A new self-assembled inorganic-organic hybrid layered compound containing hexarhenium cluster: [MV][{Mn(CH3OH)(2)}{Re6Se8(CN)6}]

摘要

A new layered compound, [MV][{Mn(CH3OH)(2)} {Re6Se8(CN)(6)}] (1) consists of a layer alternately knitted by hexarhenium cluster and Mn complex, and MV2+ cations (methyl viologen dication = 1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridilium dication) reside between the layers. The title compound I is the first layered framework containing cyano-hexarhenium clusters with photoactive guest molecules, MV2+. The MV2+ can be partly exchanged by H2TMB2+ (N,N,N',N'-tetramethylbenzidine dication) to form a compound [H2TMB2+](x)[MV2+](1-x) [{Mn(CH3OH)(2)} {Re6Se8(CN)(6)}] (2) showing an electronic interaction between the layered framework and [H2TMB](2+) cation.
