The design and synthesis of polymeric coordination compounds of 3d transition metals are of great inter­est in the search for functional materials. The coordination chemistry of the copper(II) ion is of inter­est currently due to potential applications in the areas of mol­ecular biology and magnetochemistry. A novel coordination polymer of CuII with bridging N,N′-bis­(2-hy­­droxy­phen­yl)-2,2-di­methyl­propane-1,3-di­amine (H2L-DM) and dicyanamide (dca) ligands, catena-poly[[[μ2-2,2-di­methyl-N,N′-bis­(2-oxido­benzyl­idene)­pro­pane-1,3-di­amine-1:2κ6O,N,N′,O′:O,O′]­dicopper(II)]-di-μ-dicyanamido-1:2′κ2N1:N5;2:1′κ2N1:N5], [Cu2(C19H20N2O2)(C2N3)2]n, has been synthesized and characterized by CHN elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. Structural studies show that the CuII centres in the dimeric asymmetric unit adopt distorted square-pyramidal geometries, as confirmed by the Addison parameter (τ) values. The chelating characteristics of the L-DM2− ligand results in the formation of a CuII dimer with a double phenolate bridge in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, the dimeric units are further linked to adjacent dimeric units through μ1,5-dca bridges to produce one-dimensional polymeric chains.

Introduction top

The design and synthesis of polymeric coordination compounds of 3d transition metals have witnessed a great inter­est in search of functional materials find wide applications such as model compounds for the investigation of the role of polymetallic active sites in biological systems and new magnetic molecular materials (Sadhukhan et al., 2011; Bhar et al., 2011; Talukder et al., 2011). The complexes derived from N,N'-bis­(2-hy­droxy­phenyl)­propane-1,3-di­amine (H2L) and its derivatives have been used widely in the construction of dinuclear or trinuclear complexes due to their facile preparation and varied chemical properties (Carbonaro et al., 1999; Heinicke et al., 2005; Drew et al., 1985). On the other hand, the coordination chemistry of the copper(II) ion is of considerable inter­est currently, particularly due to potential applications in the areas of molecular biology and magnetochemistry (Talukder et al., 2011; Li et al., 2014; Hopa et al., 2015). Bridging ligands such as N3-, NCS-, NCO- and N(CN)2- play a key role in the preparation of polynuclear coordination compounds. The larger pseudohalide ligand dicyanamide (dca) has three potential nitro­gen-donor sites and coordinates to metal ions in various modes (see Scheme 1); this is particularly inter­esting and allows the preparation of compounds with various kinds of architectures, viz. mononuclear and polynuclear, as well as one-, two- and three-dimensional networks (Batten & Murray, 2003). As part of our outgoing study of the design of homo- and heteropolynuclear transition metal complexes using O,N,N',O'- and N,N',N''-type ligands with various pseudohalide coligands, we report here the synthesis and crystal structure of a new polymeric complex incorporating the salicyaldimine-type molecule N,N'-bis­(2-hy­droxy­phenyl)-2,2-di­methyl­propane-1,3-di­amine (H2L-DM) and using dca as coligand. The dca ligand leads to the formation of the one-dimensional polymeric complex, [Cu2(L-DM)(dca)2]n, (1).

Recently, the structural characterization of the dinuclear Cu–Cu(dca)2 (Biswas & Ghosh, 2012), heterodinuclear Cu–Cd(dca)2 (Shi et al., 2009), hexanuclear Cu3–Cu3(dca)2 (Talukder et al., 2011), dinuclear Cu–Cu(dca)2 (Sadhukhan et al., 2011), trinuclear Cu–Ni–Cu(dca)2 (Biswas et al., 2013), polymeric Cu–Co–Cu(dca)2 (Mondal et al., 2014), Cu–Zn–Cu(dca)2 (Shi et al., 2009; Das et al., 2014), Cu4(dca)4 (Wang et al., 2014), Cu–Cu(dca)2 (Mondal et al., 2014), Cu4(dca)2 (Zhang et al., 2013), polymeric Cu–Cu(dca)2 (Mal et al., 2011) Schiff base complexes have been reported. To the best of our knowledge, the structural characterization of the one-dimensional polymeric zigzag chain complex Cu–Cu(dca)2 of H2L-DM with dca is described here for the first time.

Experimental top

All reagents and solvents were purchased from commercial sources and were used without further purification. The elementel analyses of C, H and N were performed with a LECO CHNS-932 analyzer. The IR spectra were recorded using IR grade KBr disks on a PerkinElmer 1600 series FT–IR spectrophotometer in the range 4000–250 cm-1. The thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) measurements were run on a PerkinElmer Diamond instrument. In this study, the TG curves were obtained with the flow rate of carrier gas at 100 ml min-1 and a heating rate of 20K min-1 in nitro­gen (3 bar; 1 bar = 10 5 Pa) with the sample contained in a ceramic pan in the range 303–1473 K.

Synthesis and crystallization top

Preparation of N,N'-bis­(2-hy­droxy­phenyl)-2,2-di­methyl­propane-1,3-di­amine (H\~2\~L-DM) top

H2L-DM was synthesized (see Scheme 2) by refluxing with stirring for 2 h a 2:1 molar ratio of salicyl­aldehyde and 2,2-di­methyl­propane-1,3-di­amine in EtOH using the known general condensation method of Atakol et al. (2003).

Preparation of [Cu\~2\~(L-DM)(dca)\~2\~]\~n\~, (1). top

To a hot methano­lic solution (20 ml) of H2L-DM (0.310 g, 1 mmol), a solution of Cu(NO3)2.3H2O (0.483, 2 mmol) in hot MeOH was added slowly in a glass beaker. To this boiling solution, an aqueous solution of sodium dicyanamide (0.178, 2 mmol) was added dropwise with constant stirring. The final solution was then filtered to eliminate impurities and the supernatant liquid was kept in air for slow evaporation. After a week, black block-like crystals of (1) suitable for X-ray measurements separated out (yield 75%) (see Scheme 3). Analysis calculated for C23H20Cu2N8O2): C 48.7, H 3.5, N 19.7%; found: C 49.0, H 3.6, N 19.9%.

Crystal data collection and refinement top

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. H atoms attached to C atoms were placed at calculated positions, with C—H = 0.95 Å , and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) values set at 1.5Ueq of their respective parent atoms.

Results and discussion top

The IR spectrum of [Cu2(L-DM)(dca)2]n, (1), has been analysed in comparison with that of free H2L-DM and dca in order to study the binding mode of the ligands to the CuII metal centres in the complex. The IR spectrum of free H2L-DM shows a strong and sharp band due to the azomethine ν(CN) group at 1628 cm-1. In the spectrum of the complex, this band has been shifted towards higher region around 1661 cm-1 indicating the participation of the azomethine group in the complex formation (Kiranmai et al., 2010). Free H2L-DM shows a medium intensity band at 1279 cm-1 due to the phenolate ν(C—O) group which is shifted to a higher region at around 1358 cm-1 in the spectrum of the complex, indicating that the deprotonated ligand (L-DM) is coordinated to the CuII centre. These bands prove that the shifts are due to coordination of H2L-DM to the CuII ion by through azomethine N and phenolate O atoms (Mapari et al., 2011; Canpolat & Kaya, 2005). The dca ion has been observed to coordinate to metal cations in a variety of modes (see Scheme 1), which can be terminal or bridging. If the dca group is terminally bonded, the bands at 2286, 2232 and 2173 cm-1 bands, which are attributed to the characteristic νsym+νasym(CN), νasym(CN) and νsym(C N) vibration bands, respectively, of free dca shift towards lower frequencies, whereas the spectra of the bridging ions are shifted to higher frequencies. The strong absorbtion peaks at 2303, 2242 and 2194 cm-1 for (1) might be characteristic vibrations of the CN bonds of bridging dca anions. Furthermore, in µ1,5-dca-bridged copper(II) complexes, the νsym(C—N) and νasym(C—N) vibration bands are usually observed in the ranges 1400–1300 and 950–900 cm-1 (Talukder et al., 2011; Batten & Murray, 2003). These bands appear at 1359 and 927 cm-1, respectively, in complex (1). [Can IR spectra or a full list of IR data be provided?]

The dimeric asymmetric unit of (1) (Fig. 1a) can be formulated as [Cu2(L-DM)(dca)2] and contains two CuII atoms, a Schiff base L-DM2- ligand connecting pairs of CuII centres through a double phenolate bridge and two independent dca anions. The molecular propagation constructing the one-dimensional polymeric architecture of (1) is shown in Fig. 1(b). The geometry of the each CuII centre is very close to square pyramidal, with τ = 0.016 and 0.040 [τ = (α-β)/60], where α and β are the two largest angles around the central atom (τ =0 and 1 for the perfect square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal geometries, respectively; Addison et al., 1984). The square-pyramidal equatorial plane of the Cu1 centre is formed by the imine N atoms (N1 and N2) and the two phenolate O atoms (O1 and O2) of the tetra­dentate Schiff base L-DM2- ligand (Table 2). Dca atom N8 coordinates in the axial position (Fig. 2). The equatorial plane of the Cu2 atom is created by two coordinated L-DM2- phenolate O atoms (O1 and O2) and two dca N atoms (N3 and N4). Dca atom N5 occupies the axial position. The CuII ions deviate from the square plane by 0.168 and 0.336 Å, respectively. The –NCNCN– bridge adopts a V-type conformation, in which the C—N—C angles of 123.4 (2) and 120.25 (19)° indicate that dca atoms N7 and N6 are sp2-hybridized. These results are close to the values found in similar salen-type compounds [salen is bis­(salicyl­idene)ethyl­enedi­amine] (Yardan et al., 2015; Bermejo et al., 2007; Kurtaran et al., 2003; Wang et al., 2000).

The formation of a one-dimensional zigzag polymeric chain may be viewed as follows (Fig. 3). The phenolate O atoms of the Cu(L-DM) unit coordinate to the CuII atom of a Cu(dca)2 unit to form a dinuclear unit, as shown in Fig. 1(a). Each unit is connected to adjacent units via one double and two single µ1,5-bridging dca anions, resulting in a one-dimensional zigzag-like chain with a Cu···Cu distance between adjacent units of 8.099(?) Å.

For investigation of thermal properties of (1), thermogravimetric (TG) analysis and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were carried out from ambient temperature up to 1473 K under a static nitro­gen atmosphere and the heating rates were suitably controlled at 10 K min-1. The TG/DTG/DTA curves (DTG is the rate of weight change) (Fig. 4) show that complex (1) is thermally stable up to σim 402 K and decomposes in four successive steps with the DTG maximum at 426, 589, 773 and 1353 K. The endothermic peaks DTA curve at 531, 691 and 797 K are attributed to decomposition of (1). An exo effect is observed around 1354 K and may correspond to decomposition of the ligands accompanied by formation of metalic oxide and carbon residue as an end product.

In summary, we have described the synthesis of a new dicyanamide-bridged one-dimensional polymeric complex of copper with an N2O2-donor Schiff base ligand. In the asymetric unit, penta­coordinated CuII ions are bridged by phenolate O atoms from the Schiff base ligand and are further inter­linked into a one-dimensional zigzag chain by one double and two single dca ions in µ1,5-modes. Furthermore, this coordination polymer is thermally stable below 403 K. We are currently investigating the chemistry of dca with other transition metal ions in combination with different neutral O,N,N',O'-type Schiff base ligands.

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.
