Inorganic Coordination Polymers. Part XIX. Steric Effects of Hydrocarbon Side Groups on the Structure and Properties of Zinc(II), Cobalt(II), Manganese(II), Nickel(II) and Copper(II) Bis(Phosphinates).
Abstract
The metal (II) dialkylphosphinates M(OPR2O)2 (with M = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn; R = -C(CH3)3, -CH2CH2CH2CH3 and -CH(CH3)-CH2CH2CH3) have been investigated. The structures of the complexes with straight chain R substituents vary for the different metals and include polymers with both octahedrally and tetrahedrally coordinated metal centers. On the other hand, the metal(II) phosphinates that contain bulky alkyl R substituents all appear to have the same structure, which contains tetrahedrally coordinated metal centers and symmetrically bridging O,O' phosphinate groups.
