Manifestations of noncovalent interactions in the solid state. Dimeric and polymeric self-assembly in imidazolium salts via face-to-face cation—cation π-stacking

Abstract

X-ray crystallographic investigation of the tertiary structure of simple 1-methylimidazolium (1-Meim) salts reveals that cation—cation face-to-face π—stacking with interplanar separations in the range typically seen for molecule—molecule and molecule—cation interactions are possible. Two salts are reported. 1-Meim-CF₃SO₃, 1, exists as a centrosymmetric dimer with an interplanar separation of only 3.16 Å. The two imidazolium rings are slipped to the extent that the interaction can be regarded as a manifestation of C—H…C—H dipole interactions. 1-Meim-NO₃ exists as a one-dimensional (1-D) polymer with interplanar separations of 3.65 Å. The cations are not as severely slipped as for 1 and the interactions can be regarded as the result of cation—cation and anion—anion complementary electrostatics. Semi-empirical calculations are used to rationalize the π-π stacking in both 1 and 2. Crystal data: 1-Meim-CF₃SO₃, 1, triclinic, P1, a=6.416(3) Å, b=7.617(4) Å, c=9.569(4) Å, α=85.36(4)°, β=86.08(3)°, γ=85.18(4)°, V=463.6(4) Å,³ Z=2, D_c =1.66 g cm^?3, μ=3.7 cm^?1, T=17°C, R=0.054 and R _w=0.076 for 1241 reflections; 1-Meim-NO₃, 2, monoclinic, P2₁/c, a=9.009(7) Å, b=9.988(6) Å, c=7.308(5) Å, β=94.93(6)°, V=655.2(8) Å,³ Z=4, D_c =1.47 g cm^?3, μ=1.2 cm^?1, T=17°C, R=0.060 and R _w=0.068 for 483 reflections.     

Phenylmercury dithiolates. The crystal and molecular structures of (C6H5Hg(S2COR) (R = Me; iPr and (C6H5)Hg(S2CNEt2))

The HgS distances fall within the relatively narrow range of 2.374(4)–2.388(2) Å in these compounds. The presence of additional Hg ⋯ S contacts also characterize these structures; the number and strength of these interactions depending on the nature of the dithiolate ligand.

NEW THREE DIMENSIONAL [Cd(CN)2]n FRAMEWORK FORMED WITH CADMIUM CYANIDE AND Cd(CN)2·(18-CROWN-6): CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF [Cd(CN)2]·1/2[Cd(CN)2 (18-CROWN-6)]·3/2EtOH+

Abstract

The cadmium complex Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6) (1) was synthesized and its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. The cadmium ion in 1 has a hexagonal bipyramidal geometry containing six equatorial oxygen atoms from the crown ether and two axial CN ligands. The NC-Cd-CN ‘rod’ is perfectly linear with an end-to-end distance of 6.509 (12) Å. When 1 was allowed to diffuse into a cadmium cyanide solution, the infinite coordination complex [Cd(CN)₂]·1/2[(Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6)]·3/2EtOH (2) was obtained in which the cadmium macrocycle 1 was trapped in a 10-faced-cage formed by the [Cd(CN)₂]n framework. The terminal nitrogen atoms of 1 bind two Cd centers across the cage. The trapped Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6) has a significantly bent NC-Cd-CN unit and the crown ether ligand disordered over two orientations. The [Cd(CN)₂]_n framework viewed down the c axis shows two types of channels, one octagonal and one tetragonal, which are filled with Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6) and ethanol molecules, respectively. Crystallographic data of 1: trigonal, space group R·3 (hexagonal axis), a = 11.757 (1), c = 12.105 (1) Å, V = 1449.1 (2) ų, Z = 3, R = 0.0566, R_w = 0.0674 for 827 unique reflections (I>3σ(I)).

Chemical Transformations of (2,3,9,10-Tetramethyl-1,4,5,7,8,11,12,14-Octa-Azacyclotetradeca-1,3,8,10-Tetraenato)Cobalt(II)Perchlorate

The monomeric octa-aza bis-α-diimine macrocyclic complex [Co^II(C₁₀H₂₀N₈)(H²O)](ClO₄)₂ I, undergoes various reactions on the macrocyclic ligand. Reaction of complex I with triethylamine in double molar proportions, followed by slow aerial oxidation, produces a molecular dimeric complex [Co^II(C₁₀H₁₄N₈)]₂, III, and a novel Co(I) complex [Co^I(C₁₀H₁₉N₈)], IV. Complex III is a staggered cofacial dimer with a cobalt-cobalt bond length 2.86(1) Å. The macrocyclic ligand of the complex contains an a-diimine function in each five-membered chelate ring, and a three-atom N-C-N^? delocalized system in each six-membered chelate ring. Complex IV has the 5-5-6-6 chelate arrangement because one α-diimine moiety is rearranged to a syn-anti configuration. In the structure, the two fused six-membered chelate rings are fully conjugated and the two fused five-membered rings are saturated. However, when complex I reacts with excess triethylamine under the similar conditions, a dimeric complex of another type, [Co^II(C₁₀H_l6N₈)]₂, II, was generated, in which one N-N bond of the macrocyclic ligand is broken. Complex IV can be isolated also from the reaction of complex I with excess hydrazine, followed by slow aerial oxidation. When hydrazine in double molar proportions was used, complex [Co^I(C₁₀H₁₇N₈)(NHNH)] V, which contains a coordinated diazene ligand, was obtained. Only one six-membered chelate ring of complex V is deprotonated and oxidized to form a three-atom N-C-N^? delocalized system. The structures of octa-aza complexes I-V are determined by X-ray crystallography: I, orthorhombic, C mca, a = 11.646(4), b = 17.049(3), c = 10.706(3) Å, Z = 4, R = 0.045, R_w = 0.047, based on 1024 reflections with I > 2σ(I); II, monoclinic, P 2₁/c, a = 9.814(3), b = 22.583(6). c = 14.632(9) Å, β = 98.90(5)°, Z = 4, R = 0.085, R_w = 0.101, based on 2033 reflections with I > 2σ(I); III, tetragonal, P 4/nmm, a = 15.614(3), c = 6.498(2) Å, Z = 4, R = 0.081, R_w = 0.115, based on 340 reflections with I > 2σ(I); IV, orthorhombic, P bca, a = 8.484(1), b = 16.662(3), c = 18.760(2) Å, Z = 8, R = 0.029, R_w = 0.024, based on 1441 reflections with I > 2σ(I); V, monoclinic, P 2₁/m, a = 7.892(3), b = 11.713(6), c = 9.326(4) Å, β = 108.03(3), Z = 2, R = 0.047, R_w = 0.056, based on 948 reflections with I > 2σ(I).

Crystals of 1 and 2 are triclinic, space group P1 (1: a = 11.895(3), b = 13.107(1), c = 20.473(2)Å, α = 74.95(6), β = 84.87(8), γ = 64.27(7)°, Z=2, V=2776.1 ų, R_w = 0.064 for 6443 observed reflections. 2: a = 11.876 (1), b = 13.065 (2), c = 20.325(2)Å, α = 74.95(1), β= 85.39(1), γ = 64.09(1)°, Z = 2, V = 2737.3ų, R_w = 0.055 for ·5303 observed reflections). The results of the structure determination showed that the central units of the two cubane-like cluster compounds are composed of four metal atoms and four non-metal atoms situated at alternate corners. The differences of cubane-like cluster compounds obtained from solid state reactions and from solution reactions are discussed.

Ambidentate coordination of the tripyridyl ligands 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridyl,tris(2-pyridyl)-amine,tris(2-pyridyl)methane and tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine to carbonylrhenium centres: Structural and spectroscopic studies

The reactions of [Re(CO)₅Cl] with the ligands tpy (2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine), py₃N {tris(2-pyridyl)-amine}, py₃CH {tris(2-pyridyl)methane}, and py₃P {tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine} in toluene solution realize compounds with the general formulation [Re(ligand)(CO)₃Cl] in which the tripyridyl ligands are bidentate. X-ray structural determinations of fac-[Re(typ)(CO)₃Cl].H₂O and fac-[Re(py₃N)(CO)₃Cl] confirm these assignments. [Re(tpy)(CO)₃Cl].H₂O (C₁₈H₁₃ClN₃O₄Re) is monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, with cell dimensions a = 7.432(2) Å, b = 17.016(4) Å, c = 14.466(2) Å, β = 93.51(2)°, and Z = 4; full-matrix least-squares refinement on 2435 reflections with I ? 2.5σ(I) converged to a final R = 0.028 and R_w = 0.029. [Re(py₃N)(CO)₃Cl] (C₁₈H₁₂ClN₄O₃Re) is triclinic, space group P1 with cell dimensions a = 13.761(2) Å, b = 14.636(6)Å, c = 11.110(2) Å, α = 110.70(2)°, β = 102.45(2)°, γ = 107.48(2)°, and Z = 4; full-matrix least-squares refinement on 3459 reflections with I ? 2.5σ(I) converged to a final R = 0.038 and R_w = 0.039. If the synthetic procedure is undertaken under irradiation by visible light, for the ligand py₃N a species [Re(py₃N)(CO)₂Cl] (characterized by infrared spectroscopy and conductance measurements) is also formed, in which the ligand py₃N is tridentate. No analogous tridentate species is formed with the ligands tpy or py₃P, although there is evidence that it also forms for py₃CH.
