Structure,solvatochromism, and solvation of trans-[CoIII(cyclam)(NCS)2](NCS) and the structure of [CoII(Me4cyclam) (NCS)]2[Co(NCS)4]MeOH

The structures of trans-[CoIII(cyclam)(NCS)2](NCS) and of [CoII(Me4cyclam)(NCS)]2[Co(NCS)4]·MeOH have been established by X-ray diffraction methods. The solvatochromic behavior of the trans-[Co(cyclam)(NCS)2]+ cation in several binary aqueous solvent mixtures is reported. Transfer chemical potentials for this complex from H2O into MeOH-H2O mixtures have been established from solubility measurements on its thiocyanate salt. The solvatochromic behavior of this cation is discussed in the context of other solvatochromic inorganic complexes; its transfer chemical potentials are discussed in relation to those of other cobalt(III) complexes.     

Darstellung und Kristallstruktur von (n-Bu4N)3[Ir(NCS)(SCN)5]

Preparation and Crystal Structure of (n-Bu₄N)₃[Ir(NCS)(SCN)₅] The evaporated ethanolic extrakt of the reaction product of K₃[IrCl₆] and HNO₃, refluxed with an aqueous KSCN solution yields a mixture of the linkage isomers [Ir(NCS)_n(SCN)_6?-n]^3?, n = 0? 2, and small amounts of linkage isomeric chloropentarhodanoiridates(III), from which [Ir(NCS)(SCN)₅]^3? has been isolated by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. The X-Ray structure determination on a single crystal of (n-Bu₄N)₃[Ir(NCS)(SCN)₅] (monoclinic, space group P 2₁/a, a = 17.513(5), b = 32.607(5), c = 23.661(5) Å, β = 94.757(5)°, Z = 8) confirms the existance of a heteroleptic hexakis(thiocyanato(N)-thiocyanato(S))iridate(III) with an Ir? N distance of 2.03 Å and Ir? S bond lengths between 2.29 and 2.38 Å. The SCN groups with angles between 166 and 175° are nearly linear with Ir? S? C angles from 99.9 to 109.4°. The Ir? N? C angles of the two crystallographic independent anions are 166 and 174°.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of a [Ni(II)(TCNE)(NCMe)2-delta][BF4] magnet (Tc = 40 K)

The reaction of (NBu4)(TCNE) (TCNE = tetracyanoethylene) and [Ni(NCMe)6][BF4]2 in CH2Cl2 forms layered [Ni(TCNE)(MeCN)2-delta][BF4], a magnet ( Tc = 40 K) with a ferromagnetic interaction within Ni-mu 4-[TCNE](*-) layers, and a new general route to the preparation of [M(TCNE)(NCMe)2][anion] magnets has been identified.     

Modeling spin interactions in a cyclic trimer and a cuboidal Co4O4 core with Co(II) in tetrahedral and octahedral environments

The X-ray crystallographic structures, the magnetic susceptibilities from 2 to 300 K, and a theoretical analysis of the magnetism for a triangular and a tetranuclear molecule consisting of linked high-spin cobalt(II) centers are described. The interpretation of the magnetic data for the triangular compound [Co(depa)Cl](3) (depa is the anion of 2,2'-(bis-4-ethylpyridyl)amine), which has tetrahedrally coordinated Co(2+) ions, entails isotropic antiferromagnetic exchange interaction and antisymmetric exchange acting within the two low-lying spin doublets. Two strong isotropic ferromagnetic interactions have been modeled in the cuboidal compound Co(4)(DPM)(4)(CH(3)O)(4)(CH(3)OH)(4) (DPM represents the anion of dipivaloylmethane), which has octahedral coordination, and the system can be approximately considered as two weakly coupled S = 3 species.     

Neutron diffraction study of [H(4)Co(4)(C(5)Me(4)Et)(4)], a tetrahedral metal cluster complex with four face-bridging hydride ligands

A single-crystal neutron diffraction analysis of the cluster complex [H(4)Co(4)(C(5)Me(4)Et)(4)] was carried out on the new quasi-Laue diffractometer VIVALDI at the Institut Laue-Langevin. The structure consists of four face-bridging hydrides attached to a tetrahedral cobalt metal core. Average distances and angles in the core of the molecule are as follows: Co-Co = 2.571(8), Co-C = 2.158(6), Co-H = 1.749(7), H.H = 2.366(9) A; Co-H-Co = 94.6(3), H-Co-H = 85.1(3) degrees. The hydride ligands are located off the Co-Co-Co planes by an average distance of 0.923(8) A. It is suggested that the dimensions of the HCo(3) fragments found in this molecule provide reasonable estimates for analogous distances and angles associated with chemisorbed H atoms situated on the 3-fold hollows of a cobalt surface. Crystallographic details: space group P2(1)/a (monoclinic); a = 21.979(2), b = 10.924(1), c = 34.406(2) A; beta = 90.81(1) degrees; Z = 8. Final agreement factor: R(F) = 0.099 for 3779 reflections [I > 2sigma(I)] collected at 20 K.     

Solid-state transformation of [Co(NCS)2(pyridine)4] into [Co(NCS)2(pyridine)2]n: from Curie-Weiss paramagnetism to single chain magnetic behaviour

Reaction of Co(NCS)(2) with pyridine (pyr) in aqueous solution at room temperature leads to the formation of the pyridine-rich 1:4 compound of composition [Co(NCS)(2)(pyridine)(4)] (1) reported recently. On heating, the pyridine-rich 1:4 compound transforms into its corresponding pyridine-deficient 1:2 compound of composition [Co(NCS)(2)(pyridine)(2)](n) (2), which decomposes on further heating. In the crystal structure of compound 2 the metal cations are coordinated by four N-atoms of two pyridine ligands and two N-bonded thiocyanato anions, each in mutually trans orientation, and by two S-atoms of two adjacent thiocyanato anions in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The thiocyanato anions bridge the metal cations forming one-dimensional polymeric chains. IR spectroscopic investigations on the pyridine-deficient 1:2 compound prepared in thermal decomposition are in accordance with bridging thiocyanato anions. Magnetic measurements of the pyridine-rich 1:4 compound and pyridine-deficient 1:2 compound reveal different behaviour with Curie-Weiss paramagnetism for compound 1 and single chain magnetic behaviour for compound 2, with a Mydosh-parameter φ = 0.12 and an effective energy barrier (-U(eff)/k(B)) of 62.5 K for the spin relaxation.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Dinuclear Cobalt(II) Complex [Co2(1H-benzimidazole)4(1,4-bdoa)2]

1 INTRODUCTION In the last decades, metal carboxylate complexes have become a particularly important subject in mo- dern coordination chemistry owing to their fascina- ting structural diversity and potential applications as functional materials[1～3]. The generation of supramo- lecular architectures relies on the combination of se- veral factors, such as the coordination geometry of metals, bonding of the ligands and reaction condi- tions[4, 5].

[Fe(TCNE)(NCMe)2][FeCl4] is isolated from the reaction of TCNE and FeCl2(NCMe)2 and orders as a ferrimagnet below 90 K and is the initial member of a new class of magnets. It is the first metal-TCNE magnet with direct bonding between metal ion and [TCNE]*- whose structure has been determined, and it possesses a novel planar mu4-[TCNE]*- spin coupling unit bonded to four FeII's, with an axial pair of MeCNs. The [FeIIICl4]- anion occupies sites between the [FeII(TCNE*-)(NCMe)2]+ layers. [Fe(TCNE)(NCMe)2][FeCl4] has a coercive field of 1730 Oe and a remnant magnetization of 7500 emuK/mol at 50 K.
