Influence of the central metal on the crystal structures and electronic structures of biferrocene trinuclear complexes

Five metal-bridged biferrocene complexes of the Schiff-base ligand (HL = S-benzyl-N-(ferrocenyl-1-methyl-methylidene)dithiocarbazate) have been studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction and ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The crystal structures of the complexes show that the central metal ions are tetra-coordinated by two ligands in two modes: the central d⁸ transition metal ions (Ni²⁺, Pd²⁺, and Pt²⁺) are nearly square-planar coordinated and the d¹⁰ transition metal ions (Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺) are tetrahedrally coordinated. Interestingly, the isomer shifts in ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy are also of two kinds: d⁸ transition metal ions (0.097-0.247 mm/s) and d¹⁰ transition metal ions (0.416-0.435 mm/s).     

Structural characterization and excited-state properties of luminescent <Emphasis Type="Italic">Tris</Emphasis>-(μ -3-methyl-5- trifluoromethylpyrazolato)trigold(I)

Tris-(-(3-methyl-5-trifluoromethylpyrazolato)-N:N)triangulo-trigold(I), (3,5-tfmpz)₃ Au₃, has been synthesized and exhibits a planar nine-member ring containing a central gold triangle with an average intramolecular Au–Au distance of 3.3455(8) Å. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group Cc with a = 12.998(2) Å, b = 22.910 (3) Å, c = 7.217(1) Å, and = 104.781(1). The solid-state structure consists of sheets of (3,5-tfmpz)₃Au₃ units stacked in an offset fashion along the c axis such that one gold atom in each Au₃ unit (Au1) lies approximately over the midpoint of the Au1–Au3 edge of the triangle in the layer below it. The intermolecular Au–Au distances are between 3.880(1) and 4.023(1) Å, which are too long for there to be significant intertrimer bonding interaction suggesting that any supramolecular organization may be due to hydrogen-fluorine and fluorine-fluorine interactions between the molecules. The complex exhibits excitation-dependent emission at room temperature in the solid state. The structured higher energy emission (_em = 468, 517, and 556(sh) nm) is believed to be a ligand-centered ^* transition with a lower energy unstructured emission (_em = 658 nm) assigned to the classical Au–Au excited state transition.

Synthesis,structure and characterization of the trinuclear copper (I) complex [Cu3(μ3-Br)2(dppm)3]Br

The novel trinuclear copper(I) complex [Cu₃(μ₃,-Br)₂(dppm)₃]Br has been obtained by reaction of bis(diphenyl-phosphino)methane (dppm) with cupric bromide. The title complex was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis, elemental analysis, molecular weight determination, ³¹P NMR and its conductivity was also measured. The [ Cu₃ (dppm)₃ Br₂ ]⁺ cation consists of a triangular array of copper atoms, with dppm ligands (Ph₂ PCH₂ PPh₂) bridging each edge of the triangle and two triply bridging Br groups bound to the two faces of the Cu₃ unit. Crystallographic data: monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a = 1.4739(4), b = l.7708(5), c = 2.8395(8) nm, β= 97.16(3)°, V = 7.353nm³, Z = 4, F(000)= 3296, D_calc, = 1.472 g/cm³, μ = 26.478 cm^?1, R=0.06, R_W = 0.08, 4654 reflections observed with I3≥(I).     

Crystal structure analysis of Bis{(N,N′‐dimethylformamide)‐[μ‐bis‐N,N′‐(2‐oxybenzyl)‐1,3‐propanediaminato](μ‐asetato) nickel(II)}nickel(II)

The title compound, a homotrinuclear Ni^II complex has been synthesized from ONNO type Schiff base reduced with the help of NaBH₄. The structure of the complex, [Ni{Ni(CH₃CO₂) (C₁₇H₂₀N₂O₂) (C₃H₇NO)}₂], was identified using elemental analysis, thermal analysis, IR spectroscopy and x‐ray diffraction techniques. It was established that although some bond lengths and angles changed with respect to previous complexes, the Ni…Ni distance was approximately the same.     

Synthesis,characterization and crystal structure of a new linear trinuclear manganese(II) complex, [Mn3(PhCH=CHCO2)6(BPY)2] · H2O (BPY=2,2-bipyridine)

A new trinuclear manganese(II) complex, [Mn₃(PhCH=CHCO₂)₆(bpy)₂]?·?H₂O (1) (bpy?=?2,2-bipyridine), was synthesized by the reaction of Mn(OH)₂ with cinnamate in H₂O/methanolic solution and its solid state structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analyses suggest that 1 consists of a linear arrangement of three Mn(II) centers, bridged by six cinnamate carboxylate groups. Four of these carboxylates are syn–syn bidentate, and two are monodentate bridging plus bidentate chelating. Mn(2) on a crystallographic inversion center has a slightly disorted octahedral geometry; the terminal six-coordinate Mn(1) atoms are significantly distorted octahedra. Weak intermolecular interactions such as C–H?···?O hydrogen-bonding and π–π stacking are responsible for supramolecular assembly of the molecules. Compound 1 was characterized by infrared spectrum, thermogravimetric and X-ray powder diffraction analyses.     

PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF PYRIDINE DICARBOXYLIC ACID COMPLEXES OF THE LANTHANIDES

Abstract

The preparation and spectroscopic properties of eleven hydrated lanthanide (III) dipicolinate and quinolinate complexes are reported for the first time. The complexes are of three general types: M(dipi)(dipiH)(H₂O)₄, M(dipiH)₃(H₂O) and M(quin)(quinH)(H₂O)₃ [where M =lanthanide (III); dipiH₂ =pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (dipicolinic acid); quinH₂ =pyridine-2, 3-dicarboxylic acid (quinolinic acid)], and evidence is presented which indicates that they may be six-coordinate.
