To a stirred solution of Cu(NO3)2·4H2O (0.260 g, 1.0 mmol) in methanol (10 ml), 4,4'-bipy (0.156 g, 1.0 mmol) and sodium p-aminobenzoate (0.157 g, 1.0 mmol) in methanol (15 ml) were added. The mixture was refluxed for 2 h and the precipitate was filtered out and dried in vacuo (yield: 81%). Analysis calculated for C22H24N5O8Cu: C 47.57, H 4.32, N 12.61; found: C 47.52, H 4.22, N 12.69%. Spectroscopic analysis: IR (KBr diffuse reflectance, ν, cm−1): 3386, 1686, 1610, 1540, 1018.
The H-atom coordinates of three water molecules were located using the HYDROGEN program (Nardelli, 1999). The positions of all the other H atoms were fixed geometrically with distances as follows: C—H 0.96, N—H 0.86 and O—H 0.85 Å. One O atom of the p-aminobenzoate [O2 and O2'] and one N atom of the 4,4'-bipy [N3 and N3'] were found to be disordered over two sites, with occupancies of 0.60 (9) and 0.40 (9).

Experimental. The structure was solved by direct methods (Bruker, 2000) and successive difference Fourier syntheses. |
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. |

The application of metal atoms as key elements in the self-assembly of arrays has emerged as an area of great interest over the past a few years (Fujita, 1998; Leininger et al., 2000). A series of one-, two- and three-dimensional frameworks with novel topologies and potential properties have been obtained by binding metal ions of specific coordination geometry with rigid or flexible bridging ligands, such as 4,4'-bipyridine (Tong et al., 2000; Lu et al., 1998; Yaghi et al., 1997), 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (Plater et al., 1999), pyrazine (Carlucci et al., 1995), carboxyl-4-pyridine (MacGillivray et al., 1998), terephthalate (Lo et al., 2000), 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (Carlucci et al., 1999a; Jung et al., 1998), 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)butadiyne (Blake et al., 1997), 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (Carlucci et al., 2000), 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethyne (Carlucci et al., 1999b), 3,6-bis(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (Withersby et al., 1999), N,N'-p-phenylenedimethylene-bis(pyridin-4-one) (Goodgame et al., 1995) and 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (Fujita et al., 1998). Although many of these complex structures were obtained by chance to a certain extent, many polymers with specifically designed topologies have also been documented (Lehn & Rigault, 1998; Fujita et al., 1995; Noro et al., 2000). Recently, a systematic attempt has been made to determine the relationship between the molar ratio and the type of metal ions and ligands. The main focus of interest is on their remarkable structures and the self-assembly processes which have led to them (Beissel et al., 1996).
Recently, we have undertaken a series of investigations into metal-directed self-assembly, with the principal aim of obtaining supramolecular compounds or ordered coordination polymers. From this, a rigid organic ligand, p-aminobenzoate, has been chosen as a building block to react with transition metal ions and a series of coordination polymers with different topological structures have been generated. Here, we report the title polymeric ladder complex, (I), where the amino group of the p-aminobenzoate is uncoordinated. \sch
The present X-ray crystal structure analysis indicate that complex (I) is made up of a molecular ladder formed by the metal complex, nitrate anions and lattice water molecules. As illustrated in Fig.1, the coordination geometry around each CuII atom is Jahn-Teller distorted octahedral, where atoms O1W and O1, from an aqua ligand and the carboxyl group of the p-aminobenzoate, respectively, occupy the axial positions, and atom O2, from the carboxyl group of the p-aminobenzoate, atom N1, from one 4,4'-bipyridyl (4,4'-bipy) moiety, and atoms N2 and N3A from two different 4,4'-bipy ligands comprise the equatorial plane. Selected bond distances and angles are given in Table 1.
It is noted that the p-aminobenzoate acts as a bidentate chelating ligand in (I) (coordinated via the anionic carboxylate group), forming the lateral arm of the molecular ladders, with the amino group uncoordinated. Two 4,4'-bipy ligands and one p-aminobenzoate group form a T-shaped unit, producing a molecular ladder which extends along the whole crystal through the µ2-4,4'-bipy bridge (Fig. 2). The dihedral angle between the two pyridyl rings of the 4,4'-bipy ligand along the rail of the ladder is 27.5 (1)°, and that between the pyridyl ring of the 4,4'-bipy on the rung and the phenyl ring of the p-aminobenzoate is 16.9 (1)°. It is notable that the lateral arms of each molecular ladder are threaded into the [Cu4(4,4'-bipy)4] squares of adjacent molecular ladders, and each [Cu4(4,4'-bipy)4] square includes two aromatic rings belonging to two p-aminobenzoate groups of adjacent molecular ladders, which penetrate along the opposite direction and are parallel to each other. In addition, there are hydrogen-bonding interactions between the amino H atom of the p-aminobenzoate and the O atom of one nitrate anion (Table 2).
This structural pattern is similar to that recently reported by Chen and co-workers (Tong et al., 2000), where they used p-hydroxybenzoic anions as building blocks that acted as the corresponding arms. In their case, the coordination geometry of the CuII atoms is also described as distorted octahedral, where two O atoms from an asymmetrically chelating carboxyl group of a p-hydroxybenzoic anion have analogous M—O lengths [Cu—O 1.992 (2) and 2.466 (3) Å] to those in (I). Moreover, the hydroxyl group of the p-hydroxybenzoic anion is also uncoordinated but is involved in different hydrogen-bonding interactions, namely with one O atom of a nitrate anion, compared with the amino group in (I).
