-pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylato-[tetraaquairon(II)]-
-pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylato] tetrahydrate]In the crystal structure of the title compound, {[Fe2(C7H3NO4)2(H2O)6]·4H2O}n, there are two types of coordination for the FeII atoms. One FeII atom is in a distorted octahedral N2O4 environment, with two chelating rings from the pyridinedicarboxylate ligands and two O atoms from the water molecules, while the other is in a distorted octahedral O6 environment with two O atoms from the pyridinedicarboxylate ligands and four O atoms from the water molecules. Both FeII atoms lie on crystallographic centers of symmetry. The complex possesses an infinite chain structure running along the [101] direction. These chains are interconnected by the uncoordinated water molecules through O-H
O hydrogen bonds.
A mixture of H2pydc (0.34 g, 2 mmol), KOH (0.23 g, 4 mmol) and FeSO4.7H2O (0.55 g, 2 mmol) in 15 ml of MeOH/H2O (v/v, 1:1) was sealed in a 25-ml stainless-steel reactor with a teflon liner and was heated at 453 K for 72 h under autogenous pressure. Slow cooling to room temperature yielded 0.36 g (yield 40%) of block red crystals. Anal. Calc. for C7H13NO9Fe (%): C 27.03, H 4.21, N 4.50. Found (%): C 27.14, H 4.46, N 4.36.
The H atoms were included in the riding-model approximation with C—H = 0.93 Å and O—H = 0.85 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C, O). Hydroxyl H atoms were allowed to rotate to best fit the experimental electron density.

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. |

Extended frameworks of coordination polymers based on transition metal ions and multifunctional bridging ligands are currently of great interest because of their intriguing topologies and their potential applications (Hill, 1998; Moler et al., 2001; Mitzi et al., 1995). Multi-carboxylate ligands may exhibit various coordination modes to furnish various structures. Recently, many transition metal-organic polymers constructed with multi-carboxylate ligands show varies of novel topology and potential applications in catalysis, materials chemistry and biochemistry (Zeng et al., 2003; Xu et al., 2004; Liang et al., 2001). Pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (H2pydc) has unique features because of the presence of two carboxylate groups (O donor atoms) and the pyridine ring (N donor atom), which aids to increase the dimensionality of the assembled covalent network. Therefore, it is most likely that pydc will form low symmetric structures with metals. In this paper, we report the preparation and crystal structure of a new three-dimensional supramolecular complex [Fe2(pydc)2(H2O)2].4H2O, (I).
In the complex, (I), there exist two types of coordination geometries around the Fe(II) ions. The Fe1 ions are hexacoordinated in a N2O4 environment with two chelating rings from the pydc ligands and two oxygen atoms from the water molecules. The Fe2 ions are also hexacoordinated in an O6 environment with two oxygen atoms from the pydc ligands and four oxygen atoms from the water molecules. All Fe atoms lie on a crystallographic center of symmetry and the ligand lies on a crystallographic twofold axis. A perspective view of the local coordination environments around the Fe(II) atoms of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. For Fe1 and Fe2, the bond distances of Fe—O (water oxygen), 2.071–2.100 Å, are similar with those of Fe—O (carboxylate oxygen), 2.058–2.080 Å. As presented in Fig. 2, the two kinds of geometries around Fe(II) ions are arranged alternatively to give the one-dimensional polymeric chain. Interestingly, all Fe atoms of one polymeric chain are situated on one line and the neighboring Fe(II) atoms are syn-anti carboxylato bridged with the distance of 5.423 Å. These chains are interconnected by the uncoordinated water molecules through O—H···O hydrogen-bonding interactions and form a two-dimensional layer structure. A three-dimensional supramolecular network is obtained through O—H···O hydrogen-bonding interactions in the layers.
