In the title compound, [Cu(C2H6N5)2]2(SiF6)3, the is composed of one [Cu(HL)2]3+ cation (where L is 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole) and one and a half SiF62− anions. The rather large positively charged guanazole ligand moiety promotes the low metal of 2 for the CuI atom. The compound was obtained using the electrochemical alternating-current technique starting from an ethanol–methanol solution of CuSiF6·4H2O and guanazole. In the crystal, N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds play an important role in the formation of a three-dimensional network. As a result of these hydrogen bonds, there are also π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.3024 (14) Å] involving one of the triazole groups in molecules related by an inversion center, and short Cu⋯N interactions [2.909 (3) Å] involving an –NH2 group, leading to the formation of a dimer-like arrangement.

The title compound was prepared using electrochemical synthesis. An ethanol solution of (LH)2SiF6 (where L = 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole) was added to a solution of Cu2SiF6.4H2O (prepared by dissolving [(CuOH)2CO3] in H2SiF6) in CH3OH. This solution was then placed in a small test-tube and copper-wire electrodes were inserted. By usage of the alternating-current electrochemical technique at 0.5 V of tension during some days colourless crystals of the title compound appeared on the electrodes.
The N-bound H-atoms could all be located in difference Fourier maps. In the final cycles of least-squares
they were refined with distance restraints of 0.86 (2) Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).1,2,4-triazole and its functionalized derivatives, particularly 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole (L), have attracted great interest and are actively studied as ligands in the synthesis of coordination compounds, biologically active compounds with a wide range efficiency, and as components of high-energy compositions [Potts, 1984]. On the other hand only a few X-ray crystal structures of complexes of this triazole have been reported (Aznar et al., 2006). The formation of low soluble polynuclear metal derivatives is one of the hindrances for structural studies of such compounds. It may be expected that the protonated form of the ligand (LH) will possess lower affinity to metal centers. Herein, we report on the synthesis and
of the title copper(I) hexafluorosilicate complex of LH.Beside the positively charged state, the LH moiety demonstrates ability of metal coordination. In the structure of [Cu(LH)2]2(SiF6)3 each metal atom is bound to two nitrogen atoms from two LH moieties (Fig. 1). A similar linear copper(I) surrounding comprising of two nitrogen atoms from two voluminous ligand molecules was observed, for example, in the structure of bis(2-methylbenzimidazole)copper(I) dichlorocuprate(I) (Goreshnik et al., 2004). Because of the low copper(I) ion
both Cu–N distances appear to be rather short, 1.8747 (18) and 1.8749 (17) Å. Despite the cationic status of the ligand moiety the Cu - N bond length is practically the same [1.874 (2) Å] as in the above mentioned bis(2-methylbenzimidazole)copper(I) cation.In the crystal each NH and NH2 hydrogen atom participates in the formation of strong N—H···F hydrogen bonds (Table 1). The closest NH2 group to the coordinated copper ion [Cu1···N10i = 2.9092 (29) Å, symmetry code (i) = -x + 1, -y, -z + 1], forms noticeably shorter hydrogen bonds than all the others. Each of the two crystallographically independent SiF62- anions is bound to six LH units (Fig. 2). The [Cu(LH)]3+ and SiF62- units are interconnected by N—H···F bonds to form a three dimensional network (Fig. 3). In the crystal there are also π–π interactions involving triazole rings (N1—N3,C3,C4 = Cg2) related by an inversion center, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.3024 (14)Å for Cg2···Cg2ii [symmetry code (ii) = -x, -y, 1 - z].
As was already mentioned, the guanazolium moiety in this structure acts as a ligand despite its cationic status. Such behaviour was observed previously in the structure of platinum(II) dibromo bis(3,5-diamino-1(2)-triazolium) dibromide (Fabretti, 1992). It emphasizes the high affinity of this triazole derivative towards metal ions. The relatively large size of the LH units and their positive charge lead to the low
of the copper ion.For on 1,2,4-triazole and its functionalized derivatives, see: Potts (1984). For complexes of the same ligand and copper(I) complexes of similar voluminous ligands, see: Aznar et al. (2006); Fabretti (1992); Goreshnik et al. (2004)

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. |

1,2,4-triazole and its functionalized derivatives, particularly 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole (L), have attracted great interest and are actively studied as ligands in the synthesis of coordination compounds, biologically active compounds with a wide range efficiency, and as components of high-energy compositions [Potts, 1984]. On the other hand only a few X-ray crystal structures of complexes of this triazole have been reported (Aznar et al., 2006). The formation of low soluble polynuclear metal derivatives is one of the hindrances for structural studies of such compounds. It may be expected that the protonated form of the ligand (LH) will possess lower affinity to metal centers. Herein, we report on the synthesis and crystal structure of the title copper(I) hexafluorosilicate complex of LH.
Beside the positively charged state, the LH moiety demonstrates ability of metal coordination. In the structure of [Cu(LH)2]2(SiF6)3 each metal atom is bound to two nitrogen atoms from two LH moieties (Fig. 1). A similar linear copper(I) surrounding comprising of two nitrogen atoms from two voluminous ligand molecules was observed, for example, in the structure of bis(2-methylbenzimidazole)copper(I) dichlorocuprate(I) (Goreshnik et al., 2004). Because of the low copper(I) ion coordination number both Cu–N distances appear to be rather short, 1.8747 (18) and 1.8749 (17) Å. Despite the cationic status of the ligand moiety the Cu - N bond length is practically the same [1.874 (2) Å] as in the above mentioned bis(2-methylbenzimidazole)copper(I) cation.
In the crystal each NH and NH2 hydrogen atom participates in the formation of strong N—H···F hydrogen bonds (Table 1). The closest NH2 group to the coordinated copper ion [Cu1···N10i = 2.9092 (29) Å, symmetry code (i) = -x + 1, -y, -z + 1], forms noticeably shorter hydrogen bonds than all the others. Each of the two crystallographically independent SiF62- anions is bound to six LH units (Fig. 2). The [Cu(LH)]3+ and SiF62- units are interconnected by N—H···F bonds to form a three dimensional network (Fig. 3). In the crystal there are also π–π interactions involving triazole rings (N1—N3,C3,C4 = Cg2) related by an inversion center, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.3024 (14)Å for Cg2···Cg2ii [symmetry code (ii) = -x, -y, 1 - z].
As was already mentioned, the guanazolium moiety in this structure acts as a ligand despite its cationic status. Such behaviour was observed previously in the structure of platinum(II) dibromo bis(3,5-diamino-1(2)-triazolium) dibromide (Fabretti, 1992). It emphasizes the high affinity of this triazole derivative towards metal ions. The relatively large size of the LH units and their positive charge lead to the low coordination number of the copper ion.
