New binuclear bis(2,4,6,8-tetramethyl-2,4,6,8-tetraazobicyclo(3.3.0)octane-3,7-dione-O,O')-tetraaqua-hexakis(nitrato-O,O')-disamarium(III) complex: Synthesis and crystal structure

Аннотация

The centrosymmetric binuclear complex of samarium(III) nitrate with bicyclic biscarbamide 2,4,6,8-tetramethyl-2,4,6,8-tetraazabicyclo(3.3.0)octane-3,7-dione, or mebicar (Mk) namely, [Sm(C₈H₁₄N₄O₂)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₃]₂ (I) has been synthesized. Its crystal structure has been characterized (CIF file CCDC no. 1451436). Crystals of complex I are triclinic, space group P1 a = 9.8661(2) Å, b = 10.2913(3) Å, c = 10.9629(3) Å, α = 74.475(2)°, β = 67.802(2)°, γ = 67.570(2)°, V = 942.68(5) ų, ρcalcd = 2.01028 g/cm³, and Z = 1. The samarium atom is coordinated by the two oxygen atoms of two Mk molecules bonded via the symmetry center, three bidentate nitrate anions, and two water molecules. The coordination number of the samarium atom is 10, the coordination polyhedron of the metal atom is a decahedron and the Sm…Sm distance is 9.7904(4) Å.
