Abstract:
Crystals of the title compound, [Fe(C(8)H(7)N(3))(3)](2)[PMo(12)O(40)]·6H(2)O, prepared under hydro-thermal conditions, are isotypic with the Mn(2+) and Cd(2+) analogues. The Fe(2+) cation is in a distorted octa-hedral coordination by six N atoms from three chelating 3-(2-pyrid-yl)-1H-pyrazole ligands. The heteropoly-anion [PMo(12)O(40)](4-) is a one-electron reduced species in which two O atoms of the central PO(4) group ( symmetry) are equally disordered about an inversion centre. N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds make a contribution to the crystal packing. The Fe-N bond lengths [2.085 (19)-2.15 (2) Å] are somewhat shorter than the Mn-N and Cd-N bond lengths [2.224 (6)-2.283 (5) and 2.316 (7)-2.334 (6) Å, respectively]. All other bond lengths and angles and the hydrogen-bonding motifs are very similar in the isotypic structures.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.

In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
