Synthesis and Characterization of Yttrium(III), Lanthanum(III), and Holmium(III) Complexes with a Heptadentate Schiff Base Ligand
摘要:
Yttrium(III), lanthanum(III), and holmium(III) complexes with tris-(salicylideneamino)triethylenetetramine have been synthesized and characterized by elemental and spectral analyses as well as x-ray crystal diffraction. The FAB and TOF (time-of-flight) mass spectra reveal that the ligand acts as a heptadentate and that the metal versus ligand stoichiometry is 2: 2. The structure of the lanthanum(III) complex has been determined by x-ray single crystal diffraction. The lanthanum(III) ion is coordinated through the four nitrogen and the four oxygen atoms of the two ligands to form an eight-coordinate configuration. The two lanthanum(III) ions are bridged by the two phenolate oxygen atoms in the complex. The structure is similar to that of the ligand containing p-bromo substituents. The proton NMR spectra also show that the lanthanum(III) complex is a dimer.
