Dihydrogen Phosphate and Hydrogen Sulphate of 1,4-Dimethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-diium: Crystal Structures, Hydrogen Bonding and Infrared Spectra

Abstract  

The crystal structures of the title compounds consist of 1,4-dimethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-diium cation [C₈H₁₈N₂]²⁺ and [H₂PO₄]⁻ or [HSO₄]⁻ anions. Both crystal structures are monoclinic, the structure of the dihydrogen phosphate (I) is non-centrosymmetric (P2₁) with a = 6.4090(2) ?, b = 13.6920(5) ?, c = 7.6140(3) ?, β = 94.620(2)°, V = 665.97(4) ?³, Z = 2; whereas the unit cell of the hydrogen sulphate (II) is centrosymmetric (P2₁/c) with a = 13.8460(2) ?, b = 12.6610(2) ?, c = 8.0360(2) ?, β = 99.5800(12)°, V = 1389.10(5) ?³, Z = 4. Both the structures are formed by the different bonding patterns of the anions interlinked by strong and moderate O–H···O hydrogen bonds. While the structure of (I) consists of a two-dimensional network of the hydrogen bonded dihydrogen phosphates, the infinite chains of the hydrogen bonded hydrogen sulphates are the basic building unit of the structure (II). In addition to the dominant electrostatic interaction the divalent cations stabilize themselves in the structures by forming several C–H···O hydrogen bonds to the oxygen atoms of the anions. The IR spectra of both the compounds are strongly affected by the hydrogen bonds whose influence on OH stretching vibrations is analysed by means of the DFT calculations in the solid state.

Abstract  Based on the reaction between Cp₂TiCl₂ and substituted salicylic acids in the presence of β-cyclodextrin polymer (β-CDP), three four-coordinated titanocene complexes [(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Ti(S,O′)(OCC₆H₄)·(C₆H₆)_0.5] (1), [(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Ti{(O,O′)(3,5-Cl₂-OCC₆H₂)}] (2) and [(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Ti{(O,O′)(3,5-(NO₂)₂-OCC₆H₂)}] (3) were synthesized in high yields and their crystal structures have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of 1 has a Monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 8.313(3) ?, b = 9.960(4) ?, c = 22.330(8) ?, β = 111.856(11)° and Z = 4. The structure of 2 has a Monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 8.0577(13) ?, b = 8.9022(14) ?, c = 21.977(4) ?, β = 96.298(3)° and Z = 4.

Each of the complexes exhibits a three-dimensional framework constructed through weak interactions, which are hydrogen bonding, π–π stacking and C–H···π interactions. It was found that the variation of the substituted salicylate ligands affect the weak interactions as well as the specific framework structure that forms.

In both structures, the N–H···N hydrogen bonds, form an infinite helical chain and generate a C(11)-type motif in (I) and a D₂²(13)-type motif in (II). Both the complexes have layer structures, the layers being constructed from rings (cavity) of four zolmitriptan molecules, hydrogen bonded through N–H···N and N–H···O bonds, where the pyridine (I) and propiophenone (II) solvates are included in an R₄⁴(33) ring.

Abstract  

The binuclear zinc complex bis(2-bromobenzoato-O)-bis(μ ₂ -2-bromobenzoato-O,O′)-bis(phenazone-O)-dizinc(II) (I) and the mononuclear dihydrate bis(2-bromobenzoato-O)-bis(thiourea-S)-zinc(II) (II) have been synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods (IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, EDS). The solid state structures of both compounds were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffractometry. Compound [Zn(2-BrC₆H₄COO)₂(phen)]₂ (phen—phenazone) (I) crystallized as a dimeric compound with a triclinic lattice (space group P − 1), where both zinc atoms, interconnected by two carboxylate groups, possess a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment.

Complex [Zn(2-BrC₆H₄COO)₂(tu)₂]·2H₂O (tu—thiourea) (II) crystallized with an orthorhombic lattice (space group Aba2) as a monomeric compound, where the coordination environment of the central zinc atom is a distorted tetrahedron. The crystallographic data of complex II are: a = 9.8595(3) ?, b = 19.7052(5) ?, c = 12.5908(3) ?, V = 2446.18(11) ?³, Z = 4. The modes of the carboxylate binding were assigned from the IR spectra using the magnitude of the separation between the carboxylate stretches (Δ), which correlated well with the crystal structures. The computed theoretical IR spectrum agreed well with the experimental data.

Abstract  

Two new metal complexes supported by {VO₃}_n ⁿ⁻ chains, [M(dpa)V₂O₆] (1, M = Zn²⁺; 2·H₂O, M = Cu²⁺; dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamine), have been synthesized hydrothermally and characterized by elemental analysis, TG analysis, IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: [Zn(dpa)V₂O₆] 1, Triclinic, P-1, a = 9.663(7) ?, b = 10.617(7) ?, c = 15.114(10) ?, α = 105.678(10)°, β = 104.772(9)°, γ = 94.021(10)°, Z = 2; [Cu(dpa)V₂O₆]·H₂O 2·H₂O, Monoclinic, C2, a = 20.543(3) ?, b = 7.2460(9) ?, c = 10.4853(13) ?, β = 111.318(2)°, Z = 4. Complex 1 is constructed from sinusoidal {VO₃}_n ⁿ⁻ chains with {Zn(dpa)}²⁺ fragments spanning the adjacent troughs and crests into an 1D ribbon-like structure. Complex 2 is built up by linking {VO₃}_n ⁿ⁻ chains via pairs of symmetrical {Cu(dpa)}²⁺ fragments into a 2D layered structure. The Zn(II) and Cu(II) ions exhibit tetrahedral and square pyramidal coordination environments, respectively. The formation of the two isomers is attributed to the flexibility of {VO₃}_n ⁿ⁻ chains and the different coordination configurations of the two metal ions. There exist significant π–π stacking and hydrogen bonding interactions in complexes 1 and 2.

Structural Modulation in Lanthanide Tetracyanoplatinates Incorporating Terpyridine: Synthesis and Structures of Four Distinct One-Dimensional Variants

Abstract  

The synthesis of four different lanthanide tetracyanoplatinates all incorporating 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine have been carried out in acetonitrile/water mixtures by reaction of an appropriate Ln³⁺ salt with 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine and potassium tetracyanoplatinate. The use of different Ln³⁺ salts as reactants results in the isolation of {La(tpy)(H₂O)₃}₂[Pt(CN)₄]₃·2CH₃CN·2H₂O (La-1) space group P[`1] P\bar{1} , a = 9.3862(15) ?, b = 12.186(1) ?, c = 13.493(1) ?, α = 88.082(7)°, β = 80.22(1)°, γ = 74.88(1)°, {Pr(tpy)(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>3</sub>}<sub>2</sub>[Pt(CN)<sub>4</sub>]<sub>3</sub>·2H<sub>2</sub>O (Pr-2) space group P[`1] P\bar{1} , a = 9.2458(15) ?, b = 10.8068(9) ?, c = 13.6178(14) ?, α = 84.554(8)°, β = 74.905(10)°, γ = 79.490(9)°, Ho(tpy)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)[Pt(CN)₄] · CH₃CN (Ho-3) space group P2₁/c, a = 12.867(1) ?, b = 15.1046(15) ?, c = 13.651(4) ?, β = 105.39(1)°, or Yb(tpy)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)[Pt(CN)₄]·0.5CH₃CN·1.5H₂O (Yb-4) space group Pbcn, a = 13.226(7) ?, b = 15.870(2) ?, c = 24.276(3) ? under quite similar reaction conditions. All four of these compounds have been isolated as single crystals and X-ray diffraction has been used to investigate their structural features. None of these compounds are isostructural with one another, but all contain one-dimensional, polymeric structures that contain tris chelation of the Ln³⁺ cations by terpyridine and bridging of the Ln³⁺ ions by tetracyanoplatinate. La-1 and Pr-2 contain both cis- and trans-bridging of Ln³⁺ cations by tetracyanoplatinate resulting in double chains with a ladder-type structure. Ho-3 and Yb-4 are similar in that they contain chelation of Ln³⁺ by both terpyridine and a nitrate anion and both structure types only contain cis-bridging by tetracyanoplatinate. All four structures contain Pt–Pt interactions in the form of dimeric units.

Abstract  

Two new thiostannates [M(tepa)]₂(μ-Sn₂S₆) (tepa = tetraethylenepentamine, M = Fe²⁺ 1 and Co²⁺ 2) were prepared by solvothermal method. Compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural. Both the compounds crystallize in the tetragonal system, space group I41/a (no. 88) with the crystal parameters of 1: a = 25.683(2) ?, b = 25.683(2) ?, c = 9.9860(9) ?, V = 6,586.7(11) ?³, Z = 8, and 2: a = 25.742(3) ?, b = 25.742(3) ?, c = 9.8977(12) ?, V = 6,558.5(14) ?³, Z = 8. The Sn₂S₆ ⁴⁻ anion acts as a bidentate bridging ligand connecting two transition metal complex cations by trans terminal S atoms to form neutral centrosymmetric [M(tepa)]₂(μ-Sn₂S₆) moieties.
