The title compound, [Cd2Br4(C24H16N2)2], consists of a centrosymmetric dimeric unit in which two Br atoms bridge two CdII atoms, forming a four-membered ring. A terminal Br atom and a bidentate chelating 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand complete a square-pyramidal geometry for the CdII atom. In the crystal, C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds and ππ contacts between the pyridine and phenyl rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.704 (4) and 3.715 (4) Å] lead to a three-dimensional supra­molecular structure.

Comment top

4,7-Diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Ph2phen) is a good bidentate ligand, and numerous complexes with Ph2phen have been prepared, such as that of mercury (Alizadeh et al., 2010; Yousefi et al., 2008), gold (Ahmadi et al., 2008), indium (Abedi et al., 2012), copper (Chesnut et al., 2001) and platinum (Gaballa et al., 2003). Here, we report the synthesis and structure of the title compound.

The structure of the title compound (Fig. 1) consists of a centrosymmetric dimeric unit, [Cd2Br4(Ph2phen)2], in which two Br atoms bridge two CdII atoms, forming a four-membered ring; a terminal Br atom and a bidentate chelating Ph2phen complete a five coordination (Table 1). In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H···Br hydrogen bonds (Table 2) and ππ contacts (Fig. 2) between the pyridine and phenyl rings, Cg3···Cg4i and Cg6···Cg6i [symmetry code: (i) 1-x, 2-y, -z, Cg3, Cg4 and Cg6 are the centroids of the rings N1/C1–C3/C10/C24, N2/C13–C14/C21–C23 and C10–C13/C23–C24, respectively], with centroid–centroid distances of 3.704 (4) and 3.715 (4) Å, stabilize the structure.

Experimental top

For the preparation of the title compound, a solution of Ph2phen (0.44 g, 1.33 mmol) in methanol (10 ml) was added to a solution of CdBr2.4H2O (0.46 g, 1.33 mmol) in methanol (10 ml) at room temperature. Crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction experiment were obtained by methanol diffusion into a colorless solution in DMSO after one week (yield: 0.62 g, 77.1%).

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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.
