Synthesis and Structural Characterization of a New Hydrogen-bonded Polyrotaxane of Co(H2O)62+ with 1,1'-(Propane-1,3-diyl)dipyridinium-4-carboxylate

摘要

A new double betaine 1,1 '-(propane-1,3-diyl)dipyridinium-4-carboxylate L has been synthesized. Reaction of 1,1'-(propane-1,3-diyl)dipyridinium-4-carboxylate tetrahydrate 1 With Co(ClO4)2·6H2O leads to the formation of a new Co(Ⅱ) coordination compound,namely [Co(H2O)6]·2H2O·2L·2ClO4 2.The crystal structures of 1 and 2 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. Crystal data for 1: monoclinic, space group C2/c, a =18.945(4), b = 7.700(2), c = 11.888(2) (A), β = 101.67(3)°, V = 1698.3(6) (A)3, Z = 4, F(000) =760.0, Dc = 1.402 g/cm3, the final R = 0.0607 and wR = 0.1607 for 950 observed reflections (I ＞2σ(I)); and those for 2: monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 17.982(1), b = 15.879 (1), c = 7.0716(5) (A), β = 100.675(1)°, V = 1984.3(3) (A)3, Z = 4, F(000) = 1010.0, Dc = 1.631 g/cm3, the final R = 0.0316 and wR = 0.0896 for 3784 observed reflections (I ＞2σ(I)). Crystal structure analysis indicates that in 1, molecules of L in a "V-shaped" conformation are linked to chains sustained by O-H…O hydrogen bonds between carboxylate groups and solvent water molecules.The chains are joined by O-H…O and C-H…O hydrogen bonds to further expand into a three-dimensional structure. For 2, molecules of L in a "Z-shaped" conformation are linked by hydrogen bonds between carboxylate groups and aqua ligands to form a chain of loops running down the b axis. The (2D→2D) polythreading in compound 2 represents the mode of parallel interpenetration of 2D sheets, having polyrotaxane character.
