Abstract top

In the title compound, [Co(N3)2(H2O)4]·C14H12N2O4·2H2O, the metal complex molecule is centrosymmetric, the Co(II) ion being six-coordinated by two azide N atoms and four aqua O atoms with a trans-octahedral geometry. The zwitterionic organic molecule is also centrosymmetric. In the crystal, the components are associated into a two-dimensional network through O-H...O hydrogen bonds. Further O-H...O and O-H...N interactions give a three-dimensional structure. The free water molecule is disordered over two positions in a 0.787 (5):0.213 (5) ratio.

Comment top

The D—H···A hydrogen bonds, ranging from the strong ones involving O—H and N—H to the weak ones involving C—H, have been widely used as a putative tool for engineering organic and metal-organic solids (Braga & Grepioni, 2000; Baures et al., 2006; Maly et al., 2006). In this paper, we report the hydrogen-bonded structure of the title compound, (I), which contains a nuetral metal complex molecule, [Co(N3)2(H2O)4], and a zwitterionic dicarboxylate, 1,2-bis(4-carboxylatopyridinium)ethane(Loeb et al., 2006).

The molecular structure is shown in Fig. 1. The metal complex molecule is centrosymmetric, with the Co(II) ion being six-coordinated by two azides and four aquas with a trans-octahedral geometry.The axial Co–N distances are slightly shorter than the equatorial Co–O ones. The zwitterionic molecule is also centrosymmetric. As shown in Fig. 2, the inorganic complex molecules and the organic molecules are associated into a two-dimensional sheet along the [101] direction through O—H···O hydrogen bonds involving the coordinated aqua ligands (O3 and O4) and the carboxylate oxygen atoms (O1 and O2). Two O4 aqua ligands from different complex molecules and two O2 atoms from different organic molecules, form a hydrogen-bonded ring which can be denoted by the graph set R42(8) (Bernstein et al., 1995; Etter, 1990), and the carboxylate group forms a R22(8) hydrogen-bonded ring with two aqua ligands from the same complex molecule. The three-dimensional structure is formed via the hydrogen bonds between the disordered free water molecules (O5 and O5') and the terminal azide nitrogen (N4), the carboxylate oxygen (O2) or the coordinated water molecule (O3) (Fig. 3).

Experimental top

The crystals was synthesized using the hydrothermal method in a 23 ml Teflon-lined Parr bomb. CoCl2.6H2O (0.0238 g, 0.1 mmol), 1,2-bis(4-carboxylatopyridinium)ethane (0.0434 g, 0.1 mmol), NaN3 (0.052 g, 0.8 mmol) and distilled water (3 ml) were placed into the bomb and sealed. The bomb was then heated in a 70°C oven for 3 d and allowed to cool to room temperature. The clear colorless solution was decanted to give sheet orange crystals. Yield: 71.7%. Elemental analysis: calculated for C14H24CoN8O10: C 32.13, H 4.62, N 21.41%; found: C 32.28, H 4.79, N 21.73%. IR (KBr, ν/cm-1): 2086, 1607, 1561, 1457, 1372, 1193, 1138, 1110, 1043, 782, 686.

Refinement top

All hydrogen atoms attached to carbon atoms were placed at calculated positions and refined with the riding model using AFIX 43 and AFIX 23 instructions for aromatic C—H and secondary CH2. The water hydrogen atoms were initially located from difference Fourier maps and refined isotropically with restraints on O—H distance (0.85 Å) and H—O—H angle, and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The free water molecule is disordered over two positions with the occupancies being refined to be 0.79 (O5) and 0.21 (O5').

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.
