Abstract
The unit cell of the title compound, [FeII(NCS)2(C25H28N8)], consists of two charge-neutral complex molecules related by an inversion centre. In the complex molecule, the tetradentate ligand N 1,N 3-bis[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methylene]-2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diamine coordinates to the FeII ion through the N atoms of the 1,2,3-triazole moieties and aldimine groups. Two thiocyanate anions, coordinating through their N atoms, complete the coordination sphere of the central ion. In the crystal, neighbouring molecules are linked through weak C—H⋯π, C—H⋯S and C—H⋯N interactions into a two-dimensional network extending parallel to (011). The intermolecular contacts were quantified using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots, revealing the relative contributions of the contacts to the crystal packing to be H⋯H (35.2%), H⋯C/C⋯H (26.4%), H⋯S/S⋯H (19.3%) and H⋯N/N⋯H (13.9%).
Chemical context
Coordination complexes of 3d transition metals represent a large class of potentially applicable materials exhibiting catalytic (Strotmeyer et al., 2003 ▸), magnetic (Pavlishchuk et al., 2010 ▸) and spin-switching functionalities (Gütlich & Goodwin, 2004 ▸) with easily detectable and exploitable variations of physical properties (Gural’skiy et al., 2012 ▸; Suleimanov et al., 2015 ▸).
Iron(II) complexes based on Schiff bases derived from N-substituted 1,2,3-triazole aldehydes represent an interesting class of coordination compounds exhibiting spin-state switching between low- and high-spin states in different temperature regions (Hagiwara et al., 2014 ▸, 2016 ▸, 2020 ▸; Hora & Hagiwara, 2017 ▸). In charge-neutral mononuclear complexes of this kind described so far, the thiocyanate anions occupy the axial position of the coordination sphere and thus are in a trans-configuration (Hagiwara & Okada, 2016 ▸; Hagiwara et al., 2017 ▸).
Having ongoing interest in functional 3d metal complexes formed by polydentate ligands (Seredyuk et al., 2006 ▸, 2007 ▸, 2011 ▸, 2015 ▸, 2016 ▸; Seredyuk, 2012 ▸; Valverde-Muñoz et al., 2020 ▸), we report here the synthesis and crystal structure of a new high-spin FeII complex based on the tetradentate ligand N
1,N
3-bis[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methylene]-2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diamine with thiocyanate anions arranged in a cis-configuration.
Structural commentary
The FeII ion of the title complex has a distorted trigonal–prismatic N6 coordination environment formed by four N atoms of the tetradentate Schiff-base ligand and two NCS− counter-ions (Fig. 1 ▸). The average bond length <Fe—N> = 2.19 (9) Å is typical for high-spin complexes with an [FeN6] chromophore (Gütlich & Goodwin, 2004 ▸). The N—Fe—N angle between the cis-aligned thiocyanate N atoms is 87.58 (9)°. The average trigonal distortion parameters Σ = Σ1 12(|90 − φ i|), where φ i is the angle N—Fe—N′ (Drew et al., 1995 ▸), and Θ = Σ1 24(|60 − θ i|), where θ i is the angle generated by superposition of two opposite faces of an octahedron (Chang et al., 1990 ▸), are 453.2 and 149.38°, respectively. These values reveal a great deviation of the coordination environment from an ideal octahedron (where Σ = Θ = 0), and are significantly larger than those of similar [FeN6] high-spin trans-complexes (Hagiwara et al., 2017 ▸). With the aid of continuous shape measure (CShM), the closest shape of a coordination polyhedron and its distortion can be determined numerically (Kershaw Cook et al., 2015 ▸). The calculated CShM value relative to the ideal Oh symmetry for an octahedron is 6.285, while it is 4.008 relative to the ideal D 3h symmetry for a trigonal prism. Hence, the polyhedron is closer to the latter shape; however, it is notably distorted (for the ideal polyhedron CShM = 0). The volume of the [FeN6] coordination polyhedron is 12.4 Å3.

Supramolecular features
Neighbouring complex molecules form dimers through double weak contacts C18—H18B⋯Cg
i of 3.330 (3) Å (Cg corresponds to the centroid of the C20–C25 phenyl ring; symmetry codes refer to Table 1 ▸). The CH group of one of the triazole rings forms a weak hydrogen bond C7—H7⋯S1ii [3.755 (3) Å] with a thiocyanate anion. This, together with the C4—H4B⋯C27ii and C4—H4B⋯N10ii interactions [3.709 (3) and 3.617 (3) Å] involving the C≡N group of the anion, links the dimers into a supramolecular chain propagating parallel to [01
] (Fig. 2 ▸). These chains are weakly bound through double contacts between the benzyl groups and the thiocyanate anions [C21—H21⋯C27iii = 3.603 (3) Å] and triazole groups [C19—H19A⋯N7iii = 3.311 (3) Å] of neighbouring complex molecules, forming a two-dimensional supramolecular array extending parallel to (011).

Hirshfeld surface and 2D fingerprint plots
Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed and the associated two-dimensional fingerprint plots were generated using Crystal Explorer (Turner et al., 2018 ▸), with a standard resolution of the three-dimensional d norm surfaces plotted over a fixed colour scale of −0.2801 (red) to 1.8236 (blue) a.u. The pale-red spots symbolize short contacts and negative d norm values on the surface correspond to the interactions described above. The overall two-dimensional fingerprint plot is illustrated in Fig. 3 ▸. The Hirshfeld surfaces mapped over d norm are shown for the H⋯H, H⋯C/C⋯H, H⋯S/S⋯H, and H⋯N/N⋯H contacts, and the two-dimensional fingerprint plots are presented in Fig. 4 ▸, associated with their relative contributions to the Hirshfeld surface. At 35.2%, the largest contribution to the overall crystal packing is from H⋯H interactions, which are located in the middle region of the fingerprint plot. H⋯C/C⋯H contacts contribute 26.4%, and the H⋯S/S⋯H contacts contribute 19.3% to the Hirshfeld surface, both resulting in a pair of characteristic wings. The H⋯N/N⋯H contacts, represented by a pair of sharp spikes in the fingerprint plot, make a 13.9% contribution to the Hirshfeld surface.

Database survey
A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD 2020, update of May 2020; Groom et al., 2016 ▸) revealed four similar FeII thiocyanate complexes, derivatives of a 1,3-diaminopropanes and N-substituted 1,2,3-triazole aldehydes, viz. DURXEV, ADAQUU, ADAREF and solvatomorphs ADAROP and ADARUV (Hagiwara et al., 2017 ▸; Hagiwara & Okada, 2016 ▸). These complexes show hysteretic spin crossover with the Fe—N distances in the range 1.931–1.959 Å for the low-spin state and 2.154–2.169 Å for the high-spin state of the FeII ions. The reported pseudo-trigonal–prismatic complexes with an [FeN6] chromophore are formed by structurally hindered rigid hexadentate ligands favoring a trigonal–prismatic environment of the central FeII ion in the low- or high-spin state: CABLOH (Voloshin et al., 2001 ▸), BUNSAF (El Hajj et al., 2009 ▸), OWIHAE (Seredyuk et al., 2011 ▸), OTANOO (Stock et al., 2016 ▸). For comparison purposes, Table 2 ▸ collates the distortion parameters Σ, Θ and CShM for the latter complexes.

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. |
