- ItemSynthesis and crystal structure of a one-dimensional chain-like strontium(II) coordination polymer built of N-methyldiethanolamine and isobutyrate ligands(Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2021) Seiss, Maximilian; Schmitz, Sebastian; Börner, Martin; Monakhov, Kirill Yu.The one-dimensional coordination polymer (I) [Sr(ib)2 (H2mda)]n (Hib = isobutyric acid, C4H8O2, and H2mda = N-methyldiethanolamine, C5H13NO2), namely, catena-poly[[(N-methyldiethanolamine-k3O, N, O')strontium(II)]-di-μ2- isobutyrato-K3O, O':O;K3O:O, O'], was prepared by the one-pot aerobic reaction of [Zr6O4 (OH)4 (ib)12 (H2O)].3Hib with Sr(NO3)2 and H2mda in the presence of MnCl2 and Et3N in acetonitrile. The use of MnCl2 is key to the isolation of I as high-quality colorless crystals in good yield. The molecular solid-state structure of I was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound I crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c and shows a one-dimensional polymeric chain structure. Each monomeric unit of this coordination polymer consists of a central SrII ion in the NO8 coordination environment of two deprotonated ib- ligands and one fully protonated H2mda ligand. The C and O atoms of the H2mda ligand were refined as disordered over two sets of sites with site occupancies of 0.619 (3) and 0.381 (3). Compound I shows thermal stability up to 130°C in air. © 2021 International Union of Crystallography. All rights reserved.
- ItemDeposition of exchange-coupled dinickel complexes on gold substrates utilizing ambidentate mercapto-carboxylato ligands(Frankfurt, M. : Beilstein-Institut zur Förderung der Chemischen Wissenschaften, 2017) Börner, Martin; Blömer, Laura; Kischel, Marcus; Richter, Peter; Salvan, Georgeta; Zahn, Dietrich R. T.; Siles, Pablo F.; Fuentes, Maria E. N.; Bufon, Carlos C. B.; Grimm, Daniel; Schmidt, Oliver G.; Breite, Daniel; Abel, Bernd; Kersting, BertholdThe chemisorption of magnetically bistable transition metal complexes on planar surfaces has recently attracted increased scientific interest due to its potential application in various fields, including molecular spintronics. In this work, the synthesis of mixed-ligand complexes of the type [NiII2L(L’)](ClO4), where L represents a 24-membered macrocyclic hexaazadithiophenolate ligand and L’ is a ω-mercapto-carboxylato ligand (L’ = HS(CH2)5CO2− (6), HS(CH2)10CO2− (7), or HS(C6H4)2CO2− (8)), and their ability to adsorb on gold surfaces is reported. Besides elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESIMS), UV–vis spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography (for 6 and 7), the compounds were also studied by temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements (for 7 and 8) and (broken symmetry) density functional theory (DFT) calculations. An S = 2 ground state is demonstrated by temperature-dependent susceptibility and magnetization measurements, achieved by ferromagnetic coupling between the spins of the Ni(II) ions in 7 (J = +22.3 cm−1) and 8 (J = +20.8 cm−1; H = −2JS1S2). The reactivity of complexes 6–8 is reminiscent of that of pure thiolato ligands, which readily chemisorb on Au surfaces as verified by contact angle, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements. The large [Ni2L] tail groups, however, prevent the packing and self-assembly of the hydrocarbon chains. The smaller film thickness of 7 is attributed to the specific coordination mode of the coligand. Results of preliminary transport measurements utilizing rolled-up devices are also reported.
- ItemGreen-Emissive Zn2+ Complex Supported by a Macrocyclic Schiff-Base/Calix[4]arene-Ligand: Crystallographic and Spectroscopic Characterization(Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2021) Ullmann, Steve; Börner, Martin; Kahnt, Axel; Abel, Bernd; Kersting, BertholdThe macrocyclic calix[4]arene ligand H2L comprises two non-fluorescent 2,6-bis-(iminomethyl)phenolate chromophores, which show a chelation-enhanced fluorescence enhancement upon Zn2+ ion complexation. Macrocyclic [ZnL] complexes aggregate in the absence of external coligands via intermolecular Zn−N bonds to give dimeric [ZnL]2 structures comprising two five-coordinated Zn2+ ions. The absorption and emission wavelengths are bathochromically shifted upon going from the liquid (λmax,abs (CH2Cl2)=404 nm, λmax,em (CH2Cl2)=484 nm) to the solid state (λmax,abs=424 nm (4 wt%, BaSO4 pellet), λmax,em=524 nm (neat solid)). Insights into the electronic nature of the UV-vis transitions were obtained with time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations for a truncated model complex.
