Abstract:
A coordination complex of cadmium nitrate [Cd(NO3)2] with 2-amino-benzaxole (2AB; C7H6N2O), namely, tetra-kis-(2-amino-benzoxazole-κN 1)bis-(nitrato-κO)cadmium(II), [Cd(NO3)2(2AB)4], has been synthesized from ethanol solutions of Cd(NO3)2·H2O and 2AB. The asymmetric unit comprises half a mol-ecule of [Cd(NO3)2(2AB)4], with the CdII atom positioned on a twofold rotation axis. In the completed mol-ecular complex, four 2AB ligands and two nitrate anions each coordinate monodentately to the CdII atom, leading to a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment. The crystal structure of [Cd(NO3)2(2AB)4] exhibits several N-H⋯O inter-actions, resulting in the formation of a layered assembly parallel to (001). Hishfeld surface analysis was used to qu-antify the inter-molecular inter-actions.

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...

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...
02:46Crystal 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,...
