The azide anion is a short bridging ligand that has been used extensively to construct magnetic coordination polymers, and fundamental magneto-structural correlations have been substanti­ated by theoretical calculations. The copper(II) coordination polymer poly[bis­(μ-azido-κ2N1:N1)(μ4-homo­phthal­ato-κ4O:O′:O′′:O′′′)bis­(pyridine-κN)dicopper(II)], [Cu2(C9H6O4)(N3)2(C5H5N)2]n, was synthesized from homophthalic acid (2-carb­oxy­phenyl­acetic acid), pyridine and azide (N3) by a hydro­thermal reaction. Single-crystal structure analysis indicated that it features a one-dimensional chain structure which is comprised of (μ1,1-N3)(μ-synsyn-COO)2- and (μ1,1-N3)2-bridged tetra­nuclear CuII units. Magnetic measurements revealed that the compound exhibits dominant anti­ferromagnetic behaviour.

Introduction top

Magnetic coordination polymers (CPs) have aroused considerable inter­est with regard to understanding magnetic phenomena and fundamental magneto-structural correlations, as well as for their possible applications as functional magnetic materials (Wang, Avendano et al., 2011; Weng et al., 2011). The azide anion (N3), as a typical short bridging ligand, has been used extensively to construct magnetic CPs and fundamental magneto-structural correlations have been discovered and established, and also substanti­ated by theoretical calculations (Zeng et al., 2009). In general, the two common bridging modes observed for the azide ligand are µ1,3-N3 (end-to-end, EE) and µ1,1-N3 (end-on, EO). The former mainly mediates anti­ferromagnetic coupling, apart from a few exceptions where ferromagnetic coupling through this pathway was also discovered. The EO mode is known as both ferromagnetic and anti­ferromagnetic depending not only on the M—N—M bond angle, but also on the nature of the metal ion, i.e. the magnetic orbitals involved in each case. The azide anion often co-operates with other organic ligands to control its bridging mode and magnetic coupling type. Organic amines, Schiff bases, carboxyl­ates and nitro­gen heterocycles, including pyridine derivatives, as co-ligands have been used successfully in the construction of CPs with inter­esting architectures and magnetic properties (Zhang et al., 2014; Mandal et al., 2008; Biswas et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2009). Herein, homophthalic acid (H2hmph) has been chosen as a co-ligand with N3 to occupy some coordination sites of the metal ion and the avoid bridging ligands further linking of the strands of the CPs, thus lowering the dimensionality of the obtained material. Pyridine (py) was also introduced into the system as a base to facilitate incorporation of the above ligands in the same complex. The coordination polymer, namely [Cu2(hmph)(N3)2(py)2]n, (I), including hmph2−, N3 and py, was synthesized under hydro­thermal conditions.

Experimental top

CAUTION! The metal–azide compound is potentially explosive and should be handled with care and in small amounts. All chemicals used were obtained from commercial sources and used without further purification. Elemental analyses for C, H and N were carried out on a German Elementary Vario EL III instrument. The FT–IR spectra were performed on a Nicolet Magna 750 F T–IR spectrometer using KBr pellets in the range 4000–400 cm−1. Thermogravimetric analysis was recorded on a NETZSCH STA 449 C unit at a heating rate of 10 K min−1 under a nitro­gen atmosphere. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns were collected by a Rigaku DMAX2500 X-ray diffractometer using Cu Kα radiation (λ = 0.154 nm). Magnetic data were obtained with a Quantum Design MPMS XL SQUID magnetometer. During the magnetic measurement, the powder sample was enwrapped by a film, then fixed in the capsule for measurement and the backgrounds of the film and capsule were corrected. Diamagnetic corrections for the complex were estimated from Pascal's constants.

Synthesis and crystallization top

A mixture of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O (121 mg, 0.5 mmol) and H2hmph (72 mg, 0.4 mmol) was dissolved in H2O (10 ml). Afterwards, NaN3 solution (0.5 ml, 1 mol l−1) and pyridine (0.4 ml) were added into above solution dropwise under ultrasonic agitation until a black–green solution was obtained. The above solution was then sealed into a Pyrex tube. After heating at 358 K for 48 h, the solution yielded strip-shaped crystals of (I) which were collected and washed with water. The formation of compound (I) strongly depends on the synthetic conditions (stoichiometry of rea­cta­nts and temperature) and the synthetic procedure followed (yield 67%, based on NaN3). Selected IR data (KBr pellet, cm−1): 2071 (b), 1607 (b), 1543 (b), 1542 (m), 1486 (w), 1447 (b), 1399 (b), 1295 (w), 1067 (w), 730 (m), 696 (m), 636 (w). Analysis calculated (%) for C19H16Cu2N8O4: C 41.68, H 2.95, N 20.47; found: C 41.50, H 2.92, N 20.11%.

Refinement top

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. H atoms were generated geometrically and held in the riding mode for the final refinement, with C—H = 0.95 (aromatic) or 0.99 Å (methyl­ene) and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq (C).

Results and discussion top

X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis reveals that [Cu2(hmph)(N3)2(py)2]n, (I), crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. As shown in Fig. 1(a), the asymmetric unit comprises two crystallographically independent CuII ions (Cu1 and Cu2), one hmph2− anion, two pyridine ligands and two azide anions. Each unique CuII ion lies in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment. The four basal sites of atom Cu1 are occupied by two carboxyl­ate O atoms [O1A and O4; symmetry code: (A) −x, −y + 1, −z + 1] from two hmph2− anions and two symmetry-equivalent N atoms [N6 and N6B;symmetry code: (B) −x + 1, −y, −z + 1] from two azide anions, while the apical site is ligated by one azide N atom (N5). The basal plane of atom Cu2 is composed of two pyridine N atoms (N1 and N2), one azide N atom (N5) and one carboxyl­ate O atom (O3), leaving the apical site occupied by one carboxyl­ate O atom (O2A). The two independent azide anions both adopt EO bridging modes. Atom N5 of an azide anion bridges Cu1 and Cu2 [Cu1—N5 = 2.244 (2) Å and Cu2—N5 = 1.978 (2) Å], while atom N6 atom of the other azide anion bridges two equivalent Cu1 atoms [Cu1—N6B = 1.996 (2) Å and Cu1—N6 = 2.009 (2) Å]. All the above Cu—N bond lengths match those observed in related compounds, though the Cu1—N5 bond length is longer than the others. Atoms Cu1 and Cu2 are triply bridged into a binuclear unit by one µ1,1-N3 anion and two µ1,1-syn-syn-COO groups, with the Cu1···Cu2 distance being 3.3271 (9) Å (Fig. 1b). Moreover, symmetry-equivalent atoms Cu1 and Cu1B are doubly bridged by two µ1,1-N3 anions [Cu1···Cu1B = 3.1264 (10) Å; Fig. 1b]. The Cu1—N5—Cu2 and Cu1—N6—Cu1B angles (θ) are 103.80 (10) and 102.62 (9)°, respectively, in close agreement with the minimum energy for θ 100°, respectively (Ruiz et al., 1998). As a result, a tetra­nuclear CuII unit is formed by two triple bridges (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 and one double bridges (µ1,1-N3)2 (Fig. 1b). Adjacent tetra­nuclear CuII units are doubly linked via two symmetry-equivalent hmph2− anions, resulting in a one-dimensional chain (Fig. 1c).

Neighbouring chains inter­act weakly through C—H···π inter­actions between the C18–H18 group and the C3–C8 ring (Fig. 2 and Table 3), leading to a two-dimensional supra­molecular layer lying parallel to the ab plane (Fig. 3). The hmph2− ligands are suspended from the two sides of the layers in up and down orientations. The Cg2···Cg2B [Cg2 is the centroid of the N1–C17 ring; symmetry code: (B) −x + 1, −y, −z + 2], with separation distance of 4.729 Å between neighbouring layers (Fig. 2). The perpendicular distances from Cg2 to the plane of the N1B–C17B ring is 3.825 Å. Possible weak ππ inter­actions between adjacent layers may contribute to the stability of the alignment of the layers along the c axis. Hydrogen bonds are observed between neighbouring layers (Fig. 4 and Table 4), which may play an important role in assembling the two-dimensional layers into a three-dimensional supra­molecular architecture (Fig. 5). The hydrogen bonds involve pyridine C–H groups as donors and terminal azide N atoms as acceptors, wherein N3C simultaneously accepts H atoms of the C15D—H15D and C19D—H19D groups, and atom N8 simultaneously accepts H atoms from the C19D—H19D and C18D—H18D groups (Fig. 4).

The combination of azide anion and co-ligand carboxyl­ate acid often afford mixed (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO) (Gao et al., 2011; Wang, Zhang et al., 2011), (µ1,1-N3)2(µ-syn-syn-COO) (Jia et al., 2011; Wang, Zhang et al., 2011; Ma et al., 2009) and (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 (Wang, Sun et al., 2011; Wang et al., 2010) bridges. When nitro­gen heterocyclic rings are employed as co-ligands, (µ1,1-N3)2 bridges (Li et al., 2010; Cheng et al., 2014) are often obtained if the nitro­gen heterocyclic ring is disabled by bridging metal ions. The above bridges usually bring about one-dimensional infinite –M–bridges–M– chains. In this system, (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 and (µ1,1-N3)2 are observed simultaneously in compound (I). But the generation of a (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 and (µ1,1-N3)2 bridged tetra­nuclear CuII unit rather than an –M–bridges–M– chain is rare and unexpected.

The phase purity of (I) was confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction analysis (XRD; Fig. 6). The peak positions of observed XRD patterns are in good agreement with those simulated from single-crystal X-ray data, indicating that the pure phase is obtained. The thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed in the range 298–1073 K under a nitro­gen atmosphere. The TGA curve is shown in Fig. S1 (see Supporting information) and exhibits a short plateau from 298 to 453 K, with nearly no loss of weight and subsequently begins to decompose rapidly.

The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibilities (χM) of (I) were measured in the range 2–300 K under 1000 Oe. Plots of χMT, χM and 1/χM versus T of (I) are presented in Fig. 7. The χMT value of 0.482 cm−3 K mol−1 per CuII ion at room temperature is larger than the expected value for an isolated CuII ion of spin S = 1/2 (the theoretical value is 0.375 cm3 K mol−1 with g = 2) (Gao et al., 2011; Yan et al., 2011). Upon decreasing the temperature, the χMT value remains almost constant until about 110 K and below this temperature down to 30 K decreases moderately. The χMT value descends steeply upon further cooling and attained a value of 0.034 cm3 K mol−1 at 2 K. The curve clearly indicates that dominant anti­ferromagnetic coupling is operating. In addition, the temperature dependence of χM−1 follows the Curie–Weiss law above 10 K and the linear fit by the equation 1/χM = (Tθ)/C gives C = 0.491 cm3 K mol−1 and θ = −4.531 K, which is consistent with the anti­ferromagnetic behaviour. In the structure of (I), the magneto-structure model of a tetra­nuclear CuII unit can be described as Cu2-JA-Cu1-JB-Cu1B-JA-Cu2B, where JB refers to the magnetic exchange mediated by the (µ1,1-N3)2 double bridges and JA for the magnetic exchange mediated by the (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 system. For CuII ions, EO-azide mediates ferromagnetic coupling for the angle of CuII–N3(EO)–CuII below critical value (104° in theory and 108° in experiment) and syn–syn carboxyl­ate bridge usually transmits anti­ferromagnetic exchange inter­action. The ferromagnetic coupling is estimated between the (µ1,1-N3)2 bridged Cu1 and Cu1B due to Cu1—N6—Cu1B angle 102.63°, which can account for the large χMT value at room temperature. The coupling inter­action between Cu1 and Cu2 bridged by (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 is ambiguous as µ1,1-N3 [Cu1–N5–Cu2 = 103.80 (10)°] and µ-syn-syn-COO mediate contrary coupling inter­actions, wherein the sign and value for JA depend on the result of the synergistic or competitive combination of these mechanisms. In view of the global anti­ferromagnetic nature of compound (I), (µ1,1-N3)(µ-syn-syn-COO)2 will mediate anti­ferromagnetic coupling if the (µ1,1-N3)2 mediate ferromagnetic coupling.

In conclusion, a new coordination polymer, [Cu2(hmph)(N3)2(py)2]n, (I), was synthesized successfully and characterized as a one-dimensional chain structure composed of tetra­nuclear CuII units bridged by (µ1,1-N3)(µ-synsyn-COO)2 and (µ1,1-N3)2, and exhibits dominant anti­ferromagnetic behaviour.

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.
