Two Isomers of C6H6F9O9Tb

Two isomers with empirical formula C₆H₆F₉O₉Tb are synthesized and their structures are studied. Isomerism was found to arise due to different positions of a proton. Crystals of two isomers are isostructural and form continuous series of solid solutions with C₆H₆F₉O₉Eu.

Copper(II) compounds with the optically active diaminodioxime (H₂L) derived from the monoterpenoid (+)-3-carene, Cu(H₂L)(NO₃)₂ H₂O (I), Cu(H₂L)(ClO₄)₂ H₂O (II), Cu(H₂L)Br₂ H₂O (III), and Cu(H₂L)SO₄0.5H₂O (IV) with µ_eff equal to 1.81, 1.79, 1.71, and 1.8 µ_B, respectively, were prepared. Studies of the complexes by IR and EPR spectroscopy showed that I and II are mononuclear ionic complexes. Compound III apparently has polymeric structure (the CuN₄Br₂ coordination unit). According to EPR data, the Cu²⁺ ions in polycrystalline compounds III and IV undergo exchange interactions.Translated from Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 30, No. 12, 2004, pp. 897–900.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Larionov, Myachina, Sheludyakova, Boguslavskii, Tkachev, Bizyaev.     

On the symmetry of iron(III) tris-acetylacetonate crystals

The crystal structure of iron tris-acetylacetonate is re-determined. Crystal data at 293 K are: a = 15.4524(5) Å, b = 13.5876(4) Å, c = 16.5729(7) Å, Z = 8; at 150 K: a = 15.2541(4) Å, b = 13.4451(3) Å, c = 16.4256(5) Å, Z = 8. The structure is molecular and comprises isolated molecules. The coordination polyhderon of iron is an almost regular octahedron, Fe-O bond lengths are 1.977–2.003 Å (293 K) and 1.982–2.006 Å (150 K). In the crystalline state, the molecules are arranged in layers, and iron atoms are located on a plane yielding an almost regular trigonal net with the Fe...Fe separations of 7.558–8.103 Å (293 K) and 7.472–8.017 Å (150 K). The adjacent layer is positioned exactly over the first one with a Fe...Fe distance of 8.303 Å (293 K) and 8.236 Å (150 K).     

Synthesis and structure of optically active compounds [Ni(HL1)]NO3 and [Ni(HL2)]NO3H2O containing anions of diaminodioximes H2L1 and H2L2 derived from α-Pinene and (+)-3-Carene as Ligands

New optically active levorotatory compounds [Ni(HL¹)]NO₃ (I) and [Ni(HL²)]NO₃H₂O (II) containing the anions of chiral diaminodioximes, H₂L¹ and H₂L², derived from the terpenes ±-pinene and (+)-3-carene, respectively, were synthesized. Complexes I and II were studied by X-ray diffraction. The crystal structures of compounds are ionic, being composed of the [Ni(HL¹)]⁺ or [Ni(HL²)]⁺ cations and the outer-sphere NO₃^– anions. The Ni²⁺ ion coordinates four N atoms of the tetradentate chelating ligand, the NiN₄ coordination unit being shaped like a tetrahedrally distorted square. Compounds I and II are diamagnetic, which corresponds to a low-spin d⁸ configuration. The NMR spectra of compounds were recorded and analyzed.Translated from Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 30, No. 12, 2004, pp. 888–896.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Larionov, Myachina, Saveleva, Glinskaya, Klevtsova, Sheludyakova, Tkachev, Bizyaev.     

Hexachlorocuprate(II) Anion: Vibration Spectra and Structure

For the complexes (CH₈N₄)₂[CuCl₆], (C₂H₉N₅)₂[CuCl₆] · 2H₂O, and (CH₈N₄O)₄[CuCl₆]Cl₄, where (CH₈N₄)²⁺, (C₂H₉N₅)²⁺, and (CH₈N₄O)²⁺ are the aminoguanidinium, biguanidium, and carbohydrazidium cations, respectively, IR and Raman spectra were taken and analyzed in the region of Cu—Cl vibrations. Polarization measurements of the Raman spectra of (CH₈N₄O)₄[CuCl₆]Cl₄ single crystals were performed with the purpose of assigning the vibrations to symmetry types. Vibration spectra were calculated for the hexachlorocuprate ion in the given series of compounds, and the spectra of the examined complexes were compared with spectra of the previously known compounds incorporating the hexachlorocuprate(II) ion.     

Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) Complexes with 1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-Triazole

New complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole (L) of the composition ML₂(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₂ · nH₂O (M = Co(II), n = 3; M = Ni(II), n = 0; M = Cu(II), n = 0) were synthesized and studied by photoelectron and IR spectroscopy, magnetochemistry, thermogravimetry, and X-ray powder diffraction analysis. The type of _eff(T) relationship suggests that paramagnetic centers in the Co(II) chloride and Cu(II) nitrate and bromide complexes are involved in antiferromagnetic exchange interactions. The exchange energy values were estimated by the molecular field method.
