The V-shaped semi-rigid di-4-pyridyl sulfone-N,N′-dioxide ligand and its silver(I), manganese(II) and zinc(II) complexes: Anion tuning and supramolecular assembly
摘要:
A series of silver(I) complexes bearing the V-shaped di-4-pyridyl sulfone-N,N'-dioxide ligand (abbreviated as L), namely [Ag(L)(NO3)(H2O)]alpha (1), [Ag(L)(CF3SO3)]alpha (2), [Ag(L)(CF3CO2)]alpha, (3), [Ag(L)(C2F5CO2)]alpha (4) and {[Ag(L)](CLO4)}alpha (5), and the manganese(II) complex [Mn(L)(2)(H2O)(4)](ClO4)(2) (6) and the zinc(II) complex [Zn(L)(2)(H2O)(4)](ClO)(2) (7) of L have been synthesized and characterized. Under the tuning effect of anions with different coordination capacities and steric bulk, the semi-rigid ligand L exhibits versatile mu(2)-, mu(3)- and mu(4)-bridging modes with the N-oxide and/or sulfonyl O atoms functioning as bonding sites to form a coordination chain structure in complex 1, isostructural nets in 2-4, and a three-dimensional framework in 5. The isostructural mononuclear complexes 6 and 7 exhibit the eta(1)-ON-OXIDE, bonding mode of L. Unusual lone-pair aromatic contacts and anion-pi interactions result in supramolecular aggregations of complexes 1-7. The FT-IR spectra and luminescent properties of these complexes have been observed and discussed. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
