Abstract top

In the title complex, [Ni(C27H27N7)(C3H7NO)(H2O)](C6H2N3O7)2, the NiII ion is coordinated in a slightly distorted octahedral coordination evironment by an NiN4O2 ligand set. The tris(N-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine ligand is in a tetradentate mode while a coordinated water molecule and a dimethylformamide ligand complete the coordination. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-H...O hydrogen bonds link the cation and one of the pictrate anions into four-component centrosymmetric clusters.

Comment top

We are interested in tris(2-benzimidazolyl)alkanes and their derivatives and we have previously reported the crystal structure of some related complexes (Wu et al., 2009; Wu et al., 2005). The benzimidazole core is of a wide interest because of its diverse biological activities, and it is a well known structure in medicinal chemistry (Horton et al. 2003). The asymmetric unit of the title compound consists of an [Ni(Mentb)(DMF)(H2O)] cation (Mentb = tris(N-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine and two picrate anions (Fig.1). The NiII ion is coordinated in a slightly- distorted octahedral coordination evironment by NiN4O2 ligand set. The Mentb ligand coordinates in a tetradentate mode while a coordinated water and a dimethylformamide ligand complete the coordination. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-H···O hydrogen bonds link the cation and one of the pictrate anions into four component centrosymmetric clusters (Fig. 2).

Experimental top

To a stirred solution of tris(N-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine (0.0899 g, 0.2 mmol) in hot MeOH (10 ml) was added Ni(C6H2N3O7)2 (0.0103 g, 0.2 mmol) in MeOH (5 ml). A pale green crystalline product formed rapidly. The precipitate was filtered off, washed with MeOH and absolute Et2O, and dried in vacuo. The dried precipitate was dissolved in DMF to form a pale green solution that was allowed to evaporate at room temperature. Green crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction studies were obtained after three weeks (Yield, 62%). Elemental analysis found: C, 47.79%; H, 3.82%; N, 18.58%; calcd. for C42 H40 N14 O16 Ni: C, 47.82%; H, 3.79%; N, 18.51%.

Refinement top

H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed in calculated positions and included in a riding-model approximation with C—H distances ranging from 0.95 to 0.99 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) or Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(Cmethyl). The water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined with the restraint O-H = 0.85 (2)Å.

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.
