-4,4',6,6'-tetrachloro-2,2'-(piperazine-1,4-diyldimethylene)diphenolato]dicopper(II)In the centrosymmetric dinuclear CuII title complex, [Cu2(C18H16Cl4N2O2)2], the CuII atom adopts a square-pyramidal geometry with a tetradentate ligand in the basal plane. The apical site is occupied by a phenolate O atom from an adjacent ligand, forming a dimer. The molecular structure is stabilized by intramolecular C-H
O and C-H
Cl hydrogen bonds.
H2Cl2bpi (0.109 g, 0.25 mmol) was dissolved in 30 ml hot chloroform. Then 30 ml of a methanol solution of copper acetate monohydrate (0.0499 g, 0.25 mmol) were added to this solution. The mixture was stirred for 20 min at 340 K. After a few days at room temperature, dark-green crystals of (I) were obtained. Yield 24.4%. Analysis calculated for C36H32Cl8Cu2N4O4: C 43.44, H 3.24, N 5.63%; found: C 43.05, H 3.22, N 5.53%.
All H atoms were placed at idealized positions and refined as a riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93–0.97Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C).

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. |

Recently, we have reported the crystal structure of tetrachloro-2,2'-(piperazine-1,4-diyldimethylene)diphenol, H2Cl2bpi (Kubono & Yokoi, 2007). As a continuation of this work on the structural characterization of piperazinediphenol compounds, the title dinuclear CuII complex (Fig. 1) is reported here. The CuII atom has a square-pyramidal coordination geometry with the basal plane comprised of two phenolate O and two tertiary alkyl N atoms from a piperazinediphenol ligand. The apical site is occupied by a phenolate O atom from an adjacent ligand generated by inversion operation, building a centrosymmetric dimer. The Cu···Cu distance within the dimer is 3.1883 (10) Å. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings (C1–C6 and C13–C18) is 87.96 (16) °. The coordination bond lengths and angles (Table 1) are comparable to those observed in related complexes (Butcher et al., 2007; Kubono et al., 2003; Massoud et al., 2004; Weinberger et al., 2000). The molecular structure complex is stabilized by intramolecular C—H···O and C—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Table 2).
