Cadmium(ii) coordination polymers based on substituted malonic acid: synthesis, characterization and photoluminescence properties

2017

Four novel complexes of cadmium(II) with alkyl/aryl-substituted malonate ligands of formulae {[Cd(Memal)(H2O)]6·0.5H2O}n (1), [Cd(Etmal)(H2O)]n (2), [Cd(Butmal)(H2O)]n (3) and [Cd(Bzmal)(H2O)]n (4), (Memal = methylmalonate, Etmal = ethylmalonate, Butmal = butylmalonate and Bzmal = benzylmalonate) have been prepared and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis. Their luminescence, UV-Vis absorption properties and thermal behaviour were also investigated. Complex 1 is a three-dimensional compound where each metal centre is connected to four other ones leading to a sodalite network with the point symbol {42·64}. Each cadmium(II) ion in 1 is seven-coordinate with a water molecule and six …

2009

Abstract Reactions of nBu2SnCl(L1) (1), where L1 = acid residue of 5-[(E)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-diazenyl]quinolin-8-ol, with various substituted benzoic acids in refluxing toluene, in the presence of triethylamine, yielded dimeric mixed ligand di-n-butyltin(IV) complexes of composition [nBu2Sn(L1)(L2–6)]2 where L2 = benzene carboxylate (2), L3 = 2-[(E)-2-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-1-diazenyl]benzoate (3), L4 = 5-[(E)-2-(4-methylphenyl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoate (4), L5 = 2-{(E)-4-hydroxy-3-[(E)-4-chlorophenyliminomethyl]-phenyldiazenyl}benzoate (5) and L6 = 2-[(E)-(3-formyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-diazenyl]benzoate (6). All complexes (1–6) have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H,…

Dynamic Magnetic and Optical Insight into a High Performance Pentagonal Bipyramidal Dy(III) Single-Ion Magnet

2017

The pentagonal bipyramidal single-ion magnets (SIMs) are among the most attractive prototypes of high-performance single-molecule magnets (SMMs). Here, a fluorescence-active phosphine oxide ligand CyPh2PO (=cyclohexyl(diphenyl)phosphine oxide) was introduced into [Dy(CyPh2PO)2(H2O)5]Br3⋅2 (CyPh2PO)⋅EtOH⋅3 H2O, and combined dynamic magnetic measurement, optical characterization, ab initio calculation, and magneto-optical correlation of this high-performance pseudo-D5h DyIII SIM with large Ueff (508(2) K) and high magnetic hysteresis temperature (19 K) were performed. This work provides a deeper insight into the rational design of promising molecular magnets.

A Bis(mu-phenoxo)-Bridged Dizinc Complex with Hydrolytic Activity

2013

The dinuclear complex [Zn2(papy)2]·2CH3OH [H2papy = N- (2-hydroxybenzyl)-N-(2-picolyl)glycine] was synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of the complex reveals that both ZnII ions are pentacoordinate with distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination arrangements. The phenoxyl groups of each ligand bridge the two metal atoms, whereas each carboxylate of the ligand is terminally bound to one ZnII ion. Potentiometric studies of the ZnII:H2papy system in a methanol/water mixture show the existence of a mononuclear species at lower pH; but at a pH above 5, a dimeric species starts to dominate and transforms further into a bis(μ-phenoxo) bridged dizinc complex by deprotonation of …

Mono-organotin(IV) and tin(IV) derivatives of 2-mercaptopyridine and 2-mercaptopyrimidine: X-ray structures of methyl-tris(2-pyridinethiolato)tin(IV)…

Mono-organotin(IV) and tin(IV) derivatives of 2-mercaptopyridine (HSPy) and 2-mercaptopyrimidine (HSPym), RSnL 3 (R=Me, n-Bu, Ph; L=SPy, SPym; R=Bz=benzyl, o-CIBz, oClC 6 H 4 , p-ClC 6 H 4 , o-tolyl, p-tolyl; L=SPy), RSnCIL 2 (R=Me, n-Bu, Ph; L=SPy, SPym), RSnCI 2 L (R=Me, n-Bu; L=SPy, SPym) and SnCI 4-n L n (L=SPy, SPym; n=2,4) were obtained from RSnCI 3 or SnCI 4 and NaL or by neutralization (R=Ph,p-tolyl; L=SPy, SPym). RSnCIL 2 and RSnCI 2 L were better prepared by comproportionation of RSnCI 3 and RSnL 3 . MeSn(Spy) 3 and PhSn(SPy) 3 .1.5CHCI 3 crystals, as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, are monoclinic. In the discrete monomeric RSn(SPy) 3 units, three bidentate SPy lig…

A unique single carboxylate-bridged spin-frustrated chiral Mn(II) metallatriangle.

2010

The reaction between Hmbpymca ligand (prepared in situ from the hydrolysis of 5-methyl-4-cyano-bispyrimidine with NaOH and further neutralization with 2 M HCl) and Mn(ClO(4))(2)·4H(2)O in 1:1 molar ratio afforded the triangulo-trimanganese(II) complex [Mn(3)(bpymca)(3)(H(2)O)(6)]Cl(3)·6H(2)O 1. The chloride anions in this complex come from the HCl used in the neutralization process. The molecular structure of 1 consists of cationic molecular triangles [Mn(3)(μ-mbpymca)(3)(H(2)O)(6)](3+) with C(3) symmetry, chloride anions and crystallization water molecules, all of them involved in an extensive network of hydrogen bonds, leading to a chiral network. Within the [Mn(3)(μ-mbpymca)(3)(H(2)O)(6)…

Thermal expansion and magnetic properties of benzoquinone-bridged dinuclear rare-earth complexes.

2017

The synthesis and structural characterization of two benzoquinone-bridged dinuclear rare-earth complexes [BQ(MCl2·THF3)2] (BQ = 2,5-bisoxide-1,4-benzoquinone; M = Y (1), Dy (2)) are described. Of these reported metal complexes, the dysprosium analogue 2 is the first discrete bridged dinuclear lanthanide complex in which both metal centres reside in pentagonal bipyramidal environments. Interestingly, both complexes undergo significant thermal expansion upon heating from 120 K to 293 K as illustrated by single-crystal X-ray and powder diffraction experiments. AC magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that 2 does not show the slow relation of magnetization in zero dc field. The absent of …

A new N6 hexadentate ligand and a novel heptacoordinated N6O-type Fe(III) compounds: Synthesis, characterization and structure of [Fe(dimpyen)(OH)](A…

2011

Abstract In this contribution, we report the syntheses of a novel N6 donor set ligand, dimpyen = N1,N2-di[(1-methyl-1H-2-imidazolyl) methyl]-N1,N2-di(2-pyridilmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine. This type of ligand was designed to modulate the properties of the metal ions bound to it. The reaction with Fe(II) gives off a new heptacoordinated iron(III) complex. We study the spectroscopic (UV–Vis), magnetic and electrochemical behavior and also made the structural determination with X-ray diffraction at 134 K and a heptacoordinated N6O-type derivative of Fe(III) is reported as well. This complex crystallize as perchlorate or hexafluorophosphate and the formula of these derivatives are [Fe(dimpyen)(OH)…

Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of the one-dimensional chain compound {K[Fe(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-tricarboxylate)(H2O)2]·2H2O}∞

2002

The one-dimensional chain compound {[Fe(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-tricarboxylate)(H2O)2]}n−n was obtained from a reaction of 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-tricarboxylate with Fe(II) in water at room temperature. The high-spin Fe(II) centers adopt a pentagonal bipyramid geometry with unusual ligand binding modes. Magnetic measurements revealed weak magnetic interactions between paramagnetic centers; these were modeled with both axial and rhombic distortions.
