Mixed DMF and aqueous solution (15 ml) of CuCl2.2H2O (0.5 mmol) and 2,3-pyrazinedicarboxylic acid ((H2pzdc, 0.25 mmol) were slowly added into a methanolic (5 ml) solution of triethylene diamine (TED, 0.5 mmol); the resulting mixture was stirred for 5 minutes and allowed to stand at room temperature for about four days until blue single crystals were obtained.
H atoms of the water molecules were located in a difference Fourier map and were refined isotropically, with O—H and H—H distance restraints of 0.84 (1) Å and 1.37 (2) Å, respectively. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.93 Å) and allowed to ride on their parent atoms. The Uiso(H) values were set at 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(O).

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. |

Polymeric compounds play an important role in the field of molecular magnetism. Di- and polycarboxylates are capable of bridging and providing effective magnetic exchange pathways. Pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid (H2pzdc) has been widely applied to construct polymeric coordination compounds; their structures and magnetic properties were investigated (Li et al., 2004; Xiang et al., 2004; Hua & Liu, 2009; Lin et al., 2009; Tombul & Guven, 2009). We present here the structure of the title compound, {[Cu(pzdc)(DMF)].H2O}n, (I).
In the structure of compound (I), each Cu(II) atom is coordinated by an N atom of the pyrazine ring and a carboxylic O atom from one pzdc2- anion, two O atoms from two other pzdc2- anions, and O atom from DMF, forming a distorted square-pyramidal environment, as depicted in Fig. 1. The four atoms N1, O2, O5 and O3i form the basal plane, whereas the O3ii atom [symmetry code: (i) -x +1, y - 1/2, -z + 1; (ii) x, -y + 3/2, z -1/2] occupies the apical site with a longer Cu1—O3ii bond length of 2.378 (3) /%A. In the basal plane, the bond distances of Cu1—N1 and Cu1—O3i are 2.002 (3) and 1.958 (3) Å, which are shorter than those observed for the distorted square-pyramidal CuN2O3 coordination in a related structure of a Cu(II)pzdc derivative (Hua & Liu, 2009). The plane defined by carboxylic group O1—C1—C2—C3 is nearly coplanar to the pyrazine ring with the dihedral angle of 3.7 (7)°, while another carboxylate plane defined by the C2—C3—C6—O4 is approximately perpendicular to the pyrazine ring [dihedral angel of 92.9 (5)°]. This conformation was also observed in a series of other transition metal complexes formed with H2pzdc (Li et al., 2004; Xiang et al., 2004; Konar et al., 2004; Hua et al., 2009). Extensive hydrogen bonding interactions help to stabilize the structure. The carboxylate O atoms take part in a O—H···O hydrogen bonding and are acceptor atoms with O atoms of water molecules as donator atoms (Table 1).
