The title compound, [Cu4Cl6O(C10H10N2)4], contains four CuII atoms which are bridged by six chloride anions. The central O atom is located on a crystallographic fourfold roto-inversion axis. Each CuII atom is coordinated by an N atom of a neutral monodentate 3-methyl-5-phenylpyrazole ligand, three Cl− anions, and one O2− anion. The geometry at each CuII atom is distorted trigonal–bipyramidal, with the three Cl− ions in the equatorial plane and the N and O atoms in the axial positions.

5-Methyl-3-phenylpyrazole (16.0 mg, 0.1 mmol), prepared according to the literature (Puerta & Cohen, 2003), was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 ml) at room temperature. To this solution, copper(II) chloride dihydrate (8.7 mg, 0.05 mmol) in methanol (2 ml) was added. The resulting solution was stirred for two hours. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate kept at room temperature. Brown crystals were obtained after one week by slow evaporation.
All H atoms are geometrically constrained and refined in riding mode as follows: methyl d(C—H) = 0.96 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C); aromatic d(C—H) = 0.93 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C); d(N—H) = 0.86 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(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. |

5-Methyl-3-phenylpyrazole has been widely used as starting material for the preparation of the trispyrazolylborate anion (Tekeste & Vahrenkamp, 2007; Jacobsen & Cohen, 2004; Puerta & Cohen, 2003; Parkin, 2004). It can form a dimeric complex (He & Sykes, 2007). Reported here is a new complex when it reacts with copper chloride.
In the title compound, (I), six chloride ions hold four copper ions together with an O atom encapsulated in the center (Fig. 1). The coordination geometry around each CuII is identical to each other with three Cl- in the equatorial positions and N and O atoms in the axial positions. The distances between Cu1 and three Cl atoms are 2.361 (2), 2.514 (3) and 2.377 (2) Å. The distances between Cu1 and O1 and N1 are 1.9052 (10) and 1.953 (8) Å, respectively. The N1, Cu1 and O1 atoms fall almost in a line with an angle of 177.9 (5)°. The oxygen atom is located on a crystallographic fourfold roto-inversion axis.
