Abstract

Two 3d-4f bimetallic complexes, {[(bpca)Fe (CN)3Pr (H 2O)5]Cl2}n (1) and {[(bpca) 2Fe2 (CN)6Pr (H2O)6]Cl · 4H2O}n (2) (bpca=bis(2-pyridylcarbonyl)amidate anion), have been synthesized and their crystal structures were determined. Complex 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma while complex 2 is in the triclinic space group P1̄. Both complexes possess novel one-dimensional (1D) chain structures with alternating arrays of [(bpca)Fe (CN3]- and [Pr(H2O)x]3+ (x=5 for 1 and 6 for 2) fragments. They exhibit 3D supramolecular architectures through π-π stacking interactions, hydrogen bonds and short-distance intermolecular interactions. CCDC: 624698,1; 624699, 2.
