Abstract top

In the hydrothermally synthesized title compound, [Ce(C5H3N2O2)(C2O4)(H2O)2]n, the CeIII ion is coordinated by four O atoms from two different oxalate ligands, three O atoms from two symmetry-related pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands, two O atoms from two water melecules and one N atom from a pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligand in a distorted bicapped square-antiprismatic coordination geometry. The oxalate and pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands bridge the CeIII ions, forming a two-dimensional structure. In addition, intermolecular O-H...O and O-H...N hydrogen bonds connect the two-dimensional structure into a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

Rare metal coordination polymers of one-, two- and three-dimensional extended frameworks are an attractive research area because of the diverse structures available (Zheng, 2002; Eliseeva et al., 2004). Pyrazine-2,3-dicaboxylic acid is a good ligand with a versatitle coordination mode, which is widely used in self-assembled polymeric coordination synthesis (Zou et al., 1999; Wang et al., 2007). The title compound, [Ce(C5H3N2O2)(C2O4)(H2O)2]n, was obtained unintentionally as the harvested product of the hydrothermal reaction of pyrazine-2,3-dicaboxylic acid and Ce2(C2O4)3.10H2O. We report here the crystal structure of the title compound, a 2-D polymeric structure consisting of pyrazine-2-dicaboxylate and oxalate ligands.

The coordination environment of the CeIII ion can be described as a distorted bicapped square-antiprism, in which the CeIII ion is ten-coordinated by four oxygen atoms from two different oxalate ligands, three oxygen atoms from two different pyrazine -2-carboxylic acid ligands, two oxygen atoms from two water molecules, and one nitrogen atom from a pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligand, as shown in the Fig. 1. The oxalate ligands and pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands bridge CeIII ions to form a two-dimensional structure. The Ce—O bond lengths range from 2.506 (2) to 2.897 (3) Å. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O—H···O and O—H···N hydrogen bonds connect the two-dimensional structure into a three dimensional network.

Experimental top

Colorless block-shaped crystals of the title compound were obtained by a hydrothermal reaction of Ce2(C2O4)3.10H2O (0.10 mmol, 0.0710 g), pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid (0.10 mmol, 0.0168 g) and deionized water (15 ml) in a 23 ml teflon-lined reaction vesset at 423 K for 120 h followed by slow cooling to room temperature (yield 77% based on initial input of pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid).

Refinement top

H atoms were included in calculated positions and refined in a riding-model approximation with O—H = 0.85 Å, C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,O).

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.
