Synthesis, crystal structures, and characterization of three mercury(II) halides inorganic–organic hybrid compounds with 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane ligand
摘要:
Three new hybrid mercury halides compounds with 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octan (DABCO) ligand, namely, Hg-2(mu(2)-I)(2)I-3(H-DABCO) (1), {[Hg-5(mu(2)-I)(6)I-4(mu(2)-DABCO)(2)][Hg2I4(mu(2)-DABCO)]}(n) (2) and {[Hg-2(mu(2)-Br)(2)Br-2(mu(2)-DABCO)]center dot 2(HgBr2)}(n) (3), have been synthesized. Compound 1 crystallizes in a P2(1) chiral space group and is a discrete dinuclear mercury(II) compound with inorganic Hg-2(mu(2)-I)(2)I-3 unit. Compound 2 consists of 1D neutral [Hg-5(mu(2)-I)(6)I-4(mu(2)-DABCO)(2)](n) broad polymeric array containing uncommon inorganic decanuclear [Hg-10(mu(2)-I)(12)I-8](n) clusters, and neutral guest Hg-2(mu(2)-DABCO)I-4 molecules. Compound 3 is composed of a neutral [Hg-2(mu(2)-Br)(2)Br-2(mu(2)-DABCO)](n) polymeric chain and guest inorganic HgBr2 molecules. In all cases, the halide ions participate in the framework connectivity as bridging ligands. A variety of coordination geometries displayed by the metal sites such as linear, trigonal and tetrahedral are observed in these compounds. Of the three compounds, only compound 3 displays photoluminescence with a emission maximum at 528 nm upon excitation at 468 nm. In addition, these compounds are characterized by IR, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. Crown Copyright (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
