2N,N')zinc(II)The molecular structure of the title compound, [ZnBr2(C10H8N2S2)], contains a seven-membered chelate ring in which the zinc atom is coordinated by two bromide ions and by the two pyridyl N atoms of a single 2,2'-dipyridyldisulfide (dpds) ligand within a slightly distorted tetrahedron. As is usual for this type of complex, the disulfide group does not participate in zinc coordination. The chelate complexes are connected via weak intermolecular C-H
Br hydrogen bonding into chains, which extend in the [010] direction.
ZnBr2 and dpds was obtained from Alfa Aesar and methanol was obtained from Fluka. 0.125 mmol (28.15 mg) zinc(II) bromine, 0.125 mmol (27.5 mg) dpds and 3 ml of methanol were transfered in a test-tube, which were closed and heated to 110 °C for four days. On cooling colourless block-shaped single crystals of (I) were obtained.
All H atoms were located in difference map but were positioned with idealized geometry and were refined isotropic with Ueq(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) of the parent atom using a riding model with C—H = 0.95 Å.

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. |

In our ongoing investigation on the synthesis, structures and properties of new coordination polymers based on zinc(II) halides and N-donor ligands (Bhosekar et al. 2007), we have startet systematic investigation of their thermal behavior because we have demonstrated that new ligand-deficient coordination polymers can be conveniently prepared by thermal decompisition of suitable ligand-rich precursur compounds (Näther et al. 2003; Näther & Jess, 2006). In further investigations we have reacted zinc(II) bromine with 2,2'-bipyridyldisulfide (dpds). In this reaction the title chelate-complex has been formed by accident.
The versatile coordination properties of dpds enables a series of different chelate-complexes and coordination polymers. It can act in N,N'-bidentate (Kinoshita et al., 2003; Kadooka et al. 1976 & Pickardtet al. 2005) or bridging (Kubo et al. 1998 & Kinoshita et al. 2003) coordination modes toward many metals. When dpds is connected to the metal atom as a chelate ligand, a seven-membered ring is formed.
The title compound is isotypic to that of the corresponding chloride compound reported by Pickardt et al. in 2005. In the crystal structure the coordination geometry about the Zn(II) ion is almost tetrahedral with bonds being formed to two bromine ions and the two pyridyl nitrogen atoms of a single dpds ligand (Fig. 1). These latter interactions result in the formation of a seven-membered chelate ring. As usual for this type of complexes, the disulfide group does not participate in zinc-coordination. Moreover the chelate-complexes form infinite weak C—H···Br intermolecular hydrogen bonded chains along the [0 1 0] direction (C12—H12: 0.95 Å, H12···Br2i: 2.84 (2) Å, C12···Br2i: 3.74 (3), C12—H12···Bri: 160 °, see Fig. 2). The Zn—Br and Zn—N distances are in the range of 2.3664 (10)–2.3897 (10) and 2.042 (5)–2.091 (5) Å. The angles at Zn(II) range from 100.99 (15) to 119.06 (4)°, the largest being Br—Zn—Br (Tab. 1). The structural parameters in the dpds molecule are quite regular. In particular the C—S bond, 1.784 (7)–1.783 (6) Å, is in good agreement with those expected for C(sp2)—S bonds (1.77 Å). The S—S bond length, 2.050 (3) Å, is somewhat longer than that found in the structure of the free ligand, 2.016 (2) Å (Raghavan & Seff, 1977).
