The centrosymmetric dinuclear CuII complex, [Cu2Cl4(C24H21N5O4)2], was synthesized by the reaction of CuCl2·2H2O with the tripodal ligand 2,2′-[3-(1H-imidazol-4-ylmethyl)-3-azapentane-1,5-diyl]diphthalimide (L). Each of the CuII ions is coordinated by two N atoms from the ligand, two bridging Cl atoms and one terminal Cl atom. The CuII coordination can be best be described as a transition state between four- and five-coordination, since one of the bridging Cl atoms has a much longer Cu—Cl bond distance [2.7069 (13) Å] than the other [2.2630 (12) Å]. In addition, the Cu⋯Cu distance is 3.622 (1) Å. The three-dimensional structrure is generated by N—H⋯O, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.658 (4) and 4.020 (4) Å].

The tripodal ligand L, 3-(imidazole-4-yl-methyl)-1,5-diphthalimido-3-azapentane, was synthesized by a literature method (Qi et al., 2008). The title complex was synthesized as follows: a methanol solution (3 ml) of L (36.3 mg, 0.1 mmol) was added to a CH3CN solution (2 ml) of CuCl2.2H2O (17.0 mg, 0.1 mmol). Green crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of the solution in air for several days.
All H atoms were refined using a riding model. C—H values were set to 0.93 to 0.97 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C), and N—H values were set to 0.86 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(N).

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. |

In recent years, imidazole-containing tripodal ligands have attracted much attention for their extensive use in supramolecular chemistry and new functional materials (Higa, et al., 2007; Kong et al., 2005; Katsuki, et al., 2002). Here, we synthesized a new tripodal ligand L, 3-(imidazole-4-yl-methyl)-1,5-diphthalimido-3-azapentane, and reported its CuII complex.
In this complex, the CuII ion is coordinated by two N atoms from the ligand, two bridging Cl atoms and one terminal Cl atom. The two bridging Cl atoms are quite different, the equatorial Cl atom exbits a Cu—Cl distance of 2.2630 (12) Å, while that of the axial Cl atom is much longer with 2.7069 (13) Å (Table 1). Thus, the CuII coordination can be better described as a transition state between 4 and 5 coordination. In addition, the Cu—Cu distance is about 3.622 Å. A dimer of two monomeric units bridged by two chlorido ions reveals an inversion centre in the middle of the molecule (Fig. 1). The dimers are further connected to form the three-dimensional packing by N—H···O, C—H···O, C—H···Cl hydrogen-bonds and π–π interactions involving neighbouring phthalamide rings [Cg1···Cg2(-x+2,y+1/2,-z+1/2) = 3.658 (4) and Cg1···Cg3(-x+1,y+1/2,-z+1/2 = 4.020 (4) Å where Cg1, Cg2 and Cg2 are the centroids of the N5/C17/C18/C23/C24, C18–C23 and N4/C7/C8/C13/C14 rings, respectively (Fig. 2)].
