(Benzoato-[kappa]2O,O')chlorido(di-2-pyridylamine-[kappa]2N,N')copper(II)

N. Okabe, A. Tsuji and M. Yodoshi

Abstract top

In the title complex, [Cu(C7H5O2)Cl(C10H9N3)], the Cu atom has a distorted CuN2O2Cl square-pyramidal geometry defined by one N,N'-bidentate 2,2'-bipyridylamine (bpa) molecule, one O,O'-bidentate benzenecarboxylate (BA) anion and one chloride ion, the latter in the apical position. The complete molecule is generated by mirror symmetry with the NH group of bpa, the Cu atom, three C atoms of BA and the Cl atom lying on the mirror plane. The complexes are connected to each other by N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds and [pi]-[pi] stacking interactions between adjacent heterocyclic rings, with distances between the ring centroids of 3.592 (4) and 3.468 (4) Å.

Comment top

The construction of novel Cu(II) complexes are important for the development of new therapeutic drug design, because some Cu(II) complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline have antitumor activity (Selvakumar et al., 2006; Li et al., 2005; Kelland, 2005; Ranford et al., 1993).

In a previous study, we have reported the structure of the ternary Cu(II) complex with 2,2'-bipyridylamine (bpa) and p-hydroxybenzenecarboxylate (p-HB) (Wang & Okabe, 2005) in which the bpa ligand has been used as the bidentate N-donor ligand and p-HB as the bidentate O-donor. In this study, we report the structure of the Cu(II) complex with bpa and benzenecarboxylate (BA), (I).

The central Cu atom in (I) (Fig. 1) has a square-pyramidal CuN2O2Cl geometry. Each Cu atom is coordinated by two N atoms from one bpa and two O atoms from one BA and one chloride anion. The bond distances and angles around the Cu atom indicate that the coordination geometry is a slightly distorted square pyramidal (Table 1).

In the complex molecule, the two pyridine rings of the bpa ligand are related by mirror symmetry and distinguished as Ring I (N1/C1—C5) and Ring II (N1i/C1i—C5i) [symmetry code: (i)(x, 1/2 - y, z)]. Four ligand atoms (N1, N1i,O1 and O1i) are neary coplanar, and the Cu atom deviates from the mean square plane towards the apical Cl atom by 0.2986 (1) Å. The bite angle N1—Cu1—N1i is in the range normally observed for the Cu(II) bpa complexes (Wang & Okabe, 2005; Youngme et al., 1999, 2004) The Cu—Cl distance is intermediate between the known values from 2.336 (2) to 2.733 (2) Å (Mao et al., 2004; Brophy et al., 1999). The long Cu—Cl bond distance is explained by the well known Jahn-Teller effect. The molecular structure of (I) is similar to that of the Cu(II) complex with bpa and p-HB (Wang & Okabe, 2005), although the hydrogen bonding and the packing modes of these are different to each other.

As shown in Figs. 2a and 2 b, the crystal structure of (I) is stabilized by hydrogen bonds (Table 2) and by two kinds of π-π stacking interactions with distances between the centroids of the aromatic rings, 3.592 (4) Å between Cg1 (Ring I) and Cg3 (Ring II) at (x, y, 1 + z) and 3.468 (4) Å between Cg2 (N1/C5/N2/C5i/N1i/Cu1) [symmetry code: (i) (x, 1/2 - y, z)] and Cg4 (BA) at (1 - x, 1 - y, 1 - z).

Experimental top

2,2'-Bipyridylamine (5.0 mg, 0.03 mol) dissolved in 90%(v/v) methanol-water solution (2 ml) was reacted with benzoic acid (3.6 mg, 0.03 mol), dissolved in the same solution (2 ml) for 5 min at room temperature. This was followed by the addition of CuCl2.2H2O (5.0 mg, 0.03 mol) dissolved in H2O (1 ml) and reacted for 15 min at room temperature. After several days green plates of (I) appeared from the mother liquor.

Refinement top

All H atoms were located from the difference Fourier maps, and then were placed in idealized positions and treated as riding, with C—H = 0.93 Å, N—H = 0.86Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N).
