Synthesis,crystal structure and catalytic activity for H2O2 disproportionation of the manganese(II) coordination polymer {[Mn(O2C(CF2)8CO2)(phen)2]H2O}n (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline)

The title polymeric complex {[Mn(O₂C(CF₂)₈CO₂)(phen)₂]H₂O}_n was synthesized through the reaction of 1,10-phenanthroline, perfluorosebacic acid and MnCO₃ · H₂O. The molecular structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermal gravimetry, IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy and its catalytic activity has been studied. X-ray structure analysis shows that each Mn(II) ion is octahedrally coordinated by two bidentate phenanthroline ligands and the carboxylate oxygen atoms from two symmetry related perfluorosebacate ligands, which are coordinated in cisoid positions. The structure consists of polymeric chains, with the perfluorosebacato ligand bridging the Mn(II) ions in a monodentate fashion. Crystallographic characterization shows a supramolecular structure involving hydrogen bonds, π–π and π-ring interactions. The catalytic results indicated that the complex has reasonably good activity towards the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide into water and dioxygen in methanol and it does not exhibit saturation kinetics with the substrate. The initial reaction rates and their temperature and base dependencies were investigated by monitoring the dioxygen evolution. Kinetic studies revealed a first-order dependence on the catalyst concentration. Activation parameters have been calculated at 301 K.

Three-dimensional five-connected coordination polymer [M2(C3H2O4)2(H2O)2(μ2-hmt)]n with 46 topologies (M=Zn, Cu; hmt=hexamethylenetetramine)

Two novel three-dimensional five-connected coordination polymers [M₂(C₃H₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂(μ₂-hmt)]_n with 4⁴6⁶ topologies (M=Zn, Cu; hmt=hexamethylenetetramine) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, crystal structure, IR, thermal gravimetric analyses.

Metal ions have all octahedral geometry coordinated by four oxygen atoms from three malonates, one oxygen atom from a water molecule and one nitrogen atom of hmt ligand. Each malonate binds a metal ion with its two oxygen atoms in a chelating mode and connects to adjacent two metal ions with another two oxygen atoms to form an infinite wavy layer. The layers are bridged by μ₂-hmt molecules to form a three-dimensional framework with channels.

The result of thermal analysis indicates the complex [Tb(p-ClBA)₃(phen)]₂ is quite stable to heat. CCDC: 221921.     

Crystal structure and luminescence property of novel three-dimensional network of {Eu2(p-BDC)3(Phen)2(H2O)2}n

The single crystal of a supramolecule, {Eu₂(p-BDC)₃(Phen)₂(H₂O)₂}_n (p-BDC=1,4-benzenedicarboxylate), with characteristic luminescence of Eu³⁺ was obtained by means of soft chemistry. The crystal structure determination reveals that each Eu³⁺ ion is coordinated by five oxygen atoms of p-BDC anions, one oxygen atom from water molecule, and two nitrogen atoms of Phen, respectively, resulting in an eight-coordinated Eu³⁺ center and a distorted square antiprism coordination polyhedron. Four bridges, two carboxylates of μ₄-p-BDC and two of μ₃-p-BDC, connect two Eu atoms into a binuclear unit. Moreover, the μ₃-p-BDC integrates the binuclear building blocks at the direction of b axis and the μ₄-p-BDC polymerizes the structure roughly along the direction of the sum vector of axis b and c, respectively, forming two-dimensional layers. Hydrogen bonds between layers make the structure a three-dimensional network. The luminescence spectra measured under 77 K demonstrate the antenna effect of Phen and the ⁵D₁→⁵D₀ energy transfer path within Eu³⁺ ion. Both luminescence spectra and crystal structure lead to the conclusion that the local symmetry around the Eu³⁺ ion is C₁ and that more than one Eu³⁺ ion sites having slight environmental difference are present.

Second sphere coordination in fluoroanion binding: Synthesis, spectroscopic and X-ray structural study of [Co(phen)2CO3](Pfbz)·6H2O

To explore the anion receptor potential of [Co(phen)₂(CO)₃]⁺ for the pentafluorobenzoate ion, [Co(phen)₂(CO)₃](Pfbz)·6H₂O (where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and Pfbz = pentafluorobenzoate) was synthesized by reacting appropriate salts in aqueous medium.

In the crystal lattice, discrete ions [Co(phen)₂CO₃]⁺ are forming rectangular voids in which the Pfbz anions are entrapped. Crystal lattice is stabilized by electrostatic forces of attraction and hydrogen bonding interactions, i.e. O-H?O, C-H?O, and C-H?F, involving second sphere coordination besides π?π interactions.

Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal behavior of two hydrated forms of lanthanide phthalates Ln2(O2+C6H4-CO2)3(H2O) (Ln=Ce, Nd) and Nd2(O2C-C6H4-CO2)3(H2O)3

New hydrated lanthanide phthalates have been hydrothermally prepared with cerium and neodymium in different reaction media involving water or mixed water-ethanol solvent. The monohydrated Ln₂(1,2-bdc)₃(H₂O) (Ln=Ce or Nd) and dihydrated Nd₂(1,2-bdc)₃(H₂O)₂ forms have been characterized by single-crystal analysis. Their structures consist of infinite inorganic chains of lanthanide-centered polyhedra linked to each other through the phthalate ligands in order to generate mixed organic-inorganic layered structure. The two hydrated structures differ by the number of terminal water species attached to the lanthanide cations, which induce symmetry change from a triclinic (Nd₂(1,2-bdc)₃(H₂O)₂) to an orthorhombic (Nd₂(1,2-bdc)₃(H₂O)₂) cell for neodymium whereas the cerium-based phase only exists in the monohydrated form, with two distinct symmetries (orthorhombic or triclinic). Structural comparisons with the other members of the lanthanide phthalate series with identical chemical formula are also discussed. Thermal X-ray diffraction experiment indicates that the transformation from dihydrate form into the monohydrated form does not occur during a heating process.
