(Received 24 August 2010; accepted 16 September 2010; online 30 September 2010)

In the title compound, [ReBr(C12H9IN2)(CO)3], the coordination geometry of the ReI ion is a distorted fac-ReC3BrN2 octa­hedron, arising from the N,N′-bidentate ligand, a bromide ion and a facial arrangement of three carbonyl ligands. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings in the 4-iodo-N-(pyridin-2-yl­methyl­idene)aniline ligand is 46.2 (3)°. The bromide ion and its corresponding trans CO mol­ecule are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.966 (3):0.034 (3) ratio.

Comment top

In our ongoing studies on the synthesis, structural and spectroscopic characterization of transition metal complexes with diimine ligands (Dehghanpour et al., 2009a; Dehghanpour et al., 2010), here we report crystal structure of the title complex. The title complex, (I), Fig. 1, was prepared by the reaction of Re(CO)5Br with the bidentate ligand (4-iodophenyl)pyridin-2-ylmethyleneamine (Dehghanpour et al., 2009b);(Scheme I).

The rhenium atom is coordinated by the N1 pyridine and N2 imine atoms, affording a five-membered chelate ring, as well as three carbonyl carbon atoms and a bromide atom. The resulting coordination geometry can be described as distorted octahedral [the main distortion being the N1–Re1–N2 and C3–Re1–N2 angles]. The rhenium–carbonyl bond lengths do not show any significant differences and The Re–N bond lengths are similar and within the range expected for such complexes.

Experimental top

A mixture of [Re(CO)5Br] (406 mg, 1 mmol) and ligand (308 mg, 1 mmol) in dry, degassed toluene (30 cm3) was heated to reflux for 4 h under N2 to give a bright red solution. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the crude material recrystallized from CH2Cl2/hexane to give red blocks of (I). Yield: 89%. Calc. for C15H9BrIN2O3Re: C 27.37, H 1.37, N 4.26%; found: C 27.30, H 1.42, N 4.20%.

Refinement top

The H(C) atom positions were calculated and refined in isotropic approximatiom within riding model with the Uiso(H) parameters equal to 1.2 Ueq(Ci) where U(Ci) is the equivalent thermal parameters of the carbon atoms to which corresponding H atoms are bonded The Br atom is disordered over two sites in a 0.966 (3):0.034 (3) ratio; the corresponding carbonyl ligand must also be disordered in the reverse sense, but the occurancies of the minor disorder component were too small to model, so C1 and O1 were refined with full occupancies.

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.
