One-dimensional and two-dimensional coordination polymers constructed from copper(II) nodes and polycarboxylato spacers: Synthesis, crystal structures and magnetic properties
摘要:
Four new coordination polymers were obtained by employing polycarboxylato spacers and cationic copper(II) complexes as nodes: 2(infinity)[Cu-3(trim)(2)(NH3)(6)(H2O)(3)] (1); 1(infinity)[Cu(tmen)(dhtp)] (2), 1(infinity)[Cu(tmen)(hitp)(H2O)] (3), 1[Cu(tmen)(nitp)] (4). (H(3)trim = trimesic acid, H(2)dhtp = 2,5-dihydroxy-terephthalic acid; H(2)hitp = 5-hydroxy-isophthalic acid, H(2)nitp = 5-nitro-isophthalic acid; tmen = N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-ethylenediamine). The crystal structures of the four compounds have been solved. Compound 1 consists of 2D coordination polymers with heart-shaped meshes, while compounds 2-4 contain infinite zigzag chains. The role of the hydrogen bond interactions in sustaining the supramolecular solid-state architectures in compounds 1 and 3 is discussed. The cryomagnetic investigation of compounds 1, 2, and 4 reveals antiferromagnetic interactions between the copper ions. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Binding Properties of Solvatochromic Indicators [Cu(X)(acac)(tmen)] (X = PF6− and BF4−, acac− = Acetylacetonate, tmen = N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethylethylenediamine) in Solution and the Solid State
摘要:
The solvatochromic indicator [Cu(acac)(tmen)(H2O)] center dot PF6 (1 center dot H2O) has been synthesized and crystallographically characterized. 1 center dot H2O binds an H2O molecule at the Cu(II) axial site, while the PF6- anion is coordination free. The binding properties of [Cu(PF6)(acac)(tmen)] (1) and [Cu(BF4)(acac)(tmen)] (2) have been investigated in solution and the solid state. The donor number of the PF6- anion (DNPF6) was determined from the UV-vis spectra of 1 in 1,2-dichloroethane. The value of DNPF6 of the PF6- anion is slightly larger than that of the tetraphenylborate anion (BPh4-), which is known as a noncoordinating anion. In the solid state, 1 and 2 reversibly bind and release H2O molecules at the Cu(II) axial sites. The coordinated H2O molecules in 2 are more easily removed than those in 1 because of the strong Lewis basicity of the BF4- anion compared to the PF6- ion. The lower melting point of 1 versus 2 is attributed to the loose binding of the PF6- anions to the Cu(II) centers, which induces the dynamic nature of the crystal.
