The ligand N-phenylpyridine-2-carboxamide was synthesized as follows: N-Phenyl-2-pyridynamide was prepared following a modification of the procedure described by Barnes et al. (1978). A solution consisting of a mixture of 2-pyridinecarboxylic acid (picolinic acid, 40 mmol), phenylamide (aniline, 40 mmol) and triphenylphosphite (40 mmol) in 50 ml of pyridine was kept for 3 h in a boiling water bath. The resulting solution was cooled and maintained at room temperature for 48 h. The resulting white fibrous crystals were filtered off and washed with a small amount of a 1:1 mixture of acetone/diethyl ether (78% yield). Analysis found: C 72.9, H 5.10, N 14.01%; C12H10N2O requires: C 72.7, H 5.08, N 14.14%. For the synthesis of (I), a solution of copper(II) acetate monohydrate in methanol (2.5 mmol) was added to a solution of N-phenyl-2-pyridynamide (5.0 mmol) in methanol at 323 K. The resulting solution was left to cool for 24 h, allowing partial evaporation of the solvent. Single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of the resulting solution at room temperature. They were collected and washed with a 1:1 mixture of acetone/diethyl ether and dried under low pressure. Analysis found: C 60.23, H 4.45, N 10.78%; C26H22CuN4O4 requires: C 60.28, H 4.28, N 10.82%.
Compound (I) crystallized in the orthorhombic system; space groups Pna21 and Pnma were permitted from the systematic absences, and Pna21 was confirmed by the analysis. H atoms were treated as riding atoms, with C—H distances of 0.95 Å (aromatic) and 0.98 Å (methyl), an N—H distance of 0.89 Å, and Uiso(H) values of 1.5 (methyl) or 1.2 times Ueq(C,N). The correct orientation of the structure with respect to the polar axis direction was established by means of the Flack (1983) parameter.

The title complex, (I), assumes a different geometry to those previously reported in the literature with identical and similar ligands. In the CuII complex with the same ligand (Ray et al., 1994), the structure determination showed that the Cu complex is a four-coordinate one with a symmetric N4 coordination environment, with the ligand assuming a cis conformation. A Cu complex with a similar ligand, [N-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl) pyridine-2-carboxamide] has also been reported (Patra et al., 1999). In this case, the molecular structure determination showed that the Cu centre is five-coordinate in a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry with an N4O coordination environment, with the pyridine and the amide N atoms of each organic ligand providing an axial and an equatorial pyridine and amide N atom and the fifth coordination position occupied by a water molecule.
The N-phenylpyridine-2-carboxamide ligand was obtained by a condensation reaction between 2-pyridinecarboxylic acid and phenylamide in a basic reductive reaction medium following a modification of the procedure described by Barnes et al. (1978) and a similar procedure described by Ray et al. (1994). The ligand, potentially bidentate, reacted with copper(II) acetate forming a five-coordinate complex, (I). The synthesis of the complex was performed in a fashion similar to that reported previously (Ray et al., 1994) but using different reaction conditions. In their synthesis, the ligand (dissolved in ethanol) was allowed to react with an aqueous solution of CuSO4·5H2O, while in the synthesis reported here the ligand was dissolved in methanol and added to a methanol solution of Cu(CH3COO)2·H2O.
A view of the structure of the complex and the coordination environment around Cu, together with its numbering scheme, is shown in Fig. 1. The coordination environment around copper is N3O2-type and is asymmetric. One of the N-phenylpyridine-2-carboxamide molecules (ligand A) provides a pyridine N and an amide O donor atoms. The second molecule (ligand B, labelled X4#, where X is the atom label and # is an integer) provides a pyridine and a deprotonated amide N donor atoms. The remaining donor O atom, O3, is from the acetate anion. Atom O31 of the acetate residue can be considered to be weakly interacting with the CuII ion [Cu1—O31 = 2.789 (2) Å]. In this case, the primary N3O2 five-coordination geometry gives place to an effective asymmetric octahedral elongated geometry (Kiani et al., 2002; Burčák et al., 2005). The primary Cu-atom geometry is a distorted square-based pyramid with a τ value of 0.10 [the structure index is defined as τ = (β - α)/60, where β and α are the largest coordination angles; τ = 0 for square–pyramidal (SP) and τ = 1 for trigonal–bipyramidal (TBP) geometry (Addison et al., 1984)]. Ligand B (providing two N donor atoms), an acetate O atom and the pyridine N atom of ligand A encompass the basal plane of the square pyramid [Cu1—N47(amide) = 1.995 (2) Å, Cu1—N41 and Cu1—N1(pyridine) = 2.013 (5) and 2.042 (2) Å, respectively, Cu1—O3(acetate) = 1.9534 (19) Å], from which the Cu atom is displaced 0.1253 (11) Å towards an apical amide O donor atom [Cu1—O2 = 2.2557 (19) Å]. The apical bond length Cu1—O2 is 0.26 Å longer than the mean distance presented by the basal ones. The bond angles involving the coordinated metal centre and the donor atoms are given in Table 1. The largest distortions from the square-pyramidal geometry are indicated by the N41—Cu1—N1 and O3—Cu1—N47 angles. These deviations can be attributed to steric effects imposed by the conformations assumed by the ligands.
Ligands A and B have different conformations. The presence of the H atom on N27 in ligand A precludes this atom being coordinated to the Cu atom; instead, ligand A is rotated by approximately 180° and the carbonyl atom O2 is the donor to the Cu atom, so that ligands A and B assume different conformations around the C2—C27 and C42—C47 bonds, the N1—C2—C27—N27 torsion angle in ligand A being 171.8 (2)°, and N41—C42—C47—N47, the corresponding torsion angle in ligand B, being 0.1 (3)°. In ligand A, the C27—N27—C21—C22 torsion angle is -174.7 (3)°, while the corresponding angle C47—N47—C421—C422 in ligand B is -96.9 (3)°. The C27—N27 bond [1.346 (3) Å] is significantly longer than the C47—N47 bond [1.323 (3) Å] at a 3σ level. Atom H27 is thus available for hydrogen bonding.
The supramolecular stucture is defined by an N—H···O, three C—H···O and one C—H···π hydrogen bonds, which combine to form a three-dimensional network. Atom N27 acts as a hydrogen-bond donor, via H27, to O4i (symmetry codes are given in Table 2). This is augmented by the C3—H3···O4i and C22—H22···O4i hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a chain that runs parallel to the c axis (Table 2 and Fig. 2). Atom C5 acts as a hydrogen-bond donor, via H5, to O3ii, thus linking the molecules into a chain that runs parallel to the a axis (Table 2 and Fig. 3). Finally, atom C45 is involved in a C—H···π contact with the pyridine ring containing atom N41iii (Table 2 and Fig. 4).
