Synthesis and characterisation of some metal complexes of hybrid phosphorus-nitrogenligands: the crystal structure of 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethane cobalt(II) chloride

Some iron(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes of the hybrid ligand 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethane (dppe) and diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine (dppp) have been synthesised and characterised. Analyses suggest tetrahedral structures in which the metal atoms are bonded to two chlorine atoms and to both phosphorus and nitrogen atoms for 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethane on one hand and on the other hand, bonding is through the nitrogen atoms of two molecules of diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine, which acts as a monodentate ligand. The crystal structure of 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethane cobalt(II) chloride shows a pseudo-tetrahedral structure in which the aminophosphine is bonded to the cobalt centre through both the phosphorus and nitrogen atoms, forming a 6-membered ring. KEY WORDS: Aminophosphines, Metal complexes, Cobalt(II) complex, Crystal structure  Bull.

Synthesis, characterisation and crystal structure of a three-dimensional network of an h-bonded Ni (II) Hexametylenetetramine complex

A three-dimensional network of H-bonding nickel (II) hexamethylenetetramine complex has been synthesized and characterised and its structure determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies which show that [Ni(H2O)6](HMTA)2Cl32.4H2O crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system with space group PĪ, a = 9.2955(4), b = 9.3187(2), c = 9.3996 Ǻ, α = 119.4160(10), β = 94.4940(10), ɣ = 100.8680(10)º, V =682.47(4) Å3 and z = 1. The nickel atoms are each bonded to six aquo ligands giving an octahedral geometry. The ligand hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) and chloride ions are bonded to water molecules through hydrogen bonding. Thermal studies show a decomposition pattern corresponding to the loss of the coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules, chloride ions and HMTA ligand in the form of a mixture of gases

Synthesis, characterisation and crystal structure of a cobalt(II)-hexamethylenetetramine coordination polymer

6 páginas, 2 figuras, 3 tablas.A novel one-dimensional zigzag coordination polymer, dinitrodiaqua-bis(hexamethylenetetramine)cobalt(II) was synthesised and characterised, and the structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound has a chain structure with each cobalt atom covalently bonded to two nitrate ions, two water molecules and two HMTA molecules, giving a slightly distorted octahedral geometry about the cobalt atom. Each HMTA ligand uses two of its N atoms to bond to two cobalt atoms giving an approximately bent Co–HMTA–Co configuration. Each chain is hydrogen bonded through OH···N and OH···O interactions with neighbouring chains leading to an overall polymer structure. Thermal studies show significant mass loss corresponding to the loss of the coordinated water molecules and the decomposition of both the nitrate ions and the HMTA.Peer reviewe
