Abstract:
The title compound, tetrakis(mu-2,3-dimethoxybenzoato)-kappa(4)O:O';kappa(6)O,O':O'-bis[(2,2'-bipyridine-N,N')(2,3-dimethoxybenzoato-O,O')lanthanum(III)], [La(2)(2,3-DMOBA)(6)(2,2'-bpy)(2)], where 2,3-DMOBA is 2,3-dimethoxybenzoate (C(9)H(9)O(4)) and 2,2'-bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine (C(10)H(8)N(2)), is a dimer with a centre of inversion between the La atoms bridged by four carboxylate ligands. The central La atom is ennea-coordinated and has a distorted monocapped square-antiprism geometry.
