Abstract

Solvothermal reaction (water/methanol) of cobalt perchlorate hexahydrate, sodium thiocyanate and 2-(pyridine-3-yloxy)pyrazine (PP) resulted in the formation of a two-dimensional coordination polymer [Co(μ-PP)2(SCN)2]n. The solid complex has been characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy; its crystal structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n, a = 7.4643(19) A, b = 9.237(2) A, c = 15.540(4) A, β = 94.995(5)°, V = 1067.4(5) A3, Z = 1. In the crystal structure each 2-(pyridine-3-yloxy)pyrazine molecule acts as a bidentate bridging ligand coordinating to two adjacent Co(II) ions with Co...Co separation of 9.5176(18) A to yield a two-dimensional sheet structure in the plane (−1 0 1).
