Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of the tetrakis complex NaNdPyr4(i-PrOH)2·i-PrOH with a carbacylamidophosphate of the amide type

Abstract

The tetrakis complex of neodymium(III), tetrakis{μ-N-[bis(pyrrolidin-1-yl)phosphoryl]acetamidato}bis(propan-2-ol)neodymiumsodium propan-2-ol monosolvate, [NaNd(C10H16Cl3N3O2)4(C3H8O)2]·C3H8O or NaNdPyr4(i-PrOH)2·i-PrOH, with the amide type CAPh ligand bis(N,N-tetramethylene)(trichloroacetyl)phosphoric acid triamide (HPyr), has been synthesized, crystallized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. The complex does not have the tetrakis(CAPh)lanthanide anion, which is typical for ester-type CAPh-based coordination compounds. Instead, the NdO8 polyhedron is formed by one oxygen atom of a 2-propanol molecule and seven oxygen atoms of CAPh ligands in the title compound. Three CAPh ligands are coordinated in a bidentate chelating manner to the NdIII ion and simultaneously binding the sodium cation by μ2-bridging PO and CO groups while the fourth CAPh ligand is coordinated to the sodium cation in a bidentate chelating manner and, due to the μ2-bridging function of the PO group, also binds the neodymium ion.
