-2,5-bis[4-(2-pyridylmethylamino)phenyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole}bis[dichloridomercury(II)]
In the title centrosymmetric compound, [Hg2Cl4(C26H22N6O)2], each HgII center adopts a distorted HgN3Cl2 trigonal bipyramidal coordination geometry, formed by two pyridine N atoms, one imine N atom and two chloride anions. Within the organic ligand, the oxadiazole ring is nearly coplanar with the two benzene rings [dihedral angles = 5.9 (4) and 6.5 (4)°] and nearly perpendicular to the two pyridine rings with the same dihedral angle of 77.4 (4)°. The two organic ligands bridge two HgII ions to form the macrocyclic complex. Intermolecular N-H
Cl and N-H
N hydrogen bonding helps to stabilize the crystal structure.
2,5-Bis(4-aminophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (L1) was prepared according to the
literature method (Ren et al., 1995). A solution of L1 (2.56 g, 10 mmol) and 2-pyridylaldehyde (4 ml) in anhydrous EtOH (20 ml) was refluxed for
24 h, with HCOOH as catalyzer. After the mixture was cooled to room
temperature, the precipitated product was filtered off, washed with EtOH and
dried, yielding a light-yellow power
[2,5-bis(4-((2-pyridinyl)methyleneamino)phenyl) -1,3,4-oxadiazole] (L2). Then
the L2 was deoxidized by NaBH4 in anhydrous CH3OH (20 ml). The solvent was
removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was washed with water to
afford the ligand
[2,5-bis(4-((2-pyridinylmethyl)amino)phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole] (L) as a
yellow solid. A solution of HgCl2 (13.58 mg, 0.05 mmol) in EtOH (8 ml) was
layered onto a solution of the ligand L (21.7 mg, 0.05 mmol) in
CH2Cl2 (8 ml). Single yellow crystals of the title compound were obtained
after 7 d at room temperature.
All H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 (aromatic),
0.97 Å (methylene) and N—H = 0.91 or 0.86 Å imine groups), and refined
using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N).

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. |

Combining metal ions with oxadiazole-bridging organic ligands may result in coordination polymers with novel network connectivities (Dong et al., 2003). Our interest in understanding the relationship between the metal coordination modes with such ligands and their extended structures led us to synthesize the title HgII compound, (I).
As shown in Fig. 1, there are five primary bonds to each HgII center, three Hg—N bonds and two Hg—Cl bonds, resulting in a distorted trigonal bipyramid coordination geometry around the Hg center. Three Hg—N bond distances (Table 1) are significantly different, but all agree with those reported previously (Gallagher et al., 1999; Grupce et al., 1999). The bond angles at Hg1 atom rang from 70.81 (18)° [N4—Hg—N3] to 145.19 (16)° [N4—Hg1—Cl1]. While the ligand chelates to a Hg atom by a pyridine N and an imine N atoms, the other pyridine N atom bridges to another Hg atom to form the title binuclear macrocyclic complex with the Hg···Hg separation of 12.969 (2) Å. Within the ligand, the dihedral angles between the oxadiazole and N4-pyridine rings and between the oxadiazole and N6-pyridine rings are identical [77.4 (4)°]. Intermolecular N—H···Cl and N—H···N hydrogen bonding helps to stabilize the crystal structure (Table 2).
