In the title complex, [Co(C5H4N2O3)6](ClO4)2, six 4-nitro­pyridine N-oxide (npo) ligands coordinate to the CoII atom via their N-oxide O atoms, resulting in an octa­hedral CoO6 grouping. The CoII ion occupies an inversion centre. A short contact of 2.841 (12) Å is observed between a pyridine N atom and a perchlorate O atom.

Comment top

Pyridine N-oxide and its derivatives can act as bridging ligands in polynuclear metal complexes (Watson, 1969) or as monodentate ligands in mononulear complexes (Shi et al., 2005). We report here the synthesis and structure of the title CoII complex, (I), incorporating the 4-nitropridine N-oxide (npo) ligand.

The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. The CoII ion assumes a slightly distorted (Table 1) CoO6 octahedral coordination geometry from the N-oxide O atoms of six monodentate npo ligands. Atom Co1 occupies an inversion centre.

In the crystal structure of (I), a short N4···O11i [symmetry code: (i) = 3/2 − x, 1/2 + y, 1/2 − z] contact of 2.841 (12) Å is observed between an N-oxide N atom and a perchlorate O atom (sum of van der Waals radii = 3.07 Å). A Coulombic attraction between the formal positive charge of N4 and the partial negative charge of O11 may be responsible for this.

Experimental top

An aqueous solution (10 ml) of 4-nitropyridine N-oxide (0.3375 g, 2.41 mmol) was added to an aqueous solution (15 ml) of Co(ClO4)2·6H2O (0.2932 g, 0.801 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for a few minutes. Red single crystals of (I) were obtained after the solution was allowed to stand at room temperature for two weeks.

Refinement top

Three of the perchlorate O atoms are disordered over two sites in a 0.601 (13):0.393 (13) ratio (sum constrained to unity). The disordered O atoms were refined isotropiclly. All H atoms were included in calculated positions and were included in the final cycles of refinement using a riding model [C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)].

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.
