New 1D and 2D metal oxygen connectivities in Cu(II) succinato and glutarato coordination polymers: [Cu3(H2O)2(OH)2(C4H4O4)2] · 4H2O, [Cu4(H2O)2(OH)4(C4H4O4)2] · 5H2O and [Cu5(OH)6(C5H6O4)2] · 4H2O

Two Cu(II) hydroxo succinates [Cu₃(H₂O)₂(OH)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (1) and [Cu₄(H₂O)₂(OH)₄(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?5H₂O (2) and one Cu(II) hydroxo glutarate [Cu₅(OH)₆(C₅H₆O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (3) have been prepared and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. They feature 1D and 2D copper oxygen connectivity of elongated {CuO₆} octahedra in “4?+?1?+?1” and “4?+?2” coordination geometries. Within 1, linear trimers of three edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra are connected into copper oxygen chains, which are bridged by the anti conformational succinate anions to generate 2D layers with mono terminally coordinating gauche succinate anions on both sides. The layers are assembled into a 3D framework by interlayer hydrogen bonds with lattice H₂O molecules distributed in channels. Different from 1, the principal building units in 2 are linear tetramers of four edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra. The tetramers are condensed into copper oxygen chains and the succinate anions interlink them into a 3D framework with triangular channels filled by lattice H₂O molecules. The {CuO₆} octahedra in 3 are edge-shared to form unprecedented 2D inorganic layers with mono terminally coordinating glutarate anions on both sides. Interlayer hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for supramolecular assembly of the layers into a 3D framework with lattice H₂O molecules in the channels. The inorganic layers in 3 can be described as hexagonal close packing of oxygen atoms with the Cu atoms in the octahedral cavities. The title compounds were further characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and thermal analyses.     

Synthesis and physical properties of K4[Fe(C5O5)2(H2O)2](HC5O5)2·4H2O (C5O5(2-) = croconate): a rare example of ferromagnetic coupling via H-bonds

The reaction of the croconate dianion (C(5)O(5))(2-) with a Fe(III) salt has led, unexpectedly, to the formation of the first example of a discrete Fe(II)-croconate complex without additional coligands, K(4)[Fe(C(5)O(5))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](HC(5)O(5))(2)·4H(2)O (1). 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2(1)/c space group and presents discrete octahedral Fe(II) complexes coordinated by two chelating C(5)O(5)(2-) anions in the equatorial plane and two trans axial water molecules. The structure can be viewed as formed by alternating layers of trans-diaquabis(croconato)ferrate(II) complexes and layers containing the monoprotonated croconate anions, HC(5)O(5)(-), and noncoordinated water molecules. Both kinds of layers are directly connected through a hydrogen bond between an oxygen atom of the coordinated dianion and the protonated oxygen atom of the noncoordinated croconate monoanion. A H-bond network is also formed between the coordinated water molecule and one oxygen atom of the coordinated croconate. This H-bond can be classified as strong-moderate being the O···O bond distance (2.771(2) ?) typical of moderate H-bonds and the O-H···O bond angle (174(3)°) typical of strong ones. This H-bond interaction leads to a quadratic regular layer where each [Fe(C(5)O(5))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](2-) anion is connected to its four neighbors in the plane through four equivalent H-bonds. From the magnetic point of view, these connections lead to an S = 2 quadratic layer. The magnetic properties of 1 have been reproduced with a 2D square lattice model for S = 2 ions with g = 2.027(2) and J = 4.59(3) cm(-1). This model reproduces quite satisfactorily its magnetic properties but only above the maximum. A better fit is obtained by considering an additional antiferromagnetic weak interlayer coupling constant (j) through a molecular field approximation with g = 2.071(7), J = 2.94(7) cm(-1), and j = -0.045(2) cm(-1) (the Hamiltonian is written as H = -JS(i)S(j)). Although this second model might still be improved since there is also an extra contribution due to the presence of ZFS in the Fe(II) ions, it confirms the presence of weak ferromagnetic Fe-Fe interactions through H-bonds in compound 1 which represents one of the rare examples of ferromagnetic coupling via H-bonds.     

Crystal structure and the magnetic properties of tris(2-chloromethyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-5-olato-κ2O5,O4)iron(III)

The tris(2-chloromethyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-5-olato-κ²O⁵,O⁴)iron(III), [Fe(kaCl)₃], has been synthesized and characterized by the crystal structure analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, Mössbauer, and EPR spectroscopic methods. The X-ray single crystal analysis of [Fe(kaCl)₃] revealed a mer isomer. The magnetic susceptibility measurements indicated the paramagnetic character in the temperature range of 2 K–298 K. The EPR and Mössbauer spectroscopy confirmed the presence of an iron center in a high-spin state. Additionally, the temperature-independent Mössbauer magnetic hyperfine interactions were observed down to 77 K. These interactions may result from spin–spin relaxation due to the interionic Fe³⁺ distances of 7.386 Å.

This compound contains infinite borate layers constructed from [B₄O₅(OH)₄]^2? units via hydrogen bonds. The adjacent polyborate anion layers are further linked together with the octahedral [Co(NH₃)₅(H₂O)]³⁺ groups through hydrogen bonds to form 3D framework. The groups and guest water molecules are deposited in the empty space of this framework and interact with the layers by extensive hydrogen bonds. Infrared and Raman spectra (4000–400 cm^?1) of NH₄[Co(NH₃)₅(H₂O)][B₄O₅(OH)₄]₂·6H₂O were recorded at room temperature and analyzed. Fundamental vibrational modes were identified and band assignments were made. The middle band observed at 575 cm^?1 in Raman spectrum is the pulse vibration of [B₄O₅(OH)₄]^2?.

The thermal dehydration and decomposition of Ba[Cu(C2O4)2(H2O)]·5H2O

The thermal behaviour of Ba[Cu(C₂O₄)₂(H₂O)]·5H₂O in N₂ and in O₂ has been examined using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The dehydration starts at relatively low temperatures (about 80°C), but continues until the onset of the decomposition (about 280°C). The decomposition takes place in two major stages (onsets 280 and 390°C). The mass of the intermediate after the first stage corresponded to the formation of barium oxalate and copper metal and, after the second stage, to the formation of barium carbonate and copper metal. The enthalpy for the dehydration was found to be 311±30 kJ mol^–1 (or 52±5 kJ (mol of H₂O)^–1). The overall enthalpy change for the decomposition of Ba[Cu(C₂O₄)₂] in N₂ was estimated from the combined area of the peaks of the DSC curve as –347 kJ mol^–1. The kinetics of the thermal dehydration and decomposition were studied using isothermal TG. The dehydration was strongly deceleratory and the -time curves could be described by the three dimensional diffusion (D3) model. The values of the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor for the dehydration were 125±4 kJ mol^–1 and (1.38±0.08)×10¹⁵ min^–1, respectively. The decomposition was complex, consisting of at least two concurrent processes. The decomposition was analysed in terms of two overlapping deceleratory processes. One process was fast and could be described by the contracting-geometry model withn=5. The other process was slow and could also be described by the contracting-geometry model, but withn=2.The values ofE _a andA were 206±23 kJ mol^–1 and (2.2±0.5)×10¹⁹ min^–1, respectively, for the fast process, and 259±37 kJ mol^–1 and (6.3±1.8)×10²³ min^–1, respectively, for the slow process.Dedicated to Prof. Menachem Steinberg on the occasion of his 65th birthday     

Vibrational spectroscopic characterization of the phosphate mineral hureaulite – (Mn,Fe)5(PO4)2(HPO4)2·4(H2O)

This research was done on hureaulite samples from the Cigana claim, a lithium bearing pegmatite with triphylite and spodumene. The mine is located in Conselheiro Pena, east of Minas Gerais. Chemical analysis was carried out by Electron Microprobe analysis and indicated a manganese rich phase with partial substitution of iron. The calculated chemical formula of the studied sample is: (Mn_3.23, Fe_1.04, Ca_0.19, Mg_0.13)(PO₄)_2.7(HPO₄)_2.6(OH)_4.78. The Raman spectrum of hureaulite is dominated by an intense sharp band at 959 cm⁻¹ assigned to PO stretching vibrations of HPO₄²⁻ units. The Raman band at 989 cm⁻¹ is assigned to the PO₄³⁻ stretching vibration. Raman bands at 1007, 1024, 1047, and 1083 cm⁻¹ are attributed to both the HOP and PO antisymmetric stretching vibrations of HPO₄²⁻ and PO₄³⁻ units. A set of Raman bands at 531, 543, 564 and 582 cm⁻¹ are assigned to the ν₄ bending modes of the HPO₄²⁻ and PO₄³⁻ units. Raman bands observed at 414, and 455 cm⁻¹ are attributed to the ν₂ HPO₄²⁻ and PO₄³⁻ units. The intense A series of Raman and infrared bands in the OH stretching region are assigned to water stretching vibrations. Based upon the position of these bands hydrogen bond distances are calculated. Hydrogen bond distances are short indicating very strong hydrogen bonding in the hureaulite structure. A combination of Raman and infrared spectroscopy enabled aspects of the molecular structure of the mineral hureaulite to be understood.     

CLUSTER CONVERSION OF [MoW2O2(O2CEt)9]− TO [MoW2O4(O2 CEt)8]4- BY CHROMIUM HEXACARBONYL CRYSTAL STRUCTURES OF Na[MoW2O2(O2CMe)9] · H2O, [MoW2O2(O2CEt)6(H2O)3] ZnCl4 · 2H2O AND Na2Cr2[MoW2O4(O2CEt)8]2

Abstract

Reactions of Mo(CO)₆ with Na₂WO₄ · 2H₂O in refluxing carboxylic anhydride produce the triangular bioxo-capped mixed-metal carboxylate clusters Na[MoW₂O₂(O₂CR)₉] (R = Me, 1; Et, 2), the propionate being hydrolyzed in 2M HCl containing ZnCl₂ to form [MoW₂O₂(O₂CEt)⁶(H₂O)₃]ZnCl₄·2H₂O (3). Cluster 2 is converted to the incomplete cuboidal tetraanion [MoW₂O₄(O₂CEt)₈]^4- upon reacting with Cr(CO)₆ in propionic anhydride at 120°, the latter species being trapped by Cr^3± and Na^± ions in the reaction mixture to afford the octanuclear heterometallic chain-like cluster Na₂Cr₂ [MoW₂O₄(O₂CEt)₈]₂ (4). Clusters 1, 3 and 4 have been characterized by X-ray crystallography with the following crystal data, for 1: monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a = 16.666(8), b = 11.096(3), c = 16.541(7) Å, β = 94.60(4)°, V = 3048.9 ų, Z = 4, R, Rw = 0.070, 0.079; for 3, monoclinic, space group Cm, a = 10.259(3), b = 15.756(3), c = 10.870(3) Å, β = 96.18(3)°, V = 1746.8 ų, Z = 2, R, Rw = 0.028, 0.034; for 4, triclinic, space group P-1, a = 13.013(5), b = 14.005(4), c = 12.357(4) Å, α = 109.71(2), β = 117.77(3), γ = 90.41(3)°, V = 1838.9 ų, Z = 1, R, Rw = 0.037, 0.042.     

Synthesis, Characterization and Crystal Structure of [Co2Mo2(μ4-C2HPh)(μ-CO)4(CO)4(η5-C5H4C(O)Me)2]

The reaction of μ-alkyne-bridged dimolybdenum compound [Mo2(μ-C2HPh)(CO)4(η5-C5H4C(O)Me)2] 1 with Co2(CO)8 in refluxing toluene gave a new butterfly compound [Co2Mo2(μ4-C2HPh)(μ-CO)4(CO)4(η5-C5H4C(O)Me)2] 2 which was fully characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR and X-ray single crystal diffraction techniques. 2 crystallized in monoclinic system, C30H20Co2Mo2O10, Mr=850.23, space group P21/a(#14), a=14.165(5), b=12.498(2), c=16.204(2)(A), β = 96.50(2)°, V = 2850(1)(A)3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.981 g cm-3, F(000)=1672, μ(MoKα)=20.41 cm-1, final R=0.030, Rw=0.039 for 4831 observable reflections with I>2σ(I). The structure contains a Co2Mo2 butterfly core, and each Mo-Co bond is spanned by an asymmetric semi-bridging carbonyl ligand.     

Unique seven-node rare-earth octacyanomolybdate(IV) three-dimensional molecular frameworks: {[Er(H2O)5(Er(H2O)4)3][Mo(CN)8]3·11H2O}n and {[Eu(H2O)5(Eu(H2O)4)3][Mo(CN)8]3·11H2O}n

The crystal structure analyses of {[Er(H₂O)₅(Er(H₂O)₄)₃][Mo(CN)₈]₃·11H₂O}_n (1) and {[Eu(H₂O)₅(Eu(H₂O)₄)₃][Mo(CN)₈]₃·11H₂O}_n (2), show that they are not only new neutral three-dimensional rare-earth octacyanomolybdate(IV) molecular frameworks, but that they also belong to an unknown structure type having seven different nodes. To the best of our knowledge this is different to any other known molybdenum(IV) octacyanide complexes published to date. Both compounds crystallize in the triclinic system, space group P-1, and are isostructural and isotypic. The coordination polyhedra of the molybdenum atoms in the three different [Mo(CN)₈]⁴⁻ anions are trigonal prisms, with two additional atoms. A new bridging mode for octacyanometallates is also observed with five of the eight cyanide groups involved in bridging either three or four rare-earth atoms, while the three remaining cyanide groups are terminal and are involved in hydrogen bonding. The four rare-earth atoms in 1 and 2 have different coordination polyhedra in the form of trigonal prisms with two additional atoms. The three-dimensional structures are made up of infinite two-dimensional slabs linked by one of the rare-earth metal atoms. In both compounds, apart from the 17 coordinated water molecules, there are 11 lattice water molecules of crystallization present in the cavities of the three-dimensional frameworks. The 28 water molecules and the terminal CN⁻ groups are involved in an extensive O–H⋯O and O–H⋯N hydrogen bonding network.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of (C6N3H18)2Ti4O4(C2O4)7·4H2O

The title compound (C6N3H18)2Ti4O4(C2O4)7(4H2O 1 (C13H22N3O18Ti2, Mr = 604.14) was synthesized by the reaction of Ti(SO4)2, H2C2O4(2H2O and N-(2-ammonioethyl)- piperazinium (AEPP) in aqueous solution.

X-ray crystal-structure analysis suggests that compound 1 consists of [Ti4O4(C2O4)7]6－ anion and two protonated N-(2-ammonioethyl)piperazinium cations. The anions are linked into an infinite chain through Ti4O4(C2O4)8 by sharing the oxalates as bridging ligands.
