Synthesis and Structure of a Dinuclear Copper（Ⅱ）- ditetrazolate Involving in situ Ligand Synthesis

The hydrothermal reaction of 1,2-dicyanobenzene with NaN3 in the presence of CuCl2, 2,2′-bipyridine and H2O affords a novel dinuclear copper(II)-ditetrazolate, [Cu(bpy)- (pdtz)]2 (Hpdtz = 5,5′-1,2-phenylene-ditetrazole, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine). The pdtz ligand is generated in situ through Sharpless 2 3 cycloaddition reaction. Its crystal structure was deter- mined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The crystal crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with a = 8.2096(16), b = 18.580(4), c = 11.838(2) , β = 103.12(3)o, V = 1758.5(6) 3, Z = 2, Mr = 863.83, Dc = 1.631 g/cm3, F(000) = 876 and μ = 1.272 mm-1. In this novel dinuclear structure, the pdtz ligand adopts a peculiar μ2-η1,η2 coordination mode.

Two 3D supramolecular polymers constructed from an amino acid and a high-nuclear Ln6Cu24 cluster node

The first successful attempt to construct 3D supramolecular frameworks with high-nuclear 3d-4f heterometallic clusters as a node is reported. The self-assembly of Ln3+, Cu2+ and amino acid in solution leads to the formation of two polymers, 35-nuclear complex [Sm6Cu29] 1 with a primitive cubic net-like structure and 36-nuclear complex [Nd6Cu30] 2 with a face-centred cubic network type structure. Glycine and L-proline, respectively, were used as ligands. It should be noted that 2 has a chiral framework. X-ray structure analyses show that 1 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group (a=19.6451(8), b=20.4682(8), c=20.7046(8) A, alpha=89.453(1), beta=66.290(1), gamma=68.572(1) degrees, V=7003.0(5) A3 and Z=1) and 2 belongs to the cubic P2(1)3 space group (a=b=c=32.4341(3) A, V=34 119.7(5) A3 and Z=4). Both complexes utilize Ln6Cu24 octahedral clusters as nodes and trans-Cu(amino acid)2 groups as bridges. Electrical conductivity measurements reveal that both polymers behave as semiconductors.     

Synthesis, structure, and fluorescence of the novel cadmium(II)-trimesate coordination polymers with different coordination architectures

Three novel complexes, Cd3tma2*13H2O (1), Cd3tma2*dabco*2H2O (2), and Cd3Htma3*8H2O (3) (tma = trimesate), of cadmium(II)-trimesate coordination polymers are obtained from hydrothermal reaction. 1 (C18H32O25Cd3) crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group [a = 18.985(2) A, b = 7.3872(6) A, c = 20.432(2) A, = 97.1660(10), and Z = 4]. 2 (C24H22N2O14Cd3) crystallizes in the monoclinic P2(1)/c space group [a = 10.1323(2) A, b = 19.5669(5) A, c = 13.15880(10) A, = 108.9810(10), and Z = 4]. 3 (C27H28O26Cd3) belongs to the trigonal P31c space group [a = 15.7547(3) A, b = 15.7547(3) A, c = 7.93160(10) A, and Z = 2]. The Cd(II) centers in the three complexes are bridged by tma ligands in the coordination fashion of unidentate, bridging unidentate, bidentate, chelating bis-bidentate, chelating/bridging bis-bidentate, or chelating/bridging bidentate to form the T-shaped molecular bilayer motif for 1, chicken-wire-like motif for 2, and honeycomb-like porous structure for 3, respectively, in which the T-shaped molecular bilayer motif and chicken-wire-like motif are further interlinked in interdigitating or alternating fashion to construct the different coordination architectures. These three complexes exhibit strong fluorescent emission bands at 355 nm (lambda(ex) = 220 nm) for 1, 437 nm (lambda(ex) = 365 nm) for 2, and 353 nm (lambda(ex) = 218 nm) for 3 in the solid state at room temperature.

A new mixed-valence cyanide-bridged complex, Br3Fe(μ-NC)RuBr(dppm)2(dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane), was obtained through the reaction between trans-(dppm)2ClRuCN and FeBr3. Its crystal structure was characterized. Electronic absorption spectra indicate the existence of metal-to-metal charge transfer(MMCT) and this complex is Class Ⅱ mixed valence complexes according to the classification of Robin and Day. Magnetic analysis shows it is paramagnetic.

Treatment of resorcin[4]arene tetracarboxylic acid 1 with triethylamine in the presence of Co(CH3COO)2·4H2O and 4,4'-bipyridine gave a co-crystallization 14-·4Et3NH+(C32H20O164-·4Et3NH+,Mr=1069.27) from ethanol and water.The compound was structurally determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The crystal belongs to monoclinic,space group P21/n,with a=8.1763(18),b=12.913(3),c=28.724(7) ,β=97.574(4)o,V=3006.3(12) 3,Z=2,Dc=1.181 g/cm3,F(000)=1152,Rint=0.0275,T=293(2) K,μ=0.086 mm-1,the final R=0.0634 and wR=0.1752 for 5082 observed reflections with Ⅰ 2σ(Ⅰ).The co-crystallization is very stable at room temperature.Possibly,a network of N-H···O(=C) plays an important role in the structure.Meanwhile,the compound emits a weak cyan luminescence with peak maximum band at 458 nm.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Glycinato Copper Compound

1 INTRODUCTION Amino acids (AA) are some of the most important biological ligands, and metal ions are known to par- ticipate in a variety of biological reactions, therefore, research on the coordination behavior of metal-ami- no acid complexes is one of the most essential ele- ments of chemical biology[1, 2]. For over three deca- des their structures have been of considerable inte- rest and importance in coordination chemistry[2, 3]. Studies of these relatively simple complexes may en- ha…     

KCs2[Pb2Br5(HCOO)2]: A Polar 3D Lead-Bromide Framework Exhibiting Strong Second-Harmonic Generation Response

The discovery of new nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals with excellent properties is in urgently demand because of their ability to generate coherent light. Herein, we report an unique NLO lead bromide formate, KCs₂[Pb₂Br₅ (HCOO)₂], which has been synthesized by a mix-solvothermal method. KCs₂[Pb₂Br₅(HCOO)₂] exhibits strong phase-matching second-harmonic generation (SHG) response (6.5×KDP), large birefringence (0.16@ 1064 nm), and a wide transparent window in most visible light and mid-IR region. Interestingly, KCs₂[Pb₂Br₅(HCOO)₂] features a polar 3D lead-bromide framework in which adjacent Pb−Br layers containing coplanar Pb₆Br₆ rings are not only parallel to each other, but also orient in the same direction. These oriented arrangements are responsible for the strong SHG response and large birefringence that are elucidated by both local dipole moment and theoretical calculations. This research provides a new strategy to explore subsequent NLO crystals.     

Influence of Changing the Remote Substituents on Charge Transfer Properties of Cyanide-Bridged Trinuclear Fe−Ru−Fe Complexes

To investigate the effect of ligand remote (>10 Å) substituents on the bridging metal center on the metal-to-metal charge transfer (MMCT) properties in cyanidometa-bridged complexes, a series of new cyanidometal-bridged complexes and their one-electron and two-electron oxidation products have been synthesized and well characterized (namely, trans-[Cp(dppe)Fe−NC−(L)Ru(PPh₃)−CN−Fe(dppe)Cp][PF₆]_n (n=2, 3, 4) (L=dmptpy, 1[PF₆]_n ; L=meoptpy, 2[PF₆]_n ; L=t-Buptpy, 3[PF₆]_n ) (Cp=1,3-cyclopentadiene, dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, PPh₃=triphenylphosphine, dmptpy=4′-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-2,2′,6′,2′′-terpyridine, meoptpy=4′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2′,6′,2′′-terpyridine, t-Buptpy=4′-(4-tertbutylphenyl)-2,2′,6′,2′′-terpyridine)). The investigations suggest that the cyanido-stretching (ν_CN) vibration energy for the complexes is unsensitive to the electron-donating ability change of the remote substituents of the cyanidometal bridging auxiliary ligand from tertbutyl, methoxy to dimethylamino group. However, the MMCT energies of the one- and two-electron oxidation complexes are still sensitive to the remote substituents of the ligand on the bridging metal center, and decreases with the increase of the electron-donating ability of the remote substituents from tertbutyl, methoxy to dimethylamino group. All one-electron and two-electron oxidation products belong to Class II mixed valence compounds according to the classification of Robin and Day.
