The molecule has a triangular Re₂ core coordinated propellerwise by three PPh₃ ligands in the molecular plane with virtual C_3k symmetry.     

Hydrothermal synthesis and structure determination of Ag3(VVO2){O3PCH2PO3} or MIL-42: a new vanadium(V) methylendiphosphonate inserting silver cations

A new formulated compound, Ag₃(V^VO₂){O₃PCH₂PO₃} or MIL-42, was synthesized hydrothermally at 170 °C. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P2₁/n (n°14)) with lattice parameters a=8.9404(2) Å, b=8.0226(2) Å, c=11.7395(1) Å and β=100.720(1)°, V=827.32(3) ų, Z=4. Its structure was determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data (R₁(F_o)=0.0231, wR₂(F_o²)=0.0588 for 2126 unique reflections with I≥2σ(I)). MIL-42 is three-dimensional with one-dimensional chains of corner linked trimeric units related by sheets of Ag⁺ in tetrahedral and five-fold coordination. The chains are built up from V^VO₅ trigonal bipyramids; one edge of their equatorial plane is chelated by one methylendiphosphonate group. The silver sheets are built up from corner-sharing hexamers in which silver exhibits tetrahedral and five-fold coordination.     

Direct Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Thermal Kinetics of Supramolecular Complex [Co（H2O）6]·（Hnip）2·（H2nip）2·（DMA）2·（H2O）8 （nip=5-nitroisophthalate, DMA=CH3NHCH3）

The crystal of [Co（H2O）6]·（Hnip）2·（H2nip）2·（OMA）2·（H2O）8 has been cultured using direct method and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffractometry, elemental analysis and FTIR spectroscopy. It crystallizes in triclinic system, P-1 space group with the cell parameters of a=0.7012（1） nm, b=1.1378（2） nm, c=1.6612（3） nm, α= 84.92（3）°, β=85.19（3）°, γ=85.91（3）°, V= 1.3128（5） nm^3, Z=1, Dc= 1.573 g·cm^-3. Final R indices [1〉2σ（I）] are： R1 =0.0279, wR2=0.0765 while R indices for all data are： R1 =0.0327, wR2=0.0806. The Co coordination octahadra are each surrounded by two Hnip, two H2nip, two DMA and eight water molecules that are linked by hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions. Thermal analyses of DSC and TG-DTG have been performed on the complex to predict its thermal decomposition mechanism and determine the most probable kinetic model function using Kissinger, Ozawa, integral and differential methods.
