Abstract

In the title compound, [CoCl2(C10H8N2S)2]n, the CoII atom is located on an inversion centre and is six-coordinated by four N atoms of four symmetry-related di-4-pyridyl sulfide ligands, and two Cl atoms in trans positions, in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. The bridging bidentate di-4-pyridyl sulfide ligands link the CoII centres into a three-dimensional network. The four coordinating pyridine groups are donors and acceptors (N atoms) for intra­molecular C—H⋯N and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.

Comment

As well known, di-4-pyridyl sulfide possesses a magic angle (C-S-C, ~100°) and conformational nonrigidity so it has some flexibility compared with other linear rigid ligands such as simple 4, 4'-bipyridine analogues. A number of metal complexes derived from di-4-pyridyl sulfide have been reported previously, such as the silver(I) complexes (Jung et al., 1999), copper(II) complexes (Muthu et al., 2005), nickel(II) complex (Kondo et al., 2004), as well as the cobalt(II) complex that showing 2-fold interpenetrating structures (Jung et al., 1998).

As shown in Fig. 1, the local geometry of the cobalt atoms is a distorted octahedral arrangement with two chlorine atoms in trans positions and four pyridine units in a propeller arrangement (Tab. 1). Each di-4-pyridyl sulfide ligand connects two cobalt(II) ions defining the edges of a 40-membered [Co(II)]4 sheet (Fig. 2). The bent angle of the sulfur atom [C-S-C = 102.90 (10) °]. The Co-Co separation through a di-4-pyridyl sulfide ligand is 11.2646 (10) Å, and through the diagonal of the rhombus is 15.355 (2) Å. There are six intramolecular C—H···N and C—H···Cl hydrogen bonding contacts around the coordination sphere of the cobalt atom (Tab. 2). The packing of the layered structure is shown in Fig.3.

Experimental

To a stirred solution of di-4-pyridyl sulfide (0.5 mmol) in ethanol-H2O 20 ml (v/v, 1:1) was added solid CoCl2(0.5 mmol). Then the obtained mixture was basified with NaOH (0.5 mol/l) to a pH of 6.0 and stirred at 343K for 4h, filtrated. One week later, red crystals appeared.

Refinement

The H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding, with C—H = 0.93 Å (CH) and Uĩso~(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).
