Abstract The Raman spectra of the two dimensional layered polymer compounds, M(2APM)2M 0 (CN)4 {where MZMn or Cd; and M 0 ZNi or Pt; 2APMZ2-aminopyrimidine} are reported in the 70–4000 cmK1 region. Vibrational data suggests that compounds are similar in structure to C2 the Hofmann type two dimensional coordination polymer compounds, formed with M 0 ðCNÞK2 4 ions bridged by Mð2APMÞ2 cations. 2-Aminopyrimidine was coordinated to M(II) through one of the nitrogen atom of its heterocycle ring. Vibrational assignments are given for the bands arising from the tetracyanometallate layers and coordinated 2APM. q 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction Pyrimidine is the parent heterocycle of very important group of compounds that have been extensively studied due to their occurrence in living systems. Aminopyrimidines are of great biological importance. NH2 groups substituted in pyrimidine rings are acidic components in hydrogen bonded interactions between pairs of nucleic bases responsible for formation of double helices in DNA and RNA [1,2]. Thus any information on their coordination properties is important as a means to understand the role of metal ions in biological systems. The well known Hofmann type two dimensional complexes, {M(L)2M 0 (CN)4}, are build by stacking the two dimensional extended metal (M 0 ) cyanide layers [3,4]. The two dimensional layer is constructed by the alternate linkage between square-planar M 0 (II) (M 0 ZNi, Pd or Pt) and octahedral M(II) (MZMn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn or Cd) through the cyanide bridges. The octahedral coordination of M(II) is satisfied by four N-terminals of the cyano groups and two
nitrogen atoms of the two N-donor ligands (L) in trans configuration, protruding above and below the network [3,4]. We have previously reported the IR spectra of M(2APM)2 Ni(CN)4 complexes {where MZMn, Co, Ni or Cd} [5] and shown that the compounds are similar in structure to the Hofmann type two dimensional coordination polymer compounds, formed with NiðCNÞK2 ions bridged by 4 Mð2APMÞC2 2 cations. 2APM is coordinated to M(II) through one of the pyrimidine ring nitrogen atoms. We now report the Raman spectra of the M(2APM)2Ni(CN)4 {where MZMn or Cd; 2APMZ2-aminopyrimidine, abbreviated hereafter as M–Ni–2APM} for the first time in the 70–4000 cmK1 region. In order to compare the vibrational modes of the polymeric layers, the M(2APM)2Pt(CN)4 (MZCd or Mn) compounds were also prepared for the first time and their IR (400–4000 cmK1) and Raman data are reported. The aim of this study is to investigate the coordination ability of 2APM and to examine the ligand modes, particularly the vibrational modes arising metal–ligand bonds. 2. Experimental

The complexes were prepared by adding slightly more than two moles of 2-aminopyrimidine and 1 mole of potassium tetracyanometallate aqueous solution to 1 mole of M(II) chloride solution using constant stirring. The C, H, N analyses were carried out for all the samples and the results were found to fit the proposed formulae well. The FTRaman spectra of the powdered samples were recorded on a Bruker RFS 100/S FT-Raman instrument using 1064 nm excitation from an Nd:YAG laser. The detector is a liquid nitrogen cooled Ge detector and 100 scans were accumulated. The IR spectra of nujol mulls or KBr discs were recorded on a Jasco 300E FT-IR spectrometer (2 cmK1 resolution).
3. Results and discussion The Raman spectra of the Mn–Ni–2APM and Cd–Ni– 2APM complexes are given in Fig. 1a and b, respectively. The IR and Raman spectra of Mn–Pt–2APM complex are given in Figs. 2 and 3, respectively. The vibrational spectra of the M–Pt–2APM complexes are very similar to those of M–Ni–2APM, indicating that they have analogous structures.

3.1. Vibrations of 2-aminopyrimidine 2-Aminopyrimidine has endo- and exo-cyclic nitrogen donors for coordination. The amino nitrogen atom is known to be more basic in comparison to the pyrimidine ring nitrogens [6]. However, in some 2-aminopyrimidine complexes the coordination of the 2-aminopyrimidine with the metal occurs through the endocyclic ring nitrogen [7–9], whereas in others the 2-aminopyrimidine coordinates to the metal through the amino nitrogen [6,10]. The vibrational wavenumbers of 2APM are tabulated in Table 1 in comparison with those of microcrystalline 2APM [5,11] and 2APM in a Ne matrix [12]. In our previous study based on IR spectroscopic results it was concluded that the 2APM molecule in Mn–Ni–2APM and Cd–Ni–2APM complexes, is coordinated to metal through one of the pyrimidine ring nitrogen atoms as a monodentate ligand [5] and the amino group nitrogen is not involved in the complex formation. Raman spectra support the previous findings. We clearly observed the symmetric stretching mode of NH2 group at 3378–3415 cmK1 in the Raman spectra of the compounds

studied, higher than that of microcrystalline 2APM (3244 cmK1 IR). On the other hand, in the IR spectra of the M–Pt–2APM complexes, the na(NH2) and ns(NH2) modes are also found to have higher wavenumbers than those of microcrystalline 2APM (Table 1). Since it is well known that a coordinated amino group shows a negative shift around 100–150 cmK1, spectroscopic findings confirm that amino group nitrogen does not take part in coordination. Moreover, the n(C–NH2) mode of aniline and aniline derivatives shows a negative shift, DZ50–60 cmK1, upon coordination [13,14], but we do not observe such a drastic red shift of this mode in the M–M 0 –2APM complexes (Table 1) which is further evidence of non-coordination through the amino nitrogen. It must be noted that, according to X-ray results [15], in solid phase, amino group hydrogens of 2APM are involved in H-bonding interactions. The na(NH2) and ns(NH2) wavenumbers are obtained 3493–3522 and 3373–3415 cmK1 regions, respectively in the IR spectra of the M–M 0 –2APM complexes and the lowest in Cd–Ni– 2APM (3493 and 3373 cmK1) (Table 1 and Ref. [5]). The na(NH2) and ns(NH2) modes of 2APM were observed at
3540 and 3430 cmK1, respectively, in the IR spectra of 2APM in CCl4 solution [16]. Thus, although the na(NH2) and ns(NH2) modes of M–M 0 –2APM complexes are found to be higher in wavenumber than those of microcrystalline 2APM [5,11], they are slightly lower in value than those of 2APM in CCl4 solution [16] and in Ne matrix [12], indicating that the amino group hydrogens may be involved in a weak hydrogen bonding interaction, probably with guest water molecules, but H-bonding interaction must be weaker than in solid. It must be noted that samples are found to contain small amount of water as guest species (n(H2O) is observed around 3610 cmK1 as a weak intense band). As mentioned above, the lowest wavenumbers for amino group stretching modes were obtained for Cd–Ni–2APM complex, in which CN stretching modes (Eu, Ag and Bg) wavenumbers are also found to be the lowest as will be discussed below. In the case of Cd–Ni–2APM these relatively low wavenumbers (for NH2 str. and CN str.) may be due to inter molecular hydrogen bonding interaction between amino group hydrogens and pi electrons of CN group of the tetracyanonickelate layer. This result will be further

discussed below. The absence of large systematic shifts to lower wavenumbers for na(NH2), ns(NH2) and n(C–NH2) vibrational bands in the IR and Raman spectra of the complexes studied, implies that there is no interaction between the amino group nitrogen and the metal (MZMn or Cd). In the case of pyridine–metal complexes, a shift to higher wavenumber in the ring breathing mode is used as a guide to metal coordination [17–18]. The increase in value in certain ring modes was found to be both due to coupling with M–N (pyridine) bond vibrations and alterations of the ring force field [17,19]. We clearly observed upward frequency shift on the ring breathing mode of 2APM and the other coordination sensitive modes, which were marked in bold in Table 1. Therefore, based on the spectral results, it is concluded that the ring nitrogen and not the amino nitrogen is involved in complex formation. 3.2. Vibrations of the polymeric sheet The polymeric sheet structure of M–Ni–2APM and M–Pt–2APM compounds consists of a network of either Ni(CN)4 or Pt(CN)4 groups. If a local C4h environment for the Ni or Pd atom is assumed, one IR active (Eu) and two Raman active (Ag and Bg) CN stretching vibrations are expected. This is what we observed in the vibrational spectra of the M–Pt–2APM compounds. Relative to the high wavenumber region, the assignment for below the 300 cmK1 region is more complex because of the lack of the far IR and Raman data. But we took the advantage of studying isostructural compounds.
The assignment reported here based on the band shifts introduced by Pt substitution instead of Ni, in tetracyanometallate layers and on the comparison with the Raman spectra of Hofmann type clathrates [20,21] and tetracyanometallate complexes [18] where available. The wavenumbers of the tetracyanometallate group and those of metal-2APM vibrations {n(M–L) 2APM and d(LML)2APM} are given in Table 2. In the case of Cd– Ni–2APM, the CN stretching (Ag, Bg and Eu) wavenumbers are lower than those of Mn–Ni–2APM. A possible reason for the lower wavenumbers in the Cd–Ni–2APM complex is the presence of hydrogen bonding between NH2 group of 2APM and the pi electrons of the cyanide groups of the tetracyanide sheet leading a reduction in the force constant of the ChN bond. As discussed previous section the amino group stretching wavenumbers of the Cd–Ni– 2APM complex was found to be the lowest among the M–M 0 –2APM complexes studied. According to the X-ray crystallographic studies on Hofmann type compounds, the unit cell dimensions increase with the increasing ionic radius of the octahedral metal (M), where square-planar metal (M 0 ) is the same [3]. Therefore probably unit cell dimensions of the Cd–Ni–2APM complex are more suitable than the others for such interaction. In the case of M–Pt–2APM complexes, Pt substitution result in upward shift in the CN stretching bands. Similar shifts were also observed in Ni(NH3)2Pd(CN)4$2C6H6 clathrate [22] and M(aniline)Pt(CN)4 complexes [13], and explained by the difference in the electronegativity between Ni and Pd or Pt, the oxidation state being the same for both metals [13,18,22].

4. Conclusion IR and Raman spectroscopy provides a powerful means to assess the effects of coordination and the coordination mode on 2APM. From these spectroscopic studies it is concluded that 2APM acts as a monodentate ligand and bonding through the endocyclic nitrogen in the two new complexes prepared (Mn–Pt–2APM and Cd–Pt–2APM) and Raman results confirmed previous predicted structure for M–Ni–2APM complexes. Comparison of the vibrational wavenumbers of tetracyanametallate sheet of the isostructural compounds lead us to express a tentative assignment for n(M–N)2APM, n(M–NC) and d(NMN)2APM vibrations. However some more data for the low wavenumber region of the tetracyanometallate compounds are needed to be sure in the assignment. Our future study will be devoted on this subject.
