Coordination polymer 4,4,10,10-tetramethyl-1,3,7,9-tetraazaspiro[5.5]undecane-2,8-dione with cobalt(II) nitrate: Synthesis and molecular structure

详细

The coordination polymer of cobalt(II) nitrate with bicyclic bis(urea), 4,4,10,10-tetramethyl-1,3,7,9-tetraazaspiro[5.5]undecane-2,8-dione (Sk) {[Co(C₁₁H₂₀N₄O₂)₂(H₂O), Co(C₁₁H₂₀N₄O₂)₂(H₂O)₂]⁴⁺(NO₃^-)₄}_n (I), is synthesized for the first time, and its atomic structure is determined (CIF file CCDC no. 925792). The crystals of compound I are monoclinic: space group P2/c, a = 26.1284(6), b = 7.1763(2), c = 17.1825(5) Å, β = 105.042(3)°, V = 3111.43(15) ų, ρ_calcd = 1.474 g/cm³, Z = 2. The powder X-ray pattern at 293 K is refined using the Rietveld method to confirm the single-phase character of the obtained sample of powdered compound I: a = 26.1456(9), b = 7.1810(4), c = 17.1997(11) Å, β = 105.016(3)°, V = 3119.0(3) ų. The content of the major phase of compound I in the sample is 100 ± 1%, and impurity phases are absent. The crystal of compound I contains two types of chains oriented along the crystallographic direction [001] with similar structures but differed in the coordination numbers of the cobalt atoms. The Co(1) atom has a coordination number of 5 (trigonal bipyramid), and the coordination number of the Co(2) atom is 6 (octahedron). The nitrate anions are uncoordinated.
