Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Magnetic Behaviour of {[Co(dimb)2(H2O)2]·(NO3)2·(H2O)2}n

The title complex {[Co(dimb)₂(H₂O)₂]·(NO₃)₂·(H₂O)₂}_n ( 1 ) (dimb = 1,3‐di(imidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)‐5‐methylbenzene) has been hydrothermally synthesized by the reaction of dimb with Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O in aqueous solution. The cobalt(II) atoms are linked by bridging dimb ligands to form 2D corrugated and wavy networks containing Co₄(dimb)₄ macrocyclic motifs. Two neighboring independent layers interlinked each other in a parallel fashion to construct three‐dimensional structure by O–H···O, N–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonds. Magnetic measurement shows the weak antiferromagnetic interaction with a one‐dimensional chain model in the range of 5–300 K, with J of –0.68 cm⁻¹.     

Syntheses and Structural Characterization of Two Nitrilotriacetate Cobalt Complexes: [{CoK2(NTA)(Hmta)(H2O)3}NO3]n and [{Co(4,4′‐bpy)2(H2O)4}{Co2(NTA)2(4,4′‐bpy)(H2O)2}]

Two nitrilotriacetate cobalt complexes {[CoK₂(NTA)(Hmta)(H₂O)₃]NO₃}_n ( 1 ) and [{Co(4,4′‐bpy)₂(H₂O)₄}{Co₂(NTA)₂(4,4′‐bpy)(H₂O)₂}] ( 2 ) (NTA = nitrilotriacetate anion, Hmta = hexamethylenetetramine and 4,4′‐bpy = 4,4′‐bipyridine) were prepared and characterized by IR, elemental analysis and single crystal X‐ray diffraction study. The influence of the neutral ancillary ligands on the formation of the complexes with different structures in the Co‐NTA system was discussed. The coordination of NTA and Hmta to Co²⁺ ions only resulted in the formation of mononuclear [Co(NTA)(Hmta)]^? ions which are further connected by K⁺ ions and water molecules to form a three‐dimensional network. The use of 4,4′‐bpy as ancillary ligand in 2 led to the formation of separate mononuclear [Co(4,4′‐bpy)₂(H₂O)₄]²⁺ and dinuclear [Co₂(NTA)₂(4,4′‐bpy)(H₂O)₂]^2? which are further connected by hydrogen bonds to form a supramolecular three‐dimensional network. In these cases it seems to suggest that the addition of neutral ancillary ligand into the Co‐NTA system leads to the formation of lower dimensional structures when the contribution of alkali ions to the structural dimensionality is neglected.

Synthesis and Structure of Ln2(H4IO6)(I2O10)·H3O·5 H2O (Ln=Pr,Nd, Sm), a Lanthanide Periodate Diperiodate

By slow evaporation of solutions containing Ln(ClO₄)₃ (Ln=Pr, Nd, Sm), H₅IO₆ and an excess of HClO₄, crystals of the title compounds could be obtained. Their structures were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The compounds crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system, space group I2/a. They contain two types of periodate ions: octahedral H₄IO₆ groups and two crystallographically different I₂O₁₀ groups, which consist of two edge‐sharing octahedra. These anions coordinate to the cations as bridging groups yielding a three‐dimensional network. Together with some water of crystallization, a coordination number of 9 is achieved around the lanthanide ions with a tri‐capped trigonal prismatic geometry.

Orthotelluric Acid as Substitute for Crystal‐Water: Syntheses and Crystal Structure of the Co‐crystallate [Te(OH)6 · 2 Adenine · 4 H2O] and the Disodium Ditellurate(VI) Aggregate {[Te2O2(OH)6(ONa)2]2[NaOH · 12.5 H2O]}

Supramolecular aspects on Te(OH)₆ as substitute for crystal‐water in adenine hydrate complexes and the first disodium ditellurate(VI) are reported. The co‐crystallate [Te(OH)₆ · 2 adenine · 4 H₂O] ( 1 ) has been prepared in 41% yield from the 1 : 1 mixing of Te(OH)₆ with the nitrogenous base adenine. The adduct of infinite stacks of adenine molecules, Te(OH)₆ and water not only proves that Te(OH)₆ mimicks the role of water in the related hydrate adenine · 3 H₂O but also shows that the inclusion of Te(OH)₆ raises the number of HO–H and N–HO contacts and therefore increases the distance between the adenine rings to 3.31 Å in 1 in comparison to that in adenine trihydrate (3.22 Å). Additionally, the disodium ditellurate(VI) aggregate {[Te₂(O)₂(OH)₆(ONa)₂]₂ [NaOH · 12.5 H₂O]} ( 2 ) resulted from the reaction of 1 with 2 molar equivalents of aqueous NaOH. Dinuclear 2 represents the first X‐ray diffraction characterized example of a sodium tellurate(VI) constructed from [Te₂O₄(OH)₆]^2– dianions.

The compounds are structurally diverse and the coordination polymer obtained from copper show significant copper–copper interaction while the manganese coordination polymer shows Mn–N_amino bond.     

Kristallstruktur,Infrarot‐ und Ramanspektren von Kupfertrihydrogenperiodatmonohydrat,CuH3IO6 · H2O

Crystal Structure, Infrared and Raman Spectra of Copper Trihydrogenperiodate Monohydrate, CuH₃IO₆ · H₂O The hitherto unknown compound CuH₃IO₆ · H₂O was studied by X‐ray, IR‐ and Raman spectroscopic methods. The crystal structure was determined by X‐ray single‐crystal studies (space group P2₁2₁2₁, Z = 4, a = 532.60(10), b = 624.00(10), c = 1570.8(3) pm, R1 = 1.85%, 1559 unique reflections (I > 2σ(I))). Isolated, meridionally configurated H₃IO₆^2– ions are coordinated to the copper ions forming double‐ropes in [100]. These ropes are connected in [010] and [001] by hydrogen bonds. The copper ions possess a square pyramidal co‐ordination with the hydrate H₂O on top. The infrared and Raman spectra as well as group theoretical treatment are presented and discussed with respect to the strength of the hydrogen bonds and the co‐ordination of the CuO₅₍₊₁₎ polyhedra and the H₃IO₆^2– ions at the C₁ lattice sites. The hydrogen bonds of the H₂O molecules and H₃IO₆^2– ions (HO–H…O–IO₅H₃ and H₂IO₅O–H…O–IO₅H₃) greatly differ in strength, as shown from both the respective O…O distances: 282.6 and 298.6 pm (H₂O), and 258.8, 259.7, and 270.9 pm (H₃IO₆^2–) and the OD stretching modes of isotopically dilute samples: 2498 and 2564 cm^–1 (90 K) (HDO), and 1786, 2024, and 2188 cm^–1 (H₂DIO₆^2–). The IO stretching modes of the H₃IO₆^2– ions (696–788 cm^–1 and 555–658 cm^–1, 295 K) display the different strength of the respective I–O and I–O(H) bonds (r_I–O: 181.1–188.3 pm and 189.2–194.5 pm).

Nd(S₂O₇)(HSO₄): The First Disulfate of a Rare Earth Element Light violett single crystals of Nd(S₂O₇)(HSO₄) have been obtained by the reaction of Nd₂O₃ and oleum (30% SO₃) at 200 °C in sealed glass ampoules.

The O–H … O–IO₂ hydrogen bonds of the crystallographically different H₂O molecules of the dihydrates (ν_OD (OD stretching modes of isotopically dilute samples) 2430, 2415, 2333 and 2300 cm^–1, Zn(IO₃)₂ · 2 H₂O, 90 K) are examples to the matter of fact that O … O distances are only a bad measure for the strength of hydrogen bonds. The infrared and Raman spectra as well as a group theoretical treatment are presented and discussed with respect to mutual exclusion principle (possible space groups), the strength of the hydrogen bonds and the distortion of the IO₃^– ions at the C₁ lattice sites.

Nd2(SeO3)2(SeO4) · 2H2O – a Mixed‐Valence Compound containing Selenium in the Oxidation States +IV and +VI

Pale pink crystals of Nd₂(SeO₃)₂(SeO₄) · 2H₂O were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions from H₂SeO₃ and Nd₂O₃ at about 200 °C.

The crystal structure of Nd₂(SeO₃)₂(SeO₄) · 2H₂O is an ordered variant of the corresponding erbium compound. Eight oxygen atoms coordinate the Nd^III atom in the shape of a bi‐capped trigonal prism. The oxygen atoms are part of pyramidal (Se^IVO₃)^2? groups, (Se^VIO₄)^2? tetrahedra and water molecules. The [NdO₈] polyhedra share edges to form chains oriented along [010]. The selenate ions link these chains into layers parallel to (001). The layers are interconnected by the selenite ions into a three‐dimensional framework. The dehydration of Nd₂(SeO₃)₂(SeO₄) · 2H₂O starts at 260 °C. The thermal decomposition into Nd₂SeO₅, SeO₂ and O₂ at 680 °C is followed by further loss of SeO₂ leaving cubic Nd₂O₃.
