Abstract top

The binuclear title compound, [Cu2(CH3CO2)4(C6H5NO)], is located about a center of inversion. The CuII atoms are connected [Cu-Cu = 2.6134 (5) Å] and bridged by four acetate ligands. Their distorted octahedral coordination geometry is completed by a terminal pyridine N atom of a 3-pyridincarboxaldehyde ligand. In the crystal, the complex molecules are linked by C-H...O hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional networks lying parallel to the ab plane. These networks are linked via C-H...O hydrogen bonds involving inversion-related 3-pyridinecarboxaldehyde ligands, forming a three dimensional supramolecular architecture.

Comment top

Bridged binuclear copper(II) complexes have been the subject of continuing interest because of their magneto-structural properties. Pyridine ligands have the potential to be used in the synthesis of supramolecular materials, particularly transition metal coordination polymers. Herein, we report on the synthesis and crystal structure of the new binuclear Cu2(OAc)4L2 paddle-wheel complex with L = 3-pyridincarboxaldehyde.

The title complex (Fig. 1) is structurally similar to paddle-wheel structures of other Cu2(OAc)4L2 complexes (Aakeröy et al., 2003; Fairuz et al., 2011; Seco et al., 2004; Sieroń, 2004; Trivedi et al., 2011). The binuclear molecule lies about an inversion center. Attached to the Cu2(OAc)4 core unit there are two apical pyridine groups from 3-pyridincarboxaldehyde ligands. The Cu—O distances [which vary from 1.9625 (19) - 1.9692 (17) Å], the Cu1—N1 distance [2.189 (2) Å], and the corresponding bond angles are consistent with the structurally similar CuIIcomplexes mentioned above. Although the Cu1—Cu1i separation of 2.6134 (6) Å [symmetry code: (i) -x+1, -y+1, -z+2] is towards the lower limit, it is within the range of values reported for other CuII paddle-wheel structures (Sieroń, 2004; Asem et al., 2011).

In the crystal, the complex molecules are linked by C—H···O hydrogen bonds to form two-dimensional networks lying parallel to the ab plane (Table 1 and Fig. 2). These networks are linked via C-H···O hydrogen bonds involving inversion related 3-pyridincarboxaldehyde ligands forming a three dimensional supramolecular architecture (Table 1).

Experimental top

A mixture of 3-pyridincarboxaldehyde (0.05 g, 0.466 mmol) and Cu(CH3COO)2H2O (0.093 g, 0.466 mmol) dissolved in methanol (5 ml) was stirred for 2 h at room temperature to give a blue solution. After one week, blue crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis had been formed, which were collected by filtration [Yield: 65%]. Spectroscopic and TGA data are given in the archived CIF.

Refinement top

The C-bound H-atoms were included in calculated positions and treated as riding atoms: C-H = 0.93 and 096 Å for CH and CH3 H-atoms, respectively, with Uiso(H) = k × Ueq(parent C-atom), where k = 1.5 for CH3 H-atoms and = 1.2 for other H-atoms.

Special details top

Experimental. Spectroscopic and TGA data for the title compound: IR (KBr, cm-1): 3273, 3076, 2935, 2871, 1705, 1615, 1440, 1218, 1035, 690; TGA Calcd. for 2(C6H5NO): 37.07. Found: 37.53% (303 - 473 K).

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

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.
