When trinuclear molybdenum cluster compound with "loose coordination site", Mo_3(μ_3-S)(μ-S)_3(μ-dtp)(dtp)_3·H_2O(A) (dtp=diethyldithiophos-phinato anion), is reacted with an excess of imidazole, the H_2O ligand and the bidentate bridging ligand μ-dtp are found to be simultaneously substituted by the imidazole to form the title compound. The title crystal belongs to the space group P(?), Z =2, with the following unit cell parameters: a=14.465(2), b=14.653(4), c=14.886(6), α=99.36(3),β=93.11(2),γ=114.29(2),V=2812(3). The crystalline compound consists of an ordered array of the cluster cation and dtp anion with acetone as packed molecule. The cation possesses a symmetry of C_3. Three Mo atoms form basically an equilateral triangle with three Mo—Mo bond lengths of 2.763 (1), 2.762(1), 2.756(1) respectively.

Synthesis,crystal structures and spectral properties of cobalt (Ⅱ) complexes:[ CoL (N_3) ] ·ClO_4 and CoL (N_3)_2 [L=tris ((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl) methyl) amine

Two monomeric cobalt(Ⅱ)complexes,[CoL(N3)] ClO4(1)and CoL(N3)2(2),where L is tris((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methyl)amine,were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction technique.Complex 1 is five coordinated with one azide nitrogen atom and four nitrogen atoms of the tris((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-l-yl)-methyl)amine ligand,and the metal center is in distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment.Complex 2 is six coordinated distorted octahedron with the two azide nitrogen atoms and four nitrogen donors of the tris((3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-methyl)amine ligand.The solution behaviors of the title complexes have been further investigated by UV-Vis,and 1H NMR analysis.It is found that the formation of 1 and 2 depends on the molar ratio of the azide ion to metal salt and ligand Complex 1 attached with one azide group is more stable and easy to generate than complex 2 incorporated with two azide groups,and the reasons were well discussed.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Co(II)-Nitronyl Complex [Co(IM2-Py)(PCA)(N_3)_2]

1 INTRODUCTION The design and synthesis of molecule-based mag-netic materials is one of the major subjects of mate-rials science. Nitronyl nitroxides acting as useful pa-ramagnetic building blocks have been extensively usedto assemble molecular magnetic materials in the pastfew years[1～5].

Mean-while, the azide anion is a versatile ligand which canlink the transition metal atoms with different coor-dinatio…     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of μ-phenolato copper (Ⅱ) binuclear complexes with different exogenous bridges

The syntheses and magnetic properties are reported for a series of copper(Ⅱ) complexes prepared from a pentadentate binucleating ligand 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol di(benzoyl-hydrazone) (H3L). These complexes incorporate different exogenous ions (X-) into a bridging position to form copper(Ⅱ) binuclear complexes of the formula [Cu2(H2L)X]2+, where X-= Br-(1), Cl-(2), HO-(3), C2H5O-(4) and C3H3N2- (5). The complexes have been characterized with variable temperature magnetic susceptibility (4.2-300 K) and the observed data were fit to those from a modified Bleaney-Bowers equation by least-squares method, giving the exchange integral 2J = -6.2 cm-1 for 1, -76.4 cm-1 for 2, -241.9 cm-1 for 3, -231.1 cm-1 for 4 and -343.8 cm-1 for 5. This suggested that there is an antiferromagnetic interaction between the Cu(Ⅱ) ions and the sequence of the effect of some exogenous bridging ligands on magnetic coupling is corresponding to that in spectrochemical series.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Dinuclear Cu(II) Complex with Tridentate Schiff Base and Azido Bridge

1 INTRODUCTION The azido ligand is an efficient superexchange path-way for propagating magnetic interaction between theparamagnetic centers, such as copper(II), giving di-nuclear, tetranuclear, 1D, 2D and 3D complexes[1～4].The versatility of this ligand due to its diverse bin-ding modes leads to the variation in magnetic pro-perties that depend on its orientation with respect tothe magnetic centers.

MOLECULAR AND CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF (μ-4,4'-DIPYRIDYL)-BIS [DIAQUA-IMINODIACETATO-COBALT(Ⅱ)] TETRAHYDRATE {[CoNH(CH_2COO)_2(H_2O)_2]_2C_10H_8N_2}·4H_2O

<正> Mr=679.8,monoclinic, C2/m,a = 21.146(3), b = 12.613(1), c = 5.202(3)A,β= 93.26(2) ,V= 1385.1A3,Z = 2,Dx=1.63,Dm=1.64 g.cm-3 λ(MoKα)=0.71073A,μ=13.3cm-1,final R=0.036 for 1427 observed reflections. Bach cobalt atom in the title complex is in six-coordination environment with one bridging dipy ligand, two terminal H2O ligands and one tridentate ininodiacetic acid ligand. The "facial configuration" of the coaplex is compared with "the meridional one" found in corresponding Cu(II) complex.The bridge ligand dipy is tilted out of the coordination plane (N(1)-N(2)-O(1)-O(2) or N(1)-N(2)-0(1')-0(2')) by 47°,which may provide a spin-spin exchange pathway. Another possible magnetic exchange pathway is in the hydrogen-bonding linkage.     

Trinuclear Cu(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) complexes bridged by μ_3-carbonato anion

The trinuclear Cu(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) complexes [(CuTPA)_3(μ3-CO_3)] (ClO_4)_4(1) and [(ZnTPA)_3(μ_3-CO_3)] (ClO_4)_4 (2) (TPA=tri(pyridylmethyl) amine) have been synthesized. X-ray structure analysis of the two complexes proves that CO_3~(2-) anion has an unusual triply bridging ligand, bridging three CuTPA and ZnTPA units respectively, and assembles new trinuclear complexes. The CO_3_(2-) comes from atmospheric CO_2. The structure of each trinuclear unit consists of three copper or zinc atoms in a five-coordinate triangular bipyramidal environment. The [(CuTPA)_3 (μ_3-CO_3)] (ClO_4)_4 compound shows a very weak antiferromagnetic coupling.

STUDY ON STRUCTURE OF SULFUR-BRIDGED TRANSITION METAL CLUSTERS——CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF (C_5H_7S_2)_3 [Mo_3(μ_3-S)_2 (μ_2-Cl)_3Cl_6]

The compound (C_5H_7S_2)_3[Mo_3 (μ_3--S)_2 (μ_2--Cl)_3 Cl_6] forms dark black octahedralcrystals with the following crystallographic parameters: a=22.885(10)A, c=25.407(7)A. Thespace group is I4_1/α, Z=16, ρ_(obs.)=2.073g/cm~3, ρ_(calc.)=2.126g/cm~3. The 1621 independentreflections with I≥3σ were collected on a CAD-4 four-circle diffractometer by means of MoK_αradiation. The structure was solved by three-dimensional Patterson synthesis and refined byleast squares technique to a final discrepancy factor of R=0.056. The results of our investiga-tion reveal that the molecule consists of a trinuclear Mo cluster anion and three planar mono-cations.surrounding the cluster anion. As the core of the anion the triad of Mo atoms, possessing anequilateral triangular configuration, is linked by two μ3--S bridging atoms and three μ2--Clatoms. Besides, two terminal Cl atoms are attached to each Mo atom to form an octahedralconfiguration. The diamagnetism and the short Mo-Mo distances (2.556 A, 2.641 A, 2.653 A)clearly indicate the existence of Mo-Mo bonds. The anion as a whole has an idealized D_(3h) localsymmetry.     

RESEARCH ON TRINUCLEAR MOLYBDENUM CLUSTER COMPOUNDS——CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF (C_5H_7S_2)_3[Mo_3(μ_3-S)(μ_2-S_2)_3Cl_7]

The space group of the title crystal is Pnam. The unit cell parameters are: a=17.226(4), b=14.306(7), c=15.074(4); z=4, Dobs=2.03g·cm~(-3), D_(calc)=2.063g·cm~(-3). The crystal structure was solved by the heavy atom method and refined by the full-matrix least-squares until the final conventional discrepancy factor was reduced to 0.068. The results of the investigation show that the crystal consists of trinuclear Mo cluster anions [Mo_3(μ_3-S)(μ_2-S_2)_3Cl_7]~(3-) together with planar (C_5H_7S_2)~ monocations, surrounding the cluster anions. In the cluster anion three Mo atoms, forming a nearly equilateral triangle (2.755(1), 2.755(1), 2.743(1)), are bound by a μ_3-S bridging atom, while each pair of Mo atoms is bridged further by a μ_2-S_2 ligand. Besides, each Mo atom is coordinated to two terminal Cl atoms, so that the coordination sphere of each Mo atom approaches closely a pentagonal bipyramid. In addition, a single Gl atom, not at all involved in the coordination spheres of the three Mo atom
