In the centrosymmetric tetra­nuclear title compound, [Cu4I4(C10H8N2S2)2], there are two different CuI atoms with tetra­hedral coordination geometries. One is chelated by a pyridine N atom and an S-donor from one di-2-pyridyl disulfide ligand and coordinated by two I atoms, while the second CuI atom is coordinated by a pyridine-N and three I atoms. Iodine bridges between the CuI atoms form a tetra­nuclear structure.

Comment top

Polynuclear CuI compounds with luminescent properties have been designed and synthesized by reaction of CuI cations and suitable bridging ligands (Ford et al., 1999). Flexible heterocyclic ligands containing nitrogen donors can form metal complexes with considerable structural diversity and reports of CuI complexes with such ligands have increased in recent years (Caradoc-Davies & Hanton, 2003; Rath et al., 1986; Song et al., 2003; Song, Sun & Yang, 2011; Song, Sun, Yang & Yang, 2011; Song, Sun, & Yang, 2011; Su et al., 1997). di-2-pyridyl disulfide is a interesting heterocyclic ligand. A number of metal complexes of it and related ligands have been reported (Bell et al., 2000; Delgado et al., 2007; Kadooka et al., 1976; Niu et al., 2007; Wu et al., 2011). The present study details the structure of a CuI adduct of di-2-pyridyl disulfide.

The title compound, (I), is a tetranuclear complex, [Cu4I4(L)2] having crystallographically-imposed centrosymmetry (Fig. 1). In the unique ligand, S(2) and N(1) chelate to Cu(1) while N(2) coordinates to Cu(2A). Doubly-bridging I2 and triply-bridging I1 serve to complete the formation of the tetranuclear core in which each copper adopts approximately tetrahedral geometry. Cu(1) is coordinated by a pyridine N atom and an S donor from one L ligand and two iodine atoms while Cu(2) is coordinated by a pyridine N atom from the second L ligand and three iodine atoms. The bond angles around Cu(2) range from 104.38 (4) to 114.42 (5)° and are normal for a slightly distorted tetrahedral geometry while Cu(1) exists in a more distorted tetrahedral environment with the angles around Cu(1) in the range 88.58 (17) to 122.55 (7)°. All the Cu—N and Cu—S bond distances are comparable with those of other tetrameric clusters (Rath et al., 1986; Song et al., 2003; Su et al., 1997). The Cu—I bond lengths show significant differences depending on the Cu(I) environment. Cu(2) bonds to three iodine atoms with Cu—I bond distances ranging from 2.6864 (15) to 2.7623 (17) Å, while Cu(1) bonds to two iodine atoms with equivalent shorter Cu—I bond distances averaging 2.5764 (14) Å. The Cu···Cu distance of 2.6648 (18) Å is shorter than the sum of their van der Waals radii (2.83 Å), indicating the existence of Cu···Cu interactions. Such short Cu···Cu separations have been observed in some complexes such as [Cu4I4(quin)4] [2.582 (10)Å](Rath et al., 1986), [Cu4I4(MPTQ)2] [2.607 (1)Å] (Su et al., 1997), [Cu4I4(C19H36N2S2)2]n [2.734 (2)Å] (Song, Sun & Yang, 2011), [Cu4I4(C15H12N2S)2] [2.743 (1)Å] (Song et al., 2003) and [CuI(bbbm)]n [2.7683 (9)Å] (Niu et al., 2007).

The tetrameric Cu4I4 core adopts a distorted chair-like structure which is defined by three Cu—I edges from different Cu2I2 moieties: the strictly planar Cu(2)—I(1A)—Cu(2A)—I(1) unit and the non-planar Cu(1)—I(2)—Cu(2)—I(1) and symmetry-related Cu(1A)—I( A)—Cu(2A)—I(1A) units. Similar results were also found in related tetranuclear complexes (Rath et al., 1986; Song et al., 2003; Su et al., 1997).

Experimental top

The ligand di-2-pyridyl disulfide (22.0 mg, 0.1 mmol) in CHCl3 (3 ml) was added to CuI (17.8 mg, 0.1 mmol) dissolved in MeCN (5 ml). The reaction mixture was kept in the dark and allowed to evaporate slowly. Yellow block-shaped single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained in 58% yield. Analysis found: C 20.39, H 1,40, N 4.84%; calculated for C20H16Cu4I4N4S4: C 19.98, H 1.34, N 4.66%.

Refinement top

H atoms were placed in calculated positions and included as riding contributions with C—H distances of 0.94Å (aromatic H) and with Uiso= 1.2Ueq(C).

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.
