摘要:
A novel organic-inorganic chromium(III) hybrid salt, triethylammonium<em> trans</em>-diaquabis(oxalato-<em>κ</em><sup>2</sup>O<sup>1</sup>,O<sup>2</sup>)chromate(III), (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>16</sub>N)[Cr(C<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>] (1), has been synthesized in aqueous solution and characterized by elemental and thermal analyses, FTIR and UV-Vis spectroscopies, and by single crystal X-ray structure determination. Compound 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, <em>Pbcn</em> space group with the unit cell parameters <em>a</em> = 11.1776(10), <em>b </em>= 7.6105(10), <em>c</em> = 17.5654(2) <span style="font-family:Verdana, Helvetica, Arial;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;">Å</span>, <em>α</em> = <em>β</em> = <em>γ</em> = 90<span style="white-space:nowrap;">°</span>, <em>V</em> = 1494.24(3) <span style="font-family:Verdana, Helvetica, Arial;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;">Å</span>3, <em>Z</em> = 4 and <em>Z’</em> = 1/2. The structure of 1 consists of [Cr(C<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>]<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><sup>−</sup></span> mononuclear anions and triethylammonium [(C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>NH]<sup>+</sup> cations. In the anionic unit, the CrIII ion is six coordinated, in a distorted octahedral geometry, by four equatorial O atoms of two oxalate anions acting as chelating ligands and two O atoms from <em>trans</em>-coordinated water molecules occupying the apical positions with longer metal-oxygen distances. In the solid, O-H … O and N-H … O intra and inter molecular hydrogen bonding interactions connect the components into a 3D network. The triethylammonium cations are disordered among two possible orientations with occupancies rates around 50% for C4, N1, C1a, C1b, C4<sup>ii</sup>, N1<sup>ii</sup>, C1a<sup>ii</sup>, C1b<sup>ii</sup> (ii = <span style="white-space:nowrap;">−</span><em>x</em> + 1, <em>y</em>, <span style="white-space:nowrap;">−
