Bis{4-chloro-N′-[phenyl(2-pyridyl)methylidene]benzohydrazidato-κ²N′,O}cobalt(III) nitrate methanol disolvate

In the title compound, [Co(C₁₉H₁₃ClN₃O)₂]NO₃·2CH₃OH, the central Co^III atom in the cation is surrounded by two tridentate ligands in a distorted octahedral fashion by four N and two O atoms. Classical O—H

O hydrogen bonds link both methanol solvent molecules with the nitrate anion.

Comment top

The Co^III complex with the oxygen-containing Schiff-base ligand is important because of their ability to bind dioxygen. Among them, the most wanted targets include the artificial blood and respiratory systems. A novel aspect lies in the structural versatility of hexadentate Schiff-bases versus. imidazolidine complexes manifesting itself in a stabilization of various structural and optical isomers depending upon the chemical hardness of the metal centre (Herchel & Boca, 2005; Gavrilova et al., 2002).

Our recent work indicated the N,O-donor tridentate ligand is suitable for the synthesis of spin-crossover materials (Wu et al., 2009). One of the examples is reported by us, which interestingly showed the mixed-spin state and synergy between spin transition and magnetic interaction. Here, for the title compound, we used 2(E)-1-[(4-chlorophenyl)carbonyl]-2-[phenyl(pyridin-2-yl)methylidene] diazanide as ligand, a typical rigid tridentate donor to synthesize a mononuclear compound, and we report the crystal structure of the complex [Co(C₁₉H₁₃N₃OCl)₂]⁺(NO₃)^-(CH₃OH)₂ (Fig. 1). The coordination environments of Co^III ions are completed by two ligands with average Co—N bond length of 1.885 Å and Co—O 1.907 Å (Table 1). Classical hydrogen bonds O—H···O exist between both methanol solvent molecules and the nitrate anion with D···A distances between 2.747 (11) Å and 2.963 (12) Å (Table 2).

The temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility was measured down to 1.8 K. In the χ.T versus T plot (Fig. 2), χ.T reaches a zero value within the whole temperature region, which is consistent with S = 0 ground state for cobalt(III).

Experimental top

A methanolic solution (25 ml) containing the ligand (0.2 mmol, 0.066 g) was added dropwise to Co(NO₃)₂.6H₂O (0.1 mmol, 0.029 g). After stirring for 15 minutes, the dark solution was filtered. Red block-shaped crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction were obtained by evaporating the resulting filtration in air for several days (yield: 56.2%). Anal calc (%). for C₄₀H₃₄Cl₂CoN₇O₇: H 4.01 C 56.22 N 11.47. Found: H 4.12 C 56.32 N 11.21. The magnetic susceptibility χ was measured with a Quantum Design MPMS-5S SQUID magnetometer. Data were corrected for the diamagnetic contribution calculated from Pascal's constants.

Special details top

Experimental. The magnetic measurements were performed on Quantum Design SQUID, MPMS-5S magnetometer.

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.
