Synthesis, Structural, Thermal and Magnetic Characterization of a Pyrophosphato‐Bridged Cobalt(II) Complex
2008
The reaction in water of CoII sulfate heptahydrate with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and sodium pyrophosphate (Na4P2O7) in a 2:4:1 stoichiometric ratio resulted in the crystallization of a neutral dinuclear CoII complex, {[Co(phen)2]2(μ-P2O7)}·6MeOH (1), as revealed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The bridging pyrophosphato ligand between the two [Co(phen)2]2+ units in a bis(bidentate) coordination mode places the adjacent metal centers at 4.857 A distance, and its conformation gives rise to intramolecular π–π stacking interaction between adjacent phen ligands. Indeed, intermolecular π–π stacking interactions between phen ligands from adjacent dinuclear complexes create a supramo…
Synthesis, Structural, Magnetic and Thermal Characterization of {[Cu(bipy)] 2 (μ‐HP 2 O 7 )(μ‐Cl)}·H 2 O
2008
Copper(II) hydroxide reacts with 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) and sodium pyrophosphate in a 2:2:1 stoichiometric ratio under ambient conditions at pH 1.6 in water. The resulting neutral dinuclear CuII complex features a bridging set containing bridging monoprotonated pyrophosphate and a monoatomic chloro bridge (making this the first pyrophosphate bridged coordination complex containing an alternate, additional halide bridge between the metal centers). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed the complex to be {[Cu(bipy)]2(μ-HP2O7)(μ-Cl)}·H2O. The structure consists of a dimeric copper(II) system with each metal ion in a square pyramidal geometry. The asymmetric [Cu(bipy)]2+ units are br…
Synthesis, X‐ray Structure, Thermal and Magnetic Behavior of [(bipy) 2 Ni 2 (μ‐Cl) 2 Cl 2 (H 2 O) 2 ]: The First Neutral Ferromagnetically Coupled Si…

NiCl2·6H2O and 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) (1:1) were allowed to react under ambient conditions in dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of acetylacetone (Hacac). The resulting green solution was concentrated in vacuo, and a green solid was isolated by precipitation with cold acetone. X-ray quality crystals of [(bipy)2Ni2(μ-Cl)2(Cl)2(H2O)2] (1) were grown by subsequent vapor/liquid diffusion of acetonitrile into a methanolic solution for one week. The structure of 1 consists of a dimeric nickel system with each metal atom in an octahedral geometry. Both equatorial bridging and axial chlorine atoms are present in this neutral species. The nickel–nickel distance (3.441 A) is the shortest reported to …
