In the bimetallic cyanide-bridged title complex, [Fe0.98HoRu0.02(CN)6(C3H7NO)4(H2O)3]·H2O, the HoIII ion is in a slightly distorted square-antiprismatic arrangement formed by seven O atoms from four dimethylformamide (DMF) molecules and three water molecules, and one N atom from a bridging cyanide group connected with the FeIII atom which is octahedrally coordinated by six cyanide groups. In the crystal, molecules are held together through O—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions to form a three-dimensional framework. Elemental analysis of one of the precursors and the crystal shows that there is a slight contamination of Fe by Ru. The Fe site displays, therefore, small substitutional disorder with site-occupancy factors Fe/Ru = 0.98:0.02. The two methyl groups of two dimethylformamide ligands are positionally disordered with site-occupancy factors of 0.44 (3):0.56 (3) and 0.44 (3):0.56 (3).

The title complex (1) was prepared by addition of Ho(NO3)3 (0.35 g, 1.0 mmol) solution in a solvent mix of 15 ml DMF/H2O (v: v = 1: 1) and one equivalent of anhydrous K3Fe(CN)6 (0.33 g, 1.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was filtered and yellow single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of the solvent after a week. Yield: 81%. IR spectra were recorded on a FTS-40 infrared spectrometer KBr: 3610, 3400 (broad band center), 2939, 2132, 1648, 1497, 1382, 1114, 675 cm-1.
H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 Å, and refined in a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq (C). The H atoms of the water molecules were located in a difference map and their bond lengths were set to 0.86Å and afterwards refined using a riding model with Uiso (H) = 1.5 Ueq (O).
Since the initial
gave a large positive residual density on the Fe site, we suspected a contamination of the Fe site with a heavier atom, such as Co or Ru. Indeed, an elemental analysis of the crystal gave an elemental mass ratio of Fe:Ru= 48.18:0.8230 which indicates thus trace amounts of ruthenium. The source of the problem was found to be the iron salt precursor K3Fe(CN)6, whose elemental analysis also gave trace amounts of Ru and in addition much tinier trace amounts of Co. It was decided to fix the site occupancy factors of Fe and Ru to 0.985 and 0.015, respectively, since constrained (sum fixed to 1.0) as well as free of the Fe and Ru occupancies gave much too high ocuupancies - up to 25% - for Ru. This is not logical in view of the mean Fe(Ru)—C distance which is 1.940 Å in the title compound, compared to 1.929 Å in the Cambridge Structural Database for Fe—C and 2.023 Å for Ru—C in a similar cyanide environment.Complex (I) was refined with 120 restraints, especially for modelling the disorder in the two dimethyl groups. Two alternative sites for C14 and C15 were refined to give occupancies of 0.44 (3) and 0.56 (3), respectively. A similar disorder was found for the dimethyl group C17-C18 with site occupancy factors of 0.44 (3) and 0.56 (3), respectively. Positionally disordered atoms were refined using distance restraints (DIFX, AFIX) and ADP restraints (SIMU, ISOR). The sub

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. |

In 1998 Kou et al. obtained a binuclear Sm—Fe complex, [Sm Fe(DMF)4(H2O)3].H2O (DMF = N, N-dimethylformamide), using Sm(NO3)3 with DMF acting as assistant ligand. Later, some researchers reported lighter and heavier bimetallic complex rare earth ion cyanides [LnFe(CN)6(DMF)4(H2O)3].H2O (Ln = La, Nd, Gd, Pr and Eu). It is interesting to note that the number of coordinating water molecules is found to be different in these complexes. When Ln = Sm and Pr (Kou et al., 1998, Dai et al., 2004), there are four coordinating water molecules in the complex; however when Ln = La, Ce, Nd, Gd and Eu (Kautz et al., 2000; Mullica et al., 2000, Li, Akitsu et al., 2003, and Li, Guo et al., 2003), three coordinating water molecules are found. In order to further illustrate the influence of lanthanide contraction on the composition and structure of such complexes, we synthesized a new binuclear complex [HoFe(CN)6(DMF)4(H2O)3].H2O (I), of which the crystal structure reported.
As shown in Fig. 1, the structure of (I) consists of neutral bimetallic HoFe(CN)6(DMF)4(H2O)3 complexes and solvent water molecules. The HoIII and FeIII ions are bridged by a cyanide group to form a binuclear complex. The HoIII is eight-coordinated with one N atom of the bridging cyanide ligand [Ho—N= 2.572 (0) Å], four O atoms of DMF molecules [Ho—ODMF= 2.412 (3) Å-2.460 (7) Å], with an average distance of 2.440 (5) Å, and three water molecules, for which the three Ho—Owater distances are in the range 2.479 (9) Å-2.489 (1) Å, with an average distance of 2.485 (1) Å. The coordination polyhedron can be described as a slightly distorted square-antiprism. A similar situation was found in in [Nd Fe(DMF)4(H2O)3].H2O (Li, Akitsu et al., 2003). The Ho1—N6—C6 angle is 163.4 (1)°, deviating slightly from linearity, as was the case in its analog. A three-dimensional framework is formed through O—H···N and O—H···O hydrogen bonding interactions with O···O distance of 2.660 (1)Å and average O···N separations of 2.839 (3) Å (Fig. 2).
