Trichlorido(5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine-κ²N,N′)(methanol-κO)indium(III)

Abstract

In the mol­ecule of the title compound, [InCl3(C12H12N2)(CH4O)], the InIII atom is six-coordinated in a distorted octa­hedral configuration by two N atoms from the chelating 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand, one O atom from a methanol molecule and three Cl atoms. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains parallel to [001].

“…Recently, we reported the synthes and crystal structure of [Cd(5,5′-dmbpy)(µ-Br) 2 ] n , (Shirvan & Haydari Dezfuli, 2012) [where 5,5′-dmbpy is 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine]. 5,5′-Dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine is a good bidentate ligand, and numerous complexes with 5,5′-dmbipy have been prepared, such as that of zinc (Khalighi et al, 2008), indium (Kalateh et al, 2008), iron (Amani et al, 2007), platin (Amani et al, 2009), copper (Albada et al, 2004) and mercury (Tadayon Pour et al, 2008;Alizadeh et al, 2010). Here, we report the synthesis and structure of the title compound.…”
