Lanthanoid Complexes (lanthanoid + complex)
Selected AbstractsAminopyridinate-Stabilized Lanthanoid Complexes: Synthesis, Structure and Polymerization of Ethylene and IsopreneEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 18 2010Christian Döring Abstract A series of aminopyridinate-stabilized dialkyl-lanthanoid complexes has been synthesized and characterized. The complexes were prepared by alkane elimination reacting [Ln(CH2SiMe3)3(thf)2] (Ln = Er, Yb, Lu) or [Ln(CH2Ph)3(thf)3] (Ln = Y, Er, Lu) with one equivalent of the bulky aminopyridine (2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-[6-(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)pyridin-2-yl]amine. Single-crystal X-ray analyses were carried out for all of the benzyl derivatives. The reaction of these compounds with ammonium borate leads to the elimination of one of the two alkyl functions and affords organolanthanoid cations. The aminopyridinate-stabilized dialkyl-lanthanoid compounds can initiate the polymerization of isoprene after activation with perfluorinated tetraphenyl borates. The obtained polymers have a 3,4-content of 60,95,%. The metal ion size as well as the addition of alkylaluminium compounds influences the microstructure of the obtained polymer. Aminopyridinate-stabilized organolanthanoid cations of Sc, Lu, Er and Y can polymerize ethylene in the presence of alkylaluminium compounds. The Lu, Er and Y complexes act as a CCTP catalyst and the erbium compound exhibits the highest activity.

[source] New 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,HˇˇˇO=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. [source] |
