Syntheses and structural characterization of transition metal(II) coordination polymers containing 4,4′-dipyridyldisulfide

The reactions of Zn(NO₃)₂ · 6H₂O and FeSO₄ · 7H₂O with 4-PDS (4-PDS = 4,4′-dipyridyldisulfide) and NH₄SCN in CH₃OH afforded the complexes [Zn(NCS)₂(4-PDS)]_n (1) and [Fe(NCS)₂(4-PDS)₂ · 4H₂O]_n (2), respectively, while the reaction of CoCl₂ · 6H₂O with 4-PDS in CH₃OH gave the complex {[Co(4-PDS)₂][Cl]₂ · 2CH₃OH}_n, (3). These complexes have been characterized by spectroscopic methods and their structures determined by X-ray crystallography. The 4-PDS ligands in 1 are coordinated to the metal centers through the nitrogen atoms to form 1-D zigzag-chains, and the distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry at each zinc center is completed by a pair of N-bonded thiocyanate ligands. Compound 2 has a 1-D channel-chain structure and each octahedral Fe(II) metal center is coordinated by four 4-PDS ligands and two trans N-bonded thiocyanate ligands. Weak SS interactions in complex 1 link the 1-D chains into 2-D molecular sheets. In complex 2, the channel chains are interlinked through SS interactions to form molecular sheets, which interpenetrate through the SS interactions to form 3-D structures with large cavities that are occupied by the water molecules. Compound 3 also has a 1-D channel-chain structure with each square-planar Co(II) metal center coordinated by four 4-PDS ligands. Multiple C–HCl hydrogen bonds and SO interactions in 3 link the 1-D chains into 2-D structures.     

Syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic properties of Ni(II)–2,4-pyridine-dicarboxylates

Two new complexes [Ni(pydc)(H₂O)₂]_n (1) and [Ni₂(pydc)₂(H₂O)₅]_n (2) (H₂pydc = 2,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid) have been obtained by hydrothermal synthetic method and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis. In 1 six-coordinate Ni(II) ions are coordinated by pydc ligands to form 2-D layer structures; while in 2 six-coordinate Ni(II) ions are only connected into 1-D zigzag chains constructed by dinuclear nickel units. Although the coordination geometries around Ni(II) centers in both complexes are similar, their structure topologies are greatly tuned by coordination modes of pydc. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility studies have shown that both compounds 1 and 2 may display antiferromagnetic coupling between paramagnetic metal centers mediated by bridging carboxylate groups.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic behavior of two cobalt coordination polymers with 1,2-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)ethane and dicyanamide

Two cobalt(II) coordination polymers formed from bte (bte = 1,2-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)ethane), namely [Co(bte)₂(dca)₂]_n (1) and {[Co(bte)(dca)₂] · H₂O}_n (2), have been synthesized and characterized by elementary analyses, IR, thermogravimetric analyses, X-ray diffraction analyses and magnetic measurements. Compound 1 is a double-chain with Co(II) centers bridged by bte, containing metallocycles of [Co₂(bte)₂] and trans dca as termination ligands. In 2, each Co(II) center is bonded by two bridging bte ligands and four dca as μ-1,5-dca in different orientations in the 3D network.     

Three interpenetrated frameworks constructed by long flexible N,N′-bipyridyl and dicarboxylate ligands

Three interpenetrated polymeric networks, {[Co(bpp)(OH-BDC)] · H₂O}_n (1) [Ni(bpp)_1.5(H₂O)(OH-BDC)]_n (2) and {[Cd(bpp)(H₂O)(OH-BDC)] · 2H₂O}_n (3), have been prepared by hydrothermal reactions of 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane (bpp), 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid (OH-H₂BDC), with Co(NO₃)₂ · 6H₂O, Ni(NO₃)₂ · 6H₂O and Cd(NO₃)₂ · 4H₂O, respectively. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that the three compounds all exhibit interpenetrated but entirely different structures. Compound 1 is a fourfold interpenetrated adamantanoid structure with water molecules as space fillers, in which bpp adopts a TG conformation (T = trans, G = gauche). Compound 2 is an interdigitated structure from the interpenetrated long arms of one-dimensional molecular ladders, while bpp in 2 adopts both TT and TG conformations. Compound 3 is a twofold interpenetrated three-dimensional network from a one-dimensional metal-carboxylate chain bridged by TG conformational bpp. The hydrogen bonding interactions in 1–3 further stabilize the whole structural frameworks and play critical roles in their constructions.     

Two novel lanthanide 1-D chain coordination polymers of pyridinedicarboxylic acids: hydrothermal synthesis, structure and luminescent properties

Two novel lanthanide coordination polymers [Sm(Hdipic)(dipic)(H₂O)₂·4H₂O]_n (1) (H₂dipic=2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid) and [Dy(Hdinic)(dinic)(phen)(H₂O)·H₂O]_n (2) (H₂dinic=2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid) have been synthesized under hydrothermal condition and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results reveal that both of them form a chain-like one-dimensional structure. The photophysical properties for the two complexes have been also reported. Complex 1 shows the characteristic luminescence of central Sm³⁺ while complex 2 exhibits the particular emission ascribed H₂dinic ligands, which suggest the different energy transfer process takes place.     

Synthesis, characterization and structure of complexes of o-aminophenol-N,N,O-triacetic acid with cobalt(II), nickel(II), manganese(II) and zinc(II)

The potassium salt of o-aminophenol-N,N,O-triacetic acid (APTA) and KMnL·H₂O, KCoL·3H₂O, KNiL·3H₂O, KZnL·3ZH₂O, Co(CoL)₂·7H₂O and Ni(NiL)₂·8H₂O(L³⁻:anion of APTA) have been synthesized and characterized by elementary analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, molar conductance, IR spectra, magnetic measurements and electronic spectra. The coordination environments of these metal ions have been discussed on the basis of these studies. The single crystal structure of cobalt(II)-APTA has been determined as CoL·0.5Co(H₂O)₆·4H₂O, which contains two types of cobalt(II). One type of cobalt(II) is coordinated with six water molecules to form Co(H₂O)₆²⁺, the other is chelated by APTA to form a distorted octahedron and linked into an infinite chain anion [COC₆H₄(OCH₂COO)N(CH₂COO)₂⁻]_n, in which each cobalt(II) atom is linked with neighbouring cobalt(II) atoms through two carboxylate oxygen atoms of the phenoxyacetate group. Water molecules occupy interstices in the structure.     

Solvothermal syntheses and crystal structures of two metal coordination polymers with double-chain structures

Two polymeric complexes, [Cu₂(btec)(phen)₂]_n·(H₂O)_n (1) and [Cd₄(btec)₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄]_n (2) (H₄btec=1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid; PHEN=1,10-phenanthroline), were synthesized by solvothermal reactions at 140 °C. Both complex 1 and 2 possess infinite double-chain structures, in which each Cu(II) center has a tetrahedral configuration and the Cd(II) centers adopt triangular prismatic and square-based pyramidal configurations simultaneously. The inter-chain face to face π–π interactions among the aromatic rings of phen and the hydrogen bond interactions between aqua molecules and carboxyl O atoms result in 3-D networks in the two complexes. The ESR spectra study of complex 1 shows that there is negligibly small long-range super-exchange interactions between the Cu(II) atoms via benzenecarboxylate bridging.     

Polarized absorption spectra and polarized Raman spectra of single crystals of trans(Cl2)-[CoCl2(NH3)n(H2O)4−n]Cl complexes (n = 2, 3, 4)

The title cobalt(III) complexes have been investigated by polarized absorption and Raman spectroscopies of the single crystals. The symmetry properties of the d-electron orbitals and of the vibrational modes attributable to the Raman bands of trans(Cl₂)-[CoCl₂(NH₃)_n(H₂O)_4−n]Cl complexes (n = 2, 3, or 4) were examined to elucidated the peculiar observation that ligand substitution causes no splitting of the 15 200-cm⁻¹ absorption band and the 250-cm⁻¹ Raman band. Effects of replacing the NH₃ ligand with H₂O on the electronic structure, atom–atom force constants and vibrational modes of these complex ions are briefly described.     

Homochiral cobalt(II) and strontium(II) amino-carboxylate–phosphonate hybrids

Two homochiral metal amino-carboxylate–phosphonate hybrids, namely, [Co₂Cl(S-HL)(H₂O)₅]Cl · H₂O 1 and Sr₂(S-HL)(NO₃)₂(H₂O) · H₂O 2 (S-H₃L = S-HO₂CC₄H₇NCH₂PO₃H₂) have been synthesized by the reaction of the enantiopure S-H₃L ligand with cobalt(II) chloride or strontium nitrate under acidic condition at room temperature.

Compound 2 has a layered structure in which the 1D chains of edge-sharing SrO₈ and SrO₉ polyhedra are interconnected by phosphonate ligands.     

Ion size dominated 1D and 2D Salen lanthanide coordination complexes and their luminescence

Lewis acid/base addition between Ln(NO₃)₃ · 6H₂O (Ln = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb and Lu) and H₂salen [H₂salen = N,N′-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine)] gives rise to an array of coordination polymeric structures. Crystal structural analysis reveals that Salen effectively functions as a bridging ligand in these compounds. The size of the lanthanide ions controls the structures of these Salen lanthanide complexes. Two representative structures with one dimensional and two dimensional topologies, viz. [Pr(H₂salen)(NO₃)₃(CH₃OH)₂]_n (1) and [Ln(H₂salen)_1.5(NO₃)₃]_n [Ln = Pr (2), Nd (3), Sm (4), Eu (5), Tb (6) and Lu (7)] are reported. Luminescent spectra of complexes 4 and 5 exhibit characteristic metal-centered emission lines. However, the characteristic luminescence of the terbium(III) ion is not observed either in solution or in the solid state of complex 6.

Both neutral formula units make unique three-dimensional supramolecular architectures through hydrogen bonds and stabilized by electrostatic force.     

Syntheses, crystal structures and characterizations of new zinc (II) and lead (II) carboxylate-phosphonates

The syntheses, crystal structures and characterizations of two new divalent metal carboxylate-phosphonates, namely, Zn(H₃L)·2H₂O (1) and Pb(H₃L)(H₂O)₂ (2) (H₅L4-HO₂C–C₆H₄–CH₂N(CH₂PO₃H₂)₂₎ have been reported. Compound 1 features a 1D column structure in which the Zn(II) ions are tetrahedrally coordinated by four phosphonate oxygen atoms from four phosphonate ligands, and neighboring such 1D building blocks are further interconnected via hydrogen bonds into a 3D network. The carboxylate group of H₃L anion remains non-coordinated. Compound 2 has a 2D layer structure. Pb(II) ion is 7-coordinated by four phosphonate oxygen atoms from four phosphonate ligands and three aqua ligands. The interconnection of Pb(II) ions via bridging H₃L anions results in a 001 layer. The carboxylate group of the H₃L anion also remains non-coordinated and is oriented toward the interlayer space. Solid state luminescent spectrum of compound 1 exhibits a strong broad blue fluorescent emission band at 455 nm under excitation at 365 nm at room temperature.     

A density functional study on hydrated clusters of orthoboric acid, B(OH)3(H2O)n (n=1–5)

We have calculated the optimized structures and stabilization energies for hydrated clusters of orthoboric acid molecule, B(OH)₃(H₂O)_n (n=1–5), with a hybrid density functional approach. Although some ion-pair structures are revealed in the case of n=4 and 5 clusters, the most stable structure is found to be a non-proton-transferred form up to n=5 hydrated clusters. The calculated IR spectra of the stable B(OH)₃(H₂O)_n of n=3–5 clusters predict small red shifts of hydrogen-bonded OH frequencies. These geometry and IR results are related to the weak acidity nature of orthoboric acid.

The structure of the complex [Ni(hmt)(NCS)₂(H₂O)₂]_n, assembled by hexamethylenetetramine (hmt) and octahedral Ni(II), is reported. Crystal data: Fw 351.07, a=9.885(10) Å, b=12.06(1) Å, c=12.505(8) Å, β=114.41(4)°, V=1357(1) ų, Z=4, space group=C2/c, T=173 K, λ(Mo−K)=0.71070 Å, ρ_calc=1.718 gcm⁻¹, μ=17.44 cm⁻¹, R=0.099, Rw=0.145. The tetrahedral assembling template effect of the hmt molecule is completed by two coordination bonds and two hydrogen interactions. The UV–vis absorption spectrum of this complex [Ni(hmt)(NCS)₂(H₂O)₂]_n with a two-dimensional network is determined in the range of 5000–35000 cm⁻¹ at room temperature. The observed spectrum is discussed and explained perfectly by the scaling radial theory proposed by us. The two-dimensional structure has no apparent effects on the d–d transitions of the central Ni(II) ion. The IR spectrum and the GT curve of the complex were also measured and clearly reflect its structural properties.

The synthesis conditions and reaction results are also discussed.

Structural analyses reveal that compound 1 features a one-dimensional (1D) chain, while isomorphic 2 and 3 exhibit a three-dimensional (3D) network structure with interchain hydrogen-bonding. Antifungal activities tests reveal that 1 has the highest antifungal effect on the five fungi (Fusarium graminearum, Vasa mali, Macrophoma kawatsukai, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, and Alternaria alternate) among the three compounds. Furthermore, DNA cleavage experiments indicate that compound 1 has more efficient DNA (pUC 18) cleavage activity than compounds 2 and 3. The binding properties of the three compounds with DNA were also investigated by absorption. The results show that the three compounds can intercalate into DNA, and the interaction of compound 1 is the strongest.

3,6,9-trioxaundecanedioic acid (3,6,9-tddaH₂) reacts with Mn(CH₃CO₂)₂·4H₂O in ethanol to give [Mn(3,6,9-tdda)]·H₂O (1). Recrystallization of 1 from methanol gives crystals of [Mn(3,6,9-tdda) (H₂O)₂]·2H₂O (2). Complex 1 reacts with an ethanolic solution of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) to give {[Mn(3,6,9-tdda)(phen)₂]·3H₂O·EtOH}_n (3). All of the complexes are extremely water soluble. Complexes 2 and 3 were structurally characterised. The manganese(II) ion in 2 is seven coordinate, with an approximately pentagonal bipyramidal O₇ coordination sphere. The axial donors are water molecules and the pentagonal plane is occupied by the diacid, acting as a pentadentate ligand through the three ethereal oxygens and one oxygen atom from each of the carboxylate functions. In complex 3 the manganese(II) ion is six-coordinate, being bound to two bidentate phenanthroline ligands and to the carboxylate oxygen atoms from two symmetry related diacids which are coordinated in a cis fashion. The structure consists of polymeric chains, with diacid ligands bridging the manganese ions. There is π-π stacking of pairs of phenanthroline ligands on adjacent chains, running along both the z and y directions.
