A comparison of the coordination preferences of Zn, Co, and Cd(II) with the heteroscorpionate ligand (2-hydroxy-3-t-butyl-methylphenyl)bis (3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)methane

Reaction of the Zn, Cd, or Co nitrate salts with the deprotonated ligand (2-hydroxy-3-t-butyl-methylphenyl)bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)methane (L1O^–) in methanol produced the following complexes: [(L1OH)Zn(NO₃)₂] in two isomorphs, a = 40.983(8) Å, b = 9.571(2) Å, c = 15.667(8) Å, = 90, = 106.38(1), = 90, C2/c, and a = 13.027(3) Å, b = 14.781(4) Å, c = 16.107(3) Å, = 90, = 105.30(1), = 90, P2₁/n; [(L1OH)Cd(pz)(NO₃)₂] a = 14.7476(2) Å, b = 13.5411(2) Å, c = 16.7223(2) Å, = 90, = 110.3840(10), = 90, P2₁/c; and [(L1O)Co(pz)(NO₃)] a = 11.4240(2) Å, b = 13.4498(2) Å, c = 13.8056(2) Å, = 105.2080(10), = 105.8130(10), = 112.7470(10), P . The Zn adopts a pseudotetrahedral four-coordinate geometry where the potentially tridentate ligand is actually bidentate with a protonated and uncoordinated phenoxy arm. The Co complex is pseudooctahedral six-coordinate where the phenoxy arm is deprotonated and coordinated. Finally the Cd complex is seven-coordinate but the metal is not coordinated through the phenoxy group that is again protonated.

Reaction of 2-amino-5-methylpyridine with zinc chloride and HCl in aqueous solution yields bis(2-amino-5-methylpyridinium) tetrachlorozincate. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with minimal tetrahedral distortion of the ZnCl₄ ^2– ion at both 298 and 150 K; at 298 K, a = 8.090(2) Å, b = 14.795(6) Å, c = 15.850(4) Å, = 101.93 (2); at 150 K, a = 8.0986(2) Å, b = 14.7190(5) Å, c = 15.7684(7) Å, = 102.862(2).

X-ray crystal structure of the 1∶2∶2 pentaethyleneglycol dimethyl ether(pentaglyme)∶dichloropicric acid∶water complex. Infrared studies of the 1∶2∶2 complexes with tri-, tetra-, and pentaglyme

The 122 pentaglymedichloropicric acidwater adduct crystallizes in two polymorphic forms. Polymorph I is triclinic, space groupP¯1; at –96°Ca=11.629(6),b=12.566(8),c=12.877(16)Å,=89.19(8),=83.76(8), =85.95(5)°,D _x =1.599 g cm^–3,V=1866(5)ų,Z=2. Refinement on 7729 observed reflections yielded a finalR value of 0.045. Polymorph II is orthorhombic, space groupP2₁2₁2₁; at –87°Ca=13.631(7),b=26.441(8),c=5.182(6)Å,D _x =1.597(3) g cm^–3,V=1868(3)ų,Z=2. Refinement of 1610 observed reflections yielded a finalR of 0.071 for a disordered structure. The hydrogen bonding pattern in I is similar to that found in the analogous 18-crown-6 complex. Two pairs of alternate O atoms in the polyether are hydrogen bonded to two water molecules, each of which is hydrogen bonded to the phenol O atom of a neutral dichloropicric acid molecule. The bond distances and torsion angles in the S shaped polyether are similar to those in the cyclic polyether with C-C-O-C angles near 180° and O-C-C-O near±60°. The complex in II resembles that in I in overall shape and dimensions, also having normal bond distances and angles. The nonhydrogen atoms in water and the dichloropicric acid can be located unambiguously. However, the polyether molecule is disordered, and a satisfactory model for the disorder could not be found. Comparison of the IR spectra of the 122 tri-, tetra-, and pentaglymedichloropicric acidwater complexes suggests that the hydrogen-bonding in the tetraglyme complex is weaker than in the pentaglyme complex, but that in the triglyme complex is as strong or stronger.Deceased, March, 1993.

Crystals are triclinic, space groupP¯1 (No. 2) withZ=2 in a unit cell of dimensionsa=8.874(2) Å,b=9.549(5) Å,c=26.025(7) Å,=97.22(3)°,=95.06(2)°, and=98.75(3)°. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier methods and refined by full-matrix least squares toR=0.062 for 2910 unique diffractometer data. The metal atom of the anion has an approximate square-planar configuration and the nitrogen atom of the cation an approximate tetrahedral configuration. The anions as well as the cations are well separated, the closest NiNi and NN approaches being the lattice repeat of 8.874(2) Å.
