Tetra-[mu]-acetato-[kappa]8O:O'-bis{[2-(m-tolylamino)pyridine-[kappa]N]copper(II)}

Abstract top

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu2(C2H3O2)4(C12H12N2)2], the binuclear molecule lies about a center of inversion; the four acetate groups each bridge a pair of CuII atoms. The coordination of the metal atom is distorted square-pyramidal, with the bonding O atoms comprising a square basal plane and the coordinating N atom of the N-heterocycle occupying the apical position. The pyridine ring is twisted with respect to the benzene ring at a dihedral angle of 45.68 (16)°. Intramolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonding is present between the imino and carboxy groups.

Related literature top

There are many examples of tetrakisacetatobis[(substituted pyridine)copper] complexes. For examples of 2-aminopyridyl derivatives, see: Barquín et al. (2004); Seco et al. (2004); Sieroń (2004).

Experimental top

Copper acetate (0.1 g, 0.5 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (5 ml). The solution was mixed with a solution of 3-tolylamino-2-pyridine (0.2 g, 1.1 mmol) dissolved in acetonitrile (15 ml). The green precipitate that formed was recrystallized from acetonitrile.

Refinement top

Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C–H 0.93–0.96 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–1.5U(C). The amino H-atom was similarly treated.
