The homologue [Mn₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇(ax‐H₂PCy)] ( 5 ) leads under the same reaction conditions to the corresponding products [Mn₂(AuPR₃)₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(μ₄‐PCy)(CO)₆] (R = Ph ( 6 ), Et ( 8 )). Also [MnRe(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇(ax/eq‐H₂PCy)] ( 9 ) reacts under formation of [MnRe(AuPR₃)₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(μ₄‐PCy)(CO)₆] (R = Ph ( 10 ), Et ( 11 )). All new cluster complexes were identified by means of ¹H‐NMR, ³¹P‐NMR and ν(CO)‐IR spectroscopic measurements. 2 , 4 and 10 have also been characterized by single crystal X‐ray structure analyses with crystal parameters: 2 triclinic, space group P 1, a = 12.256(4) Å, b = 12.326(4) Å, c = 24.200(6) Å, α = 83.77(2)°, β = 78.43(2)°, γ = 68.76(2)°, Z = 2; 4 monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 12.851(3) Å, b = 18.369(3) Å, c = 40.966(8) Å, β = 94.22(1)°, Z = 8; 10 triclinic, space group P 1, a = 12.083(1) Å, b = 12.185(2) Å, c = 24.017(6) Å, α = 83.49(29)°, β = 78.54(2)°, γ = 69.15(2)°, Z = 2. The trapezoid arrangement of the metal atoms in 2 and 4 show in the solid structure trans‐positioned an open and a closed Re…Au edge. In solution these edges are equivalent and, on the ³¹P NMR time scale, represent two fluxional Re–Au bonds in the course of a topomerization process. Corresponding dynamic properties were observed for the dimanganese compounds 6 and 8 but not for the related MnRe clusters 10 and 11 . 2 and 4 are the first examples of cluster compounds with a permanent Re–Au bond valence isomerization.     

A Novel Adipate Bridged Supramolecular Layer: Crystal Structure of the Cobalt(II) Complex [(μ‐C6H8O4)4/2Co(μ‐H2O)2Co(H2O)4] · 4 H2O

The pale‐rose compound [(μ‐C₆H₈O₄)_4/2Co(μ‐H₂O)₂Co(H₂O)₄] · 4 H₂O was prepared from adipic acid and CoCO₃ in aqueous solution.

Hydroxo Bridged Dinuclear Rare Earth Complexes: Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [Ln2(phen)4(H2O)4(OH)2](NO3)4(phen)2 with Ln = Er,Lu

Reactions of phenanthroline (phen) and Er(NO₃)₃ · 5 H₂O or Lu(NO₃)₃ · H₂O in CH₃OH/H₂O yield [Ln₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄(OH)₂](NO₃)₄(phen)₂ with Ln = Er ( 1 ), Lu ( 2 ). Both isostructural complex compounds crystallize in the triclinic space group P 1 (no. 2) with the cell dimensions: a = 11.257(2) Å, b = 11.467(2) Å, c = 14.069(2) Å, α = 93.93(2)°, β = 98.18(1)°, γ = 108.14(1)°, V = 1696.0(6) ų, Z = 1 for ( 1 ) and a = 11.251(1) Å, b = 11.476(1) Å, c = 14.019(1) Å, α = 93.83(1)°, β = 98.27(1)°, γ = 108.27(1)°, V = 1689.0(3) ų, Z = 1 for ( 2 ). The crystal structures consist of the hydroxo bridged dinuclear [Ln₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄(OH)₂]⁴⁺ complex cations, hydrogen bonded NO₃^– anions and π‐π stacking (phen)₂ dimers. The rare earth metal atoms are coordinated by four N atoms of two phen ligands and four O atoms of two H₂O molecules and two μ‐OH groups to complete tetragonal antiprisms. Via two common μ‐OH groups, two neighboring tetragonal antiprisms are condensed to a centrosymmetric dinuclear [Ln₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄(OH)₂]⁴⁺ complex cation. Based on π‐π stacking interactions and hydrogen bonding, the complex cations and (phen)₂ dimers form 2 D layers parallel to (1 0 1), between which the hydrogen bonded NO₃^– anions are sandwiched. The structures can be simplified into a distorted CsCl structure when {[Ln₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄(OH)₂](NO₃)₄} and (phen)₂ are viewed as building units.     

Synthesis,electrochemical and antimicrobial studies of mono and binuclear iron(III) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes of [ONO] donor tridentate Schiff-base ligands

Tridentate Schiff bases (H₂L¹ or H₂L²) were derived from condensation of acetylacetone and 2-aminophenol or 2-aminobenzoic acid. Binuclear square pyramidal complexes of the type [M₂(L¹)₂]?·?nH₂O (M?=?Fe–Cl, n?=?0; M?=?VO, n?=?1) were accessed from interaction of H₂L¹ with anhydrous FeCl₃ and VOSO₄?·?5H₂O, respectively. A similar reaction with H₂L², however, produced mononuclear complexes [ML²(H₂O) _x ]?·?nH₂O (M=Fe–Cl, x?=?0, n?=?0; M=VO, x?=?1, n?=?1). The compounds were characterized using elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis, and NMR (for ligand only), and mass spectroscopies and solution electrical conductivity studies. Magnetic susceptibility measurements suggest antiferromagnetic exchange in binuclear Fe(III) and VO(IV) complexes. Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) provided unambiguous evidence for the presence of coordinated as well as lattice water in [VOL²(H₂O)]?·?H₂O. Cyclic voltammetric studies showed well-defined redox processes corresponding to Fe(III)/Fe(II) and VO(V)/VO(IV). In vitro antimicrobial activities of the compounds were investigated against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeroginosa, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, and Proteus vulgaris. H₂L¹ and its binuclear complexes exhibited pronounced activity against all the microorganisms tested.

The reaction of [Ru₃(CO)₇(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐PCy₂)₂] ( 3 ) with CS₂ in refluxing toluene affords the 50 VE‐cluster [Ru₃(CO)₅(CS)(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐PCy₂)₂(μ₃‐S)] ( 4 ). The compound cristallizes in the monoclinic space group P 2₁/a with a = 19.093(3), b = 12.2883(12), c = 20.098(3) Å; β = 104.223(16)° and V = 4570.9(10) ų. Although in the solid state structure one elongated Ru–Ru bond has been found the complex 4 can be considered by means of the ³¹P‐NMR data as an electron‐rich metal cluster.     

Untersuchung von Hydrolysereaktionen zum Aufbau von Eisen(III)‐Oxo‐Aggregaten

Investigation of the Hydrolytic Build‐up of Iron(III)‐Oxo‐Aggregates The synthesis and structures of five new iron/hpdta complexes [{Fe^III₄(μ‐O)(μ‐OH)(hpdta)₂(H₂O)₄}₂Fe^II(H₂O)₄]·21H₂O ( 2 ), (pipH₂)₂[Fe₂(hpdta)₂]·8H₂O ( 4 ), (NH₄)₄[Fe₆(μ‐O)(μ‐OH)₅(hpdta)₃]·20.5H₂O ( 5 ), (pipH₂)_1.5[Fe₄(μ‐O)(μ‐OH)₃(hpdta)₂]·6H₂O ( 7 ), [{Fe₆(μ₃‐O)₂(μ‐OH)₂(hpdta)₂(H₄hpdta)₂}₂]·py·50H₂O ( 9 ) are described and the formation of these is discussed in the context of other previously published hpdta‐complexes (H₅hpdta = 2‐Hydroxypropane‐1, 3‐diamine‐N, N, N′, N′‐tetraacetic acid). Terminal water ligands are important for the successive build‐up of higher nuclearity oxy/hydroxy bridged aggregates as well as for the activation of substrates such as DMA and CO₂. The formation of the compounds under hydrolytic conditions formally results from condensation reactions. The magnetic behaviour can be quantified analogously up to the hexanuclear aggregate 5 . The iron(III) atoms in 1 ‐ 7 are antiferromagnetically coupled giving rise to S = 0 spin ground states. In the dodecanuclear iron(III) aggregate 9 we observe the encapsulation of inorganic ionic fragments by dimeric{M₂hpdta}‐units as we recently reported for Al^III/hpdta‐system.

Two new molybdenum phosphate complexes, [Cu₂(phen)₄(μ‐Cl)][PMo₁₂O₄₀]·H₂O (phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline) ( 1 ) and (Hbpy)[Cu^I(bpy)]₂[PMo^V₂Mo^VI₁₀O₃₉] (bpy = 4,4′‐bipyridine) ( 2 ), have been prepared under mild hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 2 crystallize in triclinic system, space group , with a = 12.5458(7) Å, b = 13.4486(8) Å, c = 21.2406(12) Å, α = 99.7020(10)°, β = 94.2320(10)°, γ = 95.0890(10)°, V = 3504.2(3) ų and Z = 2 for 1 , and a = 10.7871(6) Å, b = 10.9016(6) Å, c = 12.7897(7) Å, α = 96.8500(10)°, β = 110.0850(10)°, γ = 103.5800(10)°, V = 1339.74(13) ų and Z = 1 for 2 . Compound 1 contains a [Cu₂(phen)₄(μ‐Cl)]³⁺ cation in which two similar [Cu(phen)₂] units are bridged by one chlorine atom. Compound 2 contains one‐dimensional straight chain of Keggin polyoxoanions [PMo^V₂Mo^VI₁₀O₃₉]_n^3? and two linear cationic chains of [Cu^I(bpy)]_nⁿ⁺. The molecular packing shows a two‐dimensional network, which is formed by the cross of the linear Keggin anions and Cu‐bpy cations.     

An Intermolecular Hydrogen Bridge between a Porphyrinoid μ‐Oxido Diiron(III) Host and a Guest Water Molecule

μ‐Oxido‐bis[(hexaethyldimethyl‐2,2′‐bidipyrrinato)iron(III)] ( 1 ) crystallizes as a mixed dichloromethane/water solvate as black plates in the triclinic system, space group P\bar{1} , with a = 14.536(3), b = 16.194(3), c = 25.883(5) Å, α = 98.89(3)°, β = 91.28(3)°, γ = 90.56(3)°, and Z = 2. In the crystal structure two distinct solvates 1· CH₂Cl₂ and 1· H₂O are present in equal ratio. In both cases the solvent is found in direct vicinity of the Fe–O–Fe subunit and is located within a binding pocket formed by the two helically distorted tetrapyrroles. Whereas the dichloromethane molecule is oriented within this pocket as a dipole with the positive end pointing towards the oxygen atom of the Fe–O–Fe subunit, the water molecule forms a hydrogen bond with this site, supported by additional weak interactions with adjacent N‐donor atoms.     

Crystal Structures of [Mn2(H2O)4(phen)2(C4H4O4)2] · 2 H2O and [Mn(phen)2(H2O)2][Mn(phen)2(C4H4O4)](C4H4O4) · 7 H2O

Reactions of 1,10‐phenanthroline monohydrate, Na₂C₄H₄O₄ · 6 H₂O and MnSO₄ · H₂O in CH₃OH/H₂O yielded a mixture of [Mn₂(H₂O)₄(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂] · 2 H₂O ( 1 ) and [Mn(phen)₂(H₂O)₂][Mn(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)](C₄H₄O₄) · 7 H₂O ( 2 ). The crystal structure of 1 (P1 (no. 2), a = 8.257(1) Å, b = 8.395(1) Å, c = 12.879(2) Å, α = 95.33(1)°, β = 104.56(1)°, γ = 106.76(1)°, V = 814.1(2) ų, Z = 1) consists of the dinuclear [Mn₂(H₂O)₄(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂] molecules and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The centrosymmetric dinuclear molecules, in which the Mn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligand and four O atoms from two H₂O molecules and two bis‐monodentate succinato ligands, are assembled via π‐π stacking interactions into 2 D supramolecular layers parallel to (101) (d(Mn–O) = 2.123–2.265 Å, d(Mn–N) = 2.307 Å). The crystal structure of 2 (P1 (no. 2), a = 14.289(2) Å, b = 15.182(2) Å, c = 15.913(2) Å, α = 67.108(7)°, β = 87.27(1)°, γ = 68.216(8)°, V = 2934.2(7) ų, Z = 2) is composed of the [Mn(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]²⁺ cations, [Mn(phen)₂(C₄H₄O₄)] complex molecules, (C₄H₄O₄)^2– anions, and H₂O molecules. The (C₄H₄O₄)^2– anions and H₂O molecules form 3 D hydrogen bonded network and the cations and complex molecules in the tunnels along [001] and [011], respectively, are assembled via the π‐π stacking interactions into 1 D supramolecular chains. The Mn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by four N atoms of two bidentate chelating phen ligands and two water O atoms or two carboxyl O atoms (d(Mn–O) = 2.088–2.129 Å, d(Mn–N) = 2.277–2.355 Å). Interestingly, the succinato ligands in the complex molecules assume gauche conformation bidentately to chelate the Mn atoms into seven‐membered rings.     

Photomagnetic Switching of Heterometallic Complexes [M(dmf)4(H2O)3(μ‐CN)Fe(CN)5]⋅H2O (M=Nd,La, Gd,Y) Analyzed by Single‐Crystal X‐ray Diffraction and Ab Initio Theory

Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction measurements have been carried out on [Nd(dmf)₄(H₂O)₃(μ‐CN)Fe(CN)₅]?H₂O ( 1 ; dmf=dimethylformamide), [Nd(dmf)₄(H₂O)₃(μ‐CN)Co(CN)₅]?H₂O ( 2 ), [La(dmf)₄(H₂O)₃(μ‐CN)Fe(CN)₅]?H₂O ( 3 ), [Gd(dmf)₄(H₂O)₃(μ‐CN)Fe(CN)₅]?H₂O ( 4 ), and [Y(dmf)₄(H₂O)₃(μ‐CN)Fe(CN)₅]?H₂O ( 5 ), at 15(2) K with and without UV illumination of the crystals. Significant changes in unit‐cell parameters were observed for all the iron‐containing complexes, whereas 2 showed no response to UV illumination. Photoexcited crystal structures have been determined for 1 , 3 , and 4 based on refinements of two‐conformer models, and excited‐state occupancies of 78.6(1), 84(6), and 86.6(7) % were reached, respectively. Significant bond‐length changes were observed for the Fe–ligand bonds (up to 0.19 Å), the cyano bonds (up to 0.09 Å), and the lanthanide–ligand bonds (up to 0.10 Å). Ab initio theoretical calculations were carried out for the experimental ground‐state geometry of 1 to understand the electronic structure changes upon UV illumination. The calculations suggest that UV illumination gives a charge transfer from the cyano groups on the iron atom to the lanthanide ion moiety, {Nd(dmf)₄(H₂O)₃}, with a distance of approximately 6 Å from the iron atom. The charge transfer is accompanied by a reorganization of the spin state on the {Fe(CN)₆} complex, and a change in geometry that produces a metastable charge‐transfer state with an increased number of unpaired electrons, thus accounting for the observed photomagnetic effect.     

Two Succinato‐bridged Zinc(II) Phenanthroline Complexes: [Zn(phen)L2/2](H2L) and [(phen)2Zn(μ‐L)Zn(phen)2]L � 11H2O with H2L = Succinic Acid

Two mixed ligand Zn^II complexes [Zn(phen)L_2/2](H₂L) ( 1 ) and [(phen)₂Zn(μ‐L)Zn(phen)₂]L � 11H₂O ( 2 ) with H₂L = suc‐cinic acid were prepared and crystallographically characterized. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (no. 15) with a = 13.618(1) Å, b = 9.585(1) Å, c = 15.165(1) Å, β = 96.780(6)°, V = 1965.6(3)ų, Z = 4 and complex 2 in the triclinic space group P 1¯ (no. 2) with a = 12.989(2)Å, b = 14.464(2)Å, c = 18.025(3)Å, α = 90.01(1)°, β = 109.69(1)°, γ = 112.32(1)°, V = 2917.4(8) ų, Z = 2. 1 consists of succinic acid molecules and 1D zigzag [Zn(phen)(C₄H₄O₄)_2/2] polymeric chains, in which the tetrahedrally coordinated Zn atoms are bridged by bis ‐ monodentate succinato ligands. Succinic acid molecules play an important role in supramolecular assemblies of the polymeric chains into 2D layers as well as in the stacking of 2D layers. 2 is composed of [(phen)₂Zn(μ‐L)Zn(phen)₂]²⁺ complex cations, succinate anions and hydrogen bonded water molecules. Within the divalent cations, Zn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by four N atoms of two phen ligands and two O atoms of one bis‐chelating succinato ligand. Through the intermolecular π—π stacking interactions, the complex cations form positively charged 2D layers, between which the noncoordinating succinate anions and water molecules are sandwiched.

[M(C₅H₅NCOO)₃(H₂O)₂][Cr(NCS)₆] · nH₂O complexes, where M = La and n = 2 (1) or M = Nd and n = 1 (2), were synthesized by reacting M(NO₃)₃ (M = La, Nd, K₃[Cr(NCS)₆]) and nicotinic acid (C₅H₅NCOO) in aqueous solution.

Different hydrate compositions of the given compounds may be due to the specific features of intermolecular interactions in their structures.     

ReV‐Phthalocyaninate und ReV‐Tetraphenylporphyrinate mit Oxo‐Liganden: Synthese,Eigenschaften und Kristallstruktur

Re^V‐Phthalocyaninates and Re^V‐Tetraphenylporphyrinates: Synthesis, Properties, and Crystal Structure Hexa‐coordinated Re^V phthalocyaninates (pc) and Re^V tetraphenylporphyrinates (tpp) of the type [Re(O)(X)p] (p: pc, tpp) with X = OCH₃, ReO₄, Cl/pc, F/pc, OH/tpp, [{Re(O)p}₂(μ‐O)] and (cat)^trans[Re(O)₂p] (cat: ⁿBu₄N, Et₄N/tpp) have been isolated and characterised by their UV‐Vis‐NIR, IR and resonance Raman (RR) spectra. In the RR spectra, the intensity of the (Re=O) and (Re–X) stretching vibrations (ν(Re=O/–X)) in [Re(O)(X)p] and [{Re(O)p}₂(μ‐O)] is selectively enhanced with excitation in coincidence with O → Re–CT between ca 19000 and 22000 cm^–1. In accordance to selection rules, data of ν(Re=O/–X) compare well with those of the complementary IR spectra. Because of the trans influence ν(Re=O) depends on the axial ligand X, ranging from 940 to 1010 cm^–1. The crystallographic characterization of [Re(O)(ReO₄)tpp] · CHCl₃ ( 1 ), [{Re(O)tpp}₂(μ‐O)] · py ( 2 ), (ⁿBu₄N)^trans[Re(O)₂tpp] ( 3 ), and (Et₄N)^trans[Re(O)₂tpp] · 2 H₂O ( 4 ) is described. The tpp centered Re atom is in a distorted octahedron of four N atoms of the porphyrinate and two axial O atoms in a mutual trans position. Average Re–N distances are 2.062 Å in 1 , 2.086 Å in 2 , 2.089 Å in 3 , and 2.082/2.086 Å in 4 . The Re–O distance of the terminal rhenyl group varies from 1.64(1) Å ( 1 ), 1.73(1)/1.70(1) Å ( 2 ) to 1.80(1) Å ( 4 ), that of the monodentate rhenate(VII) from 1.70(1) to 1.75(1) Å. The Re–O distances in the bridge of the linear O=Re–O–Re=O skeleton in 2 are 1.95(1)/1.89(1) Å. In 1 , with a bent O=Re–O^ ReO₃ moiety (∢(Re–O^ReO₃) = 143(1)°) and a mostly ionic coordinated rhenate(VII), these distances differ significantly (2.20(1) Å vs 1.75(1) Å). The porphyrinate in 1 is saucer‐shaped with a distal rhenate(VII), and the tpp centered Re atom is displaced by 0.31 Å out of the (N)₄ plane towards the rhenyl‐O atom.

Pentacoordinate iron(III) porphyrin carboxylates: Synthesis,physicochemical characteristics and x-ray crystal structure of acetato(5, 10, 15, 20-tetraparatolylporphyrinato) iron(III)

Carboxylatoiron(III) porphyrins have been synthesised by the action of carboxylic acids on the [(por)Fe]₂O dimers. ¹H NMR and ESR data of the isolated products are in accordance with pentacoordinate high spin 5/2 ferric complexes, the iron atom being displaced out of the plane of the porphyrin ligand. IR spectra show ν(CO) and ν(CO) bands separated by 356–409 cm^?1. The magnitude of this separation suggests coordination between the metal centre and the carboxylate group via one oxygen atom. Magnetic susceptibility measurements from 5 to 120 K lead to the value of μ = 5.88 B.M.. The X-ray structure of acetato (5, 10, 15, 20-tetra p-tolyporphyrinato) iron(III) confirms the above deductions.

Two Novel CuII Phenanthroline Adipato Complexes with π‐π Stacking Interactions: [Cu(phen)2(C6H8O4)] · 4.5 H2O and [(Cu2(phen)2Cl2)(C6H8O4)] · 4 H2O

The blue copper complex compounds [Cu(phen)₂(C₆H₈O₄)] · 4.5 H₂O ( 1 ) and [(Cu₂(phen)₂Cl₂)(C₆H₈O₄)] · 4 H₂O ( 2 ) were synthesized from CuCl₂, 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) and adipic acid in CH₃OH/H₂O solutions. [Cu(phen)₂‐ (C₆H₈O₄)] complexes and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules form the crystal structure of ( 1 ) (P1 (no. 2), a = 10.086(2) Å, b = 11.470(2) Å, c = 16.523(3) Å, α = 99.80(1)°, β = 115.13(1)°, γ = 115.13(1)°, V = 1617.5(5) ų, Z = 2). The Cu atoms are square‐pyramidally coordinated by four N atoms of the phen ligands and one O atom of the adipate anion (d(Cu–O) = 1.989 Å, d(Cu–N) = 2.032–2.040 Å, axial d(Cu–N) = 2.235 Å). π‐π stacking interactions between phen ligands are responsible for the formation of supramolecular assemblies of [Cu(phen)₂(C₆H₈O₄)] complex molecules into 1 D chains along [111].

The Cu atoms are fivefold coordinated by two Cl atoms, two N atoms of phen ligands and one O atom of the adipate anion, forming [CuCl₂N₂O] square pyramids with an axial Cl atom (d(Cu–O) = 1.958 Å, d(Cu–N) = 2.017–2.033 Å, d(Cu–Cl) = 2.281 Å; axial d(Cu–Cl) = 2.724 Å). Two square pyramids are condensed via the common Cl–Cl edge to centrosymmetric [Cu₂Cl₂N₄O₂] dimers, which are connected via the adipate anions to form the [(Cu₂(phen)₂Cl₂)(C₆H₈O₄)_2/2] chains. The supramolecular 3 D network results from π‐π stacking interactions between the chains. H₂O molecules are located in tunnels.
