2-aqua-aqua(
3-3,5-dinitrosalicylato)barium(II)] monohydrate]In the title coordination polymer, {[Ba(C7H2N2O7)(H2O)2]·H2O}n, the BaII atom is ten-coordinated by seven O atoms from four 3,5-dinitrosalicylatate ligands, two
2-bridging aqua ligands and one water molecule. The coordination mode is best described as a bicapped square-antiprismatic geometry. The 3,5-dinitrosalicylatate ligands bridge three Ba atoms. Centrosymmetrically related dinuclear barium units, with a Ba
Ba separation of 4.767 (5) Å, form infinite chains, which are further self-assembled into a supramolecular network through intermolecular O-H
O hydrogen-bonding interactions between O atoms of 3,5-dinitrosalicylatate ligands and water molecules.
A mixture of barium chloride (1 mmol), 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (1 mmol), NaOH (1.5 mmol) and H2O (12 ml) was placed in a 23 ml Teflon reactor, which was heated to 433 K for three days and then cooled to room temperature at a rate of 10 K h-1. The obtained crystals obtained were washed with water and dryed in air.
Carbon-bound H atoms were placed at calculated positions and were treated as riding on the parent C atoms with C—H = 0.93 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C). Water H atoms were tentatively located in difference Fourier maps and were refined with distance restraints of O–H = 0.84 Å and H···H = 1.39 Å, each within a standard deviation of 0.01 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O)

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 the structural investigation of 3,5-dinitrosalicylatato complexes, it has been found that the 3,5-dinitrosalicylatato moiety functions as a multidentate ligand (Song et al., 2007) with versatile binding and coordination modes. In this paper, we report the crystal structure of the title compound, (I), a new Ba complex obtained by the reaction of 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid and barium chloride in alkaline aqueous solution.
As illustrated in Figure 1, the BaII atom displays a bicapped square antiprismatic coordination environment, defined by seven O atoms from four 3,5-dinitrosalicylatato ligands, two µ2-bridging aqua ligands and one water molecule. The 3,5-dinitrosalicylatato ligands link barium ions to form infinite chains, which are further self-assembled into a supramolecular network through intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonding interactions (Table 1) involving the uncoordinating water molecules, coordinating water molecules as donors and O atoms of 3,5-dinitrosalicylatato ligands as acceptors (Fig. 2).
