(Received 25 June 2009; accepted 11 July 2009; online 18 July 2009)

The title compound, [Co(C20H14N2O2)(C5H5N)2]ClO4 or [Co(salophen)(py)2]ClO4, where salophen is o-phenyl­enebis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolate and py is pyridine, contains a six-coordinate mononuclear cobalt(III) atom. The two phenolic O atoms and the two imine N atoms are located in cis positions. There are two pyridine mol­ecules attached to the metal atom, filling the axial sites with a mutually perpendicular disposition of the pyridine planes [86.11 (5)°]. The Co complexes are stacked in layers parallel to (100). Coherence of the structure is provided by a variety of C—H⋯O interactions between the complexes and the perchlor­ate counter anion.

Comment top

Transition metal Schiff-base complexes with the tetradentate ligand configuration N2O2 have been extensively studied (Yamada et al., 1999; Schenk et al., 2007). Some of these complexes have interesting applications, e.g., their ability to reversibly bind oxygen, and their use in catalysis for oxygenation and oxidation reactions of organic compounds (Nishinaga et al., 1980; Park et al., 1998; Speiser et al., 1995). Among these metal complexes, cobalt(III) Schiff base complexes with two amines in axial positions have especially attracted interest due to their ability as antimicrobial agents (Kumar et al., 2009; Miodragović et al., 2006; Mishra et al., 2008). The synthesis and reactivity of these complexes have also been playing an important part in the development of coordination chemistry. In this context, we herein report the synthesis and structure of the title compound, [Co(salophen)(py)2]ClO4, (I), and make a brief comparison with reported structures.

As illustrated in Fig. 1, compound (I) is the perchlorate salt of a mononuclear cobalt(III) complex cation. Bond distances and angles are given in the supplementary materials. The Schiff base ligand acts as a tetradentate ligand. The coordination polyhedron about Co is approximately octahedral, with a point group symmetry close to Cs. The three trans angles at the Co(III) centre are close to 180° and all other angles are close to 90°, ranging from 84.41 (5)° to 95.86 (5)°. The Co–O and Co–N distances of the coordinated salophen in the equatorial plane, Co(1)–O(1) = 1.8833 (10) Å, Co(1)–O(2) = 1.8806 (10) Å, Co(1)–N(1) = 1.8947 (12) Å, Co(1)–N(2) = 1.8953 (12) Å, are comparable with the Co–O and Co–N distances found in the related complexes [CoIII(salophen)(morpholine)2]ClO4 and [CoIII(salophen)(pyrrolidine)2]ClO4, [Co–Oav = 1.8815 (2) Å, Co–Nav = 1.8925 (2) Å, Amirnasr et al., 2001], and [CoIII(salophen)(4-picoline)2]ClO4.CH2Cl2 [Co–Oav = 1.888 (3) Å, Co–Nav = 1.906 (4) Å, Khandar et al., 2007]. The salophen ligands in the title compound and in [CoIII(salophen)(4-picoline)2]ClO4.CH2Cl2 [Khandar et al., 2007] share a similar strong distortion, each having one phenolate moiety distinctly bent off from the least-squares plane of the remaining salophen ligand atoms, as is schematically shown by the chemical diagram of (I) and by the fact that in (I) the angle between the two least squares planes of phenolate O(1)—C(1)—C(2)—C(3)—C(4)—C(5)—C(6) and the rest of the salophen ligand is 25.27 (6)°. The two complexes differ however in the mutual orientations of the pyridine/picoline ligands – nearly perpendicular in (I) (interplanar angle 86.11 (5)°), but almost parallel in the picoline compound.

In the crystal structure of (I), the Co complexes are stacked in layers parallel to (100) with four layers per unit cell and Co at x = 0.107, 0.393, 0.607, and 0.823 (Fig. 2). Coherence of the structure is provided by a variety of C—H···O interactions (Table 1; contains only interactions with C—H···O angles > 110°) and by π-π stacking between symmetry equivalent pairs of pyridine rings N(4) through C(30) (centroid–centroid distance 3.652 (1) Å, ring–ring dihedral angle 10.5°, ring slippage 0.51 Å, shortest interatomic distances C30–C30(-x,y,1/2 - z) = 3.428 (3) Å and N4–C29(-x,y,1/2 - z) = 3.534 (2) Å).

Experimental top

To a stirring solution of Co(CH3COO)2.4H2O (0.125 g, 0.5 mmol) in methanol (25 ml) was added an equimolar of salophen (0.158 g, 0.5 mmol). The red solution turned brown immediately upon the formation of [CoII(salophen)] complex. To this solution was added 4 mmol of pyridine, and air was bubbled through the reaction mixture for about 3 h. To the resulting brown solution was then added 0.5 mmol (0.0615 g) of NaClO4and stirred for 5 minutes. Brown crystals of the complex suitable for X-ray crystallography were obtained after three days by slow evaporation of the methanol. The crystals were filtered off and washed with a small amount of cold methanol and dried under vacuum. Yield: 80%.

Refinement top

All H atoms attached to C atoms were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.95Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq.

Experimental. Thin prisms from methanol. Bruker Kappa APEXII CCD diffractometer, full-sphere data collection. The temperature of 200 K was selected because crystals cracked at 100 K.

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.
