In the title compound, [Sr(C10H15)2(C10H8N2)], the Sr—N distances are 2.624 (3) and 2.676 (3) Å, the Sr⋯Cp ring centroid distances are 2.571 and 2.561 Å and the N—C—C—N torsion angle in the bipyridine ligand is −2.2 (4)°. Inter­estingly, the bipyridine ligand is tilted. The angle between the plane defined by the Sr atom and the two bipyridyl N atoms and the plane defined by the 12 atoms of the bipyridine ligand is 10.7 (1)°.

Supporting information


Comment top

In Cp*2Sr(bipy) the Cp* rings are completely staggered (see Fig. 1). Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the rings defined by C1—C5 and C6—C10 respectively. The two pyridine rings in the bipyridine ligand are almost coplanar (the N—C—C—N torsion angle is 2.2 (4)°). The least squares plane formed by the 12 atoms of the pyridine ring is tilted 10.7° relative to the plane formed by Sr,N1, and N2. This is larger than the equivalent angle in any other Cp*2M(bipy) in the Cambridge Structural Database (Allen, 2002). The closest is 5.1° in [Cp*2Yb(bipy)][Cp*2YbCl2] (Schultz et al. 2002). The reason for this tilting is unclear as the Sr is d0 and therefore electronic effects should be minor. At the same time it is unclear what steric reason could lead to this tilt.

Experimental top

Cp*2Sr(bipy) was prepared according to literature procedures (Burns and Andersen, 1987)

Refinement top

All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. Hydrogen atoms were fixed based on the expected geometry of the carbon atoms to which they were attached.

Refinement. Refinement using reflections with F2 > 3.0 σ(F2). The weighted R-factor (wR), goodness of fit (S) and R-factor (gt) are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F. The threshold expression of F2 > 3.0 σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factor (gt).
