Abstract
The salt metathesis reaction between sodium 2-hydroxyphenylacetate (Na(2hpa)) and a rare earth (RE) metal nitrate or chloride in an aqueous ethanol medium has yielded a series of rare earth one-dimensional (1-D) coordination polymers [La(2hpa)3(H2O)2]n (1), {[RE2(2hpa)6(H2O)4]⋅3.5H2O}n (RE = Ce (2), Nd (3)), and {[RE2(2hpa)6(H2O)2]·3H2O}n (RE = Gd (4), Dy (5), Y (6), Er (7), Yb (8)) which have three different crystal structures. All structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), except Y (6) and Yb (8) compounds, which were isomorphous with Gd (4), Dy (5), and Er (7) complexes by their unit cell parameters and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) patterns. Only the La complex (1) has a mononuclear repeating unit while the others are based on binuclear units. The chelating bridging carboxylate coordination mode is common for all complexes. In addition, complexes 1–3 exhibit the chelating mode with the 10-coordination number whereas complexes 4–8 have syn-syn-bridging bidentate binding with the coordination number of 9. In the weight loss anti-corrosion experiments, the {[Gd2(2hpa)6(H2O)2]·3H2O}n (4) compound demonstrated the highest inhibition efficiency of 57 %. A significant difference between RE 2-hydroxyphenylacetate complexes and [Ce(salH)3(H2O)]n was usually not observed indicating little impact of the -CH2- unit between carboxylate and benzene ring. The reduced corrosion inhibition efficiencies of RE 2-hydroxyphenylacetate complexes compared with RE 4-hydroxyphenylacetates confirm the positive effect of the p-OH group on the benzene ring on anti-corrosion properties.
期刊介绍:
Inorganica Chimica Acta is an established international forum for all aspects of advanced Inorganic Chemistry. Original papers of high scientific level and interest are published in the form of Articles and Reviews.
Topics covered include:
• chemistry of the main group elements and the d- and f-block metals, including the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of coordination, organometallic, biomimetic, supramolecular coordination compounds, including associated computational studies;
• synthesis, physico-chemical properties, applications of molecule-based nano-scaled clusters and nanomaterials designed using the principles of coordination chemistry, as well as coordination polymers (CPs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal-organic polyhedra (MPOs);
• reaction mechanisms and physico-chemical investigations computational studies of metalloenzymes and their models;
• applications of inorganic compounds, metallodrugs and molecule-based materials.
Papers composed primarily of structural reports will typically not be considered for publication.
