The structure of 1 consists of a [V₄O₁₂]⁴⁻ cluster covalently attached to two {Cd(phen)₂}²⁺ fragments, in which the [V₄O₁₂]⁴⁻ cluster adopts a chair-like configuration. In the structure of 2, the [V₄O₁₂]⁴⁻ cluster is isolated. And the complex formed a layer structure via hydrogen bonds between the [V₄O₁₂]⁴⁻ unit and crystallization water molecules.     

新配合物[Cd(H2O)2(phen)2](PA)2的制备及晶体结构

The new compound was prepared by the reaction of Cd(ClO₄)₂·6H₂O,1,10-phenanthroline (phen)and picric acid (HPA)(ratio 1∶3∶2) in methanol-aqueous solution refluxing for 4 hours. The crystals used for X-ray analysis was obtained by slow evaporation of the solution at room temperature. The crystal compound is in triclinic with space group with a=1.1363(4)nm,b=1.2593(2)nm,c=1.3972(4)nm,α=93.97(2)?,β=100.84(3)?,γ=106.29(2)?,Z=2,V=1.8690(9)nm³,D_c=1.715g·cm^-3, μ(MoKα)=0.677mm^-1,F(000)=972,R=0.0907,wR=0.2240.

Synthesis, DNA-binding and photocleavage studies of [Ru(phen)2(pbtp)] and [Ru(bpy)2(pbtp)] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine; pbtp = 4,5,9,11,14-pentaaza-benzo[b]triphenylene)

Based on the ligand dppz (dppz = dipyrido-[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine), a new ligand pbtp (pbtp = 4,5,9,11,14-pentaaza-benzo[b]triphenylene) and its polypyridyl ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(phen)₂(pbtp)]²⁺ (1) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and [Ru(bpy)₂(pbtp)]²⁺ (2) (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ES-MS and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The DNA-binding of these complexes were investigated by spectroscopic methods and viscosity measurements. The experimental results indicate that both complexes 1 and 2 bind to CT-DNA in classical intercalation mode, and can enantioselectively interact with CT-DNA. It is interesting to note that the pbtp ruthenium(II) complexes, in contrast to the analogous dppz complexes, do not show fluorescent behavior when intercalated into DNA. When irradiated at 365 nm, both complexes promote the photocleavage of pBR 322 DNA.     

Crystal structures of [Ru(terpy)(HPB)(H2O)](PF6)2 and [Ru(terpy)(HPB)(2-picoline)](PF6) and the kinetics studies of the aqua ligand substitution by pyridine and substituted pyridines

The crystal structures of [Ru(terpy)(HPB)(H₂O)](PF₆)₂, 1, and [Ru(terpy)(HPB)(2-picoline)](PF₆), 2, (where terpy = 2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine and HPB = 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-benzoxazole) have been determined. Both structures show slightly distorted octahedral coordination around the ruthenium center. In complex 1, the imine nitrogen of the HPB ligand occupies an axial position and is trans to the aqua ligand whereas in complex 2, the imine nitrogen is trans to the nitrogen of the 2-picoline ligand. The Ru-N(2-picoline) bond distance is much longer than the other Ru-N bonds in the complex due to steric effects from the methyl group of 2-picoline. In both complexes, the phenolate oxygen of the HPB ligand is in the equatorial position and trans to the center nitrogen of the terpyridine. The reaction of [Ru(terpy)(HPB)(H₂O)](PF₆)2 with pyridine and its analogs, 2-picoline and 4-picoline in dichloromethane was monitored spectrophotometrically. There is an initial reduction of the [Ru(III)-H₂O] complex to [Ru(II)-H₂O] complex prior to the substitution of the aqua ligand. The values of the activation parameters indicate that the substitution of the aqua ligand by pyridine, 2-picoline and 4-picoline follow an associative mechanism.

Syntheses and crystal structures of [Mg(HF)2](SbF6)2 and [Ca(HF)2](SbF6)2: new examples of HF acting as a ligand to metal centres

[Mg(HF)₂](SbF₆)₂ and [Ca(HF)₂](SbF₆)₂ monocrystals were grown from the corresponding hexafluoroantimonates(V) dissolved in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride. [Mg(HF)₂](SbF₆)₂ crystallizes in the space group Pnma (no. 62) with a=1249.1(4) pm, b=1230.2(4) pm, c=699.1(2) pm, V=1.0742(6) nm³, Z=4. Magnesium is octahedrally coordinated by six fluorine atoms from which two belong to two HF molecules. The structure can be represented by alternating rows of magnesium and antimony atoms running parallel to the c-axis. Magnesium atoms are connected by cis bridging Sb(2)F₆ units along the a-axis and by trans bridging Sb(1)F₆ units along the b-axis. In this way a three-dimensional network is formed.[Ca(HF)₂](SbF₆)₂ crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n (no. 14) with a=935.2(3) pm, b=1088.7(3) pm, c=1104.8(3) pm, β=106.697(5)°, V=1.0774(5) nm³, Z=4. The coordination sphere around the calcium atom consists of eight fluorine atoms which define the vertices of an Archimedean antiprism. The two HF molecules directly coordinate the calcium atom and their fluorine atoms are placed in the corners of different square faces of the Archimedean antiprism. The Ca-F(HF) distances are shorter than the Ca-F(Sb) distances. The Sb(1)F₆ and Sb(2)F₆ groups have four equatorial bridging fluorine atoms, while the Sb(3)F₆ groups have only two bridging trans F ligands. The Ca atoms in the [−1,0,1] plane are connected by equatorial F ligands of Sb(1)F₆ and Sb(2)F₆ units, forming a [Ca(SbF₆)⁺]_n layer. These layers are connected by trans bridging Sb(3)F₆ groups. HF molecules occupy the space between these layers and additionally contribute to the connection between the layers by hydrogen bonding.

The organic-inorganic hybrid materials vanadium oxide [V^IVO₂(phen)₂]·6H₂O (1) and [(2,2′-bipy)₂V^VO₂](H₂BO₃)·3H₂O (2) have been conventional and hydrothermal synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analyses, respectively. Although the method and the ligand had been used in the syntheses of the compounds (1) and (2) are different, they almost possess similar structure. They all exhibit the distorted octahedral [VO₂N₄] unit with organonitrogen donors of the phen and 2,2′-bipy ligands, respectively, which coordinated directly to the vanadium oxide framework. And they are both non-mixed-valence complexes. But the compound (1) is isolated, and the compound (2) consists of a cation of [(2,2′-bipy)₂V^VO₂]⁺ and an anion of (H₂BO₃)⁻. So the valence of vanadium of (1) and (2) are tetravalence and pentavalence, respectively. Meanwhile it is noteworthy that π-π stacking interaction between adjacent phen and 2,2′-bipy groups in compounds 1 and 2 also play a significant role in stabilization of the structure. Thus, the structure of [V^IVO₂(phen)₂]·6H₂O and [(2,2′-bipy)₂V^VO₂](H₂BO₃)·3H₂O are both further extended into interesting three-dimensional supramolecular.

Two new coordination polymers of copper(I) chloride and pyrazinic acid (pyz-H), namely [CuCl(pyz-H)₂]·2H₂O (1) and [Cu₂Cl₂(pyz)(H₂O)]·H₂O (2) have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic, magnetic and crystallographic methods. The overall physical measurements suggest that 1 is diamagnetic and contains monodentate N-pyrazinic acid, whereas 2 is paramagnetic and contains tridentate N,N′,O- chelating bridging pyrazinato anion. In the structure of 1 as elucidated by X-ray single crystal analysis, the asymmetric units [CuCl(pyz)₂] are linked together forming a zigzag chain with tetrahedral copper(I) environment.

Hydrogen bonds of the type O–HO are formed between lattice and coordinated water, and carboxylate oxygens of pyrazinato ligand giving rise to a three-dimensional network. The Cl⁻ anions act as bridging ligands in both complexes. The magnetic data of complex 2 have been measured from 2 to 300 K and discussed.

The Cu(1) atom has a distorted square pyramidal geometry, whereas the Cu(2) and Cu(3) atoms have a distorted elongated tetragonal octahedral geometry. The magnetic studies indicate that complex 1 show typical antiferromagnetic behaviors at low temperature, which is attributed to the superexchange couplings between Cu(II) centers through μ-O bridge in the phosphonate layers.
