In the polymeric title complex, {[Cu(C8H5NO4S)(H2O)]·3H2O}n, the CuII cation is coordinated by one water molecule and four carboxylate O atoms from four 2-[(carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]nicotinate anions in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The 2-[(carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]nicotinate anion bridges four CuII cations, forming a two-dimensional polymeric complex parallel to the bc plane. In the crystal, O—H⋯O, O—H⋯N and O—H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and lattice water molecules into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture.

2-Carboxymethylsulfanyl nicotinic acid (1.0 mmol) in H2O (10 ml) was stirred under basic condition in which NH3.H2O was needed to keep pH value of 11. CuCl2.2H2O was added and stirred for 2 h. The resulting solution was placed for 2 days, and the crystals were filtered off, giving blue crystals of the title compound for X-ray analysis.
The carbon-bound H-atoms were positioned geometrically and included in the
using a riding model [aromatic C—H 0.93 Å and aliphatic C—H 0.97 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)]. The oxygen-bound H-atoms was located in a difference Fourier maps and refined with the O—H distance restrained to 0.83 (2) Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(O).2-Carboxymethylsulfanylnicotinic acid is prepared from 2-mercaptonanicotinic acid (Wang & Feng, 2010). 2-Mercaptonanicotinic acid is a multifunctional ligand, and some complexes containing 2-mercaptonanicotinate ligand have been previously investigated (Humphrey et al., 2006; Sun et al., 2011).
The 2-carboxymethylsulfanylnicotinic acid is an interesting ligand because of its potential versatile coordinate behavior. Recently, only three metal compounds have been reported about 2-carboxymethylsulfanyl nicotinic acid (Jiang et al., 2012). Herein, we report the synthesis and structure of the title compound.
A perspective view of (I) is presented in Fig.1. The
consists of one CuII ion, one (C8H5NO4S)2- ligands, one coordinated water molecule, and three lattice water molecules. As shown in Fig. 2, each pair of Cu2+ ion is µ-linked by four carboxylic groups of the individual (C8H5NO4S)2- ligands with Cu···Cu distances of 2.6524 (15) Å. The (C8H5NO4S)2- ligands bridge adjacent dinuclear units in a head-to-tail fashion to form a two-dimensional layer on the bc plane, and further linked into the three-dimensional architecture by O—H···O/N/S hydrogen bonds (Fig.3).For background to the 2-[(carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]nicotinato ligand, see: Wang & Feng (2010).

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. |

2-Carboxymethylsulfanylnicotinic acid is prepared from 2-mercaptonanicotinic acid (Wang & Feng, 2010). 2-Mercaptonanicotinic acid is a multifunctional ligand, and some complexes containing 2-mercaptonanicotinate ligand have been previously investigated (Humphrey et al., 2006; Sun et al., 2011).
The 2-carboxymethylsulfanylnicotinic acid is an interesting ligand because of its potential versatile coordinate behavior. Recently, only three metal compounds have been reported about 2-carboxymethylsulfanyl nicotinic acid (Jiang et al., 2012). Herein, we report the synthesis and structure of the title compound.
A perspective view of (I) is presented in Fig.1. The asymmetric unit consists of one CuII ion, one (C8H5NO4S)2- ligands, one coordinated water molecule, and three lattice water molecules. As shown in Fig. 2, each pair of Cu2+ ion is µ-linked by four carboxylic groups of the individual (C8H5NO4S)2- ligands with Cu···Cu distances of 2.6524 (15) Å. The (C8H5NO4S)2- ligands bridge adjacent dinuclear units in a head-to-tail fashion to form a two-dimensional layer on the bc plane, and further linked into the three-dimensional architecture by O—H···O/N/S hydrogen bonds (Fig.3).
