-2-(3-phenoxyphenyl)propionato-
2O:O']bis[(dimethylformamide-
O)copper(II)]The title compound, [Cu2(C15H13O3)4(C3H7NO)2], is formed by the chelate coordination of four racemic fenoprofenate (fenoprofenate is 2,3-phenoxyphenyl propionate) anions and two dimethylformamide molecules to two copper(II) ions, building a paddle-wheel dinuclear molecule. The distorted square-pyramidal coordination of each CuII atom is made up of four O atoms of the four fenoprofenate units and another O atom from a dimethylformamide molecule. The two enantiomeric forms of the fenoprofenate anions are present in the complex, in an optically inactive centrosymmetric arrangement.
A 2.0 mLDMF solution containing 0.0810 g (0.150 mmol) of racemic fenoprofen calcium salthydrate (Ca(Fen)2.H2O) was added to a 3.0 ml e thanolicsolution of 0.0170 g (0.100 mmol) CuCl2.2H2O.The resulting green solution was stirred at room temperature for about one hourand reposed all over the night. Then an excess of water was added leading tothe immediate precipitation of the complex, which gradually recrystallized atroom temperature after three weeks. The bright green crystals obtained werefiltered, washed with water and air dried (Yield: 43%). Analysis calculated for C66H66Cu2N2O14:C 64.02, H 5.37, N 2.26%. Found: C 63.5, H 4.9, N, 1.7%. FTIR(cm-1): 1668 (DMF), 1614 (asym. stretch.COO), 1484 (sym. stretch. COO). UV-visible (DMF, λmax/nm): 705.
The H atoms were positionedgeometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å. H atoms bonded totertiary C atoms were refined with Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(C),while for the rest Uiso(H)=1.5Ueq(C). Additionally, the idealized H atoms from the DMF's methyl groups were allowed to ride on the immediate Catoms. The anisotropic displacements ellipsoids of atoms O13 and O33 displayeda marked elongation in the normal direction to both O—C bond directions,indicating a possible conformation disorder. It can be related with thetendency of higher values of Ueq for the outermost phenyl carbonatoms.
The position of the highest residual electron-density peak is located at 1.67 Åfrom N52.

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. |

Fenoprofen[2-(3-phenoxyphenyl)propionic acid] is a non steroidal anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic drug (Nickander et al., 1977; Brogden et al., 1977). Its crystalline structure as a pure compound is not known. The crystal structures of the inclusion complexes of β-cyclodextrin with racemic fenoprofen and its enantiomerically pure forms have been reported: β-cyclodextrin(RS)-fenoprofen clathrate hydrate, β-cyclodextrin (R)-(-)-fenoprofen clathratehydrate, and β-cyclodextrin (S)-(+)-fenoprofen clathrate hydrate (Hamilton & Chen, 1988a,1988b).
Little is known about chemical structures of fenoprofen salts and complexes. Only the crystal structures of sodium fenoprofenate dihydrate (Stephenson & Diseroad, 2000) and calcium fenoprofenate monohydrate (Zhu et al., 2001) have been reported. On the other hand, the complexes of copper(II) with other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been widely studied because they have enhanced anti-inflammatory activity and reduced gastrointestinal toxicity compared with their uncomplexed parent drugs (Weder et al., 2002).
Aiming to contribute to the knowledge of new fenoprofen coordination compounds of biological interest, we report in this paper the crystal structure of the complex Cu2(Fen)4(DMF)2(Fen: fenoprofenate anion, C15H13O3-; DMF: dimethylformamide).
Each Cu(II) ion in the dinuclear complex (Fig. 1)has four oxygen atoms from different carboxylate groups in equatorial positions, with a Cu···O range of 1.95–1.96 Å. The square pyramidal geometry is completed with an oxygen atom from the DMF molecule with a Cu—O distance of 2.1634 (39) Å. The four carboxylate bridges linking copper ions form the classical paddle-wheel type cage with a Cu···Cu distance of 2.6309 (20) Å. The intermetallic separation is in the range of reported distances for other dicopper(II) tetracarboxilates (Weder et al., 2002). The two enantiomeric forms of the fenoprofenate anion are present in the complex, in an optically inactive centrosymmetric arrangement, where atoms C12 and C32 (shown in Fig. 1) correspond to the R-enantiomer.
There are no conventional hydrogen bonds in the structure; while weak π···π and C—H···πi interactions were identified. In the case of the π···π interactions, one of them corresponds to symmetry related phenyl rings (C14—C19, centroid Cg1)with a Cg1-Cg1i distance of 3.620 (4) Å [symmetry code (i) = 1 - x, 3 - y, -z] , a dihedral angle α=0°, an a slippage angle β = 18.22° .
The other intermolecular phenyl interaction corresponds to C20—C25 (centroid Cg2) and C40—C45 (centroid Cg3)rings, the Cg2-Cg3ii distance being 4.132 (6) Å [symmetry code (ii) = 1 - x, 1/2 + y,1/2 - z], with a dihedral angle α= 22.1 (4)°, and β=23.63°.
Additionally C14—C19 and C40—C45 rings are involved in intermolecular C—H···πi interactions. The C22—H22···Cg1iii angle is 160° [symmetry code (iii) = 2 - x, 3 - y, -z] and the H22···Cg1iiidistance is 2.78 Å. The C24—H24···Cg3iv angle is 147° [symmetry code (iv) = 1 + x,y, z] and the H24···Cg3iv distance is 2.73 Å.
Although the steric demand from the benzyl groups avoids significant contact between neighbour binuclear units, the intermolecular interactions form a weak two-dimensional network parallel to the (100) plane (Fig. 2).
