Lanthanoid Peroxo Complexes with μ₃‐η²:η²:η²‐(O₂^2—) Coordination. Crystal Structures of [Ln₄(O₂)₂Cl₈(Py)₁₀] · Py mit Ln = Sm, Eu, Gd The four‐nuclear peroxo complexes [Ln₄(O₂)₂Cl₈(Py)₁₀]·py (py = pyridine) with Ln = Sm ( 1 ·py), Eu ( 2 ·py) und Gd ( 3 ·py) are formed as pale yellow ( 1 ·py) and colourless ( 2 ·py and 3 ·py) crystals by action of atmospheric oxygen on heated solutions of the anhydrous trichlorides LnCl₃ in pyridine/ diacetone alcohol (4‐hydroxy‐4‐methyl‐2‐pentanone). According to the X‐ray structural analyses the three complexes crystallize isostructural in the triclinic space group PP1¯ with two formula units per unit cell. 1—3 form centrosymmetrical molecular structures, in which the four lanthanoid atoms in coplanar array are linked via the two peroxo groups in a hitherto unobserved μ₃‐η²:η²:η² coordination. Additionally, they are bonded by four �μchloro bridges. Two of the Ln atoms complete their coordination sphere by three pyridine molecules each, the other two by two chlorine atoms and two pyridine molecules. The gadolinium compound is additionally characterized by its complete vibrational spectrum (i.r. and Raman).     

Darstellung und Struktur der Komplexverbindungen trans‐[CoIII(py)4F2][H2F3] und [Pd(py)4]F2 · 1,5 HF · 2 H2O

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of the Complexes trans ‐[Co^III(py)₄F₂][H₂F₃] and [Pd(py)₄]F₂ · 1.5 HF · 2 H₂O The cobalt complex trans‐[Co(III)(py)₄F₂][H₂F₃] ( 1 ) has been prepared by electrochemical oxidation of CoF₂ in a pyridine/HF mixture and the palladium complex [Pd(py)₄]F₂ · 1.5 HF · 2 H₂O ( 2 ) has been obtained via halogen exchange between Pd(py)₂Cl₂ and AgF₂ in pyridine. 1 and 2 crystallize in the space group C2/c with a = 27.928(14), b = 9.019(3), c = 18.335(8) Å, β = 113.41(3)° for 1 and a = 28.183(9), b = 9.399(3), c = 17.397(6) Å, β = 104.66(3)° for 2 , respectively. Concerning the shape and location of the M(py)₄ fragments 1 and 2 are isostructural. The metal atoms occupy special positions in their unit cells with the result that four complex atoms have C₂ symmetry and four complex cations have C_i symmetry giving a total of Z = 8. In 1 two F^– ions complete an octahedral coordination around the Co atoms (Co–F 1.820(2) to 1.834(3) Å). In 2 the shortest Pd–F distance is 3.031(2) Å. This precludes the existence of Pd–F bonds. In 1 one can identify H₂F₃^– groups. In 2 there are larger aggregates, consisting of F^–, HF, and H₂O subunits, connected by H‐bridges. In spite of these differences, both complexes belong to the same type of structure, which may be of a common type M^x+(py)₄F_x · y HF · z H₂O.

The title compound [La(phen)₂(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₂](NO₃) · 2(phen)(H₂O) with phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline was prepared by the stoichiometric reaction of La(NO₃)₃ · 6 H₂O and 1,10‐phenanthroline monohydrate in a CH₃OH–H₂O solution.

The La atom is 10‐fold coordinated by four N atoms of two bidentate chelating phen ligands and six O atoms of two H₂O molecules and two bidentate chelating NO₃^2– ligands with d(La–O) = 2.522–2.640 Å and d(La–N) = 2.689–2.738 Å. The intermolecular π‐π stacking interactions play an essential role in the formation of two different 2 D layers parallel to (001), which are formed by complex cations and uncoordinating phen molecules, respectively. The uncoordinated NO₃^– anions and H₂O molecules are sandwiched between the cationic and phen layers.

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.

Attempted synthesis of a heteroleptic Sm^II amido‐alkyl complex by the reaction of 2 with KCH₂Ph produced compound 3 due to ligand redistribution.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Dinuclear Copper(II) Complex, [Cu2(phen)2(H2O)2(OH)2](HCO3)2 · 6 H2O with phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline

Dark blue plate‐like crystals of [Cu₂(phen)₂ · (H₂O)₂(OH)₂](HCO₃)₂ · 6 H₂O were obtained from a CH₃OH–H₂O solution containing CuCl₂, 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen), sebacic acid and Na₂CO₃. The crystal structure (triclinic, P 1 (no. 2), a = 8.118(1), b = 9.624(1), c = 10.536(1) Å, α = 81.35(1)°, β = 88.51(1)°, γ = 75.77(1)°, Z = 1, R = 0.0332, wR² = 0.0981 for 4163 observed reflections (F ≥ 2σ(F ) out of 4595 unique reflections) consists of divalent [Cu₂(phen)₂(H₂O)₂(OH)₂]²⁺ complex cations, anionic (HCO₃)₂^2– dimers and H₂O molecules. The divalent complex cations (d(Cu…Cu) = 2.905(1) Å) are centered at inversion centers. The Cu atoms are fivefold square‐pyramidally coordinated by two nitrogen and three oxygen atoms from one bidentate chelating phen ligand, two bridging hydroxide groups and one axial water molecule (d(Cu–N)phen = 2.021(2), 2.024(2) Å; d(Cu–O)_OH = 1.941(1), 1.949(1) Å; d(Cu–O)_H2O = 2.254(2) Å). The divalent complex cations are stacked to form 2 D layers parallel (001) with 1 D π‐π stacking interactions along [100] via the terminal phen rings.

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.

The structures of four compounds with building blocks containing these ligands are reported: In [BaCr₂(bipy)₂(1, 2‐dtox)₄(H₂O)₂] Barium ions and pairs of Cr(bipy)(1, 2‐dtox)₂ complexes form linear chains by the bisbidentate coordination of the dithiooxalate ligands towards Ba²⁺ and Cr³⁺.

In [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O the 1, 2‐dithiosquarato ligand shows a rare example of S‐coordination towards manganese(II). The sulfur atoms of cis‐MnO₂S₄‐polyedra are weakly coordinated towards the axial sites of square‐planar NiN₄‐centers, thus forming a zig‐zag‐chain of Mn···Ni···Mn···Ni polyhedra.

Both compounds are formed selectively depending on the reaction and crystallization conditions. In 2 the Pb^II atoms are coordinated either by six bridging I^– ligands in the two-dimensional [Pb₅I₁₄]^4– network or by six DMF ligands in the [Pb(dmf)₆]²⁺ cations. In contrast, (Me₃N–C₂H₄–NMe₃)₂[Pb₂I₇]I ( 3 ) contains non-coordinating I^– anions between the iodoplumbate layers. The iodoplumbate anions in 2 and 3 consist of face and corner sharing PbI₆ octahedra, whereas in 1 PbI₆ and PbI₅(dmf) octahedra share common edges to form a one-dimensional polymeric section of the PbI₂ structure.

Ln2(ClO4)2(H2I2O10) · 8H2O (Ln = Sm,Gd), a Lanthanide Perchlorate Mesodiperiodate forming a Novel Layer Structure

By slow evaporation of solutions containing Ln(ClO₄)₃ (Ln = Sm, Gd), 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 P2₁/c. They contain Ln³⁺ ions, which are coordinated by [H₂I₂O₁₀]^4— anions forming two‐dimensional, cationic networks. These are separated by perchlorate ions, forming a layered structure.
