Compound 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group C2/c with a = 21.5018(9), b = 10.9331(5), c = 11.8667(5)A,β = 95.3570(10)o, V = 2777.5(2)A3, Z = 4, Dc = 2.802 g/cm3, Mr = 1171.80,μ(MoKα) = 3.173 mm-1, F(000) = 223, the final R = 0.0458 and wR = 0.1041 for 2093 observed reflections (I>2σ(I)); Compound 2 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 11.4042(12), b = 10.9481(11), c = 11.6722(12)A, β= 99.948(2)o, V = 1435.4(3)A3, Z = 2, Dc = 2.794 g/cm3, Mr = 1207.80,μ(MoKα) = 3.223 mm-1, F(000) = 1160, the final R = 0.0544 and wR = 0.1066 for 1906 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)).

New 1D and 2D metal oxygen connectivities in Cu(II) succinato and glutarato coordination polymers: [Cu3(H2O)2(OH)2(C4H4O4)2] · 4H2O, [Cu4(H2O)2(OH)4(C4H4O4)2] · 5H2O and [Cu5(OH)6(C5H6O4)2] · 4H2O

Two Cu(II) hydroxo succinates [Cu₃(H₂O)₂(OH)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (1) and [Cu₄(H₂O)₂(OH)₄(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?5H₂O (2) and one Cu(II) hydroxo glutarate [Cu₅(OH)₆(C₅H₆O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (3) have been prepared and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. They feature 1D and 2D copper oxygen connectivity of elongated {CuO₆} octahedra in “4?+?1?+?1” and “4?+?2” coordination geometries. Within 1, linear trimers of three edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra are connected into copper oxygen chains, which are bridged by the anti conformational succinate anions to generate 2D layers with mono terminally coordinating gauche succinate anions on both sides. The layers are assembled into a 3D framework by interlayer hydrogen bonds with lattice H₂O molecules distributed in channels. Different from 1, the principal building units in 2 are linear tetramers of four edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra. The tetramers are condensed into copper oxygen chains and the succinate anions interlink them into a 3D framework with triangular channels filled by lattice H₂O molecules. The {CuO₆} octahedra in 3 are edge-shared to form unprecedented 2D inorganic layers with mono terminally coordinating glutarate anions on both sides. Interlayer hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for supramolecular assembly of the layers into a 3D framework with lattice H₂O molecules in the channels. The inorganic layers in 3 can be described as hexagonal close packing of oxygen atoms with the Cu atoms in the octahedral cavities. The title compounds were further characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and thermal analyses.

The trinuclear unit is coordinated by mixed ligands of oxalate and bipy. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions among adjacent [Mo3O4(C2O4)2·bipy(H2O)3] extend the compound into a therr-dimensional supramolecular framework. The uncoordinated water molecules and ethal molecules act as space-fillers and consolidate the whole architecture through hydrogen bonding interactions.

The compounds (NH₄)₆[Mo₆V₂O₂₄(C₂O₄)₂]·6H₂O (I) and (NH₄)₄[H₂Mo₂V₂O₁₂(C₂O₄)₂]·2H₂O (II) have been prepared from molybdenum(VI) oxide and ammonium vanadate in aqueous solution through the addition of ammonium oxalate, and their structures determined by X-ray structure analysis. Whereas the molybdovanadate anion [Mo₆V₂O₂₄(C₂O₄)₂]⁶⁻ found in (I) consists of six MoO₆ and two VO₆ edge-sharing octahedra of the γ-[Mo₈O₂₆]⁴⁻ type structure, the tetranuclear anion [H₂Mo₂V₂O₁₂(C₂O₄)₂]⁴⁻ of (II) adopts the structure with a M₄O₁₆ core. Both complexes contain bidentate oxalato ligands bonded to the vanadium ions. In both crystal structures the molybdovanadate anions are mutually hydrogen bonded by ammonium ions and water molecules.     

Unique seven-node rare-earth octacyanomolybdate(IV) three-dimensional molecular frameworks: {[Er(H2O)5(Er(H2O)4)3][Mo(CN)8]3·11H2O}n and {[Eu(H2O)5(Eu(H2O)4)3][Mo(CN)8]3·11H2O}n

The crystal structure analyses of {[Er(H₂O)₅(Er(H₂O)₄)₃][Mo(CN)₈]₃·11H₂O}_n (1) and {[Eu(H₂O)₅(Eu(H₂O)₄)₃][Mo(CN)₈]₃·11H₂O}_n (2), show that they are not only new neutral three-dimensional rare-earth octacyanomolybdate(IV) molecular frameworks, but that they also belong to an unknown structure type having seven different nodes. To the best of our knowledge this is different to any other known molybdenum(IV) octacyanide complexes published to date. Both compounds crystallize in the triclinic system, space group P-1, and are isostructural and isotypic. The coordination polyhedra of the molybdenum atoms in the three different [Mo(CN)₈]⁴⁻ anions are trigonal prisms, with two additional atoms. A new bridging mode for octacyanometallates is also observed with five of the eight cyanide groups involved in bridging either three or four rare-earth atoms, while the three remaining cyanide groups are terminal and are involved in hydrogen bonding. The four rare-earth atoms in 1 and 2 have different coordination polyhedra in the form of trigonal prisms with two additional atoms. The three-dimensional structures are made up of infinite two-dimensional slabs linked by one of the rare-earth metal atoms. In both compounds, apart from the 17 coordinated water molecules, there are 11 lattice water molecules of crystallization present in the cavities of the three-dimensional frameworks. The 28 water molecules and the terminal CN⁻ groups are involved in an extensive O–H⋯O and O–H⋯N hydrogen bonding network.

Reaction of the [Mo₂O₂S₂(OH₂)₆]²⁺ aqua cation and [WO₄]^2? with the trivacant ion [α-B-AsW₉O₃₃]^9? in acidic condition (pH = 1.4) leads to the formation of a {Mo₂S₂O₂}-supported polyoxotungstate. The mixed salt NMe₄K₁₂[(α–AsW₉O₃₃)₃(WO(OH₂))₃(Mo₂O₂S₂(H₂O)₄)]?20H₂O (noted TMAK₁₂–1) has been obtained as single crystals and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The structural analysis of TMAK₁₂-1 reveals a molecular polyoxotungsto-arsenate (III) framework consisting of three α-{AsW₉O₃₃} subunits mutually linked by three {O = W-OH₂}⁴⁺ groups. The resulting triangular arrangement delimits a large “open-space”, lined on the periphery by six terminal oxygen atoms. The central cavity is partially filled by a single {Mo₂O₂S₂(OH₂)₄}²⁺ which spans two {AsW₉O₃₃} subunits. Furthermore, three potassium ions have been located, one being embedded within the central cavity and the other two, symmetrically distributed at the periphery of the central cavity. In the solid state, two anions 1 interact through hydrogen bonds and ionic contacts to give a large dimeric arrangement bordered by two TMA⁺ cations. 1 has been characterized in solution (Li⁺ salt) by its ¹⁸³W NMR spectrum which contains 16 lines in agreement with the C_s idealized symmetry assumed for the isolated anion 1. Infrared data and elemental analysis are also supplied.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of (H3O)2{(Na2(OH)CB[5])2[HV4O12]}Cl · 14H2O

According to the X-ray diffraction data, the binding of the [Na₂(OH)]⁺ binuclear cation with CB[5] occurs due to the bidentate coordination of the oxygen atoms of the portals of cucurbit[5]uril to the sodium atoms. The tetranuclear vanadium complex [HV₄O₁₂]^3? serves as a bridge, joining infinite chains {Na₂(OH)CB[5]} _∞ ⁺ in pairs.
