4O,N,N',O'}cobalt(II)In the title compound, [Co(C18H18N2O4)(H2O)], the CoII atom is coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry defined by two O atoms and two N atoms in the basal positions, and one water molecule in the apical position. The CoII atom and water O atom lie on a symmetry plane defining Cs molecular symmetry. In the crystal structure, the ethylenediamine group is disordered over two positions with equal occupancy. Molecules are linked into chains via O-H
O hydrogen bonds.
2-Hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldehyde (0.152 g, 1 mmol), ethane-1,2-diamine (0.120 g, 2 mmol) and Co(NO3)2·6H2O (0.290 g, 1 mmol) were dissolved in a mixture solution (8 ml of methanol: acetonitrile = 1:1(v / v)). The solution was sealed in a 15 ml Teflon-lined stainless steel bomb and held at 353 K for 5 d. Then, a bomb was cooled to room temperature and red block crystals were filtered off, washed with methanol and dried at room temperature. Elemental analysis, calcd (%) for C18H20CoN2O5: C 62.78, H 5.85, N 8.13; found (%): C 62.56, H 5.92, N 8.11.
There is positional disorder of C9 and C9'i over two equally occupied sites. It was assumed that the ethylenediamine moiety has two possible conformations, namely N1–C9(H9A/H9B)–C9'i(H9Ci/H9Di)–N1'i and N1'–C9'(H9C/H9D)–C9i(H9Ai/H9Bi)–N1i[symmetry code: (i) x, 1/2 − y, z]. H atoms of the water molecule were located in a difference Fourier map, but their distances and angles were restrained to literature values with U(H) = 1.5 times Ueq(O). All other H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C–H distances of 0.95–0.98 Å and U(H) = 1.2–1.5 times Ueq(C).

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. |

Using H2L [where H2L is N,N'-ethylene-bis(3-methoxysalicylaldiminato)], we have hydrothermally prepared the title compound, (I), namely Co(L)(H2O). As an example of penta coordinated Co(II) complexes there are series of complexes with 1,4-diazacycloheptane (DACH) functionalized by additional imidazole or pyridine donor pendants [CoL1Cl](ClO4)·H2O, [CoL2Cl](ClO4) and [CoL3Cl](ClO4)·CH3OH, where L1=1,4-bis(imidazole-4-ylmethyl)-DACH, L2=1,4-bis(N-1-methylimidazol-2-ylmethyl)-DACH and L3=1,4-bis(pyridyl-2-ylmethyl)-DACH that were synthesized and characterized (Guo et al., 2002). In the present structure Co(II) atom is coordinated by two phenolato oxygen atoms and two imine nitrogen atoms from L2− ligand, and one water molecule to furnish a distorted square pyramidal coordination geometry (Fig. 1, Table 1). The O atom of water molecule is at the apical position of square pyramid and the other two O atoms and two N atoms are at the base of square pyramid. The CoII and O atom of water molecule lie on a symmetry plane. The two C atoms of ethylenediamine moiety are disordered over two positions with equal occupancy. The complex generates 1-D chain through hydrogen bonds between water molecule and phenolato oxygen (Table 2 and Fig. 2).
