(Received 8 September 2008; accepted 18 September 2008; online 24 September 2008)

The title compound, [Cu(ClO4)2(C3H4N2)4], was obtained unexpectedly by the reaction of copper(II) perchlorate hexa­hydrate with equimolar amounts of 1-chloro-1-nitro-2,2,2-tripyrazolylethane in methanol solution. The crystal structure comprises octa­hedrally coordinated Cu2+ ions, located on an inversion centre, with four pyrazole ligands in the equatorial plane. The average Cu—N distance is 2.000 (1) Å. Two perchlorate ions are coordinated to copper in trans positions [Cu—O = 2.4163 (11) Å].

Comment top

Today it is generally recognized that the classical "noncoordinating" anions such as ClO4-, BF4- or PF6- can coordinate to metal ions from all regions of the periodic table (Strauss, 1993; Rosenthal, 1973; Gowda et al. , 1984). In the course of an investigation on the coordination chemistry of various azolyl-nitrochloroalkanes (Zapol'skii & Kaufmann, 2008), we studied the reaction of copper(II) perchlorate hexahydrate with equimolar amounts of 1-chloro-1-nitro-2,2,2-tris(pyrazolyl)ethane, Cl(NO2)CH—C(C3H3N2)3, in methanol solution. Quite unexpectedly, complete degradation of the starting material took place during the course of this reaction. Direct crystallization from the concentrated reaction mixture afforded dark blue single-crystals. An X-ray structure determination revealed the presence of the title compound, trans-bis(perchlorato)-tetrakis(pyrazole)copper(II). The formation of free pyrazol can only be explained by a solvolytic degradation of the starting material. This degradation must take place on a large extent as the isolated yield of the title compound was 64%. The complex trans-bis(perchlorato)-tetrakis(pyrazole)copper(II) has been mentioned three times before in the earlier literature, but structural characterization was lacking until now. Reedijk (1969) first decribed the preparation of the title compound by direct treatment of copper perchlorate with pyrazole. The compound was characterized and identified by elemental analysis and physical measurements. Infrared spectroscopy evidently showed coordination of the perchlorate anions to the central copper(2+) ion. This was now confirmed by the present X-ray diffraction study. The structure of the title compound is shown below. Dimensions are available in the archived CIF. In the solid state, the title compound comprises octahedral molecules in which the central Cu2+ ion is surrounded by four neutral pyrazole ligand in the equatorial plane. The average Cu—N distance is 2.000 (1) Å. Two perchlorate ions are coordinated to copper in the trans positions (Cu—O 2.4163 (11) Å).

It would be much more useful to readers if the "Related literature" section had some kind of simple sub-division, so that, instead of just "For related literature, see···" it said, for example, "For general background, see···.

Experimental top

The title compound was obtained as an unexpected product from a reaction of copper(II) perchlorate hexahydrate with equimolar amounts of 1-chloro-1-nitro-2,2,2-tris(pyrazolyl)ethane, Cl(NO2)CH—C(C3H3N2)3, in methanol solution. Solid 1-chloro-1-nitro-2,2,2-tris(pyrazolyl)ethane (0.56 g) was added to a solution of Cu(ClO4)2 x 6H2O in methanol (50 ml) and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 h. The solution was concentrated under vacuum to a total volume of ca 15 ml and allowed to stand undisturbed at room temperature. After several days, dark blue single-crystals of the title compound were obtained in 64% yield (0.45 g, based on Cu(ClO4)2 x 6H2O). Anal. calcd for C12H16Cl2CuN8O8 (534.75 g mol-1): C 26.85, H 3.04; found: C 26.11, H 3.18%.

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.
