In the title compound, [CoII(C2H8N2)3]3[MoV(CN)8]2·2H2O, N-H
N and N-H
O hydrogen-bonding interactions give rise to a three-dimensional network. In the crystal structure, each Mo polyhedron has a square-antiprismatic shape, while the Co complexes show distorted octahedral geometry with an occupancy of 50%. One of the Co atoms resides on a crystallographic inversion centre.
For the preparation of the title compound, all of the following procedures were carried out in the dark to avoid decomposition of (Bu3NH)3[Mo(CN)8].4H2O (Bok et al., 1975). Yellow block crystals suitable for X-ray single-crystal structure determination were grown at room temperature by slow diffusion of an aqueous solution of CoCl2.6H2O (0.3 mmol) and ethane-1,2-amine (en, 0.9 mmol) and an aqueous solution of (Bu3NH)3[Mo(CN)8].4H2O (0.2 mmol) for four weeks. The resulting crystals were collected, washed with H2O and dried in air.
All non-H atoms were refined anisotropically. The H atoms on nitrogen atoms were located from the difference Fourier maps, and the H atoms of water molecules were placed in calculated positions. The H atoms of the Co complexes were placed in calculated positions with C—H and N—H distances 0.99 Å and 0.92 Å, respectively, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N). The calculation of the H atoms for the disordered Co2 complex was possible with many FREE instructions using SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 2008). For atoms N17 and N20 the four H-atom coordinates from the difference map were fixed with AFIX 3 instructions. These N—H distances range between 0.767 and 0.968 Å. The model refinement of the Co2(en)3 complex was controlled with the programme PLATON (Spek, 2003), (LATT -1 used for model building at the start), symmetry transformation (2 - x, 1 - y, 1 - z) for some atom coordinates applied, introducing a split position for Co2 to get the complete Λ and Δ forms of the inversion related chiral complexes separated, using the information of disorder refinement from the SHELXL guide book (Müller et al., 2006).

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. |

Recently, octacyanometallates [M(CN)8]3-/4- (M = Mo and W) appear as new versatile building blocks and have been investigated extensively (Przychodzeń et al., 2006; Sieklucka et al., 2002). These species might show various geometrical structures (e.g., square antiprism, dodecahedron, bicapped trigonal prism) depending on the external environments. However, only a few examples of cobalt-octacyanometalate coordination networks have been reported until now (Willemin et al., 2003; Przychodzeń et al., 2006 and literature cited therein). In the title bimetallic compound, [CoII(en)3]3[MoV(CN)8]2.2H2O, (Fig. 1), the MoV atom is coordinated by eight CN groups with Mo—C distances ranging from 2.128 (4) to 2.179 (4) Å in a distorted square antiprism. The MoV—C bond distances are comparable to previously reported values (Withers et al., 2006; Lim et al., 2006 and literature cited therein). The geometry around atom Co1 is a distorted octahedron with (D3 symmetry) with an average Co1—N bond distance 1.972 Å and the N—Co1—N bond angles ranging from 84.34 (12)° to 176.73 (12)°. Among the two independent Co(en)3 complexes the cobalt atom Co2 resides on a crystallographic inversion centre, resulting in inversion related 50:50 disorder of the chiral Λ and Δ forms. Disorder refinement (Müller et al. 2006) was necessary to present a suitable chiral model of the complex. (Fig. 1).
Several classic intermolecular N—H···N hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2) between the non-disordered Co(en)3 and the Mo(CN)8 complexes form a complicated three-dimensional network in the structure. The disordered Co2 unit and the disordered water molecules are not considered for further (possible) hydrogen bonding contacts. An interesting example structure with two crystallographically independent Co(en)3 complexes, different vanadates and six water molecules shows an impressive number of 23 N—H···O and 13 O—H···O hydrogen bonds in the chiral space group P1 (Aschwanden et al. 1993). It may be thinkable that the title structure belongs also to a non-centrosymmetric space group (P 21), but in that case with a dominating part of centrosymmetry in data.
