COPPER AND BISMUTH COMPLEXES CONTAINING DIPYRIDYL GEM-DIOLATO LIGANDS - BI-2(III)(2-PY)(2)CO(OH)](2)(O2CCF3)(4)(THF)(2), CU-II[(2-PY)(2)CO(OH)](2)(HO2CCH3)(2), AND CU-4(II)[(2-PY)(2)CO(OH)(2)(O2CCH3)(6)(H2O)(2), A FERROMAGNETICALLY COUPLED TETRANUCLE

摘要

The reactions of the singly deprotonated di-2-pyridylmethanediol ligand (dpmdH(-)) with copper(II) and bismuth(III) have been investigated. A new dinuclear bismuth(III) complex Bi-2(dpmdH)(2)(O2CCF3)(4)(THF)(2), 1, has been obtained by the reaction of BiPh(3) with di-2-pyridyl ketone in the presence of HO2CCF3 in tetrahydrofuran (THF). The reaction of Cu(OCH3)(2) with di-2-pyridyl ketone, H2O, and acetic acid in a 1:2:2:2 ratio yielded a mononuclear complex Cu[(2-Py)(2)CO(OH)](2)(HO2CCH3)(2), 2, while the reaction of Cu(OAC)(2)(H2O) with di-2-pyridyl ketone and acetic acid in a 2:1:1 ratio yielded a tetranuclear complex Cu-4[(2-Py)(2)CO(OH)](2)(O2CCH3)(6)(H2O)(2), 3 The structures of these complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Three different bonding modes of the dpmdH(-) ligand were observed in compounds 1-3. In 2, the dpmdH(-) ligand functions as a tridentate chelate to the copper center and forms a hydrogen bond between the OH group and the noncoordinating HO2CCH3 molecule. In 1 and 3, the dpmdH(-) ligand functions as a bridging ligand to two metal centers through the oxygen atom. The two pyridyl groups of the dpmdH(-) ligand are bound to one bismuth(III) center in 1, while in 3 they are bound two copper(II) centers, respectively. Compound 3 has an unusual one dimensional hydrogen bonded extended structure. The intramolecular magnetic interaction in 3 has been found to be dominated by ferromagnetism.
