Bis(acetonitrile-κN)(1,10-phenanthroline-κ² N,N′)platinum(II) bis­(perchlorate)

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Pt(CH₃CN)₂(C₁₂H₈N₂)](ClO₄)₂, contains one half of a cationic Pt^II complex and pair of half perchlorate anions, one of which is disordered over two sites in a 0.53 (3):0.47 (3) ratio. The complex and anions are disposed about a crystallographic mirror plane parallel to the ac plane passing through the Pt and Cl atoms. In the complex, the Pt^II ion lies in a distorted square-planar environment defined by four N atoms of the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and two distinct acetonitrile mol­ecules. The component ions inter­act by means of inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Comment

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Pt(phen)(CH₃CN)₂](ClO₄)₂ (where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, C₁₂H₈N₂), contains one half of a cationic Pt^II complex and half a perchlorate anion (Fig. 1). The complex and anions are disposed about a crystallographic mirror plane parallel to the ac plane passing through the Pt and Cl atoms (Fig. 2). In the complex, the Pt^II ion lies in a distorted square-planar environment defined by four N atoms of the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and two distinct acetonitrile molecules. The main contribution to the distortion is the tight N1—Pt1—N1ⁱ [symmetry code: (i) x,-y+1/2,z] chelate angle [81.9 (3)°], which results in non-linear trans arrangement [<N1—Pt1—N2ⁱ = 177.0 (2)°]. The Pt—N bond lengths are almost equal [Pt1—N(phen): 2.001 (6) Å; Pt1—N(CH₃CN): 1.994 (7) Å] (Table 1). The component ions interact by means of intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2 and Table 2).

Experimental

To a solution of AgClO₄.H₂O (0.1006 g, 0.446 mmol) in CH₃CN (70 ml) was added [PtCl₂(phen)] (0.0996 g, 0.223 mmol) and refluxed for 7 h. The mixture was filtered to remove AgCl and then the resulting solution was dried under vacuum. The residue was washed with CH₂Cl₂ and dried at 50 °C, to give a pale gray powder (0.1401 g). Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation from a CH₃CN solution.

Refinement

H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their respective parent atoms [C—H = 0.95 (aromatic) or 0.98 Å (CH₃) and U_iso(H) = 1.2U_eq(C) or 1.5U_eq(methyl C)]. The highest peak (2.23 e Å^-3) and the deepest hole (-1.82 e Å^-3) in the difference Fourier map are located 0.86 and 0.96 Å, respectively, from the atom Pt1. The O atoms (O4, O5 and O6) of the ClO₄ anion displayed relatively large displacement factors so that the anion appears to be partially disordered. The anion was modelled as disordered over two sites with a major site occupancy factor of 0.53 (3). A total of 18 restraints were used in the refinement using the following SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 2008) commands: SAME 0.020 Cl2' > O6' and DELU 0.010 Cl2 > O6'. In addition, the displacement parameters of the major and minor component atoms Cl2 Cl2' were constrained using the EADP command.

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 > 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.
