Formation of lithium,sodium and potassium complexes with 1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol (taci)

Single crystals of (1,3‐diamino‐5‐azaniumyl‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol‐κ³O²,O⁴,O⁶)(1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol‐κ³O²,O⁴,O⁶)lithium(I) diiodide dihydrate, [Li(C₆H₁₆N₃O₃)(C₆H₁₅N₃O₃)]I₂·2H₂O or [Li(Htaci)(taci)]I₂·2H₂O (taci is 1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol), (I), bis(1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol‐κ³O²,O⁴,O⁶)sodium(I) iodide, [Na(C₆H₁₅N₃O₃)₂]I or [Na(taci)₂]I, (II), and bis(1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol‐κ³O²,O⁴,O⁶)potassium(I) iodide, [K(C₆H₁₅N₃O₃)₂]I or [K(taci)₂]I, (III), were grown by diffusion of MeOH into aqueous solutions of the complexes. The structures of the Na and K complexes are isotypic. In all three complexes, the taci ligands adopt a chair conformation with axial hydroxy groups, and the metal cations exhibit exclusive O‐atom coordination. The six O atoms of the resulting MO₆ unit define a centrosymmetric trigonal antiprism with approximate D_3d symmetry. The interligand O...O distances increase significantly in the order Li < Na < K. The structure of (I) exhibits a complex three‐dimensional network of R—NH₂—H...NH₂—R, R—O—H...NH₂—R and R—O—H...O(H)—H...NH₂—R hydrogen bonds. The structures of the Na and K complexes consist of a stack of layers, in which each taci ligand is bonded to three neighbours via pairwise O—H...NH₂ interactions between vicinal HO—CH—CH—NH₂ groups.     

Hydrogen bonding in polyamino‐polyalcohols: a monohydrated cocrystal of 1,3‐diamino‐5‐azaniumyl‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol iodide and 1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol

In the title monohydrated cocrystal, namely 1,3‐diamino‐5‐azaniumyl‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol iodide–1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol–water (1/1/1), C₆H₁₆N₃O₃⁺·I⁻·C₆H₁₅N₃O₃·H₂O, the neutral 1,3,5‐triamino‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol (taci) molecule and the monoprotonated 1,3‐diamino‐5‐azaniumyl‐1,3,5‐trideoxy‐cis‐inositol cation (Htaci⁺) both adopt a chair conformation, with the three O atoms in axial and the three N atoms in equatorial positions. The cation, but not the neutral taci unit, exhibits intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonding. The entire structure is stabilized by a complex three‐dimensional network of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The neutral taci entities and the Htaci⁺ cations are each aligned into chains along [001]. In these chains, two O—H...N interactions generate a ten‐membered ring as the predominant structural motif. The rings consist of vicinal 2‐amino‐1‐hydroxyethylene units of neighbouring molecules, which are paired via centres of inversion. The chains are interconnected into undulating layers parallel to the ac plane, and the layers are further held together by O—H...N hydrogen bonds and additional interactions with the iodide counter‐anions and solvent water molecules.

In the title compound, [Nd₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂(C₂O₄)(H₂O)₂]_n, the flexible succinate anion assumes the gauche conformation and bridges the nine‐coordinate Nd atoms to generate two‐dimensional layers parallel to (010). The coordination polymer layers are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by the rigid oxalate ligands. The oxalate ions are located on a center of inversion.     

Poly[bis(μ4‐benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylato)di‐μ3‐isonicotinato‐dilanthanum(III)]

The La centres are linked by the carboxylate groups of isonicotinate (IN⁻) and benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylate (BDC²⁻) ligands to form La–carboxylate chains, which are further expanded into a three‐dimensional framework with nanometre‐sized channels by La—N bonds. In the construction of the resultant architecture, in tricapped trigonal prismatic coordination geometries by eight carboxylate O atoms and one pyridyl N atom, while the BDC ligands link to four different cations each, displaying penta‐ and heptadentate chelating–bridging modes, respectively.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Hydrogen Bonding of μ‐Hydroxo‐μ‐peroxo‐bis[bis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III)] Squarate

Black‐brown needle‐shaped single crystals of [Co₂(en)₄(O₂)(OH)][C₄O₄]_1.5 · 4H₂O (en = ethylenediamine) were prepared in aqueous solution at room temperature [space group P$\bar{1}$ (no.2) with a = 800.20(8), b = 1225.48(7), c = 1403.84(9) pm, α = 100.282(5), β = 94.515(7), and γ = 95.596(6)°]. The Co³⁺ cations [Co(1), Co(2)] are coordinated in an octahedral manner by four nitrogen atoms stemming from the ethylenediamine molecules and two oxygen atoms each from a hydroxo group and a peroxo group, respectively. Both Co³⁺ coordination polyhedra are connected by a common corner and by the peroxo group leading to the dinuclear [(en)₂Co(O₂)(OH)Co(en)₂]³⁺ cation. The squarate dianions, not bonded to Co³⁺, and the [(en)₂Co(O₂)(OH)Co(en)₂]³⁺ cations are linked by hydrogen bonds forming a three‐dimensional supramolecular network containing water molecules. Magnetic measurements revealed a diamagnetic behavior indicating a low‐spin electron configuration of Co³⁺. The UV/Vis spectra show two LMCT bands [π*(O₂^2–) → d_σ*(Co³⁺)] at 274 and 368 nm and the d–d transition (¹A_1g → ¹T_1g) at 542 nm. Thermoanalytical investigations in air show that the compound is stable up to 120 °C. Subsequent decomposition processes to cobalt oxide are finished at 460 °C.     

Bis[μ3‐1,8‐bis(triisopropylsilylamido)naphthalene]bis(tetrahydrofuran)di‐μ3‐oxido‐dimanganese(III)disodium

The solid‐state structure of the title compound, [Na₂Mn₂(C₃₂H₅₆N₂OSi₂)₂O₂] or [1,8‐C₁₀H₆(NSiⁱPr₃)₂Mn(μ₃‐O)Na(THF)]₂, which lies across a crystallographic twofold axis, exhibits a central [Mn₂O₂Na₂]⁴⁺ core, with two oxide groups, each triply bridging between the two Mn^III ions and an Na⁺ ion. Additional coordination is provided to each Mn^III centre by a 1,8‐C₁₀H₆(NSiⁱPr₃)₂ [1,8‐bis(triisopropylsilylamido)naphthalene] ligand and to the Na⁺ centres by a tetrahydrofuran molecule. The presence of an additional Na...H—C agostic interaction potentially contributes to the distortion around the bridging oxide group.     

catena‐Poly[[bis[pentaaquaerbium(III)]‐μ‐benzenehexacarboxylato] tetrahydrate]

The title compound is composed of one‐dimensional polymeric {[Er₂(C₁₂O₁₂)(H₂O)₁₀]·4H₂O}_n chains containing Er in a slightly distorted antiprismatic eightfold coordination. The benzene­hexa­carboxyl­ate ion is located about an inversion centre. Water mol­ecules of crystallization, linked by hydrogen bonding to water mol­ecules of the rare earth coordination spheres or the carboxyl­ate groups of the organic ligands, fill the space generated by the packing of the separated chains.     

catena‐Poly[[bis(μ‐2‐sulfonatobenzoato)bis[triaquagadolinium(III)]]‐μ‐oxalato]

The asymmetric unit of the title coordination polymer, [Gd₂(C₇H₄O₅S)₂(C₂O₄)(H₂O)₆]_n or [Gd(2‐SB)(ox)_0.5(H₂O)₃]_2n (2‐SB is 2‐sulfonatobenzoate and ox is oxalate), (I), consists of one Gd^III ion, one 2‐SB anion, three coordinated water molecules and one half of an ox ligand. The ox ligand is located on a crystallographic inversion centre. The Gd^III centre shows a distorted tricapped trigonal–prismatic coordination formed by nine O atoms from two 2‐SB anions, one ox ligand and three coordinated water molecules. The carboxylate and sulfonate groups of the 2‐SB anions adopt μ₂‐η¹:η² and μ₁‐η⁰:η⁰:η¹ coordination modes to link two Gd^III ions, generating a centrosymmetric binuclear [Gd₂(2‐SB)₂(H₂O)₆]²⁻ subunit. The ox ligand acts as a bridge, linking the binuclear [Gd₂(2‐SB)₂(H₂O)₆]²⁻ subunits into a one‐dimensional chain structure parallel to the b axis. Furthermore, extensive O—H...O hydrogen bonds connect the chains into a three‐dimensional supramolecular architecture.     

Poly[aqua(μ3‐benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylato)bis(μ3‐hydroxido)bis(μ2‐isonicotinato)dierbium(III) monohydrate] and the thulium analogue

The two isomorphous lanthanide coordination polymers, {[Ln₂(C₆H₄NO₂)₂(C₈H₄O₄)(OH)₂(H₂O)]·H₂O}_n (Ln = Er and Tm), contain two crystallographically independent Ln ions which are both eight‐coordinated by O atoms, but with quite different coordination environments. In both crystal structures, adjacent Ln atoms are bridged by μ₃‐OH groups and carboxylate groups of isonicotinate and benzene‐1,2‐dicarboxylate ligands, forming infinite chains in which the Er...Er and Tm...Tm distances are in the ranges 3.622 (3)–3.894 (4) and 3.599 (7)–3.873 (1) Å, respectively. Adjacent chains are further connected through hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions into a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework.

Hydroxonium hydrate tris(2,4,6‐triamino‐1,3,5‐triazin‐1‐ium) bis[bis(pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)manganate(II/III)] hydroxide pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylic acid solvate pentahydrate

For charge balance in the title compound, (H₅O₂)(C₃H₇N₆)₃[Mn(C₇H₃NO₄)₂]₂(OH)·C₇H₅NO₄·5H₂O, it is assumed that the metal atom site is disordered Mn^II/Mn^III, probably due to partial air oxidation of the starting Mn^II species. The formula unit of the complex contains a hydroxonium hydrate cation, H₅O₂⁺, also known as the Zundel cation, with twofold symmetry. The O...O [2.445 (10) Å] and O...H distances [1.24 (2) Å] in the H₅O₂⁺ cation indicate a strong hydrogen bond. In addition, there is a hydroxide ion that is disordered with respect to a twofold rotation axis. One of the melaminium groups and the pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylate (pydc) ligand also reside on crystallographic twofold axes. The coordination environment of the Mn ion is distorted octahedral. Three intermolecular C=O...π interactions are observed, with distances of 3.536 (4), 3.262 (4) and 3.750 (4) Å between carboxylate C=O groups and the centroids of the aromatic rings of pydc and melaminium. There are numerous O—H...O, O—H...N, N—H...O, N—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds. Most of the components of the structure are organized into one plane.     

Poly[hexaaquabis(μ4‐4‐carboxybenzenesulfonato)bis(μ3‐4‐carboxybenzenesulfonato)calcium(II)dipotassium(I)]

This study presents the coordination modes and crystal organization of a calcium–potassium coordination polymer, poly[hexaaquabis(μ₄‐4‐carboxybenzenesulfonato‐κ⁴O¹:O^1′:O^1′′:O⁴)bis(μ₃‐4‐carboxybenzenesulfonato‐κ²O¹:O^1′)calcium(II)dipotassium(I)], [CaK₂(C₇H₅O₅S)₄(H₂O)₆]_n, displaying a novel two‐dimensional framework. The potassium ion is seven‐coordinated by four sulfonate and one carboxyl O atom located on five different acid ligands, two of which are unique, and by two symmetry‐independent water O atoms. A pair of close potassium ions share two inversion‐related sulfonate O‐atom sites to form a dimeric K₂O₁₂ unit, which is extended into a one‐dimensional array along the a‐axis direction. The six‐coordinate Ca²⁺ ion occupies a special position () at (0, , ) and is surrounded by four sulfonate O atoms from two inversion‐related pairs of unique acid monoanions and by two O atoms from aqua ligands. The compound displays a layered structure, with K₂O₁₂ and CaO₆ polyhedra in the layers and aromatic linkers between the layers. The three‐dimensional scaffold is open, with nano‐sized channels along the c axis.     

Di‐μ‐chlorido‐bis[dichloridobis(methylamido‐κN)bis(methylamine‐κN)titanium(IV)]

The title compound, [Ti₂Cl₆(C₂H₆N)₂(C₂H₇N)₂], is a binuclear octahedral complex lying about an inversion centre. There are four different chloride environments, two terminal [Ti—Cl = 2.2847 (5) and 2.3371 (5) Å] and two bridging [Ti—Cl = 2.4414 (5) and 2.6759 (5) Å], with the Ti—Cl distances being strongly influenced by both the ligand trans to the chloride and whether or not the chloride anion is bridging between the two Ti^IV centres. The compound forms a two‐dimensional network in the solid state, with weak intermolecular C—H...Cl interactions giving rise to a planar network in the (10) plane.     

The bis(acetonitrile‐κN)bis[N,N‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine‐κ2P,P′]iron(II) tetrabromidoferrate(II) and μ‐oxido‐bis[tribromidoferrate(III)] complex salts

Orange crystals of bis(acetonitrile‐κN)bis[N,N‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine‐κ²P,P′]iron(II) tetrabromidoferrate(II), [Fe(CH₃CN)₂(C₂₆H₂₅NP₂)₂][FeBr₄], (I), and red crystals of bis(acetonitrile‐κN)bis[N,N‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine‐κ²P,P′]iron(II) μ‐oxido‐bis[tribromidoferrate(III)], [Fe(CH₃CN)₂(C₂₆H₂₅NP₂)₂][Fe₂Br₆O], (II), were obtained from the same solution after prolonged exposure to atmospheric oxygen, resulting in partial oxidation of the [FeBr₄]²⁻ anion to the [Br₃FeOFeBr₃]²⁻ anion. The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of three independent cations, one on a general position and two on inversion centres, with two anions, required to balance the charge, located on general positions. The asymmetric unit of (II) consists of two independent cations and two anions, all on special positions. The geometric parameters within the coordination environments of the cations do not differ significantly, with the major differences being in the orientation of the phenyl rings on the bidentate phosphane ligand. The ethyl substituent in the cation of (II) and the Br atoms in the anions of (II) are disordered. The P—Fe—P bite angles represent the smallest angles reported to date for octahedral Fe^II complexes containing bidentate phosphine ligands with MeCN in the axial positions, ranging from 70.82 (3) to 70.98 (4)°. The average Fe—Br bond distances of 2.46 (2) and 2.36 (2) Å in the [FeBr₄]²⁻ and [Br₃FeOFeBr₃]²⁻ anions, respectively, illustrate the differences in the Fe oxidation states.
