Two rare earth complexes of Ts-β-AlaH with the formula of [Ln2(H2O)4(Ts-β-AlaH)6]n·4nH2O (where Ln = Nd(1), Gd(2); Ts-β-AlaH = N-p-tolylsulfonyl-β-Alanine) have been synthesized and characterized by...Two rare earth complexes of Ts-β-AlaH with the formula of [Ln2(H2O)4(Ts-β-AlaH)6]n·4nH2O (where Ln = Nd(1), Gd(2); Ts-β-AlaH = N-p-tolylsulfonyl-β-Alanine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and X-ray diffraction. The results show that the two complexes are isostructural. They crystallize in a monoclinic system with P21/n space group. Crystal data for 1: a = 0.95149(19) nm, b = 1.9012(4) nm, c = 2.2863(5) nm, β= 100.37(3)°, Z= 4, De= 1.509 mg/cm^3, F(000) = 1880, R1= 0.0560, wR2= 0.1564 [I 〉 2σ(/)]; for 2: a = 0.9495(2) nm, b = 1.9037(4) nm, c = 2.2987(5) nm, β= 99.87(3)°, Z = 4, Dc= 1.541 mg/cm^3, F(000) = 1916, R1= 0.0515, wR2= 0.1566 [I〉2σ(I)]. The two complexes are one-dimensional chains and the coordination number of the Nd^3+ or Gd^3+ ion is nine.展开更多
The title compound, [N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-(L)-alanine]Co(III) thiocyanate (1) was obtained from the reaction of Co(OOCH3)2·H2O with the tridentate reduced Schiff base ligand, N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-(L)-alanine (L) an...The title compound, [N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-(L)-alanine]Co(III) thiocyanate (1) was obtained from the reaction of Co(OOCH3)2·H2O with the tridentate reduced Schiff base ligand, N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-(L)-alanine (L) and NH4SCN and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-visible, TGA and single- crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural and spectroscopic analyses reveal [Co(L)2)]SCN to be monomeric with Cobalt(III) adopting a pseudo-octahedral geometry, coordinating to two reduce Schiff base ligands. In the crystal lattice, the thiocyanate anion forms an intermolecular SCN···HNamine hydrogen bond, while adjacent monomers are linked by intermolecular Ocarboxyl···HNamine···H-bonds to form a supramolecular network. This work is therefore undertaken in an attempt to construct coordination framework structures of varying properties using the mixed-ligand strategy involving reduced Schiff bases and the thiocyanate ion.展开更多
