Zinc(II) complexes of 4-aminoantipyrine (AAP), [Zn(AAP)₂X₂] (X = Cl^–, I^–) and [Zn(AAP)(CN)₂] · 2H₂O were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR (¹H & ¹³C) spectroscopy. The crystal structure of [Zn(AAP)₂Cl₂] (1) was determined by X-ray crystallography. The structural analysis of 1 shows that the complex exists as a monomeric nonionic molecule with zinc atom bound to two AAP ligands and two chloride ions adopting a distorted tetrahedral geometry. In [Zn(AAP)₂(CN)₂] · 2H₂O, the appearance of a band at 2162 cm^–1 in IR and resonances around 142 ppm in the ¹³C NMR spectra indicated the binding of cyanide to zinc(II).

[Co(NH₃)₆][AuX₄]X₂ binary complex salts, where X = Cl^? (I) and Br^? (II), have been obtained and defined by element, X-ray diffraction, and thermal analyses and by IR, Raman, and electron spectroscopy. The compounds are isostructural. Their structural units are the [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ complex cations, the [AuX₄]^? complex anions, and the X^? anions. The plane square environment of the gold atom is completed to an elongated bipyramid by two halide ions lying at distances Au...Cl 3.245 Å for I and Au...Br 3.362 Å for II. The thermolysis products of I and II are pure gold and cobalt metal powders when thermolysis is performed under hydrogen and a mixture of metallic gold with cobalt halide in a reaction under an inert atmosphere.

New Symmetric bidentate Schiff-base ligands N,N′-bis(2,3,4-trimethoxybenzylidene)-1,2-di-aminoethane, (234-MeO-Ba)₂En, and its corresponding zinc(II) and mercury(II) complexes, Zn((234-MeO-Ba)₂En)I₂ (I), Hg((234-MeO-Ba)₂En)Cl₂ (II) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses (CHN), FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The thermal behaviors of complexes were study using thermogravimetry in order to evaluate their thermal stability and thermal decomposition pathways. The crystal structure of I was determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The coordination polyhedron about the zinc(II) center in complex I is best described as a distorted tetrahedron.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Copper(II) and Zinc(II) Tricyanomethanide (tcm) Complexes with Di(2‐pyridyl)amine (dpyam) as Co‐ligands: [Cu(dpyam)(tcm)2], [Cu(dpyam)(tcm)(OAc)] and Zn(dpyam)2(tcm)2

Three new transition metal tricyanomethanide complexes [Cu(dpyam)(tcm)₂] ( 1 ), [Cu(dpyam)(tcm)(OAc)] ( 2 ) and Zn(dpyam)₂(tcm)₂ ( 3 ) were synthesized and characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. In 1 each copper(II) atom is coordinated to three tcm anions and one dpyam molecule to form a square pyramide geometry. In 2 the coordination geometry around the central metal is also square pyramidal, and each copper atom is surrounded by two tcm anions, one dpyam ligand and one OAc. Both 1 and 2 display a µ_1,5‐tcm bridged infinite chain structure. In 3 each zinc(II) atom is coordinated by two tcm anions and two dpyam molecules to form a distorted octahedral geometry. Different from the former two complexes, 3 shows a mononuclear structure. Magnetic susceptibility measurement in the range 2–300 K indicates that there are weak antiferromagnetic couplings between adjacent copper(II) ions in 1 (J=?0.03 cm^?1) and 2 (J=?0.11 cm^?1) respectively.

Hydrothermal Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Two New Heteropolyoxovanadoborates Containing {(VO)<Subscript>12</Subscript>O<Subscript>6</Subscript>[B<Subscript>3</Subscript>O<Subscript>6</Subscript>(OH)]<Subscript>6</Subscript>(H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O)} Cluster

Two new heteropolyoxovanadoborates (H₂dap)₂H₆{(VO)₁₂O₆[B₃O₆(OH)]₆(H₂O)}·13H₂O (1, dap = 1,2-diaminopropane) and {[Zn(dien)]₂[Zn(dien)(H₂O)]₄(VO)₁₂O₆[B₃O₆(OH)]₆(H₂O)}₂·15H₂O (2, dien = diethylenetriamine) have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Both 1 and 2 contain {(VO)₁₂O₆[B₃O₆(OH)]₆(H₂O)} cluster (denoted on V₁₂B₁₈), which is constructed by a puckered B₁₈O₃₆(OH)₆ ring sandwiched between two triangles of six alternating cis and trans edge-sharing vanadium atoms, and a central water molecule. 1 consists of discrete [V₁₂B₁₈]¹⁰⁻ cluster anions with H₂dap²⁺ as counterions, while 2 consists of discrete neutral {[Zn(dien)]₂[Zn(dien)(H₂O)]₄[V₁₂B₁₈]} clusters, which are built from two types of zinc(II) complex fragments connecting with V₁₂B₁₈ cluster through two Zn-(μ ₃-O)-B bonds. Interestingly, 2 is the only example of the V₁₂B₁₈ cluster decorated by two types of zinc(II) complex fragments.     

Crystal structures of copper(II) complexes with methyliminodiacetate ions and 1,10-phenanthroline or imidazole [Cu(Phen)H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O][Cu(Mida)<Subscript>2</Subscript>]·2H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O and [Cu(Mida)Im]

Methyliminodiacetic acid (H₂Mida) and imidazole react with copper(II) to form crystals of the square pyramidal complex [Cu(Mida)Im]. One N and two O atoms of the Mida ligand (Cu-N 2.010(1) Å, Cu-O 1.955(1) Å, and 1.978(1) Å) and the imidazole N atom (1.950(1) Å) lie at the base of the pyramid. The carboxyl O atom of the neighboring complex lies at the apical position (2.411(1) Å); in this way the individual complexes are linked into infinite zigzag chains. Substitution of imidazole by 1,10-phenanthroline gave [Cu₂(Mida)₂(Phen)H₂O]·2H₂O crystals with two nonequivalent centrosymmetric octahedral anions [Cu(Mida)₂]^2? of face type (Cu-N 2.023 Å and 2.028(2) Å, Cu-O_ax 2.579 Å and 2.530(2) Å, Cu-O_bas 1.952 Å and 1.936(2) Å). The anions serve as bridges in chains between the [Cu(Phen)H₂O]²⁺ cation fragments to which they are bonded by their axial carboxyl groups. The Cu atom of the cation has a [4+1] environment (with the H₂O molecule lying on the axis of the pyramid, and with two N atoms of the ligand and two O atoms of the anions lying at the base).     

A New Layered Compound Containing [PMo<Subscript>12</Subscript>O<Subscript>40</Subscript>]<Superscript>3−</Superscript> and Both 5- and 6-Coordinated Homoleptic (1-(2-Chloroethyl)tetrazole)Copper(II) Cations

Summary.  The synthesis, crystal structure and physical properties of the complex obtained from the reaction between the polyoxometalate anion [PMo₁₂O₄₀]³⁻, copper(II) and the ligand 1-(2-chloroethyl)tetrazole (teec) are described. This compound has been synthesized as a model for designing materials containing both magnetic polyoxometalate anions and iron(II) spin-crossover cations. The compound, with formula [Cu(teec)₅]₂[Cu(teec)₆][PMo₁₂O₄₀]₂·2H₂O, consists of alternating layers of polyoxometalates and cationic complexes. Both, five and six coordinated Cu(II) ions are present, each positioned in different layers. Despite these layers having a similar width, the layer of pentacoordinated Cu(II) ions contains twice as many cationic complexes as the layer of hexacoordinated Cu(II) ions. This unusual coexistence of complexes with different coordination number is most likely caused by the steric hindrance induced by the bulky polyoxometalates in the layer of pentacoordinated Cu(II) which prevents the presence of a sixth teec ligand.

Thermal analysis of copper(Ii) complexes of general formula [Et<Subscript>4</Subscript>N]<Subscript>2</Subscript>[CuBr<Subscript>n</Subscript>Cl<Subscript>4-n</Subscript>]

Thermal decomposition of compounds consisting of tetrahalogenocuprate(II), [CuBr_nCl_4−n]²⁻ (n=0–4) anions and a tetraethylammonium cation has been studied using TG-FTIR, TG-MS, DTA and DTG techniques. The measurements were carried out in an argon and air atmospheres over the temperature range 293-1073 K. The products of the thermal decomposition were identified by IR and Far Infrared (FIR) spectroscopy as well as X-ray powder diffractometry.     

Crystal structure of [Bi(<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-ethylthiourea)<Subscript>4</Subscript>(ClO<Subscript>4</Subscript>)<Subscript>2</Subscript>]ClO<Subscript>4</Subscript>

The structure of the bismuth(III) complex with N-ethylthiourea (Ettu) has been determined for the first time. We found that the crystal structure of [Bi(Ettu)₄(ClO₄)₂]ClO₄ is built of distorted octahedral cations [Bi(Ettu–S)₄(ClO₄)₂]ClO₄]⁺ and anions ClO₄^-. The deviation of one of the two independent Ettu molecules from the plane structure is explained by the mutual repulsion of the ligands and the formation features of hydrogen bonds. The C₂H₅(Ettu) group is in the cis position relative to the thiocarbonyl group.     

Zinc(II) complexes derived from imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-ylacetic acid (HIP-2-ac): [Zn(IP-2-ac)2(H2O)] and unexpectedly, [Zn3(IP-2-ac)6(H2O)]·11H2O

Two zinc(II) complexes based on imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-ylacetate (IP-2-ac), [Zn(IP-2-ac)₂(H₂O)] (1) and [Zn₃(IP-2-ac)₆(H₂O)]·11H₂O (2), were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In both 1 and 2, zinc(II) ions are five-coordinate with N₂O₃ donor set, best described as a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. In 1, two IP-2-ac ligands chelate zinc(II) through a N,O donor set, whereas in 2, both bidentate and μ-bridging binding modes of IP-2-ac are observed. The crystal of 1 comprises discrete Zn(IP-2-ac)₂(H₂O) coordination entities combined into layers by hydrogen bonds. Inter-layer stabilization of the 3-D crystal lattice is provided by weak C–H?O contacts and π?π interactions. The structure of 2 consists of discrete trinuclear Zn₃(IP-2-ac)₆(H₂O) coordination entities joined into crystal lattice by multiple water molecules.

Compound 1 was characterized by FTIR and FT-Raman spectroscopy, and in terms of thermal stability. Furthermore, its antibacterial activity was tested against selected gram-positive, gram-negative bacteria, and Candida albicans yeast and compared with activity of previously reported [M(IP-2-ac)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O (M = Co, Ni, Mn, Cd) complexes.

The Tetrachloridoaurates(III) of Zinc(II) and Cadmium(II)

The first salt‐like compounds of dications with [AuCl₄]^– anions are reported. The compounds Zn[AuCl₄]₂ · (AuCl₃)_1.115 ( 1 ) and Cd[AuCl₄]₂ ( 2 ) are obtained from reactions of MCl₂ (M = Zn, Cd) and elemental gold in liquid chlorine at ambient temperature under autogenous pressure and subsequent annealing at 230 °C. The structure of 1 represents an incommensurately modulated composite [superspace group C2/c(α0γ)0s] built of two subsystems. The first subsystem contains chains of zinc(II) tetrachloridoaurate(III), which feature a slightly distorted octahedral coordination of Zn and can be described by the Niggli formula ¹_∞{Zn[AuCl₄]_1/1[AuCl₄]_2/2}. The second subsystem consists of Au₂Cl₆ molecules, which are located in channels built up by the first subsystem. The structural parameters of the hosted Au₂Cl₆ molecules show only small deviations from neat AuCl₃. The crystal structure of Cd[AuCl₄]₂ ( 2 ) consists of chains built of Cd²⁺ ions coordinated by bridging [AuCl₄]^– anions and alternating Cd‐Au sequence. Cd has a distorted octahedral coordination environment.     

THE CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF A FURAN-2-CARBOXYLATE HETEROBIMETALLIC COMPLEX [Zn(H2O)6]2+[Zn8Na2(C5H3O3)18(OH)2]2-

Abstract

The crystals of a zinc-sodium complex with furan-2-carboxylate (FCA) as a ligand, n[Zn(H₂O)₆]²⁺[Zn₈Na₂(FCA)₁₈(OH]₂]^2- _n , contain hexahydrated zinc cations and polyanions in which four differently coordinated zinc(II) cations are bridged by bidentate and monodentate (FCA) ligands. In addition, a number of carboxylate and furan ring oxygen atoms are coordinated to sodium(I) atoms which constitute the backbone of the polyanion. [Zn(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cations are located in cavities formed by adjacent polyanions and interact with them via a system of hydrogen bonds. The resulting molecular layers are stacked in the crystal along the [100] direction.

The structures are stabilized by N-H—S, N-H—N, and C-H—N intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds.     

More crystal field theory in action: the metal–4‐picoline (pic)–sulfate [M(pic)x]SO4 complexes (M = Fe,Co, Ni,Cu, Zn,and Cd)

Seven crystal structures of five first‐row (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) and one second‐row (Cd) transition metal–4‐picoline (pic)–sulfate complexes of the form [M(pic)_x]SO₄ are reported. These complexes are catena‐poly[[tetrakis(4‐methylpyridine‐κN)metal(II)]‐μ‐sulfato‐κ²O:O′], [M(SO₄)(C₆H₇N)₄]_n, where the metal/M is iron, cobalt, nickel, and cadmium, di‐μ‐sulfato‐κ⁴O:O‐bis[tris(4‐methylpyridine‐κN)copper(II)], [Cu₂(SO₄)₂(C₆H₇N)₆], catena‐poly[[bis(4‐methylpyridine‐κN)zinc(II)]‐μ‐sulfato‐κ²O:O′], [Zn(SO₄)(C₆H₇N)₂]_n, and catena‐poly[[tris(4‐methylpyridine‐κN)zinc(II)]‐μ‐sulfato‐κ²O:O′], [Zn(SO₄)(C₆H₇N)₃]_n. The Fe, Co, Ni, and Cd compounds are isomorphous, displaying polymeric crystal structures with infinite chains of M^II ions adopting an octahedral N₄O₂ coordination environment that involves four picoline ligands and two bridging sulfate anions. The Cu compound features a dimeric crystal structure, with the Cu^II ions possessing square‐pyramidal N₃O₂ coordination environments that contain three picoline ligands and two bridging sulfate anions. Zinc crystallizes in two forms, one exhibiting a polymeric crystal structure with infinite chains of Zn^II ions adopting a tetrahedral N₂O₂ coordination containing two picoline ligands and two bridging sulfate anions, and the other exhibiting a polymeric crystal structure with infinite chains of Zn^II ions adopting a trigonal bipyramidal N₃O₂ coordination containing three picoline ligands and two bridging sulfate anions. The structures are compared with the analogous pyridine complexes, and the observed coordination environments are examined in relation to crystal field theory.

Two new zinc(II) complexes, [Zn(L¹)₂] (I) and [Zn(L²)₂] (II), derived from the Schiff bases, have been prepared and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, FT-IR, and elemental analysis. Complex I crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 17.834(4), b = 14.738(3), c = 9.868(2) Å, β = 91.20(3)°, V = 2593.1(9) ų, Z = 4.

The Zn atom in each complex is coordinated by two N and two O atoms from two Schiff base ligands, forming a tetrahedral geometry. The Schiff bases and the complexes were assayed for antibacterial activities.
