Abstract top

In the structure of the title compound, [Co(C10H5F4O2)2(C5H5N)2], cobalt(II) forms a complex with two 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(4-fluorophenyl)butane-1,3-dionate anions and two pyridine molecules in an octahedral coordination environment, where the two dionate ligands are in equatorial positions and the two pyridine molecules in axial positions. The complex is located on a crystallographic inversion centre.

Comment top

The chelating group 1,3-diketone, widely used in coordination chemistry for a long time (Fan et al., 2007; Lu et al., 2003; Feng, 2002), has been increasingly encountered as a constituent of polydentate ligands in the context of metallo-supramolecular chemistry. In this paper, we report the crystal structure of the title compound, Co(C10H5O2F4)2(C5H5N)2. The Co(II) ion is located on a crystallographic inversion centre and is coordinated by two 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(4-fluorophenyl)butane-1,3-dione oxygen atoms and two nitrogen atoms of pyridines, forming a distorted octahedron coordination geometry (Fig. 1). The chelate fragment is planar and the both lengths imply strong conjugation in chelate rings (Table 1).

Experimental top

The ligand 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(4-fluorophenyl)butane-1,3-dione was synthesized according to the reported literature (Sloopa et al., 2002). The coordination compound was prepared according to the following procedure: a mixture of ligand (0.328 g, 1.4 mmol) and pyridine (0.111 g, 1.4 mmol), dissolved in hot acetone (20 ml) was added slowly to a solution of Co(CH3COO)2 ˙4H2O (0.174 g, 0.7 mmol) in water (10 ml). The mixture was stirred for 3 h. After filtration, the red solution was allowed to stand at room temperature. Brown block-shaped crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained in several days. C, H and N content analyses were performed on a Perkin Elmer 2400 analytical instrument. Anal. Calcd. (%) for C30H20CoF8N2O4: C, 52.72; H, 2.95; N, 4.10. Found (%): C, 53.01; H, 2.72; N, 4.20.

Refinement top

All the H atoms were placed at their idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.97 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(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.
