Chains, ladders and sheets of d metal–organic polymers generated from the flexible bipyridyl ligands

By use of the three-layer diffusion method, reactions of flexible bipyridyl ligands (4,4′-bpp or 3,3′-bpp) with M(II) salts (M = Zn, Cd) and multi-carboxylate ligands resulted in the formation of four interesting d¹⁰ metal–organic coordination polymers: [Zn(μ-4,4′-bpp)Br₂]_n (1), [Zn(μ-4,4′-bpp)(1,2-bdc)]_n · nH₂O (2), [Zn(μ-3,3′-bpp)(1,3-bdc)]_n · nCH₃OH · 2nH₂O (3) and [Cd(μ-3,3′-bpp)(C₄H₂O₄)]_n · 3nH₂O (4) (4,4′-bpp = 2,2′-bis(4-pyridylmethyleneoxy)-1,1′-biphenylene; 3,3′-bpp = 2,2 ′-bis(3-pyridylmethyleneoxy)-1,1′-biphenylene; bdc=benzenedicarboxylate, C₄H₄O₄ = fumaric acid). Complex 1 has a 2D sheet structure consisting of two unusual zigzag Zn(II) chains which are nearly perpendicular to each other. Complex 2 is comprised of two-leg ladders, in which [Zn(4,4′-bpp)] chains serve as the side rails and 1,2-bdc ligands serve as the cross rungs. In complex 3, every two 1,3-bdc ligands connect the neighbouring Zn(II)-3,3′-bpp dimetallic rings in η¹ coordination modes into an interesting chain structure. Complex 4 consists of an anionic macrocycle-containing cadmium dicarboxylate sheets that are separated by 3,3′-bpp. These d¹⁰ metal complexes exhibit high thermal stabilities and strong luminescence efficiencies.

Synthesis and Characterization of Three Homoleptic Bismuth Silanolates: [Bi(OSiR3)3] (R = Me,Et, iPr)

The bismuth tris(triorganosilanolates) [Bi(OSiR₃)₃] ( 1 , R = Me; 2 , R = Et; 3 , R = iPr) were prepared by reaction of R₃SiOH with [Bi(OtBu)₃]. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group with Z = 2 and the lattice constants a = 10.323(1) Å, b = 13.805(1) Å, c = 21.096(1) Å and α = 91.871(4)°, β = 94.639(3)°, γ = 110.802(3)°. In the solid state compound 1 is a trimer as result of weak intermolecular bismuth‐oxygen interactions with Bi–O distances in the range 2.686(6)–3.227(3) Å. The coordination at the bismuth atoms Bi(1) and Bi(3) is best described as 3 + 2 coordination whereas Bi(2) shows a 3 + 3 coordination. The intramolecular Bi–O distances fall in the range 2.041(3)–2.119(3) Å. Compound 3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcm with Z = 4 and the lattice constants a = 7.201(1) Å, b = 23.367(5) Å and c = 20.893(1) Å, whereas the triethylsilyl‐derivative 2 is liquid. In contrast to [Bi(OSiMe₃)₃] ( 1 ) compound 3 is monomeric in the solid state, but shows similar intramolecular Bi–O distances in the range 1.998(2)–2.065(5) Å. The bismuth silanolates are highly soluble in common organic solvents and strongly moisture sensitive. Compound 1 shows the lowest thermal stability.     

Copper(II) Complexes of ω‐Hydroxy‐Functionalized N‐Salicylidenehydrazides show pH‐Controlled Switching between Dicationic Dimers and Neutral One‐Dimensional Coordination Polymers

New copper(II) complexes of the hydrazone ligands H₂salhyhb, H₂salhyhp, and H₂salhyhh, derived from salicylaldehyde and ω‐hydroxy carbonic acid hydrazides, have been synthesized and physically characterized. Two fundamental structures were found in solid state depending on the pH‐value of the reaction solution. Acidic conditions lead to the formation of the di‐μ‐phenoxo‐bridged dicationic complex dimers [{Cu(Hsalhyhb)}₂]²⁺ ( 1a ), [{Cu(Hsalhyhp)}₂]²⁺ ( 2a ), and [{Cu(Hsalhyhh)}₂]²⁺ ( 3a ), isolated as perchlorate salts. The dimeric complexes show strong antiferromagnetic coupling with J = ?399 ( 1a ), ?410 ( 2a ), and ?311 cm^?1 ( 3a ). Higher pH‐values resulted in the aggregation of neutral copper ligand fragments to the one‐dimensional coordination polymers [{Cu(salhyhb)}_n] ( 1b ), [{Cu(salhyhp)}_n] ( 2b ), and [{Cu(salhyhh)}_n] ( 3b ). 3b has been examined by means of X‐ray crystallography and represents the first example of a structurally characterized neutral copper(II) N‐salicylidenehydrazide complex without additional ligands. The magnetic interactions in the polymers are also antiferromagnetic with J = ?125 ( 1b ), ?136 ( 2b ), and ?148 cm^?1 ( 3b ), but strongly reduced compared to the corresponding dimeric complexes. The two basic structure types can be reversibly interconverted simply by pH‐control.     

Second-sphere coordination in hexaamminecobalt(III) salt with organic sulphonate anion: Synthesis, characterisation and X-ray crystal structure of [Co(NH3)6](CH3SO3)3

Reaction of hexaamminecobalt(III) chloride with the silver salt of methanesulphonic acid in aqueous medium (1:3 molar ratio) forms hexaamminecobalt(III) methanesulphonate, [Co(NH₃)₆](CH₃SO₃)₃, in high yield. This cobalt(III) complex has been characterized by spectroscopic techniques (UV/visible, IR and NMR) and its solubility product determined. The X-ray crystal structure shows that the [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ cations interact at the second sphere by sharing edges with the anions, via N–H  O hydrogen bonds. The structure is related to that of [Co(NH₃)₆]Cl(CH₃SO₃)₂, but is modified to accommodate additional anions in place of Cl⁻.     

New tetradentate Schiff-base polymers: preparation of poly[2,5-(didodecyloxy)phenylene-1,4-diyl-alt-N,N-(o-phenylene)-bis(salicylideneiminato-4,4-diyl)] and poly[2,5-(didodecyloxy)phenylene-1,4-diyl-alt-N,N-(alkylidene)-bis(salicylideneiminato-4,4-diyl)]s

New tetradentate Schiff-base polymers, in which phenylene units alternate with salicylideneiminato units, have been prepared by condensation of 2,5-(didodecyloxy)-1,4-bis(3-formyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)benzene (DFHB) with appropriate diamines in a mixed solution of CHCl₃/toluene/acetic acid with 31-79% yields. DFHB as the key building block was prepared by the Suzuki reaction of 2,5-(didodecyloxy)benzene-1,4-diboronic acid with 5-bromosalicylaldehyde in a two-phase solution of tetrahydrofuran/water in the presence of NaHCO₃/Pd(PPh₃)₄ in 45% yield. The molecular structures of the prepared compounds were identified by spectroscopy. Their absorption spectroscopic profiles have been analyzed.     

Ascorbic Acid Oxidation at Nonmodified and Copper‐Modified Polyaniline and Poly‐ortho‐methoxyaniline Coated Electrodes

The electrochemical oxidation of ascorbate ions is comparatively studied at polyaniline (PANI) and poly‐ortho‐methoxyaniline (POMA) layers in absence and presence of electrodeposited copper species. In comparison to PANI, POMA layers allow decreasing the overpotential necessary for driving the ascorbate oxidation reaction. A nonlinear dependence of the ascorbate oxidation current on the polymer layer redox charge is found. Copper electrodeposited in PANI and POMA layers is electrocatalytically active for the investigated reaction. Two separate oxidation waves are observed in the case of Cu‐PANI whereas a single ascorbate oxidation wave and enhanced currents are found in the Cu‐POMA case.

Polysulfonylamines. CLXIII. Crystal Structures of Metal Di(methanesulfonyl)amides. 12. The Orthorhombic Double Salt Na₂Cs₂[(CH₃SO₂)₂N]₄·3H₂O: A Three‐Dimensional Coordination Polymer Built up from Cesium‐Anion‐Water Layers and Intercalated Sodium Ions The packing arrangement of the three‐dimensional coordination polymer Na₂Cs₂[(MeSO₂)₂N]₄·3H₂O (orthorhombic, space group Pna2₁, Z′ = 1) is in some respects similar to that of the previously reported sodium‐potassium double salt Na₂K₂[(MeSO₂)₂N]₄·4H₂O (tetragonal, P4₃2₁2, Z′ = 1/2). In the present structure, four multidentately coordinating independent anions, three independent aquo ligands and two types of cesium cation form monolayer substructures that are associated in pairs to form double layers via a Cs(1)—H₂O—Cs(2) motif, thus conferring upon each Cs⁺ an irregular O₈N₂ environment drawn from two N, O‐chelating anions, two O, O‐chelating anions and two water molecules. Half of the sodium ions occupy pseudo‐inversion centres situated between the double layers and have an octahedral O₆ coordination built up from four anions and two water molecules, whereas the remaining Na⁺ are intercalated within the double layers in a square‐pyramidal and pseudo‐C₂ symmetric O₅ environment provided by four anions and the water molecule of the Cs—H₂O—Cs motif. The net effect is that each of the four independent anions forms bonds to two Cs⁺ and two Na⁺, two independent water molecules are involved in Cs—H₂O—Na motifs, and the third water molecule acts as a μ₃‐bridging ligand for two Cs⁺ and one Na⁺. The crystal cohesion is reinforced by a three‐dimensional network of conventional O—H···O=S and weak C—H···O=S/N hydrogen bonds.
