Comment top

A series of metal CuII, FeIII, CoIII and NiII complexes of ligands containing pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide moieties have been synthesized in recent years (Chavez et al., 1996, 1998; Marlin et al., 1999; Hiratani, et al., 1990). It has been well documented that amidate ligands have the ability to stabilize the high formal oxidation states of metal ions due to the good σ-donor properties of the deprotonated N atom (Patra & Mukherjee, 1999).

In order ot develop further the coordination chemistry of pyridine–amide ligands toward metal ions, we synthesized the title ligand, (I), with a naphthyl instead of a phenyl group connected to the amide N atom. It is estimated that the conjugation effect of the naphthyl ring is in favor of the coordination of the deprotonated nitrogen but the steric effect of the bulk aromatic ring will hinder the coordination. In the process of forming a complex, the naphthyl ring will probably rotate to another position where it is far away from the inside of the molecule, so that the amide N atom can easily coordinate with a metal ion.

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized according to the procedure of Ray et al. (1997). The crystal used for data collection was obtained by slow evaporation from a saturated DMF–water (10:1) solution at room temperature.

Refinement top

The C-bound H atoms were placed in geometrically calculated positions and included in the final refinement in the riding-model approximation.

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.
