(Received 4 March 2013; accepted 5 March 2013; online 9 March 2013)

In the title compound [Fe(NCS)2(C8H6N4S)2(H2O)2]·H2O, the FeII cation is coordinated by two N-bonded thio­cyanate anions, two N4-bonded bis­(pyrazin-2-yl) sulfide ligands and two water mol­ecules in an slightly distorted octa­hedral geometry. The FeII cation is located on a center of inversion and the lattice water mol­ecule on a twofold rotation axis. The thio­cyanate anions, the coordinating water mol­ecules and the sulfide ligands occupy general positions. The complex mol­ecules and lattice water mol­ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by O—H—N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

Recently we have reported on the synthesis and characterization of transition metal thiocyanato compounds with 2-chloropyrazine as neutral co-ligand (Wöhlert & Näther, 2013). In the course of these investigations, we have reacted iron(II)sulfate with potassium thiocyanate and 2-chloropyrazine under hydrothermal conditions, which accidently lead to the formation of single crystals of the title compound that were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the crystal structure, each iron(II) cation is coordinated by two N-bonded thiocyanato anions, two 2,2'-dipyrazinesulfide ligands and two water molecules within a slightly distorted octahedra (Fig.1 and Tab. 1). The Fe—N and Fe—O distances range from 2.096 5(17) Å to 2.235 (2) Å with angles arround the iron(II) cation between 87.98 (8) ° to 92.02 (8) ° and of 180 ° (Tab. 1). The asymmetric unit consists of one iron(II) cation located on a center of inversion, one water molecule on a 2-fold axis as well as of one 2,2'-dipyrazinesulfide ligand, one thiocyanato anion and one water molecule all of them located in general position. The discrete complexes are connected by the non-coordinating water molecules into a three-dimensional network through intermolecular O—H—N and O—H—O hydrogen bonding (Fig. 2). In this arrangement each non-coordinating water molecule acts as acceptor in two O—H—O hydrogen bonds and as a donor in two O—H—N hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2 and Tab.2).

Experimental top

FeSO4x7H2O, KNCS and 2-chloropyrazine were obtained from Alfa Aesar. All chemicals were used without further purification. 0.15 mmol (41.7 mg) FeSO4x7H2O, 0.3 mmol (29.1 mg) KNCS and 0.3 mmol (26.4 µL) 2-chloropyrazine were reacted in 1 ml water in a closed test-tube at 120 °C for 3 days. Red single crystals of the title compound were obtained after two days on cooling.

Refinement top

All C—H H atoms were located in difference map but were positioned with idealized geometry and were refined isotropic with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) using a riding model with C—H = 0.95 Å for aromatic H atoms. The water H atoms were located in a difference map, their bond lenghts were set to ideal values of 0.84 Å and finally they were refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O).

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.
