In the title complex, [CuFe(C5H5)(C20H14N3)(C10H8N2)](BF4)2, the CuII atom is five-coordinated by a tridentate chelating 4′-ferrocenyl-2,2′:6′,2"-terpyridine (fctpy) ligand and a bidentate chelating 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) ligand. The coordination polyhedron is distorted square-pyramidal with an N atom from the bipyridine ligand in the apical position at a Cu—N distance of 2.195 (3) Å. In the crystal structure, tetra­fluoridoborate counter-ions are involved as acceptors in inter­molecular C—H...F hydrogen-bonding inter­actions with both the bipyridyl and terpyridyl ligands, resulting in a three-dimensional supra­molecular structure.

Comment top

The chemistry of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine (tpy) ligand has been the subject of numerous studies because of its good chelating ability towards transition metal ions, and some of its complexes are promising materials for potential applications as luminescent devices (Andres & Schubert, 2004; Barigelletti & Flamigni, 2000; Licini & Williams, 1999). Especially, the central pyridyl ring can be easily functionalized to attain different aims, and much work has been done on functionalized terpyridine complexes (Hofmeier & and Schubert, 2004). For example, several studies have been carried out on the structure and electrochemical properties of 4'-ferrocenyl-2,2':6',2"-terpyridine (fctpy) and its AuI, RuII, CoII and FeII complexes (Aguado et al., 2005; Constable et al., 1994; Farlow et al., 1993). In this work, we represent a new mixed-ligand complex, incorporating fctpy and 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) ligands.

In the title complex, (I), Fig. 1, the CuII atom is five-coordinated by three N atoms from the fctpy ligand and two N atoms from the bpy, ligand displaying a distorted square pyramidal geometry. The apex of the pyramid is occupied by the N5 from the bpy ligand with a Cu1—N5 distance of 2.195 (3) Å, which is somewhat longer than those in the basal plane [Cu—N distances in the range 1.928 (3)–2.062 (3) Å]. The angles subtended at Cu(1) by the tridentate terpyridyl ligand are 79.52 (12) and 80.08 (12) ° respectively. The two cyclopentadienyl rings of the ferrocenyl group are almost eclipsed and the dihedral angle between the two rings is 5.1 (2) °.

In the crystal structure, tetrafluoridoborate counterions are involved as acceptors in intermolecular C—H···F hydrogen-bonding interactions with both the bipyridyl and terpyridyl ligands, resulting a three-dimensional supramolecular structure, Table 1.

Experimental top

The ligand fctpy was synthesized according to the reported procedure (Farlow et al., 1993). A solution of copper fluoroborate hydrate (69.8 mg, 0.2 mmol), fctpy (82.5 mg, 0.2 mmol) and 2,2'-bipyridine (32.1 g, 0.2 mmol) in methanol (15 ml) was stirred for 4 h. The product was filtered off and dried. The precipitate were recrystallized from acetonitrile (10 ml) to give black block-shaped crystals of the title complex after one week. Yield: 105 mg (65%).

Refinement top

The carbon-bound H atoms were placed at calculated positions (C—H = 0.93 Å) and refined as riding, with U(H) = 1.2Ueq(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.
