Abstract top

In the title compound, [CuZnCl2(C19H20N2O4)], the CuII ion exhibits a slightly distorted square-planar coordination geometry defined by two N atoms and two O atoms of the 6,6'-dimethoxy-2,2'-[propane-1,3-diylbis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenolate Schiff base ligand. The ZnII ion is also four-coordinated by the two phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand and by two cis-coordinated chloride anions.

Comment top

Heterometallic complexes have been intensively focused on owing to their unique physical and chemical properties (Ward et al., 2007; Ni et al., 2005 and Ni et al. 2007). In addition, these compounds exist at the active sites of many metalloenzymes and play important roles in biological systems (Karlin, 1993). Whereas, it is necessary to further widen the system of heterometallic compounds. Herein, a new heterometallic dinuclear (CuIIZnII) compound has been obtained. Its structure is depicted in the Figure 1.

Compound I is a dinuclear neutral complex with a slightly distorted planar configuration. The CuII atom is coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms from L2- ligand forming a square-planar geometry. The coordination environment of each ZnII atom is in a distorted tetrahedral geometry composed of two oxygen atoms from L2- ligand and two chlorine atoms occupying the the other two positions. The dihedral angle of two aromatic rings is 26.90 (4)°. The CuII atom and ZnII atom are connected via two bridging phenoxo oxygen atoms of L2- ligand, The bond lengths of Cu—O, Cu—N, Zn—O and Zn—Cl are normal (Gheorghe et al. 2006 and Korupoju et al., 2000).

Experimental top

The H2L ligand and complex CuL was synthesized according to the previous literature (Gheorghe et al. 2006). the synthesis method of the compound I was obtained by allowing a mixure of CuL (0.088 g, 0.2 mmol) and ZnCl2.2H2O(0.044 g, 0.2 mmol) to be stirred in the methanol solution at room temperature, cooled down to room temperature and then filtered. Suitable yellow needle-shaped crystals were obtained via slow evaporation of the filtrate at room temperature.

Refinement top

All H-atoms bound to carbon were refined using a riding model with distance C—H = 0.93 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq (C) for aromatic atoms and C—H = 0.96 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq (C) for methyl atoms. and the 'isor' order is used to restrain the C10 atom with wARP as 0.005 (Ng, 2005).

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.
