Solvothermal synthesis and characterization of a series of lanthanide thiostannates(IV): the first examples of inorganic-organic hybrid cationic lanthanide thiostannates(IV)

A series of new lanthanide thiostannates(IV), [Y(2)(dien)(4)(μ-OH)(2)]Sn(2)S(6) (1, dien = diethyl-enetriamine), (tetaH)(2)[Ln(2)(teta)(2)(tren)(2)(μ-Sn(2)S(6))]Sn(2)S(6) [Ln = Eu (2), Sm (3); teta = triethylenetetramine; tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine] and [Eu(2)(tepa)(2)(μ-OH)(2)(μ-Sn(2)S(6))](tepa)(0.5)·H(2)O (4, tepa = tetraethylene-pentamine) were solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. 1 consists of a binuclear [Y(2)(dien)(4)(μ(2)-OH)(2)](4+) cation and a discrete dimeric [Sn(2)S(6)](4-) anion. Both 2 and 3 are isostructural and composed of [Ln(2)(teta)(2)(tren)(2)(μ-Sn(2)S(6))](2+) cations, protonated triethylenetetramines (tetaH), and discrete dimeric [Sn(2)S(6)](4-) anions. A Sn(2)S(6)(4-) anion bridges two [Ln(teta)(tren)](3+) cations via the trans-S(t) (t = terminal) atoms to form the first examples of inorganic-organic hybrid thiostannate cations [Ln(2)(teta)(2)(tren)(2)(μ-Sn(2)S(6))](2+). 4 consists of one-dimensional (1-D) neutral chains [Eu(2)(tepa)(2)(μ-OH)(2)(μ-Sn(2)S(6))](n) built up from the linkage of dinuclear complex cations [Eu(2)(tepa)(2)(μ(2)-OH)(2)](4+) and bridging anions [Sn(2)S(6)](4-), free tepa molecules, and lattice water molecules. The present compounds exhibit wide-band gap semiconducting properties with absorption band edges between 2.40 and 2.91 eV.     

Indium sulfide clusters integrated with 2,2'-bipyridine complexes

Supertetrahedral compounds of chalcogenometalates (T3 cluster compounds) integrated with Ni-bpy (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) complex were prepared by a solvothermal technique. The compound [Ni(bpy)(3)](3)[H(4)In(10)S(20)]·bpy·2EG·6H(2)O (Mb-InS-1) (EG = ethylene glycol) consists of discrete T3 clusters of [H(4)In(10)S(20)](6-) with three [Ni(bpy)(3)](2+) cations. The compound [Ni(bpy)(3)](2)[H(2)In(10)S(19)]·bpy·2HEA·2H(2)O (Mb-InS-2) (EA = ethanolamine) is a 1-D polymer, in which zigzag T3 cluster chains are charge balanced by metal-bpy complex cations. The compound [Ni(bpy)(3)](7)[H(4)In(40)S(74)]·7Hbpy·3HEA·8H(2)O (Mb-InS-3) is a 2-D T3 polymer with cation layers of [Ni(bpy)(3)](2+). Integrating M-bpy complex cations into chalcogenido structures has been made with the aim of improving the photoabsorption of the materials. The electronic spectra showed the new bands of cation-anion charge-transfer (CACT) that is mainly caused by the S···H-C(py) contacts between the InS T3 supertetrahedral clusters and the [Ni(bpy)(3)](2+) cations.

Synthesis of a selenidostannate(IV), [Mn(tepa).Sn3Se7]n, demonstrating the transformation from achiral to chiral and dimeric to polymeric structure

Although a number of chalcogenostannates have been obtained by using [M(amine)m]n+ as the structure director, these materials with chiral metal complex ions are usually achiral because they are a racemic mix of chiral complex cations. A chiral selenidostannate, [Mn(tepa).Sn3Se7]n (1; tepa = tetraethylenepentamine), containing incorporated [Mn(tepa)]2+ units, is reported herein. The unique structure is just like a grapevine appended with chiral grapes. In the same reaction, a centrosymmetric compound, [Mn(tepa)]2(mu2-Sn2Se6) (2), in which the Sn2Se64- anion acts as a bridge coordinating to [Mn(tepa)]2+ cations, has also been obtained. This is a reaction-time-related process in which compound 2 transformed gradually to 1 after prolonging the reaction time. This phenomenon demonstrates a transformation from achiral to chiral and dimeric to polymeric selenidostannate.     

An Organic-inorganic Hybrid Sandwich-type Arsenotungstate [H_2dap]_2H_2[Ni(dap)_2][Ni(dap)_2(H_2O)_2]- [Ni_4(H_2O)_2(B-α-As~VW_9O_(34))_2]·8H_2O

A new organic-inorganic hybrid sandwich-type arsenotungstate[H2dap]2H2[Ni(dap)2] [Ni(dap)2(H2O)2][Ni4(H2O)2(B-α-AsVW9O34)2]·8H2O 1 (dap = 1,2-diaminopropane) has been synthesized by the reaction of Na6[AsIII2W21O69(H2O)]·nH2O, NiCl2·6H2O and dap under hydro- thermal conditions and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermo- gravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 13.5133(19), b = 19.043(3), c = 17.647(2) , β = 102.585(2)°, V = 4432.0(11) 3, T = 296(2) K, Z = 2, μ = 25.350 mm–1, GOOF = 1.058, R = 0.0353 and wR = 0.0838. The molecular unit of 1 consists of two diprotonated [H2dap]2+ cations, two protons, one four-coordinate [Ni(dap)2]2+ cation, one six-coordinate [Ni(dap)2(H2O)2]2+ cation, one classic tetra-NiII substituted sandwich-type [Ni4(H2O)2(B-α-AsVW9O34)2]10– polyoxoanion and eight lattice water molecules. Furthermore, some reported different types of transition-metal substituted sandwich-type poly- oxoanions are summarized and compared.     

Au(CN)4]- as a supramolecular building block for heterobimetallic coordination polymers

A series of the first coordination polymers using the [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion as a building block has been prepared. The planar tetracyanoaurate anion uses one, two, or four cyano groups to bridge to Ni(II) or Cu(II) centers and exhibits weak Au(III)-N(cyano) interactions between anions. Ni(en)(2)[Au(CN)(4)](2).H(2)O (1, en = ethylenediamine) is a molecular compound with the two [Au(CN)(4)](-) anions coordinating in a trans orientation to Ni(II) without further cyanide coordination. Cu(dien)[Au(CN)(4)](2) (2, dien = diethylenetriamine) forms a similar molecular complex; however, the dimensionality is increased through weak intermolecular Au-N(cyano) interactions of 3.002(14) A to form a 1-D zigzag chain. Cu(en)(2)[Au(CN)(4)](2) (3) also forms a molecular complex similar to 1, but with elongated axial bonds. The complex further aggregates through Au-N(cyano) interactions of 3.035(8) A to form a 2-D array. In [Cu(dmeda)(2)Au(CN)(4)][Au(CN)(4)] (4, dmeda = N,N-dimethylethylenediamine) one [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion coordinates via two cis-N(cyano) donors to the axial sites of two Cu(II) centers to form a 1-D zigzag chain of alternating [Cu(dmeda)(2)](2+) and [Au(CN)(2)](-) units; the other [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion forms a 1-D chain via Au-N(cyano) interactions. In [Cu(bipy)(H(2)O)(2)(Au(CN)(4))(0.5)][Au(CN)(4)](1.5) (5, bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine) one [Au(CN)(4)](-) anion uses all four cyano moieties to bridge four different Cu(II) centers, creating a 1-D chain.     

Solvothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the New Layered Thioantimonate(III) [Ni(C4H13N3)2]9Sb22S42 · 0.5H2O: Interconnection of the SbS3, SbS4, and SbS5 Primary Building Units Yielding the Very Large Sb30S30 Heteroring

The novel thioantimonate(III) [Ni(dien)₂]₉Sb₂₂S₄₂ · 0.5H₂O was synthesised under solvothermal conditions by reacting elemental Ni, Sb and S in an aqueous solution of diethylenetriamine (dien) (80%). The compound crystallises in the triclinic space group P1¯, a = 8.997(2) Å, b = 15.293(3) Å, c = 34.434(7) Å, α = 85.51(3)°, β = 84.16(3)°, γ = 83.54(3)°, V = 4672.7 (16) ų, Z = 1. The layered [Sb₂₂S₄₂^18—] anion in [Ni(dien)₂]₉Sb₂₂S₄₂ · 0.5H₂O is composed of nine SbS₃ trigonal pyramids, one SbS₄ and one SbS₅ unit. The interconnection of these units by sharing common S atoms yields Sb‐S heterorings of different sizes. Besides the smaller Sb₂S₂ and Sb₃S₃ rings a very large Sb₃₀S₃₀ heteroring is observed. The structure directing effect of the [Ni(dien)₂]²⁺ cations is obvious as they are located above and below the pores of the anion. The nine [Ni(dien)₂]²⁺ cations exhibit different conformations. All Ni²⁺ cations are in an octahedral environment of six N atoms of two dien ligands. The anions and cations are stacked perpendicular to [100] in an alternating fashion.     

Ge(7)O(13)(OH)(2)F(3)](3)(-).Cl(-).2[Ni(dien)(2)](2+): the first chainlike germanate templated by a transition metal complex

The first chainlike germanate, [Ge(7)O(13)(OH)(2)F(3)](3)(-).Cl(-).2[Ni(dien)(2)](2+), has been solvothermally synthesized by using Ni(dien)(2)(2+) cations as the template and characterized by IR, SEM, TGA, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA), elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction, respectively. This compound crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2/nwith a = 8.8904(2) A, b = 17.4374(3) A, c = 13.2110(3) A, beta = 101.352(1) degrees, V = 2007.97(7) A(3), and Z = 2. Interestingly, the structure contains two types of chiral mer-[Ni(dien)(2)](2+) cations and two types of chiral chains, one left-handed and the other right-handed, which lead to a racemic compound. The orderly separation of achiral s-fac-[Ni(dien)(2)](2+) and chiral mer-[Ni(dien)(2)](2+) isomers was found in the structure. The structure is stabilized by N-H.O(F, Cl) hydrogen bonds.     

Indium-sulfur supertetrahedral polymers integrated with [M(phen)3]2+ cations (M = Ni and Fe)

A series of supertetrahedral polymers of chalcogenometalates (T3 cluster compounds) integrated with M-phen complexes (phen =1,10-phenanthroline; M = Ni, Fe) was prepared by a similar solvothermal technique. Compound [Fe(phen)(3)](4)[H(4)In(20)S(38)]·Hphen·3HDMA·8H(2)O (Mp-InS-4) (DMA = dimethylamine) is a 1-D straight chain. Compounds [M(phen)(3)](4)[In(20)S(37)]·6Hphen·4H(2)O (M = Ni, Mp-InS-5; Fe, Mp-InS-6) are the first reported 2-D Tn polymers integrated with complex cations of [M(phen)(3)](2+). Compound [Ni(phen)(3)](4)[H(4)In(20)S(38)]·2Hphen·2HDMA·3H(2)O (Mp-InS-7) shows a zigzag 1-D structure. We find that the reaction time is an important factor in assembling of the T3 clusters. Prolonging the reaction time seems favorable to the higher condensed phases (from 0-D to 2-D). However, a longer reaction time resulted in the crack of 2-D structure. Integrating M-phen complex cations with the chalcogenido anions can improve absorption of the materials in the visible range due to the charge transfers within the cations or between cations and anions.     

Mixed-valent selenidoantimonates(III,V) with transition-metal complexes as counterions: solvothermal syntheses and characterization of [M(dien)2]2Sb4Se9 (M = Mn, Fe), [Co(dien)2]2Sb2Se6, and [Ni(dien)2]2Sb2Se5

Novel selenidoantimonate compounds [M(dien)2]2Sb4Se9 [M = Mn (1), Fe (2)], [Co(dien)2]2Sb2Se6 (3), and [Ni(dien)2]2Sb2Se5 (4) (dien = diethylenetriamine) were solvothermally synthesized and characterized. The unique features of compounds 1-3 are the mixed-valent anionic structures constructed by the Sb(III)Se3 trigonal pyramid and Sb(V)Se4 tetrahedron. Three Sb(III)Se3 pyramids share common corners, forming a heterocyclic Sb3Se6 moiety, and the Sb3Se6 moieties are further connected with Sb(V)Se4 tetrahedra to form the novel one-dimensional [Sb4Se9(4-)]n anionic chain in 1 and 2. The discrete [Sb2Se6]4- anion in 3 is formed by an Sb(III)Se3 trigonal pyramid and an Sb(V)Se4 tetrahedron sharing a common corner. The [Sb2Se5]4- anion in 4 is composed of two Sb(III)Se3 trigonal pyramids connected in the same manner as the [Sb2Se6]4- anion. The mixed-valent [Sb4Se9(4-)]n and [Sb2Se6]4- anions were not observed before. The synthesis and solid-state structural studies of the title compounds show that the transition-metal complexes exhibit different structure-directing effects on the formation of selenidoantimonates in dien. Extensive N-H...Se hydrogen bonds are observed between cations and anions in compounds 1-4, resulting in three-dimensional network structures. Optical and thermal properties of the compounds are reported.     

Heterobimetallic coordination polymers incorporating [M(CN)(2)](-) (M = Cu,Ag) and [Ag(2)(CN)(3)](-) units: increasing structural dimensionality via M-M' and M...NC interactions

A series of new heterometallic coordination polymers has been prepared from the reaction of metal-ligand cations and KAg(CN)(2) units. Many of these contain silver-silver (argentophilic) interactions, analogous to gold-gold interactions, which serve to increase supramolecular structural dimensionality. Compared to [Au(CN)(2)](-) analogues, these polymers display new trends specific to [Ag(CN)(2)](-), including the formation of [Ag(2)(CN)(3)](-) and the presence of Ag...N interactions. [Cu(en)(2)][Ag(2)(CN)(3)][Ag(CN)(2)] (1, en = ethylenediamine) forms 1-D chains of alternating [Ag(CN)(2)](-) and [Ag(2)(CN)(3)](-) units via argentophilic interactions of 3.102(1) A. These chains are connected into a 2-D array by strong cyano(N)-Ag interactions of 2.572(3) A. [Cu(dien)Ag(CN)(2)](2)[Ag(2)(CN)(3)][Ag(CN)(2)] (2, dien = diethylenetriamine) forms a 1-D chain of alternating [Cu(dien)](2+) and [Ag(CN)(2)](-) ions with the Cu(II) atoms connected in an apical/equatorial fashion. These chains are cross-linked by [Ag(2)(CN)(3)](-) units via argentophilic interactions of 3.1718(8) A and held weakly in a 3-D array by argentophilic interactions of 3.2889(5) A between the [Ag(CN)(2)](-) in the 2-D array and the remaining free [Ag(CN)(2)](-). [Ni(en)][Ni(CN)(4)].2.5H(2)O (4) was identified as a byproduct in the reaction to prepare the previously reported [Ni(en)(2)Ag(2)(CN)(3)][Ag(CN)(2)] (3). In [Ni(tren)Ag(CN)(2)][Ag(CN)(2)] (5, tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine), [Ni(tren)](2+) cations are linked in a cis fashion by [Ag(CN)(2)](-) anions to form a 1-D chain similar to the [Au(CN)(2)](-) analogue. [Cu(en)Cu(CN)(2)Ag(CN)(2)] (6) is a trimetallic polymer consisting of interpenetrating (6,3) nets stabilized by d(10)-d(10) interactions between Cu(I)-Ag(I) (3.1000(4) A). Weak antiferromagnetic coupling has been observed in 2, and a slightly stronger exchange has been observed in 6. The Ni(II) complexes, 4 and 5, display weak antiferromagnetic interactions as indicated by their relatively larger D values compared to that of 3. Magnetic measurements on isostructural [Ni(tren)M(CN)(2)][M(CN)(2)] (M = Ag, Au) show that Ag(I) is a more efficient mediator of magnetic exchange as compared to Au(I). The formation of [Ni(CN)(4)](2)(-), [Ag(2)(CN)(3)](-), and [Cu(CN)(2)](-) are all attributed to secondary reactions of the dissociation products of the labile KAg(CN)(2).     

One unprecedented 1-D europium thioindate-thioantimonate based on heterometallic mixed nitro-thioclusters with photoluminescent properties

One novel 1-D europium thioindate-thioantimonate {[Eu(tepa)](2)[μ(2)-SbS(3)](μ(2)-H(2)O)}[Eu(tepa)In(4)S(9)]·0.25tepa (1, tepa = tetraethylenepentamine) has been solvothermally synthesized. 1 represents the first example of the coordination of a soft Lewis basic 1-D polymeric [In(4)S(9)(6-)](n) ligand to a hard Lewis acidic Eu(3+) ion. The wide-band-gap semiconductor and photoluminescence properties of 1 have been investigated.

Synthesizing 2D and 3D Selenidostannates in Ionic Liquids: The Synergistic Structure‐Directing Effects of Ionic Liquids and Metal–Amine Complexes

Presented are the ionothermal syntheses, characterizations, and properties of a series of two‐ and three‐dimensional selenidostannate compounds synergistically directed by metal–amine complex (MAC) cations and ionic liquids (ILs) of [Bmmim]Cl (Bmmim=1‐butyl‐2,3‐dimethylimidazolium). Four selenidostannates, namely, 2D‐(Bmmim)₃[Ni(en)₃]₂[Sn₉Se₂₁]Cl ( 1 , en=ethylenediamine), 2D‐(Bmmim)₈[Ni₂(teta)₂(μ‐teta)]Sn₁₈Se₄₂ ( 2 , teta=triethylenetetramine), 2D‐(Bmmim)₄[Ni(tepa)Cl]₂[Ni(tepa)Sn₁₂Se₂₈] ( 3 , tepa=tetraethylenepentamine), and 3D‐(Bmmim)₂[Ni(1,2‐pda)₃]Sn₈Se₁₈ ( 4 , 1,2‐pda=1,2‐diaminopropane), were obtained. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses revealed that compounds 1 and 2 possess a lamellar anionic [Sn₃Se₇]_n^2n? structure comprising distinct eight‐membered ring units, whereas 3 features a MAC‐decorated anionic [Ni(tepa)Sn₁₂Se₂₈]_n^6n? layered structure. In contrast to 1 – 3 , compound 4 exhibits a 3D open framework of anionic [Sn₄Se₉]_n^2n?. The structural variation from 1 to 4 clearly indicates that on the basis of the synergistic structure‐directing ability of the MACs and ILs, variation of the organic polyamine ligand has a significant impact on the formation of selenidostannates.

Versatility of 2,6-diacetylpyridine (dap) hydrazones in stabilizing uncommon coordination geometries of Mn(II): synthesis, spectroscopic, magnetic and structural characterization

Five seven- or eight-coordinate manganese complexes of hydrazone ligands have been prepared. Three seven-coordinate neutral Mn(II) complexes: [Mn(dapA2)]n (1), [Mn(dapB2)(H2O)2] (2), [Mn(dapS2)(H2O)2] (3) have been synthesized from the bis-Schiff bases of 2,6-diacetylpyridine: dap(AH)2, dap(BH)2 and dap(SH)2 (AH = anthraniloyl hydrazide, BH = benzoyl hydrazide, SH = salicyloyl hydrazide), respectively. Two eight-coordinate Mn(II) complexes: [Mn(dapS)2] (4) and [Mn(dapB)2].3H2O (5) have been synthesized from the mono-Schiff bases dapBH and dapSH, respectively. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses and by IR, UV-Vis., FAB mass, EI mass and EPR spectroscopy. The molecular structures of 1, 3.DMF and 4.DMF have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mono-Schiff bases are monoanionic and the bis-Schiff bases are dianionic. The octa-coordinated mono-Schiff base complex 4 adopts a dodecahedral geometry, while the hepta-coordinated bis-Schiff base complex 1 forms a one-dimensional linear polymeric chain. A weak antiferromagnetic exchange interaction (J=-0.15 cm(-1)) between the Mn(II) ions in is attributed to weak Mn...Mn interaction through the PhNH(2) moiety of the ligand, as indicated by extended-Hückel molecular orbital calculations. A good simulation of the EPR spectrum of a frozen solution (DMSO at 4 K) of compound 1 was obtained with g=2.0, D=0.1 cm(-1), E=0.01 cm(-1). The EPR spectrum of a powdered sample of compound 1 shows a large broadening of the signal, due in part, to the important zero-field splitting of the hepta-coordinated Mn(II) ion.     

In situ Alkylation of 4,4'-Bipyridine in Hydrothermal Synthesis of an Iodoplumbate Inorganic-organic Hybrid with Fluorescence

A novel 1-D iodoplumbate hybrid,2(Pb3I9)3-·3(C14H18N2)2+ 1,has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by IR spectra,TGA and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic,space group P21/c,with a=12.057(2),b=14.024(3),c=24.742(5) ,β=90.48(3)°,V=4183.6(14)3,Z=4,R=0.0477 and wR=0.0800.The title compound consists of 1-D chains(Pb3I9)n3n-parallel to the [100] direction and stacks of alkylated 4,4'-bipyridium cations running along the [011] direction.Each anionic chain is surrounded by six arrays of alkylated 4,4'-bipyridium cations through extensive C-H…I atypical hydrogen-bonding interactions to afford an interesting 3-D supramolecular network.Significant fluorescent property of the compound was observed at room temperature.
