Solvothermal Synthesis and Structure Studies of a Mixed-valence Oxochloromolybdenum Complex

Emerald green crystals of a new mixed-valence oxochloromolybdenum complex,Mo(OH)2(2,2′-bipy)Cl2.[MoO(2,2′-bipy)Cl3]2, were obtained in an attempt to synthesize the Mo-S cluster compounds under solvothermal conditions. The title compound was characterized by EPR and X-ray single-crystal diffraction techniques. Crystallographic data: orthorhombic, space group Fdd2, a = 12.684(1), b = 21.518(2), c = 29.096(3)A, Mr = 1103.97, V= 7941(1)A^3, Z= 8, Dc =1.843 g/cm^3,μ= 1.514 mm^-1, F(000) = 4304, R = 0.0654 and wR = 0.1544 for 1944 observed reflections with 1 ≥/ 2σ(I). The compound consists of two different neutral molecules, Mo^IV-(OH)2(2,2′-bipy)Cl2 and MoVO(2,2′-bipy)Cl3. Both Mo^IV and Mo^V ions are in a distorted octahedral environment. The Mo(1)^IV atom is surrounded by two Cl^- ions and two O atoms from OH^- and two N atoms from a 2,2′-bipy ligand. The Mo(2) atom is surrounded by three Cl^- ions, one O^2- anion and two N atoms from another 2,2“-bipy ligand. The bipyridine occupies two cis-equatorial sites, while the Cl^- ions are located at the axial and equatorial positions.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Mononuclear Copper(Ⅱ)Complex with 4,4',6,6'-Tetrabromo-2,2'-[ethylenedioxybis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenol

A new mononuclear Cu(Ⅱ)complex,[Cu(L)](H2L=4,4',6,6'tetrabromo-2,2'-[ethylenedioxybis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenol),has been synthesized and structurally characteri-zed.X-ray crystal stucture of the complex reveals that the Cu(Ⅱ)ion is four-coordinated by two oxygen atoms and two nitrogen atoms from L2-unit.Crystallographic data:monoclinic,space group P21/n with a=14.076(2),b=6.9801(14),c=19.858(2)(A),β=107.613(2)°,C16H10Br4CuN2O4,Mr =677.44,V=1859.6(5)(A)3,Dc=2.420 g/cm3,μ=9.796 mm-1,F(000)=1284,Z=4,the final R=0.0516 and wR=0.0938 for 1879 observed reflections with I＞20(I).The dihedral angel between the two coordination planes of Cu(1)-N(2)-O(4)and Cu(1)-N(1)-O(3))is 30.08(6)°.
