The structure of the title compound, [Cd2(C12H27O3SSi)4(C10H8N2)]·2C7H8, consists of discrete mol­ecules, with the two halves of the complex mol­ecule related to each other by inversion symmetry. Two (tri-tert-butoxy­silanothiol­ato)­cadmium units are bridged through the 4,4′-bipyridyl ligand. The geometry of the CdII atoms is inter­mediate between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal. The solvent toluene mol­ecules pack in the voids between the mid-point of the 4,4′-bipyridine and the tert-butyl groups of an adjacent complex. There is disorder in the 4,4′-bipyridine mol­ecule, with site occupancies of 0.506 (7):0.494 (7).

Comment top

The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of one half-molecule of the complex and one toluene molecule. An inversion centre is located at the mid-point of the bridging C—C bond of the 4,4'-bipyridine, at Wyckoff position c (0,1/2,0). The 4,4'-bipy rings in compound (I) exhibit deviation from planarity, which is most probably "artificial" effect resulting from the disorder of the bipyridine moiety. The environment of the Cd can be approximated either to trigonal–bipyramidal or square pyramidal, but distortions are found for both approximations. Molecules of (I) pack in the crystal structure as discrete entities with no interactions other than van der Waals. Also position of solvating toluene is such that no pi-pi stacking can be considered.

Experimental top

Compound (I) was synthesized from dimeric cadmium bis(tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolate) (Wojnowski et al. 1992). Cadmium bis(tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolate) (1.00 g; 0.75 mmol) was suspended in ethanol (40 ml). 4,4'-bipyridine (0.23 g, 1,5 mmol) and toluene (8 ml) were added to the suspension and the reaction mixture was heated for 1 h. The solution, kept at 269 K, yielded colourless needles suitable for X-ray analysis after approx. one month.

Refinement top

All C—H hydrogen atoms were refined as riding on carbon atoms with methyl C—H = 0.98 Å, aromatic C—H = 0.95 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic CH and 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl groups. Atoms C25–C26, and C28–C29 in the 4,4'-bipyridine molecule is disordered (0.506 (7)/0.494 (7)).

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. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F^2^ against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F^2^, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F^2^. The threshold expression of F^2^ > σ(F^2^) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F^2^ are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
