The title compound, [Mn(C₃H₇NO)₆][Fe₂Cl₆O], was obtained unintentionally as a product of an attempted synthesis of heterometallic complexes with Schiff base ligands using manganese powder and FeCl₃·6H₂O as starting materials. In the [Fe₂OCl₆]²⁻ anion, the O atom and the Fe atom occupy positions with site symmetry $[\overline{3}]$ and 3, respectively, resulting in a linear Fe—O—Fe angle and a staggered conformation. The octahedrally surrounded cation (site symmetry $[\overline{3}]$ ) and the [Fe₂Cl₆O]²⁻ anion are alternately stacked along [001].

Comment top

Continuing our research on direct synthesis of bimetallic complexes with Schiff base ligands, i.e. one-pot synthesis with the use of metal powders or their oxides as starting materials (Garnovskii et al., 1999), we present here a new Mn^II/Fe^III complex, which was obtained as a by-product during the investigation of the system: Mn⁰ – FeCl₃.6H₂O – salicylic aldehyde – glycine – Et₃N – dmf (dimethylformamide).

The crystal structure of the title complex, (I), is shown in Fig. 1. Six dmf molecules coordinate to the Mn²⁺ ion forming the almost regular octahedral complex cation [Mn(dmf)₆]²⁺ [site symmetry 3; Mn1—O1 distances of 2.1736 (15) Å and O1–Mn1–O1 bond angles of 87.49 (6), 92.51 (6) and 180°]. Since the neighbouring elements Mn and Fe are difficult to distinguish by X-ray methods, a comparison of Mn^II—O and Fe^II—O bond lengths can be useful in the assignment of the correct metal to this polyhedron. The observed metal–O_dmf distances are in good agreement with those in [Mn(dmf)₆][Mo₆Br₈(NCS)₆] [2.152Å (Khutornoi et al., 2002)]. An additional argument for Mn in the cation as the correct metal, but not its Fe analogue, is the analysis of crystallographic data for 10 structures containing [Fe(dmf)₆]²⁺ (Albanati et al., 2007; Baumgartner, 1986; Li et al., 2007a,b; Lode & Krautscheid, 2000; Müller et al., 1989a,b; Qiutian et al., 1983; Silva et al., 2008; Young et al., 1989) where Fe—O bond lengths in the range of 1.99 – 2.16 Å with an average value of 2.11 Å are found. Moreover, no Fe^II complexes with a regular octahedral dmf environment have been found.

The [Fe₂OCl₆]^2- anion possesses D₃_d geometry with Fe and O atoms in special positions (3 and 3, respectively) that force the Fe—O—Fe angle to be linear and the anion to adopt a staggered conformation (Fig. 2). The Fe³⁺ atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination with an Fe1–O1S distances of 1.7758 (5) Å, an Fe1–Cl1 distance of 2.2330 (6) Å, and bond angles of 106.348 (19) and 112. 438 (17)° for Cl1–Fe1–Cl1 and Cl1–Fe1–O1S, respectively. The oxidation states (+II) and (+III) for hexa-coordinate Mn and four-coordinate Fe atoms are supported by bond-valence sum calculations [1.914 for Mn²⁺ and 3.099 for Fe³⁺ (Brown & Altermatt, 1985)].

The [Mn(dmf)₆]²⁺ cations and [Fe₂OCl₆]^2- anions are arranged in such a way that the cations and anions are arranged alternatingly along the [001] direction (Fig. 3).

The described complex (I) can be supposed as isostructural to [Mg(dmf)₆][Fe₂OCl₆] (Juang et al., 1984) but interestingly the volume of the unit cell in case of the manganese complex is ca 200 Å³ less than that of the magnesium complex.

Experimental top

Salicylic aldehyde (0.31 g, 2.5 mmol), glycine (0.19 g, 2.5 mmol) and triethylamine (0.35 mmol, 2.5 mmol) were dissolved in dimethylformamide (dmf; 25 ml) in this order, and stirred at 323 – 333 K (10 min). Then, manganese powder (0.14 g, 2.5 mmol) and FeCl₃.6H₂O (0.68 g, 2.5 mmol) were added to the hot yellow solution with stirring for 3 h, until total dissolution of manganese was observed. The resulting solution was filtered and subsequently pale pink crystals suitable for X-ray crystallography were separated after eight days at successive addition of a PrⁱOH. Yield: 0.23 g, 21.5% (per iron). Elemental analysis for C₁₈H₄₂MnFe₂N₆O₇Cl₆ (Mr= 833.92). Calcd: C, 25.93; N, 10.08; H, 5.08; Fe, 13.39; Mn, 6.59. Found: C, 26.1; N, 10.0; H, 5.0; Fe, 13.3; Mn, 6.3. IR(KBr, cm^-1): 3344(br), 2924(m), 1629(m), 1572(w), 1557(w), 1535(w), 1521(w), 1470(w), 1412(br), 1312(w), 1580(w), 1174(w), 1154(w), 1041(w), 952(w), 851(w), 689(s), 482(w), 443(w). The compound is sparingly soluble in dimethylsulfoxide (dmso), dmf, and H₂O. In the IR spectrum of (I), the band corresponding to ν(CO) in dmf is shifted to the region of longer wavelenghts (1629 cm^-1) relative to this band in the spectrum of noncoordinating dmf (1675 cm^-1).

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.
