The reaction was carried out under nitrogen atmosphere by using standard Schlenk line techniques. In a Schlenk flask, Rh2(O2CCH3)4 (52.4 mg) was suspended in THF (4.0 ml) and Hbdmap (17.0 mg) was added. The green suspension was stirred for 24 h. The resulting pink solution was filtered to remove traces of undissolved Rh2(O2CCH3)4. Pink crystals formed during slow evaporation of the solvent in vacuo.
All H atoms were positioned geometrically, fixing the C—H bond lengths at 0.98, 0.99 and 1.00 Å for CH3, CH2 and CH groups, respectively and constrained to ride on their parent atom with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) [or 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl]. The H atom attached to the O atom was constrained to ride on their parent atom with O—H = 0.84 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The solvent THF molecule is disordered at two sets of positions, which are related by a center of symmetry. The occupancy factor for each of O10, C20, C30 and C50 from the THF solvent molecule was set to 0.5 in the refinement.

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. |

A vast amount of interest has been devoted to the dirhodium(II) carboxylates since 1960 with respect to their structure, reactivity and electronic properties. X-ray diffraction studies have revealed dimeric `lantern' or `paddlewheel' structures, which also possess a metal–metal bond. The interest in dirhodium(II) carboxylates has been maintained in recent years especially by their potential practical applications as antitumor agents and as catalysts in organic synthesis. The ability of dirhodium(II) carboxylates to form [Rh2(O2CR)4Ln] (n = 1 or 2) complexes with the ligands (L) in axial positions is well established (Boyar & Robinson, 1983; Cotton et al., 1999). The largest class of such compounds are diadducts with discrete structure. Additionally, polymeric structures comprising axial ligands with two binding sites are also known (Cotton et al., 1999, and references therein; Kim et al., 2001). It is known that dirhodium(II) carboxylates interact with DNA, this possibly being the reason for their cytotoxic effect. Moreover, it is proposed that they can interact, through vacant axial positions, with adenine (at N7) but not with N9-substituted guanine and N1-substituted cytosine, this selectivity being due to intramolecular interligand interactions associated with the octahedral coordination environment about the Rh atom (Aoki & Yamazaki, 1984; Aoki & Salam, 2001, 2002). It is also reported that they can react, through equatorial positions, with guanine as well as adenine by displacing carboxylate ligands (Chifotides & Dunbar, 2005).
1,3-Bis(dimethylamino)-2-propanol (Hbdmap) has two amino groups and one hydroxyl group which can be deprotonated readily. Several complexes with deprotonated bdmap− or zwitterionic Hbdmap (see first scheme below) as a ligand for metal ions have been isolated and structurally characterized. By far the highest in number of complexes with this ligand are copper(II) complexes (Wang et al., 1992, 1993; Wang, 1996; El Fallah et al., 2004) but the complexes with Zr (Fleeting et al., 1999), B (Huskens et al., 1998), Ga (Sun et al., 1999), Si (Lo et al., 2004), Bi (Breeze et al., 1996), Y (Guillon et al., 2000), Zn (Demsar et al., 2002) and Li (Henderson et al., 1995) are also known. Additionally, several heterometallic complexes that contain two different metal ions in the structure are also known. The reason for extensive work in the field is also possible interesting magnetic properties of the products or isolation of precursors for preparation of superconductors (Wang, 1998; Wang et al., 1994, 1995). However, no structure was found where the Hbdmap molecule is bonded as a ligand to a dimetal carboxylate core.
The molecular structure of (I) (Figs. 1 and 2) consists of a zigzag chain of dirhodium(II,II)–tetraacetate bridged by the Hbdmap molecule as a ligand. The chains run along the b axis with van der Waals interactions between the chains. The disordered tetrahydrofuran (THF) molecules occupy the vacancies in the structure. It is interesting to note that in the reaction of dicopper(II) acetate with Hbdmap a tetranuclear complex, [Cu4(OAc)6(bdmap)2(H2O)6]n, was isolated (Wang et al., 1992). Obviously, after coordination of anionic bdmap− in this reaction, the dicopper–dicarboxylate core was converted to a polynuclear structure, where bdmap− acts as a tridentate ligand. In our reaction between dirhodium(II,II) acetate and Hbdmap, the isolated product is structurally completely different. The basic dirhodium dicarboxylate core remains intact, with an Rh···Rh distance of 2.4085 (5) Å, but Hbdmap is coordinated only in axial positions, through its terminal N atoms, to form a polymeric structure. A unique role of the Hbdmap hydroxy group was observed in this structure – it is not involved in coordination but it participates in intramolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonding involving the O atom from the Hbdmap ligand and an O atom from the dirhodium–dicarboxylate core (Table 2 and Fig. 1). The coordination of the Hbdmap molecule in the title compound represents, to the best of our knowledge, a new coordination mode of this ligand.
