Cs3UP2S8, a Coordination Polymer Containing the Unprecedented [U=S]2+Sulfidouranium(2+) Moiety
2013
Although terminal chalcogeno ligands are well known for the group 5 and 6 transition metals, they are highly unusual for the oxophilic group 4 metals and unknown so far for the lanthanides or actinides. Cs3UP2S8, is the first actinide compound containing a terminal M=S group. It was synthesized by reacting uranium metal, Cs2S, S, and P2S5 in a 4:1:8:3 ratio at 700 °C in an eutectic LiCl/CsCl mixture. The crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Cs3UP2S8 crystallizes in the rhombohedral space group R [a = 15.5217(8) A; c = 35.132(2) A, V = 8305.0(8) A3, Z = 18]. The crystal structure is based on a tetrahedral network type, wherein the uranium atoms are…
New 3d–4f supramolecular systems constructed by [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]− and partially blocked lanthanide cations
2009
Abstract The reaction of acetonitrile (1–5) and mixed acetonitrile/water 1:1 (6–9) solutions containing the cyanide-bearing [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]− building block (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) and the partially blocked [Ln(bpym)]3+ cation (Ln = lanthanide trivalent cation and bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine) has afforded two new families of 3d–4f supramolecular assemblies of formula [Ln(bpym)(NO3)2(H2O)3][Fe(bipy)(CN)4] · H2O · CH3CN [Ln = Sm (1), Gd (2), Tb (3), Dy (4) and Ho (5)] and [Ln(bpym)(NO3)2(H2O)4][Fe(bipy)(CN)4] [Ln = Pr (6), Nd (7), Sm (8), Gd (9)]. They crystallize in the P21/c (1–5) and P2/c (6–9) space groups and their structures are made up of [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]− anions (1–9) and [Ln(bpym)(NO3)2(…
[Fe(phen)(CN)4]−: a suitable metalloligand unit to build 3d–4f heterobimetallic complexes with mixed bpym-cyano bridges (phen = 1,10-phenantroline, b…
2010
The synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new series of mixed 3d–4f complexes with the formula [{FeIII(phen)(CN)3(μ-CN)}4Ln2III(NO3)2(H2O)6(μ-bpym)]·nH2O [Ln = Eu (1), Gd (2), Dy (3) and Ho (4); n = 8 (1, 3 and 4) and 11 (2); phen = 1,10-phenantroline; bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine] are discussed here. Compounds 1–4 are centrosymmetric hexanuclear species whose structure is made up of two cyano-bridged {Fe2IIILnIII} heterobimetallic moieties which are connected through a bis-bidentate bpym molecule between the two rare-earth centers. The values of the iron–lanthanide distance across the single cyano-bridge are Fe(1)⋯Eu(1) = 5.5587(8) and Fe(2)⋯Eu(1) = 5.4908(8) A (1), Fe(1)⋯G…

2014
Six new heterometallic cobalt(II)-lanthanide(III) complexes of formulas [Ln(bta)(H2O)2]2[Co(H2O) 6]·10H2O [Ln = Nd(III) (1) and Eu(III) (2)] and [Ln2Co(bta)2(H2O)8] n·6nH2O [Ln = Eu(III) (3), Sm(III) (4), Gd(III) (5), and Tb(III) (6)] (H4bta = 1,2,4,5-benzenetretracaboxylic acid) have been synthesized and characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 and 2 are isostructural compounds with a structure composed of anionic layers of [Ln(bta)(H2O)2]n n- sandwiching mononuclear [Co(H2O)6]2+ cations plus crystallization water molecules, which are interlinked by electrostatic forces and hydrogen bonds, leading to a supramolecular three-dimensional network. 3-6 are also isostructural compou…
Design of 3d–4f molecular squares through the [Fe{(HB(pz)3)}(CN)3]− metalloligand
2018
A new series of {FeIII2LnIII2} heterobimetallic squares of general formula [FeIII{HB(pz)3}(CN)(μ-CN)2Ln(pyim)x(NO3)2(H2O)y]2·zH2O [Ln = La (1), Gd (2), Tb (3) and Dy (4); {HB(pz)3}− = hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate and pyim = 2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine; x = 2, y = 0 (1), x = y = 1 (2–4) and z = 10 (1), 6 (2), 2.76 (3), 4 (4)] were synthesized by reacting the low-spin [FeIII{HB(pz)3}(CN)3]− complex anion with the preformed [LnIII(pyim)x(NO3)2(H2O)y]+ complex cation [formed in situ by mixing the lanthanide(III) salt and the pyim ligand]. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that 1–4 crystallize in the P triclinic space group, 2–4 being isomorphous. In all cases, the structure comprises neutra…
In-depth structural analysis of lanthanoid coordination networks based on a flexible tripodal zwitterionic isonicotinate ligand
2019
Crystallizing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has been studied using a tripodal pyridinecarboxylic acid derivative ligand and selected lanthanoid salts. The zwitterionic ligand, 1,1′,1′′-((2,4,6-trimethylbenzene-1,3,5-triyl)tris(methylene))tris(pyridin-1-ium-4-carboxylate) (TTTPC) introduced as a bromide salt, forms coordination networks in aqueous environments and under ambient conditions with neodymium bromide, trifluoromethanesulfonate (OTf) or acetate (OAc). Seven structures are elucidated in detail using single crystal X-ray crystallography. TTTPC NdBr3, TTTPC NdBr2OTf, TTTPC NdBr(OTf)2 and TTTPC Nd(OTf)3 are porous 3D networks with similar ligand–metal and ligand–anion interactions, b…

2000
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.
tert-Butyl-calix[4]arenes Substituted at the Narrow Rim with Cobalt Bis(dicarbollide)(1–) and CMPO Groups – New and Efficient Extractants for Lanthan…
2007
Calix[4]arene derivatives bearing two residues A(–) derived from cobalt bis(dicarbollide)(1–) (1) and two CMPO groups B at their narrow rim were synthesized from tBu-calix[4]arene in four steps. The first step involved the preparation of tBu-calix[4]arene diether derivatives with appropriate precursors for amino groups (mostly nitriles 3). These were O-alkylated through ring-opening reactions with the zwitterionic dioxane derivative [(8-O(CH2CH2)2O-1,2-C2B9H10)-(1′,2′-C2B9H11)-3,3′-Co]0 (10) to produce ionic nitrile derivatives 4. Reduction of the nitrile groups with BH3·SMe2 (or deprotection in the case of the corresponding phthalimido or Boc derivatives 8) led to a series of diamines 5a–f…
Novel structural phases and the properties of LaX (X = P, As) under high pressure: first-principles study
2020
The particle swarm optimization algorithm and density functional theory (DFT) are extensively performed to determine the structures, phase transition, mechanical stability, electronic structures, and thermodynamic properties of lanthanide phosphates (LaP and LaAs) in the pressure range of 0 to 100 GPa. Two novel high-pressure structures of LaP and LaAs are first reported here. It is found that LaX (X = P, As) undergo a phase transition from NaCl-type structure (Fm3m) to CsCl-type structure (P4/mmm) at 19.04 GPa and 17.22 GPa, respectively. With the elevation of the pressure, C2/m-LaP and Imma-LaAs are the most stable structures up to 70.08 GPa and 85.53 GPa, respectively. Finally, the analy…
