catena-Poly[[bis(pyrazine-2-carboxamide)mercury(II)]-di-[mu]-chlorido]

Abstract top

In the polymeric title compound, [HgCl2(C5H5N3O)2]n, the HgII atom (site symmetry \overline{1}) adopts a distorted trans-HgN2Cl4 octahedral coordination geometry. In the crystal, adjacent mercury ions are bridged by pairs of chloride ions, generating infinite [100] chains, and N-H...O and N-H...(N,N) hydrogen bonds help to consolidate the packing.

Comment top

The coordination chemistry of parazineamides is rich. Examples of coordination via the pyrazine N atoms, the carbonyl O atoms and the amide N atoms of the ligand in a non-, mono-, or bis-deprotonated form are known (Hausmann and Brooker, 2004; Cati & Stoeckli-Evans, 2004; Miyazaki et al. 2007) and metal complexes of the ligands have been used extensively to mimic the properties of biologically active systems. Here we synthesized the title compound, (I), and report here its crystal structure.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (I), contains one half-molecule (Fig. 1). The HgII atom is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral configuration by two N atoms from pyrazine amides and four bridging Cl atoms. The bridging function of chloro atoms leads to a one-dimensional chain structure. The Hg—Cl and Hg—N bond lengths and angles (Table 1) are within normal ranges. In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), intermolecular N—H···O and N—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 2) result in the formation of a supramolecular structure, in which they may be effective in the stabilization of the structure.

Experimental top

A solution of pyrazineamide (0.246 g, 2.0 mmol) in methanol (10 ml) was added to a solution of HgCl2 (0.272 g, 1.0 mmol) in methanol (5 ml) at room temperature. Colourless plates of (I) were obtained by slow evaporation from methanolic solution after one week (yield; 0.359 g, 69.3%).

Refinement top

All of the H atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H = 0.93 and 0.86Å for aromatic ring and NH2 hydrogen atoms respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). The largest peak and deppest hole are near to Hg (0.87 and 0.75Å respectively).

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.
