The title compound, [Cd(C9H7O3)2(C10H8N2)2], was synthesized under mild hydrothermal conditions. The structure of the complex molecule consists of four approximately planar fragments: two 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues and two 2,2′-bipyridine ligands [largest deviation from the least-squares planes is 0.240 (1) Å for one of 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues]. The dihedral angles formed by the least-squares planes of the 2,2′-bipyridine ligands and the opposite 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues are 22.68 (7) and 26.47 (6)°. The CdN4O4 can be described as distorted dodecahedral. Intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between carboxylate O atoms and hydroxy groups lead to the formation of chains along the a-axis direction.

A mixture of Cd(Ac)2.6H2O (0.1998 g, 0.5 mmol), 3-hydroxycinnamic acid (0.1642 g, 1 mmol)and 2,2'-bipyridine (0.1563 g, 1 mmol) was dissolved in 25 ml of EtOH/ H2O mixture (V/V,1:5), and then sealed in a 25 ml Teflon-lined stainless steel reactor and heated at 433 K for 3 d. On completion of the reaction, the reactor was cooled slowly to room temperature and the mixture was filtered, giving yellow blocky single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis in 38% yield.
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model [C—H = 0.93 Å and O—H = 0.82 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,O)].
Carboxylate complexes have received a great deal of attention over the last few years due to their interesting coordination chemistry, unusual structural features, remarkable physical and chemical properties, and extensive practical applications (Baca et al., 2005; Rao et al., 2004). Very recently, the coordination chemistry of carboxylate groups with transition metals, especially importing the ancillary ligand (e.g. pyridine), has undergone extensive development. (Armentano et al., 2005; Karmakar et al., 2009; Zhu et al.,2011; Zhao et al.,2010; Liu et al.,2008). In this context, we report the synthesis and structure of a new compound, [Cd(C9H7O3)2(C10H8N2)2].
A perspective view of molecular structure of the title complex is presented in Fig.1. The Cd2+ ions are eight-coordinated by two carboxylate groups from two 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate anions, and four nitrogen atoms from two 2,2'-bipyridine molecules. The structure of complex molecule consists of four approximately planar fragments: two 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues and two 2,2'-bipyridine ligands (largest deviation from the l.s. planes is 0.240 (1) Å for one of 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues). The dihedral angles formed by the l.s. planes of 2,2'-bipyridine ligands and opposite 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues are 22.68 (7)° and 26.47 (6)°. Strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions O—H···O (2.672 (3) Å and 2.624 (3) Å) between the carboxylate O atoms and hydroxy groups play a vital role in the construction of the chains along the a direction (Figure. 2).

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'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. |

Carboxylate complexes have received a great deal of attention over the last few years due to their interesting coordination chemistry, unusual structural features, remarkable physical and chemical properties, and extensive practical applications (Baca et al., 2005; Rao et al., 2004). Very recently, the coordination chemistry of carboxylate groups with transition metals, especially importing the ancillary ligand (e.g. pyridine), has undergone extensive development. (Armentano et al., 2005; Karmakar et al., 2009; Zhu et al.,2011; Zhao et al.,2010; Liu et al.,2008). In this context, we report the synthesis and structure of a new compound, [Cd(C9H7O3)2(C10H8N2)2].
A perspective view of molecular structure of the title complex is presented in Fig.1. The Cd2+ ions are eight-coordinated by two carboxylate groups from two 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate anions, and four nitrogen atoms from two 2,2'-bipyridine molecules. The structure of complex molecule consists of four approximately planar fragments: two 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues and two 2,2'-bipyridine ligands (largest deviation from the l.s. planes is 0.240 (1) Å for one of 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues). The dihedral angles formed by the l.s. planes of 2,2'-bipyridine ligands and opposite 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propenoate residues are 22.68 (7)° and 26.47 (6)°. Strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions O—H···O (2.672 (3) Å and 2.624 (3) Å) between the carboxylate O atoms and hydroxy groups play a vital role in the construction of the chains along the a direction (Figure. 2).
