The title compound was prepared by the reaction of two equivalents of 1,2-diamino-4-chlorobenzene with zinc acetate dihydrate in refluxing ethanol. Slow evaporation of the solvent resulted in the formation of layers of extremely thin, colorless plates. The samples used for analysis were cut from carefully peeled apart layers.
Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. As a result of the unsymmetrical nature of the 1,2-diamino-4-chlorobenzene ligand, the chloro substitutent was refined with a site occupancy factor of one-half in each of two positions. The ethanol solvate is rotationally disordered over two positions. It was refined with the C—C and C—O distances restrained to 1.54 and 1.43 Å, respectively, using DFIX. The anisotropic displacement parameters of the minor component were constrained to the same refined values of the major component using EADP. The refined occupancies of the major and minor contributors are 0.696 (11) and 0.304 (11), respectively. The maximum shift/error for the disorder occupancies and the coordinates and anisotropic displacement parameters of the ethanol solvate were 0.000. In the final set of refinement cycles, the occupancies of the major and minor components were fixed at 0.7 and 0.3, respectively. The maximum residual electron density (0.98 e3) and the deepest hole (-1.05 e3) are located 1.10 Å and 0.86 Å, respectively, from the Zn2 atom.
All hydrogen atoms except those associated with the disordered ethanol solvent molecule were observed in difference fourier maps. The carbon-bonded hydrogen atoms were refined using a riding model with a C—H distance of 0.98 Å for the methyl carbon atoms and 0.95 Å for the phenyl carbon atoms. The atomic coordinates for the nitrogen- and oxygen-bonded hydrogen atoms were refined using the restraints DFIX = 0.84 Å for O—H and 0.91 Å for N—H.
The methyl C—H and the O—H hydrogen atom isotropic displacement parameters were set using the approximation Uiso = 1.5Ueq. All other hydrogen atom isotropic displacement parameters were set using the approximation Uiso = 1.2Ueq.
Because of their large internal surface areas and uniformly structured cavities which small molecules may occupy, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of inherent interest in areas such as gas storage, catalysis, chemical sensors and molecular separation (Dey et al., 2014; Kreno et al., 2012; Farha & Hupp, 2010). The title compound is an example of a one-dimensional MOF in which space between polymeric chains provides room for incorporation of small, non-covalently bonded molecules. To our knowledge, this compound is the first example of a mixed acetato and monodentetate diamine coordinated zinc compound with a one-dimensional chain structure.
The title compound exhibits a laddered-chain structure. The atom-labeling scheme for the basic repeating unit is shown in figure 1. Only the major contributor to the disordered ethanol solvate molecule is shown and only one of the two half-occupied sites of the chlorine substitutent is represented. (The other half-occupied chlorine is bound to C4.) The disorder of the chlorine results from a combination of a crystallographically-imposed inversion center between adjacent chlorodiaminobenzene ligands and the unsymmetrical substitution of the diamine ligand (i.e., Zn coordination of one of the nitrogen atoms puts the chlorine atom in one of the occupied sites and coordination of the other nitrogen atom puts the chlorine atom in the other partially occupied site).
Figure 2 shows a view of the polymeric chain in which the distorted octahedral and tetrahedral coordination spheres of the zinc ions are visible. Two asymmetric units make up the repeating motif, a Zn4(µ-OH)2(µ-acetato-κ2-O:O')4 core in which each of two distorted-octahedrally-coordinated Zn ions are bridged to a distorted-tetrahedrally-coordinated Zn ion by two acetate ligands and one hydroxide ligand. The octahedral coordination sphere is completed by a monodentate 1,2-diamino-4-chlorobenzene ligand and a third bridging acetato-κ2-O:O' ligand. The tetrahedral coordination sphere is completed by a bridging acetato-κ2-O:O' ligand.
Coordination to the bridging hydroxide ligands is decidedly unsymmetrical. The Zn1–O1 bond distances are 2.079 (5) Å and 2.147 (5) Å with the shorter bond distance corresponding to the hydroxide ligand trans to the diaminobenzene ligand (see Figure 2). The Zn2–O1 bond distance is 1.937 (5) Å. The Zn1–O1–Zn1i angle is 97.7 (2)o and the Zn2–O1–Zn1 and Zn2–O1–Zn1i angles are 127.8 (2)o and 101.7 (2)o. The tetrahedral coordination sphere is highly distorted. The O–Zn—O angles range from 94.7 (2)o to 130.8 (2)o, respectively.
Space between the chains is occupied by approximately two-fold rotationally-disordered ethanol molecules (see figure 3). Calculations using PLATON (Spek, 2009) show that the ethanol solvate molecule occupies a void with a volume of 224.1 Å3. Single crystals of the compound were subjected to vacuum at room temperature for extended periods followed by data collection. Subsequent structure solution revealed that the solvate remained trapped in the void. Attempts to heat crystals to 110oC under vacuum resulted in decomposition. Hydrogen bonds between the hydroxide and ligand major and minor components of the disordered ethanol solvate molecule are observed and may account for the tenacity of the ethanol binding. The HO···O distances are 2.807 (11) Å and 2.83 (2) Å and the O—H···O distances observed are 1.99 (3) and 2.03 (4) Å for the major and minor components of the disordered ethanol.
In addition to the hydrogen bonds involving the solvate molecule, N—H···O and N—H···N hydrogen bonding involving the uncoordinated amine group as the donor moiety and acetate ligands and the coordinated amine group as the acceptors are observed. Pertinent metrics involving these interactions are found in Table 1.
The benzene ring of the diamine ligand is planar with the atom having the largest deviation being C2, which sits 0.011 (6) Å above the plane. The two amine nitrogen atoms deviate only slightly from the benzene ring plane with N1 being 0.048 (13) Å and N2 being 0.005 (0.012) Å above the plane.
The identical synthetic strategy employed using symmetrically substituted diamines results in a molecular species (c.f., Geiger, 2012). We have prepared an analogue of the title compound employing 1,2-diamino-4-cyanobenzene as the diamine. The structure of the compound is virtually the same (although not isomorphous), but all attempts to obtain a structure of publishable quality have failed. Whether or not the use of unsymmetrically-substituted 1,2-diaminobenzene is a prerequisite for the formation of a Zn MOF of this structureal type is yet to be determined. We are exploring other unsymmetrically substuted diamines in hopes of better understanding this phenomenon.

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. |

Because of their large internal surface areas and uniformly structured cavities which small molecules may occupy, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of inherent interest in areas such as gas storage, catalysis, chemical sensors and molecular separation (Dey et al., 2014; Kreno et al., 2012; Farha & Hupp, 2010). The title compound is an example of a one-dimensional MOF in which space between polymeric chains provides room for incorporation of small, non-covalently bonded molecules. To our knowledge, this compound is the first example of a mixed acetato and monodentetate diamine coordinated zinc compound with a one-dimensional chain structure.
The title compound exhibits a laddered-chain structure. The atom-labeling scheme for the basic repeating unit is shown in figure 1. Only the major contributor to the disordered ethanol solvate molecule is shown and only one of the two half-occupied sites of the chlorine substitutent is represented. (The other half-occupied chlorine is bound to C4.) The disorder of the chlorine results from a combination of a crystallographically-imposed inversion center between adjacent chlorodiaminobenzene ligands and the unsymmetrical substitution of the diamine ligand (i.e., Zn coordination of one of the nitrogen atoms puts the chlorine atom in one of the occupied sites and coordination of the other nitrogen atom puts the chlorine atom in the other partially occupied site).
Figure 2 shows a view of the polymeric chain in which the distorted octahedral and tetrahedral coordination spheres of the zinc ions are visible. Two asymmetric units make up the repeating motif, a Zn4(µ-OH)2(µ-acetato-κ2-O:O')4 core in which each of two distorted-octahedrally-coordinated Zn ions are bridged to a distorted-tetrahedrally-coordinated Zn ion by two acetate ligands and one hydroxide ligand. The octahedral coordination sphere is completed by a monodentate 1,2-diamino-4-chlorobenzene ligand and a third bridging acetato-κ2-O:O' ligand. The tetrahedral coordination sphere is completed by a bridging acetato-κ2-O:O' ligand.
Coordination to the bridging hydroxide ligands is decidedly unsymmetrical. The Zn1–O1 bond distances are 2.079 (5) Å and 2.147 (5) Å with the shorter bond distance corresponding to the hydroxide ligand trans to the diaminobenzene ligand (see Figure 2). The Zn2–O1 bond distance is 1.937 (5) Å. The Zn1–O1–Zn1i angle is 97.7 (2)o and the Zn2–O1–Zn1 and Zn2–O1–Zn1i angles are 127.8 (2)o and 101.7 (2)o. The tetrahedral coordination sphere is highly distorted. The O–Zn—O angles range from 94.7 (2)o to 130.8 (2)o, respectively.
Space between the chains is occupied by approximately two-fold rotationally-disordered ethanol molecules (see figure 3). Calculations using PLATON (Spek, 2009) show that the ethanol solvate molecule occupies a void with a volume of 224.1 Å3. Single crystals of the compound were subjected to vacuum at room temperature for extended periods followed by data collection. Subsequent structure solution revealed that the solvate remained trapped in the void. Attempts to heat crystals to 110oC under vacuum resulted in decomposition. Hydrogen bonds between the hydroxide and ligand major and minor components of the disordered ethanol solvate molecule are observed and may account for the tenacity of the ethanol binding. The HO···O distances are 2.807 (11) Å and 2.83 (2) Å and the O—H···O distances observed are 1.99 (3) and 2.03 (4) Å for the major and minor components of the disordered ethanol.
In addition to the hydrogen bonds involving the solvate molecule, N—H···O and N—H···N hydrogen bonding involving the uncoordinated amine group as the donor moiety and acetate ligands and the coordinated amine group as the acceptors are observed. Pertinent metrics involving these interactions are found in Table 1.
The benzene ring of the diamine ligand is planar with the atom having the largest deviation being C2, which sits 0.011 (6) Å above the plane. The two amine nitrogen atoms deviate only slightly from the benzene ring plane with N1 being 0.048 (13) Å and N2 being 0.005 (0.012) Å above the plane.
The identical synthetic strategy employed using symmetrically substituted diamines results in a molecular species (c.f., Geiger, 2012). We have prepared an analogue of the title compound employing 1,2-diamino-4-cyanobenzene as the diamine. The structure of the compound is virtually the same (although not isomorphous), but all attempts to obtain a structure of publishable quality have failed. Whether or not the use of unsymmetrically-substituted 1,2-diaminobenzene is a prerequisite for the formation of a Zn MOF of this structureal type is yet to be determined. We are exploring other unsymmetrically substuted diamines in hopes of better understanding this phenomenon.
