STRUCTURE OF PENTAAQUO PYROMEL DIZINE (Ⅱ)-DIHYDROUS [C_6H_2(COO)_4Zn_2(H_2O)_5]·2H_2O

Crystal and molecular structure of [C6H2(COO)4Zn2(H2O)5]·2H2O has been determined by X-ray diffraction technique, Mr = 507. 0,monoclinic,space group P21/n,a = 5. 925(1), 6 = 23. 613(9) ,c= 11. 790(5) A ,β= 96. 36 (3)°, V=1639. 3 (1. 0) A3,Z=4,DC = 2. 05g/cm3,λ=0. 71069 A,μ(MoKa) = 30. 9/cm-1,F(000) = 1024e. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier techniques and refined by least-squares method to a final conventional R value of 0. 055(Re = 0. 059)for 1557(I>3σ(I))reflections. Both atoms Zn(1) and Zn(2) are bridged by the Z,E-type of the car-boxyl group, in addition, Zn (1) is monodentate-bonded to the three remaining carboxyl and Zn(2) is bonded to five water molecules. The crystal structure shows a 2-dimensional polymeric network along(010)face. The Zn(l) -O distances are in the range of 1. 94~ 2. 01 A (average 1. 98 A ). The Zn(2) -O distances are in the range of 2. 06~2. 21 A (average 2. 12A).     

Layered Lanthanum Complex with 3-Nitrophthalic Acid Assembled via Hydrogen Bonds-Synthesis, Structure and Characterization of [LaL(HL)(H_2O)_3]_2·2H_2O (H_2L=3-NO_2C_6H_3(CO_2H)_2)

A new dinuclear centrosymmetric complex [LaL(HL)(H2O)3]2·2H2O (H2L = 3-nitro- phthalic acid, NPA) was synthesized in water/ethanol solution and characterized by X-ray diffraction, IR spectrum and TGA-DTA. The complex crystallizes in triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 8.1549(16), b = 8.8856(18), c = 15.277(3) , α = 100.93(3), β = 90.81(3), γ = 104.56(3)°, V = 1049.8(4) 3, Z = 1, μ = 2.125 mm-1, Dc = 1.994 g/cm3, R = 0.0259 and wR = 0.0679. Two 3-nitrophthalates(2-) coordinate with the La3+ ions in a bridging mode, and two monohydrogen- 3-nitrophthates(1-) and three waters in terminal ways, respectively. Each La3+ ion is nine- coordinated to exhibit a distorted tricapped trigonal prism coordination polyhedron. Both the coordinated and crystal waters are involved in the inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The dinuclear units are linked into a 2D network structure in the ab plane via intermolecular hydrogen bonds along the axes a and b. Two crystal waters fill each rhombic pore of the network. The networks are further packed along the c axis forming a layered supramolecular structure through the C–H…O weak forces between the adjacent sheets. TGA analysis shows the complex undergoes the loss of waters of crystallization and coordination and the decomposition of ligands sequentially.

The compound contains two different building units,[Pr2(BYBA)6(H2O)4] and [Pr2(BYBA)6(H2O)2]. It is noticeable that [Pr2(BYBA)6(H2O)4] is an isolated binuclear building block,in which the Pr3+ ion centers are both located in an eight-coordinated environment. However,in [Pr2(BYBA)6(H2O)2] the Pr3+ ion centers are located in a nine-coordinated environment and connected by BYBA ligands to form 1D chains.

Each molecule contains one [(o-NH2C6H4As)2Mo6O24]4- anion and four CN3H6+ cations. In the anion,six distorted MoO6 octahedra are connected with edges-sharing to form a six-membered Mo ring which is capped above and below by two o - aminophenylarsenic groups. There is half a molecule in an asymmetric unit. It is interesting that both phenyl planes are almost perpendicular to the plane of the Mo atoms. The structure of the anion is similar to that of [ (CH3 As)2Mo6O24]4-,[(n-C3H7As)2Mo6O24]4- or [(C6H5CH2As)2Mo6O24]4-. This is the first example of this type of compounds in which the As atom is directly connected to a substituted phenyl group.

X-Band EPR studies on the single crystals of both complex 1 and complex 2 have been carried out at room temperature, which revealed that complex 2 showed a perfect hyperfine structure of Cu whereas that of complex 1 could not be observed. The principal values and direction cosines of the principal axes of the g and A tensors were computed by a least-squares fitting procedure. The spin density of Cu(II) was estimated according to the principal values of the A tensors and compared well with the results calculated based on DFT method.
