Crystal structures of Ln4Ni3O8 (Ln = La, Nd) triple layer T'-type nickelates

Single-phase Ln4Ni3O8 (Ln = La, Nd) nickelates were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined by Rietveld refinement of powder neutron diffraction data. The crystal structures of these mixed-valent Ni1+/Ni2+ phases belong to the T'-type and are built by intergrowth of LnO2 fluorite layers with triple NiO2 infinite-layer structural blocks. The major driving force of transformation of the LnO rock-salt block of the parent Ln4Ni3O10-delta Ruddlesden-Popper phases to the fluorite arrangement in the reduced Ln4Ni3O8 phases is attributed to internal structural stress. This transformation allows longer Ni-O bonds in Ln4Ni3O8 without overstretching of the Ln-O bonds, especially in the equatorial plane. The observed displacement of Ni atoms from the outer NiO2 planes toward the Ni atom of the central NiO2 plane in Ln4Ni3O8 is ascribed to large electrostatic repulsion from the fluorite part of the structure. X-ray absorption spectra near the K-edge of Ni suggest that the charge density on the nickel ion is similar for all members of the T'-type Lnn+1NinO2n+2 homologous series, which correlates with nearly constant Ni-O bond lengths observed in all the reduced nickelates. This suggests that the formal changes in the valence state of Ni affect the covalency of the Ni-O bond.     

(M4H3X)2B2O2: hydrometal complexes (M = Ni, Mg) containing double tetracoordinate planar nonmetal centers (X = C, N)

Geometrical optimizations and electronic structural analyses of the -O(2)B(2)- bridged hydrometal complexes (M(4)H(3)C)(2)B(2)O(2) and (M(4)H(3)N)(2)B(2)O(2)(2+) (M = Ni, Mg) containing double tetracoordinate planar nonmetals (TPN) have been performed using the density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level. Theoretical evidence of the possibility of double TPN centers coexisting in one planar molecule is presented.

Electronic Band Structure and Madelung Potential Study of the Nickelates La(2)NiO(4), La(3)Ni(2)O(7), and La(4)Ni(3)O(10)

Tight-binding electronic band structures and Madelung potentials were calculated for La(2)NiO(4), La(3)Ni(2)O(7), and La(4)Ni(3)O(10) to examine why a metal-to-metal transition occurs in the nickelate Ln(4)Ni(3)O(10) (Ln = La, Nd, Pr). La(4)Ni(3)O(10) and La(3)Ni(2)O(7) are each found to have two hidden one-dimensional (1D) Fermi surfaces, which suggests that both compounds should possess a charge density wave instability. Factors leading to hidden 1D Fermi surfaces in the e(g) block bands of the nickelates were discussed.     

Photodissociation studies of the electronic and vibrational spectroscopy of Ni(+)(H2O)

The electronic spectrum of Ni?(H?O) has been measured from 16200 to 18000 cm?1 using photofragment spectroscopy. Transitions to two excited electronic states are observed; they are sufficiently long-lived that the spectrum is vibrationally and partially rotationally resolved. An extended progression in the metal-ligand stretch is observed, and the absolute vibrational quantum numbering is assigned by comparing isotopic shifts between ??Ni?(H?O) and ??Ni?(H?O). Time-dependent density functional calculations aid in assigning the spectrum. Two electronic transitions are observed, from the 2A? ground state (which correlates to the 2D, 3d? ground state of Ni?) to the 32A? and 22A? excited states. These states are nearly degenerate and correlate to the 2F, 3d?4s excited state of Ni?. Both transitions are quite weak, but surprisingly, the transition to the 2A? state is stronger, although it is symmetry-forbidden. The 3d?4s states of Ni? interact less strongly with water than does the ground state; therefore, the excited states observed are less tightly bound and have a longer metal-ligand bond than the ground state. Calculations at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level predict that binding to Ni? increases the H-O-H angle in water from 104.2 to 107.5° as the metal removes electron density from the oxygen lone pairs. The photodissociation spectrum shows well-resolved rotational structure due to rotation about the Ni-O axis. This permits determination of the spin rotation constants ε(αα)' = -12 cm?1 and ε(αα)' = -3 cm?1 and the excited state rotational constant A' = 14.5 cm?1. This implies a H-O-H angle of 104 ± 1° in the 22A? excited state. The O-H stretching frequencies of the ground state of Ni?(H?O) were measured by combining IR excitation with visible photodissociation in a double resonance experiment. The O-H symmetric stretch is ν?' = 3616.5 cm?1; the antisymmetric stretch is ν?' = 3688 cm?1. These values are 40 and 68 cm?1 lower, respectively, than those in bare H?O.     

DFT-UX3LYP studies on the coordination chemistry of Ni2+. Part 1: Six coordinate [Ni(NH3)n(H2O)(6-n)]2+ complexes

DFT calculations with the UX3LYP hybrid functional and a medium-sized 6-311++G(d,p) basis set were performed to examine the gas-phase structure of paramagnetic (S = 1) six-coordinate complexes [Ni(NH3)n(H2O)(6-n)](2+), 0 < or = n < or = 6. Significant interligand hydrogen bonding was found in [Ni(H2O)6](2+), but this becomes much less significant as NH3 replaces H2O in the coordination sphere of the metal. Bond angles and bond lengths obtained from these calculations compare reasonably well with available crystallographic data. The mean calculated Ni-O bond length in [Ni(H2O)6](2+) is 2.093 A, which is 0.038 A longer than the mean of the crystallographically observed values (2.056(22) A, 108 structures) but within 2sigma of the experimental values. The mean calculated Ni-N bond length in [Ni(NH3)6](2+) is 2.205(3) A, also longer (by 0.070 A) than the crystallographically observed mean (2.135(18) A, 7 structures). Valence bond angles are reproduced within 1 degree. The successive replacement of H2O by NH3 as ligands results in an increase in the stabilization energy by 7 +/- 2 kcal mol(-1) per additional NH3 ligand. The experimentally observed increase in the lability of H2O in Ni(II) as NH3 replaces H2O in the coordination sphere is explained by an increase in the Ni-OH2 bond length. It was found from a natural population analysis that complexes with the highest stabilization energies are associated with the greatest extent of ligand-to-metal charge transfer, and the transferred electron density is largely accommodated in the metal 4s and 3d orbitals. An examination of the charge density rho bcp and the Laplacian of the charge density nabla(2)rho(bcp) at the metal-ligand bond critical points (bcp) in the series show a linear correlation with the charge transferred to the metal. Values of nabla(2)rho(bcp) are positive, indicative of a predominantly closed-shell interaction. The charge transferred to the metal increases as n, the number of NH3 ligands in the complex, increases. This lowers the polarizing ability of the metal on the ligand donors and the average metal-ligand bond length increases, resulting in a direct correlation between the dissociation energy of the complexes and the reciprocal of the average metal-ligand bond length. There is a strong correlation between the charge transferred to the metal and experimental DeltaH values for successive replacement of H2O by NH3, but a correlation with stability constants (log beta values) breaks when n = 5 and 6, probably because of entropic effects in solution. Nevertheless, DFT calculations may be a useful way of estimating the stability constants of metal-ligand systems.     

Hydrothermal synthesis, structure and quantum chemistry of transition metal complex supported by metal-oxo cluster [{Ni(phen)2}2(x-Mo8O26)]

A nickel-1,10-phenanthroline complex supported on an octamolybdate, [{Ni(phen)2}2(x- Mo8O26)], has been hydrothermally synthesized with MoO3, H2MoO4, Ni(OAc)2· 6H2O and 1,10-phenathroline (1,10-phen) as raw materials. The crystals of the compound belong to monoclinic P21/n space group, a = 1.2952(2), b = 1.6659(10), c = 1.3956(12) nm, b =106.273(8)°, V = 2.8906(5) nm3, Z = 2. 5604 observable reflections (I ＞2s(I)) were used for structure resolution and refinements to converge to final R1 = 0.0414, wR2 = 0.0815. The result of structure determination shows that the compound contains octamolybdate possessing a novel structure type (named as x-isomer). The feature of x-[Mo8O26]4- is that it is composed of Mo6O6 ring and two MoO6 octahedra located at cap positions on opposite faces. The Mo6O6 ring contains two octahedral and four trigonal-bipyramidal MoVI atoms. Each x-[Mo8O26]4- unit is bonded with two [Ni(phen)2]2+ through terminal oxygen atoms of octahedral and neighbouring trigonal-bipyramidal Mo atom in the Mo6O6 ring. IR and UV-Vis spectra of the compound were measured and its electronic structure was studied by EHMO method.     

Structure,magnetism, and electrochemistry of the multinickel polyoxoanions [Ni6As3W24O94(H2O)2]17-, [Ni3Na(H2O)2(AsW9O34)2]11-, and [Ni4Mn2P3W24O94(H2O)2]17-

The three novel, multi-nickel-substituted heteropolytungstates [Ni(6)As(3)W(24)O(94)(H(2)O)(2)](17)(-) (1), [Ni(3)Na(H(2)O)(2)(AsW(9)O(34))(2)](11)(-) (2), and [Ni(4)Mn(2)P(3)W(24)O(94)(H(2)O)(2)](17)(-) (3) have been synthesized and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, electrochemistry, and magnetic studies. Single-crystal X-ray analysis was carried out on Na(16.5)Ni(0.25)[Ni(6)As(3)W(24)O(94)(H(2)O)(2)].54H(2)O, which crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, with a = 17.450(4) A, b = 17.476(4) A, c = 22.232(4) A, alpha = 85.73(3) degrees, beta = 89.74(3) degrees, gamma = 84.33(3) degrees, and Z = 2, Na(11)[Ni(3)Na(H(2)O)(2)(AsW(9)O(34))(2)].30.5H(2)O, which crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, with a = 12.228(2) A, b = 16.743(3) A, c = 23.342(5) A, alpha = 78.50(3) degrees, beta = 80.69(3) degrees, gamma = 78.66(3) degrees, and Z = 2, and Na(17)[Ni(4)Mn(2)P(3)W(24)O(94)(H(2)O)(2)].50.5H(2)O, which crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/c, with a = 17.540(4) A, b = 22.303(5) A, c = 35.067(7) A, beta = 95.87(3) A, and Z = 4. Polyanion 1 consists of two B-alpha-(Ni(3)AsW(9)O(40)) Keggin moieties linked via a unique AsW(6)O(16) fragment, leading to a banana-shaped structure with C(2)(v)() symmetry. The mixed-metal tungstophosphate 3 is isostructural with 1. Polyanion 2 consists of two lacunary B-alpha-[AsW(9)O(34)](9)(-) Keggin moieties linked via three nickel(II) centers and a sodium ion. Electrochemical studies show that 1-3 exhibit a unique and reproducible voltammetric pattern and that all three compounds are stable in a large pH range. An investigation of the magnetic properties of 1-3 indicates that the exchange interactions within the trimetal clusters are ferromagnetic. However, for 1 and 3 intra- and intermolecular interactions between different trinuclear clusters are also present.     

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of a Ni(Ⅱ) Complex [Ni(H2O)4(4,4''-bipy)2](hca)2

The reaction of Ni(CH3COO)2(6H2O, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid (Hhca) and 4,4'-bipyri- dine (bipy) ligand in water-solution afforded a mononuclear complex [Ni(H2O)4(4,4'-bipy)2](hca)2 which was characterized by IR, elemental analysis, TGA and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray crystallography analysis reveals that the complex is of triclinic, space group P with a = 7.0238(14), b = 7.2934(11), c = 17.186(4) (A), α = 87.073(13), β = 84.354(10), γ = 81.961(12)°, V = 866.9(3) (A)3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.474 g/cm3, F(000) = 402, μ = 62.7 mm-1, R = 0.0411, wR = 0.0862 and GOF = 1.048. In solid state, the cation [Ni(H2O)4(4,4'-bpy)2]2+ connects six nearby hca counter anions via O-H…O hydrogen bonds to form an extended 2D lattice framework and the O-H…N hydrogen bonds finally link the 2D layers into an infinite 3D network.     

Polar symmetry and intercalation of new multilayered hybrid molybdates: [M2(pzc)2(H2O)x][Mo5O16] (M = Co, Ni)

The layered molybdate [M2(pzc)2(H2O)x][Mo5O16] (I: M = Ni, x = 5.0; II: M = Co, x = 4.0; pzc = pyrazinecarboxylate) hybrid solids were synthesized via hydrothermal reactions at 160-165 degrees C. The structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data for I (Cc, Z = 4; a = 33.217(4) A, b = 5.6416(8) A, c = 13.982(2) A, beta = 99.407(8) degrees , and V = 2585.0(6) A3) and powder X-ray diffraction data for II (C2/c, Z = 4; a = 35.42(6) A, b = 5.697(9) A, c = 14.28(2) A, beta = 114.95(4) degrees , and V = 2614(12) A3). The polar structure of I contains new [Ni2(pzc)2(H2O)5]2+ double layers that form an asymmetric pattern of hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds to stair-stepped [Mo5O16]2- sheets, inducing a net dipole moment in the latter. In II, however, the [Co2(pzc)2(H2O)4]2+ double layers have one less coordinated water and subsequently exhibit a symmetric pattern of covalent and hydrogen bonding to the [Mo5O16]2- sheets, leading to a centrosymmetric structure. Thermogravimetric analyses and powder X-ray diffraction data reveal that I can be dehydrated and rehydrated with from 0 to 6.5 water molecules per formula unit, which is coupled with a corresponding contraction/expansion of the interlayer distances. Also, the dehydrated form of I can be intercalated by approximately 4.3 H2S molecules per formula unit, but the intercalation by pyridine or methanol is limited to less than one molecule per formula unit.     

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of a Ni(Ⅱ) Complex [Ni(H_2O)_4(4,4'-bipy)_2](hca)_2

1 INTRODUCTION The rational design and synthesis of new metal- organic frameworks have generated considerable interest in supramolecular chemistry and materials science owing to their intriguing structural diver- sities and potential applications as functional mate- rials[1～6].

A new type of single-helix coordination polymer with mixed ligands [M2(phen)2(e,a-cis-1,4-chdc)2(H2O)2]n (M=Co and Ni; phen=1,10-phenanthroline; chdc=cyclohexanedicarboxylate)

A new family of single-stranded helices coordination polymers with mixed ligands, [M2(phen)2(e,a-cis-1,4-chdc)2(H2O)2]n (1, M=Co; 2, M=Ni; chdc=cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid; phen=1,10-phenanthroline), were prepared under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra, TG analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. X-ray crystal structural analyses reveal that 1 and 2 are isomorphic and belong to the monoclinic system. C40H36Co2N4O10, P2(1)/c, a=10.0566(5) A, b=8.8843(5) A, c=20.2912(14) A, beta=100.052(3) degrees, Z=2 for 1; and C40H36Ni2N4O10, P2(1)/c, a=9.8921(6) A, b=9.0151(4) A, c=20.1628(17) A, beta=100.31(2) degrees, Z=2 for 2. In the structures of 1 and 2, the 1,4-chdc ligand possesses only one kind of e,a-cis-conformation although there are both cis- and trans-conformations in the raw material. Two oxygen atoms of one carboxyl in 1,4-chdc ligand and another oxygen atom of contraposition carboxyl link adjacent Co or Ni atoms into an infinite 1-D zigzag chain. The most attractive structural feature of 1 and 2 is that they both exhibit an infinite chiral chainlike structure with 2(1) helices along the b axis. In addition, the right-handed and the left-handed chains are alternate. Meanwhile, the adjacent chains of 1 and 2 are linked via hydrogen bonds into 2-D network structures, which further form 3-D frameworks via pi-pi interactions of 1,10-phen.     

Local electronic structure of layered Li(x)Ni0.5Mn0.5O2 and Li(x)Ni(1/3)Mn(1/3)Co(1/3)O2

Samples of Li(x)Ni0.5Mn0.5O2 and Li(x)Ni(1/3)Mn(1/3)Co(1/3)O2 were prepared as active materials in electrochemical half-cells and were cycled electrochemically to obtain different values of Li concentration, x. Absorption edges of Ni, Mn, Co, and O in these materials of differing x were measured by electron energy loss spectrometry (EELS) in a transmission electron microscope to determine the changes in local electronic structure caused by delithiation. The work was supported by electronic structure calculations with the VASP pseudopotential package, the full-potential linear augmented plane wave code WIEN2K, and atomic multiplet calculations that took account of the electronic effects from local octahedral symmetry. A valence change from Ni2+ to Ni4+ with delithiation would have caused a 3 eV shift in energy of the intense white line at the Ni L3 edge, but the measured shift was less than 1.2 eV. The intensities of the "white lines" at the Ni L-edges did not change enough to account for a substantial change of Ni valence. No changes were detectable at the Mn and Co L-edges after delithiation either. Both EELS and the computational efforts showed that most of the charge compensation for Li+ takes place at hybridized O 2p states, not at Ni atoms.     

New members in the Ni(n+1)(QO3)nX2 family: unusual 3D network based on Ni4ClO3 cubane-like clusters in Ni7(TeO3)6Cl2

Three new members in the family of nickel(II) tellurium(IV)/selenium(IV) oxyhalides generally formulated as Ni(n+1)(QO3)nX2 (Q = Te, X = Cl, n = 6, 10; Q = Se, X = Br, n = 4) have been synthesized by solid-state reactions of NiX2, QO2, and NiO (or Ni2O3) at high temperature. The structure of Ni7(TeO3)6Cl2 features a novel 3D network based on Ni4ClO3 cubane-like clusters with Te atoms located at the cavities of the network. Ni4ClO3 clusters are interconnected into a hexagonal layer through additional O...O edges. The neighboring two layers are further interconnected, via sharing of common Ni(II) atoms, into a novel 3D network. The 3D open framework of Ni5(SeO3)4Br2 is built from 2D nickel(II) oxybromide layers bridged by Se and additional Ni atoms. The structure of Ni11(TeO3)10Cl2 features a condensed 3D network based on NiO5Cl, NiO6, and NiO5 polyhedra interconnected via corner and edge sharing, as well as O-Te-O bridges. The results of magnetic property measurements indicate that all three compounds display antiferromagnetic interactions between nickel(II) centers.

Dual shell-like magnetic clusters containing Ni(II) and Ln(III) (Ln = La, Pr, and Nd) ions

Dual shell-like nanoscopic magnetic clusters featuring a polynuclear nickel(II) framework encapsulating that of lanthanide ions (Ln = La, Pr, and Nd) were synthesized using Ni(NO3)(2).6H2O, Ln(NO3)(3).6H2O, and iminodiacetic acid (IDA) under hydrothermal conditions. Structurally established by crystallographic studies, these clusters are [La20Ni30(IDA)30(CO3)6(NO3)6(OH)30(H2O)12](CO3)(6).72H2O (1), [Ln20Ni21(C4H5NO4)21(OH)24(C2H2O3)6(C2O4)3(NO3)9(H2O)12](NO3)9.nH2O [C2H2O3 is the alkoxide form of glycolate; Ln = Pr (2), n = 42; Nd (3), n = 50], and {[La4Ni5Na(IDA)5(CO3)(NO3)4(OH)5(H2O)5][CO3].10H2O} infinity (4). Carbonate, oxalate, and glycolate are products of hydrothermal decomposition of IDA. Compositions of these compounds were confirmed by satisfactory elemental analyses. It has been found that the cluster structure is dependent on the identity of the lanthanide ion as well as the starting Ln/Ni/IDA ratio. The cationic cluster of 1 features a core of the Keplerate type with an outer icosidodecahedron of Ni(II) ions encaging a dodecahedral kernel of La(III). Clusters 2 and 3, distinctly different from 1, are isostructural, possessing a core of an outer shell of 21 Ni(II) ions encapsulating an inner shell of 20 Ln(III) ions. Complex 4 is a three-dimensional assembly of cluster building blocks connected by units of Na(NO3)/La(NO3)3; the structure of the building block resembles closely that of 1, with a hydrated La(III) ion internalized in the decanuclear cage being an extra feature. Magnetic studies indicated ferromagnetic interactions in 1, while overall antiferromagnetic interactions were revealed for 2 and 3. The polymeric, three-dimensional cluster network 4 displayed interesting ferrimagnetic interactions.     

Hydrothermal syntheses and crystal structures of complex-linked three-Dimensional coordination vanadium selenites: M(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)V(2)Se(2)O(10) (M = Co,Ni)

Two inorganic-organic hybrid compounds with the formula M(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)V(2)Se(2)O(10) (M = Co, Ni) were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds Co(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)V(2)Se(2)O(10) (1) and Ni(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)V(2)Se(2)O(10) (2), which are structural analogues, crystallize in the triclinic space group Ponemacr; with crystal data a = 7.9665(3) A, b = 8.1974(3) A, c = 13.8096(4) A, alpha = 85.704(2) degrees, beta = 73.5180(10) degrees, gamma = 75.645(2) degrees, V = 837.76(5) A(3), and Z = 2 and a = 7.9489(19) A, b = 8.128(2) A, c = 13.709 A, alpha = 85.838(6) degrees, beta = 73.736(8) degrees, gamma = 75.594(9) degrees, V = 823.5(4) A(3), and Z = 2, respectively. [M(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)V(2)Se(2)O(10)] (M = Co, Ni) have a three-dimensional structure and consist of two subunits, [(VO(2))(SeO(3))](-) infinite chains and [M(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)](2+) fragments. The [(VO(2))(SeO(3))](-) chains are composed of [V(2)Se(4)O(14)](4)(-) clusters linked by VO(4)N triangular bipyramids. The 4,4'-bipy molecule as a bifunctional organic ligand is directly linked to Co or Ni and V atoms, affording the three-dimensionality. The compounds were characterized by infrared spectroscopy and differential thermal and thermogravimetric analyses.     

Triggering water exchange mechanisms via chelate architecture. Shielding of transition metal centers by aminopolycarboxylate spectator ligands

Paramagnetic effects on the relaxation rate and shift difference of the (17)O nucleus of bulk water enable the study of water exchange mechanisms on transition metal complexes by variable temperature and variable pressure NMR. The water exchange kinetics of [Mn(II)(edta)(H2O)](2-) (CN 7, hexacoordinated edta) was reinvestigated and complemented by variable pressure NMR data. The results revealed a rapid water exchange reaction for the [Mn(II)(edta)(H2O)](2-) complex with a rate constant of k(ex) = (4.1 +/- 0.4) x 10(8) s(-1) at 298.2 K and ambient pressure. The activation parameters DeltaH(double dagger), DeltaS(double dagger), and DeltaV(double dagger) are 36.6 +/- 0.8 kJ mol(-1), +43 +/- 3 J K(-1) mol(-1), and +3.4 +/- 0.2 cm(3) mol(-1), which are in line with a dissociatively activated interchange (I(d)) mechanism. To analyze the structural influence of the chelate, the investigation was complemented by studies on complexes of the edta-related tmdta (trimethylenediaminetetraacetate) chelate. The kinetic parameters for [Fe(II)(tmdta)(H2O)](2-) are k(ex) = (5.5 +/- 0.5) x 10(6) s(-1) at 298.2 K, DeltaH(double dagger) = 43 +/- 3 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS(double dagger) = +30 +/- 13 J K(-1) mol(-1), and DeltaV(double dagger) = +15.7 +/- 1.5 cm(3) mol(-1), and those for [Mn(II)(tmdta)(H2O)](2-) are k(ex) = (1.3 +/- 0.1) x 10(8) s(-1) at 298.2 K, DeltaH(double dagger) = 37.2 +/- 0.8 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS(double dagger) = +35 +/- 3 J K(-1) mol(-1), and DeltaV(double dagger) = +8.7 +/- 0.6 cm(3) mol(-1). The water containing species, [Fe(III)(tmdta)(H2O)](-) with a fraction of 0.2, is in equilibrium with the water-free hexa-coordinate form, [Fe(III)(tmdta)](-). The kinetic parameters for [Fe(III)(tmdta)(H2O)](-) are k(ex) = (1.9 +/- 0.8) x 10(7) s(-1) at 298.2 K, DeltaH(double dagger) = 42 +/- 3 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS(double dagger) = +36 +/- 10 J K(-1) mol(-1), and DeltaV(double dagger) = +7.2 +/- 2.7 cm(3) mol(-1). The data for the mentioned tmdta complexes indicate a dissociatively activated exchange mechanism in all cases with a clear relationship between the sterical hindrance that arises from the ligand architecture and mechanistic details of the exchange process for seven-coordinate complexes. The unexpected kinetic and mechanistic behavior of [Ni(II)(edta')(H2O)](2-) and [Ni(II)(tmdta')(H2O)](2-) is accounted for in terms of the different coordination number due to the strong preference for an octahedral coordination environment and thus a coordination equilibrium between the water-free, hexadentate [M(L)](n+) and the aqua-pentadentate forms [M(L')(H2O)](n+) of the Ni(II)-edta complex, which was studied in detail by variable temperature and pressure UV-vis experiments. For [Ni(II)(edta')(H2O)](2-) (CN 6, pentacoordinated edta) a water substitution rate constant of (2.6 +/- 0.2) x 10(5) s(-1) at 298.2 K and ambient pressure was measured, and the activation parameters DeltaH(double dagger), DeltaS(double dagger), and DeltaV(double dagger) were found to be 34 +/- 1 kJ mol(-1), -27 +/- 2 J K(-1) mol(-1), and +1.8 +/- 0.1 cm(3) mol(-1), respectively. For [Ni(II)(tmdta')(H2O)](2-), we found k = (6.4 +/- 1.4) x 10(5) s(-1) at 298.2 K, DeltaH(double dagger) = 22 +/- 4 kJ mol(-1), and DeltaS(double dagger) = -59 +/- 5 J K(-1) mol(-1). The process is referred to as a water substitution instead of a water exchange reaction, since these observations refer to the intramolecular displacement of coordinated water by the carboxylate moiety in a ring-closure reaction.

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties of a Coordination Polymer [Ni（C10H13NO4）（H2O）2]n

A novel organic polycarboxylate N-cyclohexylaziridines-2R,3S-dicarboxylic acid was synthesized and reacted with Ni2(OH)2CO3.As a result,a coordination polymer was obtained.It crystallizes in orthorhombic,space group Pbca with a = 8.6325(10),b = 10.5414(13),c = 27.644(3) ,Z = 4,V = 2515.5(5) 3,C20H34N2Ni2O12,Mr = 611.91,Dc = 1.616 g/cm3,μ = 1.562 mm-1,F(000) = 1280,the final R = 0.0320 and wR = 0.0677 for 2854 independent reflections with Rint = 0.0390.Crystal structure shows that the coordination environment around the Ni(Ⅱ) ion can be described as a slightly distorted octahedron.The ligands act as a bridge through the carboxyl O atoms and join the Ni atoms into an infinite 1D chain structure.The 1D chain forms a 2D network through intermolecular O-H…O hydrogen bonds.The magnetic susceptibility measurements(2～300 K) agree with a weak antiferronmagnetic interaction between neighboring Ni ions in the chain.
