Synthesis, structure, and thermal decomposition of [H2(4,4′-Bipy)][In(H2O)2(NCS)4]2 and [HUr]2[In(H2O)(NCS)5] · 2H2O

The reaction of indium thiocyanate with bipyridine (4,4-Bipy) and urotropine (Ur) gave [H₂(4,4′-Bipy)][In(H₂O)₂(NCS)₄]₂ (I) and [HUr]₂[In(H₂O)(NCS)₅] · 2H₂O (II), which were identified using elemental analysis, IR spectra, and thermogravimetric analysis. The thermal decomposition of compound I and II ends at 650 and 640°C, respectively, and gives In₂O₃. X-Ray diffraction analysis of compound I showed that complex anions in the crystal form chains through O-H…S hydrogen bonds. The anion chains form a close packing of columns with bipyridine cations located in the voids. Original Russian Text ? S.P. Petrosyants, A.B. Ilyukhin, V.A.

[COH(NH2)2]2[Cu(pic)2(ClO4)2]的合成与晶体结构

The title compound was synthesized by reaction of Cu(ClO₄)₂， picolinic acid and carbamide in C₂H₅OH/CH₃CN solution， and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system， space group Pbca with a=14.0481(8)， b=9.0130(5)， c=18.626(1)?， V=2358.3(2)?³， Z=4， D_x=1.771g·cm^-3， μ=1.235mm^-1 and F(000)=1276. The final R factor is 0.0440 for 1434 observed reflections. The X-ray analysis revealed that the copper(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated by two picolinic ligands in the equatorial plane， while the two oxygen atoms of perchlorate occupy the axial positions of octahedron with lengthened Cu-O distances， resulting in a 4+2 elongated octahedral environment. In the compound， there also exist two protonated carbamide cations for charge balance. CCDC： 195354.

Synthesis,structure characterization and thermal properties of [Zr6(μ3-O)4(μ3-OH)4(OOCCH2Bu)9(μ2-OH)3]2

Oxo/hydoxo zirconium(IV) complex of the general formula [Zr₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄(OOCCH₂^tBu)₉(μ₂-OH)₃]₂ has been isolated, when Zr(OⁱPr)₄ reacted with a 2-fold excess of 3,3-dimethylbutyric acid. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data, collected at 103 and 153 K, showed that the studied compound crystallizes in hexagonal system (P6₃/m (no. 176)). Structure consists of dimers composed of [Zr₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄(OOCCH₂^tBu)₉] sub-units, linked by six μ₂-OH bridges. Infrared spectroscopic studies proved the presence of hydroxo groups in the structure of studied clusters and formation of different types of oxo/hydroxo bridges. The application of variable temperature infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the structure of this complex undergoes the phase transitions at 143–183 and 203–293 K. Comparison of spectral and crystallographic data suggests that these phase transitions might be related to changes in the strength of Zr–O bonds of μ₂-OH bridges linking complex sub-units, and change in symmetry of the crystal lattice (from hexagonal to trigonal). Analysis of thermogravimetric data showed that decomposition of [Zr₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄(OOCCH₂^tBu)₉(μ₂-OH)₃]₂ proceeds with complete conversion to ZrO₂ (monoclinic form) between 603 and 803 K.

Diverse coordination of two ligands in ferromagnetic [Cu(μ-HCO2)2(3-pyOH)]n and [Cu2(μ-HCO2)2(μ-3-pyOH)2(3-pyOH)2(HCO2)2]n

Two novel polynuclear complexes with methanoate anions and 3-hydroxypyridine ligands [Cu(μ-HCO₂)₂(3-pyOH)]_n (1) and [Cu₂(μ-HCO₂)₂(μ-3-pyOH)₂(3-pyOH)₂(HCO₂)₂]_n (2), respectively, were synthesized and characterized. The central copper atom in 1 is surrounded by four methanoates and a 3-pyOH molecule, forming a square-pyramidal CuO₃NO chromophore. All the methanoates are bidentate and serve as bridges between the adjacent copper ions via syn-anti and anti–anti coordination. The basal square coordination axes are formed by O(syn), N(3-pyOH) (1.974(2), 2.016(2) Å) and O(anti), O(anti) (1.945(2), 1.960(2) Å), while the third O(anti) (2.247(2) Å) is on the top of the pyramid. A ferromagnetic transition with an exchange constant 2J/k_B = 9.2 cm⁻¹ is found for 1 below 20 K. This interaction probably takes place through two syn-anti methanoates extended in a chain through the 2D structure. On the other hand, two monoatomic Cu–O–Cu intra-dinuclear asymmetric (1.986(2), 2.415(2) Å) bridges of two methanoates in [Cu₂(HCO₂)₄(3-pyOH)₄] (2) are present. An elongated distorted octahedral coordination sphere around each copper(II) atom is completed by an additional monodentate terminal methanoate (1.975(2) Å), two N-coordinated 3-pyOH (2.005(2), 2.002(2) Å) and the third weakly O-coordinated 3-pyOH (2.732(2) Å). Although a shorter Cu?Cu distance is noticed in 2 than in 1 (4.690(1) Å 1, 3.442(1) Å 2), much weaker ferromagnetism is found in 2.
