Abstract

New heterometallic complexes of Nd(III) and Co(II) based on ethylenediaminetetraacetic and ethylenediaminedisuccinic acids have been synthesized. The complexes studied by electron absorption spectroscopy, IR-spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The influence of a number of factors on the properties and structure of heteronuclear complexes is discussed. The spectral characteristics of homonuclear and heteronuclear complexes are compared. A theoretical analysis of the geometry of Co(II) and Nd(III) complexes with ethylenediaminesuccinic acid was carried out by the semi-empirical PM7 method. It has been shown that the f-d-complexes are of the folded type, in which the ligand-complexone realizes the maximum denticity to Nd(III), and the Co(II) coordination sphere is formed by bridging edta/edds carboxyl groups and intrasphere water molecules. The Co(II) coordination polyhedron corresponds to a distorted octahedron, and the Nd(III) coordination polyhedron corresponds to a one-capped square antiprism (C4v) with the coordination number Nd(III)=8. During study fixed that heterometallic complexes have the same structure in solutions and in the solid state.
