Abstract top

In the title complex, [Mn(C22H18N2O2)Cl], the MnIII center is in a distorted square-pyramidal configuration; the basal plane is formed by the N2O2 donors of the tetradentate Schiff base dianion, with the two phenol O atoms and two imine N atoms each mutually cis. The chloride ion occupies the apical coordination site. The dihedral angle between the two outer phenolate rings of the tetradentate ligand is 18.24 (9)°. The central benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 13.71 (8) and 30.50 (8)° with the two outer phenolate rings. In the crystal structure, weak C-H...Cl interactions link the molecules into screw helices along the b direction. These helices are further connected by weak C-H...O interactions into a three-dimensional network. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C-H...[pi] interactions involving the central benzene ring.

Comment top

We have been interested in syntheses of Schiff base ligands containing oxygen and imine nitrogen atoms and their metal complexes due to their variety of applications. Manganese complexes with Schiff base ligands have numerous applications in chemistry, biology, physics and advanced materials and are used in catalysis (Dixit and Srinivasan, 1988), as models for the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II (Glatzel et al., 2004), and as single-molecule magnets (Lu et al., 2006). They also serve as models for the active sites of manganese-containing metal enzymes (Stallings et al., 1985). Recently, we reported the crystal structure of a five coordinate MnIII complex with a similar N2O2 donor Schiff base ligand, chlorido{6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-[1,2-phenylenebis(nitrilomethylidene)]diphenolato- κ4O,N,N',O'}manganese(III) monohydrate (Eltayeb et al., 2008). We report here the structure of (I), Fig. 1, a MnIII complex of a closely-related ligand.

In (I) the MnIII center is in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry coordinating through N1, N2, O1 and O2 atoms of the tetradentate Schiff base ligand in the basal plane with the two phenolic O atoms and two imine N atoms in mutually cis positions. The apical position is coordinated by the Cl- ion. The Mn—O distances [Mn1—O1 = 1.8698 (12)Å, Mn1—O2 = 1.8983 (10)Å] and Mn—N distances [Mn1—N1 = 1.9923 (12)Å, Mn1—N2 = 1.9875 (12)Å] are in the same ranges of those observed in other related MnIII complexes of N2O2 Schiff base ligands (Eltayeb et al., 2008; Habibi et al., 2007; Mitra et al., 2006). Other bond lengths and angles observed in the structure are also normal (Allen et al., 1987). The basal bond angles O1–Mn1–O2 of 92.61 (4)°, O–Mn–N [O1–Mn1–N1 = 93.07 (5)°, O2–Mn1–N2 = 89.21 (5)°] are close to 90° whereas the N–Mn–N is smaller than 90° [N1–Mn1–N2 = 82.10 (5)°]. The bond angles between the Cl- ion and the atoms in the basal plane are in the range 93.14 (4) to 99.97 (4)°, indicating a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. Coordination of the the N2O2 chelate ligand to the MnIII ion results in the formation of an essentialy planar five-membered ring (Mn1/N1/N2/C8/C13) and two six-membered rings; the Mn1/O1/N1/C1/C6/C7 ring is almost planar with the greatest deviation being 0.059 (1)Å for atom O2 whereas the Mn1/O2/N2/C14/C15/C20 ring adopts an envelope conformation with atom O2 displaced from the Mn1/N2/C14/C15/C20 plane by 0.298 (1)Å and with Cremer & Pople (1975) puckering parameters Q = 0.483 (1)°, θ = 61.0 (1)° and φ = 18.8 (2)°. These parameters are larger in values than those observed in the closely-related structure (Eltayeb et al., 2008). The dihedral angle between the two outer phenolate rings [C1–C6 and C15–C20] of the Schiff base ligand is 18.24 (9)°. The central benzene ring (C8–C13) makes dihedral angles of 13.71 (8)° and 30.50 (8)° with the two outer phenolate rings. These dihedral angles are all wider than the corresponding angles found in a closely related structure (Eltayeb et al., 2008) due to the different locations of the two methyl substituents on the phenolate rings of the Schiff base ligand.

In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), weak C—H···Cl interactions (Table 1) link the molecules into screw helices along the b direction. These helices are further connected by weak C—H···O interactions into a three-dimensional network. The crystal is further stabilized by weak C—H···π interactions (Table 1); Cg1 is the centroid of the C8–C13 benzene ring.

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized by adding 2-hydroxy-4-methylbenzaldehyde (0.546 g, 4 mmol) to a solution of o-phenylenediamine (0.216 g, 2 mmol) in ethanol 95% (30 ml). The mixture was refluxed with stirring for half an hour. Manganese chloride tetrahydrate (0.394 g, 2 mmol) in ethanol (10 ml) was then added, followed by triethylamine (0.5 ml, 3.6 mmol). The mixture was refluxed at room temperature for three hours. A brown precipitate was obtained, washed with about 5 ml ethanol, dried, and then washed with copious quantities of diethylether. Brown single crystals of the title compound suitable for x-ray structure determination were recrystallized from ethanol/methanol (2:1 v/v) by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature over two months.

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in calculated positions with d(C—H) = 0.93 Å, Uiso=1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic and CH, 0.96 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq(C) for CH3 atoms. A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups. The highest residual electron density peak is located at 0.81 Å from Cl1 and the deepest hole is located at 0.67 Å from Mn1.

Special details top

Experimental. The low-temperature data was collected with the Oxford Cyrosystem Cobra low-temperature attachment.

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.
