The title compound, [Fe(C5H3N2O4)2(H2O)2], is a triclinic modification of a monoclinic form recently reported by Du et al. [Acta Cryst. (2011), E67, m997]. The FeII ion lies at an inversion center and is coordinated by two N and two O atoms from two 5-carboxy-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate ligands in trans positions, together with two water molecules, completing a slightly distorted octahedral coordination. Intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding between the N—H group of the imidazole ring and the deprotonated carboxylate group builds a chain of 5-carboxy-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate anions along the [101] direction. The water molecules form intermolecular hydrogen bonds to O—C and O=C sites of the carboxylate group in adjacent layers.

A mixture of FeSO4. 7H2O (13.33 mmol), 4,5-imidazoledicarboxamide (22.21 mmol), 85.0% H3PO4 (8.89 mmol), and H2O (8 ml) was placed in a 30 ml Teflon beaker. It was sealed in a stainless-steel reactor, heated to 453 K for 96 h under autogenous pressure, and then, slowly cooled to room temperature. Pale-yellow block crystals of the title complex were isolated, washed with distilled water, and dried in air. It may be added that NH4FePO4.H2O: see Yakubovich et al. (1995), Pale-green plate crystals were also crystallized in the present synthetic condition. This supports the hydrolysis of the 4,5-imidazoledicarboxamide during the synthesis.
H atoms attached to C and N atoms were placed at calculated positions (C—H = 0.93 Å, N—H = 0.86 Å) and refined as riding atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C, N). The carboxy H was located at the idealized position (O—H = 0.82 Å) and refined as a riding atom with Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O). On the other hand, H atoms of water molecules were located in a difference map, and their positions were subsequently refined with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).
A number of studies on transition metal complexes with carboxylate ligands are reported in the literature. Recently, imidazole dicarboxylate has been recognized as an efficient building block, since it shows two different coordination modes to bridge or chelate metals through the carboxyl oxygen atoms and heterocyclic nitrogen donor. The crystal of diaquabis(5-carboxy-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylato-κ2N3,\ O)iron(II) is isostructural with Co analog 4,5-dicarboxyimidazole complexes (Li et al., 2011). Iron(II) ion lies at the inversion center that is coordinated by two 1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylate monoanionic ligands at the trans positions and two water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. A previous report described a monoclinic metal complex with a similar chemical composition (Du et al., 2011). This structural diversity is attributed to the different types of coordination architectures of hydrogen bonding between molecules. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the N—H site of an imidazole ring and C═O site of a deprotonated carboxylate in the title compound builds a unique chain of 5-carboxy-1H- imidazole-4-carboxylate anion. The chain structures are further linked into a three-dimensional supermolecular framework through O—H···O hydrogen bonding interactions. The average distance of Fe—O agrees well with that of the monoclinic phase. Nevertheless, the average distance of Fe—N (2.165 Å) is longer than that in the monoclinic analog (2.147 Å).

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. |

A number of studies on transition metal complexes with carboxylate ligands are reported in the literature. Recently, imidazole dicarboxylate has been recognized as an efficient building block, since it shows two different coordination modes to bridge or chelate metals through the carboxyl oxygen atoms and heterocyclic nitrogen donor. The crystal of diaquabis(5-carboxy-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylato-κ2N3,\ O)iron(II) is isostructural with Co analog 4,5-dicarboxyimidazole complexes (Li et al., 2011). Iron(II) ion lies at the inversion center that is coordinated by two 1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylate monoanionic ligands at the trans positions and two water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. A previous report described a monoclinic metal complex with a similar chemical composition (Du et al., 2011). This structural diversity is attributed to the different types of coordination architectures of hydrogen bonding between molecules. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the N—H site of an imidazole ring and C═O site of a deprotonated carboxylate in the title compound builds a unique chain of 5-carboxy-1H- imidazole-4-carboxylate anion. The chain structures are further linked into a three-dimensional supermolecular framework through O—H···O hydrogen bonding interactions. The average distance of Fe—O agrees well with that of the monoclinic phase. Nevertheless, the average distance of Fe—N (2.165 Å) is longer than that in the monoclinic analog (2.147 Å).
