Abstract Two new coordination polymers, [(oxa)Fe(DPA)] (1) (DPA= 2,2-dipyridylamine; oxa = oxalate) and [(oxa)Ni(DPA)] (2), were synthesized through a self-assembly chemical process under hydrothermal conditions, and characterized by single crystal structures. The CH···O hydrogen bonds in 1 and 2 play important roles in the crystal packing of the two new compounds. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction Crystal engineering of metal – organic polymers with functional building blocks may produce framework polymers with tunable properties [1 – 5]. The directionality of the covalent bonds resulting from metal –organic ligand interactions has been extensively exploited for the synthesis of framework coordination polymers [5 – 9]. Compared to the crystal engineering of organic and supramolecular design, the directionality of hydrogen bonds and their influence on crystal packing in coordination polymers are less developed [10 – 13]. In tuning the network structures and properties of metal – organic polymers, many subtle interactions such as weaker hydrogen bonds need to be considered. The detailed information regarding such interactions and their reproducibility in constructing networks is essential and constitutes extremely challenging subjects [10]. While hydrogen bonds are widely used in building supramolecular structures, the new findings of such interactions in coordination polymers for rational design and construction of new framework structures are * Corresponding author.

apparently important. Here, we wish to report the synthesis and crystal structures of two new metal –organic polymers, [(oxa)Fe(DPA)] (1) (DPA =2,2dipyridylamine; oxa= oxalate) and [(oxa)Ni(DPA)] (2), with both NH···O and CH···O hydrogen bonds that play a key role in the crystal packing of the two new structures.
2. Experimental
2.1. Materials and methods All chemicals were purchased from Aldrich and used without further purification. Thermal gravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis were performed on a TGA 2050 thermal gravimetric analyzer with a heating rate of 10 °C min − 1.
2.2. Synthesis Both compounds 1 and 2 were synthesized by reacting FeBr2 (0.2157 g, 0.0010 mol) or NiBr2 (0.2185 g, 0.0010 mol) with oxalic acid (0.1261 g, 0.0010 mol) and 2,2-dipyridylamine (0.1712 g, 0.0010 mol) in the molar ratio 1:1:1 in 6 ml water. The reactions were carried out

2.3. Single-crystal structure determination 2.3.1. X-ray structure determination of [(oxa)Fe(DPA)] An orange–yellow block of dimensions 0.14× 0.18× 0.30 mm was mounted in the 90 K nitrogen cold stream provided by a CRYO Industries low-temperature apparatus on the goniometer head of a Bruker SMART 1000 diffractometer. Diffraction data were collected with graphite-monochromated Mo Ka radiation employing a 0.3°
scan and approximately a full sphere of data to a maximum 2[ of 63°. An empirical correction for absorption was applied using the program SADABS 2.0. A total of 17007 reflections were collected, of which 3972 were unique (Rint = 0.046) and 3099 were observed (I\ 2|(I)). The structure was solved by direct methods (SHELXS-97) and refined by full-matrix least-squares on F 2. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined with anisotropic thermal parameters. Hydrogen atoms were refined using a riding model. The maximum and minimum peaks in the final difference Fourier map corresponded to 0.513 and −0.294 e A, − 3. Crystal data and additional details are provided in Table 1. Selected bond distances and angles are listed in Table 2. Hydrogen-bond distances and angles are listed in Table 4. 2.3.2. X-ray structure determination of [(oxa)Ni(DPA)] A blue plate of dimensions 0.07× 0.16× 0.19 mm was selected for data collection and handled in the same manner as for the Fe compound. A total of 33405 reflections were collected, of which 4016 were unique (Rint = 0.038) and 3141 were observed. The structure was solved and refined as above. The maximum and minimum peaks in the final difference Fourier map corresponded to 0.605 and −0.537 e A, − 3. Crystal data and additional details are provided in Table 1. Selected bond distances and angles are listed in Table 3. Hydrogen-bond distances and angles are listed in Table 5.

3. Results and discussion Complex 1 consists of octahedral metal centers of the iron atom surrounded by two tetradentate oxalates and one bidentate DPA ligand (Fig. 1) and is extended as twisted zigzag one-dimensional chains (Fig. 2). The twisting of the one-dimensional chains is in such a way that one pair of the N− H···O (N(2) − H(2)···O(1) 2.8534(18) A, ) and C − H···O (C(7) − H(7)···O(1) 3.249(2) A, ) hydrogen bonds from the same DPA molecule can link to the same oxygen atom in the adjacent chain to form a mixed NH···O and CH···O hydrogen bonding linkage (Fig. 2). These mixed NH···O and CH···O hydrogen-bond pairs are not mutually linked between the two adjacent one-dimensional chains; it is only one way and the other C− H···O (C(9)−H(9)···O(4) 3.403(2) A, ) hydrogen bonds are formed between one chain in this pair and another chain (Fig. 3), and this linking pathway propagates to result in a three-dimensional network. Similar to the structure of 1, the structure of 2 also consists of octahedral nickel metal centers coordinated by two oxalate ligands and one DPA ligand (Fig. 4) to form zigzag chains along the [110] direction (Fig. 5). The one-dimensional chains are then linked by NH···O hydrogen bonds (N(2) −H(2)···O(4) 2.906(2) A, ) in one direction (Fig. 5) and CH···O hydrogen bonds (C(3)− H(3)···O(1) 3.374(2) A, ) in another direction (Fig. 6) to result in a three-dimensional structure. The NH···O

hydrogen bonds in 2 are mutually formed between the two adjacent one-dimensional chains (Fig. 5). Compared with the crystal structure of [(oxa)Co(DPA)] [14] in which only mutual N− H···O (N(H)···O, 2.879(2) A, ) hydrogen bonds are formed between the two adjacent one-dimensional chains, and with the absence of CH···O hydrogen bonds it resulted in a two-dimensional structure. Although the NH···O hydrogen bonds are much weaker relative to the covalent bonds, the directionality of the NH···O hydrogen bonding is strongly shown in these structures. The CH···O hydrogen bonds formed in 1 and 2 are clearly different and they contribute directly to the formation of the threedimensional structures although the real reason for the difference is not completely understood. Hydrogen bonds have now been widely used in the crystal engineering of coordination polymers [15–19], but the CH···O hydrogen bonds found in 1 and 2 and their influence on crystal packing are different. It has been reviewed that in general, the CH···O hydrogen bonds determine crystal packing when stronger hydrogen bonding is absent in supramolecular structures [11]. In the cases of 1 and 2, it is clear that the CH···O
2448

hydrogen bonds are strong enough even when the stronger covalent bonding and NH···O hydrogen bonding are present so that the new crystal packing structures are resulted where the different orientations of the oxalate ligands in the chains were formed to comply with the linking requirement. The metaloxygen distances, FeO, in 1 range from 2.062(1) to 2.224(1) A, , and NiO distances in 2 vary from 2.036(1) to 2.091(1) A, , and are comparable with those found in oxalato complexes (FeO, 1.962(2)– 2.039(2) A, ; NiO, 2.10(2)– 2.13(1) A, ) [20a,b] (FeO, 2.116(4) A, ; NiO, 2.048(2) A, ) [20c].

tances ranging from 2.029(2) to 2.062(2) A, are comparable with those found in Ni3(DPA)4Cl2·THF (1.889(5)–2.099(5) A, ) [21]. The thermal analyses for 1 and 2 indicate that they are very stable and undergo a single-step weight loss. Compound 1 lost both oxalate and dipyridylamine ligands from approximately 280 to 330 °C. The compound 2 is thermally stable up to 377 °C and the decomposition process was completed at 470 °C.

The present study has shown that the CH···O hydrogen bonds play important roles in the crystal pack-

ing of the coordination polymers. While we are tuning network structures and properties of metal– organic polymers, detailed information regarding hydrogenbonding interactions and their reproducibility are essential and should be extensively explored.
