Metal atom motion, vibrational anisotropy and hydrogen bonding effects in octamethylferrocenylmethanol

The title compound, [Cu(C4H10NO)I(C4H11NO)], was obtained unintentionally as the product of an attempted synthesis of a Cu/Zn mixed-metal complex using zerovalent copper, zinc(II) oxide and ammonium iodide in pure 2-(dimethylamino)ethanol, in air. The molecular complex has no crystallographically imposed symmetry. The coordination geometry around the metal atom is distorted square-pyramidal. The equatorial coordination around copper involves donor atoms of the bidentate chelating 2-(dimethylamino)ethanol ligand and the 2-(dimethylamino)ethanolate group, which are mutuallytransto each other, with four approximately equal short Cu—O/N bond distances. The axial Cu—I bond is substantially elongated. Intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions involving the –OH group of the neutral 2-(dimethylamino)ethanol ligand to the O atom of the monodeprotonated 2-(dimethylamino)ethanolate group of the molecule related by then-glide plane, as indicated by the O...O distance of 2.482 (12) Å, form chains of molecules propagating along [101].

The title compound, {(C6H8N)[AgWSe4]·C6H7N}n, consists of anionic [WAgSe4]nchains, 2-methylpyridinium cations and neutral 2-methylpyridine molecules. The Se atoms bridge the Ag and W atoms, forming a polymeric chain extending along theb-axis direction. Both the Ag and W atoms are located on a twofold rotation axis and each metal atom is coordinated by four Se atoms in distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal, the 2-methylpyridinium cation and 2-methylpyridine molecule are linkedviaN—H...N hydrogen bonding. Weak C—H...Se interactions link the organic components and polymeric anions into a three-dimensional architecture.
