Abstract

In the title complex, [La(C5H3N2O2)(C2O4)(H2O)2]n, the LaIII ion is coordinated by one N and three O atoms from two pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands, by four O atoms from two oxalate ligands and by two O atoms of two water molecules, displaying a distorted bicapped square-anti­prismatic geometry. The carboxyl­ate groups of pyrazine-2-carboxyl­ate and oxalate ligands link the lanthanum metal centres, forming layers parallel to (10Inline graphic). The layers are further connected by inter­molecular O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions, forming a three-dimensional supra­molecular network.

Comment

The design, synthesis, characterization, and properties of supramolecular networks formed by using functionalized organic molecules as bridges between metal centers are of great interest(Eddaoudi et al., 2001; Rizk et al., 2005; Zeng et al.,2007). As a building block, pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid and oxalic acid are excellent candidates for the construction of supramolecular complexes. Herein, we reported the new coordination polymer, (I).

In (I), each LaIII centre is coordinated by seven oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom from two pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands, two oxalate ligands and two water molecules (Fig. 1), and represents a distorted bicapped square antiprismatic geometry. The LaIII ions are linked by pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands and oxalate ligands to form layers parallel to the (1 0 -1) plane (Fig.2), and the adjacent La···La separations are 6.570 (4) and 4.506 (5) Å, respectively. O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1), involving the pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands, coordinating water molecules and oxalate ligands assemble neighboring layers into a three-dimensional supramolecular network motif .

Experimental

A mixture of La2O3 (0.245 g; 0.75 mmol), pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (0.186 g; 1.5 mmol), oxalic acid(0.135 g; 1.5 mmol), water (10 mL) in the presence of HNO3 (0.024 g; 0.385 mmol) was stirred vigorously for 20 min and then sealed in a Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave (20 mL, capacity). The autoclave was heated and maintained at 433K for 3 days, and then cooled to room temperature at 5 K h-1 and obtained the colorless block crystals.

Refinement

Water H atoms were tentatively located in difference Fourier maps and were refined with distance restraints of O–H = 0.84 Å and H···H = 1.35 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O). In the last cycles of refinement they were treated as riding on the O atoms. Carbon-bound H atoms were placed at calculated positions and were treated as riding on their parent C atoms with C—H = 0.93 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C).

Special details

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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.
