-sulfato]The CoII ion in the title complex, [Co(SO4)(C13H8N4)(H2O)2]n, has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination environment formed by two O atoms from two symmetry-related bridging sulfate ligands, two N atoms from a bis-chelating 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (IPL) ligand and two O atoms from coordinated water molecules. The bridging sulfate ligands connect CoII ions to form a one-dimensional chain along the b-axis direction. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-H
O, O-H
N and N-H
O hydrogen bonds link the chains into a three-dimensional network.
The title compound was prepared by hydrothermal conditions. IPL (22mg, 0.1 mmol) in an aqueous solution (10 mL) was mixed with an aqueous solution (5mL) of Co(SO4)2 (31mg, 0.12mmol). After stirring for 30 min in air, the mixture was placed into 25 mL Teflon-lined autoclave and heated at 383K for 96h. The autoclave was cooled at a rate 5° h-1. The title complex as pink crystal was collected by filtration, washed with water, and dried in air.
All H atoms attached to C atoms and N atom were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.93 Å; N-H = 0.86 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq. H atoms of water molecule were located in difference Fourier maps and included in the subsequent refinement using restraints (O-H = 0.82 (1) Å).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

A wide range of extended one-dimensional, two-dimensional or three-dimenional frameworks with different interesting structural features, resulting from coordination bonding, hydrogen bonding, aromatic π···π stacking interactions play an important role in electron-transfer processes in some biological systems (Ghosh et al., 2004). 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]-phenanthroline (IPL) is a rich conjugated molecular building block and has been employed to construct frameworks (Xiong et al., 1999). Herein, we describe the preparation and crystal structure of the title complex (I).
The CoII ion in the title complex, has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination formed by two O atoms from symmetry related bridging sulfate ligands, two N atoms from a bis-chelate IPL ligand and two O atoms from coordinated water molecules (Figure 1). The Co—N and Co—O bond lengths are not significantly different from the values observed in related complexes (Liu et al., 2008). The bridging sulfate ligands connect CoII ions into a 1-D zigzag chain parallel to [0 1 0]. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-H···O, O-H···N and N-H···O hydrogen bonds link one dimensional chains into a three dimensional network (Fig. 2). In addition, significant π···π stacking interactions with centroid to centroid distances in the range 3.465 (4)-3.548 (4)Å help stabilize the crystal structure.
