[Diphenyldi(pyrazol-1-yl)methane]dinitratocobalt(II)

In the title compound, [Co(NO₃)₂(C₁₉H₁₆N₄)], the diphenyldipyrazolylmethane ligand coordinates to Co^II in a bidentate fashion forming a six-membered ring with an approximate boat configuration. The mean planes of the two pyrazolyl rings are separated by an angle of 39.6 (2)°. The coordination at the Co^II center is best described as distorted octahedral with two NO₃⁻ anions serving as bidentate ligands for charge balance. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two nitrate rings is 85.0 (1)° and that between the mean planes of the two phenyl rings is 73.7 (1)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H

O and intramolecular C—H

N hydrogen-bond interactions.

Comment top

The metal chemistry of diphenyldipyrazolylmethane ligands was first explored by Shiu et al. (1993) who crystallized two complexes of the 3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl variant with molybdenum. Similar complexes with Pd^II were synthesized by Tsuji et al. (1999) and Reger et al. (2004) who generated complexes with Ag^I . More recently, compounds with diphenyldipyrazolylmethane ligands complexed with Cu^I/II (Shaw et al. 2004;2005), Ni^II (Baho & Zargarian, 2007a; 2007b), and Zn^II (Shaw et al. 2009) have appeared in the literature.

In the title compound, Co(C₁₉H₁₆N₄)(NO₃)₂, the diphenyldipyrazolylmethane ligand coordinates to the Co^II in a bidentate fashion forming a six-membered ring with an approximate boat configuration (Fig. 1). The mean planes of the two pyrazolyl rings are separated by 39.55 (12)°. The geometry at the Co^II is best described as a distorted octahedral with two NO₃^- anions serving as bidentate ligands for charge balance. The N2 and N4 atoms are the bidentate groups that form a heteroscorpionate type structure coordinated to a d²sp³ hybridized Co^IIion. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two nitrato rings is 84.52 (10)° and between the mean planes of the two phenyl rings is 73.71 (6)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H···O and intramolecular C—H···N hydrogen bond interactions (Fig. 2; Table 1).

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared by reacting cobalt(II) nitrate hexahydrate (1.64 mmoles) with diphenyldipyrazolylmethane (1.97 mmoles) in ethanol (100 ml). After 24 h of stirring, the solution was evaporated under reduced pressure to afford a red solid. Crystals were isolated by redissolving the solid in dichloromethane and layering with hexanes.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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.
