Abstract:
Hydrothermal reactions of manganese(II) salts with o-sulfophenylarsonic acid (o-HO(3)S-C(6)H(4)-AsO(3)H(2), H(3)L) afforded Mn(3)(L)(2)(H(2)O)(3).H(2)O (1) with a layered structure. When 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy), and 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (terpy) were used as auxiliary chelating ligands, a series of mixed-ligand manganese(II) sulfonate-arsonates with lower dimensional structures, namely, [Mn(HL)(phen)(2)](2).8.5H(2)O (2), Mn(HL)(phen)(2)(H(2)O).2H(2)O (3), [Mn(HL)(bipy)(2)][Mn(H(2)L)(bipy)(2)](ClO(4)).3H(2)O (4), [Mn(HL)(phen)][Mn(HL)(phen)(H(2)O)] (5), [Mn(2)(HL)(phen)(4)(H(2)O)](ClO(4))(2).4H(2)O (6), [Mn(2)(HL)(phen)(4)(H(2)O)](ClO(4))(2).H(2)O (7), Mn(2)(HL)(2)(bipy)(3)(H(2)O).H(2)O (8), [Mn(HL)(terpy)](2) (9), Mn(7)(OH)(2)(L)(4)(phen)(8).10H(2)O.phen (10), and Mn(HL)(bipy)(H(2)O).2H(2)O (11) have been obtained. 2-4 are mononuclear (4 contains two different mononuclear cluster units) whereas 5-9 feature three types of isolated dinuclear cluster units in which the two Mn(2+) ions are bridged by one or two sulfonate-arsonate ligands. 10 exhibits an interesting heptanuclear cluster in which the Mn(2+) centers are bridged by arsonate, sulfonate groups and hydroxyl anions. 11 features a one-dimensional (1D) chain in which two neighboring Mn(2+) centers are bridged by an arsonate group of a sulfonate-arsonate ligand. Magnetic measurements indicate that 1 exhibits an unprecedented spin topology and behaves as a homospin ferrimagnet whereas 2-4 are essentially paramagnetic. 5-9 and 11 are weakly antiferromagnetic.

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...

02:34Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...
02:46Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
