Abstract top

In the dinuclear centrosymmetric title complex, [Hg2Br4(C17H13N5O2)2]·2C3H7NO, the HgII atom is coordinated by two Br atoms and two N atoms from two different ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The solvent molecule is linked to the 28-atom ring by two hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with microporous is currently of great interest because of their interesting structures and potential applications. So far, some interesting microporous MOFs have been documented (Chae et al. 2004, and references cited therein). One of the popular strategies to fabricate such compounds is to design the rigid ligands which have the ability to bridge the metal centers with big ring by utilizing their coordination sites. The rigid conjugated clamp-like multi-pyridine ligand N,N'-bis(pyridin-3-yl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide has been known as a good candidate in the construction of MOFs with big ring (Qin et al. 2003; Baer et al. 2002). In this work, we selected this ligand as linker, generating a new coordination complex, [HgIIBr2(C17N5O2)](DMF), (I), which is reported here. In compound (I) each HgII atom is four-coordinated by two N atoms from two ligands and two Br atoms in a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere (Fig. 1). The two HgII atoms are bridged with two N,N'-bis(pyridin-3-yl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide ligands to form a microporous MOFs with 28-number ring. The neighbouring units are linked by the interactions to form a two-dimensional network (Fig. 2) and hydrogen bonds arising between the DMF and N,N'-bis(pyridin-3-yl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide ligand (Table 2) complete the structure.

Experimental top

The ligand N,N'-bis(pyridin-3-yl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide (0.05 mmol, 0.016 g) in DMF (5 ml) was added dropwise to a solution of HgBr2 (0.1 mmol, 0.036 g) in methanol (3 ml). The precipitate was filtered and the resulting solution was allowed to stand at room temperature in the dark. After one week good quality colorless crystals were obtained and dried in air.

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.
