?-2,3,5,6-Tetra-kis(pyridin-2-yl)pyrazine-bis-[(2,2':6',2''-terpyridine)-ruthenium(II)] tetra-kis-(hexa-fluoridophosphate) acetonitrile tetra-solvate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound [Ru(2)(C(15)H(11)N(3))(2)(C(24)H(16)N(6))](PF(6))(4)·4CH(3)CN, two of the counter-ions and one of the solvent mol-ecules are disordered with occupancies for the major components between 0.57?(2) and 0.64?(1). The structure of the dinuclear tetracation exhibits significant distortion from planarity in the bridging 2,3,5,6-tetra-kis-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrazine (tppz) ligand, which has a saddle-like geometry with an average dihedral angle of 42.96?(18)° between adjacent pyridine rings. The metal-ligand coordination environment is nearly equivalent for the two Ru(II) atoms, which have a distorted octa-hedral geometry due to the restricted bite angle [157.57?(13)-159.28?(12)°] of their two mer-arranged tridendate ligands [2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (tpy) and tppz] orthogonal to each other. At the peripheral tpy ligands, the average Ru-N bond distance is 2.072?(4)?Å for the outer N atoms trans to each other (N(outer)) and 1.984?(1)?Å for the central N atoms (N(central)). At the bridging tppz ligand, the average metal-ligand distances are significantly shorter [2.058?(4)?Å for Ru-N(outer) and 1.965?(1)?Å for Ru-N(central)] as a result of both the geometric constraints and the stronger ?-acceptor ability of the pyrazine-centered bridge. The dihedral angle between the two tpy planes is 27.11?(6)°. The intra-molecular linear distance between the two Ru atoms is 6.6102?(7)?Å.

Project description:Two polymorphs of the title tetra-kis-substituted pyrazine carb-oxy-lic acid, 3,3',3'',3'''-{[pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetra-yltetra-kis-(methyl-ene))tetra-kis-(sulfanedi-yl]}tetra-propionic acid, C20H28N2O8S4, (H4L1), have been obtained, H4L1_A and H4L1_B. Each structure crystallized with half a mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit of a triclinic P unit cell. The whole mol-ecules are generated by inversion symmetry, with the pyrazine rings being located about inversion centers. The crystals of H4L1_B were of poor quality, but the X-ray diffraction analysis does show the change in conformation of the -CH2-S-CH2-CH2- side chains compared to those in polymorph H4L1_A. In the crystal of H4L1_A, mol-ecules are linked by two pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, enclosing R 2 2(8) ring motifs forming layers parallel to plane (100), which are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a supra-molecular framework. In the crystal of H4L1_B, mol-ecules are also linked by two pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds enclosing R 2 2(8) ring motifs, however here, chains are formed propagating in the [001] direction and stacking up the a-axis. Reaction of H4L1 with Hg(NO3)2 in the presence of a potassium acetate buffer did not produce the expected binuclear complex, instead crystals of a potassium-organic framework were obtained, poly[(μ-3-{[(3,5,6-tris-{[(2-carb-oxy-eth-yl)sulfan-yl]meth-yl}pyrazin-2-yl)meth-yl]sulfan-yl}propano-ato)potassium], [K(C20H27N2O8S4)] n (KH3L1). The organic mono-anion possesses inversion symmetry with the pyrazine ring being located about an inversion center. A carb-oxy H atom is disordered by symmetry and the charge is compensated for by a potassium ion. A similar reaction with Zn(NO3)2 resulted in the formation of crystals of a dipotassium-organic framework, poly[(μ-3,3'-{[(3,6-bis-{[(2-carb-oxy-eth-yl)sulfan-yl]meth-yl}pyrazine-2,5-di-yl)bis(methyl-ene)]bis-(sulfanedi-yl)}dipropionato)dipotassium], [K2(C20H26N2O8S4)] n (K2H2L1). Here, the organic di-anion possesses inversion symmetry with the pyrazine ring being located about an inversion center. Two symmetry-related acid groups are deprotonated and the charges are compensated for by two potassium ions.
