The crystal structure of the title salt, [Cu(ClO4)(C8H20N4)]ClO4, is reported. The CuII ion exhibits a square-pyramidal geometry and is coordinated by the four N atoms of the neutral 1,4,7,10-tetra­aza­cyclo­dodecane (cyclen) ligand and an O atom from one perchlorate anion, with the second perchlorate ion hydrogen-bonded to one of the amine N atoms of the cyclen ligand. Additional N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the amine H atoms and the coordinating and non-coordinating perchlorate groups create a three-dimensional network structure. Crystals were grown from a concentrated methanol solution at ambient temperature, resulting in no co-crystallization of solvent.

1. Chemical context

Aza­macrocycle ligands, including 1,4,7,10-tetra­aza­cyclo­dodecane (cyclen), are of significant importance in research due to their ability to form stable metal complexes, allowing for their use in a wide range of applications. Some of these complexes have been studied for their use as chemical sensors, contrast agents in MRI and PET, anti­microbial agents and as biomimetic catalysts (De León-Rodríguez et al., 2010[De León-Rodríguez, L. M., Viswanathan, S. & Sherry, A. D. (2010). Contrast Media Mol. Imaging, 5, 121-125.]; Yoo et al., 2005[Yoo, S. H., Lee, B. J., Kim, H. & Suh, J. (2005). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127, 9593-9602.]). Copper–cyclen complexes have been studied extensively for their ability to perform catalytic DNA cleavage and peptide hydrolysis (Zhang et al., 2016[Zhang, X., Liu, X., Phillips, D. L. & Zhao, C. (2016). ACS Catal. 6, 248-257.]; Li et al. 2014[Li, S., Chen, J.-X., Xiang, Q.-X., Zhang, L.-Q., Zhou, C.-H., Xie, J.-Q., Yu, L. & Li, F.-Z. (2014). Eur. J. Med. Chem. 84, 677-686.]; Hormann et al., 2015[Hormann, J., van der Meer, M., Sarkar, B. & Kulak, N. (2015). Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. pp. 4722-4730.]). Although the synthesis of a similar CuII complex has been reported previously, no crystal structure of the complex, [Cu(1,4,7,10-tetra­aza­cyclo­dodeca­ne)](ClO4)2, has previously been published (Kruppa et al., 2006[Kruppa, M., Frank, D., Leffler-Schuster, H. & König, B. (2006). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 359, 1159-1168.]).

2. Structural commentary

In the title complex (Fig. 1[link]), the copper(II) ion coordinated by the four nitro­gen atoms of the cyclen ligand and one oxygen atom of a perchlorate ligand. The five-coordinate cupric ion shows a nearly ideal square-pyramidal geometry (τ5 = 0.049; Addison et al., 1984[Addison, A. W., Rao, N. T., Reedijk, J., van Rijn, J. & Verschoor, G. C. (1984). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 1349-1356.]). The Cu—N bond lengths range from 2.004 (1) to 2.015 (1) Å, which are typical values. The CuII ion exhibits a tetra­gonal distortion that leads to a longer apical bond with Cu1—O1 = 2.266 (1) Å, which is 0.12 Å longer than the average Cu—O distance (Clay et al., 1979[Clay, R., Murray-Rust, P. & Murray-Rust, J. (1979). Acta Cryst. B35, 1894-1895.]; Rohde & Merzweiler, 2010[Rohde, D. & Merzweiler, K. (2010). Acta Cryst. E66, m894.]). The average N—Cu—O bond angle is 103.8 (8)°. Three hydrogen bonds are present within the asymmetric unit, with two extending from O2 and O3 of the bound perchlorate anion to N1—H1 and N2—H2, respectively. The third hydrogen bond extends from N2—H2 to O8 of the unbound anion; the numerical details are given in Table 1[link].

3. Supra­molecular features

The crystal structure exhibits three unique symmetry elements: an inversion center, a twofold screw axis and a glide plane. The complex cations of two asymmetric units hydrogen-bond across an inversion center, which is clearly visible when viewed along the a axis (Fig. 2[link]), creating a dimer. These hydrogen bonds (N3—H3⋯O1, N3—H3⋯O4, N4—H4⋯O5) have an average N⋯O distance of 3.16 Å (Fig. 3[link]). The complexes assemble in rows parallel to the b axis (Fig. 4[link]) due in part to weak electrostatic inter­actions between the bound perchlorate anion and a neighboring cyclen ligand. A hydrogen bond between the cyclen ligand and a neighboring perchlorate anion (N1—H1⋯O3) allows the building units to assemble parallel to the a axis (Fig. 5[link]).

4. Database survey

A database survey resulted in several similar Cu–cyclen complexes with five-coordinate copper(II). Four structures chosen for further analysis contained a copper(II) ion coordinated by either five nitro­gen atoms or four nitro­gen atoms and one oxygen atom (Rohde & Merzweiler, 2010[Rohde, D. & Merzweiler, K. (2010). Acta Cryst. E66, m894.]; Sarma et al., 2010[Sarma, M., Chatterjee, T. & Das, S. K. (2010). Inorg. Chem. Commun. 13, 1114-1117.]; Péréz-Toro et al., 2015[Pérez-Toro, I., Domínguez-Martín, A., Choquesillo-Lazarte, D., Vílchez-Rodríguez, E., González-Pérez, J. M., Castiñeiras, A. & Niclós-Gutiérrez, J. (2015). J. Inorg. Biochem. 148, 84-92.]; Guo et al., 2008[Guo, J.-F., Yeung, W.-F., Gao, S., Lee, G.-H., Peng, S.-M., Lam, M. H.-W. & Lau, T.-C. (2008). Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. pp. 158-163.]). Where applicable, the complexes have similar Cu—O bond lengths to that of the title complex, with only slight deviations. The title complex and surveyed complexes have similar Cu—N distances with a standard deviation of 0.018 Å.

5. Synthesis and crystallization

The title complex was synthesized by a modified method as reported by Kruppa et al. (2006[Kruppa, M., Frank, D., Leffler-Schuster, H. & König, B. (2006). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 359, 1159-1168.]). Under a nitro­gen atmos­phere, 1,4,7,10-tetra­aza­cyclo­dodecane (247 mg, 1.4 mmol) and copper(II) perchlorate hexa­hydrate (527 mg, 1.4 mmol) were separately dissolved in 2.8 mL anhydrous methanol each and combined. The resulting purple solution formed a precipitate. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 30 min then filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness to yield a purple amorphous solid. X-ray quality crystals were grown by dissolving the solid in a minimum amount of methanol followed by slow evaporation at ambient temperature. The title complex [Cu(cyclen)](ClO4)2 was isolated as purple crystals in 84% yield (1.2 mmol, 526 mg). IR [ATR, ν (cm−1)]: 3281, 2939, 1478, 1072, 617. MS (MALDI–TOF, MeOH): m/z = 334.2 [Cu(cyclen)2+ + ClO4].

6. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2[link]. H atoms attached to carbon were positioned geometrically and constrained to ride on their parent atoms. The H atoms attached to nitro­gen were located in a difference map and restrained to have comparable bond lengths. Uiso(H) values were set to 1.2Ueq(C/N).

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.
