Preparation and crystal structure of the oxalato-bridged CrIII–AgItwo-dimensional compound {Ag3(H2O)[Cr(dpa)(ox)2]3}n·2nH2O (dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamine)

The reaction of the mononuclear complex [Cr(dpa)(ox)2]− (dpa = 2,2-dipyridylamine) with Ag+ in aqueous solution affords the two-dimensional compound {Ag3(H2O)[Cr(dpa)(ox)2]3}n·2nH2O (1) whose structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Six crystallographically independent metal atoms (three chromium and three silver atoms) occur in 1. The three [Cr(dpa)(ox)2]− units in 1 act as ligands towards the silver atoms through the two oxalate groups. Each oxalate group acts as bridging ligand adopting five coordination modes: bis-bidentate, bis-bidentate/monodentate (outer), bis-bidentate/monodentate (inner), bidentate/bis-monodentate (outer) and bidentate/monodentate (outer).…

Abstract A novel heterotetranuclear chromium(III)–copper(II) complex of formula {[CrIII(bpy)(ox)2]2CuII2(bpy)2(ox)}·6H2O (1) has been synthesized by the ligand exchange reaction between Ph4P[CrIII(bpy)(ox)2]·H2O and [CuII(bpy)2(NO3)]NO3·MeOH in methanol (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine; ox2− = oxalate dianion). The X-ray crystal structure of 1 consists of neutral oxalato-bridged CrIII2Cu2II zigzag entities which are formed by the monodentate coordination of two [CrIII(bpy)(ox)2]− mononuclear anionic units through one of its two oxalato groups toward a [CuII2(bpy)2(ox)]2+ dinuclear cationic moiety featuring relatively long axial bonds at the square pyramidal CuII ions.

Malonate-based copper(II) coordination compounds: Ferromagnetic coupling controlled by dicarboxylates

Studies on structural and magnetic properties of polynuclear transition metal complexes, aimed at understanding the structural and chemical factors governing electronic exchange coupling mediated by multiatom bridging ligands, are of continuing interest to design new molecular materials exhibiting unusual magnetic, optical and electrical properties, bound to their molecular nature. Looking at potentially flexible bridging ligands, the malonate group seems a suitable candidate. The occurrence of two carboxylate groups in the 1,3 positions allows this ligand to adopt simultaneously chelating bidentate and different carboxylato bridging modes (syn–syn, anti–anti and syn–anti trough one or two …

Malonic acid: A multi-modal bridging ligand for new architectures and properties on molecule-based magnets

Abstract In this work, we show how the design of one-, two- and three-dimensional materials can strongly benefit from the use of crystal engineering techniques, which can give rise to structures of different shapes, and how these differences can give rise to different properties. We will focus on the networks constructed by assembling malonate ligands and metal centres. The idea of using malonate (dianion of propanedioic acid, H 2 mal) is that they can give rise to different coordination modes with the metal ions bind. Extended magnetic networks of dimensionalities 1 (1D), 2 (2D) and 3 (3D) can be chemically constructed from malonato-bridged metallic complexes. These coordination polymers b…

Intramolecular ferro- and antiferromagnetic interactions in oxo-carboxylate bridged digadolinium(iii) complexes

Two new digadolinium(III) complexes with monocarboxylate ligands, [Gd2(pac)6(H2O)4] (1) and [Gd2(tpac)6(H2O)4] (2) (Hpac = pentanoic acid and Htpac = 3-thiopheneacetic acid), have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. Their structures consist of neutral and isolated digadolinium(III) units, containing six monocarboxylate ligands and four coordinated water molecules, the bridging skeleton being built by a muO(1):kappa2O(1)O(2) framework.

Cañadillas-Delgado, …

Ferromagnetic coupling in the malonato-bridged copper(ii) chains [Cu(Im)2(mal)]nand [Cu(2-MeIm)2(mal)]n(H2mal = malonic acid, Im = imidazole and 2-MeIm = 2-methylimidazole)

Two new malonato-bridged copper(II) complexes of formula [Cu(Im)2(mal)]n (1) and [Cu(2-MeIm)2(mal)]n (2) (Im=imidazole, 2-MeIm=2-methylimidazole and mal=malonate dianion) have been prepared and their structures solved by X-ray diffraction methods. The [Cu(Im)2(mal)] and [Cu(2-MeIm)2(mal)] neutral entities act as monodentate ligands towards the adjacent copper(II) units through one of the two carboxylate groups, the OCO bridge exhibiting an anti-anti conformation. The environment of each copper atom in 1 and 2 is distorted square pyramidal: two carboxylate oxygen atoms from a bidentate malonate and two nitrogen atoms from two imidazole (1) or 2-methylimidazole (2) ligands form the equatorial…

A step further in the comprehension of the magnetic coupling in gadolinium(III)-based carboxylate complexes

Three new gadolinium(III) complexes of formula [Gd4(bta) 3(H2O)16]n·12nH2O (1), [Gd4(bta)3(H2O)12] n·18nH2O (2) and [Gd2(H 2bta)(bta)(H2O)2]n·4nH 2O (3) (H4bta = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid) have been synthesized and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction. 1 and 3 are three-dimensional compounds whereas 2 exhibits a two-dimensional structure. The ability of the bta4- to adopt different coordination modes accounts for these high dimensionalities although it precludes a rational structural design. The structures of 1-3 have in common the double oxo-carboxylate bridge between gadolinium(III) ions (μ-O: κ2O,O′) either as a discrete units (1 and 2) or as a chain (3) and one (3)…

Solid‐State Anion–Guest Encapsulation by Metallosupramolecular Capsules Made from Two Tetranuclear Copper(II) Complexes

A new cationic tetranuclear copper(II) complex self-assembles from one 1,3-phenylenebis(oxamato) (mpba) bridging ligand and four CuII ions partially blocked with N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmen) terminal ligands. In the solid state, two of these tetracopper(II) oxamato complexes of bowl-like shape and helical conformation then serve as a building block for the generation of either hetero- (MP) or homochiral (MM/PP) dimeric capsules depending on the nature of the encapsulated anion guest, perchlorate or hexafluorophosphate. The overall magnetic behaviour of these metallosupramolecular capsules does not depend on the nature of the encapsulated anion guest, but it is consistent with…

Two new compounds K(3)[Cu(3)(Hmesox)(3)(H(2)O)] x 4 H(2)O (1) and {(PPh(4))(2)[CoCu(3)(Hmesox)(3)Cl]} (2) [H(4)mesox = mesoxalic acid (2-dihydroxymalonic acid) and PPh(4)(+) = tetraphenylphosphonium cation] have been prepared and magneto-structurally characterized. Compound 1 contains the [Cu(3)(Hmesox)(3)](3-) entity which can be considered as a new precursor for molecular magnetism. In 1 the triangular arrangement of three copper(II) ions bridged by alkoxo groups are further connected to a symmetry-related tricopper(II) unit through a double oxo(carboxylate) bridge. The resulting hexacopper(II) entities are joined further through anti-syn carboxylate groups into an anionic three-dimension…

Copper(II)-phenylmalonate complexes with the bifunctional ligands nicotinamide and isonicotinamide

Abstract The use as coligands of the nicotinamide (nia) and isonicotinamide (inia) molecules in the complex formation between copper(II) and phenylmalonate [Phmal = dianion of phenylmalonic acid] yielded the compounds of formula [Cu(inia)(Phmal)(H2O)] (1) and [Cu(inia)(Phmal)(H2O)]n (2). Although single crystals of 1 of appropriate size were grown, their unresolved twinning and space group ambiguity prevented a satisfactory X-ray structure determination. The crystal structure 2 consists of corrugated layers of copper(II) ions with intralayer carboxylate–phenylmalonate bridges in the anti-syn (equatorial-apical) coordination mode. A water molecule and the isonicotinamide group are coordinate…

Compound 2 is a three-dimensional comp…

Oligo-m-phenyleneoxalamide Copper(II) Mesocates as Electro-Switchable Ferromagnetic Metal–Organic Wires

Double-stranded copper(II) string complexes of varying nuclearity, from di- to tetranuclear species, have been prepared by the CuII-mediated self-assembly of a novel family of linear homo- and heteropolytopic ligands that contain two outer oxamato and either zero (1 b), one (2 b), or two (3 b) inner oxamidato donor groups separated by rigid 2-methyl-1,3-phenylene spacers. The X-ray crystal structures of these CuIIn complexes (n=2 (1 d), 3 (2 d), and 4 (3 d)) show a linear array of metal atoms with an overall twisted coordination geometry for both the outer CuN2O2 and inner CuN4 chromophores. Two such nonplanar all-syn bridging ligands 1 b–3 b in an anti arrangement clamp around the metal ce…

Reversible Solvatomagnetic Switching in a Spongelike Manganese(II)-Copper(II) 3D Open Framework with a Pillared Square/Octagonal Layer Architecture

The concept of "molecular magnetic sponges" was introduced for the first time in 1999 by the creative imagination of the late Olivier Kahn. It refers to the exotic spongelike behavior of certain molecule-based materials that undergo a dramatic change of their magnetic properties upon reversible dehydration/rehydration processes. Here we report a unique example of a manganese(II)-copper(II) mixed-metal-organic framework of formula [Na(H(2)O)(4)](4)[Mn(4){Cu(2)(mpba)(2)(H(2)O)(4)}(3)]·56.5H(2)O (1) (mpba=N,N'-1,3-phenylenebis(oxamate)).

Extending the halogen-bonded supramolecular synthon concept to 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives

A series of five crystal structures of 1:1 halogen-bonded complexes were obtained from 4-[5-(4-alkoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl]pyridine and 1,3,5-trifluorotriiodobenzene. Electronic structure calculations show that the N(oxadiazole)⋯I interaction in the new synthon is as strong as the classic N(pyridine)⋯I interaction. Oxygen to sulfur atom subsitution on the oxadiazole ring results in a different supramolecular packing where the N(pyridine)⋯I interaction is favored, which could be rationalized by the changes in the molecular electrostatic potential predicted from the theoretical calculations.

Solid‐State Anion–Guest Encapsulation by Metallosupramolecular Capsules Made from Two Tetranuclear Copper(II) Complexes (Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 29/2007)

The cover picture shows unique examples of homo- and heterochiral, dimeric metal capsules resulting from the self-assembly of two helical, bowl-shaped tetranuclear copper(II) complexes that encapsulate different anions in the solid state, like pearls in an oyster (shown as the background). This kind of self-assembled, coordination-bonded motifs are a major topic in metallosupramolecular chemistry because of their binding capabilities and associated host–guest chemistry. However, their magnetic properties are largely unexplored, and here we provide one of the rare magnetic studies on these host–guest systems. For more details on the combined structural and magnetic investigations of this cla…
