(Received 13 April 2013; accepted 1 June 2013; online 12 June 2013)

In the title compound, [CoBr(CH5N)(C3H10N2)2]Br2, the cobaltIII ion has a distorted octa­hedral coordination environment and is surrounded by four N atoms in the equatorial plane, with an additional N atom and the Br atom occupying the axial positions. In the crystal, the complex cation and the two counter anions are linked via N—H⋯Br and C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

Mixed ligand cobalt(III) complexes find potential applications in the fields of antitumor, antibacterial, antimicrobial, radiosenzitation and cytotoxicity activities (Sayed et al., 1992; Teicher et al., 1990; Arslan et al., 2009; Delehanty et al., 2008). Cobalt is an essential and integral component of vitamin B12, therefore it is physiologically found in most tissues. Complexes of cobalt are useful for nutritional supplementation to provide cobalt in a form which effectively increases the bioavailability, for instance, vitamin B12 by microorganisms present in the gut. In addition, cobalt(III) complexes are known for electron transfer and ligand substitution reactions, which find applications in chemical and biological systems. Against this background and to ascertain the molecular conformation, the structure determination of the title compound has been carried out.

The present research is the design and synthesis of cobalt(III) complexes with an objective to understand the structure-reactivity correlation. Substituting an amino ligand for the MeNH2 moiety can yield complexes of similar structure, but with differing electron transfer rates (Anbalagan, 2011; Anbalagan et al., 2011).

X-ray analysis confirms the molecular structure and atom connectivity as illustrated in Fig. 1. The bond lengths [Co-N] in (Fig. 1) agree with those observed [1.9722 (2) to 1.988 (2)Å] in the literature (Maheshwaran et al. (2013). The whole molecule is not planar as the dihedral angle between the two pyrimidine rings is 84.8 (5)°. The bond lengths [Co-N] are comparable with the values reported[1.9493 (1) to 1.9673 (2)Å]in the literature (Lee et al., 2007; Ramesh et al., 2008; Anbalagan et al., 2009; Ravichandran et al.,2009). One of the six membered rings in the molecule adopts a chair conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by C–H···Br and N–H···Br interactions along the a axis as shown in Fig.2.

Experimental top

Crystalline trans-[CoIII(tn)2Br2]Br (2g) was made into a paste using 3-4 drops of water. To the solid mass, about 4 ml of 0.12 M methyl amine (MeNH2) was dropped for 30 min and mixed well. The grinding of a dull green paste was continued to obtain a red mass and the reaction mixture was set aside until no further change was observed. Then the product was allowed to stand overnight and the solid was washed with ethanol. The final product was dissolved in 5-10 ml of water pre-heated to 70°C and allowed to crystallize in hot acidified water(few drops of hot conc. HCl and 2 ml of water and cooled). Finally, microcrystalline pink color crystals were retrieved (yield 0.87 g), filtered, washed with ethanol and dried over vacuum. X-ray quality crystals were obtained by recrystallization from hot acidified distilled water.

Refinement top

All H atoms were fixed geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent C atoms, with C—H distances fixed in the range 0.93–0.97 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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.
