Bis(4-aminopyridinium) bis(oxalato-[kappa]2O,O')cuprate(II) dihydrate

Z.-C. Pan, K.-L. Zhang and S. W. Ng

Abstract top

The CuII atom in the title salt, (C5H7N2)2[Cu(C2O4)2]·2H2O, is located on a center of inversion and is chelated by two oxalate groups in a square-planar coordination geometry. The cation, anion and water molecules interact through hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network.

Comment top

There are many crystallographic studies of coordination compounds of oxalic acid (Cambridge Structural Database, Version 5.28, Nov. 2006). The copper(II) center in the title compound shows square-planar coordination (Table 1); the cations, anions and lattice water molecules interact through hydrogen bonds (Table 2) to give rise to a three-dimensional network motif.

Related literature top

See Geiser et al. (1987) for the square-planar pyridinium dioxalatocuprate oxalic acid co-crystal. See Sun et al. (2004) for 2,6-bis(4'-pyridyl-1'-pyridinium)pyrazine bis(bis(oxalato)cuprate, which is also square planar. In bis(2-aminoanilinium) bis(oxalato)cuprate, the amino groups coordinate to the metal atom, which exhibits an octahedral coordination (Keene et al., 2003).

Experimental top

Potassium oxalate monohydrate (0.036 g, 0.2 mmol) dissolved in water (5 ml) was reacted with copper nitrate trihydrate (0.048 g, 0.2 mmol) in water (5 ml). To this solution was added 4-C5H4N–NH–C(O)–C(O)–NH–4–C5H4N (0.048 g, 0.2 mmol) dissolved in methanol (15 ml). Blue crystals separated after a few days in 60% yield. CH&N elemental analysis. Calc. for C14H18CuN4O10: C 36.09, H 3.89, N 12.02%. Found: C 36.43, H 3.74, N 12.18%.

Refinement top

The carbon-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions and were allowed to ride on the parent atoms. The oxygen- and nitrogen-bound H atoms were refined with a distance restraint O–H = N–H = 0.85±0.01 Å. Their temperature factors were freely refined.
