Reduction of (Ar, Ar-ethylenebis (salicylideniminato)) cobalt (II), Co (salen), with lithium and sodium metals in tetrahydrofuran, THF, affords the bimetallic systems, which are active in carbon dioxide fixation,[(Co (salen)) NaTHF] and [(Co (sal-en)) Li (THF) 15]. The structures of these complexes have been solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Both of them contain a diamagnetic cobalt (I) in a slightly distorted square-planar coordination geometrydue to a salen ligand which coordinates the alkali cation through the oxygen atoms.[(Co (salen)) NaTHF] crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2 {2 {1 with lattice parameters a- 7.416 (2) Á, b= 21.848 (9) Á, c= 11.639 (5) Á, and Z= 4. The structure has been solved by using 1579 observedreflections and refined to R= 0.030. The crystal structure consists of infinite chains, whose monomeric unit is [(Co (salen)) 2Na2 (THF) 2]. They can be described by distorted octahedra around Na+ sharing the opposite faces. Both THF and Co (salen) act, through the oxygen atoms, as bridging ligands between two adjacent sodium cations.[(Co (salen)) Li (THF) 15] is triclinic, space group Pi, with lattice parameters a= 16.892 (3) Á, b= 14.310 (3) Á, c= 10.899 (3) Á, a= 94.6 (2), ß= 99.5 (2),= 122.3 (2), and Z= 2. The structure has been solvedby direct methods and refined by least-squares methods to R= 0.089, for 2680 reflections. In the structure of [(Co (sal-en)) Li (THF) 15] there are two different molecular complexes,[(Co (salen)) Li (THF) 2] and [(Co (salen)) 2Li2 (THF) 2], in a 2: 1 ratio. In bothcomplexes, L:+ is in a distorted tetrahedral coordination. In the first complex, the four oxygens for the lithium coordination are provided by Co (salen), acting as a bidentate chelating ligand, and two THF molecules. In the centrosymmetric tetranuclear complex [(Co (salen)) 2Li2 (THF) 2] one of the THF oxygens of [(Co (salen)) Li (THF) 2j is replaced by a Co (salen) oxygen atom which bridges two lithium cations.
