Abstract top

The title binuclear complex, [Cu2(C2H3O2)4(C6H9N3)2], lies on an inversion center with four acetate ligands bridging two CuII ions and two monodentate N,N-dimethylpyrazine-2-amine ligands coordinating each CuII ion via N atoms, forming slightly distorted square-pyramidal environments.

Comment top

Both acetate anions and pyrazine derivatives are useful ligands and a large number of multi-atom complexes have been synthesized with these as bridging ligands (Zhang et al., 2007; Li et al., 2003). We attempted to synthesize a mixed bridged multi-nuclear CuII complex by using acetate and N,N-dimethylpyrazine-2-amine as bridging ligands. The title complex was obtained and here we report its crystal structure, (I), Fig. 1.

The unique CuII ion is in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry with atom N1 lying at the apex. Four acetate ligands coordinate to two symmetry-related CuII atoms, with a Cu1···Cu1i separation of 2.6326 (6) Å and inversion centre lies at the middle of the Cu1···Cu1i vector (symmetry code, (i): -x + 1, -y + 1, -z + 2) resulting in the formation of a binuclear complex. The title complex is similar to a reported binuclear CuII complex (Zhang et al., 2007) except the title complex exhibits a slightly shorter Cu—N bond and a slightly longer Cu—Cu distance.

Experimental top

N,N-dimethylpyrazine-2-amine (0.0954 g, 0.0696 mmol) was dissolved in 10 ml methanol and it was added into 10 ml water solution containing copper acetate (0.1390 g, 0.696 mmol), and the mixed solution was stirred for a few minutes. The blue single crystals were obtained after the solution had been allowed to stand at room temperature for five months.

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined as riding with C—H = 0.96 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq(C)for methyl group and C—H = 0.93 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C) for pyrazinyl H atoms.

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.
