Building-block process for the synthesis of new chromium(iii) malonate complexes
We describe the crystal structures of two bimetallic compounds with the malonate and an exo-polydentate N-donor ligand {[Cu(tren)]4[Cr2(mal)4(OH)2]}(ClO4)4·8H2O (3) and [Ni(Htren)2][Cr2(mal)4(OH)2]·8H2O (4) which are prepared from the dinuclear K4[Cr2(mal)4(OH)2]·6H2O precursor (2) [tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine and H2mal = malonic acid]. Their crystal packing and supramolecular structures are analyzed in the context of the influence of the dichromium(III) [Cr2(mal)4(OH)2]4− unit, which acts as a building-block. Different supramolecular motifs built up from hydrogen bonds are discussed, and their self-assembly to yield a 3D arrangement is described. The magnetic properties of the compounds…
Generation of lanthanide coordination polymers with dicarboxylate ligands: synthesis, structure, thermal decomposition and magnetic properties of the two-dimensional triaquatris(malonato)dipraseodymium(III) dihydrate {[Pr2(C3H2O4)3(H2O)3]·2H2O}
The malonate complex of formula [Pr2(C3H2O4)3(H2O)3]·2H2O (1) was prepared and his crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction methods. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21, Z = 4, with unit cell parameters a = 7.631(2), b = 12.899(4), c = 8.923(2) A and β = 101.11(3)°. 1 is a polymer which grows in the (110) plane. The hydrogen bond stabilizes the crystal structure forming a three-dimensional network. The two non-equivalent praseodymium(III) ions have different environments. Finally, the thermal behaviour and magnetic properties were investigated.
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of the three-dimensional compound [Na2Ni(mal)2(H2O)6]n (H2mal=malonic acid)
Abstract A new three-dimensional nickel–sodium compound of formula [Na 2 Ni(mal) 2 (H 2 O) 6 ] n (H 2 mal=malonic acid) was prepared and its structure was determined by X-ray diffraction methods. Four malonate–oxygen atoms and two trans -(Ni) or cis -(Na) coordinated water molecules build distorted octahedral surroundings around the metal atoms. The malonate group exhibits bidentate (Ni) and tetrakis-monodentate (Na) coordination modes. The structure can be described as corrugated sheets of malonato-containing Ni(II) and Na(I) cations which grow in the (101) plane, each sheet being linked to the adjacent one in the [101] direction through bis(μ-aqua)disodium(I) units. Within each corrugated…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of two-dimensional malonato-bridged cobalt(ii) and nickel(ii) compounds
Two isostructural malonato-bridged complexes of formula {[M(H2O)2][M(mal)2(H2O)2]}n [M = Co(II) (1), Ni(II) (2); H2mal = malonic acid] have been synthesised and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Their structure consists of corrugated layers of trans-diaquabismalonatemetalate(II) and trans-diaquametal(II) units bridged by carboxylate–malonate groups in the anti–syn conformation. Two crystallographycally independent metal atoms occur in 1 and 2. The malonate anion acts simultaneously as a bidentate and bis-monodentate ligand. Variable-temperature (1.9–295 K) magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate the occurrence of weak antiferro- (1) and ferromagnetic (2) interactions between the cob…
