Dichlorido(N,N-diethyl-4-{[(quinolin-2-yl)methylidene]amino-κ²N,N′}aniline)mercury(II)

In the mononuclear title complex, [HgCl₂(C₂₀H₂₁N₃)], synthesized from the quinoline-derived Schiff base N¹,N¹-diethyl-N⁴-(quinolin-2-ylmethylidene)benzene-1,4-diamine (QMBD), the coordination geometry around the Hg²⁺ atom is distorted tetrahedral, comprising two Cl atoms [Hg—Cl = 2.3654 (19) and 2.4394 (18) Å] and two N-atom donors from the QMBD ligand, viz. one imine and quinoline [Hg—N = 2.334 (5) and 2.340 (5) Å, respectively]. In the crystal, weak C—H

Cl hydrogen bonds and weak π–π aromatic ring stacking interactions [minimum ring-centroid separation = 3.680 (4) Å] give an overall three-dimensional network.

Comment top

Mercury is one of the most prevalent toxic metals in the environment and gains access to the body orally or dermally, causing cell dysfunction that consequently leads to health problems (Mandal et al., 2012). Quinolyl derivatives of Schiff bases are important building blocks for many important compounds widely used in biological applications such as antioxidative, anticancer, fluorescent probe agents in industry, in coordination chemistry and in catalysis (Motswainyana et al., 2013; Das et al., 2013; Song et al., 2011; Jursic et al., 2002). The synthesis of a complex of mercury(II) using the quinoline aldehyde derivative of the Schiff base N¹,N¹-diethyl-N⁴- (quinolin-2-ylmethylene-1,4-diamine (QMBD) has not previously been reported. The title Hg^II complex with QMBD, [Hg(C₂₀H₂₁N₃)Cl₂] has now been synthesized and the structure is reported herein.

In the title mononuclear complex (Figs. 1, 2) the HgCl₂N₂ coordination geometry is distorted tetrahedral, comprising two Cl-atoms [Hg1—Cl1 and Hg1—Cl2 = 2.3654 (19) and 2.4394 (18) Å respectively] and two N-atom donors from the QMBD ligand, one imine [Hg1–N2 = 2.334 (5) Å] and the other quinoline [Hg1—N1 = 2.340 (5) Å]. The observed Hg—Cl and Hg—N bond lengths and bond angles are considered normal for this type of Hg^II complex, e.g. (Marjani et al., 2009; Faizi & Sen, 2014). In the crystal, weak C12—H···Cl2ⁱ [3.703 (7) Å] and C15—H···Cl1ⁱⁱ [3.715 (7) Å hydrogen bonds (Table 1) and π–π aromatic ring stacking interactions [minimum ring centroid separation between the quinoline ring moiety defined by atoms N1–C9 = 3.680 (4) Å] give an overall three-dimensional framework structure (Figs. 3, 4).

Experimental top

The iminoquinolyl compound N¹,N¹-diethyl-N⁴-(quinolin-2-ylmethylidene)benzene-1,4-diamine (QMBD) was prepared by reacting 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde with a substituted aniline and was obtained in very good yields. This compound was characterized by FT—IR, NMR and ESI-Mass spectroscopy. A mixture of QMBD (0.10 g, 0.33 mmol), mercury(II) chloride (0.09 g, 0.33 mmol) and ethanol (5 ml) were stirred vigorously for 1 h, after which the precipitate was filtered off and redissolved in dimethylformamide. Crystals of the title complex suitable for X-ray analysis was obtained within 3 days by slow evaporation of the DMF solvent.

Special details top

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.
