Monomer, dimer, tetramer and salt: Structural variations in Zn(II) complexes of 4,4′-bipyridine-N,N′-dioxide
摘要:
Complexes of Zn1(1) salts with 4,4'-bipyridine-NN'-dioxide (bpdo) have been prepared by solvathermal and solvent layering methods. Three complexes were obtained from ZnBr2: 1 is a 2D coordination polymer [Zn2Br4(bpdo)2](n), (2) a discrete trimetallic molecule [Zn3Br6(H2O)(2)(bpdo)(4)] and 3 a salt [ZnBr4][Zn(H2O)(5)(bpdo)]. Complexes 2 and 3 contain Zn-11 ions in both octahedral and tetrahedral coordination geometry. While in 2, these are covalently linked by bridging bpdo ligands forming zwitterionic trimetallic molecules, in 3 there is complete charge separation into [ZnBr4](2-) anions and [Zn(H2O)5(bpdo)](2+) cations. When Zn(NCS)(2) is used as starting material, a ID coordination polymer [Zn(H2O)(2) (bpdo)(NCS)(2)](n) is obtained. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
