The title compound, [Cr(CN)2(C12H8N2)2][Cr(N3)2(C18H12N4O2)]·H2O, contains [CrIII(CN)2(phen)2]+ cations (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline) and [CrIII(N3)2(bpb)] anions [bpb is 1,2-bis­(pyridine-2-carboxamido)benzene or N,N′-(o-phenyl­ene)bis­(pyridine-2-carboxamide)]. In the cations, the CrIII atom is coordinated by two phen ligands and two cyanide ligands in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. In the anions, the CrIII atom is coordinated by the tetra­dentate bpb ligand and two azide ions, forming a distorted octa­hedral geometry. There is one solvent water mol­ecule per cation–anion pair, which forms hydrogen bonds to one carbonyl group of the bpb ligand and to the terminal N atom of one cyanide ligand.

Comment top

The title compound (Fig. 1) contains [CrIII(phen)2(CN)2]+ cations (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) and [CrIII(bpb)(N3)2]- anions (bpb = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)benzene). In the cations, CrIII is coordinated by two phen ligands and two cyanide ligands in a distorted octahderal geometry. In the anions, CrIII is coordinated by the tetradentate bpb ligand and by two azide ions, also in a distorted octahedral geometry. There is one lattice water molecule per formula unit, which forms hydrogen bonds to one carboxyl group of the bpb ligand and to the terminal N atom of one azide ligand.

The closely related neutral compound, [Cr(bpb)(N3)(H2O)].H2O, has been reported previously (Ni et al., 2006).

Experimental top

A mixture of K[Cr(bpb)(CN)2] (0.1 mmol) (bpb = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)benzene), CrCl3 (0.1 mmol), phenthroline (0.2 mmol) and NaCN (0.5 mmol) in 20 ml e thanol (95%) was refluxed for two hours. The filtrate was evaporated under ambient conditions to give blue crystals with a yield of 26%. Elemental analysis calculated: 56.48, H 3.21, N 23.96%; found: C 56.41, H 3.26, N 23.89%.

Refinement top

H atoms of the water molecule were located from difference Fourier maps and were refined with distance restraints of d(O—H) = 0.82 (2) Å and d(H···H) = 1.38 (2) Å. All other H atoms were placed in calculated positions with a C—H distance of 0.93%A and refined as riding with 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.
