Abstract
We describe a multidentate tripodal ligand in which three pendant arms carrying di(2-picolyl)amine units are linked to the ortho positions of a tris(o-xylyl) scaffold, providing N(CH[subscript 2]-o-C[subscript 6]H[subscript 4]CH[subscript 2]N(CH2py)[subscript 2])[subscript 3] (L). Reaction of L with CuCl[subscript 2] in the presence of hexafluorophosphate anion afforded blue cubes of [(CuCl)[subscript 3]L](PF[subscript 6])[subscript 3]·5H[subscript 2]O (1). Crystallographic studies of 1 revealed that the three symmetry-related arms each coordinate a {Cu[superscript II]Cl} unit, and two molecules of 1 are connected to one another through a Cu(μ-Cl)[subscript 2]Cu bridge, extending the molecular structure to form a two-dimensional (2-D) layer. These 2-D layers pack in an ABCABC... fashion with PF[subscript 6]– anions located in between. Reaction of 1 with a stoichiometric amount of perrhenate ion afforded blue plates of [(CuCl)[subscript 3]L](PF[subscript 6])(ReO[subscript 4])[subscript 2]·3H[subscript 2]O (2). Compound 2 has the same lattice structure as 1, but the tricopper unit backbone now traps one ReO[subscript 4]– anion through Coulombic interactions. In addition, three molecules of 2 are bridged by a perrhenate ion, forming a Cu[subscript 3](μ[superscript 3]-ReO[subscript 4]) cluster, to give a different 2-D structure displaying a rare tridentate bridging ReO[subscript 4]– mode. Thus, in addition to classic perrhenate trapping through weak Coulombic interactions, 2 represents an exceptional example in which the ReO[subscript 4]– anion is immobilized in an extended framework through tight covalent interactions. The interlamellar PF[subscript 6]– anions in 1 can be exchanged with other anions including perrhenate, perchlorate, or periodate. The structural similarity between perrhenate and pertechnetate makes these materials of potential interest for pertechnetate trapping.
