-dicyanamido-nickel(II)] bis(pyridinium-4-olate)]The title compound, {[Ni(C2N3)2(H2O)2]·2C5H5NO}n, is a centrosymmetric two-dimensional coordination polymer with a layer (4,4) network structure. The asymmetric unit is compossed of an NiII atom, which sits on an inversion center, a
-1,5-bridging dicyanamide anion, a water molecule, and a free 4-hydroxypyridine molecule present in the zwitterionic pyridinium-4-olate form. The NiII atom is coordinated in a slightly distorted N4O2 octahedral geometry by four bridging dicyanamide ligands and two trans water molecules. In the crystal, the two-dimensional networks are linked via N-H
O and O-H
O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
To a methanol solution (20 mL) of nickel nitrate (0.145 g, 0.5 mmol) and 4-hydroxypyridine (0.095 g, 1.0 mmol), a water solution (5 ml) of dca (0.089 g, 1.0 mmol) was added slowly with stirring over 30 min at rt. The clear solution obtained was filtered and the filtrate left to evaporated at rt. After a few days, green single crystals were obtained (yield: 5%).
The NH and water H-atoms were located in difference electron-density maps and freely refined: N-H = 0.858 (16) Å, O-H = 0.834 (9) & 0.840 (9) Å. The C-bound H-atoms were included in calculated positions and treated as riding: C-H = 0.93 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(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. |

In recent years, coordination polymers involving dicyanamide (dca, N(CN)2) have attracted a great deal of attention, not only for their interesting extended architectures but also for their magnetic properties, especially compounds in the M(dca)2 series (Manson et al., 1998; Batten et al., 1998; Manson et al., 2001). The introduction of coligands has led to dramatic modifications of the crystal structures and magnetic properties (Batten et al., 2003; Miller et al., 2001). When 4-hydroxypyridine was used as a coligand, the title complex was obtained.
The title compound is a centrosymmetric two-dimensional coordination polymer, Fig. 1. The NiII atom, which is located on an inversion center, is six-coordinated by four N-atoms from four bridging dca ligands and two O-atoms from two water molecules, so exhibiting a distorted octahedral geometry. The Ni—N bond lengths [2.0769 (16) - 2.0785 (15) °] are comparable with those of 2.070 (2) ° found in [(EtPh3P)—Ni(dca)3] (Van der Werff et al., 2004), and 2.0715 (12) ° found in [Ni(dca)2(phen)] (Armentano et al., 2006). The coligand used, 4-hydroxypyridine, is present in the pyridinium-4-olate form and is not coordinted to the metal atom.
In the crystal structure, the µ-1,5 dca ligand links neighboring NiII atoms, forming a two-dimensional (4,4) network (Fig. 2). This resembles the situation in [Mn(dca)2(4-cyanopyridine)2]n (Dalai et al., 2002) and [Co2(dca)4(4-cyanopyridine)4]n(Du et al., 2006), but the structures are not isomorphous and here the co-ligands are coordinated to the metal atoms. However, as in the title compound, the layer-like structures are linked through hydrogen bonding interactions. In the title compound this involves the water molecules and the pyridinium-4-olate groups (Table 1).
