In the title compound, {[Ni2(C7H3NO5)2(C12H12N2)(H2O)2]·4H2O}n, two NiII ions, two tridentate pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl­ate N-oxide ligands and two coordinated water mol­ecules form centrosymmetric dinuclear units, which are further bridged by centrosymmetric 1,2-di-4-pyridylethane ligands into polymeric chains along [210]. Each NiII ion has a distorted square-pyramidal environment, with the basal plane formed by three O [Ni—O = 1.9290 (16)–1.9588 (10) Å] and one N [Ni—N = 1.9828 (18) Å] atoms and the apical position occupied by the water mol­ecule [Ni—O = 2.2643 (11) Å]. The water mol­ecules are involved in the formation of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

The complexation of metal ions by dicarboxylate acid (pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) has been extensively studied (Laine et al., 1995a,b). Owing to the unique ability of the ligand to form stable chelates with various coordination modes and its biological activity, many crystal structures have been determined. Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid N-oxide (pydco), has limited steric hindrance and weak stacking interactions and can offer possibilities to form complicated coordination polymers through polycarboxylate ligands. However, the coordination chemistry and structural properties of metal polymers containing pydco ligands have seldom been documented to date (Nathan et al., 1985; Lin et al., 2006; Wen et al., 2005). In this paper, we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound, (I).

In (I) (Fig. 1), each NiII atom is coordinated by three oxygen atoms from the carboxylato groups and one N-oxide entity from two pydco anions and one N atom from bridging 1,2-di-4-pyridylethane (bpa) ligand to form the basal plane, and further it coordinated by one apical oxygen atom from one water molecule to form a quasi-square pyramidal environment. Each carboxylato group is coordinated to the Ni atom in a monodentate fashion and the two carboxyl groups are out of coplanarity with the correspondingly linking pyridine rings, with the dihedral angles between them being ca 46° and 39°, respectively. They are very different from those in the free H2pydco, in which the carboxyl groups are found to be essentially coplanar with the pyridine rings. Owing to the monodentate coordination modes of carboxylate groups, a binuclear [Ni2(pydco)2] unit was formed. Finally, bpa ligands connect the dimeric units into polymeric zigzag chain.

The crystalline water molecules contribute to intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1), which stabilize the crystal packing.

Experimental top

Ni(AC)2 (25 mg, 0.07 mmol), H2pydco (31 mg, 0.15 mmol), bpa (19 mg, 0.09 mmol) were added in a solvent of acetonitrile, the mixture was heated for two hours under reflux. during the process stirring and influx were required. The resultant was kept at room temperature for six weeks, when single crystals were obtained.

Refinement top

C-bound H atoms were geometrically positioned (C—H 0.93-0.97 Å). The O-bound H atoms were located on a Fourier difference map with O—H 0.84-0.86 °. All H atoms were refined as riding, with Uiso(H) = 1.2-1.5Ueq of the parent atom.

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.
