L is the dianion of diethyl 5,6,7,8,15,16-hexahydro-6,7-dioxodibenzo[1,4,8,11]-tetraazacyclotetradecine-13,18-dicarboxylate, and dca is the dicyanamide. The structure of 1 or 3 consists of oxamido-bridged trinuclear [MIICuII2] molecules (for 1, M is the manganese(II) ion, and for 3, M is the zinc(II) ion). Both of them consist of 1D supramolecuar chains via pi-pi interactions. The structure of 2 also has the oxamido-bridged trinuclear [MnIICuII2] structure units and consists of 2D layers formed by the linkage of copper(II) and manganese(II) atoms via the oxamido and mu1, 5-dca bridges. Complex 4 consists of oxamido-bridged tetranuclear [FeII2CuII2] molecules and arranges in 1D chains. Different co-ligands may result in different structures in this macrocyclic oxamide system. The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements (2-300 K) of 1 and 2 both show the pronounced antiferromagnetic interactions between the copper(II) and manganese(II) ions.

The three compounds are structurally isomorphous and consist of alternating Mn(III)-Schiff base cations and [M(bpmb)(CN)₂]⁻ anions, generating cyanide-bridged nanosized dodecanuclear macrocyclic structures with an approximate diameter of 2 nm. The study of the magnetic properties of complex 1 reveals an antiferromagnetic interaction between the Cr(III) and Mn(III) ions through the cyanide bridges. A best-fit to the magnetic susceptibility of the complex leads to a magnetic coupling constant of J _CrMn = −2.65(6) cm⁻¹ on the basis of a one-dimensional alternating chain model with the Hamiltonian $ H = - J_{CrMn} \sum\limits_{i = 0}^N {S_i \cdot S_{i + 1} } $ H = - J_{CrMn} \sum\limits_{i = 0}^N {S_i \cdot S_{i + 1} } .

Syntheses and crystal structures of SmIII and ThIV complexes with macrocyclic cavitand cucurbituril

Slow evaporation of solutions of samarium nitrate and thorium chloride in hydrochloric acid containing the macrocyclic cavitand cucurbituril (C₃₆H₃₆N₂₄O₁₂) afforded crystals of the [{Sm(H₂O)₅(NO₃)}₂(C₃₆H₃₆N₂₄O₁₂)](NO₃)₄·6.5H₂O and [{Th(H₂O)₅Cl}₂(C₃₆H₃₆N₂₄O₁₂)]Cl₆·13H₂O complexes, respectively. The [Sm(C₃₆H₃₆N₂₄O₁₂)(H₂O)₅(SO₄)][Sm(H₂O)₅(SO₄)₂]·17H₂O complex was generated upon heating (130 °C) of a mixture of samarium sulfate, cucurbituril, and water in a sealed tube. X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated that the metal atoms in these complexes are bound to the portal oxygen atoms of the cucurbituril molecules. In addition, the portal oxygen atoms of cucurbituril are linked to the coordinated H₂O molecules via hydrogen bonds.     

Synthesis, crystal structures and DNA-binding properties of dinuclear complexes with macrocyclic ligands

Two symmetrical macrocyclic dinuclear complexes, [Cu₂L¹(ClO₄)₂(H₂O)₂][Cu₂L¹(H₂O)₂] (ClO₄)₂ (1) and [Cu₂L²(ClO₄)₂] (2), (where H₂L¹ and H₂L² are the [2?+?2] condensation products of 1,3-diaminopropane with 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol and 2,6-diformyl-4-flurophenol, respectively), have been synthesized and characterized. The electronic and magnetic properties of the complexes were studied by cyclic voltammetry and magnetic susceptibility. There are strong antiferromagnetic couplings between the two copper(II) centers in both complexes. The strongly electron-withdrawing fluorine groups in H₂L² weaken the antiferromagnetic exchange, but make the metal centers more easily reduced than its analog H₂L¹. The interactions of the complexes with calf thymus DNA were studied by UV?CVis and CD spectroscopic techniques.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,and magnetic properties of a series of Fe2Ln complexes

A family of phenoxo-bridged heterometallic Schiff base trinuclear complexes, [Fe₂LnL₂(C₃H₇COO)(H₂O)]·CH₃OH·CH₃CN·H₂O (Ln = Sm, 1; Gd, 2; Tb, 3; Dy, 4) is reported. Those complexes were afforded by “one-pot” reaction of a polydentate Schiff base ligand 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-phenylsalicylaldimine (H₂L) with Fe(NO₃)₃·9H₂O, Ln(NO₃)₃·6H₂O and sodium butyrate (C₃H₇COONa) in a mixture of methanol and acetonitrile in the presence of triethylamine as a base. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the structures of the four complexes are isomorphic. In each complex, two anionic [FeL₂]^? units coordinate to the central lanthanide ion as a tetradentate ligand using its four phenoxo oxygens, forming a two-blade propeller-like molecular shape. Magnetic properties of 1–4 were investigated using variable temperature magnetic susceptibility, and weak ferromagnetic exchange between the Fe^III and Ln^III ions has been established for the Gd derivative. The Tb and Dy complexes show no evidence of slow relaxation behavior above 2.0 K.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,magnetic and luminescent properties of lanthanide complexes with nitronyl nitroxide radical as ligand

Four lanthanide-nitronyl nitroxide radical complexes, [Ln(hfac)₃(NIT-3Methien)₂] (Ln = Pr (1), Tb (2), Dy (3), Ho (4); hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate; NIT-3Methien = 2-(3-methylthiophene)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide), have been synthesized, and structurally and magnetically characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that 1–4 have similar mononuclear tri-spin structures in which central Ln(III) ions are eight coordinate by two NIT-3Methien radicals and three hfac coligands. The magnetic studies indicate that there are antiferromagnetic interactions between Ln(III) ions and radicals in 1, 2, and 4, while ferromagnetic interactions are present in 3. The luminescence properties of 2 and 3 were studied.     

Syntheses, molecular and supramolecular structures, electrochemistry and magnetic properties of two macrocyclic dinickel(II) complexes

The work in this paper reports syntheses, molecular and supramolecular structures, electrochemistry and magnetic properties of two diphenoxo-bridged dinickel(II) compounds [Ni^II₂L(N₃)₂(H₂O)₂]·CH₃CN (1) and [Ni^II₂L(N₃)₂(H₂O)] (2), where H₂L is the tetraimino diphenolate macrocyclic ligand, obtained on [2 + 2] condensation of 4-methyl-2,6-diformylphenol and 2,2′-dimethyl-1,3-diaminopropane. Brown colored compound 1 and green colored compound 2 are produced from the same reaction mixture as a function of temperature; 1 is formed from the reaction mixture in acetonitrile at low temperature (ca. 5 °C), while 2 is formed on heating the reaction mixture in acetonitrile. Crystals of compounds 1 and 2 are monoclinic (space group P2₁/c) and orthorhombic (space group P2₁2₁2₁), respectively. Analyses of the crystal packing of the crystalline phases reveal that two-dimensional topologies are resulted in both 1 and 2 due to hydrogen bonding interactions. Variable-temperature (2-300 K) magnetic susceptibility measurements of the two compounds reveal that the metal centers in both the complexes are coupled by moderate antiferromagnetic interactions with J values (H = -2JS₁·S₂) −18.8 and −34.2 cm⁻¹ for 1 and 2, respectively. Electrochemical analyses of 2 reveal that this compound exhibits two-step reduction couples at E_½ = −977 and −1155 mV.     

Ion-pair complexes with strong near infrared absorbance: Syntheses,crystal structures and spectroscopic properties

Three ion-pair complexes, [4-NH₂-Py]₂[M(mnt)₂] (4-NH₂-Py¹⁺ = 4-amino-pyridinium; mnt^2? = maleonitriledithiolate; M = Pt (1), Pd (2) or Ni (3)), have been synthesized and characterized. In the crystal of 1, the strong H-bonding interaction was found from the protonated N-atom of pyridinium to the CN group of [Pt(mnt)₂]^2? together with a weak Pt…H interaction between the anion and the cation. The crystals of 2 and 3 are isostructural with very similar lattice parameters and packing structures, which are distinct from the crystal of 1. Two kinds of strong H-bonding interactions are observed in the crystals of 2 and 3 between the CN groups of [M(mnt)₂]^2? anion and the protonated N-atom of 4-NH₂-Py¹⁺ cation as well as the CN groups of [M(mnt)₂]^2? anion and the amino group of 4-NH₂-Py¹⁺ cation. Complex 1 shows an intense near-IR absorbance in acetonitrile and solid state, such an absorption band is probably assigned to IPCT transition as well as a trace amount of [Pt(mnt)₂]^1? species; complex 3 possesses a weak near-IR absorption band which can be attributed to the mixture of d–d transition in [Ni(mnt)₂]^2? and IPCT transition as well as a trace amount of [Ni(mnt)₂]^1? species.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that two complexes are isostructural with mononuclear tri-spin structure, in which the metal ions are eight-coordinated in distorted dodecahedron geometry. The nitronyl nitroxide radicals act as monodentate ligands towards Ln(Hfac)₃ unit through the oxygen atom of the nitronyl nitroxide group. Magnetic studies reveal that the Gd-coordinated nitroxide interaction is ferromagnetic.

The data reveal strong antiferromagnetic interactions between two Cu(II) ions in the macrocyclic unit and ferromagnetic interaction between the Cu(II) ions in two adjacent macrocyclic units for 1 and 2.     

Two manganese(II) complexes based on anthracene-9-carboxylate: Syntheses,crystal structures,and magnetic properties

Abstract  To explore the influence of the anthracene ring skeleton, with a large conjugated π-system, on the structures and properties of its complexes, two Mn^II complexes with anthracene-9-carboxylate ligand were synthesized and structurally characterized: {[Mn(L)₂(H₂O)₂](H₂O)}_∞ (1) and [Mn₂(L)₄(phen)₂(μ-H₂O)](CH₃OH) (2) (L = anthracene-9-carboxylate and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). Complex (1) has a one-dimensional (1D) chain structure that is further assembled to form a two-dimensional (2D) sheet, and then an overall three-dimensional (3D) network by π···π stacking and/or C–H···π interactions. Complex (2) makes a dinuclear structure by incorporating the chelating phen ligand, which is further interlinked via inter-molecular π···π stacking and C–H···π interactions to generate a higher-dimensional supramolecular network along the different crystallographic directions. The results reveal that the bulky anthracene ring skeleton in L, by virtue of intra- and/or inter-molecular π···π stacking and C–H···π interactions, plays an important role in the formation of complexes (1) and (2). The magnetic properties of (1) and (2) were further investigated. As expected, the very long inter-metallic separations result in weak magnetic coupling, with the corresponding coupling constant values of J = −10 cm⁻¹ for (1) and J = −2.46 cm⁻¹ for (2). Graphical abstract  The constructions of two new Mn^II complexes comprising 1D chain (1) and dinuclear subunit (2) structures have been successfully achieved by using a bulky anthracene-9-carboxylic acid (HL), together with incorporating the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline as a co-ligand for (2). The result reveals that the bulky anthracene ring skeleton of HL, by virtue of intra- and/or inter-molecular π···π stacking and C–H···π interactions, plays an important role in the formation of the supramolecular architectures of (1) and (2). Moreover, magnetic properties of the complexes have been investigated.
