The organic component in the title compound, 2-(2,5-di(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)pyridine, was synthesized according to a previously reported procedure (Anastassiadou et al., 2000). Single crystals of the platinum complex were prepared at room temperature by slow diffusion of a CH3CN/H2O (2 ml, 1:1 v/v) solution containing both Eu(NO3)3 . 6H2O (0.034 g, 0.08 mmol) and K2Pt(CN)4 (0.030 g, 0.08 mmol) into a CH2Cl2 (2 ml) solution of 2-(2,5-di(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)pyridine (0.024 g, 0.08 mmol). After two weeks, pale yellow crystals were obtained [Yield: 40%]. IR and TGA details are given in the archived CIF.
The C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms [aryl C—H = 0.95 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)]. The pyridinium N—H+ and water H atoms were located in difference Fourier maps. They were refined with distance restraints of 0.840 (1)Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O, N). For the refinement of the water molecules a constraint has also been employed for the H—O—H bond angles (DANG = 1.35 (1) Å). In the final difference Fourier map a large residual density peak, 3.10 eÅ-3, and hole, -2.26 eÅ-3, were found near the Pt atom.

Experimental. IR and TGA details for the title compound: IR(KBr, cm-1): 3406, 3385, 3268, 3100, 2129, 1661, 1596, 1501, 1447, 1235, 1139, 1096, 777, 703. TGA: Calcd. for 4H2O: 7.42. Found: 7.69% (298 - 385 K). |
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. |

Hydrogen bond based inorganic–organic hybrid materials are receiving continuous interest because of their structural, magnetic, optical and electrical properties (Sanchez et al., 2005; Yao et al., 2010; Wang et al., 2010; Lebeau et al., 2011; Pardo et al., 2011; Du et al., 2013). An interesting approach for the preparation of such materials consists in the utilization of supramolecular synthons capable of forming O—H···O, O—H···N and N—H···O hydrogen bonds, through which organic cations and anionic metal complexes are linked to form crystalline inorganic–organic hybrid solids (Crawford et al., 2004; Dechambenoit et al., 2006; Maynard & Sykora, 2008). As a further contribution to this filed of research we report herein on the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound consists of one organic cation of the composition [(C18H14N5)]+, which is located in a general position, half of an independent [Pt(CN)4]2- anion, which is located on a crystallographic inversion center, and two water molecules of crystallization (Fig. 1). The Pt atom has a square-planar coordination environment with Pt—C(cyanido) distances ranging from 1.992 (4) to 2.000 (4) Å. Although two of the three pyridine substituents are linked by an intramolecular N5+—H5'···N4 hydrogen bond (Table 1), the organic component is essentially nonplanar, as shown by the dihedral angles of 10.3 (2), 6.60 (19) and 15.66 (18)°, respectively, formed between the central imidazole ring plane and the pyridine substituents in the 2-, 4- and 5-positions.
In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by O—H···O, O—H···N and N—H···O hydrogen bonds forming a three-dimensional network (Table 1 and Fig. 2). Within the network, the organic cations are stacked through a series of π—π interactions involving the imidazole and pyridinium rings [Cg1···Cg1i distance = 3.359 (2) Å; Cg1···Cg2ii distance = 3.559 (2) Å; Cg3···Cg3iii distance = 4.023 (3) Å; Cg2···Cg3i distance = 3.929 (2) Å; Cg1= N1/C1/N2/C3/C2; Cg2 = N4/C9-C13 and Cg3 = N3/C4—C8; symmetry codes: (i) –x+1, -y+1, -z; (ii) –x+1, y, 1- z+1/2; (iii)-x+1/2, - y+3/2, -z]. Additionally, there are a number of C—H···O and C—H···N contacts present, thus providing additional stabilization to the crystal lattice (Table 1 and Fig. 2).
