Di-[mu]-acetato-bis[triaquabis(thiocyanato-[kappa]N)(pyridine N-oxide-[kappa]O)neodymium(III)]

S.-G. Zhang and J.-M. Shi

Abstract top

The title binuclear complex, [Nd2([mu]-C2H3O2)2(NCS)4(C5H5NO)2(H2O)6], lies about an inversion centre at the centroid of the four-membered Nd2O2 ring, with the two acetate ions acting as bridging ligands. A monodentate pyridine N-oxide ligand, two terminal thiocyanate groups and three water molecules complete the coordination environments of each nine-coordinate NdIII atom. O-H...O, O-H...N and O-H...S hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

Acetate, thiocyanate and pyridine N-oxide or its derivatives are all known to function as bridging ligands (Kato et al., 1964; Zhang et al., 2006), and we are interested in complexes with mixed bridge ligands which led to the synthesis of the title complex (I) and we report its structure here, Fig. 1. In the binuclear structure acetate acts as a bridging ligand, whereas thiocyanate, water and pyridine N-oxide only function as terminal ligands. The Nd and bridging acetate O atoms form a four-membered ring by virtue of the crystallographic inversion center which is at the centroid of the ring. The distance between the bridged Nd(III) ions is 4.4167 (7) Å, and atoms Nd1, Nd1i, O3 and O3i are strictly coplanar (i = -x + 2, -y + 2, -z + 1). An extensive set of O—H···O, O—H···N and O—H···S hydrogen bonds (Table 1) connect the binuclear units into a three-dimensional supermolecular structure.

Experimental top

Nd(ClO4)3.6H2O (0.2891 g, 0.525 mmol), NaSCN (0.0872 g, 1.08 mmol), pyridine N-oxide (0.0502 g, 0.528 mmol) and Na(CH3COO) (0.0435 g, 0.530 mmol) were each dissolved in 5 ml of water. The solutions were then mixed together and stirred for a few minutes. Colourless transparent single crystals were obtained on allowing the solution to stand for two weeks at room temperature.

Refinement top

The H atoms from H2O were found in a difference Fourier map and fixed with d(O—H) = 0.8200–0.8502 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5eq(O). Other H atoms were placed in calculated positions, and refined as riding, with C—H = 0.93 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2eq(C) for the pyridine ring; C—H = 0.96 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5eq(C) for the methyl groups.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
