Selected AbstractsNew Approaches to 12-Coordination: Structural Consequences of Steric Stress, Lanthanoid Contraction and Hydrogen BondingEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 18 2010Anthony S. R. Chesman Abstract The anionic dinitrile ligand dicyanonitrosomethanide (dcnm), C(CN)2(NO),, and the anion resulting from its addition product with water, carbamoylcyanonitrosomethanide (ccnm), C(CN)(CONH2)(NO),, have been incorporated into lanthanoid complexes and display unusual ,2(N,O) nitroso coordination modes. (Et4N)3[Ln(ccnm)6] (1Ln; 1Ln = 1La, 1Ce, 1Pr, 1Nd, 1Sm) and (Me4N)3[Ln(ccnm)6] (2Ln; 2Ln = 2La, 2Ce, 2Pr, 2Nd) are systems containing 12-coordinate homoleptic trianionic lanthanoidate complexes. The nitroso groups of the ccnm ligands form three-membered ring chelates with the lanthanoid metal centre, with the asymmetry of the nitroso ,2 interactions dependent upon the intramolecular N,H···O=N hydrogen bonding. Additional intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions exist between adjacent amide and nitrile groups giving rise to 3D ,-Po and 6,8-connected (412.63)(420.68) networks in 1Ln and 2Ln, respectively. The compounds (Me4N)3[Ln(dcnm)6] (3Ln; 3Ln = 3La, 3Ce, 3Nd, 3Sm) also contain a 12-coordinate trianionic lanthanoidate complex with the nitroso group exhibiting a highly symmetrical ,2 interaction. The sterically crowded environments of [Ln(18-crown-6)(dcnm)3] (4Ln; 4Ln = 4La, 4Ce, 4Pr, 4Nd) result in a shift towards a more asymmetric ,2 bonding of the nitroso group with decrease in the Ln3+ radius. There is a corresponding increase of the Ln,O,N angle, and one ligand is ,1(O) binding in 4Nd. The dcnm ligands in the discrete complexes [La(phen)3(dcnm)(3,x)Clx], x , 0.25 (5) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), (Et4N)[Ce(phen)2(dcnm)4] (6a/b, 6c) and [Ce(phen)2(dcnm)Cl2H2O] (7) display a variety of coordination modes. Complex 5 has 1D chains formed by ,,, stacking of adjacent phen co-ligands. Complexes 6 contain the monoanionic complex [Ce(phen)2(dcnm)4], with two geometric isomers present in the crystal structure of 6a/b. Complex 7 forms extended 1D chains via hydrogen bonding between coordinated water and chloride atoms and an extensive array of face-to-face , interactions.

Segro Abstract Sol,gel technology provides a simple and reliable method for solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber preparation through in situ creation of surface-bonded organic,inorganic hybrid coatings characterized by enhanced thermal stability and solvent-resistance properties that are important for the coupling of SPME with GC and HPLC, respectively. The sol,gel coating technology has led to the development of an extensive array of sol,gel sorbent coatings for SPME. In this article, sol,gel microextraction coatings are reviewed, with particular attention on their synthesis, characterization, and applications in conjunction with GC and HPLC analyses. In addition, the development of sol,gel-coated stir bars, their inherent advantages, and applications are discussed. Next, the development and applications of sol,gel capillary microextraction (CME) in hyphenation with GC and HPLC is extensively reviewed. The newly emerging germania- and titania-based sol,gel microextraction phases look promising, especially in terms of pH and hot solvent stability. Finally, sol,gel monolithic beds for CME are reviewed. Such monolithic beds are in a position to greatly improve the extracting capabilities and enhanced sensitivity in CME. [source] Square-grid coordination networks of diaquabis(4,4,-bipyridyl)copper(II) crosslinked by hydrogen bonds through two monoanions of 1-benzofuran-2,3-dicarboxylic acid and five molecules of waterACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION C, Issue 2 2009Rajesh Koner The title compound, poly[[[diaquacopper(II)]-di-,-4,4,-bipyridyl] bis(3-carboxy-1-benzofuran-2-carboxylate) pentahydrate], {[Cu(C10H8N2)2(H2O)2](C10H5O5)2·5H2O}n, crystallizes in a single-framework architecture. It is composed of two-dimensional square-grid coordination networks of 1:2:2 copper,4,4,-bipyridine,water units, wherein each copper ion coordinates equatorially to four bipyridyl units and axially to two water ligands. The polymeric nets are intercalated by layers of the benzofurandicarboxylic acid monoanions and additional water species. An extensive array of hydrogen bonds interlinks the various components of the structure. The Cu atom and the bipyridyl entities are located on axes of twofold rotation. This study confirms the preferred monoanionic nature of the benzofurandicarboxylic acid molecule. It reveals a rarely observed extended coordination polymer composed only of copper ions and bipyridyl linkers, and an interesting hydrogen-bonding connectivity between the polymeric layers aided by the benzofurandicarboxylic acid and water components intercalated in the structure.

Hydrophilic regions are generated by O,H...O hydrogen bonds among sulfonate groups, involving solvent water molecules and coordinated water molecules; ,,, stacking interactions assemble the flavone skeletons into columns which form the hydrophobic regions. A three-dimensional network is built up from an extensive array of hydrogen bonds, ,,, stacking interactions and electrostatic interactions between the cation and anion. As a salt of the sulfonated derivative of naturally occurring tectochrysin (5-hydroxy-7-methoxyflavone), this compound offers enhanced solubility and potential biological activity over the natural product.
