The title compound, {[Cd(C6H4NO2)2(H2O)]·0.5C12H10N4}n, presents an intricate three-dimensional network with cavities traversing it in three orthogonal directions, where the (disordered) guest molecules lodge. The compound is a member of a series of coordination polymers presenting the same main host framework but with guests of variable size and geometry, to which the flexible skeleton seems to adapt. The disorder in the structure is explained in terms of an apparently well defined specificity in the position/orientation of the guest molecules, as determined by the main framework.

For the synthesis of the title compound, Cd(NO3)2·4H2O (0.15 4 g, 0.5 mmol), isonicotinic acid (0.123 g, 1.0 mmol), 3pa (0.053 g, 0.25 mmol) and 0.1
M NaOH solution (10.0 ml, 1.0 mmol) were placed in a Parr Teflon-lined
stainless steel vessel (23 ml). The vessel was sealed and heated to 383 K for
24 h, and then the reactor was cooled slowly to ambient temperature. The
resultant yellow block-shaped crystals of (I), suitable for X-ray structure
analysis, were filtered off and dried (yield: 80%, based on Cd).
H atoms attached to carbon were placed in geometrically idealized positions,
with C—H = 0.93 Å; those in the water molecule were found in a difference
map and refined with restrained distances of O—H 0.85 (3) and H···H 1.35 (4) Å. In all cases, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(carrier).
The 3pa molecule appeared disordered over two sites, shifted along the
crystallographic b axis direction (Fig. 1) and defining a kind of
chain. Due to difficulties in the handling of the guest molecules (both
moieties tended to deform on refinement), each of the two independent images
was treated as a rigid body to which the coordinates of the free moiety (as
taken from Dong et al., 2000) were fitted. Their occupancy factors,
when freely refined, converged very nearly to 0.25; they were then all fixed
at this value in the final stages of refinement. This treatment appears
justified by the acceptably low maximum residual electron density found around
the guest molecules after convergence (~0.68 e Å-3).

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.

Isonicotinate is a versatile ligand, taking part in many coordination polymers with interesting structural features. In particular, {[Cd(isonicotinate)2(H2O)].X}n (X = guest molecules) defines an isostructural family presenting a three-dimensional [Cd(isonicotinate)2(H2O)]n porous framework (Pbca symmetry), with two interpenetrating diamondoid substructures (P212121 symmetry) related to each other by an inversion centre. The empty space in the framework is occupied by X guest molecules. Already reported structures in the series correspond to X = dimethylformamide (Liao et al., 2004), (1); pyrazine, (2) (Evans et al., 1999) and biformyl, (3) (Liu et al., 2006). We present here a slightly different assembly with a metal–guest ratio of 1:0.5, the title complex, {[Cd(isonicotinate)2(H2O)].0.5(3pa)}n, (4) [3pa is 1,4-bis(3-pyridyl)-2,3-diaza-1,3-butadiene], where the porous host network contains the large bipyridyl guest molecule 3pa in a disordered fashion (see discussion below, and Experimental section for refinement details).
As in the rest of the series, the elemental link in (4) (Fig. 1) is composed of CdII ions bridged to four nearest neighbours by isonicotinate ligands, each of which uses both carboxylate O atoms to chelate to one side of the bridge and the pyridyl N atom to bind to the other. Thus, each CdII ion is seven-coordinated in the form of a pentagonal bipyramid, with four carboxylate O atoms from two isonicotinate ligands and one pyridyl N atom from a third isonicotinate ligand defining the equatorial plane, while the N atom from a fourth isonicotinate ligand and the aqua molecule determine the apical axis (Table 1). This results in the formation of two interpenetrated P212121 substructures defining the main Pbca framework, with large tunnels traversing it in three orthogonal directions (Fig. 2).
Stabilization of the framework is modestly enhanced by four non-conventional hydrogen bonds involving the four C—H groups of one single ligand (isonicotinate 1) as donors and the carboxylate O atoms of both ligands as acceptors, as well as by two strong hydrogen bonds formed by the aqua molecule: that involving atom H1WA is directed towards the main framework, while the second, involving atom H1WB, is a diffuse interaction with the disordered 3pa molecule (Table 2).
Though interpenetration reduces the volume of the overall empty space amenable to filling by guest species, it appears that the framework is flexible enough to adapt to the requirements of a diversity of guests. This can be inferred from the variations in cell dimensions displayed by the four known structures in the series, where a direct correlation with the guest size and geometry can be detected (Table 3).
Finally, it is interesting to compare the present structure, (4), with the pyrazine analogue, (2). For convenience, we will describe this latter structure with the aromatic guests disposed along those channels parallel to the b axis, with their planar face nearly perpendicular to a, and with two rings per cell in each of the four available channels. Fig. 3(a) depicts this situation, with the left-hand side showing the column contents and the rightmost part of the figure displaying a view down a, with the pyrazine rings highlighted. In (4), the much longer 3pa units dispose along b in such a way as to have the orientation of the aromatic rings also perpendicular to a [and thus parallel to the pyrazines in (2)]. Surprisingly, if only the rings in the 3pa molecule are considered, disregarding the connecting chains in between, the packing of these disordered guests (with individual site occupancy factors of 1/4) e nd s up in two conglomerates per column within each cell. These groups are made up of four rings each, nearly parallel to each other and almost overlapping [maximum deviation of the centre of gravity from the centroid = 0.60 (2) Å].
In addition, the group presents a (global) population of 4 × 0.25 = 1.00, the equivalent of a complete ring. The locations in which these groups fall, as measured by their centroids, are almost coincident with those in (2) [differences in fractional coordinates between the centres of gravity of pyrazine and the centroid of 3pa: Δ(x) 0.03695; Δ(y) 0.00609; Δ(z) 0.00348]. Fig. 3(b) illustrates this state of affairs, in parallel to that shown for (2). Thus, the left-hand side presents the (disordered) column content, drawn in full so as to visualize the way in which the guests dispose, while the right-hand side exhibits, in turn, the view down a, with only the aromatic rings highlighted in order to emphasize the similarities with the pyrazine case.
In summary, the highly disordered 3pa structure, (4), reproduces, on average but with a surprising spatial match, the ordered pyrazine structure, and the leading factor in this similarity seems to be the planar aromatic rings lodged in the cavities. The conclusion which can be inferred from this is that the guest positions are not weakly defined, but instead appear to be firmly determined by the host environment in combination with the particular guest shape, in this case the planar aromatic ring, irrespective of its being isolated [pyrazine in (2)] or being part of a more complex molecule [3pa in (4)].
