(Received 18 July 2010; accepted 9 August 2010; online 18 August 2010)

In the title copper(II) salt, [Cu(C6H6N4)2(C2H6OS)2](BF4)2, the Jahn–Teller distorted octa­hedral coordination sphere of copper is formed from four 2,2′-bi-1H-imidazole N atoms and two dimethyl sulfoxide O atoms. The Cu atom lies on a center of inversion. N—H⋯O and N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds give rise to a one-dimensional structure. The BF4− anion is disordered over two sites in a 0.671 (10):0.329 (10) ratio.

Comment top

Supramolecular complexes containing H2biim have been applied widely in molecular catalysis, photoelectric conversion materials and molecular recognition (Ding et al., 2005) The ligand of H2biim has been widely studied and applied because of the diversity of their coordination and the strong ability to form hydrogen bonds as a multi-proton donor. The utilization of the coordination bonds of a transition metal ion, intermolecular hydrogen bonds and πi-πi packing interactions help to control the molecular arrangement (Burrows, 2004; Dai et al., 2009). We focus on the synthesis of the biimidazole-metal complexes. Here we report a new complex [Cu(H2biim)2(DMSO)2](BF4)2 (1). Similar complexes {[Cu(H2biim)2(H2O)](SiF6)}.H2O (2), [Cu(H2biim)2](ClO4)2.2DMSO (Jin et al.,2010) and [Cd(H2biim)3](SiF6)(BF4)2.6EtOH (Gruia et al.,2007) will be compared here.

The title complex is composed of [Cu(H2biim)2(DMSO)2]2+ and two free BF4- anions. Cu(II) atom is in the center of Jahn-Teller elongated octahedron. The equatorial positions are occupied by four nitrogen atoms of two bidentate H2biim molecules, while the axial positions are occupied by O atoms from two DMSO (Fig. 1). The [Cu(H2biim)2(DMSO)2]2+ unit stacks along the b axis to form a step-shaped infinite chain structure through πi-πi stacking and H-bonds(Fig.2).

The two identical distances Cu ··· O(DMSO) of 2.678 (2)Å are in the range of Cu—O coordination bond (from 2.522Å to 2.724 Å) (Tao et al., 2002). The two identical Cu—N distances of 2.016 (2)Å are slightly shorter than those in [Cu(H2biim)2](ClO4)2.2DMSO [2.021 (2)Å and 2.018 (2) Å]. In the title complex there exist two types of hydrogen bonds, one is N—H···O formed between N—H group of the H2biim and oxygen atom of DMSO, the other is N—H···F formed between N—H group of H2biim and fluorine atom of BF4-. The DMSO molecule and BF4- anion are located at both sides of the cation to form hydrogen bonds mentioned above. The face-to-face distance between the immidazole rings is 3.43Å with the dihedral angle of 3.718°, which suggests the existence of significant πi-πi interactions between them. There is a weak interaction Cu···SDMSO(3.458 Å) in complex (1).

The solvent plays an important role in the reaction of metal salt with 2,2'-bimidazole. Not only the configuration of the anions but also the coordination geometry of the cations are affected by the solvent. Complex 1 was prepared in the mixed solvent of ethanol and DMSO by the reaction of 2,2'- bimidazole with copper tetrafluoroborate with molar ratio 3:1. However, the ratio of ligand and metal in the cation [Cu(H2biim)2(DMSO)2]2+ of complex 1 is not consistent with the raw molar ratio, which may be related to the selectivity of solvent DMSO. Complex 2, {[Cu(H2biim)2(H2O)]SiF6}.H2O, was prepared by the similar method of preparing (1) except using solvent water (Jin et al.,2010). Due to the different solvents, both the cation and the anion in complex (1) and complex (2) are different. It is noted that in complex (1) the anion BF4- was coming from starting material Cu(BF4)2 while in complex (2) the anion SiF62- was not, but was formed by the reaction of BF4- with glass container in water. The complex [Cd(H2biim)3](SiF6)(BF4)2.6EtOH(Gruia et al.,2007) contains mixed cations SiF6 2-and BF4-, which is related to the mixed solvent water and enthanol used in the reaction system.

The title complex is also similar to the following complexes: [Cu(H2biim)2](ClO4)2 (Aminou et al.,2004), [Cu(H2biim)2]Br2(Yang et al.,2008) and [Cu(H2biim)2](ClO4)2.2DMSO (Jin et al.,2010).

Experimental top

Cu(BF4)2.6H2O (0.1726 g, 1 mmol)dissolved in C2H5OH (5 ml) was added to a solution of H2biim (0.2010 g, 3 mmol) in C2H5OH (5 ml). The mixture was refluxed for 0.5 h, then 1 ml DMSO was added, stirring for another hour at room temperature, then filtered. Subsequent slow evaporation of the filtrate resulted in the formation of green crystals of the title complex after four weeks. Crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction were selected directly from the sample as prepared. Analysis found(percentage): C 38.08, H 3.83, N 22.19; calculated:C 37.71, H 3.90, N 21.86.

Refinement top

Metal atom centers were located from the E-maps and other non-hydrogen atoms were located in successive difference Fourier syntheses. The final refinements were performed by full matrix least-squares methods with anisotropic thermal parameters for non-hydrogen atoms on F2.

The final refinements were performed with isotropic thermal parameters. All hydrogen atoms were located in the calculated sites and included in the final refinement in the riding model approximation with displacement parameters derived from the parent atoms to which they were bonded.

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.
