Mono- and heteroligand iron(II) complexes with tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane

Abstract

Coordination compounds of iron(II) thiocyanate with tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane (HC(3,5-Me₂Pz)₃), [Fe(HC(3,5-Me₂Pz)₃)₂](NCS)₂] (I) and [Fe(HC(3,5-Me₂Pz)₃)(Рhz)(NCS)₂] · H₂O (II), where Рhz is phthalazine, are synthesized. The complexes are studied by X-ray diffraction analysis, diffuse reflectance and IR spectroscopy, and static magnetic susceptibility measurements. The single crystals are obtained, and the molecular and crystal structures of complex II and compounds [Fe(HC(3,5-Me₂Pz)₃)(3,5-Me₂Pz)(NCS)₂] · С₂H₅OH (III), where 3,5-Me₂Pz is 3,5-dimethylpyrazole, and [Fe(HC(3,5-Me₂Pz)₃)₂][Fe(HC(3,5-Me₂Pz)₃)(NCS)₃]₂ (IV) are determined (CIF files CCDC 1415452 (II), 1415453 (III), and 1415454 (IV)). The study of the temperature dependence μ_eff(Т) in a range of 2–300 K shows exchange interactions of the antiferromagnetic character between the iron(II) ions in complexes I and II.
