The title complex, [Fe(C19H27N10)](ClO4)3·2H2O, is a new polymorph of an iron(II) Schiff base complex of tris(2-aminoethyl)methylammonium with imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde. The octahedral FeII atom is bound to three facial imidazole N atoms with average Fe—Nimidazole and Fe—Nimine bond distances of 1.963 (5) and 1.951 (5) Å, respectively. The central N atom of the tripodal ligand is outside the bonding distance at 3.92 Å. The crystal packing is stabilized by the hydrogen-bonding interactions between the two water molecules (acceptor) and two of the three imidazole NH groups (donor). The third imidazole NH group (donor) forms a hydrogen bond to one of the three perchlorate counter-ions (acceptor).

Complex (I) was synthesized as previously described (Brewer et al., 2005) and was recrystallized from methanol solution in the presence of equimolal potassium perchlorate. The resulting crystals were analyzed by X-ray diffraction.
The positional parameters of the water-bound H atoms were refined with Uiso(H) = 1.17–1.49Ueq(C,N); see Table 1 for distances. The remaining H atoms were included in the riding model approximation with N—H = 0.88Å and C—H = 0.95 to 0.99 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.17–1.49Ueq(C,N).
Iron(II) and iron(III) Schiff base complexes of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) with imidazole carboxaldehyde have displayed spin crossover behavior (Brewer et al., 2006). Further, it has been demonstrated that the distance between the Fe atom and the central tren-N atom, Nap, is an indicator of spin-state (Brewer et al., 2006). Shorter distances correlate with high spin and longer distances with low spin. Quarternization of Nap, as observed in the title complex, (I), results in an elongated Fe—Nap distance due to both the conformation of the Nap atom (inverted away from the Fe atom) and the repulsive forces between the positively charged atoms (Brewer et al., 2005). Recently, it was shown that (I), without the methyl group on Nap, could serve as a bidentate hydrogen bond donor to the perchlorate anion of potassium perchlorate using the adjacent imidazole-NH and imine-CH H atoms to give supramolecular complexes (Brewer et al., 2007). Since the present molecule possesses this same structural feature, the reaction of it with potassium perchlorate was investigated. The reaction did not yield the desired product but gave (I) as a polymorph (Brewer et al., 2007). The structure of the iron cation differs from the original report in that the three arms of the ligand are not identical. In addition, the hydrogen bonding interactions with coordinated water and perchlorate are significantly different. Investigation of these effects on the spin crossover process and reactivity of the complex will be aided by the structural characterization of this new polymorph. In view of the importance of the spin crossover phenomenom and supramolecular systems, the present paper reports the
of (I) (Fig. 1).The octahedral iron(II) atom is bound to three facial imidazole-N atoms whose average Fe–N bond distances for the imidazole- and imine-N atoms are 1.963 (5)Å and 1.951 (5) Å, respectively. The central N atom of the tripodal ligand is outside the bonding distance at 3.92 Å. Crystal packing is stabilized by the hydrogen bonding interactions between the two water molecules (acceptor) and two of the three imidazole NH groups (donor). The third imidazole NH group (donor) hydrogen bonds to one of the three perchlorate counterions (acceptor) (Table 1 & Fig. 2).

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. |

Iron(II) and iron(III) Schiff base complexes of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) with imidazole carboxaldehyde have displayed spin crossover behavior (Brewer et al., 2006). Further, it has been demonstrated that the distance between the Fe atom and the central tren-N atom, Nap, is an indicator of spin-state (Brewer et al., 2006). Shorter distances correlate with high spin and longer distances with low spin. Quarternization of Nap, as observed in the title complex, (I), results in an elongated Fe—Nap distance due to both the conformation of the Nap atom (inverted away from the Fe atom) and the repulsive forces between the positively charged atoms (Brewer et al., 2005). Recently, it was shown that (I), without the methyl group on Nap, could serve as a bidentate hydrogen bond donor to the perchlorate anion of potassium perchlorate using the adjacent imidazole-NH and imine-CH H atoms to give supramolecular complexes (Brewer et al., 2007). Since the present molecule possesses this same structural feature, the reaction of it with potassium perchlorate was investigated. The reaction did not yield the desired product but gave (I) as a polymorph (Brewer et al., 2007). The structure of the iron cation differs from the original report in that the three arms of the ligand are not identical. In addition, the hydrogen bonding interactions with coordinated water and perchlorate are significantly different. Investigation of these effects on the spin crossover process and reactivity of the complex will be aided by the structural characterization of this new polymorph. In view of the importance of the spin crossover phenomenom and supramolecular systems, the present paper reports the crystal structure of (I) (Fig. 1).
The octahedral iron(II) atom is bound to three facial imidazole-N atoms whose average Fe–N bond distances for the imidazole- and imine-N atoms are 1.963 (5)Å and 1.951 (5) Å, respectively. The central N atom of the tripodal ligand is outside the bonding distance at 3.92 Å. Crystal packing is stabilized by the hydrogen bonding interactions between the two water molecules (acceptor) and two of the three imidazole NH groups (donor). The third imidazole NH group (donor) hydrogen bonds to one of the three perchlorate counterions (acceptor) (Table 1 & Fig. 2).
