Redetermination of catena-poly[[nitrato(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II)]-[mu]-nitrato]

X.-C. Zhou and Y.-Q. Liu

Abstract top

The structure of the title copper coordination polymer, [Cu(NO3)3(C10H8N2)]n, previously reported by McFadden & McPhail [J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. (1975), pp. 1993-1998], has been redetermined, leading to a more precise result. The crystal structure consists of a zigzag chain formed by the polymer [Cu(NO3)3(phen)]n (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline). The CuII atom has a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment consisting of two N atoms of the phen ligand, two O atoms of different nitrate ligands, and one O atom of a nitrate anion. The compound forms a one-dimensional chain using nitrate as an end-to-end bridging ligand.

Comment top

Each CuIIion is five-coordinated and possess a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry, defined by two N atoms from one 1,10-phenanthroline ligand, two O atoms of two different bridging nitrate acid anion, and one O atom of a symetry related mono-dentate nitrate anion (Fig. 1). The compound forms a one-dimensional chain using nitrate anion as an end-to-end bridging ligand. The Cu—N bond lengths is almost equal, with Cu1—N1 being 1.998 (2) Å and Cu1—N2 being 2.004 (2) Å, respectively. The bond length between Cu1 and O atoms which set at the peak of the square-pyramidal are longer than between the O atoms which locates at the plane of square-pyramidal, the shorter bond lengths of Cu1—O1 and Cu1—O6 being 1.9556 (17) Å and 1.9979 (18) Å, the longer Cu—O bond length is 2.3410 (18) Å for Cu1—O4.

The packing is further stabilized by π_π stacking interactions involving the phenanthroline ring systems, the distance between the closest centroids being 3.66\%A with an interplanar distance of 3.60\%A.

Experimental top

Cu(NO3)2.3H2O (0.0242 g, 0.1 mmol) was dissolved in a small test tube (5 ml e thanol),then 1,10-phenanthroline (0.0199 g, 1 mmol) was added, NaOH (0.006 g, 0.15 mmol) was then added to the above solution. The whole mixture was sealed in a close vessel with 30 ml e ther. 4 days later, blue crystals of (I) were obtained.

Refinement top

All H were fixed geometrically and treated as riding on their parent atoms with C—H = 0.93 Å 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.
