Abstract New complex [Zn(quin-2-c)2(Him)2] (quin-2-c = quinoline-2-carboxylate ion, Him = imidazole) was synthesized by self assembly and its structure was determined by X-ray analysis. The compound crystallizes in P21/c space group. Four independent molecules of complex are present in the structure. Strong hydrogen bonds create three different 1D chains which are collected in two different layers. The alternately packed layers form the 3D supramolecular structure. The interchain and interlayer contacts are of the C–H  O, p  p and C– H  p type. The influence of strong hydrogen bond on the vibrational characteristics of the monodentately coordinated carboxylate group in zinc complexes with quin-2-c ion is discussed.  2005 Elsevier B.V.

Carboxylates are efficient catalysts in the biological and chemical processes [1]. The carboxylate group offers a variety of coordination modes and many types of complexes are known [2]. The need for characterization of the metal enzyme centers as well as the searches for new catalytic or magnetic materials causes an incessant interest in carboxylate chemistry. Quinoline-2-carboxylic acid is the biological compound involved in the metabolism of tryptophan [3]. It is a strong chelator providing the donor set similar to that responsible for binding metal ion in PQQ cofactor of quinoprotein family [4]. To date three zinc complexes with quin-2-c ion have been obtained and structurally characterized: [Zn(MEDA)(quin-2-c)] [5] (MEDA = N-(2-mercaptoethyl)picolylamine), [Zn(quin-2-c)2(1-Meim)2] [6] and [Zn(quin-2-c)2(H2O)] [7]. In these complexes, quin-2-c ion binds in a N,O chelate mode and the metal environment mimics the zinc enzyme centers. In the crystals of the mentioned compounds, strong hydrogen bonds and *

weak intermolecular interactions of the C–H  O, C– H  p and p  p type lead to the formations of 2D and 3D supramolecular frameworks. As a continuation of our interest in quinoline-2-carboxylates, we have synthesized [Zn(quin-2-c)2(Him)2] and studied its crystal structure. The significant differences in the hydrogen bonding systems in [Zn(quin-2-c)2(1-Meim)2], [Zn(quin-2-c)2(H2O)] and [Zn(quin-2-c)2(Him)2] are expressively reflected in the vibrational characteristics of the monodentate carboxylate group. cis-Bis(quinoline-2-carboxylato) bis imidazole zinc(II) was obtained from the reaction of Zn(ClO4)2 Æ 6H2O with a twofold excess quinoline-2-carboxylic acid and five equivalents of imidazole in the form of the single crystals. Crystals are air stable and have very limited solubility in common organic solvents [8]. The crystal structure of the complex was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction [9,10]. In the crystal of [Zn(quin-2-c)2(Him)2], four independent molecules of the complex have been found (a, b, c and d). A drawing of the molecular structure (Fig. 1) represents the molecule of the title complex.

rings in a, b, c and d equals 113.8(1). Two molecules of imidazole connected with zinc by aromatic nitrogen atoms are located in cis position. The medium value of Zn–NHim ˚ , is very close to that found for distance, 2.116(4) A [Zn(quin-2-c)2(1-Meim)2] [6] and is a little longer than the ˚) typical value observed for octahedral complexes (2.084 A [11]. Zinc–oxygen bond lengths in the studied complex are close to the literature data [5–7,11]. The zinc–quinoline ˚ nitrogen distances in a, b, c and d are very long (2.354(4) A – medium value) when compared with those observed for other complexes of Zn with quin-2-c ion as well as in the octahedral complexes of zinc with pyridine ligands ˚ ) [11]. The geometry around zinc ion is severely (2.111 A distorted. The bite angle of the chelating ligand is very small in the studied compound. Its medium value equals 75.93(4), whereas the relevant values are 79.5 and 78.33 for [Zn(quin-2-c)2(H2O)] [7] and 77.9 for [Zn(quin-2-c)2(1-Meim)2] [6]. The intramolecular hydrogen bond of the C–H  O type stabilizes the molecules of a, b, c and d, see Table 2. Various intermolecular interactions organize the supramolecular structure of the crystal.

bonds of the N–H  O type (Table 2) create the 1D chains propagating along the crystallographic c-axis, Fig. 2. Three different chains can be distinguished: the first made of molecules a, the second built of molecules b and third comprising alternately positioned molecules c and d. The chains are collected in layers, Fig. 3. Two former chains are alternately packed in layer A, while layer B is made of the latter type of chains. Layers A and B are lo-

cated alternately and create the 3D structure. The interchain interactions within layers are of the offset p  p type [12]. The interlayer p  p interactions are accompanied by C–H  O hydrogen bonds and C–H  p contacts, Figs. 3 and 4. The Dm(COO) = mas(COO) ms(COO) value which is commonly used in diagnosing the nature of carboxylate coordination follows the order Dmmonodentate > Dmionic  Dmbridging > Dmchelate [13]. However, it is known that strong hydrogen bonding to the oxygen atom, not coordinated to the metal ion, in complexes with monodentate carboxylate group decreases the Dm value; this fact is very often neglected. To show the magnitude of the changes in D(COO) value caused by strong hydrogen bonding, we have compared the vibrational and structural characteristics of carboxylate group in [Zn(quin-2-c)2(Him)2] and [Zn(quin-2-c)2(1-Meim)2] (Table 3). In both compounds, the COO group of quin-2-c ligand binds to zinc in monodentate mode and the donor sets around the Zn2+ ions are the same (N4O2). The secondary ligands, imidazole and 1-methylimidazole, also coordinate to zinc in the same manner, through the aromatic (N3) nitrogen atom. In the crystal of [Zn(quin-2-c)2(Him)2], the strong hydrogen bridges of N–H  O type are observed, whereas in [Zn(quin-2-c)2(1-Meim)2] only weak C–H  O interactions are found. The Dm found for the former compound (223 cm 1) is smaller by 53 cm 1 than that observed for the latter complex (276 cm 1). According to the general rule, this value is characteristic of carboxylate bridging mode. The Dm value corresponding to the monodentate carboxylate group in [Zn(quin-2-c)2 (H2O)] is also significantly smaller than expected, and equals 240 cm 1. In this complex, strong intermolecular hydrogen bond between the coordinated water molecule and the carboxylate oxygen atom has been found (Table 3). Such low values of Dm have been reported for other monodentate carboxylates with C@O group involved in strong hydrogen bond [14] in all these cases the results of the X-ray analysis allowed to assign unambiguously the binding mode of carboxylate group. In conclusion, the new mixed ligand complex of zinc has been obtained by self assembly. The carboxylate ligands and imidazole molecules complete the strongly distorted octahedral coordination sphere around Zn2+ ion in cis configuration. In the crystal, four independent molecules are found. The title complex forms the supramolecular structure due to a variety of intermolecular interactions. Strong

intermolecular hydrogen bonds create three types of 1D chains. The chains are arranged in two different layers which are packed alternately into 3D structure. The two latter supramolecular motifs result from the C–H  O, C– H  p and p  p type interactions. Strong hydrogen bonds severely influence the vibrational characteristics of the carboxylate group. It is shown that the determination of the type of coordination of the carboxylate group cannot be made on the basis of their IR spectra only. Appendix A.
