Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Three-Dimensional Cyanocadmate Clathrates with Imidazole

The crystal structures of two clathrates with imidazole (=imH), [Cd₃(CN)₆(imH)₂]·C₆H₁₂, I, and [Cd₃(CN)₆(imH)₂]·C₆H₅Cl, II, have been analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Clathrate I crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/n with a=13.416(2), b=14.140(2), c=14.151(1)Å, β=105.08(9)°, V=2592.1(5)&Aringsup3;, Z=4, R ₁=0.0360, wR ₂=0.0850 for 5931 independent reflections; II: monoclinic P2₁/n, a=12.369(2), b=14.313(2), c=14.416(4)Å, β=106.04(2)°, V=2452.7(9)&Aringsup3;, Z=4, R ₁=0.0398, wR ₂=0.1105 for 5642 independent reflections. The three-dimensional host structures of clathrates I and II are isostructural with each other. The host framework is built through cyanide bridges among two kinds of Cd ions, tetrahedral and octahedral, in a ratio of 2 : 1. The tetrahedral Cd(1) centre is linked to three octahedral Cd(3) atoms and one tetrahedral Cd(2) atom; the tetrahedral Cd(2) centre is ligated by one unidentate imidazole ligand and linked to one tetrahedral Cd(1) atom and two octahedral Cd(3) atoms; the octahedral Cd(3) centre is ligated by one unidentate imidazole ligand and linked to three tetrahedral Cd(1) atoms and two tetrahedral Cd(2) atoms. The novel host structure provides two types of channels, a large, elongated, rectangular channel and a small rectangular channel. The larger channel is occupied by imidazole ligands coordinated to tetrahedral Cd(2) and octahedral Cd(3). The smaller channel accommodates the guest molecules cyclohexane and chlorobenzene.

The reaction of anhydrous CuCl₂ with HCl and 2-amino-5-iodopyridine in 1-propanol resulted in two polymorphs of (5-IAP)₂[CuCl₄] [5-IAP = 2-amino-5-iodopyridinium], one as red rods (1) and one as orange prisms (2). The two polymorphs have been characterized by single crystal x-ray diffraction and variable temperature magnetic susceptibility. Crystal data: triclinic, P-1, F(000) = 606, MoK _α (λ = 0.71073 Å): for (1): a = 9.248(6), b = 10.202(7), c = 10.368(7) Å, α = 102.451(9), β = 96.662(8), γ = 96.725(8)°, V = 938.4(11) &Aringsup3;, Z = 2, D_calc = 2.291 Mg/m³, μ = 5.020 mm^?1, R = 0.0392 for [|I|≥2σ(I)].

In each complex the vanadium is a distorted tetragonal bipyramid, which is typical for oxovanadium(IV) complexes. In both complexes, inter- and intra-molecular hydrogen bonds are also discussed. Complex 1 exists as an infinite chain along the b-axis by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. In addition, thermal analysis and quantum chemistry calculations were performed for analyzing the stability of the complexes.

Two uranyl sulfate hydrates, (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)₂(SO₄)₃(H₂O)] · 7H₂O (NDUS) and (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)₂(SO₄)₃(H₂O)] · 4H₂O (NDUS1), and one uranyl selenate‐selenite [C₅H₆N][(UO₂)(SeO₄)(HSeO₃)] (NDUSe), were obtained and their crystal structures solved.

The structural unit of NDUSe is a two‐dimensional uranyl selenate‐selenite sheets with a U/Se ratio of 1/2. In‐situ reaction of the L ‐cystine ligands gives two distinct products for the different acids used here. Where sulfuric acid is used, only H₃O⁺ cations are located in the interlayer space, where they balance the charge of the sheets, whereas where selenic acid is used, interlayer C₅H₆N⁺ cations result from the cyclization of the carboxyl groups of L ‐cystine, balancing the charge of the sheets.

The structural analysis shows that each metal atom in both the mononuclear complex 1 and polynuclear complex 2 is octahedrally coordinated by four sulfur atoms and two chloro ligands or two nitrogen atoms from the thiocyanate groups, respectively. The PTU ligand can serve as either a monodentate ligand or a μ₂-bridging ligand upon coordination to a metal atom.

Bis[tris(trimethylsilyl)cyclopentadienyl]europium, Eu{C₅H₂[Si(CH₃)₃]₃}₂ (1) , has been synthesized by a modified transmetallation route between Tl{C₅H₂[Si(CH₃)₃]₃} and europium powder in toluene. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (No. 15) with a = 20.293(5) Å, b = 20.221(5) Å, c = 9.654(2) Å, β = 106.412(5)°, V = 3800.1(15) ų, Z = 4. The unit cell contains monomeric molecules that adopt a bent metallocene conformation with two partially staggered Cp? ligands. Magnetic susceptibility measurements in the temperature range 2–300 K display ideal Curie paramagnetic behaviour of the 4f⁷ system with Curie constant C = 9.6 × 10^?5 m³ K mol^?1 corresponding to temperature independent μ_eff = 7.8.

Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structure of Novel Mixed Bridged Trinuclear Oxo‐Centered Iron(III), Chromium(III) Complexes Containing Terminal Unsaturated Carboxylato and Acrylic Acid Dimer Anion Ligands

Three new oxo‐centered trinuclear mixed‐bridged carboxylate complexes with terminal unsaturated ligands ([M₂M′(μ₃‐O)(μ‐O₂C₃H₃)₅(μ‐O₄C₆H₇)(O₂C₃H₃) (H₂O)₂]·2H₂O [M = Fe, M′ = Fe ( 1 ); M = Fe, M′ = Cr ( 2 ); M = Cr, M′ = Fe ( 3 )]) have been synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analyses, IR spectra and crystal structure analyses. The compounds crystallize isotypically in the orthorhombic space group type Pbcn with a = 24.622(3) Å, b = 16.304(2) Å, c = 17.491(2) Å, V = 7021.5(15) ų ( 1 ), a = 24.708(5) Å, b = 16.290(2) Å, c = 17.394(2) Å, V = 7001.0(18) ų ( 2 ), a = 24.611(4) Å, b = 16.300(3) Å, c = 17.359(3) Å, V = 6964(2) ų ( 3 ), and Z = 8. The infrared spectra show resolved bands arising from ν_asym(OCO) and ν_sym(OCO) vibrations of monodentate and bridging carboxylate ligands along with those of ν_asym(M₂M′O) vibrations in the complexes.     

Adipato‐Bridged Mixed Ligand catena Complexes: ${_{\infty}^1}${[M(phen)(H2O)]L2/2} with M = NiII,CuII, ZnII; H2L = Adipic Acid

Three adipato bridged mixed ligand catena complexes {[M(phen)(H₂O)]‐(C₆H₈O₄)_2/2} with M = Ni^II ( 1 ), Cu^II ( 2 ), Zn^II ( 3 ) were synthesized. Structure determination based on X‐ray diffraction shows that they crystallize isostructurally in the monoclinic space group C2/c (no. 15) with cell dimensions of: 1 a = 22.451(4)Å, b = 9.041(1)Å, c = 17.440(2)Å, β = 103.41(1)°, U = 3443.4(9)ų, Z = 8; 2 a = 22.479(2)Å, b = 9.067(1)Å, c = 17.494(3)Å, β = 103.67(1)°, U = 3464.6(8)ų, Z = 8; 3 a = 22.635(3)Å, b = 9.052(1)Å, c = 17.571(3)Å, β = 103.24(1)°, U = 3504.5(9)ų, Z = 8. The crystal structure consists of 1D {[M(phen)(H₂O)]‐(C₆H₈O₄)_2/2} zigzag chains, in which the metal atoms are all octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligands and four O atoms of one H₂O molecule and two adipato ligands. The zigzag chains are held together by interchain π‐π stacking interactions and interchain hydrogen bonds.
