bromobis(2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine)copper(II) bromide, [Cu(C,NzH&Br]Br, has been prepared by the reaction of copper(I1) bromide with excess 2-(%aminoethyl)pyridine (AEP) in 95% ethanol, and its crystal and molecular structure has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. The material crystallizes in theomonoclinic space group C2/c with four formula units in a cell OF dimensions a = 8.883(6) 8, b = 11.853(13) A, c = 16.940(14) 8 and p = 67.57(3)'. The observed and calculated densities are 1.87(2) and 1.885 g cm-a, respectively. The structure has been refined by least-squares methods to a final value of the R factor (on F) of 0.044 for 1620 independent data. The complex consists of five-coordinate [ C U ( , ~ E P ) ~ Bcations ~ ] + which are well separated from discrete Br- anions. The copper atoms and both bromine atoms lie on a twofold rotation axis in the cell, and the geometry a t the copper atoms is intermediate between tetragonal pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal, The pyridine nitrogen atoms are trans, the N-Cu-N angle being 178.0(2)', while the N(amine)-Cu-N(amine) and, Br-Cu-N(amine) angles are 149.4(3)" and 105.3(1)", respectively. The Cu-Br bond length of 2.702(2) A is very long, but does not appear to result from intramolecular contactu. The monomeric nature of the complex, which i s in contrast to the structure of Ch(AEP)Brz,is consistent with its magnetic properties.

Introduction The preparations oi complexes of the types Cu(AEP)zXzand Gu(AEP)Xz, where AEP is 2-(2-aminoel hyljpyridine, have been reported by Uhlig and Maaser,' and these workers suggested that the complexes Cu(AEP)XZ are dimeric with five-coordinate geometry a t the copper atoms while those of formulation C U ( A E P ) ~ Xare ~ monomeric and six coordinate. Our recent report of the structure2 of Cu(AEP)Br2, homever, shows that this complex is polymeric, containing both Cu-Br-Cu chains and dimer-type CuBr-Cu-Br linkages, and that the copper atoms are six coordinate. The magnetic properties of the complex of formulation Cu(AEP)J3r2 are consistent with a monomeric structure, since the Curie-Weiss law is obeyed to 2,9' but weak dirneric or polymeric interactions cannot be ruled out on the basis of magnetic susceptibility data alone. The great water solubility of this complex, h o ~ w e r did , not, seem to us to be consistent Qith any polymeric model, but suggested that the complex might be ionjc Such an ionic species could not be ruled out in view of the known, five-coordinate geome t r y of the complex Cu(bipy)JZ (where bipy = 2,2'bipyridine), in which there are [Cu(bipy),I]+ cations and discrete I- ~ I ~ ~ O I I S . ~ In order t o further our studies of the relationship etween strric turd and magnetic proper tie^,^^^ j-l0 and especially t o make a comparison between the complexes CU(AFP)~X.arid Cu(AEP)Xz, we have under-

taken a precise three-dimensional structural investigation of the complex Cu(AEP)2Br2.

Experimental Section The preparations of complexes of formulation Cu(AEP)2X2.HzO, where AEP is 2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine and X is chlorine or bromine, have been reported by Uhlig and nlaaser.I These authors report that the complex Cu(AEP)2Br2.Rz0, for example, is formed by the reaction of CuBrz with excess AEP in aqueous solution, and assumed that the complex i s probably a tetragonally distorted octahedron with trans bromine atoms, analogous to the known structure'l of Iransdinitrotetraamminecopper(I1).

estimated standard deviationa were run. The nonhydrogen atoms were sasigned variable anisotropic thermal parameters and the hydrogen atoms were assigned variable isotropic thermal parameters, and all positional and thermal parameters (including the hydrogen parameters) were refined. The final values of R, and RZwere 0.044and 0.056, respectively. A final difference Fourier map was featureless, with no peak higher than 0.6 e the peak height of a nitrogen atom in this analysis was about 7 e A-a. Examination of the data suggested to us that no correction for secondary extinction was necessary. I n the final cycle of leasesquares refinement, no parameter experienced a shift greater than one-half of ita estimated standard deviation, which was taken 89 evidence that the refinement had converged. The positional and thermal parameters derived from the last cycle of leasesquares refinement, along with their sasociated standard deviations as estimated from the inverse matrix, are presented in Tables I and 11. A table of observed and calculated structure amplitudes is available.zz

The Cu and Br atoms lie on a twofold rotation axis, and atoms designated by a prime are related to the reference atom by the twofold rotation.

copper and both bromine atoms lie on a twofold rotation axis, and the geometry of the cation is shown in Figure 1. The coordination around the copper atoms is intermediate between trigonal bipyramidal and tetragonal pyramidal, the observed bond angles being within two standard deviations of the average of the values for the two idealized forms; thus, for example, the N(2)-Cu-N(2)' angle of 149.4(3)' is approximately the average of the values of 120 and 180" calculated for trigonal bipyramidal and tetragonal pyramidal geometries. The five-coordinate, ionic nature of the complex is analogous to that found' in [ C ~ ( b i p y ) ~ I but ]I, the geometries at the copper atoms in the two structures are very different since in [Cu(bipy),I]+ there are only small deviations from trigonal bipyramidal g e ometry.' The bond distances and angles found in ICu(AEP)*Br]+ are listed in Table 111. The complex is clearly monomeric, which is con& tent with the observation* that its magnetic susceptibility follows the Curie-Weiss law to at least 2.9'K; the closest Cu-Cu approach is 7.408(2) A. The nonbonded bromide ion is 4.034(2) A from the copper in the direction trans t o the bonded bromine atom. The Cu-N(1) bond length of 2.065(3) A is similar to the values reported for other Cu(I1) complexes of pyridine and substituted pyridines. Thus, it is slightly longer than the values of 1.980(6) and 1.985(6) A in dibromobi~(2-methylpyridine)copper(II),~~2.000) A in dichlorobis(4-ethylpyridine)copper(II),z4 2.021(5) A in dibrom0(2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine)copper(II),~ 1.98(1) and 2.02(1) & . in dichlorobis(2-methy1pyridine)copper(II)," and 2.02 A in dichlorobis(pyridine)cop(22) A liating of etructure factors will appear following these p w s in the micro6lm edition of this volume of the journal.

The geometry at the copper(1l) atoms is quite different from Lhat proposed by Uhlig and lBIaaser,l and we hare made some calculations of the intramoiecular contacts which would result if the AEP ligands niaiiitained their observed geumptrj and position but the nom bonded Br(2) ion were within bonding distance of the nzetal. In these models as in the prewous calculations inudving Br(l’r (vide s u p ~ a the ) brorishe atom 71 as constrained to lie on the tclofold axis. With a normal bonded Cu-Br separation o f 3.41 there n o d d be 1 3 ~ .. eN(’2) coiitaci,s a9 short a 6 2.709 and when the Cu-Br distance 18 increased to %.FJ~ A. lhere are still Br. ’N(2) jnteractions of 2.7&6 A; ihis contact is increafied to only 2.919 .k when the Cu-IDr(2) bond length is set equal to the very long @u-Br(l) value of 2.702 A. ATP of these Br. ‘ N contacts mfouPcB muse severe strain in the molecule and are significantly shorter than any Br. . .E\J ~ . , o ~ > ~~hiclb. t ~ l s c o d d LW i ’ o ~ in ~ ~t hde literalure.
