Networks based on hydrogen-bonds containing phosphorus anions and tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate nickel(II) moieties

Abstract Five structural kinds of nickel hydrogen-bonded networks containing hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate ligands (Tp∗) have been elucidated by X-ray diffraction, [Tp∗Ni(OH2)3][(p-NO2C6H4O)2PO2] (4), [Tp∗Ni(OH2)3][Me2PO2]·Me2P(O)OH (5), [Tp∗Ni(OH2)3][(nBuO)2PO2]·0.5H2O (6), [(Hpz)Tp∗Ni(OH2)2][(Ph)PO2OH] (7) and [Tp∗Ni(OH2)2(Me2PO2)] (8). The most relevant supramolecular feature of complexes 4–8 is all of them form coordination networks based on hydrogen bonds between water molecules and phosphate, phosphonate or phosphinate anions. These hydrogen bonds are formed within the monomer units in addition to connect monomers along the chains. Their behaviors in solution were investigate…

Hydrogen Bonding and Anion Binding in Structures of Tris(pyrazolyl)boratenickel(II) and Phosphate Esters

This paper presents the syntheses, crystal structures and spectroscopic properties of a series of nickel(II) complexes containing hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate and phosphate esters: [Tp*Ni(Hpz*)2(L)][(RO)2PO2] [R = Et, Bu; L = H2O (1), (BuO)2P(O)OH (2)] and [Tp*Ni(Hpz*)(H2O)2][(EtO)2PO2] (5) {Tp* = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate, Hpz* = 3,5-dimethylpyrazole}. The complexes [Ni(Tp*)2] (3) and [(Tp*Ni)2(μ-pz*)(μ-OH)](4) were also prepared and fully characterized. X-ray crystallographic studies of 1 and 2 reveal that the pyrazole moieties are hydrogen bonded to the guest phosphate ester anion. In complex 5, the phosphate anion is hydrogen-bonded by two O–H groups of the water …
