Abstract top

The Ni atom in the title linear supramolecular polymer, [Ni(C6H14O2PS2)2(C12H10N4)]n, exists within a trans-N2S4 octahedral donor set defined by two symmetrically coordinating dithiophosphate ligands and pyridine N atoms derived from two bridging bis(4-pyridylmethylene)diazane ligands. The Ni atom lies on a centre of inversion and the bis(4-pyridylmethylene)diazane ligand is also disposed about a centre of inversion. The chains are arranged into layers sustained by C-H...S contacts and interdigitate with neighbouring layers, forming the crystal structure.

Comment top

Interest in molecules related to the title compound (I) revolve around intriguing crystal engineering possibilities whereby different supramolecular topologies may be constructed by careful choice of organic substituents and bridging ligands (Lai & Tiekink, 2004; Chen et al., 2006; Aragoni et al., 2007). The Ni atom in (I), Fig. 1, lies on a crystallographic centre of inversion and the bis(4-pyridylmethylene)diazane molecule is similarly disposed about a centre of inversion. The Ni atom exists within an octahedral trans-N2S4 donor set defined by two symmetrically chelating dithiophosphate ligands and two trans-disposed pyridine-N atoms, Table 1. The bridging ligands lead to a linear polymer, Fig. 2, and these are arranged into layers, being connected by C—H···S contacts, Table 2 and Fig. 3. Layers interdigitate to consolidate the crystal packing, Fig. 4.

A similar coordination geometry and linear supramolecular polymer were observed in the iso-butyl derivative of (I) which was characterized crystallographically as a di-toluene solvate (Berdugo & Tiekink, 2008).

Experimental top

Compound (I) was prepared by refluxing the parent nickel dithiophosphate with bis(4-pyridylmethylene)diazane, following a literature procedure (Berdugo & Tiekink, 2008).

Refinement top

The H atoms were geometrically placed (C—H = 0.95–1.00 Å) and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methyl-C).

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.
