Abstract: A cadmium(Ⅱ) complex Cd2(2,4-DAA)4(phen)2 with 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-DAA), 1,10-phenanthro line(phen) has been synthesized by means of solvothermal way and characterized. Crystal data for this complex: triclinic, space group P1, a=0.916 90(9) nm, b=1.064 51(11) nm, c=1.566 4(2) nm, α=108.482(2)°, β=103.353(2)°, γ=96.577 0(10)°, V=1.381 4(3) nm3, Dc=1.761 g·cm-3, Z=1, F(000)=728, Final GooF=1.020, R1=0.026 3, wR2=0.054 1. The crystal structure shows that two neighboring cadmium(Ⅱ) ions are linked together by two bridging 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid radicals, forming a binuclear structure. Each cadmium(Ⅱ) ion is coordinated with two nitrogen atoms of one 1,10-phenanthroline molecule and four oxygen atoms from three 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid radicals, forming a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. The cyclic voltammetric behavior of the complex was also investigated. CCDC: 727586. |
