New alkoxo-bridged mixed-valence cobalt clusters: Synthesis, crystal structures and magnetic properties
Two new Co II /Co III complexes, [{Co II Co III (mea) 3 } 2 (bpe) 3 ](ClO 4 ) 4 · 1.5CH 3 OH · 1.5H 2 O ( 1 ) and [ Co 4 II Co 3 III ( dea ) 6 ( CH 3 COO ) 3 ] ( ClO 4 ) 0.75 ( CH 3 COO ) 1.25 · 0.5 H 2 O ( 2 ) [Hmea = monoethanolamine H 2 dea = diethanolamine and bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane], have been obtained by reacting cobalt(II) perchlorate ( 1 and 2 ), Hmea ( 1 )/H 2 dea ( 2 ), bpe ( 1 ) and sodium acetate ( 2 ). The crystal structures of 1 and 2 have been solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal 1 contains “Chinese lantern”-like shaped cations, resulting by connecting two {Co II Co III (mea) 3 } moieties with three flexible bpe ligands. The coordination sphere of the …
A new ferromagnetically coupled μ-alkoxo–μ-acetato copper(II) trinuclear complex: [Cu3(H2tea)(Htea)(CH3COO)2](ClO4) (H3tea=triethanolamine)
Abstract A μ-alkoxo–μ-acetato trinuclear copper(II) complex, [Cu3(H2tea)(Htea)(CH3COO)2](ClO4) 1, has been synthesized by reacting copper(II) perchlorate, triethanolamine and sodium acetate. The unit cell contains two centrosymmetric, crystallographically independent trinuclear Cu(II) complexes and two ClO 4 - ions. The crystallographically independent trinuclear Cu(II) complexes differ mainly in some of their geometry parameters. The coordination environment of the central copper atom is square-planar, in one trinuclear entity, and elongated octahedral in the other one (in this last case, the coordination number of the central copper atom increases through the semicoordination of an oxygen…
Intramolecular versus intermolecular exchange pathways in the binuclear complex [Cu2(H2tea)2(4,4′-bipy)](ClO4)2·3H2O (H3tea=triethanolamine and 4,4′-bipy=4,4′-bipyridine)
Abstract The binuclear copper(II) complex of formula [Cu2(H2tea)2(4,4′-bipy)](ClO4)2·3H2O (1) (H3tea=triethanolamine and 4,4′-bipy=4,4′-bipyridine) has been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Its structure consists of dinuclear [Cu2(H2tea)2(4,4′-bipy)]2+ cations, uncoordinated perchlorate anions and crystallization water molecules. Each copper atom exhibits a trigonal-bipyramidal environment with the three triethanolamine-oxygen atoms building the equatorial plane, and the triethanolamine-nitrogen and one of the 4,4′-bipy nitrogen atoms defining the three-fold axis. The 4,4′-bipy molecule acts as a bismonodentate bridging ligand, the copper–copper separation across it being 11…
