[15]Crown-5: An Unsymmetrical Bifacial Hydrogen-Bond Acceptor in Crystal Engineering

Abstract: Reaction of [15]crown-5 with erbium nitrate and a range of nickel salts results in the formation of the hydrogen-bonded chain species [Er(NO3)3(H2O)3]. [15]crown-5 H2O (3), [Ni(H2O)6]Br2 [15]crown-5 2H2O (4), [Ni(H2O)6](ClO4)2 x [15]crown-5 2H2O (5), [Ni(H2O)6](NO3)2 [15]crown-5 2H2O (6) and [[Ni(H2O)4]2(muCl)2]Cl2 [15]crown-5 (7). Complexes 3-5 exhibit low symmetry structures with 2-4 unique crown ether molecules, whereas 6 and 7 are more symmetrical. The factors contributing to this behaviour are discussed w… Show more

“…Evaporation of aqueous solutions equimolar in Ni(NO 3 ) 2 Á6H 2 O and 15-crown-5 invariably gave the compound [Ni(H 2 O) 6 ](NO 3 ) 2 Á15C5Á2H 2 O (see Steed et al, 2001). Attempts were then made to restrict the water available to the Ni 2+ ion, usually by recrystallizing from nonaqueous solvents.…”

“…Before we were finally successful we had made five other compounds that all contained a sixcoordinate Ni 2+ ion (with at least two of the ligands being water molecules), nitrate ions and a 15-crown-5. The structure of one of these compounds (refcode XEMGIF) had been reported by Steed et al (2001), but the other four are new. The five compounds have water/Ni 2+ ratios as high as 8 and as low as 2.…”
