Abstract top

The title compound, [Co(C2H3O2)2(C12H8N2)]n, is a polymeric complex involving bridging of CoII ions by single syn-anti acetate ligands. Each Co atom is five-coordinated by two 1,10-phenanthroline N atoms and three O atoms of acetate ligands within a bipyramidal coordination geometry. In the crystal structure, C-H...O hydrogen bonds result in the formation of a polymeric ribbon structure.

Comment top

In the synthesis of crystal structures by design, the assembly of molecular units in predefined arrangements is a key goal (Desiraju, 1995, 1997; Braga et al., 1998). Aromatic polycyclic compounds, such as phenanthroline, quinoline and benzimidazole, are one of the most important classes of biological ligands and the coordinations of metal-aromatic polycyclic compounds are of critical importance in biological systems, organic materials and coordination chemistry (Wu et al., 2003; Pan & Xu, 2004; Liu et al., 2004; Li et al., 2005). As a bidentate flexible ligand, carboxyl groups compounds are also good ligands with excellent coordination capabilities to generate mono-, bi- or trinuclear complexes, which are commonly used as precursors for the formation of supramolecular architectures (McCann et al., 1996; McCann et al., 1995; Wai et al., 1990; Yaghi et al., 1996; Min & Lee 2002; Maira et al., 2001). We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound, (I).

In the molecule of (I) (Fig. 1), the ligand bond lengths and angles are within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). It has an inversion centre midway between the two CoII ions, which are bridged by two bidentate and two monodentate carboxyl groups. Each Co atom is five-coordinated by two N atoms of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand and three O atoms of acetate ligands. The Co—O and Co—N bonds are in the range of [1.941 (2)–2.320 (2) Å] and [1.984 (2)–2.008 (3) Å], respectively (Table 1).

In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 2, Fig. 2) result in the formation of a polymeric ribbon structure.

Experimental top

Crystals of the title compound were synthesized using hydrothermal method in a 23 ml Teflon-lined Parr bomb. Cobalt (II) nitrate hexahydrate (291.1 mg, 1 mmol), phen (180.2 mg, 1 mmol), acetic acid (120.1 mg, 2 mmol), ammonia (4 ml, 0.5 mol/l) and distilled water (10 g) were placed into the bomb and sealed. The bomb was then heated under autogenous pressure up to 453 K over the course of 7 d and allowed to cool at room temperature for 24 h. Upon opening the bomb, a clear colorless solution was decanted from small pink crystals. These crystals were washed with distilled water followed by ethanol, and allowed to air-dry at room temperature.

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H = 0.93 and 0.96 Å, for aromatic and methyl H atoms and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl H and x = 1.2 for aromatic H atoms.

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.
