4,4'-Dipyridylacetylene was prepared according to the literature method of Tanner & Ludi (1980). Squaric acid and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene were commercially available and were purified by standard methods. Slow evaporation of a solution of squaric acid (0.05 mmol) and the dipyridyl-type ligand (0.05 mmol) in methanol-water (1:1, 20 ml) gave crystals of (I) or (II) suitable for X-ray analysis.
All H atoms in both (I) and (II) were located in the Fourier map and refined isotropically.
Data collection: MSC/AFC Diffractometer Control Software (Molecular Structure Corporation, 1988) for (I); CAD-4 EXPRESS (Enraf-Nonius, 1992) for (II). Cell refinement: MSC/AFC Diffractometer Control Software for (I); CAD-4 EXPRESS for (II). For both compounds, data reduction: TEXSAN (Molecular Structure Corporation, 1995); program(s) used to solve structure: SHELXS97 (Sheldrick, 1997); program(s) used to refine structure: SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 1997); molecular graphics: ORTEPII (Johnson, 1976); software used to prepare material for publication: SHELXL97.

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. |

Squaric acid (3,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione) is a very strong dibasic acid and has been studied for potential application to xerographic photoreceptors, organic solar cells and optical recording (Seitz & Imming, 1992; Liebeskind et al., 1993). From the viewpoint of crystal engineering, squaric acid is also a useful tool for constructing crystalline architectures, because of its rigid and flat four-membered ring framework, and its proton donating and accepting capabilities for hydrogen bonding (Braga et al., 1999; Reetz et al., 1994). We have recently shown that the simple combination of chloranilic acid and dipyridyl-type ligands can create a variety of supramolecular architectures involving an infinite one-dimensional molecular tape structure (Zaman et al., 1999, 2000). In the course of our crystal-engineering studies on the combination of squaric acid and dipyridyl-type ligands, we have obtained co-crystals of the title compounds, of 4,4'-dipyridylacetylene-squaric acid (1:2), (I) and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene-squaric acid (1:2), (II), where a rare ten-membered hydrogen-bonded dimer of a squarate monoanion is formed. We report here the structures of the resulting hydrogen-bonded molecular tapes. \sch
Co-crystals (I) and (II) are isomorphous and crystallize in space group P1, with one molecule of squaric acid and half a molecule of the dipyridyl-type ligand in the asymmetric unit. The molecular structures of (I) and (II) are shown in Figs. 1 and 2, respectively, and selected geometric parameters are listed in Tables 1 and 2, respectively. The molar ratio of the dipyridinium dication and the monoanion of squaric acid is 1:2 in both (I) and (II). The bond lengths in the squarate monoanion display delocalization of the enolate anion. Thus, average bond lengths in the four-membered squarate frameworks are 1.421 (5) (C1—C4, C3—C4) and 1.494 (5) Å (C1—C2, C2—C3) for (I), and 1.429 (2) (C1—C2, C1—C4) and 1.495 (2) Å (C2—C3, C3—C4) for (II). The bond lengths of O1—C1 [1.255 (4) Å] and O3—C3 [1.240 (4) Å] in (I) and O2—C2 [1.245 (2) Å] and O4—C4 [1.244 (2) Å] in (II) are intermediate between a double and a single bond. Such bond length distribution has been found in cobalt and nickel squarate octahydrates (Brach et al., 1987) and L-argininium hydrogen squarate (Angelova et al., 1996). The dipyridinium dications of (I) and (II) lie in a plane, with maximum deviations of 0.003 (3) Å for (I) and 0.004 (1) Å for (II). The bond lengths in the dipyridinium moieties are similar to the literature values (Allen et al., 1987).
Figs. 3 and 4 show the packing diagrams of (I) and (II), respectively, viewed along the c axis. The squarate monoanions and the dipyridinium dications form an infinite one-dimensional molecular tape structure along the [120] direction and are connected via an intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bond [N1—H1···O1 2.636 (4) Å for (I) and N1—H1···O2 2.655 (2) Å for (II); see Tables 3 and 4]. The conformation of these molecular tapes is flat and almost linear. The squarate monoanions and the pyridine rings of the dipyridinium dications are almost coplanar [the dihedral angles between the two ring planes are 8.9 (2)° for (I) and 10.2 (1)° for (II)].
The most remarkable feature of the molecular tapes is the existence of a ten-membered hydrogen-bonded dimer of the squarate monoanions within the tapes. The two squarate monoanions are linked by two intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds [O4—H4···O3ii 2.511 (3) Å for (I) and O1—H1A···O4iv 2.503 (2) Å for (II); symmetry codes: (ii) 2 - x, -y, 1 - z; (iv) -x, 1 - y, -z] and are coplanar. The dimensions of the squarate dimer fit those of the dipyridyl-type ligands, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. The squarate monoanion dimer is rare, and we have found only eight examples in the Cambridge Structural Database (version?) (Angelova et al., 1996; Bernardinelli et al., 1989; Bock et al., 1998; Braga et al., 1999; Braga & Grepioni, 1998; Kanters et al., 1991; Karle et al., 1996; MacLean et al., 1999). In all other squarate structures, the squarate monoanions are linked by a single intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bond and no ten-membered rings are formed.
Each component molecule forms a segregated stack along the c axis. The interstack distances of the squarate plane and the dipyridinium plane for both (I) and (II) are 3.21 (1) and 3.40 (1) Å, respectively. The flat conformation of the molecular tapes is favourable for close packing of the tapes and of the segregated stack.
In conclusion, the supramolecular synthon (Desiraju, 1995) formed by a combination of squaric acid and dipyridyl-type ligands has been successfully used in the construction of linear hydrogen-bonded molecular tapes. The strong resemblance between the crystal structures of (I) and (II) suggests the robustness and reproducibility of this supramolecular synthon. Studies of the characterization of the physical properties of the co-crystals (I) and (II), and of the construction of new molecular architectures using squaric acid and other dipyridyl-type ligands, are now in progress.
