Crystal and Molecular Structure of Four Copper(II) Ethylenediaminedisuccinates, [Cu-2(RR,SS-Edds)] center dot 6H(2)O, Ba-2[Cu(RR,SS-Edds)] (ClO4)(2) center dot 8H(2)O, Ba[Cu(SS-HEdds)]ClO4 center dot 2H(2)O, and Ba-3[Cu-2(RR,SS-Edds)(2)](ClO4)(2) cen

摘要

Four Cu(II) complexes with the RR,SS-Edds(4-) and SS-HEdds(3-) anions are synthesized, and their crystal structures are studied. In the compounds [Cu-2(RR,SS-Edds)]. 6H(2)O (I) and Ba-2[Cu(RR,SSEdds)](ClO4)(2) center dot 8H(2)O (II), the ligand forms hexacoordinate chelate [Cu(Edds)](2-) complexes with the N atoms and O atoms of the propionate groups in the equatorial positions and the O atoms of the acetate groups in the axial vertices. In the compounds Ba[Cu(SS-HEdds)]ClO4 center dot 2H(2)O (III) and Ba-3[Cu-2(RR,SS-Edds)(2)](ClO4)(2) center dot 6H(2)O (IV), one of the propionate arms, the protonated arm in III and the deprotonated arm in IV, does not enter into the coordination sphere of the Cu atom. An acetate arm moves to its position in the equatorial plane, and the free axial vertex is occupied by an O atom of the perchlorate ion. In I-IV, the lengths of the equatorial Cu-N and Cu-O bonds fall in the ranges 1.970-2.014 and 1.921-1.970 angstrom, respectively. The axial Cu-O bonds with the acetate groups and ClO4- anions are elongated to 2.293-2.500 and 2.727-2.992 angstrom, respectively. In structure I, the second Cu atom acts as a counterion forming bonds with the O atoms of two water molecules and three O atoms of the Edds ligands. In II-IV, the Ba2+ cations are hydrated and bound to the 0 atoms of the anionic complexes and (except for one of the cations in IV) ClO4- anions. The coordination number of the Ba cations is nine. The structural units in I-IV are connected into layers. In I, an extended system of hydrogen bonds links the layers into a framework. In II and III, the layers are linked only by weak hydrogen bonds, one bond per structural unit. In IV, ClO4- anions are bound to the Ba and Cu atoms of neighboring layers, thus serving as bridges between the layers.
