[CoII(OEP)] (Scheidt & Tyrk, 1994) (100 mg, 0.17 mmol) and nitrobenzaldehyde (190 mg, 1.26 mmol) in 25 ml of chlorobenzene were stirred over night at room temperature. The color changes from red-pink to dark red and crystals of complex (I) were prepared by slow diffusion of hexanes into the chlorobenzene solution.
All H atoms attached to C atoms were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.96 Å (methyl), 0.97 Å (methylene) or 0.93 Å (aromatic) with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(Caromatic, methylene) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(Cmethyl). The coordinates of the H atom attached to the aldehyde function have been refined freely with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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 > 2σ(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. |

In continuation of our research on the crystal structures of porphyrin complexes (Ben Moussa et al., 2011; Dhifet et al., 2010) we herein report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound. The x unit contains one half molecule of [CoII(OEP)] and a whole molecule of nitrobenzaldehyde.
For our derivative, the average equatorial cobalt-pyrrole nitrogen atoms distance Co—Np [1.972 (4) Å] is typical for a Co(II) octaethylporphyrin where the porphyrin core is nearly planar (Figure 1) (Scheidt & Tyrk, 1994) and similar to the value of 1.969 (2) Å found in the [CoII(OEP)].TNFM (TNFM = (2, 4, 7-trinitrofluoreylidene)malontrile) (Smirnov et al., 1998) and 1.986 (14) Å in the [Co(F28TPP)].2tol complex (Tol = toluene and F28TPP = tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin) (Olmstead et al., 2003).
It is known that OEP metalloporphyrins can be dimerized as is the case of the [FeIII(OEP)(NO)]+ complex (Ellison et al., 2000). For this species the distance between two adjacent porphyrinato mean plans is 3.41 Å which indicated a strong π-π interaction. This complex forms a tight cofacial π-π dimer in the solid state.The most interesting feature of (I), is the rather strong π-interaction between the cobalt metal of the [CoII(OEP)] and the centroid of the phenyl rings of the nitrobenzaldehyde molecule (Figure 1) where the Co···Cg intermolecular distance is 3.508 Å (Cg is the centroid of the phenyl ring of the NBA molecule) and the angle between this distance and the perpendicular from the cobalt to the plane of the phenyl is 23.39 ° (Table 2). The cobalt atom is nearly perpendicular to the C101 atom (Figure 2). This structure present a striking resemblance with the one of the [CoII(F28TPP)].2tol complex (Olmstead et al., 2003) where the cobalt atom is centered roughly at the midpoint at the two adjacent carbons bonds in the toluene rings and the Co—C distances are 3.05 and 3.13 Å. It is noteworthy that the structure of (I) consists of columns that contain interleaved molecules of NBA and [CoII(OEP)] which are stacked a long the crystallographic a axis (Figure 3).
A unique C—H···O (nitrobenzaldehyde) intramoleculair hydrogen bond of 1.82 (7) Å is found in the structure (Table 1).
