RT Journal Article T1 Microwave and solvothermal methods for the synthesis of nickel and ruthenium complexes with 9-anthracene carboxylate ligand A1 Cortijo Montes, Miguel A1 Delgado-Martínez, Patricia A1 González Prieto, Rodrigo A1 Herrero Domínguez, Santiago A1 Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes A1 Perles Hernáez, Josefina A1 Priego Bermejo, José Luis A1 Torres, Marisa Rosario AB Microwave and solvothermal activation processes have been explored as tools for the preparation of various nickel and ruthenium complexes. Different reaction conditions are tested using ethanol or water as solvents. Three nickel derivatives, [Ni(9-atc)2(OH2)2(py)2]·2EtOH (1), [Ni2(9-atc)4(OH2)(py)4]·2H2O (2·2H2O), and [Ni2(9-atc)4(py)2] (3), and two diruthenium compounds, {[Ru2Cl(9-atc)4]·2H2O}n (4) and [Ru2(9-atc)4(EtOH)2]·2EtOH (5), are obtained. The crystal structure determination of complexes 1-3 and 5 is also described. Compound 1 displays a 1D extended supramolecular structure with hydrogen bonds involving crystallization solvent molecules. Compound 2 is dimetallic, and both nickel centers show an octahedral coordination environment, whereas complexes 3 and 5 display a typical carboxylate-bridged paddlewheel-type structure with two metal atoms connected by four bridging carboxylate ligands. All compounds show weak antiferromagnetic interactions except 3, where a strong intra-dimer antiferromagnetic coupling is observed. Compound 4 also shows a strong zero field splitting.
