(Received 16 February 2010; accepted 9 March 2010; online 17 March 2010)

The title compound, [Cu(C11H11N4O2)2], was prepared by solvothermal synthesis using 2-amino-5-(4-methoxy­phen­yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole and copper sulfate penta­hydrate in an acetonitrile solution. The CuII atom lies on an inversion center and is four-coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry by four N atoms of the ligands obtained from the formation of a bond between the amine N atom of the oxadiazole mol­ecule and the nitrile C atom of the solvent. In the crystal structure an inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond links inversion-related mol­ecules.

Comment top

In recent years, there has been a considerable effort towards preparation of new materials containing polyfunctional organic ligands able to bind metallic ions by solvothermal synthesis. For example, with Schiff bases ligands, such complexes could be applied in different areas, including biochemistry, electrochemistry, and catalysis (Lu et al., 2002).

The 2,5-substituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives are of significant interest due to their chemotherapeutic effects (Kadi et al., 2007; Zareef et al., 2008; Zareef et al., 2007; Zareef et al., 2006; Cao et al., 2002). In this paper, we report the structure of one of these compounds with copper (II).

In the centrosymmetric title complex, the Cu (II) atom is located on an inversion center and is four-coordinated in a square planar geometry by four N atoms of the ligands obtained from the formation of a bond between N-amine of the oxadiazole molecule and C-nitrile of the solvent. All the coordinated bond lengths are typical and comparable with those in similar copper (II) complexes (Cai,2009). In the title compound, there is just one weak hydrogen bond N1-H1···N8 linking different inversion (-x, -y, -Z+1) related molecules.

Experimental top

5-(4-Methoxy-phenyl)-2amino-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole (0,2 mmole) and (0,1 mmole) copper sulfate pentahydrate were mixed in 5 ml of acetonitrile. The mixture was placed in a Teflon-lined stainless steel vessel, and heated to 160° C for 16 h. It was then cooled to room temperature over a period of 24 h, and washed using acetonitrile. Brown crystals suitable for X-Ray crystallography were obtained.

Refinement top

H atoms were placed at calculated positions (C-H = 0..88-0.98 Å) and were treated as riding on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) set to 1.2-1.5 times Ueq(C).
