A new organic-inorganic hybrid salt pipéridinium trans-diaquabis(oxalato)chromate(III) tetrahydrate, (C 5 H 10 NH 2 )[Cr(C 2 O 4 ) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ]•4H 2 O (1), has been synthesized in water and characterized by FTIR and UV-Vis spectroscopies, elemental and thermal analyses and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic non-centrosymmetric space group Cmc2 1 with the unit cell parameters a = 7.4329(3), b = 9.9356(5), c = 23.6756(11) Å, α = β = γ = 90˚, V = 1748.45(14) Å 3 and Z = 4. The structure of 1 consists of [Cr(C 2 O 4 ) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] − mononuclear anions, piperidinium cations and uncoordinated water molecules. The Cr III ion in the complex [Cr(C 2 O 4 ) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] − is coordinated in a slightly distorted octahedral environment by four O atoms from two chelating oxalate dianions in the equatorial plane, and two O atoms from trans-coordinated water molecules occupying the apical positions. In the crystal, N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bond interactions connect the components into a 3-D framework. The IR spectrum of 1 is consistent with the presence of the various molecular building constituents, namely oxalato and aqua ligands, piperidinium cations and solvent water molecules. The UV-Vis spectrum shows two absorption bands around 564 and 416 nm which are
The title compound, [Ni(H2O)6][BaCr(C2O4)3(H2O)3]2·4H2O, was obtained in the form of single crystals from the slow evaporation of an aqueous mixture of {Ba6(H2O)17[Cr(C2O4)3]4}·7H2O and NiSO4·6H2O in the molar ratio 1:4. Its structure is made up of corrugated anionic (101) layers of formula [BaCr(C2O4)3(H2O)3]

− that leave voids accommodating the charge-compensating cations, [Ni(H2O)6]2+ (point group symmetry \overline{1}), as well as the water molecules of crystallization. The anionic layers are built from the connection of barium and chromium atoms through bridging oxalate ligands. The CrIII atom is hexacoordinated by O atoms of three oxalate ligands while the BaII atom is tenfold coordinated by three O atoms of water molecules and seven O atoms of four oxalate ligands. Each NiII atom sits on an inversion center and is coordinated by six water molecules. One of the uncoordinated water molecules is disordered over two sites, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.51 (5):0.49 (5). In the crystal, extensive O—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions link the anionic layers, the charge-balancing cations as well as the water molecules of crystallization into a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C2H6N4O2)3]SO4·5H2O, contains two complex cations, two sulfate anions and ten lattice water molecules. In both independent cations, the central NiII ion adopts a distorted octahedral coordination involving six imino N atoms of three bidentate oxamide dioxime ligands. The bulk structure is achieved by a three-dimensional network of O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds which interlink the ionic partners and some water molecules in such a manner that the lattice framework thus formed defines channels parallel to [100]. The other water molecules are lodged inside these channels. Two of the ten water molecules in the asymmetric unit are disordered over three sites, in 0.356 (3):0.324 (5):0.320 (5) and 0.247 (3):0.293 (6):0.460 (6) occupancy ratios, and one O atom of a sulfate ion is also disordered over two sites, with occupancies of 0.621 (5) and 0.379 (5).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
