In octahedral Co(III) complexes, two radicals of 1,2-cyclohexanedione dioxime are bound by a hydrogen bond and are located in the equatorial plane. The intramolecular (– and H bonds) and intermolecular (C–H···F and H bonds) interactions in the crystal are discussed.

The aqueous NaVO₃ solution with an aqueous solution of CoCl₂·6H₂O were used for generating 1 and aqueous CaCl₂·2H₂O and NH₄VO₃ solution were employed for creating 2. Compound 1 consisted of discrete hexa-aqua-cobalt [Co(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cations, [H₂V₁₀O₂₈]⁴⁻ anions and non-coordination water molecules. Compound 2 were composed of hepta-aqua-calcium [Ca(H₂O)₇]²⁺ cations, ammonium NH₄ ⁺ and [V₁₀O₂₈]⁶⁻ anion. For compound 2, the distorted pentagonal bipyramid [Ca(H₂O)₇]²⁺ is uncommon.

Synthesis, properties, and thermal decomposition of compounds [Co(En)3][Fe(CN)6] · 2H2O and [Co(En)3]4[Fe(CN)6]3 · 15H2O

Binary complex salts, [Co(En)₃][Fe(CN)6] · 2H₂O and [Co(En)₃]₄[Fe(CN)₆]₃ · 15H₂O, are synthesized. The properties of the salts and their thermolysis in air, dihydrogen, and argon are studied.

These crystals were characterized using elemental analysis, IR, TG-DTA, and XRD. It was found that the polyoxometalate anions maintained Wells-Dawson structure for crystal 1 and lacunary Wells-Dawson structure for crystal 2. Thermal analysis showed that crystal 1 lost the water of crystallization at 132 ℃, whereas crystal 2 lost the water of crystallization at 100 ℃. Crystal 1 could reversibly desorb and adsorb water molecules and its crystal structure could be restored after re-adsorbing the water molecules. It was also found from the XRD patterns that the void size of crystal 2 is smaller compared with that of crystal 1, which is attributed to the higher anion charges.

[Ni(cien)2]2[Mn(NCS)6]·H2O的合成、晶体结构

硫氰酸根的结构为N三C-S-,其两端的N原子和S原子分别有一对和三对孤对电子,因此,硫氰酸根可采用多种不同的配位模式与金属离子发生配位.硫氰酸根可作为单齿配体与一个金属离子配位,形成M-SCN或M-NCS的单核配合物,也可以作为桥联配体同时与两个、三个甚至四个金属离子配位形成多核配合物[1-3];另一方面,硫氰酸根是一个具有一定共轭性的偶极子,可传递磁相作用.因此,选择硫氰酸根作为桥联配体,将多个顺磁金属离子桥联形成一维、二维或三维结构的多核金属配合物分子,并研究它们的磁性已成为分子磁学的一个研究领域[4-6].本文仅报道标题配合物的合成与晶体结构.     

Probing spin density and local structure in the Prussian blue analogues CsCd[Fe/Co(CN)6]·0.5H2O and Cd3[Fe/Co(CN)6]2·15H2O with solid-state MAS NMR spectroscopy

Magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy is used to study the local structure and spin delocalisation in Prussian blue analogues (PBAs). We selected two common archetypes of PBAs (A(I)M(II)[M(III)(CN)(6)]·xH(2)O and M(II)(3)[M(III)(CN)(6)](2)·xH(2)O, in which A(I) is an alkali ion, and M(II) and M(III) are transition-metal ions) that exhibit similar cubic frameworks but different microscopic structures. Whereas the first type of PBA contains interstitial alkali ions and does not exhibit any [M(III)(CN)(6)](3-) vacancies, the second type of PBA exhibits [M(III)(CN)(6)](3-) vacancies, but does not contain inserted alkali ions. In this study, we selected Cd(II) as a divalent metal in order to use the (113)Cd nuclei (I=1/2) as a probe of the local structure. Here, we present a complete MAS NMR study on two series of PBAs of the formulas Cd(II)(3)[Fe(III)(x)Co(III)(1-x)(CN)(6)](2)·15H(2)O with x=0 (1), 0.25 (2), 0.5 (3), 0.75 (4) and 1 (5), and CsCd(II)[Fe(III)(x)Co(III)(1-x)(CN)(6)]·0.5H(2)O with x=0 (6), 0.25 (7), 0.5 (8), 0.75 (9) and 1 (10). Interestingly, the presence of Fe(III) magnetic centres in the vicinity of the cadmium sites has a magnifying-glass effect on the NMR spectrum: it induces a striking signal spread such that the resolution is notably improved compared to that achieved for the diamagnetic PBAs. By doping the sample with varying amounts of diamagnetic Co(III) and comparing the NMR spectra of both types of PBAs, we have been able to give a view of the structure which is complementary to that usually obtained from X-ray diffraction studies. In particular, this study has shown that the vacancies are not randomly distributed in the mesoporous PBAs. Moreover the cadmium chemical shift, which is a measure of the hyperfine coupling, allows the estimation of the spin density on the cadmium nucleus, and consequently, the elucidation of the spin delocalisation mechanism in these compounds along with its dependency on structural parameters.     

Synthesis,characterization and 1H NMR studies of [Co(en)2(malH)2]ClO4·H2O

The trans-[Co(en)₂(malH)₂]ClO₄·H₂O complex was prepared by the reaction of sodium hydrogen malonate with [Co(en)₂(H₂O₂](ClO₄)₃ in the presence of a large concentration of perchlorate ion. It showed a three-band visible spectrum (γγ_max 357, 448 and 542.6 nm), diagnostic of a trans-MA₄B₂ system and gave characteristic IR bands as expected for a trans-bisethylenediamine cobalt(III) complex. The ¹H NMR spectrum in DMSO-d₆ revealed a broad band at 5.8 ppm assignable to the amino hydrogen and a single band at 2.68 for the ethylene group of the chelate ring. The

group of the hydrogen malonate ion appeared as a sharp singlet at 2.95 ppm and integration showed the presence of two bimalonate groups. The reactive methylene protons were found to be exchangeable. Ion association by counter ions of the complex ion in DMSO-d₆ showed no preference among amino protons. This is as expected for trans complexes with D_2h-symmetry.
