Compound (I) was synthesized following the procedure of Tartarini (1933). Solid 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate (1.80 g) was added to an aqueous solution of copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate (1.25 g, 50 ml). Solid potassium iodide (2 g) was then added to this stirred solution, which turned a mustard-yellow colour. The solution was then diluted with sodium sulfite (12.6 g, 250 ml) and brought to the boil, whence a purple precipitate was deposited. The solid was filtered off, washed with water and dried over P2O5 prior to recrystallization from ethanol.
H atoms were treated as riding, with C—H distances of 0.93 Å. Is this added text OK? The peak of highest electron density in the final difference map of (Ia) occurs at (3/4, 0.88, 1/2) and is about 1 Å away from the I− counterion.
For both compounds, data collection: SMART (Siemens, 1995); cell refinement: SMART; data reduction: SAINT (Siemens, 1995); program(s) used to solve structure: SHELXTL (Bruker, 2001). Program(s) used to refine structure: SHELXTL for (Ia); SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 1997) for (Ib). For both compounds, molecular graphics: SHELXTL and ZORTEP (Zsolnai, 1994); software used to prepare material for publication: SHELXTL.

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. |

Bis(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2N,N')copper(I) iodide, [Cu(C12H8N2)2]I, (I), and other halo-forms, have been prepared and employed in the preparation of a range of halo(amine)copper organophosphonate materials. The latter are the subject of a forthcoming publication, and will not be discussed in detail here. However, the phosphonates themselves produced unexpected supramolecular structures, in which it was believed that compound (I) and the organophosphonic acid were unchanged, and had merely produced an associated structure through favourable opportunities for π–π and hydrogen-bonding interactions. Thus, the structural observations of the resulting phosphonates prompted us to investigate the structure of (I). \sch
There appear to be conflicting views on the structure of (I). These relate to the nature of the coordination of the I− and the question of whether it is bound, producing a five-coordinate CuI centre, or whether the Cu is four-coordinate, with the I− forming part of an ionic matrix. The majority of CuI complexes are four-coordinate, and indeed, (I) was originally thought to be ionic (Jardine et al., 1970), because it gave conducting solutions in nitrobenzene (which has an equivalent conductance of 30.8 mho in 10−3 M solution). However, there are exceptions to this four-coordinate rule, for example, the corresponding five-coordinate dafone complex, (II) (Kulkarni et al., 2002; Fig. 1).
Single-crystal structural analysis confirms that (I) is an ionic compound and that it exists in at least two polymorphic forms, (Ia) and (Ib). Both polymorphs are orthorhombic, with form (Ia) crystallizing in space group Pban and form (Ib) in Ccca. In polymorph (Ia), the copper complex has crystallographic 222 symmetry, with the Cu atom occupying a 222 site and the I− counterion occupying a general position (Fig. 2a). In polymorph (Ib), the copper complex has approximate 222 symmetry, with the I− distributed over a twofold site and two 222 sites (see Fig. 2 b). There are significant differences in the geometry about the Cu atom in the two forms. Whilst each Cu atom is four-coordinate, the dihedral angles between the two planes made up of the Cu and the two phenanthroline N atoms are 43.30 (4)° in form (Ia) and 61.80 (4)° in form (Ib). Thus, the geometry of (Ia) is midway between square-planar and tetrahedral, and (Ib) is closer to tetrahedral.
The packing diagrams for the two polymorphs are shown in Figs. 3a and 3 b. As can be seen, both crystals contain ribbons of [Cu(C12H8N2)2]+ cations, together with unassociated I− counterions, which are positioned in the voids. The copper complex cations are associated with their identical neighbours through stacking of the aromatic rings of the phenanthroline in an `offset' manner. This occurs to maximize attractive electrostatic interactions between the positively charged σ frameworks and the negatively charged π electrons, and has been observed for a number of similar systems (Hunter, 1994; Nord, 1985). The minimum distance between overlapping phenanthroline rings is approximately 3.550 Å in form (Ia) and 3.414–3.707 Å in form (Ib). The angle between phenanthroline ring planes in the latter is 4.40 (4)°.
The bonding about the Cu atom in (Ia) and (Ib) is typical of this class of compounds (Jardine, 1970). Phenanthroline ligands generally form four-coordinate complexes with CuI ions, due to steric interactions between the α H atoms of the amine ligand (Simmons et al., 1987). Therefore, if a [Cu(C12H8N2)2]+ cation takes a quasi-square-planar stereochemistry, the four N atoms are expected to have a flattened tetrahedral disposition and the Ni—Cu—Nii or N—Cu—Niii angles should be in the range 150–160° [symmetry codes: (i) x, 1/2 − y, 2 − z; (ii) 3/2 − x, 1/2 − y, z; (iii) 3/2 − x, y, 2 − z Please check these added symops are correct], with no significant differences between the four Cu—N (C12H8N2) distances (Murphy, Murphy et al., 1997 or Murphy, Nagle et al., 1997?). This is the case in (Ia). However, the corresponding angles (N1—Cu—N1' and N2—Cu—N2') in (Ib) are considerably smaller, at approximately 138°, and the Cu—N distances (Tables 1 and 2) are all slightly different.
Other CuI complexes with bidentate amine ligands show different structures. The corresponding dafone complex, (II) (Fig. 1), has trigonal-bipyramidal coordination about the Cu atom, coordinating two dafone molecules and an I−. The N atoms of the dafone ligand have a larger `bite' size (2.99 Å) compared with phenanthroline (2.65 Å), and it can expand the coordination number from four to five because it does not have the steric strain normally associated with phenanthroline in metal complexes (Kulkarni et al., 2002). By comparison, the analogous CuII derivative, [CuI(C12H8N2)2]I·H2O (Nagle & Hathaway, 1991), has a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal copper centre which bonds to four N atoms from two phenanthroline molecules and an I−.
