All chemicals were obtained from commerical sources and were used as obtained. 1.0 ml (1.0 M) Na2CO3 was added to an aqueous solution of 0.2351 g (1.0 mmol) NiCl2.6H2O in 8 ml H2O to yield green precipitate, which was separated by centrifugation and washed with distilled water for 5 times. The gathered precipitate was then transferred into a mixture solutions of methanol and water (1:1 V/V, 20 ml). Then 0.1163 g (0.5 mmol) 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid and 0.1015 g (0.5 mmol) 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate were added successively to the mixture solutions, which quickly produced green suspension. The resulting mixture was continued to stir for ca 30 min and then filtered green precipitate. The filtrate was allowed to stand at room temperature and slow evaporation for one month afforded green block-like crystals.
H atoms bonded to C atoms were palced in geometrically calculated position and were refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C). H atoms attached to O atoms were found in a difference Fourier synthesis and were refined using a riding model, with the O—H distances fixed as initially found and with Uiso(H) values set at 1.2 Ueq(O).
So far, the multi-carboxylate ligands such as benzene-, pyridine- and aliphatic carboxylic acid are widely used to construct the coordination polymers with interesting structures (Chen et al., 2008; Ghosh et al., 2004; Fabelo et al., 2008; Zhu et al., 2010). Among the various polycarboxylate ligands, butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid has been to be a good candidate due to it has four COOH groups which can be fully or patially deprotonated and its various bridging abilities and strong coordination tendency with transition metals to form versatile coordination polymers or supramolecular architecture. In this paper, we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1).
Within the asymmetric unit of the title compound exists one NiII cation, one 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand, half a butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate anion (BTC4-), three aqua ligands and three lattice water. The Ni atoms are each coordinated by two N atoms from one phen ligand, one oxygen atoms from one BTC4- anion and three aqua ligands to complete an octahedral NiN2O4 chromophore. The Ni–N/O distances lie in the range 2.017 (2)–2.091 (2) Å, and the trans- and cis bond angles fall in the ranges 80.2 (1)–97.7 (1)° and 168.9 (1)- 172.6 (1)°, respectively. The [Ni(H2O)3(phen)] moieties are pairwise bridged by the bis-monodentate BTC ligand to generate centrosymmetric dinuclear complex molecules [Ni2(H2O)6(phen)2(BTC)], which are arranged in pairs and the interdigitatal distance for phen ligands of the adjacent dinuclear molecules fall in the regions 3.642 (2) Å—3.781 (2) Å, which indicates that the complex molecules are assembled into two-dimensional supramolecular layers parallel to (011) by π–π stacking interactions (Figure 2). Due to the aqua ligands donate hydrogen atoms to the carboxylate oxygen atoms to form interlayers hydrogen bonds, the two-dimensional layers are assembled into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture.

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. |

So far, the multi-carboxylate ligands such as benzene-, pyridine- and aliphatic carboxylic acid are widely used to construct the coordination polymers with interesting structures (Chen et al., 2008; Ghosh et al., 2004; Fabelo et al., 2008; Zhu et al., 2010). Among the various polycarboxylate ligands, butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic acid has been to be a good candidate due to it has four COOH groups which can be fully or patially deprotonated and its various bridging abilities and strong coordination tendency with transition metals to form versatile coordination polymers or supramolecular architecture. In this paper, we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1).
Within the asymmetric unit of the title compound exists one NiII cation, one 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand, half a butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate anion (BTC4-), three aqua ligands and three lattice water. The Ni atoms are each coordinated by two N atoms from one phen ligand, one oxygen atoms from one BTC4- anion and three aqua ligands to complete an octahedral NiN2O4 chromophore. The Ni–N/O distances lie in the range 2.017 (2)–2.091 (2) Å, and the trans- and cis bond angles fall in the ranges 80.2 (1)–97.7 (1)° and 168.9 (1)- 172.6 (1)°, respectively. The [Ni(H2O)3(phen)] moieties are pairwise bridged by the bis-monodentate BTC ligand to generate centrosymmetric dinuclear complex molecules [Ni2(H2O)6(phen)2(BTC)], which are arranged in pairs and the interdigitatal distance for phen ligands of the adjacent dinuclear molecules fall in the regions 3.642 (2) Å—3.781 (2) Å, which indicates that the complex molecules are assembled into two-dimensional supramolecular layers parallel to (011) by π–π stacking interactions (Figure 2). Due to the aqua ligands donate hydrogen atoms to the carboxylate oxygen atoms to form interlayers hydrogen bonds, the two-dimensional layers are assembled into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture.
