The reaction cavities of the nitro groups in the title compounds, trans-{2,2′-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenolato-κ⁴O,N,N′,O′}(nitro-κN)(pyridine-κN)cobalt(III), [Co(C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂)(NO₂)(C₅H₅N)], (I), and trans-{2,2′-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenolato-κ⁴O,N,N′,O′}(4-methylpyridine-κN)(nitro-κN)cobalt(III), [Co(C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂)(NO₂)(C₆H₇N)], (II), have been investigated to reveal that the intermolecular C_Me—H⋯O(nitro) contacts in (II) are unfeasible for the nitro–nitrito photochemical linkage isomerization process. In (I), there are two independent complexes showing similar conformations, and the central five-membered chelate ring of the tetradentate salen ligand adopts the same absolute configuration. This is the result of pseudo-spontaneous resolution, since the configuration of the five-membered chelate ring may frequently be reversed in solution. In the crystals of (I) and (II), the molecules are linked into three-dimensional networks by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Keywords: crystal structure; nitro-nitrito photo-isomerization; reaction cavity.

1. Chemical context

The nitrite ion is an ambidentate ligand, which shows linkage isomerism. In a Co^III complex, nitro (N-bonded) coordination is thermodynamically more stable than the nitrito (O-bonded) form, but nitro-nitrito linkage isomerization may occur in the solid state by irradiation with visible or UV light (Balzani et al., 1968 ; Coppens et al., 2002 ). The crystal structures of trans-[Co(en)₂(NO₂)(NCS)]NCS (Ohba, Tsuchimoto & Kurachi, 2018 ) and trans-[Co(acac)₂(NO₂)(pyridine derivative)] (Ohba, Tsuchimoto & Miyazaki, 2018 ) indicated that a certain geometry of the intermolecular N/C—H⋯O contacts restricts the photoisomerization. In the present study, we investigated another type of nitrocobalt complex, trans-[Co(salen)(NO₂)(X-py)], where H₂salen is N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-ethanediamine, and X-py is pyridine in (I) or 4-methylpyridine in (II).

When the KBr disk of the py complex (I) was irradiated for 30 min with a Xe lamp, the colour changed from brown to reddish brown, and the IR spectrum showed an increase in intensity of the absorption peak in the region of 1040–1060 cm⁻¹ (see figure in the supporting information), which corresponds to the symmetric N—O stretching mode of the nitrito form (Heyns & De Waal, 1989 ). The colour and IR spectrum reverted to those before irradiation on standing at room temperature for 2 h. On the other hand, the 4-Me-py complex (II) was photo-stable and did not show any change in the colour or IR spectrum upon irradiation. The crystal structures of (I) and (II) were determined to investigate the steric circumstances of the nitro ligand.

The photo-reactivities of nitrocobalt complexes in the solid state depend not only on the steric conditions but also on the electronic effects of the co-existing ligands (Miyoshi et al., 1983 ). The change of the IR spectrum of (I) upon irradiation was less apparent and it disappeared much more quickly after irradiation than that of trans-[Co(acac)₂(NO₂)(py)] (Ohba, Tsuchimoto& Miyazaki, 2018), indicating that salen²⁻ is not as suitable as acac⁻ for stabilization of the nitrito form.

2. Structural commentary

The molecular structures of (I) and (II) are shown in Figs. 1 and 2, respectively. In (I), there are two independent complex molecules, which have similar conformations, the five-membered chelate ring of salen being gauche with a λ form. The chirality of the crystal structure indicates that the crystals are pseudo-racemic conglomerates, because the configuration of the chelate ring may frequently switch from λ to δ, and vice versa, in solution. The Co—N(nitro) bond lengths are 1.944 (4) and 1.950 (3) Å in (I) and 1.916 (4) Å in (II). In each case, the coordination geometry around the Co atom is a distorted octahedron with the N(nitro) and N(py) atoms at the trans positions.

3. Supramolecular features

The crystal structures of (I) and (II) are shown in Figs. 3 and 4, respectively. In both (I) and (II), the molecules are connected by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Tables 1 and 2), forming a three-dimensional network. There are π–π interactions between the pyridine rings in (I) (see Figs. 1 and 3), the distance between the centroids being 3.82 (1) Å with a dihedral angle of 15.74 (8)°. The shortest contact between the rings is C39⋯C59 of 3.351 (6) Å.

Slices of the reaction cavities around the NO₂⁻ group near its plane in (I) and (II) are compared in Fig. 5, where the radii of neighboring atoms are assumed to be 1.0 Å greater than the corresponding van der Waals radii (Bondi, 1964 ) except for Co, its radius being set to 1.90 Å. The shape of the cavity in the nitro plane is mainly defined by the C—H⋯O(nitro) contacts, which are shown in Figs. 6 and 7. In (I), the cavity of O3—N11—O4 is wide enough to rotate in the original plane to achieve the N,O-bidentate transition state toward the nitrito form, in accord with the observed photo-activity of (I). In (II), the cavity of O2—N6—O3 has a tail, which is connected to that of the symmetry-related one, as seen in Fig. 7. These nitro groups are connected via C_Me—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form an R₄⁴(12) ring, there being a narrow void around the center of the ring. The photo-stability of (II) suggests that the rotation of the NO₂⁻ group in its plane will be blocked by the C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The steric condition of O7—N15—O8 in (I) is similar to that in (II), suggesting that the photoreaction in (I) mainly occurs at the Co1 complex site.

4. Database survey

There is no entry for trans-[Co(salen)(NO₂)(X-py)] in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD Version 5.39; Groom et al., 2016 ), although the structures of related compounds have been published, for example trans-[Co(salen)(py)₂][BPh₄⁻] (Shi et al., 1995 ) and trans-[Co(salen)(4-Cl-py)₂][ClO₄⁻]·CH₃OH (Zhang, 2010 ).

5. Synthesis and crystallization

Cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate, sodium nitrite, H₂salen, and pyridine/4-methylpyridine (molar ratio 1:1:1:1) were reacted in methanol. Air was bubbled through the solution at 328 K for 1 h to precipitate the title compound. Brown needles of (I) and (II) were grown from a dimethyl sulfoxide solution and an N, N′-dimethylformamide solution, respectively, by diffusion of diethyl ether vapour.

6. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 3. The H atoms bound to C were positioned geometrically, the methyl H atoms being introduced by an HFIX 137 command. They were refined as riding, with C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å, and U_iso(H) = 1.2U_eq(C) or 1.5U_eq(C_Me). (I): Since the c axis is longer than 40 Å, the overlapping of reflections was avoided in the intensity measurement by a longer sample-to-detector distance than the usual. (II): Six reflections showing poor agreement were omitted from the final refinement.

Special details top

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.
