Treatment of L2 with the same metal salt in a molar ratio of 1:1 in methanol and further addition of a solution of PPh₃ in chloroform led to the complex [Cu( L2 )(PPh₃)₂Cl]·2.5CHCl₃ ( 2 ). The complexes and L1 were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as by X‐ray diffraction studies. In both complexes, the Schiff base ligand is coordinated to the copper ion through its sulfur atom. The other coordination sites around the copper ion are occupied by two triphenylphosphane molecules and one chloride ion. Therefore, each Cu^I ion is in a distorted tetrahedral environment.

Struktur und magnetische Eigenschaften von Bis{3‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazolium(1+)}pentafluoromanganat(III): (3‐atriazH)2[MnF5]

Structure and Magnetic Properties of Bis{3‐amino‐1,2,4‐triazolium(1+)}pentafluoromanganate(III): (3‐atriazH)₂[MnF₅] The crystal structure of (3‐atriazH)₂[MnF₅], space group P1, Z = 4, a = 8.007(1) Å, b = 11.390(1) Å, c = 12.788(1) Å, α = 85.19(1)°, β = 71.81(1)°, γ = 73.87(1)°, R = 0.034, is built by octahedral trans‐chain anions [MnF₅]^2–_∞ separated by the mono‐protonated organic amine cations. The [MnF₆] octahedra are strongly elongated along the chain axis (<Mn–F_ax> 2.135 Å, <Mn–F_eq> 1.842 Å), mainly due to the Jahn‐Teller effect, the chains are kinked with an average bridge angle Mn–F–Mn = 139.3°. Below 66 K the compound shows 1D‐antiferromagnetism with an exchange energy of J/k = –10.8 K. 3D ordering is observed at T_N = 9.0 K. In spite of the large inter‐chain separation of 8.2 Å a remarkable inter‐chain interaction with |J′/J| = 1.3 · 10^–5 is observed, mediated probably by H‐bonds. That as well as the less favourable D/J ratio of 0.25 excludes the existence of a Haldene phase possible for Mn³⁺ (S = 2).     

Three Ternary Rare Earth(III) Complexes Based on 3‐[(4,6‐Dimethyl‐2‐pyrimidinyl)thio]‐propanoic Acid and 1,10‐Phenanthroline: Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Antioxidant Activity

Three ternary rare earth [Nd^III ( 1 ), Sm^III ( 2 ) and Y^III ( 3 )] complexes based on 3‐[(4,6‐dimethyl‐2‐pyrimidinyl)thio]‐propanoic acid (HL) and 1,10‐phenanthroline (Phen) were synthesized and characterized by IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy, TGA, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The crystal structures showed that complexes 1 – 3 contain dinuclear rare earth units bridged by four propionate groups and are of general formula [REL₃(Phen)]₂ · nH₂O (for 1 and 2 : n = 2; for 3 : n = 0). All rare earth ions are nine‐coordinate with distorted mono‐capped square antiprismatic coordination polyhedra. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c with a = 16.241(7) Å, b = 16.095(7) Å, c = 19.169(6) Å, β = 121.48(2)°. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c with a = 16.187(5) Å, b = 16.045(4) Å, c = 19.001(4) Å, β = 120.956(18)°. Complex 3 crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 11.390(6) Å, b = 13.636(6) Å, c = 15.958(7) Å, α = 72.310(17)°, β = 77.548(15)°, γ = 78.288(16)°. The antioxidant activity test shows that all complexes own higher antioxidant activity than free ligands.     

Syntheses,and Crystal Structures of Indium Complexes with η2‐Piperidinyldithiocarbamate and η2‐Pyridine‐2‐Thionate Containing Ligands: Structures of [In(η2‐S2CNC5H10)3] and [In(η2‐pyS)3]

The η²‐thio‐indium complexes [In(η²‐thio)₃] (thio = S₂CNC₅H₁₀, 2 ; SNC₄H₄, (pyridine‐2‐thionate, pyS, 3 ) and [In(η²‐pyS)₂(η²‐acac)], 4 , (acac: acetylacetonate) are prepared by reacting the tris(η²‐acac)indium complex [In(η²‐acac)₃], 1 with HS₂CNC₅H₁₀, pySH, and pySH with ratios of 1:3, 1:3, and 1:2 in dichloromethane at room temperature, respectively. All of these complexes are identified by spectroscopic methods and complexes 2 and 3 are determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Crystal data for 2 : space group, C2/c with a = 13.5489(8) Å, b = 12.1821(7) Å, c = 16.0893(10) Å, β = 101.654(1)°, V = 2600.9(3) ų, and Z = 4. The structure was refined to R = 0.033 and Rw = 0.086; Crystal data for 3 : space group, P2₁ with a = 8.8064 (6) Å, b = 11.7047 (8) Å, c = 9.4046 (7) Å, β = 114.78 (1)°, V = 880.13(11) ų, and Z = 2. The structure was refined to R = 0.030 and Rw = 0.061. The geometry around the metal atom of the two complexes is a trigonal prismatic coordination. The piperidinyldithiocarbamate and pyridine‐2‐thionate ligands, respectively, coordinate to the indium metal center through the two sulfur atoms and one sulfur and one nitrogen atoms, respectively. The short C‐N bond length in the range of 1.322(4)–1.381(6) Å in 2 and C‐S bond length in the range of 1.715(2)–1.753(6) Å in 2 and 3 , respectively, indicate considerable partial double bond character.
