3-hydroxido-(
4-2-phosphonatoethanesulfonato)dierbium(III)] monohydrate]The crystal structure of the title compound, {[Er2(C2H4O6PS)(OH)3(H2O)]·H2O}n, consists of two Er3+ ions, one (C2H4O6PS)3- ion, three OH- ions, and two water molecule. The Er3+ ions form ErO8 polyhedra., which are connected by
- and
3-O atoms. Thus, inorganic Er-O-Er layers of edge- and face-sharing polyhedra are observed. Whereas most often in metal phosphonosulfonates the organic linker bridges adjacent layers, in the title compound, the (O3PC2H4SO3)3- anion is only connected to one Er-O-Er layer. Short interatomic O
O distances [2.898 (8), 2.997 (14) and 2.768 (10) Å] indicate hydrogen bonding between the layers. The noncoordinated water molecules are located between the layers.
H2O3PC2H4SO3H was synthesized as previously reported (Sonnauer & Stock, 2008b). All other reagents were of analytical grade (Aldrich and Fluka) and were used without furhter purification. For the synthesis a special high-throughput reactor system was used. 79 µl (0.016 mmol) of 0.2 M Er(CH3CO2)3.4H2O, 53.2 µl (0.032 mmol) of 0.5 M H2O3PC2H4SO3H, 23.7 µl (0.048 mmol) of 2.0 M NaOH, and 54 µl H2O were filled in a teflon reactor and heated to 160 °C for 48 h. After filtration the pink rod-shaped single crystals were isolated.
The H atoms connected to C atoms were positioned with idealized geometry and were refined isotropically with Ueq(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) of the parent atom using a riding model with C—H = 0.97 Å. The H atoms connected to O atoms could not be located from the difference Fourier map and were omitted from refinement.

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. |

Inorganic–organic hybrid materials based on metal carboxylates, sulfonates and phosphonates are intensively investigated due to their potential application i.e. in the field of gas separation, storage, as well as catalysis, or as sensor materials. We are interested in the use of organic ligands containing two or more different functional groups for the synthesis of functionalized hybrid compounds. Although a large number of metal phosphonates and metal sulfonates have been reported in the literature, compounds based on ligands containing simultaneously a phosphonic as well as a sulfonic acid group have only recently been investigated. These few studies are limited to the use of linker molecules based on rigid phosphonoarylsulfonic acids (Benedetto et al., 1997; Adani et al., 1998; Du et al., 2006a,b; Du, Li et al., 2007; Du, Prosvirin & Mao, 2007; Du, Xu et al., 2007). Our group has started a systematic investigation using the flexible linker 2-phosphonoethansulfonic acid, which has been recently reported in the literature (Sonnauer et al., 2007; Sonnauer & Stock, 2008a,b). Here we describe the crystal structure of the new rare earth phosphonatosulfonate [Er2(O3PC2H4SO3)(OH)3(H2O)]H2O, which was obtained during a high-throughput screening experiment.
The title compound consists of two crystallographic independent erbium ions, one fully deprotonated (O3PC2H4SO3)3- anion, three hydroxide ions, as well as two water molecules (one is coordinated to a erbium ion) (Fig. 1). The erbium ions are coordinated eightfold by oxygen atoms and form ErO8 polyhedra (Fig. 2), which are linked (edge- and face-sharing) to inorganic layers Er–O–Er in the ab-plane (Fig. 3). While most often in metal phosphonosulfonates the organic linker bridges adjacent layers, in [Er2(O3PC2H4SO3)(OH)3(H2O)]H2O the anion (O3PC2H4SO3)3- is only connected to one Er–O–Er layer. These layers are further linked via hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional structure (Fig. 4). The non-coordinating H2O molecules are located in between the layers.
