Iron salts with the tetracyanidoborate anion: [Fe(III)(H2O)6][B(CN)4]3, coordination polymer [Fe(II)(H2O)2{κ2N[B(CN)4]}2], and [Fe(II)(DMF)6][B(CN)4]2

The reaction of Fe(OH)(3) with tetracyanidoboronic acid, H[B(CN)(4)]·xH(2)O, in water leads to the first examples of tetracyanidoborates with a triply charged metal cation, [Fe(III)(H(2)O)(6)][B(CN)(4)](3) (1). Using elemental iron powder as starting material, [Fe(II)(H(2)O)(2){κ(2)ΝB(CN)(4)]}(2)] (2) is obtained. Anhydrous iron(II) tetracyanidoborate, which is synthesized by heating of 2, is soluble in dry dimethylformamide. After evaporation of the DMF solvent, single crystals of the third title compound, [Fe(II)(DMF)(6)][B(CN)(4)](2) (3), are obtained. Compound 3 is the first metal tetracyanidoborate soluble in nonpolar solvents. The title compounds have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (1 rhombohedral, R3c (no. 167), a = 14.9017(7) ?, c = 20.486(1) ?, Z = 6; 2 tetragonal, I42d (no. 122), a = 12.3662(3) ?, c = 9.2066(4) ?, Z = 4; 3 triclinic, P1 (no. 2), a = 8.6255(3) ?, b = 11.0544(4) ?, c = 12.2377(5) ?, Z = 1). The metal ions in all three compounds are octahedrally coordinated. Whereas 1 and 3 are built up from isolated complex ions, 2 comprises a coordination polymer, in which the Fe(II) ion is coordinated by two oxygen atoms of two water molecules in a trans orientation and four nitrogen donor atoms of the [B(CN)(4)](-) groups, which bridge between neighboring iron ions. The iron(III) ion in 3 is in a perfect octahedral environment, which is formed by the O atoms of 6 molecules of water. The single-crystal X-ray structures, vibrational spectra, thermal properties, solubilities, and electrochemical characteristics are reported and compared with those of other known tetracyanidoborates.     

23-Electron Re6 metal clusters: syntheses and crystal structures of (Ph4P)3[Re6S8(CN)6], (Ph4P)2(H)[Re6Se8(CN)6]·8H2O,and (Et4N)2(H)[Re6Te8(CN)6]·2H2O

The cluster anions [Re₆X₈(CN)₆]^34– (X = S, Se, or Te) containing 23 cluster valence electrons in the Re₆ octahedron were synthesized and isolated as salts with organic cations. The crystal structures of the (Ph₄P)₃[Re₆S₈(CN)₆], (Ph₄P)₂(H)[Re₆Se₈(CN)₆]·8H₂O, and (Et₄N)₂(H)[Re₆Te₈(CN)₆]·2H₂O clusters were solved by X-ray diffraction analysis. Removal of one electron has virtually no effect on the geometry and interatomic distances in the cluster anion but leads to a substantial change in the electronic spectrum and to an increase in stretching vibration frequencies _CN compared to those of the [Re₆X₈(CN)₆]^4– anions.     

Electrophilic Substitution Mn(II) → M(II) (M = Co,Ni, Cu,Zn, Cd) in Gelatin-Immobilized Mn2[Fe(CN)6]

Reactions of electrophilic substitution Mn(II) M(II) (M = Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd) are studied in gelatin-immobilized Mn(II) hexacyanoferrate(II) systems brought in contact with aqueous solutions of metal chlorides MCl₂. As the result of this contact, Mn(II) is replaced by Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), or Cd(II) to give heteronuclear metal hexacyanoferrates(II) (MHCF) of Mn(II) and two-charged ions. Neither of the systems under study showed a complete substitution of Mn(II) or the formation of the respective mononuclear hexacyanoferrate(II) M₂[Fe(CN)₆]. When any of the above gelatin-immobilized MHCF was brought in contact with an aqueous solution of MnCl₂, no electrophilic substitution M(II) Mn(II) was observed even for a long contact time.     

Electrophilic Substitution Ni(II)→M(II) in Ni2[Fe(CN)6] Gelatin-immobilized Matrix Materials

The electrophilic substitution reactions Ni(II)M(II) (M = Co, Cu, Zn, Cd) occurring in nickel(II) hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix materials on their contact with aqueous solutions of corresponding chlorides MCl2 were studied. During contact, Ni(II) is partly substituted by the other metal to form heteronuclear hexacyanoferrates(II) of nickel(II) and corresponding double-charged ions, and none of the studied reactions involves complete substitution of Ni(II) until the mononuclear hexacyanoferrate(II) M₂[Fe(CN)₆] has formed.     

Photomagnetic K(0.25)Ni(1-x)Co(x)[Fe(CN)6]·nH2O and K(0.25)Co[Fe(CN)6](0.75y)[Cr(CN)6](0.75(1-y))·nH2O Prussian blue analogue solid solutions

Magnetically bistable solid solutions of Prussian blue analogues with chemical formulas of K(α)Ni(1-x)Co(x)[Fe(CN)(6)](β)·nH(2)O (Ni(1-x)Co(x)Fe) and K(α)Co(γ)[Fe(CN)(6)](y)[Cr(CN)(6)](1-y)·nH(2)O (CoFe(y)Cr(1-y)) have been synthesized and studied using mass spectrometry, M?ssbauer spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, temperature-dependent infrared spectroscopy, and dc magnetometry. These compounds provide insight into interfaces between the photomagnetic Co-Fe Prussian blue analogue and the high-T(C) Ni-Cr Prussian blue analogue that exist in high-T(C) photomagnetic heterostructures. This investigation shows that the bistability of Co-Fe is strongly modified by metal substitution, with Ni(1-x)Co(x)Fe stabilizing high-spin cobalt-iron pairs and CoFe(y)Cr(1-y) stabilizing low-spin cobalt-iron pairs, while both types of substitution cause a dramatic decrease in the bistability of the material.     

Synthesis of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with 2-(2-hydroxyphenyliminomethyl)-1-(4-methyl-phenylsulfonamido)benzene and crystal structures of {bis(methanol)[2-(2′-N-tosylaminophenyl)iminomethyl]phenolato}nickel(II) and {bis(2,2′-bipyridine)[2-(2′-N-tosylaminophenyl)iminomethyl]phenolato}copper(II)

Electrochemical oxidation of metal anodes (cobalt, copper and nickel) in acetonitrile solutions of 2-(2-hydroxyphenyliminomethyl)-1-(4-methyl-phenylsulfonamido)benzene (H₂L) gave [CoL], [CuL] and [NiL] complexes. When 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) was added to the electrolytic cell, the mixed complexes [MLL′] (M=Co, Cu, L′=bipy or M=Ni, L′=phen) were obtained. A binuclear compound of composition [Ni₂L₂(MeOH)₄] (1) was synthesized by reaction of the ligand H₂L and nickel(II) acetate in methanol. X-ray structure determination showed the compound to be binuclear, with each nickel atom coordinated to two nitrogen and two bridging phenol oxygen atoms of two dianionic ligands and two methanol molecules, in an octahedral environment. The crystal structure of [CuLbipy] (2) was determined by X-ray diffraction; with the copper atom in a distorted bipyramidal environment defined by the two bipyridine nitrogen atoms and by the phenolic oxygen and the nitrogen atoms of the dianionic ligand. The electronic and vibrational spectral data of the complexes are discussed and related to the structure.     

Photoinduced magnetism in core/shell Prussian blue analogue heterostructures of K(j)Ni(k)[Cr(CN)6]l·nH2O with Rb(a)Co(b)[Fe(CN)6]c·mH2O

Core/shell and core/shell/shell particles comprised of the Prussian blue analogues K(j)Ni(k)[Cr(CN)(6)](l)·nH(2)O (A) and Rb(a)Co(b)[Fe(CN)(6)](c)·mH(2)O (B) have been prepared for the purpose of studying persistent photoinduced magnetization in the heterostructures. Synthetic procedures have been refined to allow controlled growth of relatively thick (50-100 nm) consecutive layers of the Prussian blue analogues while minimizing the mixing of materials at the interfaces. Through changes in the order in which the two components are added, particles with AB, ABA, BA, and BAB sequences have been prepared. The two Prussian blue analogues were chosen because B is photoswitchable, and A is ferromagnetic with a relatively high magnetic ordering temperature, ~70 K, although it is not known to exhibit photoinduced changes in its magnetic properties. Magnetization measurements on the heterostructured particles performed prior to irradiation show behavior characteristic of the individual components. On the other hand, after irradiation with visible light, the heterostructures undergo persistent photoinduced changes in magnetization associated with both the B and A analogues. The results suggest that structural changes in the photoactive B component distort the normally photoinactive A component, leading to a change in its magnetization.

Both compounds 1 and 2 adopt the Anderson structure, in which the anion is of centrosymmetry and formed by six octahedral edge-sharing MoO6 units surrounding the central MO6 (M = Mn or Co) octahedron.     

Novel Three-Dimensional Coordination Polymers Based on [Mo6Se8(CN)6]7− Anions and Mn2+ Cations

Three novel coordination polymers K₅[MnMo₆Se₈(CN)₆] · 8H₂O (1), (Me₄N)₄[{Mn(H₂O)₂}_1.5Mo₆Se₈(CN)₆] · 4H₂O (2), and K₃[{Mn₂(H₂O)₄}Mo₆Se₈(CN)₆] · 7H₂O (3) have been synthesized by layering of a methanol solution of [Mn(salen)]CH₃COO (salen–N,N′-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine) on an aqueous solution of K₇[Mo₆Se₈(CN)₆] · 8H₂O.

Electrophilic Substitution Co(II)→M(II) (M = Mn,Ni, Cu,Zn, Cd) in Co2[Fe(CN)6] Gelatin-Immobilized Matrices

Electrophilic substitutions Co(II) M(II) (M = Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd) in cobalt(II) hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrices in contact with aqueous solutions of corresponding chlorides MCl₂ were studied. As a result of this contact, Co(II) was shown to be replaced to some extent by Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), or Cd(II) and to give heteronuclear cobalt(II) hexacyanoferrates(II) and two-charge ions. A complete substitution of Co(II) or the formation the respective mononuclear hexacyanoferrate(II) M₂[Fe(CN)₂] was observed in neither of the studied systems Co(II) M(II). No Co(II) Mn(II) substitution was observed, even though the immobilized matrix was in contact with a solution for a long time.     

Synthesis and Molecular and Crystal Structure of K4.5{[Mo3(μ3-Te)(μ2-Te2)3(CN)6]I}I1.5·3H2O and Cs3{[Mo3(μ3-Te)(μ2-Te2)3(CN)6]I}·2H2O

Crystal structures of two new compounds containing trigonal tellurium-bridged cluster fragments [Mo₃(₃-Te)(₂-Te₂)₃]⁴⁺ were investigated. Crystal data for K_4.5{[Mo₃(₃-Te)(₂-Te₂)₃(CN)₆]I}I_1.5·3H₂O: space group , Z = 4, a = 13.280(1), c = 23.800(3) , V = 3635.0(6) ³, d _calc = 3.432 g/cm³, R ₁ = 0.0335, wR2 = 0.0912 for 1378 I _hkl > 2 _I from 3545 measured I _hkl ; for Cs₃{[Mo₃(₃-Te)(₂-Te₂)₃(CN)₆]I}·2H₂O: space group P2 ₁ /n, Z = 2, a= 9.650(2) , b = 22.297(5), c = 27.446(7) , = 94.10(2)°, V = 5890(2) ³, d _calc = 4.273 g/cm ³, R ₁ = 0.0384, wR ₂ = 0.0744 for 957 I _hkl > 2 _I from 3758 measured I _hkl (Enraf-Nonius CAD-4 diffractometer, MoK , graphite monochromator). In both compounds, ionic pairs {[Mo₃Te₇(CN)₆]I}^3– with Te_ax...I^– distances of 3.358-3.676 are formed. In the potassium salt, the {[Mo₃Te₇(CN)₆]I}^3– anion pairs are linked by the additional Te_eqI^– short contacts of 3.460 into two-dimensional corrugated layers perpendicular to the c axis of the unit cell. The structure of the cesium salt is ionic with interstitial H₂O molecules and double-layer closest packing of anions.     

A structural and Mössbauer study of complexes with Fe(2)(micro-O(H))(2) cores: stepwise oxidation from Fe(II)(micro-OH)(2)Fe(II) through Fe(II)(micro-OH)(2)Fe(III) to Fe(III)(micro-O)(micro-OH)Fe(III)

Dinuclear non-heme iron clusters containing oxo, hydroxo, or carboxylato bridges are found in a number of enzymes involved in O(2) metabolism such as methane monooxygenase, ribonucleotide reductase, and fatty acid desaturases. Efforts to model structural and/or functional features of the protein-bound clusters have prompted the preparation and study of complexes that contain Fe(micro-O(H))(2)Fe cores. Here we report the structures and spectroscopic properties of a family of diiron complexes with the same tetradentate N4 ligand in one ligand topology, namely [(alpha-BPMCN)(2)Fe(II)(2)(micro-OH)(2)](CF(3)SO(3))(2) (1), [(alpha-BPMCN)(2)Fe(II)Fe(III)(micro-OH)(2)](CF(3)SO(3))(3) (2), and [(alpha-BPMCN)(2)Fe(III)(2)(micro-O)(micro-OH)](CF(3)SO(3))(3) (3) (BPMCN = N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane). Stepwise one-electron oxidations of 1 to 2 and then to 3 demonstrate the versatility of the Fe(micro-O(H))(2)Fe diamond core to support a number of oxidation states with little structural rearrangement. Insight into the electronic structure of 1, 2', and 3 has been obtained from a detailed M?ssbauer investigation (2' differs from 2 in having a different complement of counterions). Mixed-valence complex 2' is ferromagnetically coupled, with J = -15 +/- 5 cm(-)(1) (H = JS(1).S(2)). For the S = (9)/(2) ground multiplet we have determined the zero-field splitting parameter, D(9/2) = -1.5 +/- 0.1 cm(-)(1), and the hyperfine parameters of the ferric and ferrous sites. For T < 12 K, the S = (9)/(2) multiplet has uncommon relaxation behavior. Thus, M(S) = -(9)/(2) <--> M(S) = +(9)/(2) ground state transition is slow while deltaM(S) = +/-1 transitions between equally signed M(S) levels are fast on the time scale of M?ssbauer spectroscopy. Below 100 K, complex 2' is trapped in the Fe(1)(III)Fe(2)(II) ground state; above this temperature, it exhibits thermally assisted electron hopping into the state Fe(1)(II)Fe(2)(III). The temperature dependence of the isomer shifts was corrected for second-order Doppler shift, obtained from the study of diferrous 1. The resultant true shifts were analyzed in a two-state hopping model. The diferric complex 3 is antiferromagnetically coupled with J = 90 +/- 15 cm(-)(1), estimated from a variable-temperature M?ssbauer analysis.     

Structures, energy bands and conductivities of (Me_3NEt)[Pd(dmit)_2]_2 and (NEt_4)[Pd(dmit)_2]_2

The electrical conductive molecular crystals (Me3NEt)[Pd(dmit)2]2 and (NEt4)[Pd (dmit)2]2 (dmit = 4,5-dimercapto-1,3-dithiole-2-thione) have been prepared, and their crystal structures and conductivity-temperature curves have been determined. The fact that the conductivity at room temperature of (Me3NEt)[Pd(dmit)2]2 (a = 58 Ω· cm-1) is much higher than that of (NEt4)-[Pd(dmit)2]2(cr= 2.2 Q~1 ?cm'1) has been rationally explained by the results of energy band calculations. (MeNEt3)[Pd(dmit)2]2 belongs to monoclinic system, P21/m space group and (NEt4)[Pd (dmit)2]2 belongs to triclinic system, P1 space group. The structural conducting component of the crystals is the planar coordinative anion [Pd(dmit)2]05- which forms the face-to-face dimmer [Pd(dmit)2]2-. These dimers have been further constructed to be a kind of two-dimensional (2-D)conductive molecular sheet by means of S…S intermolecular interactions. The tiny difference of the above 2-D molecular sheets of the two title crystals has resulted in one     

Reactions of [Y(BDI)(I)2(THF)] [BDI = {HC(CMeNAr)2}−, Ar = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl] with Na[M(Cp)(CO)3] (M = Cr,W): X-ray crystal structures of [{Y(BDI)[Cr(Cp)(CO)3]2(THF)}2] and [W(Cp)(CO)3][Na(THF)2]

Reaction of [Y(BDI)(I)₂(THF)] (1) with two equivalents of Na[Cr(Cp)(CO)₃] affords the dimeric complex [{Y(BDI)[Cr(Cp)(CO)₃]₂(THF)}₂] (2). Complex 2 contains two yttrium-BDI units which are each linked by two isocarbonyl bridging [Cr(Cp)(CO)₃]^? anions; a terminal, isocarbonyl bound [Cr(Cp)(CO)₃]^? anion and THF molecule completes the coordination sphere at each yttrium. This results in formation of a centrosymmetric, 12-membered C₄O₄Cr₂Y₂ ring. Forcing conditions were required to produce carbonyl metallate derivatives such as 2, as exemplified by the isolation of crystals of [W(Cp)(CO)₃][Na(THF)₂] (3) from the analogous reaction between 1 and two equivalents of Na[W(Cp)(CO)₃]. Complex 3 loses coordinated THF very easily and all isolated samples exhibit spectra consistent with the known, un-solvated form of Na[W(Cp)(CO)₃]. The crystal structure of 3 shows dimeric sodium units bridged by two THF molecules and one isocarbonyl group. Each sodium centre is further coordinated by one THF molecule and two isocarbonyl ligands. There are two crystallographically distinct [W(Cp)(CO)₃]^? units; one exhibits two bridging isocarbonyl groups and the other exhibits three bridging isocarbonyl groups to different sodium dimer units. This results in a 2-dimensional polymeric sheet network in the solid state. Complex 2 was characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction, NMR spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy and CHN microanalysis; complex 3 was characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction only.

[Na(DB18-C-6)(H2O)2][Na(DB18-C-6)(SCN)2]：Two-Di-mensional Network Complex Assembled by π-π Stacking Interactios,Hydrogen Bonds and Electrostatic Interactions

A novel two‐dimensional network dibenzo‐18‐crown‐6 (DB18‐C6) complex: [Na (DB18‐C‐6) (H₂O)₂] [Na (DB18‐C‐6) (SCN)₂] has been isolated and characterized by elemental, IR and X‐ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structure belongs to monoclinic, space group P2₁/c with cell dimensions a = 1.06178(7), b = 1.40243(8), c = 3.03496(19) nm, β = 90.4220(10)°, V = 4.5292(5) nm³, Z=4, D_calcd =1.351 g/ cm³, F(000) = 1936, R₁ = 0.0369, wR₂ = 0.0821. The most interesting feature in this structure is that complex cation and complex anion form a two‐dimensional network via τ‐τ stacking interactions, hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions.
