Crystal structure of bis-(azido-κN)bis[2,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3,4-thia-diazole-κ(2) N (2),N (3)]cobalt(II)

Self-assembly of new cobalt complexes based on [Co (SCN)4], synthesis, empirical, antioxidant activity, and quantum theory investigations

The cobalt (II) complexes have been synthesized from the reaction of the cationic entities (3,4-dimethylaniline (1) and histamine (2)) with metallic salt CoCl2⋅6H2O and thiocyanate ion (SCN-) as a ligand in H2O/ethanolic solution and processing by the evaporation crystal growth method at room temperature to get crystals. The synthesized complex has been fully characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. UV-Visible, FTIR spectroscopy, TGA analysis, and DFT circulations were also performed. The crystal structural analysis reveals that the solid (1) {[Co(SCN)4] (C8H12N)3}·Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic system with the space group P21/n and the solid (2) {[Co(SCN)4](C5H11N3)2}·2Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/m. Metal cations are joined into corrugated chains parallel to the b-axis direction in (1) and (2) by four thiocyanate anions. The crystal structures of (1) and (2) were calculated using XRPD data, indicating that they are closely connected to the DRX mono-crystal results. Different interactions pack the system into a ring formed by N-H⋯Cl and N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯π and the π⋯π stacking of anilinuim ring for (1) and N-H⋯S intermolecular interactions for (1) and (2) increase the crystals' robustness. Hirshfeld surface analysis cum 2D fingerprint plots visualize the main intermolecular interactions with their contributions in the solid-state phase. The molecular geometries of both complexes obtained from the crystal structure were used for quantum chemical calculation. Here, frontier orbital analysis and electrostatic potential illustrate the chemical reactivities of metal-organic complexes. QTAIM and NCI analysis reveal the strength of interactions at the electronic level.

2-[5-(Pyridin-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]pyridin-1-ium perchlorate

The cation of the title molecular salt, C12H9N4S+·ClO4 −, is approximately planar, with the pyridine and pyridinium rings being inclined to the central thiadiazole ring by 6.51 (9) and 9.13 (9)°, respectively. The dihedral angle between the pyridine and pyridinium rings is 12.91 (10)°. In the crystal, the cations are linked by N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, involving the perchlorate anion, forming chains propagating along the [100] direction. The chains are linked by weak offset π–π interactions [inter-centroid distance = 3.586 (1) Å], forming layers parallel to the ab plane.

Crystal structure of bis-[2,5-bis-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3,4-thia-diazole-κ(2) N (2),N (3)]bis-(thio-cyanato-κS)copper(II)

The mononuclear title complex, [Cu(SCN)2(C12H8N4S)2], was obtained by the reaction of 2,5-bis-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3,4-thia-diazole and potassium thio-cyanate with copper(II) chloride dihydrate. The copper cation lies on an inversion centre and displays an elongated octa-hedral coordination geometry. The equatorial positions are occupied by the N atoms of two 2,5-bis-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3,4-thia-diazole ligands, whereas the axial positions are occupied by the S atoms of two thio-cyanate anions. The thia-diazole and the pyridyl rings linked to the metal are approximately coplanar, with a maximum deviation from the mean plane of 0.190 (2) Å. The cohesion of the crystal structure is ensured by weak C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and π-π inter-actions between parallel pyridyl rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.663 (2) Å], leading to a three-dimensional network.
