摘要:
Four new nickel(II) phthalate compounds. mononuclear complexes [Ni(Im)](6)(Pht) H(2)O (1), [Ni(Pht)(Im)(3)(H(2)O)(2)] H(2)O (2) and [Ni(Pht)(2-MeIm)(3)(H(2)O)(3)] H(2)O (3), and coordination polymer [Ni(Pht)(4-MeIm)(2)(H(2)O)](n) (4) (where Pht = dianion of o-phthalic acid, Im = imidazole, 2-MeIm = 2-methylimidazole, 4-MeIm = 4-methylimidazole) have been synthesized The complexes 1-4 were characterised by elemental analysis, IR data, thermogravimetric, and X-ray diffraction analyses. X-ray analysis shows that the asymmetric unit of 1 consists of [Ni(Im)](6)(2+) cation, Pht(2-) anion and solvate H(2)O molecule. The phthalate dianion does not take part in coordination to metal ion. The cations, anions and water molecules are linked via N-H O and O-H O interactions forming 2D hydrogen-bonded networks. The structures of 2 and 3 are similar to other mononuclear Ni(II) phthalate complexes where Pht(2-) anions act as monodentate ligands and uncoordinated carboxylate oxygen atoms participate in the formation of hydrogen bonded double-chains The structure of 4 consists of [Ni(4-MeIM)(2)(H(2)O)] building units connected by phthalate ions to form helical chains. The complexes 1-4 were tested for their ability to increase the biosynthesis of enzymes. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
