The crystal structure of title compound, [Eu(NO3)3(C15H15NO2)2], contains two Schiff base 6-meth­oxy-2-[(4-methyl­phen­yl)imino­meth­yl]phenolate (L) ligands and three independent nitrate ions that chelate to the europium(III) ion via the O atoms. The coordination number of the EuIII ion is ten. The L ligands chelate with a strong Eu—O(deprotonated phenolate) bond and a weak Eu—O(meth­oxy) contact, the latter can be inter­preted as the apices of the bicapped square-anti­prismatic EuIII polyhedron. Intra­molecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds occur.

Comment top

It has well been confirmed that Schiff bases are important in multiple fields such as chemistry and biochemistry owing to their biological activities (Zhao et al., 2005). Schiff base complexes prepared by ligands from substituted o-vanillin have been absorbed considerable attention in the past decades due to the intriguing biological activities of o-vanillin and the convenience in Schiff bases synthesis (Burrows & Bailar, 1966). Interested in this field, we have been engaged in a major effort directed toward the development of syntheses of new analogous Schiff bases derived from o-vanillin and their rare metal complexes. In a few of articles we have reported our partial research results (Zhao et al., 2007; Xian et al. 2008; Li et al. 2008; Liu et al. 2009). Herein, we describe a new EuIII complex.

The structure of the title complex is shown in Fig.1, and the coordination environment of EuIII is shown in Fig. 2. In this complex the EuIII is eight-coordinated by O atoms, six of which come from three nitrate ions and two come from the Schiff base ligands (HL). The HL ligands coordinate to the EuIII ion using oxygen atoms from deprotonated phenolic hydroxyl groups. The ten Eu—O bond distances are listed in Table 1 (including weak Eu—O interactions). The distances between EuIII and methoxyl O atoms (2.743Å and 2.748Å for Eu—O2 and Eu—O4) are similar with reported complexe (Zhao et al., 2007).

The hydrogen bonds and π···π weak non-covalent interactions lend stability to the structure. The hydrogen bonds are listed in Table 2 and the stacking plot of this compound is shown in Fig. 3. There is π···π interactions exist in the crystal between symmetry-related molecules. In HL ligands, the proton of the phenolic hydroxyl group is considered to have transferred to N-imine atom, which involving in an intramolecular hydrogen bond (Table 2).

Experimental top

Reagents and solvents used were of commercially available quality and without purified before using. The Schiff base ligand 2-[(4- methylphenyl)iminomethyl]-6-methoxy-phenol was prepared by condensation of o-vanillin and p-methylaniline with a high yield and which was purified by recrystallization in ethanol. The compound (1) was obtained by adding Eu(NO3)3 (1 mmol, dissolved in ethanol) to N-salicylidene-p-toluidine (2 mmol) in ethanol solution. The mixture solution was stirred at room temperature for 8 h to obtain a purplish red solution. At last, the deposit was filtered out and the solution was kept for evaporating. The red crystal was formed after several days.

Refinement top

The structure was solved by direct methods and successive Fourier difference synthesis. The H atoms bonded to C and N atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model [aliphatic C—H =0.96 Å (Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C)), aromatic C—H = 0.93 Å (Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)) and N—H = 0.86 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).

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.
