) interchain separation is 7.058 (3) Å.

In the packing diagram, the linear chains are arranged in a cross-like fashion and linked by numerous intermolecular hydrogen bonds O—H···O between the coordinated water molecules and nitrato anions (Table 2) (Fig. 2), resulting in a three-dimensional supramolecular array. The rhombic channels running along

the c axis (Fig. 2) are filled with the disordered crystalline water molecules.

Experimental top

An ethanol solution of 4,4'-bipyridine(0.1 mmol) was added to one side of a H-tube, and an ethanol solution of Cu(NO3)2(0.1 mmol) was added to another side of the H-tube. The tube stood at room temperature for about one and a half month, and well shaped crystals of (I) were obtained.

Refinement top

Atom O1W of the crystalline water molecule is disordered between two positions, A and B, respectively. The final occupancy factors for the atoms O1WA and O1WB were assigned to 0.25 each. The H atoms attached to O1WA and O1WB were not positioned. H atoms of the coordinated water molecule were located from difference maps and refined with the O—H distances restrained to 0.82 (1) Å. All other H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding [C—H=0.93Å and Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(C)].

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.
