2N,N')chlorido(2,2':6',2''-terpyridyl-
3N,N',N'')ruthenium(II) perchlorate ethanol monosolvate monohydrateIn the title compound, [RuCl(C15H11N3)(C12H8N2O4)]ClO4·C2H5OH·H2O, the geometry of the ClN5 coordination set around the RuII atom is close to octahedral, but distorted on account of the limited bite angles of the polypyridyl ligands. The complexes are linked by O-H
O hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl groups and the crystal lattice water molecules into chains along [110]. Face-to-face stacking interactions are formed between terpyridine ligands, with interplanar separations of 3.66 (1) and 3.42 (1) Å, and between bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid ligands, with interplanar separations of 3.65 (1) and 3.72 (1) Å. Three O atoms of the perchlorate ion are each disordered equally over two positions. The hydroxy group of the ethanol molecule is also disordered over two sites with refined occupancies of 0.794 (9) and 0.206 (9).
The precursor RuCl3(terpy) was synthesized according to Takeuchi et al. (1984). RuCl3(terpy) (345 mg, 0.08 mmol), H2(bipy-dca)H (bipy-dca = 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid, 191 mg, 0.8 mmol) and triethylamine (380 ml, 2.7 mmol) were mixed in ethanol (30 ml) and water (10 ml) and heated under reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and a small amount of black precipitate was removed by filtration. The filtrate was adjusted to pH 2 with perchloric acid (70% aqueous solution) and orange crystals were deposited over 24 h.
H atoms bound to C atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride during subsequent refinement, with C—H = 0.95 (aromatic), 0.98 (methyl) or 0.99 (methylene) Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2 (aromatic, methylene) or 1.5 (methyl) Ueq(C). H atoms bound to O atoms were positioned along the vector to the nearest hydrogen-bond acceptor with O—H = 0.85 Å, then allowed to ride with Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O). The perchlorate anion is modelled as disordered over two orientations with site occupancy 0.5. Atom O2A is common to both orientations. The Cl—O distances were restrained to a single refined value (1.395 Å), and O···O distances restrained to be 1.633 times that value, with standard uncertainty 0.01 Å for all restraints. All atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters, with the disordered O atoms restrained to approximate isotropic behaviour. The ethanol molecule is modelled as disordered over two orientations, both in suitable positions to form hydrogen bonds to a neighbouring perchlorate anion. Atoms C1S/C1T in the two orientations were constrained to lie at the same coordinates with the same displacement parameters. All non-H atoms were refined anisotropically but restrained to approximate isotropic behaviour. The site occupancy factors for the two parts were constrained to sum to unity; the refined values are 0.794 (9):0.206 (9). The largest peak in the difference density lies close to the disordered ethanol molecule.

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. |

Complexes of RuII with polypyridyl ligands are of interest on account of their photophysical and photochemical properties (Kalyanasundaram, 1982; Juris et al., 1988). Recent work in the area of the catalysis of water oxidation has indicated the utility of single-site Ru complexes (Concepcion et al., 2008). The next step towards realising artificial photosynthesis is to anchor these systems chemically to electrode materials. The title complex is intended to embody both required aspects: hydrolysis will result in replacement of the chloride ligand by hydroxide (the substrate of reaction), while the decorating carboxylate groups can be used as functionalities for linking the complex to surfaces.
