Abstract top

In the structure of the title compound, {[Sm(C6H4NO2)2(H2O)4]Cl}n, the unique SmIII atom lies on a crystallographic twofold axis and is eight-coordinated by four O atoms from four isonicotinate ligands and four water molecules in a slightly distorted square-antiprismatic coodination environment. The SmIII atoms are bridged by two carboxylate groups of two isonicotinate ligands, forming an extended chain along the c-axis direction. These chains are cross-linked through hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework, with channels which accommodate the chloride anions.

Comment top

Much attention has been devoted to the research on lanthanide metal polynuclear compounds because of their magnetic and luminescent properties. Most of these types of compounds were synthesized by the reaction of rare-earth metal ions with bi- or multi-dentate ligands such as nicotinic acid (Starynowicz, 1993; Starynowicz, 1991; Kay et al., 1972; Ma et al., 1996), isonicotinic acid (Ma et al., 1999; Zeng et al., 2000) and isonicotinic acid N-oxide (Mao et al., 1998). In the course of our research in this area, our extended group has reported several such compounds with different bridging ligands (Zhang et al., 1999; Cui et al., 1999; Cai et al., 2003). Herein, we report the synthesis and crystal structure of a new samarium complex with isonicotinic ligand namely {[Sm(C6H4NO2)2(H2O)4]Cl}n.

The structure of the title compound, contains an extended [Sm(C6H4NO2)2(H2O)4]+ cationic chains and Cl- anions. The SmIII ion is eight-coordinated by four O atoms belonging to four different isonicotinic ligands (Sm—O, average 2.363 (2) Å) and four water molecules (Sm—O, average 2.489 (2) Å) (Fig. 1). The coordination geometry of the SmIII cation is best described in terms of its position at the center of a slightly distorted square antiprism. One of the square faces is comprised by O1, O1A, O2W and O2WA atoms with a mean deviation of 0.272 Å and the other one is defined by atoms O2, O2A, O1W and O1WA atoms with a mean deviation of 0.506 Å. The Sm atoms are bridged each other by two syn-syn µ-O,O'-carboxylate groups of isonicotinic ligands to form an extended chain along the c axis. This geometry is similar to that found in [{Eu(L)2(H2O)4}]n.nH2O (L = isonicotinic acid N-oxide) (Mao et al., 1998) and [La(C6H4NO2)2(H2O)4](NO3) (Cai et al., 2003), but differs from those found in Ln(isonicotinate)3(H2O)2 (Ln = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb) (Ma et al., 1999) in which the LnIII atoms are bridged by four syn-syn µ-O,O'-carboxylate groups of isonicotinic ligands (Ln = Ce, Pr, Nd) or coordinated by both two syn-syn µ-O,O'-carboxySmte groups and chelating carboxylate groups of isonicotinic ligands (Ln = Sm, Eu, Tb). To the best of our knowledge, the arrangement in present complex is rare in the lanthanide analogs.

The inter-chain hydrogen bonds, which are created by the uncoordinated nitrogen atoms of isonicotinic ligands and coordinated water molecules between neighboring chains link the cationic chains into a three-dimensional network with channels along the c axis in which the chloride anions are located, as shown in Fig. 2. The other intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed by the chloride anions and coordinated water molecules (see hydrogen bond geometry table).

Experimental top

The title complex was prepared by mixing a 1:1 molar ratio of SmCl3.6(H2O) (37 mg, 0.1 mmol) and C5H4NCOOH (12 mg, 0.1 mmol) in 10 ml mixed solvent of H2O/EtOH (v:v = 1:1). The pH value of the solution was adjusted to 5.8 with NH3. H2O. The reaction mixture was filtered and colorless single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of the solvent.

Refinement top

Water H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined as riding in their as-found positions, with Uiso(H) =1.5Ueq(O). H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed in calclulated positions with C—H = 0.93Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).
