Abstract top

In the title coordination polymer, {[CdI2(C13H11N3)]·0.5CH4O}n, each CdII center is four-coordinated by two N-atom donors from two 1-(4-pyridylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazole (L) ligands and two iodide anions, forming a tetrahedral coordination geometry. L ligands bridge adjacent CdII ions, generating two crystallographically independent approximately orthogonal one-dimensional chains. The methanol solvent molecule associates with one of the chains via O-H...I interactions.

Comment top

N-containing heterocyclic aromatic compounds are extensively used as bridging ligands in coordination and metallosupramolecular chemistry (Steel, 2005). In recent years, benzimidazole groups have been used to link different alkyl or aromatic groups to form a series of bi- and multi-dentate flexible ligands, which can adopt different conformations according to the different geometric requirements of the metal centers when forming complexes (Li et al., 2007). Many complexes with these ligands show unique structural topologies and interesting properties (Meng et al., 2004). Recently, Liu and co-workers synthesized a flexible bridging ligand 1-(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (L) as well as its chiral one-dimensional double helix polymer, [Ag(L)(NO3)]n (Huang et al., 2006). We herein report the crystal structure of a cadmium complex of this ligand (I).

In the molecule of (I), (Fig. 1 and 2), the bond lengths and angles (Table 1) are generally within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987). The CdII center is tetrahedrally coordinated by two N atoms from two L ligands (L = 1-(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole) and two iodide ions. In the extended structure of (I), the CdII centers are interconnected by L ligands to form two one-dimensional chains along two different directions (Fig. 3). The chain containing Cd1 is along the c direction and the other one containing Cd2 is along the b direction, making them essentially orthogonal. The methanol solvate molecules are associated with the Cd1 chains via O—H···I interactions.

Experimental top

The ligand 1-(pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (L) was synthesized according to a reported method (Li et al., 2007). The reaction of L (58 mg, 0.2 mmol), NaI (30 mg, 0.2 mmol) and Cd(ClO4)2 (31 mg, 0.1 mmol) in a solution of methanol and water (v/v = 1:1,10 ml) for a few minutes afforded a white solid, which was separated by filtration. The resulting solution was kept at room temperature. Colorless single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of the solvent after several days (yield: 40%).

Refinement top

H atoms were included in calculated positions and treated in the subsequent refinement as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 (aromatic) and 0.97 Å (methylene) and Uiso(H) = 1.2*Ueq(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.
