Аннотация

3D coordination polymers cesium nitrilotris(methylenephosphonate) and dicesium nitrilotris( methylenephosphonate) are synthesized and their crystal structure is determined. In the crystal of [Cs-μ⁶-NH(CH₂PO₃)₃H₄] (space group P, Z = 2), cesium atoms occupy two crystallographically inequivalent positions with c.n. = 10 and c.n. = 14. The phosphonate ligand plays the bridging function; its denticity is nine. The crystal packing consists of alternating layers of Cs atoms in different environments with layers of ligand molecules between them. A ligand is bound to three Cs atoms of one layer and three Cs atoms of another layer. In the crystal of [Cs₂-μ¹⁰-NH(CH₂PO₃H)₃] · H₂O (space group P, Z = 2), the complex has a dimeric structure: the bridging phosphonate ligand coordinates Cs to form a three-dimensional Cs₄О₆ cluster. The denticity of the ligand is equal to nine; the coordination numbers of cesium atoms are seven and nine. Two-dimensional corrugated layers of Cs₄О₆ clusters lie in the (002) plane, and layers of ligand molecules are located between them. Each ligand molecule coordinates eight Cs atoms of one layer and two Cs atoms of the neighboring layer.
