(Received 21 July 2008; accepted 3 September 2008; online 11 October 2008)

The title compound, trans-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)2](CF3SO3)2 (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, C10H8N2), crystallized from the decomposition of an aged aqueous solution of a dimeric complex of cis-Ru(bpy)2 in 0.1 M triflic acid. The RuII ion is located on a crystallographic inversion center and exhibits a distorted octa­hedral coordination with equivalent ligands trans to each other. The Ru—O distance is 2.1053 (16) Å and the Ru—N distances are 2.0727 (17) and 2.0739 (17) Å. The bpy ligands are bent, due to inter-ligand steric inter­actions between H atoms of opposite pyridyl units across the Ru center. The crystal structure exhibits an extensive hydrogen-bonding network involving the water ligands and the trifluoromethane­sulfonate counter-ions within two-dimensional layers, although no close hydrogen-bond inter­actions exist between different layers.

Comment top

The water ligands in cis- and trans-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)2]2+ can undergo facile ligand substitution under mild reaction conditions and thus these complexes have been important synthetic precursors to derivatives of the general type [Ru(bpy)2(X)(Y)]n. Although the trans isomer is usually obtained from the photo-induced isomerization of the more common cis isomer (Durham et al., 1980; Walsh & Durham, 1982), formation of the trans isomer as a by-product in synthetic preparations involving the cis-Ru(bpy)2 moiety has also been reported (e.g. Weathers et al., 1997).

The title compound trans-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)2](CF3SO3)2, (I), was unintentionally obtained and crystallized from an acidic (0.1 M CF3SO3H) aqueous solution of [(bpy)2Ru(OMe)(pyz)Ru(bpy)2](PF6)2 (Jude et al., 2008) that was left aging in ambient conditions for several weeks. Its crystal structure is shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and detailed structural information is available herein as supplementary materials as well as in the archived CIF.

The structure of the analogous compound as a hexafluorophosphate salt, i.e. trans-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)2](PF6)2, (II), was previosuly reported (Weathers et al., 1997). In this case, the compound crystallized in the triclinic (P1) space group. The Ru—O distance of 2.116 (2) Å in the PF6- salt is similar to that reported here for the CF3SO3- analogue, and the mean Ru—N distance of 2.074 (2) Å in II is essentially identical to those observed for I. The dihedral angle between the pyridyl (C5N) ring planes in the distorted, non-planar bpy ligands is also similar in these compounds: 162.68 (12)° for II and 160.1 (1)° for I.

Another related structure was reported earlier for the oxidized/deprotonated Ru(III)-hydroxy species, trans-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)(OH)](ClO4)2 (Durham et al., 1980). This perchlorate salt, (III), crystallized in the trigonal space group (P3121). In this case, however, the sterically strained bpy ligands adopted a twisted conformation, in contrast to the bowed conformation in both I and II. Shorter Ru—N distances are exhibited by the Ru(II)-diaqua species compared to III (2.090 (3) and 2.099 (3) Å), owing to the characteristic π-backbonding involving Ru(II) and π-acceptor pyridyl ligands. Consistent with the higher Ru(III) oxidation state, however, the Ru—O bond distance is shorter in III (2.007 (3) Å).

The trans-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)2]2+ cations pack in alternating layers with the CF3SO3- anions packed between the cations. An extensive hydrogen bonding network exists within two-dimensional layers as a result of the hydrogen bonds between the water ligand molecules in the cationic complex and the sulfonate groups in the trifluoromethanesulfonate anions (Table 1 and Figure 2). However, no significant hydrogen-bond interactions are present between different layers.

Experimental top

cis-Ru(bpy)2Cl2 was prepared as described by Sullivan et al. (1978). The title compound was a product of the decomposition of [(bpy)2Ru(OMe)(pyz)Ru(bpy)2](PF6)2 (Jude et al., 2008) in a highly acidic (0.1 M CF3SO3H) aqueous solution that was kept for several weeks in a sealed clear glass jar in ambient lighting and temperature conditions. Red–orange blocks suitable for single-crystal X-ray analysis were isolated from the mixture.

Refinement top

Diffraction data for single crystals of I were collected for 2θ < 139.4° on a Bruker AXS SMART APEXII diffractometer. The structure was solved by direct methods and hydrogen atoms were included in the final refinement cycles at predicted positions, with the exception of H1A and H1B which were refined isotropically.

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 > 2σ(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.

Hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions with the exception of H1A and H1A, which were located in a difference synthesis and subsequently allowed to refine with isotropic thermal parameters.
