Crystal and molecular structure of complex compound [Fe3O(CH3COO)6(H2O)3]2[ZnCl4] ⋅ 2H2O

The X-ray crystal structure of trinuclear iron acetate [Fe₃O(CH₃COO)₆(H₂O)₃]₂ [ZnCl₄] ? 2H₂O was determined. The crystal has a ionic structure.

Each Fe atom is coordinated by four O atoms of bridging carboxy groups, the μ₃-bridging O atom, and the water molecule in the trans position to the latter O atom. Mössbauer spectroscopy evidence indicates the high-spin state (_S = 5/2) of the iron(III) ions.     

An unusual function of the anion of 1-hydroxyethane-1,1-diphosphonic acid (H4 L): Crystal structure of [Ni(Phen)3](H7 L 2)0.5(H5 L 2)0.5 ⋅ 2H2O

Differential metathesis reactions of 2,2′-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline complexes of cobalt(II) and nickel(II): cocrystallization of ionization isomers {[cis-Ni(phen)2(H2O)2][cis-Ni(phen)2(H2O)Cl]} (PF6)3⋅4.5H2O, and a synthetic route to asymmetric tris-substituted complexes

Addition of ammonium hexafluorophosphate to aqueous solutions of M(chelate)Cl₂ [chelate = 2,2-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline, M = Co(II) and Ni(II)] produce different metathesis products. Tris-substituted chelate complexes are produced in the case of bipyridine; however {[cis-M(phen)₂Cl(H₂O)][ cis-M(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]}(PF₆)₃4.5H₂O, a unique example of cocrystallized ionization isomers, is produced with phenanthroline. Extended hydrogen bonding interactions connect [M(phen)₂Cl(H₂O)]⁺ and [M(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]²⁺ cations in the crystal lattice. Because metathesis reactions using phenanthroline produce disubstituted complexes, the convenient synthesis of symmetric [Ni(phen)₃]²⁺ and asymmetric [Ni(phen)₂(5-nitrophenanthroline)]²⁺ is described.

The intermolecular packing is controlled by hydrogen bonding, especially in 1 and by stacking. The thermal stability of the compounds and the loss of water molecules and ligands was monitored by a thermogravimetric study.

Crystal structure of triaquamaleatostrontium(II) monohydrate, [Sr(C4H2O4)(OH2)3]·H2O

[Sr(C₄H₂O₄)(OH₂)₃]·H₂O is monoclinic, P2₁/n, witha=11.476(2),b=7.027(1),c=12.344(2) Å, =115.74(3)°,V=896.67 ų,Z=4. The Sr atom is surrounded by nine oxygen atoms which come from four different maleate anions and three water molecules. The Sr–O distances range from 2.546(2) to 2.808(2) Å. The C–O distances are equal within the standard deviation 1.263(3) to 1.258(3) Å). In the maleate anion, the planes that contain the carboxylate groups form an angle of 74.44(9)°. Both carboxylate groups deviate significantly from planarity. The different coordination modes of the carboxylate group and the extensive hydrogen bonding present are responsible for the polymeric nature of the structure.     

Crystal structure of [Co(bipy)(maleato) (H2O)3]·H2O (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine)

Preparation of the mononuclear cobalt(II) complex, [Co(bipy)(maleato) (H₂O)₃]·H₂O (1) where bipy = 2,2-bipyridine, were accomplished by reaction of an aqueous solution containing sodium maleate and an ethanolic solution of Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O and bipy.

The structure consists of discrete mononuclear cobalt molecules. The cobalt atom is six-coordinate and presents a slightly distorted octahedral geometry, which consists of the two imine N atoms of bipy, a terminal carboxylate O atom from maleato ligand, and a water O atom in the basal plane with Co—N bond distances of 2.116(2) and 2.124(3) Å and Co—O distances of 2.075(2) and 2.088(2) Å, respectively. The relatively shorter Co—O distances are due to the trans effect of the bipy ligand. The octahedral coordination is completed the other two water molecules. The coordinate and the lattice water molecules were identified by TG study.
