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

2007

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…

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

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…

The new cyano complexes of formulas PPh4[FeIII(bipy)(CN)4]·H2O (1), [{FeIII(bipy)(CN)4}2MII(H2O)4]·4H2O with M = Mn (2) and Zn (3), and [{FeIII(bipy)(CN)4}2ZnII]·2H2O (4) [bipy = 2,2‘-bipyridine and PPh4 = tetraphenylphosphonium cation] have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The structure of complex 1 is made up of mononuclear [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]- anions, tetraphenyphosphonium cations, and water molecules of crystallization. The iron(III) is hexacoordinated with two nitrogen atoms of a chelating bipy and four carbon atoms of four terminal cyanide groups, building a distorted octahedron around the metal atom. The structure of complexes 2 and 3 consists of neutral centrosymmetric […

The preparation, X-ray crystallography and magnetic study of compounds PPh4[Cr(ampy)(CN)4]·H2O (1), PPh4[Cr(phen)(CN)4]·H2O·CH3OH (2), {[Cr(ampy)(CN)4]2Mn(H2O)2}·6H2O (3) and {[Cr(phen)(CN)4]2Mn(H2O)2}·4H2O (4), with PPh4+ = tetraphenylphosphonium cation, ampy = 2-aminomethylpyridine and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, are reported here. 1 and 2 are mononuclear complexes whereas 3 and 4 are 4,2-ribbon-like bimetallic chains. The magnetic properties of 1–4 were investigated in the temperature range 1.9–300 K. A quasi Curie law behaviour for a magnetically isolated spin quartet is observed for 1 and 2. Compounds 3 and 4 are ferrimagnetic CrIII2MnII chains, which exhibit a metamagnetic behaviour, …

Ligand design for multidimensional magnetic materials: a metallosupramolecular perspective.

2008

The aim and scope of this review is to show the general validity of the ‘complex-as-ligand’ approach for the rational design of metallosupramolecular assemblies of increasing structural and magnetic complexity. This is illustrated herein on the basis of our recent studies on oxamato complexes with transition metal ions looking for the limits of the research avenue opened by Kahn's pioneering research twenty years ago. The use as building blocks of mono-, di- and trinuclear metal complexes with a novel family of aromatic polyoxamato ligands allowed us to move further in the coordination chemistry-based approach to high-nuclearity coordination compounds and high-dimensionality coordination po…

Charge transfer salts containing a paramagnetic cyano-complex and iodine substituted organic donor involving –I(donor)···N(anion)-interactions

Abstract The preparation, crystal structures, EHT band calculation and optical properties of two new charge transfer salts, namely (DIET)2[Fe(bpca)(CN)3] (1) and (DIEDO)2[Fe(bpca)(CN)3] (2), where bpca = bis(2-pyridylcarbonyl)amide anion, DIET = diiodoethylenedithotetrathiavalene and DIEDO = diiodoethylenedioxotetrathiavalene are reported. The magnetic properties of 2 and those of the low-spin iron(III) precursor of formula (PPh4)[Fe(bpca)(CN)3]·H2O (3) were also investigated in the temperature range 1.9–205 K.

Abstract The monouclear complex PPh4[Cr(bipy)(ox)2]·H2O (1) and the heterodinuclear compounds [Cu(bpca)(H2O)Cr(bipy)(ox)2]·2.5H2O (2) and [Cu(bpca)(H2O)Cr(phen)(ox)2]·2H2O (3) [PPh4+=tetraphenylphosphonium cation, bpca=bis(2-pyridylcarbonyl)amide anion, ox=oxalate dianion, bipy=2,2′-bipyridine and phen=1,10-phenanthroline] have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
