Abstract top

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [CoCl2(C18H12N6S)], contains one half-molecule situated on a twofold rotation axis which passes through the Co and S atoms. The metal centre is in a distorted octahedral CoCl2N4 coordination with the Cl atoms in the axial positions. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C-H...Cl interactions help to establish the packing.

Comment top

Organic ligand of bis(4-pyridinyl)sulfane has been employed to construct some intriguing metal–orgainc frameworks (MOFs) (Jung et al.,1998; Ni & Vittal, 2001). Herein, we report the molecular structure of a mononuclear CoII coordination complex (I) with bis(4-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidin-2-yl)sulfane.

In compound (I), the cobalt(II) ion is six-coordinated by four N atoms in equatorial position and two Cl atoms in apical position (Fig. 1). The Co—N bond lengths are 2.102 (2) Å and 2.130 (2) Å and the Co—Cl bond distance is 2.4363 (9) Å. In the crystal, intermolecular C—H···Cl interactions help to establish the packing.

Experimental top

To a solution of CoCl2 (0.1 mmol) in MeOH (10 ml) was added a solution of bis(4-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidin-2-yl)sulfane (0.1 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 ml). The mixture was stirred for 30 min, then filtered. The mother liquid was stood at ambient temperature for two days to give the orange crystals.

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic 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.
