The synthesis of [Cu(ada)(H2O)] was carried out under hydrothermal conditions. A mixture of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O (6.2 mg, 0.0257 mmol), 1–3-adamantanediacetic acid (ada) (6.5 mg, 0.0258 mmol) and distilled water (5 ml) was loaded into a Teflon-lined stainless steel acid digestion bomb and heated at 393 K for 5 d under autogenous pressure. After slow cooling to room temperature, turquoise-blue lath crystals of (I) about 1 mm in length were isolated and collected.
Direct phase determination yielded the positions of Cu and most of the non-H atoms. The remaining C and H atoms were located from the subsequent difference Fourier synthesis. All non-H atoms were refined anisotropically. For the two H atoms of the H2O molecule, their positions were positively detected in a difference map and refined. One of the two water H atoms is not involved in hydrogen bonding. The remaining H atoms were refined isotropically riding on their parent atoms with standard geometry, with C—H = 0.99–1.00 Å.

Experimental. Water H atoms located on intermediate difference Fourier map. |
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. |

The need for renewable energy sources to replace fossil fuels (petroleum, coal and natural gas) has increased dramatically in recent years. Due to growing problems, such as the continuous decrease in fuel supply and the constant introduction of harmful air pollutants to the environment, alternative methods for powering automobiles have been sought extensively (Wigley et al., 1996; Sailor et al., 2000). Hydrogen, the most plentiful element in the universe, is a promising candidate of energy carriers. Not only would it be easily accessible, but its reaction with oxygen to create energy results in only water as a byproduct (Turner, 1999). The foremost issue that lies with using hydrogen as a source of power is its low volumetric density, which makes it difficult to store (Pan et al., 2004). To date, none of the existing storage technologies meet the cost and performance targets set by the US Department of Energy.
Recent research has shown that highly porous crystalline metal coordination structures are promising for use as a new type of hydrogen storage material (Chun et al., 2005; Dincǎ & Long, 2005; Kesanli et al., 2004; Kubota et al., 2005; Lee, Pan et al., 2005; Lee, Li & Jagiello, 2005; Lee, Jang & Suh, 2005; Rowsell & Yaghi, 2005). While these substances exhibit similar sorption characteristics to carbon nanotubes, they also demonstrate stronger sorbate–sorbent interactions and their pores are perfectly ordered, allowing for effective access of hydrogen.
A number of approaches have been used to assemble three-dimensional porous structures. One successful strategy is to construct a secondary building unit (Kim et al., 2001) of one- or two-dimensional structural motifs (Pan et al., 2000). Assembly of targeted porous structures using these motifs can be achieved in a more controllable and predictable manner because of their well defined topology and rigid backbone. In addition, the pore characteristics and properties of porous structures depend largely on the metals and ligands that make up these structures. In an effort to design structures that contain pores of suitable dimensions and shape to maximize sorbent–sorbate interactions, we have selectively worked with a number of organic ligands of different geometry, size and bonding nature. In this work, we describe a new CuII–ada (ada is adamantanediacetate) structure motif, the title compound, (I), which is highly suitable as a two-dimensional secondary building unit.
Compound (I) has a molecular formula of [Cu(ada)(H2O)]. The asymmetric unit is shown in Fig. 1. The building block that acts as a node of the resultant two-dimensional net consists of a paddle-wheel-like [Cu2(ada)4] unit, with the two Cu atoms sharing four ada ligands through the four bridging carboxyl groups. There are no bonds between the Cu atoms but their interatomic distance [2.5977 (3) Å] is short enough for weak interactions. The Cu atoms are five-coordinated. In addition to the four equatorial bonds to the O atoms from the carboxyl groups, the Cu atom also bonds axially to the O atom of a terminal water molecule. The bond geometries for the ligand and the coordination sphere of Cu are as expected, based upon similar structures in the Cambridge Structural Database (Version?; Allen, 2002). One of the water H atoms points to a carboxylate O atom of the nearest neighboring paddle-wheel unit to form a hydrogen bond, while the second H atom does not. This is likely due to the relatively short Cu—OH2 bond, which leads to O···H—O angles that are too small for a hydrogen bond, similar to a number of structures reported previously (Fujita et al., 1993; Hamilton et al., 2003; Strinna Erre et al., 1985). Each [Cu2(ada)4] paddle-wheel unit interconnects with four adjacent identical units to form a two-dimensional layer of 44 net parallel to (101), as shown in Fig. 2. The layers stack on top of each other to give rise to the overall structure, as illustrated in Fig. 3. Important bond distances and angles are listed in Table 1.
The topology of this two-dimensional [Cu(ada)(H2O)] structure motif is highly suitable for the formation of three-dimensional porous structures, simply by replacing the water molecules with a proper nitrogen-containing bidentate ligand, such as pyrazine (pz) or 4,4'-bipyridine (bpy). We have successfully built a number of three-dimensional structures via this route (Pan, Liu, Kelly et al., 2003; Pan, Liu, Lei et al., 2003), and are currently applying the same strategy to construct Cu–ada-based porous three-dimensional networks.
The only known metal–organic framework structure that contains a similar adamantane dicarboxylic acid is [Eu2(adc)3] (where adc is 1,3-adamantanedicarboxylate) (Millange et al., 2004). It is a three-dimensional network consisting of one-dimensional chains that are made of face-sharing polyhedra of nine-coordinated Eu and interconnected via adc. The ligand, metal coordination, topology and overall structure of [Eu2(adc)3] are very different from those of the title compound, [Cu(ada)(H2O)].
