Abstract:The title compound, (C21H33N2O)2[SmCl5(C4H8O)]·C7H8·C4H8O, has a layered structure in which each distorted octahedral [SmCl5(THF)]2− unit (THF is tetrahydrofuran) is capped by two cations. The central metal SmIII atom of the [SmCl5(THF)]2− anionic unit is coordinated by five Cl atoms and one THF O atom, forming a distorted octahedral geometry. The crystal structure displays C—H⋯Cl and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding. The structure exhibits disorder of the solvent.
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.
