The 9H7O4)2(C12H10N2)2(H2O)2], consists of one Co2+ ion, one mono-deprotonated 2-(4-carboxylatophenyl)acetate carboxylic acid, one 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)ethane molecule and one water molecule. The CoII atom is situated on a crystallographic center of inversion and is octahedrally coordinated by two O atoms from two anions, two N atoms of two 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)ethane molecules and two O atoms from two water molecules. A three-dimensional network is established by intermolecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.

Cobalt chloride hexahydrate (1 mmol), 1,2-di(pyridin-4-yl)ethane (1 mmol) and (4-carboxyphenyl)acetic acid (1 mmol) in water (8 ml) were placed in a Teflon-lined stainless-steel Parr bomb that was heated to 433 K for 48 h. Red plate crystals were collected after the bomb was subsequently allowed to cool to room temperature (yield: 38%).
C-bound H atoms were placed geometrically (C—H = 0.93, and 0.98 Å) and refined as riding atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). O-bound H atoms were located in difference Fourier maps and refined as riding in their as-found relative positions (O—H =0.96 Å) with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C).

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. |

During the past decade, the design of new metal-organic supramolecular solids has attracted ever-increasing focus in the fields of coordination chemistry and crystal engineering, for the sake of developing desired crystalline materials with potential functionality (Moulton & Zaworotko, 2001; Janiak et al., 2003). Furthermore, it has been realised that weak noncovalent interactions such as hydrogen bonds, aromatic stacking, and van der Waals forces (Hosseini, 2005; Nishio, 2004) are crucial in the direction of such crystalline architectures. Hitherto, a variety of organic connectors containing pyridyl and/or carboxylate groups (Brammer, 2004) have been widely used to construct metal-organic supramolecular frameworks. Herein we report the crystal structure of the title compound (1).
The molecular structure of (1) is illustrated in Fig. 1. Compound (1) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c. The structure of (1) is a single molecule, in which the Co2+ center is situated on a crystallographic center of inversion. The coordination sphere of cobalt is a slightly distorted octahedron and consistes of by two O atoms from two mono-deprotonated (4-carboxyphenyl)acetate groups, two N atoms of two 1,2-di(pyridin-4-yl)ethane molecules and two O atoms from two water molecules. As shown in Fig. 2, a one-dimensional chain is formed by O–H···N hydrogen bonds. In addition, these one-dimensional chains are linked together by additional O—H···O hydrogen bonds between water molecules and the cobalt bound carboxylate group generating a three-dimensional framework.
