Selective complexation towards 2-allyl- isomer results in a formation of 2-apyt complexes. Copper(I) ion in both 1 and 2 complexes coordinates the allylic C=C bond, one pyridyl and one tetrazole N atoms. In both structures Cu+ center adopts distorted tetrahedral surrounding which additionally includes oxygen of NO3- in 1 and H2O moiety in 2. Structure 1 is built from [Cu(2-apyt)NO3]2 dimeric fragments. Contrary, participation of H2O in the metal coordination in 2 leads to the infinite {[Cu(2-apyt)(H2O)]+}n chain construction. To analyze interactions between the particles in 1 and 2 Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed. Keywords: Copper(I); tetrazole; n-complex; Hirshfeld surface analysis; crystal structure 1. Introduction Tetrazoles are well known heterocyclic compounds that have found wide application in pharmaceutical chemistry (showing antibacterial, anticancer, anticonvulsant, anti-tuberculosis activity etc.), in the agricultural sector (pesticides, plant growth regulators), as well as corrosion inhibitors, luminophores and the effective precursors for transition metal complex preparation.1-5 Different tetrazole derivatives serve as suitable ligands for a design and self-organization of molecules through the selective attachment to metal ions by one, two, three or four nitrogen atoms of tetrazole ring and other donor atoms of substituents. An appearance of olefine C=C bond in a skeleton of the above substituents may serve as actual key for the selected coordination of transition metal ions due to metal-olefin n-bonding.6 Despite the huge advances in tetrazole chemistry, the metal-olefine n-coordination in the presence of tetrazo-le moiety is scarcely studied (Cambridge Crystallograp-hic Database).7 In recent years a considerable attention have been paid for investigation of Cu(I) n-complexes with allyl derivatives of organic heterocyclic compounds since the combination of allylic radical and heterocyclic cores (both of which according to HSAB theory act as "soft bases") efficiently contributes to the isolation of the compounds with extremely rare occurred inorganic fragments.8 Using special ac-electrochemical technique we have recently succeeded to obtain in a crystalline form few copper(I) n-complexes with 5-allylsulfanyl-1-aryl-substituted tetrazo-les in which tetrazole moiety revels a strong tendency to the dimeric [Cu2(L)2]2+ tectones formation, regardless of aryl-substituent's and anion type or somewhat different Slyvka et al.: Two Related Copper(I) n-Complexes Based 400 Acta Chim. Slov. 2016, 63, 399-405 reaction condition.910 In contrast, n-coordination of N-allyltetrazoles regarding transition metal ions was studied only in the case of four CuCl and CuBr compounds, obtained under solvothermal conditions.1114 To fill the gap mentioned above we present herein synthesis and structural characterization of two new [Cu(2-apyt)NO3] (1) and [Cu(2- apyt)(H2O)](BF4) (2) n-compounds with 2-allyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-2H-tetrazole (2-apyt), emphasizing the iso-mer-selective complexation of Cu+ by 2-allyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-2H-tetrazole under ac-electrochemical technique. 2. Experimental 2. 1. Materials and Instrumentation Unless otherwise mentioned, all chemicals were obtained from commercial sources and used without further purification. 1H NMR spectrum of the 1-apyt and 2-apyt mixture was recorded on a Bruker 500 instrument (500 MHz for 1H) with deuterated CDCl3 solvent as an internal reference. Diffraction data for 1 and 2 crystals were collected on a Rigaku AFC7 diffractometer equipped with a Mercury CCD area detector, graphite monochromatized MoKa radiation. Hirshfeld surface of the fragment in 1 complex and fingerprint plots were produced by Crystal-Explorer software.15,16 2. 2. Preparation of N-allyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-2#- tetrazole (apyt) 5-(2-Pyridyl)-1H-tetrazole (Hpyt) was synthesized from 2-cyanopyridine and sodium azide in accordance with the reported method.17 The reaction of 5-(2-pyridyl)-1H-te-trazole with 3-bromoprop-1-ene in the presence of NaOH in ethanol solution yields corresponding mixture of 1-allyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-1#-tetrazole (1-apyt) and 2-allyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-2H-tetrazole (2-apyt) in approximately 2:3 molar ratio. Total yield ~93%.

Synthesis of Copper(I) n-complexes Crystals of the n-complexes were obtained under conditions of the alternating-current electrochemical synthesis,18 starting from the alcohol solution of the 1-apyt/2-apyt mixture and the corresponding copper(II) salt.

The prepared suspension was placed into a 5 mL test-tube and then copper-wire electrodes in cork were inserted. By the application of alternating-current tension (frequency 50 Hz) of 0.48 V for 15 days a very small amount of colorless crystals of 1 appeared on copper electrodes. non-hydrogen atoms were refined using an anisotropic model; the only exception is Cu2B (with s.o.f. 10%) atomic displacement in 1 that was refined in the isotropic mode. Hydrogen atoms were placed in ideal positions and refined as riding atoms with relative isotropic displacement parameters. The crystal data parameters, data collection and the refinement details are summarized in Table 1. 3. Results and Discussion 2. 2. 2 Preparation of [Cu(2-apyt)(H2O)](BF4) (2) To 4.5 mL of ethanol/benzene solution (3.2 mL of C2H5OH and 1.3 mL of C6H6) of Cu(BF4)26H2O (0.90 mmol, 0.311 g) 0.170 g (0.91 mmol) of 1-apyt/2-apyt mixture was added dropwise with stirring. The prepared light-blue suspension immediately was prone to the alternating-current reduction (frequency 50 Hz) of 0.43 V. After 16 days a few suitable for single X-ray studying crystals of 2 were found on the electrode surface. 2. 4. Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction Studies The collected diffraction data for 1 and 2 were processed with the Rigaku CrystalClear software suite program package.19 The structures were solved by direct methods using SHELXS-97 and refined by least squares method on F2 by SHELXL-2014 with the following graphical user interfaces of OLEX2.20,21 Metal atom in 1 is split into two positions (s.o.f. 90% and 10%). Fluorine atoms of BF4- anion in 2 were refined over two disordered positions (s.o.f. 59% and 41%) applying the same geometry restraints for disordered units. Atomic displacements for The structures 1 and 2 demonstrate the first examples of N-allyltetrazoles allyl derivatives n-complexes with ionic copper(I) salts. In both compounds 2-apyt molecule acts as chelate-bridging n, o-ligand being attached to the metal center by C=C bond of allyl group, pyridyl N atom and the most nucleophilic N atom of tetrazole ring (Figs. 1 and 2). Copper(I) atom adopts distorted tetrahe-dral (t4 = 0.71 for 1, t4 = 0.67 for 2) surrounding (t4 -four-coordinate geometry index)22, including two mentioned N atoms of the same 2-apyt moiety, C=C bond of the neighbouring organic molecule and one O atom of the anion in 1 and water molecule in 2 (Table 2). Taking into account that the sum of van der Waals radii of Cu and O according to the recent results reported by Batsanov23 and Alvarez24 is much higher than Cu1A-O3 distance value of 2.918(5) A, copper(I) surrounding in 1 may be completed to five including one more O atom of the same nitrate anion. It is interesting to note that [Cu(2-apyt)NO3] (1) is to-pologically reminiscent {[Cu(1-abtr)NO3]}n n-complex with 1-allylbenzotriazole (1-abtr),25 in which 1-abtr molecule connects two Cu+ ions through p2-C3N4- bridge into an infinite {[Cu(1-abtr)]+}n chain, while the last ones are coupled by two bridging NO3- anions in the geminated chain. An additional coordination of pyridyl N atom to Figure 1.

Due to a coordination to Cu(I), pyridyl ring of the 2-apyt in the structure of complex 1 is tilted by nearly 5° with respect to tetrazole ring. Both the above angle value and the distance of 1.437(5) A for C5-C6 between carbon atoms of tetrazole and pyridyl rings indicate the noticeable contribution of n-component of the bond. Marked hardness of fluorine in BF4- anion is not conducive for its coordination to such "soft acid" as Cu+, therefore in 2 water O atom completes metal surrounding. In general, Cu+-F(BF4) contacts in the structures of substituted olefins n-complexes occur rarely and, in particu- Table 2. Selected bond distances and angles for complex 1 and 2.

As a result complex 2 is constructed in such a way, that BF4- becomes a specific H-bonded linker between two neighbouring {[Cu(2-apyt)(H2O)]+}n chains, binding them together into double chain. Pyridyl ring of the 2-apyt in complex 2 is tilted by 6° with respect to tetrazole ring. The presence of N-allylic group in 2-apyt with more "softer" C=C bond brings a considerable difficulties to neighbouring N atoms (possessing border line basicity) to be bound with "soft" Cu+ center. Instead, pyridyl N atom of 2-apyt in 1 and 2 becomes more favourable to compete with tetrazole moiety in metal coordination for two reasons: due to greater nucleophility of pyridyl N atom and due to a formation of a five-membered {Cu-N2C2} ring. It is well known, that chelate effect strongly increases complex stability. In comparison to 1 and 2, there are a number of Cu(II) complexes with 2-substitu-ted 5-(2-pyridyl)tetrazoles in which organic ligand, being attached to the metal center in the same way, produces similar five-membered rings.29,30 Most likely an appearance of {CuN2C2} ring is the main reason of selective com-plexation of 2-apyt from starting mixture of 1-apyt and 2-apyt under electrochemical condition to form thermody-namically stable 1 and 2 in crystalline form. Otherwise, the presence of three nitrogen atoms with decreasing nuc-leophilicity in the order N4>N3>N2 and possessing higher spatial accessibility in 1-apyt should promote a considerable increase of tetrazole moiety participation in metal coordination, thus significantly reducing the contribution of chelating {CuN2C2} function.

Slov. 2016, 63, 399-405 plex (prepared also from a mixture of 1-apyt and 2-apyt), in which 1-apyt molecule is attached to one silver(I) atom by means of C=C bond and pyridyl N atom, forming less stable eight-member {CuN2C5} ring, while two tetrazole N atoms are ^2-bonded to crystallographically another Ag(I) atoms.33 To analyze interactions between the particles the Hirshfeld surface was built for [Cu(2-apyt)NO3]2 dimer in 1. The most prominent C-H—O interactions between the dimers can be seen in the Hirshfeld surface plot as the red areas (Fig. 4). Fingerprint plots were produced to show the intermolecular surface bond distances with the regions highlighted for (C)H-O(N) and residual H-H interactions. The C—C contacts belong to n - n-interactions between heterocyclic nuclei and contribute only 3.6% to the surface area. The contribution to the surface area for H-H contacts is 21.8%. 4. Conclusion The synthesis and crystal structures of the two new n-compounds [Cu(2-apyt)NO3] (1) and [Cu(2-apyt)(H2O)](BF4) (2) with 2-allyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-2#-tetra-zole (2-apyt) have been performed. Due to significant li-gand chelating effect the isomer-selective complexation of 2-apyt with Cu+ under ac-electrochemical condition was found. The ligand 2-apyt acts in 1 and 2 as a chelate-bridging n,o-ligand, being attached to the Cu(I) by means of allylic C=C bond, by pyridyl N atom and one tetrazole N atom. In complex 1 a centrosymmetric [Cu(2-apyt)NO3]2 dimer is formed due to a bridging organic li-gand. Participation of H2O in metal coordination in 2 leads to linking of organometallic fragment into infinite {[Cu(2-apyt)(H2O)]+}n chain, interconnected by O-H-F hydrogen bonds among water and tetrafluoroborate anions into double chain. To depict interactions between the particles in 1 Hirshfeld surface analysis has been performed. 5.

Selektivno kompleksiranje omogoča tvorbo kompleksov, ki vsebujejo 2-apyt izomer. V obeh spojinah je bakrov kation koordiniran z C=C vezjo alilne skupine, dušikovem atomom piridilnega obroča ter dušikovem atomom tetrazolnega obroča. V obeh spojinah ima Cu+ center te-traedrično koordinacijsko sfero, ki vsebuje tudi kisikov atom NO3- aniona v 1 ter koordinirano molekulo vode v 2. Struktura 1 vsebuje [Cu(2-apyt)NO3]2 dimer. Prisotnost molekule vode v koordinacijskem okolju bakrovega iona v 2 omogoča tvorbo neskončnih {[Cu(2-apyt)(H2O)]2+}n verig. Interakcije med gradniki so bile proučevane s pomočjo Hirshfeldove analize. Slyvka et al.: Two Related Copper(l) n-Complexes Based
