A cadmium–thio­cyanate complex, poly[(1-cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azonia­bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-κ4N)octa­kis-μ2-thio­cyanato-κ8N:S8S:N-tricadmium(II)], [Cd3(C8H14N3)2(NCS)8]n, was synthesized by the reaction of 1-cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azonia­bicyclo­[2.2.2]octane chloride, cadmium nitrate tetra­hydrate and potassium thio­cyanide in aqueous solution. In the crystal structure, there are two independent types of CdII cation (one on a centre of inversion and one in a general position) and both are in distorted octa­hedral coordination environments, coordinated by N and S atoms from different ligands. Neighbouring CdII cations are linked together by thio­cyanate bridges to form a two-dimensional network. Hydrogen-bonding inter­actions are involved in the formation of a three-dimensional supra­molecular network.

Introduction top

\ Metal–organic coordination polymers have attracted considerable attention, not only owing to their intriguing architectures, but also due to their unique chemical and physical properties and potential applications (Lin et al., 1999; Moulton & Zaworotko, 2001; Gao et al., 2008). There are some reports in which N- and S-donor bridging ligands are used to form infinite polymeric frameworks (Kuniyasu et al., 1987; Liu et al., 2002; Zhang et al., 1999). Cadmium(II) is a rather soft metal ion. Therefore, it is expected that both the N and the S atoms of a thio­cyanate ion (SCN-) are able to bond easily with cadmium(II). The anionic thio­cyanate ligand is a highly versatile ambidentate ligand with a polarizable π-system and can coordinate to metal ions through either/both the N or/and the S atom (Eichele & Wasylishen, 1994). Different bridging modes of the thio­cyanate ligand and cadmium(II) cation can generate various types of dimensional structures with particular properties such as nonlinear optical (NLO) behaviour (Liu et al., 2002).

Many of the reported framework structures of polymeric cadmium complexes are one-dimensional zigzag chains. In contrast, two-dimensional CdII networks are quite rare. Recently, however, a particularly inter­esting two-dimensional honeycomb-like {[Cd(NCS)]-}n anionic polymeric framework was observed, in which the Cd—NCS—Cd units link to form eight-membered rings (Lai et al., 2007). Furthermore, the structure of an {[N(CH3)4]2[Cd(NCS)2S]}n complex, composed of eight-membered (Cd—NCS—Cd links) and four-membered (Cd—S—Cd links) rings combining to form a novel two-dimensional polymeric network structure, was reported (Li et al., 2003). Recently, we have investigated the synthesis of metal DABCO-based (DABCO is 1,4-di­aza­bicyclo­[2.2.2]o­ctane) coordination polymers, because DABCO, its derivatives and its metal complexes have exhibited excellent dielectric properties (Liao et al., 2013; Ye et al., 2012). In the present paper, we report a two-dimensional CdII coordination polymer using the 1-cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azoniabi­cyclo­[2.2.2]o­ctane cation (L) as a template, namely poly[(1-cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azoniabi­cyclo­[2.2.2]o­ctane-κ4N)o­cta­kis-\ µ2-thio­cyanato-κ8N:S;κ8S:N-\ tricadmium(II)], [Cd3(L)2(NCS)8], (I).

Experimental top

Synthesis and crystallization top

1-Cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azoniabi­cyclo­[2.2.2]o­ctane chloride was prepared according to the literature procedure of Li et al. (2015). An aqueous solution (10 ml) of 1-cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azoniabi­cyclo­[2.2.2]o­ctane chloride (0.282 g, 1.5 mmol) was added slowly to an aqueous solution containing cadmium nitrate tetra­hydrate (0.462 g, 1.5 mmol) and potassium thio­cyanide (0.582 g, 6 mmol), affording a colourless solution. Upon standing at room temperature for several days, suitable colourless single crystals of (I) were obtained by slow solvent evaporation.

Refinement top

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. H atoms were placed in idealized positions (C—H = 0.97 Å) and refined as a riding model, with isotropic displacement parameters set at 1.2Ueq of the appropriate carrier atoms.

Results and discussion top

\ Compound (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c. The asymmetric unit is composed of one-and-a-half CdII cations (one in a special position), one cationic 1-cyano­methyl-4-aza-1-azoniabi­cyclo­[2.2.2]o­ctane (L) organic ligand and four anionic thio­cyanate (SCN-) ligands (Fig. 1).

As shown in Fig. 1, there are two crystallographically unique CdII cations in (I), i.e. the Cd1 ion lies on an inversion centre, while the Cd2 ion is in a general position. Both of the CdII centres are six-coordinated with distorted o­cta­hedral geometries, but with different coordination environments. The Cd1 ion is symmetrically coordinated by two N atoms from two terminal L ligands, an dby two N atoms and two S atoms from four different thio­cyanate bridging ligands, while the Cd2 ion is surrounded by three N atoms and three S atoms from six thio­cyanate bridging ligands. Each of the CdII cations is joined to neighbouring CdII cations through double thio­cyanate bridges. The Cd—N bond lengths range from 2.244 (3) to 2.349 (3) Å and the Cd—S bond lengths vary from 2.7148 (11) to 2.7634 (13) Å (Table 2), and these are within the typical ranges for such bonds (Gao et al., 2008; Wei et al., 2007). There are two sorts of angle around each CdII centre, namely orthogonal cis [84.34 (9)–98.21 (9)°] and linear trans angles [172.98 (9)–180.00 (16)°]. In general, all the bond lengths and angles are in the normal ranges, and the Cd—S—C and Cd—N—C bond angles are consistent with those in other reported cadmium–thio­cyanate compounds (Wang et al., 2004; Liu et al., 2002).

The two-dimensional network of (I) is a new coordination polymer in which each of the six-coordinated CdII centres adopts a distorted o­cta­hedral coordination geometry. It displays a novel coordination architecture compared with the related structure (BMIM)2[Cd2(SCN)6], (II) (BMIM is 1-butyl-3-methyl­imidazolium; Gao et al., 2008), in which each CdII centre is located at the node position and o­cta­hedrally coordinated by N atoms from three bridging SCN- ligands and S atoms from three bridging NCS- ligands, forming a distorted two-dimensional honeycomb-like structure. In (I), two independent CdII centres are linked by bridging thio­cyanate ligands, forming an infinite two-dimensional puckered re­cta­ngular network with coordinated L ligands (Fig. 2). The corrugated two-dimensional net has a puckered re­cta­ngular structure where each loop within the grid is composed of Cd8(NCS)8 rings, with eight additional thio­cyanate ligands involved in double bridges between pairs of CdII cations, thus involving 16 thio­cyanate ligands and two coordinated L ligands in total per grid in the bc plane (Fig. 2). It is worth noting that, in one direction, the CdII cations alternate so that there is a Cd2···Cd1···Cd2 sequence, connected by thio­cyanate bridges, with a Cd···Cd distance of 5.7571 (10) Å, while in the other direction, the sequence is Cd2···Cd2···Cd2, also connected by thio­cyanate bridges, forming an inorganic zigzag anionic chain, with a Cd···Cd distance of 5.6982 (10) Å. This is different from what we found in our previous report on poly[4-(di­methyl­amino)­pyridin-1-ium [di-µ-thio­cyanato-κ2N:S;κ2S:N-thio­cyanato-\ κN-cadmium(II)]], (C7H11N2)[Cd(NCS)3] (Wang & Wang, 2015), where the CdII cations are linked by two N:S-bridging and two S:N-bridging thio­cyanate ligands, forming an infinite two-dimensional sandwich-like network.

The crystal structure of (I) exhibits two distinct metal-ion coordination modes: one is N4S2-coordinated doubly bridging and the other is N3S3-coordinated doubly bridging. Thus, the title polymer can be considered as the first example of a cadmium–thio­cyanate complex having various coordination modes. Additionally, the cations occur in centrosymmetrically related pairs within the cavities in this network and present two different orientations, as shown in Fig. 2.

The van der Waals radii of H and S atoms are 1.20 and 1.80 Å (Bondi, 1964), respectively. Any H···S contact shorter than 3.00 Å may therefore potentially be considered significant (Zhou et al., 2006). In complex (I), the H···S distances are 2.86 and 2.82 Å, which indicates the formation of C—H···S hydrogen bonds. The C—H···S hydrogen bond is very important in supra­molecular self-assembly. It should be pointed out that the two-dimensional anionic framework is filled by L cations through electrostatic and hydrogen-bonding inter­actions (C5—H5A···S2 and C7—H7A···N5; Table 3). Inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions between the L cations and the bridging thio­cyanate ligands further stabilize the corrugated two-dimensional network (Fig. 3). The undulating networks are stacked by C7—H7B···S3 inter­actions along the a axis, with a spacing between the layers of 3.632 (4) Å (the a-axis length). C7—H7B···S3 hydrogen-bonding inter­actions again serve as important driving forces to crosslink the puckered two-dimensional networks into a three-dimensional architecture in the ab plane (Fig. 4).

In summary, a new cadmium–thio­cyanate coordination polymer with an inter­esting structural architecture has been prepared in aqueous solution. The CdII cations are linked by bridging thio­cyanate ligands to form a two-dimensional coordination polymer which lies parallel to the bc plane. Hydrogen-bonding inter­actions are involved in forming the three-dimensional architecture.

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.
