(Received 8 June 2010; accepted 13 June 2010; online 18 June 2010)

The title compound, [Tl(C2H6OS)6](NO3)3, consists of six dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) mol­ecules coordinated to a TlIII atom, which lies on a [\overline{3}] axis, and three nitrate anions (3. symmetry) to neutralize the charge. The coordination polyhedron around the TlIII atom is octa­hedral, defined by six O atoms of the DMSO mol­ecules. In the crystal structure, C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed. One of the nitrate groups exhibits half-occupation.

Comment top

There are some reports on coordination of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a neutral ligand to Tl(III), such as a triiodo complex [TlI3(DMSO)2] (Ma et al., 2002) and [Tl(dm4bt)2(NO3)(DMSO)] (dm4bt = 2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-bithiazole) (Notash et al., 2008). Thallium(III) can be classified as a medium-soft metal ion in contrast to the other trivalent ions of group 13, aluminium(III), gallium(III) and indium(III), which are regarded as hard from their coordination properties (Tóth & Gyõri, 1994). The title compound has a coordination number of six around the metal (Figs. 1 and 2). However, the coordination numbers 4 to 9 are observed in different thallium(III) complexes (Aghabozorg, Ramezanipour et al., 2006). Compared with [Tl(dm4bt)2(NO3)(DMSO)] and [TlI3(DMSO)2] mentioned above, in which the bond lengths of Tl(III) to O atoms of DMSO are 2.644 (7) and 2.468 (6) Å, the title compound has shorter Tl—O bonds [2.223 (2)–2.224 (2) Å]. This can be attributed to the less hindrance around the Tl centre. Also, compared with [Tl2(pydcH)3(pydc)(H2O)2] (pydcH2 = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) (Aghabozorg, Ramezanipour et al., 2006) and (pipzH2)[Tl2(pydc)2Cl4(H2O)2].4H2O (pipz = piperazine) (Aghabozorg, Ghadermazi et al., 2006), whose Tl—O bond lengths vary in the range of 2.680 (4)–3.122 (4) and 2.436 (5)–2.508 (5) Å, respectively, again the Tl—O bond lengths in the title compound are obviously shorter. As shown in Table 1, only C—H···O hydrogen bonds can be seen in the lattice. The shortest C—H···O bond is C2—H2B···O2 with the best angle.

Experimental top

To a DMSO solution of Tl(NO3)3.3H2O (1 mmol, 443 mg) was added piperazinediium pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate (3 mmol, 759 mg) prepared as literature (Aghabozorg, Ghadermazi et al., 2006). The total volume of solution was 40 ml. The colourless crystals suitable for crystallography were obtained after six months.

Refinement top

H atoms on C atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C). There is a high positive residual density of 1.97 e Å-3 near the Tl1 atom (distance 0.76 Å) due to considerable absorption effects which could not be completely corrected.
