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…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new cyanide-bridged iron(III)–nickel(II) ferromagnetic chain
2008
Abstract The reaction of the iron(III) unit fac-[Fe{HB(pz)3}(CN)3]− [ HB ( pz ) 3 - = hydrotris ( 1 - pyrazolyl ) borate ] as the lithium salt (1) with the nickel(II) complex mer-[Ni(dpt)(H2O)3](ClO4)2 [dpt = dipropylenetriamine] in water affords the heterometallic compound of formula {[FeIII{HB(pz)3}(CN)3]2[NiII(dpt)]}n · 3nH2O (2). The structure of 2 has been determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals and their magnetic properties have been investigated in the temperature range 1.9–300 K. Compound 2 is a zigzag chain compound with regular alternating bis-monodentate [Fe(1){HB(pz)3}(CN)3]− units and [Ni(dpt)]2+ cations, the six coordination around the nickel atom being achieved by …
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…
