Abstract top

In the centrosymmetric binuclear title compound, [Cu2(C13H11Br2N2O)2(NO3)2], each CuII atom is five-coordinated by two phenolate O atoms, one nitrate O atom, one pyridine N atom and one amine N atom in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal CuO3N2 environment. The Cu...Cu separation is 3.207 (4) Å.

Comment top

The synthesis and characterization of binuclear copper(II) compounds have received increasing interest in bio-inorganic chemistry (Solomon et al., 1996) and catalysis (Collman, Zhong, Zhang & Costanzo, 2001; Collman, Zhong, Zeng & Costanzo, 2001). It is well known that the phenolate anion is a good bridging ligand for the construction of binuclear transition metal compounds (Gavrilova & Bosnich 2004; Yang et al., 2006). Modification of the phenolate anion in its ortho position can lead to the formation of stable binuclear compounds through chelation (Xu, et al., 2005). The structure of a new binuclear complex [Cu2(dmp)2(NO3)2], (I), where dmp is 2,4-dibromo-6-((pyridine-2-ylmethylamino)methyl)phenol, is presented here.

As shown in Fig. 1, the title compound, [Cu2(C13H11Br2N2O)(NO3)2], contains a binuclear copper(II) unit bridged by two phenolate O atoms with a Cu···Cu distance of 3.207 (4) Å. Each CuII atom is chelated by one dmp ligand and is also coordinated by a nitrate O atom. Finally, the trigonal-bipyramidal coordination environment is completed by bond to the phenolate O atom from another dmp ligand. The axial positions of the trigonal-bipyramid are occupied by one phenolate O atom and one pyridine N atom with the O—Cu—N angle being 171.25 (10)°.

Experimental top

2,4-Dibromo-6-((pyridine-2-ylmethylamino)methyl)phenol (0.372 g, 1 mmol) was added to a methanol solution (20 ml) of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O (0.241 g, 1 mmol) with stirring. The resulting solution was left to stand at room temperature and green crystals of (I) were obtained after several days.

Refinement top

All H atoms on C atoms were poisitioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso = 1.2Ueq (C). The H atom bonded to N atom was located in a difference Fourier map and refined freely.

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.
