Abstract
The products of oxidation of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid by manganese dioxide have been used to synthesize crystals of [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] center dot 5H(2)O (Edda is ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetate, and Phen is 1,10-phenanthroline). The X-ray diffraction analysis of the crystals shows that the N atoms of the Edda and Phen ligands lie in the equatorial plane around the Cu atom, and the 0 atoms of ...
Abstract
The products of oxidation of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid by manganese dioxide have been used to synthesize crystals of [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] center dot 5H(2)O (Edda is ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetate, and Phen is 1,10-phenanthroline). The X-ray diffraction analysis of the crystals shows that the N atoms of the Edda and Phen ligands lie in the equatorial plane around the Cu atom, and the 0 atoms of the Edda ligands are localized in more remote axial positions. The [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] complexes are grouped in pairs at a distance of 3.46 angstrom between the mean planes of the Phen ligands. Ten water molecules are united by hydrogen bonds into symmetric isolated clusters, and further they form a three-dimensional framework with the [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] complexes.
