A mixture of 4,4'-bipyridine (0.1 mmol), trimethylammonioacetate (0.1 mmol), Co(SO4)2·7H2O (0.1 mmol), 1,2-ethanediol (2.0 ml) and water (1.0 ml) were placed in a thick Pyrex tube. The tube was sealed and heated at 353 K for 3 d to give red block-like crystals of the title compound. Analysis found: C 33.76, H 4.80, N 7.96%; calculated for C12H20CoN2O9S: C 33.73, H 4.72, N 6.56%. FT–IR data (KBr, cm-1): 3400 (m, b), 3070 (w), 1604 (m), 1531 (w), 1488 (w), 1411 (m), 1430 (w), 1218 (m), 1120 (s), 806 (m).
The H atoms of CH and CH2 groups were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms [C—H = 0.93 and 0.97 Å, respectively, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)]. The H atoms of OH groups and water molecules were located in a difference Fourier map and refined with restraints on the O—H bond lengths.

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. |

Supramolecular assembly and crystal engineering of metal-organic coordination frames have recently attracted great interest, owing to their interesting structural topologies and potential application as functional materials (Batten & Robson, 1998; Eddaoudi et al., 2001). It is well established that two main weak interactions, viz. hydrogen bonds (Aakeröy & Beatty, 1998) and π–π interactions (Ning et al., 1999), play vital roles in molecular recognition and supramolecular chemistry. Some interesting coordination polymers assembled with bipy have been reported, showing various structural motifs, including two-dimensional layers (Carlucci or Calucci et al., 1997; Tong et al., 1998) and three-dimensional nets (Lu et al., 1998; Hagrman, et al., 1998; Kondo, et al., 1999; Greve et al. 2003; Zhang et al., 1999). We have synthesized the title compound with CoSO4 and bipy via solvothermal reactions in the hope of obtaining complexes retaining some of the solvent molecules, capable of hydrogen bonding. We report here the crystal structure of the title new polymeric compound containing 1,2-ethanediol solvent molecules, {[Co(C10H8N2)(H2O)3(SO)4]·C2H6O2}n, (I).
Part of the structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. Each CoII center is situated on an inversion center with an octahedral geometry (Table 1). The bipy ligand functions as bridging ligands to adjacent CoII centers, leading to the formation of linear –Co–bipy–Co– chains in which the separations of neighboring CoII centers connected by one bipy ligand within each chain are 11.405 (s.u.?) Å, and the nearest Co···Co(x - 1, y, z) inter-chain separation is 7.523 (s.u.?) Å. The geometry of the bipy, water and sulfate ligands is in very good agreement with those observed in other cobalt complexes, e.g. [Co(bipy)(H2O)3(SO4)]·2H2O (Lu et al., 1998).
Adjacent chains are each arranged in a cross-like fashion, intersecting at the centers of the bipy ligands, resulting in a three-dimensional supramolecular array. The rhombic channels (12.016 × 10.777 Å) running along the a axis (Fig. 2) are filled with the sulfate anions and 1,2-ethanediol molecules. The structure of the resulting array is predominantly directed by π–π stacking interactions between the bipy bridges and numerous classical hydrogen-bonding interactions, such as O—H···O involving the water, sulfate ligands and 1,2-ethanediol solvent molecules (Fig. 3 and Table 2). The two pyridyl rings of each bipy ligand are coplanar with each other. The close inter-chain bipy rings (N1BC/C1BC–C5BC and N2A/C6A–C10 A) have a face-to-face distance of 4.042 Å, showing significant π–π stacking interaction (Fig. 3). It is noteworthy that such an arrangement of the title compound is different from those of three recently documented one-dimensional coordination polymers with analogous coordination chain skeletons, in which the chains in adjacent layers are rotated by 60° to provide helical staircase networks (Hagrman et al., 1998; Lu et al., 1998; Kondo et al., 1999). It is also different from another arrangement of one-dimensional coordination chains with a similar chain skeleton, e.g. in [Co(bipy)(O2CCH3)2(H2O)2] (Zhang et al., 1999) and [Co(bipy)(H2O)4][NO3]2.bipy (Carlucci or Calucci et al., 1997), in which the adjacent chains are only interconnected by hydrogen bonds, resulting in three-dimensional networks.
