Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Complex {[Co~(Ⅲ)L_2]·[Co~(Ⅱ)(H_2O)_6]_(0.5)·2.25H_2O}_4 (H_2L = N-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)salicylidenimine)

The reaction of Co(OAc)2·4H2O with the Schiff base H2L in a methanol solution affords the red crystals of {[CoIIIL2]·[CoII(H2O)6]0.5·2.25H2O}4 1 (H2L = N-(2-hydroxyphenyl) sali-cylidenimine). The molecular and crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal is of monoclinic, space group P21/n, C104H114Co6N8O37, Mr = 2421.61, a = 10.625(3), b = 16.335(4), c = 15.265(4) , β = 102.990(4)o, V = 2581.6(11) 3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.558 g/cm3, μ = 1.034 mm-1, F(000) = 1252, R = 0.0414 and wR = 0.1167 for 5889 reflections. The Co(III) atom is six-coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and four oxygen atoms of two tridentate L ligands. The abundant hydrogen bonding interactions extend the complex into a one-dimensional supra-molecular framework. The uncoordinated water molecules act as space-fillers and consolidate the whole architecture through the hydrogen bonding interactions.     

Multidentate aryloxide and oxo-aryloxide complexes of antimony: synthesis and structural characterization of [eta4-N(o-C6H4O)3]Sb(OSMe2), {{[eta3-N(o-C6H4OH)- (o-C6H4O)2]Sb}2(mu2-O)}2 and {[eta3-PhN(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}4(mu3-O)2

Antimony compounds that feature multidentate aryloxide ligands, namely [eta4-N(o-C6H4O)3]Sb(OSMe2), {{[eta3-N(o-C6H4OH)(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}2(mu2-O)}2, and {[eta3-PhN(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}4(mu3-O)2 have been synthesized from N(o-C6H4OH)3 and PhN(o-C6H4OH)2 and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. While [eta4-N(o-C6H4O)3]Sb(OSMe2) exists as a discrete mononuclear species, the oxo complexes {{[eta3-N(o-C6H4OH)(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}2(mu2-O)}2 and {[eta3-PhN(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}4(micro3-O)2 are multinuclear. Specifically, the dinuclear fragment {[eta3-N(o-C6H4OH)(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}2(mu2-O)} exists in a dimeric form due to the bridging oxo ligand participating in an intermolecular hydrogen bonding interaction, while the dinuclear fragment {[eta3-PhN(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}2(mu-O) exists in a dimeric form due to the bridging oxo ligand serving as a donor to the antimony of a second fragment. The structures of {{[eta3-N(o-C6H4OH)(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}2(mu2-O)}2 and {[eta3-PhN(o-C6H4O)2]Sb}4(mu3-O)(2), therefore, indicate that an oxo ligand bridging two Sb(III) centers is sufficiently electron rich to serve as both an effective hydrogen bond acceptor and as a ligand for an additional Sb(III) center.     

Cluster oxalate complexes [M3(mu3-Q)(mu2-Q2)3(C2O4)3]2- and [Mo3(mu3-Q)(mu2-Q)3(C2O4)3(H2O)3]2- (M = Mo, W; Q = S, Se): mechanochemical synthesis and crystal structure

Mechanochemical reaction of cluster coordination polymers 1infinity[M3Q7Br4] (M = Mo, W; Q = S, Se) with solid K2C2O4 leads to cluster core excision with the formation of anionic complexes [M3Q7(C2O4)3]2-. Extraction of the reaction mixture with water followed by crystallization gives crystalline K2[M3Q7(C2O4)3].0.5KBr.nH2O (M = Mo, Q = S, n = 3 (1); M = Mo, Q = Se, n = 4 (2); M = W, Q = S, n = 5 (3)). Cs2[Mo3S7(C2O4)3].0.5CsCl.3.5H2O (4) and (Et4N)1.5H0.5K{[Mo3S7(C2O4)3]Br}.2H2O (5) were also prepared. Close Q...Br contacts result in the formation of ionic triples {[M3Q7(C2O4)3](2)Br}5- in 1-4 and the 1:1 adduct {[Mo3S7(C2O4)3]Br}3- in 5. Treatment of 1 or 2 with PPh(3) leads to chalcogen abstraction with the formation of [Mo3(mu3-Q)(mu2-Q)3(C2O4)3(H2O)3]2-, isolated as (Ph4P)2[Mo3(mu3-S)(mu2-S)3(C2O4)3(H2O)3].11H2O (6) and (Ph4P2[Mo3(mu3-Se)(mu2-Se)3(C2O4)3(H2O)3].8.5H2O.0.5C2H5OH (7). All compounds were characterized by X-ray structure analysis. IR, Raman, electronic, and 77Se NMR spectra are also reported. Thermal decomposition of 1-3 was studied by thermogravimetry.     

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Four New Complexes [Mn(4,4''-bip)2(OH2)4](DBA)·4H2O and [M(OH2)(HDPA)2]·3H2O (M = Mn, Co, Ni)

Four new transition metal complexes, [Mn(4,4'-bip)2(OH2)4](DBA)·4H2O 1(4,4'-bip = 4,4'-bipyridine, H2DBA = benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid) and [M(OH2)(HDPA)2]·3H2O (M = Mn 2, M = Co 3, M = Ni 4,H2DPA = 2,6-pyridine-dicarboxylic acid), have been prepared from the reaction of transition metals and carboxylic acids, and characterized by X-ray and elemental analyses. For compound 1, the packing diagram shows that a three-dimensional network is formed via hydrogen bonds and strong π-π interactions. For compounds 2, 3 and 4,a double-helical chain is formed through hydrogen bonds. Moreover, a three-dimensional network is constructed from chains via complicated hydrogen bonds between crystal water molecules and oxygen atoms of HDPA-.     

Raman and FTIR spectra of [Cu(H2O)6](BrO3)2 and [Al(H2O)6](BrO3)3 x 3H2O

Raman and FTIR spectra of [Cu(H2O)6](BrO3)2 and [Al(H2O)6](BrO3)3 x 3H2O are recorded and analyzed. The observed bands are assigned on the basis of BrO3- and H2O vibrations. Additional bands obtained in the region of v3 and v1 modes in [Cu(H2O)6](BrO3)2 are due to the lifting of degeneracy of v3 modes, since the BrO3- ion occupies a site of lower symmetry. The appearance v1 mode of BrO3- anion at a lower wavenumber (771 cm(-1)) is attributed to the attachment of hydrogen to the BrO3- anion. The presence of three inequivalent bromate groups in the [Al(H2O)6](BrO3)3 x 3H2O structure is confirmed. The lifting of degeneracy of v4 mode indicates that the symmetry of BrO3- anion is lowered in the above crystal from C3v to C1. The appearance of additional bands in the stretching and bonding mode regions of water indicates the presence of hydrogen bonds of different strengths in both the crystals. Temperature dependent Raman spectra of single crystal [Cu(H2O)6](BrO3)2 are recorded in the range 77-523 K for various temperatures. A small structural rearrangement takes place in BrO3- ion in the crystal at 391 K. Hydrogen bounds in the crystal are rearranging themselves leading to the loss of one water molecule at 485 K. This is preceded by the reorientation of BrO3- ions causing a phase transition at 447 K. Changes in intensities and wavenumbers of the bands and the narrowing down of the bands at 77 K are attributed to the settling down of protons into ordered positions in the crystal.

Two Glutarato Bridged Coordination Polymers: ${_{\infty}^1}${[Mn(phen)]2L4/2} and ${_{\infty}^1}${[Zn(phen)(H2O)]L2/2}·H2O with H2L = Glutaric Acid

Two new glutarato bridged coordination polymers {[Mn(phen)]₂(C₅H₆O₄)_4/2} ( 1 ) and {[Zn(phen)(H₂O)](C₅H₆O₄)_2/2}· H₂O ( 2 ) were structurally characterized on the basis of single crystal X‐ray diffraction data. Crystal data: ( 1 ) P2/c (no. 13), a = 10.340(2)Å, b = 10.525(2)Å, c = 13.891(2)Å, β = 98.31(1)°, U = 1495.9(5)ų, Z = 2; ( 2 ) P2₁/n (no. 14), a = 6.738(1)Å, b = 25.636(3)Å, c = 10.374(1)Å, β = 106.13(1)°, U = 1721.4(4)ų, Z = 4. Complex 1 consists of 1D ribbon‐like {[Mn(phen)]₂(C₅H₆O₄)_4/2} chains, in which the [Mn(phen)] units were interlinked by glutarato ligands to generate 8‐ and 16‐membered rings. The Mn atoms are octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligand and four O atoms of three glutarato ligands with d(Mn‐N) = 2.270, 2.276Å, d(Mn‐O) = 2.114—2.283Å. Through the interchain π‐π stacking interactions, the 1D chains are assembled into 2D puckered layers, which are further held together by interlayer π‐π stacking interactions into a 3D network. Complex 2 is built up by 1D {[Zn(phen)(H₂O)](C₅H₆O₄)_2/2} linear chains and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The Zn atoms are coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligand and three O atoms of one H₂O molecule and two glutarato ligands to form slightly elongated trigonal bipyramids with the water O atom and one phen N atom at the apical positions (d(Zn‐N) = 2.101, 2.168Å, d(Zn‐O) = 1.991—2.170Å). The 1D linear chains result from [Zn(phen)(H₂O)] units bridged by bis‐monodentate glutarato ligands. The resulting 1D chains are assembled by π‐π stacking interactions into 2D layers, between which the hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules are situated.     

Syntheses, structures, ionic conductivities, and magnetic properties of three new transition-metal borophosphates Na5(H3O){M(II)3[B3O3(OH)]3(PO4)6}.2H2O (M(II) = Mn, Co, Ni)

Three new open-framework transition-metal borophosphates Na5(H3O){M(II)3[B3O3(OH)]3(PO4)6}.2H2O (M(II) = Mn, Co, Ni) (denoted as MBPO-CJ25) have been synthesized under mild hydrothermal conditions. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that the three compounds possess isostructural three-dimensional (3D) open frameworks with one-dimensional 12-ring channels along the [001] direction. Notably, the structure can also be viewed as composed of metal phosphate layers [M(II)(PO4)2]4- with Kagomé topology, which are further connected by [B3O7(OH)] triborates, giving rise to a 3D open framework. The guest water molecules locate in the 12-ring channels. Partial Na+ ions reside in the 10-ring side pockets within the wall of the 12-ring channels, and the other Na+ ions and protonated water molecules locate in the 6-ring windows delimited by MO6 and PO4 polyhedra to compensate for the negative charges of the anionic framework. These compounds show a high thermal stability and are stable upon calcinations at ca. 500 degrees C. Ionic conductivities, due to the motion of Na+ ions, are measured for these three compounds. They have similar activation energies of 1.13-1.25 eV and conductivities of 2.7 x 10(-7)-9.9 x 10(-7) S cm(-1) at 300 degrees C. Magnetic measurements reveal that there are very weak antiferromagnetic interactions among the metal centers of the three compounds. Crystal data: MnBPO-CJ25, hexagonal, P6(3)/m (No. 176), a = 11.9683(5) A, c = 12.1303(6) A, and Z = 2; CoBPO-CJ25, hexagonal, P6(3)/m (No. 176), a = 11.7691(15) A, c = 12.112(2) A, and Z = 2; NiBPO-CJ25, hexagonal, P6(3)/m (No. 176), a = 11.7171(5) A, c = 12.0759(7) A, and Z = 2.     

Phase separation in liquid crystalline mesophases of [Co(H2O)6]X2:P65 Systems (X = NO3-, Cl-, or ClO4-)

Transition-metal aqua complex salts [M(H2O)6]X2 (where M is Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), or Cd(II) and X is NO3-, Cl-, or ClO4-) can be dissolved in triblock poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) copolymers (Pluronics, such as P65) to form homogeneous liquid crystalline (LC) mesophases. However, the [Co(H2O)6]X2:P65 LC mesophases slowly undergo phase separation into a disordered ion-free phase and an ordered ion-rich LC mesophase. The phase separation also takes place in the two-salt systems [Co(H2O)6](NO3):[Co(H2O)6](ClO4)2:P65 in which the ion-free disordered domains separate out from the initially ordered homogeneous mesophase. The phase separation results in a physical mixture of a hexagonal nitrate-rich and cubic perchlorate-rich LC and disordered ion-free domains in the mixed salt systems. The driving force in the phase separation in the [Co(H2O)6]X2:P65 system is Co(II)-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of P65 into ester and/or other oxidation products. The separation of ions in the [Co(H2O)6](NO3)2:[Co(H2O)6](ClO4)2:P65 system is related to the mesostructures of the two-salt systems that are different, hexagonal in the [Co(H2O)6](NO3)2:P65 system and cubic in the [Co(H2O)6](ClO4)2:P65 system. There is no visible phase separation in the other transition-metal salt:P65 systems. The phase separation in the [Co(H2O)6]X2:P65 systems can also be eliminated by keeping the mesophase under a N2 atmosphere.     

Probing anion-pi interactions in 1-D Co(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II) coordination polymers containing flexible pyrazine ligands

Two flexible thioether-containing heterocyclic ligands bis(2-pyrazylmethyl)sulfide (L1) and 2-benzylsulfanylmethylpyrazine (L2) have arene rings with differing pi-acidities which were used to probe anion-pi binding in five 1-D coordination polymers formed from the metal salts Co(ClO4)2, Ni(NO3)2, and Cd(NO3)2. In {[Co(L1)(MeCN)2](ClO4)2}infinity (1), {[Ni(L1)(NO3)2]}infinity (2), and {[Cd2(L1)(MeCN)(H2O)(NO3)4].H2O}infinity (3.H2O), the symmetrical ligand L1 was bound facially to the metal center and was bridged through a pyrazine donor to an adjacent metal forming a polymer chain. The folding of L1 formed U-shaped pi-pockets in 1 and 3.H2O which encapsulated free and bound anions, respectively. The anions interacted with the pi-acidic centers in a variety of different binding modes including anion-pi-anion and pi-anion-pi sandwiching. A wider pi-pocket was formed in 2 which also contained anion-pi interactions. The polymer chains in 2 were interdigitated through a rare type of complementary T-shaped N(pyrazine)...pi interaction. In {[Co(L2)(H2O)3](ClO4)2.H2O}infinity (4.H2O) and {[Cd(L2)(H2O)(NO3)2]}infinity (5), the unsymmetrical ligand L2 chelated the metal center and bridged through a pyrazine donor to an adjacent metal forming a polymer chain. The ligand arrangement resulted in the anions in both structures being involved in only anion-pi-anion sandwich interactions. In 4.H2O, the noncoordinated ClO4- anions interacted with only one chain while in 5 the coordinated NO3- anions acted as anion-pi supramolecular synthons between chains. Comparison between the polymers formed with ligands L1 and L2 showed that only the more pi-acidic ring was involved in the anion-pi interactions.

Assembly of a cubic nanocage Co8L12 and a hydrogen-bonded 3D NbO net based on the [(HCO3)2]2- synthon and water

Two new complexes [Co(H2O)6 Co8(L1)12]X6 x n H2O (X = NO3(-), n = 12 (1); X = HCO3-, n = 24, (2); HL1 = 4,6-bis(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazin-2-ol) have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. A [Co(H2O)6](2+) ion is encapsuled in the central cavity of the cubelike nanocage [Co(H2O)6 Co8(L1)12](6+) cation, assembled by eight cobalt ions at the corners and twelve bis-bidentate ligands L1 as the edges, via the formation of 12-fold strong hydrogen bonds between the six coordinated water molecules and the oxygen atoms of twelve L1 as a guest. Complex 1 crystallizes in a centrosymmetric space group P1, while 2 is in a very high symmetric space group Im3. In 2, a planar [(HCO3)2](2-) dimer motif R2(2)(8) synthon plus six lattice water molecules constitute a planar supramolecular synthon R8(8)(20), which acts as a four connector, generating a 3D hydrogen-bonded NbO net with cubelike host cavities of approximately 20 A diameter. Interestingly, the cubelike nanocage [Co(H2O)6 Co8(L1)12](6+) cations fill in the cavities as templates. The magnetic properties of 1 have also been studied in the temperature range of 2-300 K, and its magnetic susceptibility obeys the Curie-Weiss law, showing antiferromagnetic coupling.

X-ray crystallographic study shows that the title compound consists of one [Co(4,4'-bipy)2(H2O)4]2 cation, two diprotonated 4,4'-bipyridine molecules, 5.5 water molecules of crystallization, and one metatungstate polyoxoanion [H2W12O40]6-, which approaches an effective Td point symmetry. TG-DTA analysis indicates that the framework of the metatungstate polyoxoanion is collapsed at 587.0 ℃.     

1-D and 2-D homoleptic dicyanamide structures, [Ph4P]2[CoII[N(CN)2]4] and [Ph4P][M[N(CN)2]3] (M = Mn, Co)

The homoleptic complexes [Ph(4)P](2)[Co[N(CN)(2)](4)] and [Ph(4)P][M[N(CN)(2)](3)] [M = Co, Mn] have been structurally as well as magnetically characterized. The complexes containing [M[N(CN)(2)](4)](2-) form 1-D chains, which are bridged via a common dicyanamide ligand in [M[N(CN)(2)](3)](-) to form a 2-D structure. The five-atom [NCNCN](-) bridging ligands lead to weak magnetic coupling along a chain. The six [NCNCN](-) ligands lead to a (4)T(1g) ground state for Co(II) which has an unquenched spin-orbit coupling that is reflected in the magnetic properties. Long-range magnetic ordering was not observed in any of these materials.
