Abstract
The formation from aqueous solution of networks containing piperazinium hydrochlorides with copper(I) chloride is described. Four new X-ray crystal structures are reported: (H2Pip)[Cu2Cl4] (two isomeric phases: 1A and 1B), (H2MePip)[Cu3Cl5] (2), and (H2Me2Pip)[Cu4Cl6] (3) (Pip = piperazine, MePip = N-methylpiperazine, Me2Pip = N,N′-dimethylpiperazine. In 1A (P-1, a = 6.3141(2), b = 6.8248(2), c = 6.9067(2), α = 90.707(2), β = 110.748(2), γ = 110.799(2), V = 256.918(13), Z = 2) corner-sharing Cu2Cl2 rhomboid dimers form infinite chains running parallel to the a-axis. In 1B (Pbcn, a = 9.9442(6), b = 8.0622(5), c = 13.1301(7), V = 1052.67(11), Z = 8) the Cu2Cl2 dimers are linked by μ-Cl into Cu6Cl8 rings which form hexagonally tiled sheets running parallel to the a,b-plane. In 2 (P-1, a = 8.0815(7), b = 9.6584(9), c = 9.7900(8), α = 70.231(4), β = 77.180(4), γ = 70.587(4), V = 673.05(10), Z = 2) alternating Cu3Cl3 and Cu4Cl4 rings are fused to form ribbons that run parallel to the a-axis. Copper-copper interactions are present. In 3 (C2/c, a = 17.4026(6), b = 10.5295(4), c = 11.7501(8), β = 131.5490(10), V = 1611.35(14), Z = 8) relatively long Cu···Cl interactions connect Cu4Cl6 “adamantane” units into chains running parallel to the c-axis. In all cases the piperazinium ions are independent from the chlorocuprate structures, but they do show N–H···Cl interactions.
