A New Heptanuclear Cobalt(II) Cluster Encapsulated in a Novel Heteropolyoxometalate Topology: Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties of [Co7(…
2004
The synthesis and the structural and magnetic characterization of a novel heptanuclear cobalt cluster encapsulated in a heteropolyoxotungstate is reported. This complex shows how it is possible to control the nuclearity of the Co clusters formed in a tungstate solution by slightly changing the synthetic conditions, and the relevance of pH in this regard. This heptanuclear complex [Co7(H2O)2(OH)2P2W25O94]16- (Co7) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (a = 12.3403(6) A, b = 22.5966(11) A, c = 23.2645(12) A, α = 68.7830(11)°, β = 83.7981(12)°, γ = 78.5423(13)°, V = 5922.4(5) A3, Z = 2) and is formed by six CoO6 octahedra from two Co3 trimers sustained by Keggin trivacant fragments held…
Mn3+ in garnets III. Absence of Jahn-Teller distorition in synthetic Mn3+-bearing garnet
1985
The crystal structure of a ternary Mn3+-bearing garnet, close to the composition Gross34 Spess26 CaMnGt40 has been refined to a weighted R-value of 0.051 for 440 unique reflections. The lattice constant is 11.867(1) A, fractional atomic parameters for oxygen are x=0.0374 (2), y=0.0470 (2), and z=0.6532 (2). Refinement of site occupancies gave 0.81 (3) Ca+0.19 (3) Mn2+ in the eight coordinated site 24c and 0.64 (2) Al+0.36 (2) Mn3+ in the octahedral site 16a. No deviation from the cubic space group Ia3d has been observed, the Mn3+-bearing YO6 octahedron is nearly regular. Thus, the presence of the 3d 4-configurated ion Mn3+ does not cause Jahn-Teller distortion in this garnet structure.
Synthesis, reactivity and structures of ruthenium carbonyl clusters with telluride and hydride ligands
2002
The reaction of [Cp* 2 Nb(Te 2 H)] ( 1 ) (Cp*=C 5 Me 5 ) with [Ru 3 (CO) 12 ] in boiling toluene gave [Ru 3 (μ 2 -H) 2 (CO) 9 (μ 3 -Te)] ( 2 ), [Ru 6 (μ 3 -H)(CO) 15 (μ 3 -Te) 3 ][Cp* 2 Nb(CO) 2 ] ( 3 ) and [Ru 5 (μ 2 -H)(CO) 14 (μ 4 -Te)][Cp* 2 Nb(CO) 2 ] ( 4 ) along with already known [Ru 4 (CO) 11 (μ 4 -Te) 2 ] ( 5 ). Complexes 2 – 4 were analytically and spectroscopically characterized and X-ray diffraction analyses of 3 and 4 were carried out. The anion of 3 is built up of a triangular hexametallic core of C 3 v symmetry, in which the central Ru 3 triangle, being bridged by a μ 3 -H ligand, is composed of three corner-linked Ru 3 Te tetrahedra. The main structural feature of the anion …
Synthesis, crystal structure, and magnetic characterization of the three-dimensional compound [Co2(cbut)(H2O) 3]n (H4cbut = 1,2,3,4- cyclobutanetetra…
2014
A novel cobalt(II) complex of formula [Co2(cbut)(H 2O)3]n (1) (H4cbut = 1,2,3,4-cyclobutanetetracarboxylic acid) has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and its crystal structure has been determined by means of synchrotron radiation and neutron powder diffraction. The crystal structure of 1 consists of layers of cobalt(II) ions extending in the bc-plane which are pillared along the crystallographic a-axis through the skeleton of the cbut 4- ligand. Three crystallographically independent cobalt(II) ions [Co(1), Co(2), and Co(3)] occur in 1. They are all six-coordinate with four carboxylate-oxygens [Co(1)-Co(3)] and two cis-[Co(1)] or trans-water molecules [Co(2) and Co(3)] buildin…
Anion ordering and defect structure in Ruddlesden-Popper strontium niobium oxynitrides
2004
The crystal structure of the n = 1 member of the Ruddlesden-Popper family (SrO)(SrNbO(2)N)(n) was refined by the Rietveld method using neutron powder diffraction data. This complex crystallizes in the I4/mmm space group with cell parameters a = 4.0506(2) and c = 12.5936(9) angstroms. The refined composition was Sr(2)NbO(3.28)N(0.72), which corresponds to a formal oxidation state for Nb of +4.72, meaning 72% Nb(V) and 28% Nb(IV). The nitrogen atoms order in the equatorial sites of the niobium octahedra according to Pauling's second crystal rule as the more charged anion occupies the site showing the larger bond strength sums. Pauling's second crystal rule is shown to be able to predict the d…
Synthesis and mössbauer studies of some aquo complexes of tin(IV) with crown ethers
1984
Abstract The preparation, characterization, and 119Sn Mossbauer spectra of a number of tin(IV) complexes with cyclic polyethers are presented. With tin(IV) chloride and methyltin(IV) trichloride, 1:1 and 2:1 metal-to-crown-ether complexes are formed, while dimethyltin(IV) dichloride forms only 2:1 complexes; in every case, two water molecules are present in the solid state structure. An octahedral coordination geometry around the tin(IV) center is proposed on the basis of Mossbauer and IR spectra.
Synthesis, spectroscopic and structural characterization of [Cu(phen)(C5O5)(H2O)]·H2O, [Ni(terpy)(C5O5)(H2O)]·H2O and [Ni(terpy)2](NO3)2·0.5H2O
2005
Abstract The new mononuclear complexes [Cu(phen)(C5O5)(H2O)]·H2O (1), [Ni(terpy)(C5O5)(H2O)]·H2O (2) and [Ni(terpy)2](NO3)2·0.5H2O (3) [phen=1,10-phenanthroline, C 5 O 5 2 − =dianion of the 4,5-dihydroxycyclopent-4-ene-1,2,3-trione and terpy=2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine] have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The copper atom of 1 has a distorted square pyramidal environment with two phen-nitrogen and two croconate-oxygen atoms building the equatorial plane and a water molecule in the apical position. The nickel atom of 2 exhibits a distorted NiN3O3 octahedral coordination, which may be described either as tetragonally compressed or as skewed trapezoidal bipyr…

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of the chiral iron(II) chain [Fe(bpym)(NCS)2]n (bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine)
1996
Abstract The iron(II) compound of formula [Fe(bpym)(NCS)2]n (bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine) has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction methods. It crystallizes in the tetragonal P41 (No. 76) and P43 space groups, a = 8.849(2), c=16.486(3) A , V=1290.9(5) A 3 , Z=4, D c =1.699 g cm −3 , M r =330.2, F(000)=664, λ( Mo K α)=0.71073 A , μ( Mo K α)=14.8 cm −1 and T=295 K. A total of 2449 reflections was collected over the range 3≤2ϑ≤55°; of these, 1657 were unique and 1321 were considered as observed (13σ(I)) and used in the structural analysis. The final R and Rw residuals were 0.027 and 0.026, respectively. The structure is made up of chiral (Δ and Λ enantiomers c…
Organotin(IV) chloride complexes with phosphocholine and dimyristoyl-L-?-phosphatidylcholine
2000
Several complexes of R n SnCl 4-n (R = Me, Ph, n = 1-3; R = nBu, n = 2, 3) with phosphocholine and dimyristoyl-L-α-phosphatidylcholine (phospholipid) have been synthesized and characterized by means of Mossbauer spectroscopy and NMR. Triorganotin chlorides form complexes of (R 3 SnCl) 2 .L stoichiometry with a trigonal bipyramidal pentacoordinate tin environment, while the others form 1:1 complexes with an octahedral hexacoordinate tin environment, with the ligands coordinating through anionic phosphodiester moieties in all cases.
