  • Supramolecular architecture of metal-organic frameworks involving dinuclear copper Paddle-Wheel complexes.
    Acta crystallographica. Section C Crystal structure communications, 2013
    Co-Authors: Sundaramoorthy Gomathi, Packianathan Thomas Muthiah
    Abstract:

    The two centrosymmetric dinuclear copper Paddle-Wheel complexes tetrakis(μ-4-hydroxybenzoato-κ(2)O:O')bis[aquacopper(II)] dimethylformamide disolvate dihydrate, [Cu2(C7H5O3)4(H2O)2]·2C3H7NO·2H2O, (I), and tetrakis(μ-4-methoxybenzoato-κ(2)O:O')bis[(dimethylformamide-κO)copper(II)], [Cu2(C8H7O3)4(C3H7NO)2], (II), crystallize with half of the dinuclear Paddle-Wheel cage unit in the asymmetric unit and, in addition, complex (I) has one dimethylformamide (DMF) and one water solvent molecule in the asymmetric unit. In both (I) and (II), two Cu(II) ions are bridged by four syn,syn-η(1):η(1):μ carboxylate groups, showing a Paddle-Wheel cage-type structure with a square-pyramidal coordination geometry. The equatorial positions of (I) and (II) are occupied by the carboxylate groups of 4-hydroxy- and 4-methoxybenzoate ligands, and the axial positions are occupied by aqua and DMF ligands, respectively. The three-dimensional supramolecular metal-organic framework of (I) consists of three different R2(2)(20) and an R4(4)(36) ring motif formed via O-H···O and OW-HW···O hydrogen bonds. Complex (II) simply packs as molecular species.

    Abstract:

    The two centrosymmetric dinuclear copper Paddle-Wheel complexes tetra­kis­(μ-4-hy­droxy­benzoato-κ2O:O′)bis­[aqua­copper(II)] di­methyl­formamide disolvate dihydrate, [Cu2(C7H5O3)4(H2O)2]·2C3H7NO·2H2O, (I), and tetra­kis­(μ-4-meth­oxy­benzoato-κ2O:O′)bis­[(di­methyl­formamide-κO)copper(II)], [Cu2(C8H7O3)4(C3H7NO)2], (II), crystallize with half of the dinuclear Paddle-Wheel cage unit in the asymmetric unit and, in addition, complex (I) has one di­methyl­formamide (DMF) and one water solvent mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. In both (I) and (II), two CuII ions are bridged by four syn,syn-η1:η1:μ carboxyl­ate groups, showing a Paddle-Wheel cage-type structure with a square-pyramidal coordination geometry. The equatorial positions of (I) and (II) are occupied by the carboxyl­ate groups of 4-hy­droxy- and 4-meth­oxy­benzoate ligands, and the axial positions are occupied by aqua and DMF ligands, respectively. The three-dimensional supra­molecular metal–organic framework of (I) consists of three different R22(20) and an R44(36) ring motif formed via O—H⋯O and OW—HW⋯O hydrogen bonds. Complex (II) simply packs as mol­ecular species.

  • Synthesis, characterization and X-ray structural studies of four copper (II) complexes containing dinuclear Paddle Wheel structures
    Chemistry Central Journal, 2013
    Co-Authors: Samson Jegan Jenniefer, Packianathan Thomas Muthiah
    Abstract:

    Background Various dinuclear copper (II) complexes with octahedral geometry have been reported. The majority of these complexes contain N containing aromatic rings as axial ligands. There are also a few cases where the solvent used in the reaction occupies the axial position of the dinuclear copper (II) complex. This may occur by planned synthesis or some times by serendipity. Here we report some four copper (II) complexes containing solvent and or N containing heterocyclic ring as the axial ligand. Results Four compounds, each containing dinuclear Copper (II) units (with the most robust, frequently occurring Paddle Wheel structures) were synthesized and characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction and by IR spectroscopy. The compounds 1 & 2 have the general formula Cu_2(RCOO) _4(L)_2 [(for (1) RCOO= 4-Chloro Benzoate, L= Isopropanol; for 2 RCOO= Benzoate, L= 2-Amino-4,6-dimethyl pyrimidine )] while 3 & 4 have the general formula, Cu_2(RCOO) _4(S)_2 Cu_2(RCOO) _4(L)_2 [RCOO=5-Chloro-thiophene-2-carboxylate L= 2-Amino-4,6-dimethyl pyrimidine, for 3 S= ethanol; for 4 S= methanol ]. A wide range of hydrogen bonds (of the O-H…O, N-H…O and N-H…N type) and π-π stacking interactions are present in the crystal structures. Conclusions All compounds contain the dinuclear units, in which two Cu (II) ions are bridged by four syn , syn -η^1:η^1:μ carboxylates, showing a Paddle-Wheel cage type with a distorted octahedral geometry. The compounds 1 & 2 contain a single dimeric unit while 3 & 4 contain two dimeric units. The structures 3 and 4 are very interesting co-crystals of two Paddle Wheel molecules. Also it is interesting to note that the compounds 3 & 4 are isostructural with similar cell parameters. Both the compounds 3 & 4 differ in the solvent molecule coordinated to copper in one of the dimeric units. In all the four compounds, each of the copper dimers has an inversion centre. Every copper has a distorted octahedral centre, formed by four oxygen atoms (from different carboxylate) in the equatorial sites. The two axial positions are occupied by copper and the corresponding ligand.

  • ligand engineering in cu ii Paddle Wheel metal organic frameworks for enhanced semiconductivity
    Journal of Materials Chemistry, 2020
    Co-Authors: Matthias J. Golomb, Joaquín Calbo, Jessica K. Bristow, Aron Walsh
    Abstract:

    We report the electronic structure of two metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with copper Paddle Wheel nodes connected by a N2(C2H4)3 (DABCO) ligand with accessible nitrogen lone pairs. The coordination is predicted, from first-principles density functional theory, to enable electronic pathways that could facilitate charge carrier mobility. Calculated frontier crystal orbitals indicate extended electronic communication in DMOF-1, but not in MOF-649. This feature is confirmed by band structure calculations and effective masses of the valence band edge. We explain the origin of the frontier orbitals of both MOFs based on the energy and symmetry alignment of the underlying building blocks. The effects of isovalent substitution on the band structure of MOF-649 are considered. Our findings highlight DMOF-1 as a potential semiconductor with enhanced 1D charge carrier mobility along the framework.
