ABSTRACT: The self-assembly reactions of Ln(NO3)3 · aq (Ln ) La, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, and Yb) with K3[Fe(CN)6] and three monosulfoxide ligands, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), diethylsulfoxide (DESO), and tetramethylene sulfoxide (TMSO), respectively, in water give rise to three series of 21 LnIII-FeIII complexes with ten kinds of compositions and structures: cis-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2La(H2O)3(DMSO)3]n · nH2O (1), [Fe(CN)5(µ-CN)Ln(H2O)3(DMSO)4] · H2O [Ln ) Nd (2), Dy (5)], [Fe(CN)5(µCN)Ln(H2O)4(DMSO)3] · H2O [Ln ) Sm (3), Gd (4)], trans-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2Ln(H2O)(DMSO)4]n [Ln ) Er (6), Yb (7)], [Fe(CN)6][La(H2O)6(DESO)3] (8), trans-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2Ln(H2O)4(DESO)2]n · 2nH2O [Ln ) Nd (9), Sm (10), Gd (11), Dy (12), Er (13)], cis-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2Yb(H2O)3(DESO)2]n · 2nH2O (14), [Fe(CN)5(µ-CN)Ln(H2O)3(TMSO)4] · 1.5H2O [Ln ) La (15), Nd (16), Gd (18)], cis-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2Sm(H2O)4(TMSO)2]n (17) and cis-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2Ln(H2O)3(TMSO)2]n · nH2O [Ln ) Dy (19), Er (20), Yb (21)]. The X-ray structure analyses show that 2-5, 15, 16, and 18 have cyano-bridged dinuclear structures; 1, 6, 7, 9-14, 17, and 19-21 form one-dimensional (1D) chain structures; but 8 is an ionic compound without cyano-bridging. For those complexes with 1D structure, there are also different configurations ascribed to the cis- or trans-coordination of bridging CNmoieties to the FeIII ion. The coordination of two CN- moieties to one LnIII ion is all-trans (N-Ln-N > 90°), mainly due to the steric effect of Fe(CN)63- entities. Further, such complexes feature extensive O-H · · · O and O-H · · · N hydrogen bonds that give rise to different three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular structures and stabilize and influence these structures. The differences of composition and structure of these complexes may be attributed to the structural differences of the three monosulfoxide blocking ligands, as well as different lanthanide ions to some extent, although a general rule (or underlying relationship) can not be deduced. Introduction There has been continued interest in the design and syntheses of molecule-based magnetic materials composed of cyanobridged bimetallic assemblies because of their remarkable magnetic, magnetic-optical, and optoelectronic properties.1 These studies have been mainly focused on transition metals and have led to some exciting results.1a–d,2 Although some advances in this field have also led to the isolation of some discrete or supramolecular polynuclear 4f-3d cyano-bridged complexes, systematic investigations are relatively rare.3 Indeed, it is known that the lanthanide ions (LnIII) exhibit large and anisotropic magnetic moments and can form hard magnets when incorporated into a solid. On the other hand, lanthanide ions have rich coordination chemistry with higher coordination numbers and greater coordination flexibility, which often lead to unanticipated but remarkable structures.4 The general synthetic approach for such metal assemblies is to utilize hexacyanometalate ions, such as [Fe(CN)6]3- and [Cr(CN)6]3-, as building blocks to react with lanthanide salts in a 1:1 stoichiometry, in the presence of an organic blocking ligand (BL). Since 1998, when the first dinuclear 4f-3d cyanide-bridged complex, [Sm(DMF)4(H2O)4Fe(CN)6] · H2O, with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) molecule as a blocking ligand was reported,5 complexes with various stages of hydration and organic blocking ligands have been investigated.3c,6,7 For example, very * To whom correspondence should be addressed.

Scheme 1

recently Diaz et al.7 studied systematically LnIII-FeIII, LnIII-CrIII complexes with DMF and bpy as blocking ligands, respectively, almost across all LnIII ions with the aim to explore the structures and magnetic interactions. On the basis of the literature, structural changes are observed when using different blocking ligands, solvents, or reaction stoichiometries or changing the specific lanthanide ion. To some extent, the suitable use of blocking organic ligands can adjust the compositions and structures of the resulting complexes, thereby giving various molecular architectures and magnetic phenomena. Thus, until now the major emphasis in this topic was the search for proper organic blocking ligands. Recently, we have designed and prepared several cyano-bridged LnIII-FeIII and LnIII-CoIII complexes with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) as blocking ligands, and investigated the nature of the magnetic interaction between the LnIII and FeIII ions in such complexes.8 As an expansion of this work, we synthesized systematically and characterized other 21 LnIII-FeIII complexes with three monosulfoxide compounds as blocking ligands (Scheme 1). LaIII, NdIII, SmIII, GdIII, DyIII, ErIII and YbIII were selected as representatives of the whole lanthanide series. Three monosulfoxide ligands, DMSO, dieth-

ylsulfoxide (DESO), and tetramethylene sulfoxide (TMSO), are structurally closely related to each other, but with different sizes and shapes of alkyl groups. By carrying out this work, we are trying to explore the influences of the blocking ligands and the lanthanide ions on the complex compositions and structures that combine elements of design toward crystal engineering and the study of magnetic properties. Herein, we report the syntheses and crystal structures of such complexes, as well as a general

comparison dicussion based on modifing structures by the alteration of blocking ligands and lanthanide ions. Experimental Section Elemental analyses (C, H, and N) were carried out with a PerkinElmer 240C analyzer. IR spectra were measured on a Tensor 27 OPUS (Bruker) FT-IR spectrometer with KBr pellets.

Preparations of the Complexes. All chemicals and solvents used in the syntheses were of reagent grade and used without further purification. Ln(NO3)3 · nH2O compounds were obtained by the reaction of lanthanide oxide (>99.9%) and nitrate acid. DMSO and TMSO were purchased from Aldrich. DESO was synthesized by oxidizing diethylsulfur using concentrated nitric acid. Safety note: Cyanide salts are toxic and should be handled with caution. All complexes were prepared using the similar procedure as follows. To a solution of Ln(NO3)3 (0.2 mmol) in H2O/DMSO, H2O/DESO, or H2O/TMSO (3 mL, about 2:1 volume ratio) was slowly added an equal molar amount of K3[Fe(CN)6] in 4 mL of water with stirring, and an orange solid soon precipitated. The resulting solution was continuously stirred for 20 min and then filtered. The filtration was left to stand, and the solvents were evaporated at room temperature.

The intensity data collection for suitable crystals of complexes 1, 2, 7, 15, and 17-20 were taken on a Siemens SMART CCD diffractometer, and others on a Rigaku RAXIS-RAPID diffractometer with graphite-monochromated Mo KR radiation (λ ) 0.71073 Å) at 293(2) K. The program SAINT9 was used for integration of the diffraction profiles. All structures were solved by direct methods using the SHELXS program of the SHELXTL package and refined with SHELXL.10 Metal atoms were found from E-maps, and other non-hydrogen atoms were located in successive difference Fourier syntheses. The final refinement was performed by full matrix least-squares methods with anisotropic thermal parameters for non-hydrogen atoms on F2. Hydrogen atoms of sulfoxide ligands were included in the calculated positions and refined with isotropic thermal parameters riding in on the parent atoms. Except for 2, in which the water hydrogen atoms could not be located, the hydrogen atoms of water molecules of all complexes were located from difference Fourier maps and restrained to O-H ) 0.85(1) Å. In some complexes, sulfur atoms of ligands were disordered and refined using suitable modes with restraint. Selected crystallographic parameters are summarized in Tables 1–3, and further details containing bond parameters as a CIF file, as well as hydrogen bond parameters (Tables 1S, 3S-21S), are provided in Supporting Information.

similar reaction condition, by a solution (H2O and BL) selfassembly method, being widely used in other relative systems, and the reactive or structural control seems to be impossible in this system, as discussed below. Three structurally related monosulfoxide ligands, DMSO, DESO, and TMSO, were selected as organic blocking ligand, with the aim to explore the influences of them on the compositions and structures of the resulting complexes, considering their different sizes and shapes. The use of fewer BL (1:8 and 1:10 ratio with H2O) was initially expected to form higher dimensional complexes.

However, orange precipitates but not crystals were always formed after several days. The XRPD characterization of the precipitate for selected complexes showed that the XRPD pattern is not the same as that simulated from X-ray single crystal data. We did not attempt to further determine the structures of such precipitates. For all of the crystal products 1-21, elemental analyses (C, H, and N) are basically consistent with the formulations demonstrated by the X-ray analysis. The IR spectra of such complexes show characteristic CtN stretching vibration bands in the range of 2100-2200 cm-1. In some cases, the splitting of ν(CtN) suggests the presence of both bridged and terminal CN- coordination. The strong bands near 1000 cm-1 are assigned to the SdO stretching vibrations of monosulfoxide ligands. In addition, such complexes are air-stable and insoluble in methanol and acetone. Crystal Structure Descriptions. cis-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2La(H2O)3(DMSO)3]n · nH2O (1). Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P212121. The structure consists of a 1D wavy chain polymer (Figure 1a) being made by the cyano-bridged alternating array of Fe(CN)63- and La(H2O)3(DMSO)33+ fragments and crystallization water molecules. The LaIII ion is eight-coordinated by three DMSO molecules, three water molecules, and two nitrogen atoms of bridging cyanide ligands, to give a distorted square antiprism geometry. As listed in Table 4, three La-O(DMSO) lengths are almost equivalent with an average value of 2.427(1) Å, being shorter than La-O(H2O) (average bond distance 2.537(1) Å), indicating that DMSO has a stronger affinity to LaIII ion than that of H2O in this complex. Two La-N bonds are also almost equal with the average length of 2.689(2) Å. Six cyanide ligands coordinate the FeIII ion in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry, with similar Fe-C bond distances. Each Fe(CN)63entity bridges two LaIII ions using two cis cyanide ligands, but each LaIII ion contacts two Fe(CN)63- fragments in a trans fashion with a N-La-N angle of 145.34(4)°, giving a wavy chain. The intrachain distances between the two metal atoms across the cyanide bridges are 5.765(2) Å for La1 · · · Fe1 and 5.390(1) Å for La1B · · · Fe1. It is interesting that all FeIII and LaIII ions in the chain are coplanar and the Fe1-La1-Fe1A and La1-Fe1A-La1A angles are equivalent with a size of 119.7(3)°. Also, the La · · · La separation of 9.622(1) Å across one Fe(CN)63- fragment is equal to the Fe · · · Fe distance across one La(H2O)3(DMSO)33+. The bridging cyanides coordinate to the LaIII ions in a basically linear and a bend fashion with C1-N1-La1 and C6-N6-La1B angles of 173.24(14)° and 141.57(12)°, respectively. In addition, in 1, the chains are arranged parallelly along the a direction and linked to each other

Complexes 2 and 5 have similar molecular structures but crystallize in different space groups, P21 for 2 and P21/n for 5. Attempts to refine 2 in a high symmetric space group (P21/n or P21/c) are unsuccessful. Indeed, the structure of 5 is also isomorphous to a reported complex [Fe(CN)5(µCN)Nd(H2O)3(DMSO)4] · H2O, a polymorph of 2 reported by us.8 The structures of them consist of a cyano-bridged array of Fe(CN)63- and Ln(H2O)3(DMSO)43+ fragments as a dinuclear molecule and a crystallization water molecule.

the structure of 2 is shown in Figure 2, and the selected bond distances and angles of both are given in Table 5. The LnIII ion eight-coordinates to four DMSO molecules, three water molecules, and one nitrogen atoms of bridging cyanide ligands, to give a distorted square antiprism geometry. The distances of Ln-O bonds range from 2.317(3) to 2.614(3) Å with an average of 2.440(3) Å for 2 and from 2.382(3) to 2.529(3) with an average of 2.431(1) Å for 5. The average Ln-O distance of 2 is longer than that of 5, being in accordance with the variation of the radius of the LnIII ions. Six cyanide ligands coordinate the FeIII ion in a distorted octahedral geometry, with normal Fe-C bond distances. Each Fe(CN)63- entity bridges a LnIII ions in a basically linear mode with C1-N1-Ln1 angles of 169.0(3)° for 2 and 169.9(4)° for 5, to form a dinuclear molecule (Figure 2a). The intramolecular Ln · · · Fe distance is 5.681(3) for 2 and 5.671(1) Å for 5. In the crystal structure, such dinuclear units and crystallization water molecules are linked together by O-H · · · N and O-H · · · O hydrogen bonds to form a 3D network (Figure 2b and c for 2; 5 has a different hydrogen-bonding linkage). Hydrogen bond parameters are listed in Tables 2S and 5S in Supporting Information. [Fe(CN)5(µ-CN)Ln(H2O)4(DMSO)3] · H2O [Ln ) SmIII (3), GdIII (4)]. Complexes 3 and 4 are isostructural and have a dinuclear structure similar to those of 2 and 5, with the only difference being in the coordination environments of LnIII ion. The molecular structure of 3 is shown in Figure 3a, and the selected bond distances and angles are listed in Table 6. In 3 and 4, the LnIII ion is also eight-coordinated, but to three DMSO and four water molecules, as well as one nitrogen atom of the bridging cyanide ligand. The distances of the Ln-O bonds range from 2.357(2) to 2.533(3) Å with an average of 2.419(2) Å for 3 and 2.3405(15) to 2.524(2) with an average of 2.398(2) Å for 4. However, there exists a Ln-O bond obviously longer than others, Ln(1)-O(2W) ) 2.533(3) Å in 3 and 2.524(2) Å in 4. The difference of average bond distances is coincident with the variation of the radius of the LnIII ions. The C1-N1-Ln1 angles are 161.4(3)° and 160.9(2)° for 3 and 4, respectively, and the intramolecular Ln · · · Fe distance is 5.547(2) Å for 3 and 5.514(3) Å for 4. Similarly, in the structure, these dinuclear molecules and crystallization water are contacted by hydrogen bonds to form a 3D network. The local hydrogen bond linkages are shown in Figure 3b for 3 and the 3D hydrogenbonded structure is in Figure 3c. Hydrogen bond parameters are listed in Tables 3S and 4S in Supporting Information. trans-[Fe(CN)4(µ-CN)2Ln(H2O)(DMSO)4]n [Ln ) ErIII (6), YbIII (7)]. Complexes 6 and 7 are isostructural and perform a 1D helical chain structure constructed by cyano-bridging Fe(CN)63- and Ln(H2O)(DMSO)43+ fragments. The structure of 7 is shown in Figure 4a, and the selected bond distances and angles of both are listed in Table 7. Different from those in 1-5, the LnIII in 6 and 7 is located in a slightly distorted pentagonal bipyramid coordination environment, formed by four DMSO molecules and one water molecules in equatorial plane and two nitrogen atoms in apical positions. In the equatorial plane, both the O-Ln-O angles and Ln-O distances fall in a narrow range, with the former being in 69.49(9)-75.60(10)° for 6 and 69.34(9)-75.20(9)° for 7, and the latter being 2.280(3)-2.305(2) Å for 6 and 2.255(3)-2.292(2) Å for 7. All of oxygen atoms are almost coplanar with a mean deviation of 0.140(3) Å for 6 and 0.1377(3) Å for 7, and the center LnIII ion deviates from this plane by 0.0318(2) Å for 6 and 0.0351(3) Å for 7. The trans axial coordination of two nitrogen atoms is also basically linear with the N-Ln-N angle of 167.0(1)° for 6 and 169.7(1)° for 7. The bridging cyanides coordinate to the

Complexes 15, 16, and 18 are isostructural, and the structure is composed of dinuclear [Fe(CN)5(µ-CN)Ln(H2O)3(TMSO)4] molecules and crystallization water molecules. The molecular structure of 15 is shown in Figure 8a, and the selected bond distances and angles for the three complexes are listed in Table 11.

The bridging cyanides coordinate to the LnIII ionsalsoinabasicallylinearfashionwiththeC(1)-N(1)-Ln(1) and C(2)-N(2)-Ln(1B) angles being 173.7(9)° and 175.3(9)°, 172.0(3)° and 177.2(3)°, and 172.0(3)° and 179.9(3)° for 19-21, respectively. In the crystal structure, these chains arrange paralleling along the a axis and connect with each other by O-H · · · N and O-H · · · O hydrogen bonds to form a 3D framework. The local hydrogen bond linkages are shown in Figure 10b on 19, and the 3D hydrogen-bonded structure is in Figure 10c. Hydrogen bond parameters are listed in Tables 19S-21S in Supporting Information. Structural Comparison and Discussion. The 21 complexes described above perform 10 types of compositions and structures (seven kinds of linkage modes as represented in Scheme 2), owing to the different ratios of coordinated water and sulfoxide ligands, and different bridging fashions of cyanide ligands. Table 14 also lists some structural features and parameters. For this system, it seems to be difficult to deduce an underlying relationship between the composition and structure of complex and used blocking ligand and lanthanide ion because most of other factors also have great effects. Namely, no general rule that controls the crystal structures could be deduced. For each system with the same blocking ligand, with the decrease of the ionic radius of LnIII from LaIII to YbIII, the coordination number lower, can be attributed to the steric hindrance of coordination groups around the metal center. Actually, the steric hindrance of blocking ligands pays the most important contribution to the structural differences of such complexes. In addition, the extensive H-bonding interactions should also be responsible for the molecular structures. It should also be pointed out that a polymorph of 2 can also be obtained by a ball-milling method.8 However, using this synthetic method, by tuning the dosage of blocking ligand DMSO, two NdIII-FeIII and SmIII-FeIII complexes with a 2D stairlike layer structure have been obtained.6d This indicates that, to some extent, the synthetic methods have great effect on the structure of products in this system. Conclusions In summary, we have synthesized 21 cyano-bridged LnIII-FeIII complexes with three structurally closely related monosulfoxide compounds as blocking ligands. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that such complexes have different compositions and structures, which to some extent can be attributed to the different sizes and shapes of three blocking ligands and different lanthanide ions, although a general opinion cannot be deduced, considering the complicacy of the complex formations in the self-assembly system. This work provides a start for next detailed magnetic investigations of these complexes. To date, the understanding of the magnetic interactions involving rareearth ions in molecular magnets is still a challenge, particularly when the contribution of the first-order orbital momentum is involved. Magnetic experiments are in progress for better understanding the nature of the 4f-3d magnetic interactions in the above-mentioned complexes. Acknowledgment.
