Diaqua(benzoato-[kappa]2O,O')(2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline-[kappa]2N,N')nickel(II) nitrate dihydrate

Abstract top

The title compound, [Ni(C7H5O2)(C14H12N2)(H2O)2]NO3·2H2O, consists of one NiII complex cation, two solvent water molecules and one non-coordinated nitrate anion. The NiII ion has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry, bonded to two N atoms from one 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dmphen) ligand, two O atoms from one benzoate anion and two water molecules. Both the cation and anion lie on a twofold rotation axis. O-H...O hydrogen bonds involving the water molecules as donors and [pi]-[pi] stacking interactions between the dmphen ligands of symmetry-related cations, with a distance between their ring planes of 3.2197 Å, seem to determine the crystal packing.

Comment top

The formula unit of (I, Fig. 1) comprises a mononuclear [Ni(dmphen)(benzoate)(H2O)2]+ cation, two uncoordinated water molecules, and a nitrate anion (dmphen is 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline). The NiII ion is in a distorted octahedral NiN2O4 geometry, being coordinated by two N atoms of the dmphen ligand, two O atoms of the benzoate anion and two O atoms of two water molecules. The coordination bond lengths and angles are given in Table 1. Both cation and anion have a crystallographic twofold symmetry, passing through the metal atom, dmphen molecule, benzoate anion, and nitrate anion. The non-coordinated nitrate anion is almost perpendicular to the phenyl ring of benzoate anion, with a dihedral angle of 83.05° between mean planes. In the crystal structure, one-dimensional chains along [100] are formed by intermolecular Owater—H···Onitrate and Owater—H···Owater hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2 and Table 2). The crystal packing is also stabilized by ππ interactions between the dmphen rings of neighboring molecules (Fig. 2), with a distance between their ring planes of 3.220 Å.

Experimental top

To a solution of dmphen hemihydrate (C14H12N2.0.5 H2O, 0.1089 g, 0.5 mmol) and sodium benzoate (0.072 g, 0.5 mmol) in ethanol (10 ml) was added a solution of Ni(NO3)2·6H2O (0.1455 g, 0.5 mmol) in distilled water (10 ml). The resulting solution was refluxed for 5 h at 333 K and filtrated. Green single crystals of (I) were obtained after 4 d. by slow evaporation of the filtrate.

Refinement top

H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic CH; 0.96 Å for methyl CH3), and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(carrier C) (aromatic CH) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(carrier C) (methyl CH3). The water H atoms were located in a difference map and were refined as riding to their O atoms, with O—H bonds fixed to 0.82 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(carrier O).
