In the title coordination polymer, {[Co(CHO₂)₂(C₂₀H₁₄N₄)(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O}_n, the Co^II atom (site symmetry $[\overline{1}]$ ) is coordinated by two formate O atoms, two water O atoms and two N atoms from two 1,4-bis(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)benzene ligands (L), resulting in a distorted trans-CoN₂O₄ octahedral coordination environment. The complete L ligand is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry and serves to bridge the cobalt ions into a chain propagating in [1 $[\overline{1}]$ $[\overline{1}]$ ]. The dihedral angle between the central benzene ring and the imidazole ring system is 38.48 (12)°. O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving both the coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules occur and help to link the chains together.

Comment top

Imidazole has been extensively used in crystal engineering, and a large number of imidazole-containing flexible ligands have been extensively studied. However, to our knowledge, the research on imidazole ligands bearing rigid spacers is still less developed (Li et al., 2009; Li et al., 2011). For the title compound, the geometry of the Co^II ion is bound by two benzoimidazole rings of individual L ligands, two water molecules and two formate ions forming a slightly distorted octahedral coordination environment(Fig. 1). Notably, as shown in Fig. 2, the six-coordinate Co^II center is bridged by the ligand L to form an infinite one-dimensional architecture.

Experimental top

A mixture of CH₃OH and H₂O (1:1, 8 ml), as a buffer layer, was carefully layered over a solution of Co(HCO₂)₂ in H₂O (6 ml). Then a solution of 1,4-di(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)benzene (L, 0.06 mmol) in CH₃OH (6 ml) was layered over the buffer layer, and the resultant reaction was left to stand at room temperature. After ca three weeks, purple blocks appeared at the boundary. Yield: ~21% (based on L).

Special details top

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.
