To an aqueous solution (15 ml) of [Cu(nelin)(ClO4)2] (0.48 g, 1 mmol), an aqueous solution (15 ml) containing Na2[Fe(CN)5(NO)]·2H2O (0.29 g, 1 mmol) was added dropwise. After stirring for 30 min at room temperature, the resulting precipitate was collected by suction filtration. Dark-purple single crystals of (I) were obtained by recrystallizing from water in the dark.
All H atoms were visible in difference maps. The water H atoms were refined with DFIX restraints (SHELXL97; Sheldrick 1997), with O—H = 0.82 (3) Å and H···H = 1.37 (3) Å. All other H atoms were allowed for as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.96 and 0.97 Å, and N—H = 0.90 and 0.91 Å. The nitro group (N5/O1/O2) showed some signs of disorder (one O atom markedly anisotropic), and this was allowed for by refining atom O2 over two closely adjacent sites with 0.5 occupancy and with N5—O2 and N5—O2' restrained to be 1.22 (1) Å.

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. |

It is well known that the cyanide ion may coordinate through the C atom, acting as a monodentate ligand, or through both the C and N atoms, acting as a bridging ligand (Cramer et al., 1965). The preparation and study of polynuclear cyanide-bridged metal complexes, especially ferro- and ferricyanide complexes, have been of great interest in recent years due to the unusual electronic state, magnetic behaviour and photochemical properties of these compounds (Alcock et al., 1993; Entley & Giroloni, 1994; Clemente-Leon et al., 2001). Several studies have been made of the [Fe(CN)5(NO)]2- anion (Olabe et al., 1984; Zhan et al., 1999). Attempts have been made to clarify the structural correlation with the photochemical or magnetic properties of polynuclear complexes with the nitroprusside. We report here the preparation and structure of a new cyano-bridged Cu—Fe complex, namely [Cu(nelin)Fe(CN)5(NO)]·2H2O, (I). \sch
The dinuclear unit of (I) comprises one [Fe(CN)5(NO)]2- anion linked to one [Cu(nelin)]2+ cation through a CN- ligand. As shown in Fig. 1, the coordination environment of the Cu atom can be described as distorted square-based pyramidal. The basal plane is constructed by the coordination of the four N atoms of the tetradentate nelin ligand, and the N atom of the cyanide group occupies the axial position. The Cu—N distances reveal a small tetragonal distortion of the Cu—N4 plane, with the Cu—N bonds to the secondary amines being slightly longer than the Cu—N bonds to the primary amines, and this may be a consequence of steric differences for the N atoms. Within the Cu—N4 plane, the N2—Cu—N3 angle of 92.11 (7)° is about 3.6° smaller than the N1—Cu—N4 angle because of the steric difference. This is different from the similar structure (name or formula?) studied by Bernhardt et al. (1990), in which the trans angles are almost the same. The axial Cu—N6 bond is elongated, as in the case of [Cu2(oxpn)Fe(CN)5(NO)]n [oxpn is N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)oxamide; Chen et al., 1995] and [Cu(dmen)2Fe(CN)5(NO)] (dmen is 2-dimethylaminoethylamine; Mondal et al., 2000).
The FeII atom is in a deformed octahedral arrangement. The equatorial plane is defined by four C atoms of the cyanides, and the two axial sites are occupied by a cyanide C atom and the N atom of the nitrosyl group. The Fe—C, Fe—N, C—N and N—O bond lengths in the [Fe(CN)5(NO)] moiety are comparable with those reported for other multinuclear complexes of [Fe(CN)5(NO)]2- (Shyu et al., 1997; Zhan et al., 1999). The Fe—N distance [1.651 (2) Å] is much shorter than the other five Fe—C distances, which lie between 1.939 (3) and 1.948 (2) Å. Hence, the NO ligand is perfectly localized in the structure.
According to molecular orbital theory, M—NO+ will be nearly linear, which is proved in (I) by the Fe—N—O bond angle of 179.1 (2)°. The Fe—C—N bond angles [in the range 176.7 (2) to 179.2 (2)°] are also nearly linear. The Cu—N6—C9 bond angle is 157.1 (2)°, indicating a nonlinear linkage between the N atom of the cyanide ligand and the CuII atom.
Hydrogen-bonding interactions play an important role in the solid-state structure of (I), as shown in Fig. 2. In the unit cell, the complex is linked by hydrogen bonds to form sheets which lie in the domain 0 < z < 1/2, and these sheets are then linked by the two water molecules via O—H···N hydrogen bonds to give a three-dimensional network.
