The crystals of I containing two geometric isomers of the complex anions [Co(Ida)₂]⁻ were obtained by a slow cooling of a hot solution, which contained initially only the cis-isomer. One Ba atom in I interacts with the trans-complex and with two cis-complexes to give a three-dimensional framework in crystal I. The positive charge of the last framework is compensated by one more trans-complex and by the perchlorate ions, one of which acts as a bidentate ligand with respect to the Ba atom. The crystals of II are built of the chains with the alternating Ba atoms and the trans-(N)-[Co(Ida)₂]⁻ anions. The other anions of the same structure are each “suspended” to the Ba atoms of the chain. Original Russian Text ? M. Zabel, A.I. Poznyak, V.I.

Two novel organic amine templated lanthanide sulfates: Layer H3DETA · [Nd(H2O)(SO4)3] and chain-like H3DETA · [Ho(H2O)2(SO4)3]

Two novel organic amine templated lanthanide sulfates, layer (H₃DETA)[Nd(H₂O)(SO₄)₃] (I) and chain-like (H₃DETA)[Ho(H₂O)₂(SO₄)₃] (II), are hydrothermally synthesized by using diethylenetriamine (DETA) as template, and are structurally characterized by ICP, elemental analysis, X-ray single-crystal diffraction, X-ray powder diffraction, IR, and TG. Compound I is monoclinic with space group P2₁ and data of unit cell: a = 6.6518(13), b = 10.373(2), c = 11.091(2) ?, β = 93.61(3)°, V = 763.7(3) ?³, ρ _c = 2.421 g/cm³, μ(MoK _α) = 3.885 mm⁻¹, Z = 2, R ₁ = 0.0194 for 3312 reflections with F _o > 2σ(F _o). The Nd ions are nine-coordinated by one oxygen atom of coordinated water and eight oxygen atoms of sulfates. Compound I displays the layer structure constructed by linking Nd ions with three-linkage SO₄ tetrahedra as the bridge (affording one coordinated vertex and coordinated edge). Compound II crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with unit cell data: a = 6.594(13) ?, b = 14.783(3) ?, c = 16.599(3) ?, β = 93.47(3)°, V = 1614.2(6) ?³, ρ _c = 2.454 g/cm³, μ(MoK _α) = 5.37 mm⁻¹, Z = 4, R ₁ = 0.0259 for 1815 reflections with F _o > 2σ(F _o). The Ho ions are eight-coordinated by two oxygen atoms of coordinated water and six oxygen atoms of sulfates. The straight chain-like structure of II is attained by alternatively arranging HoO₈ polyhedra and two-linkage SO₄ tetrahedra (affording two coordinated vertices). The TG results indicate that the two compounds experience three weight losses and lead to distinct residues: Nd₂O₃ for I and HoO(SO₄)_0.5 for II.

[Ni(dien)₂]₃[W₄S₄(CN)₁₂]·20H₂O and [Cu(dien)(Hdien)]₂[W₄S₄(CN)₁₂]·8H₂O were obtained by evaporating water-ammonia solutions containing K₆[W₄S₄(CN)₁₂]·2H₂O·2CH₃OH, diethylene triamine, and NiCl₂·6H₂O or CuCl₂·6H₂O.

Syntheses and crystal structures of nine-coordinate K2[EuIII(dtpa)(H2O)]·5H2O and Na2[TbIII(Httha)]·6H2O complexes

The title complexes, K₂[Eu^III(dtpa)(H₂O)]·5H₂O (H₅dtpa = diethylenetriamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetic acid), Na₂[Tb^III(Httha)]·6H₂O (H₆ttha = triethylenetetramine-N,N,N′,N′,N″,N″-hexaacetic acid), were prepared, and their compositions and structures were determined by elemental analyses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The crystal of K₂[Eu^III(dtpa)(H₂O)]·5H₂O belongs to triclinic crystal system and $ P\bar 1 $ P\bar 1 space group. The crystal data are as follows: a = 8.3540(17), b = 10.147(2), c = 15.059(3) α = 84.63(3)?, β = 82.02(3)°, γ = 83.96(3)°, V = 1253.1(4)?³, Z = 2, R = 0.0325 and wR = 0.1013 for 4407 observed reflections with I ≥ 2σ(I). The [Eu^III(dtpa)(H₂O)]²⁻ has a nine-coordinate pseudo-monocapped square antiprismatic structure, in which the nine coordinate atoms, three N and six O are from one dtpa ligand and one water molecule. The crystal of the Na2[Tb^III(Httha)]·6H₂O belongs to monoclinic system and P2₁/c space group. The crystal data are as follows: a = 10.3976(10), b = 12.7908(13), c = 23.199(2) ? = 90.914(2)°, V = 3084.9(5)?³, Z = 4, R = 0.0309 and wR = 0.0704 for 5429 observed reflections with I ≥ 2σ(I). In the [Tb^III(Httha)]²⁻, the Tb³⁺ ion is nine-coordinated yielding a pseudo-monocapped square antiprismatic conformation, in which the ttha ligand coordinates to the central Tb³⁺ ion with four N atoms and five O atoms. There is a free non-coordinate carboxyl group (−CH₂COOH) that can be modified by some biological molecules having target function.
