Novel coordination compounds: Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) cations with acesulfame/N,N-diethylnicotinamide ligands

Abstract

Five coordination complexes with Mn²⁺ (1), Co²⁺ (2), Ni²⁺ (3), Cu²⁺ (4), and Zn²⁺ (5) containing acesulfame (ace) and N,N-diethylnicotinamide (dena) ligands were synthesized and structural binding properties investigated. Four compounds (1, 2, 4, and 5) were examined with single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The structures containing Mn(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) were iso-structural. Six-coordination of metal cations were completed with two moles dena and four aqua ligands. The dena ligands were coordinated via pyridine nitrogen as neutral-monodentate. Charge stabilities of the complexes are complemented by two moles monoanionic ace ligands, located outside of the coordination unit. In the Cu(II) complex, the coordination is completed by acidic nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen atoms of two ace ligands and pyridine nitrogen of two moles dena ligands. The coordination to Cu(II) for ace ligands was monoanionic-bidentate. All metal cations in the structure are distorted octahedral. Thermal decomposition of complexes begins with removal of the aqua molecules from the structures and is completed by combustion of organic ligands. The final decomposition products of all structures have been identified as corresponding metal oxides. Some biological applications (anti-fungal/anti-bacterial) were studied using 1–5.     

Antimicrobial and anticancer activities of Schiff base ligand and its transition metal mixed ligand complexes with heterocyclic base

A new Schiff base ligand (HL) was prepared via a condensation reaction of quinoline‐2‐carboxaldhyde with 2‐aminophenol in a molar ratio of 1:1. Its transition metal mixed ligand complexes with 1,10‐phenanthroline (1,10‐phen) as co‐ligand were also synthesized in a 1:1:1 ratio. HL and its mixed ligand complexes were characterized using elemental analysis, infrared, ¹H NMR, mass and UV–visible spectroscopies, molar conductance, magnetic measurements, solid reflectance, thermal analysis, electron spin resonance and X‐ray diffraction. Molar conductance measurements showed that all complexes have an electrolytic nature, except Cd(II) complex. From elemental and spectral data, the formulae [M(L)(1,10‐phen)(H₂O)]Cl_x?nH₂O (where M = Cr(III) (x = n = 2), Mn(II) and Ni(II) (x = 1, n = 2), Fe(III) (x = n = 2), Co(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) (x = 1, n = 2)) and [Cd(L)(1,10‐phen)Cl]?3H₂O for the metal complexes have been proposed. The geometric structures of complexes were found to be octahedral. Powder X‐ray diffraction reflected the crystalline nature of the complexes; however, the Schiff base is amorphous. HL and its mixed ligand complexes were screened against Gram‐positive bacteria (Streptococcus pneumoniae and Bacillus subtilis) and Gram‐negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli). Antifungal activity was determined against Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans, the data showing that most complexes had activity less than that of the Schiff base while Mn(II), Fe(III) and Ni(II) complexes showed no significant antifungal activity. The anticancer activity of HL and its metal complexes was also studied against breast and colon cell lines. The metal complexes showed IC₅₀ higher than that of HL, especially the Cu(II) complex which showed the highest IC₅₀ against breast cell line.     

Synthesis,spectral and antimicrobial studies of rare earth metal complexes with Schiff-base hydrazone containing quinoline moiety

The synthesis and characterization of lanthanide(III) complexes with the Schiff-base hydrazone, o-hydroxyacetophenone-7-chloro-4-quinoline, (HL) are reported. The complexes were characterized by different physicochemical methods: mass spectrometry, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and IR, UV-visible, molar conductance and magnetic studies. They have the stoichiometry [Ln(L)₂(NO₃)]·nH₂O where Ln = La(III), Pr(III), Nd(II), Sm(III), Eu(III) and n = 1–3. The spectra of the complexes were interpreted by comparison with the spectrum of the free ligand. The Schiff-base ligand and its metal complexes were tested against one stain Gram +ve bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus), Gram ?ve bacteria (Escherichia coli), and Fungi (Candida albicans). The tested compounds exhibited high antimicrobial activities     

Synthesis,spectroscopic characterization and thermal studies of some rare earth metal complexes of unsymmetrical tetradentate Schiff base ligand

The solid complexes of La(III), Ce(III), Pr(III), Nd(III), Sm(III) and Gd(III) with 4-hydroxy-3-(1-{2-(2-hydroxy-benzylidene)-aminophenylimino}-thyl)-6-methy-pyran-2-one (H₂L) derived from o-phenylenediamine, 3-acetyl-6-methyl-(2H)pyran,2,4(3H)-dione (dehydroacetic acid or DHA) and salicylic aldehyde have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, conductometry, magnetic susceptibility, UV–visible, FTIR, ¹H NMR spectra, X-ray diffraction, and thermal analysis and screened for antimicrobial activity. The FTIR spectral data suggest that the ligand behaves as a dibasic tetradentate ligand with ONNO donar atoms sequence towards central metal ion. From the microanalytical data, the stoichiometry of the complexes has been found to be 1:1 (metal:ligand). The physico-chemical data suggest distorted octahedral geometry for La(III), Ce(III), Pr(III), Nd(III), Sm(III) and Gd(III) complexes. The X-ray diffraction data suggest monoclinic crystal system for La(III) and Ce(III) and orthorhombic crystal system for Pr(III) and Nd(III) complexes. Thermal behaviour (TGA/DTA) of the complexes was studied and kinetic parameters were determined by Horowitz–Metzger and Coats–Redfern methods. The ligand and their metal complexes were screened for antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Bacillus sp. Fungicidal activity against Aspergillus niger, Trichoderma and Fusarium oxysporum.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">bis</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N</Emphasis>-diethylnicotinamide) <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-chlorobenzoate complexes of Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II)

Three novel mixed ligand complexes of Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) with p-chlorobenzote and N,N-diethylnicotinamide were synthesised and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopic analysis, solid state UV-Vis spectrometric and magnetic susceptibility data. The thermal behavior of the complexes was studied by simultaneous TG-DTA methods in static air atmosphere and the mass spectra data were recorded. According to microanalytical results, formulas of complexes are C₃₄H₄₀N₄O₈ClNi, C₃₄H₄₀N₄O₈ClZn and C₃₄H₄₄N₄O₁₀ClCd. The complexes contain two moles of coordination waters, two moles p-chlorobenzoate and two mole N,N-diethylnicotinamide (dena) ligands per formula unit. In these complexes, the p-chlorobenzoate and N,N-diethylnicotinamide behave as monodentate ligand through acidic oxygen and nitrogen of pyridine ring. The decomposition pathways and the stability of the complexes are interpreted in the terms of the structural data. The final decomposition products were found to be as metal oxides.     

Coordination behaviour,molecular docking,density functional theory calculations and biological activity studies of some transition metal complexes of bis‐Schiff base ligand

Coordination compounds of Mn (II), Fe (III), Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Cd (II) ions were synthesized from reaction with Schiff base ligand 4,6‐bis((E)‐(2‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)ethylidene)amino)pyrimidine‐2‐thiol (HL) derived from the condensation of 4,6‐diaminopyrimidine‐2‐thiol and 2‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)acetaldehyde. Microanalytical data, magnetic susceptibility, infrared and ¹H NMR spectroscopies, mass spectrometry, molar conductance, powder X‐ray diffraction and thermal decomposition measurements were used to determine the structure of the prepared complexes. It was found that the coordination between metal ions and bis‐Schiff base ligand was in a molar ratio of 1:1, with formula [M (HL)(H₂O)₂] X_n (M = Mn (II), Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Cd (II), n = 2; Fe (III), n = 3). Diffuse reflectance spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements suggested an octahedral geometry for the complexes. The coordination between bis‐Schiff base ligand and metal ions was through NNNN donor sites in a tetradentate manner. After preparation of the complexes, biological studies were conducted using Gram‐positive (B. subtilis and S. aureus) and Gram‐negative (E. coli and P. aeruginosa) organisms. Metal complexes and ligand displayed acceptable microbial activity against both types of bacteria.     

Structure,biological and electrochemical studies of transition metal complexes from N,S,N′ donor ligand 8-(2-pyridinylmethylthio)quinoline

The semirigid tridentate 8-(2-pyridinylmethylthio)quinoline ligand (Q1) is shown to form the structurally characterized transition metal complexes [Cu(Q1)Cl₂] (1), [Co(Q1)(NO₃)₂] (2), [Cd(Q1)(NO₃)₂] (3), [Cd(Q1)I₂] (4). [Cu(Q1)₂](BF₄)₂·(H₂O)₂ (5), [Cu(Q1)₂](ClO₄)₂·(CH₃COCH₃)₂ (6), [Zn(Q1)₂](ClO₄)₂(H₂O)₂ (7), [Cd₂(Q1)₂Br₄] (8), [Ag₂(Q1)₂(ClO₄)₂] (9), and [Ag₂(Q1)₂(NO₃)₂] (10). Four types of structures have been observed: ML-type in complexes 1–4, in which the anions Cl⁻, NO₃⁻ or I⁻ also participate in the coordination; ML₂⁻ type in complexes 5–7 without direct coordination of the anions BF₄⁻ or ClO₄⁻ and with more (Cu²⁺) or less (Zn²⁺) distorted bis-fac coordinated Q1; M₂L₂-type in complex 8, in which two Br⁻ ions act as bridges between two metal ions; and M₂(μ-L)₂-type in complexes 9 and 10, in which the ligand bridges two anion binding and Ag–Ag bonded ions. Depending on electron configuration and size, different coordination patterns are observed with the bonds from the metal ions to N_pyridyl longer or shorter than those to N_quinoline. Typically Q1 acts as a facially coordinating tridentate chelate ligand except for the compounds 9 and 10 with low-coordinate silver(I). Except for 6 and 8, the complexes exhibit distinct constraining effects against both G(+) and G(-) bacteria. Complexes 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 have considerable antifungal activities and complexes 1, 5, 7, and 10 show selective effects to restrain certain botanic bacteria. Electrochemical studies show quasi-reversible reduction behavior for the copper(II) complexes 1, 5 and 6.

Solid polymers doped with rare earth metal compounds. III. Formation and stability of macromolecular complexes comprising neodymium nitrate and dipivaloylmethane in poly(ethylene oxide)

The solubility, complexation, and morphology in the Nd(NO₃)₃-PEO and Nd(Dpm)₃-PEO systems were investigated using the FTIR, DSC, TGA, WAXD, and SAXS techniques. In both systems, dissolution was verified by the absence of features characteristic of the bulk-phase dopants detectable with WAXD and DSC, and complexation was evident from the FTIR spectral shifts involving the stretching motions of the EO unit. The extent of the Nd³⁺-EO interaction was found to be much stronger with Nd(NO₃)₃ than Nd(Dpm)₃. As a consequence, a T_g elevation from 222K in pure PEO to 335K at an EO/Nd³⁺ ratio (defined as n) of between 4.0 and 5.6 was observed in the Nd(NO₃)₃-PEO system. Moreover, completely dry and amorphous complexes were obtained at n ≥ 5.6, while residual moisture accompanying complexes at n ≤ 4 was found to persist upon prolonged vacuum drying. Being intrinsically hygroscopic at all doping levels, the Nd(NO₃)₃-PEO system was found to absorb moisture from the atmosphere resulting in wet amorphous complexes, although precipitation of Nd(NO₃)₃)·6H₂O was observed at n ≤ 4. It was proposed that moisture present in the Nd(NO₃)₃-PEO system be classified into two categories. One is tightly bound to Nd³⁺ to satisfy its coordination requirement, which was determined to be 11. The other is loosely bound, which is capable of being removed by heating and returning upon exposure to the atmosphere. It is the latter that can be readily quantified by the TGA technique and that lowers T_g via plasticization. In addition to the observed minor FTIR spectral shifts, a relatively weak Nd³⁺-EO interaction in the Nd(Dpm)₃-PEO system resulted in a lack of the T_g elevation for PEO, persistence of the crystalline portion of PEO at all doping levels, and the formation of new crystalline phases as revealed by the WAXD patterns and the DSC thermograms. The short-range order in PEO does not appear to be perturbed, but the SAXS data suggest that the long range-order is disrupted by the presence of Nd(Dpm)³ at an extremely low doping level (i.e., n ≥ 60). © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Rare earth metal benzyl complexes bearing bridged-indenyl ligand for highly active polymerization of methyl methacrylate

The novel anionic bridged-indenyl rare earth metal benzyl complexes [{C₉H₆SiMe₂(CH₂)₂SiMe₂C₉H₆}Ln(CH₂C₆H₄-p-^tBu)₂][Li(THF)₄] (Ln = Y (1), Lu (2)) were synthesized by an acid-base reaction of C₉H₇SiMe₂(CH₂)₂SiMe₂C₉H₇ with one equiv. of rare earth metal trisbenzyl complexes, which were formed in situ from the reaction of anhydrous LnCl₃ with LiCH₂C₆H₄-p-^tBu in 1:3 molar ratio in THF. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, and X-ray structural analysis in the case of 2. Both complexes are active for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) to afford high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution PMMA. The molecular weights of PMMA could be controlled using 1 as a polymerization initiator in chlorobenzene at −40 °C.     

Thermal, structural and acidic characterization of some vanadyl phosphate materials modified with trivalent metal cations

A set of new materials with general formula [M(H₂O)]_X(VO)_1–XPO₄·2H₂O (M ³⁺=Al, Cr, Ga, Mn), isomorphous with layered tetragonal VOPO₄·2H₂O and having potential catalytic properties, have been characterized by TG and DTA, X-ray diffraction and surface acid strength. During heating the compounds transform in the monohydrated and anhydrous phases, all maintaining a layered structure, with a proper interlayer spacing. Catalytic tests performed with 1-butene show that theM ³⁺-vanadyl phosphates greatly improve the conversion of the olefine with respect to pure vanadyl phosphate.This work was carried out in the framework of the Agreement for scientific cooperation between the National Research Council of Italy and the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.

Thermal analysis study of some transition metal complexes by TG and DSC methods

The thermodynamic and thermal properties of [Cu(L)₂·Cl₂], [Ni(L)₂]·Cl₂, [Co(L)₂·Cl₂]; L=1,2-bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane (BAFE), complexes have been investigated. The thermal decomposition of the complexes took place in two distinct steps in endothermic reaction up to 700°C. The activation energy E, the entropy change S ^#, enthalpy H change and Gibbs free energy change G ^# were calculated from the results of thermogravimetry analysis (TG) and heat capacity from the results of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that the thermal stabilities and activation energies of the complexes follow the order Ni(II)>Cu(II)>Co(II) and E _Co<E _Ni<E _Cu, respectively.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Molecular structure,molecular docking,thermal, spectroscopic and biological activity studies of bis‐Schiff base ligand and its metal complexes

Coordination compounds of Fe(III), Zn(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Mn(II) ions were synthesized from the ligand [4,4′‐((((ethane‐1,2‐diylbis(oxy))bis(2,1‐phenylene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(azanylylidene))diphenol]ethane (H₂L) derived from the condensation of bisaldehyde and 4‐aminophenol. Microanalysis, magnetic susceptibility, infrared, ¹H NMR and mass spectroscopies, molar conductance, X ray powder diffraction and thermal analysis were used to confirm the structure of the synthesized chelates. According to the data obtained, the composition of the 1:1 metal ion–bis‐Schiff base ligand was found to be [M(H₂L)(H₂O)₂]Cl_n (M = Zn(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Mn(II), n = 2; Fe(III), n = 3). Magnetic susceptibility measurements and reflectance spectra suggested an octahedral geometry for the complexes. Central metals ions and bis‐Schiff base coordinated together via O2 and N2 donor sites which as evident from infrared spectra. The Gaussian09 program was applied to optimize the structural formula for the investigated Schiff base ligand. The energy gaps and other important theoretical parameters were calculated applying the DFT/B3LYP method. Molecular docking using AutoDock tools was utilized to explain the experimental behaviour of the Schiff base ligand towards proteins of Bacillus subtilis (5 h67), Escherichia coli (3 t88), Proteus vulgaris (5i39) and Staphylococcus aureus (3ty7) microorganisms through theoretical calculations. The docked protein receptors were investigated and the energies of hydrogen bonding were calculated. These complexes were then subjected to in vitro antibacterial studies against several organisms, both Gram negative (P. vulgaris and E. coli) and Gram positive (S. pyogones and B. subtilis). The ligand and metal complexes exhibited good microbial activity against the Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria.     

Tetrahydroquinoline and tetrahydroisoquinoline mixed ligand rhenium complexes with the SNS/S donor atom set

New oxorhenium complexes with 3‐methylazapentane‐1,5‐dithiolate (SNMeS) and thiol functionalized monodentate tetrahydroquinolyl and tetrahydroisoquinolyl derivatives have been synthesized by simultaneous reaction of [PPh₃]₂[Re(O)Cl₃] with tridentate HSNMeSH and the corresponding N‐heterocycle containing thiol. The characterization of complexes involved elemental analysis, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallographic analysis. The nature of the heterocycle in monodentate ligand, even situated at the distance of two methylene group length, has been found to have a significant influence on the molecular conformation. Metal complexes were found to be active in psychotropic in vivo and cytotoxicity in vitro screening. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Novel Schiff base ligand and its metal complexes with some transition elements. Synthesis,spectroscopic, thermal analysis,antimicrobial and in vitro anticancer activity

A novel Schiff base ligand (H₂L) was prepared through condensation of 2,6‐diaminopyridine and o‐benzoylbenzoic acid in a 1:2 ratio. This Schiff base ligand was characterized using elemental and spectroscopic analyses. A new series of Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) metal complexes of H₂L were prepared and characterized using elemental analysis, spectroscopy (¹H NMR, mass, UV–visible, Fourier transform infrared, electron spin resonance), magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity, X‐ray powder diffraction and thermal analysis. The complexes are found to have trigonal bipyramidal geometry except Cr(III), Mn(II) and Fe(III) complexes which have octahedral geometry based on magnetic moment and solid reflectance measurements. The infrared spectral studies reveal that H₂L behaves as a neutral bidentate ligand and coordinates to the metal ions via the two azomethine nitrogens. ¹H NMR spectra confirm the non‐involvement of the carboxylic COOH proton in complex formation. The presence of water molecules in all reported complexes is supported by thermogravimetric studies. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were determined using Coats–Redfern and Horowitz–Metzger equations. The synthesized ligand and its complexes were screened for antimicrobial activities against two Gram‐positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus), two Gram‐negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Neisseria gonorrhoeae) and one fungus (Candida albicans). Anticancer activities of the ligand and its metal complexes against human breast cancer cell line (MCF7) were investigated. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Construction of metal-organic frameworks through coordination and hydrogen bonding interactions: Syntheses, structures and photoluminescent properties of metal complexes with macrocyclic ligand

A macrocyclic ligand L with two diethylenetriamine units linked by two rigid biphenylene spacers was used as building block for construction of metal-organic frameworks. A silver(I) complex with macrocyclic and open-chain mix-type ligands [Ag₂(L)(L′)](ClO₄)₂ (1) [L′=1,6-bis(4-imidazol-1′-ylmethylphenyl)-2,5-diazahexane] was obtained by reaction of L and L′ together with AgClO₄·H₂O. It is interesting that the open-chain tetradentate ligand L′ only served as a bidentate ligand to bridge the Ag₂L units into an infinite one-dimensional (1D) cationic chain. Neutral 1D chain coordination polymer [Cu₂(L)(μ-SO₄)₂]·3H₂O·3MeOH (2) is formed by sulfate bridges between the neighboring Cu₂L units. When L reacted with nickel(II) sulfate instead of copper(II) sulfate, a monomacrocycle molecular complex [Ni₂(L)(H₂O)₄(SO₄)₂] (3) was obtained in which the sulfate anion acts as monodentate ligands rather than as bridges. When Cd(II) salts were used for the reactions with L, another two neutral 1D coordination polymers, [Cd₂(L)(μ-Cl)₂Cl₂]·2H₂O (4) and [Cd₂(L)(μ-Br)₂Br₂] (5), with the same structure were isolated. All the synthesized complexes exhibit three-dimensional framework structures linked by various hydrogen bonds. The photoluminescent properties of the synthesized complexes were studied in the solid state at room temperature, and the Ag(I) and Cd(II) complexes were found to show strong blue luminescence.     

Thermal behaviour of some Al(III)-Mg(II) polynuclear coordination compounds with polycarboxylic acid anions as ligands,precursors of aluminates

A TG, DTG and DTA study of three polynuclear coordination compounds,containing Al(III)-Mg(II), namely (NH₄)₄[Al₂Mg(C₄O₅H₄)₄(OH)₄]?2H₂O,(NH₄)₄[MgAl₂(C₄H₄O₆)₄(OH)₄]?3H₂Oand (NH₄)₂[Al₂Mg(C₆O₇H₁₁)₅(OH)₅]?3H₂O,has been reported together with the associated thermal decomposition mechanismrationalized in terms of intermediate products. As decomposition end-product,magnesium-aluminum spinel is obtained.

Study of the thermal decomposition of cellulose-hyphan and its complexes with some transition and indium metal ions

The studied complexes formed by the chelating ion exchanger were characterized by reflectance and infrared spectrometry. The thermal degradation of pure cellulose-hyphan (CH) and its complexes with Hg²⁺, In³⁺, Cr³⁺, Mo⁴⁺ and Mn²⁺ under an atmosphere of air has been studied using thermal gravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTG). The results showed that four different stages are accompanying the decomposition of (CH) and its complexes with the studied metals. These stages were found to be affected by the presence of the investigated metal ions. On the bases of the applicability of a non-isothermal kinetic equation it was found to be a first-order reaction with the rate of degradation,k, ranging from 8.3·10^?5 to 6.2·10^?3 for (CH) and from 1.7·10^?5 to 6.6·10^?3 s^?1 for its complexes. The activation energy,E _a, the entropy change, ΔS°, the enthalpy change, ΔH° and Gibbs free energy, ΔG° are calculated by applying the rate theory of the first-order reaction. The effect of the different central metal ions on the calculated thermodynamic parameters is discussed.

Abstract

Five new coordination complexes [Mn^II (L₁)₂(4,4′-bpy)]_n (1), [Ni^II (L₁)₂(4,4′-bpy)]_n (2), [Zn^II (L₁)₂(4,4′-bpy)]_n (3), [Cu^II (L₁)₂(phen)₂]Cl₂ (4) and [Cu^II ₂(L₁)₂(2,2′-bpy)₂]Cl₂ (5) (HL₁?=?3,4,5-trifluorobenzeneseleninic acid, 4,4′-bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine, 2,2′-bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. Complexes 1–3 display similar layers structures. In 1–3, the adjacent layers are further connected through π···π interactions to form three-dimensional supramolecular structures. Complexes 4 and 5 show a dimer containing an eight-membered ring. The dimer extends into three-dimensional supramolecular structures through π···π interactions, C–H···F and C–H···Cl interactions.
