Abstract
The new ligands bis(pyrazol-1-yl)(pyridine-4-yl)methane (bpzm4py) (L1) and bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)(pyridine-4-yl)methane (bpz*m4py) (L2) were synthesized and were made to react with different metallic starting materials. In the case of Pd(II), chloride or allyl trinuclear complexes were synthesized, in which the central palladium is bonded to two ligands through the pyridine moiety. Mononuclear [Pd(allyl)L]X complexes were also isolated. On using other M(II) centers (M = Co, Ni, Zn), which could adopt an octahedral geometry, box-like cyclic dimers formed by the self-assembly of two metal centers and two ligands in a head-to-tail disposition were obtained. All metal ions exhibited a distorted octahedral geometry. A complex of Ag(I) with similar cyclic dimers connected through difluorophosphate anions to generate zigzag chains was also crystallized. The silver center was five-coordinate and the chain interactions gave rise to the formation of sheets. In the solid state, different noncovalent interacti...
