A coordination chemistry study of hydrated and solvated cationic vanadium ions in oxidation states +III, +IV, and +V in solution and solid state.

ABSTRACT: The coordination chemistry of hydrated and solvated vanadium(III), oxovanadium(IV), and dioxovanadium(V) ions in the oxygen-donor solvents water, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and N,N'-dimethylpropyleneurea (DMPU) has been studied in solution by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and large-angle X-ray scattering (LAXS) and in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and EXAFS. The hydrated vanadium(III) ion has a regular octahedral configuration with a mean V-O bond distance of 1.99 Å. In the hydrated and DMSO-solvated oxovanadium(IV) ions, vanadium binds strongly to an oxo group at ca. 1.6 Å. The solvent molecule trans to the oxo group is very weakly bound, at ca. 2.2 Å, while the remaining four solvent molecules, with a mean V-O bond distance of 2.0 Å, form a plane slightly below the vanadium atom; the mean O?V-O(perp) bond angle is ca. 98°. In the DMPU-solvated oxovanadium(IV) ion, the space-demanding properties of the DMPU molecule leave no solvent molecule in the trans position to the oxo group, which reduces the coordination number to 5. The O?V-O bond angle is consequently much larger, 107°, and the mean V?O and V-O bond distances decrease to 1.58 and 1.97 Å, respectively. The hydrated and DMSO-solvated dioxovanadium(V) ions display a very distorted octahedral configuration with the oxo groups in the cis position with a mean V?O bond distance of 1.6 Å and a O?V?O bond angle of ca. 105°. The solvent molecules trans to the oxo groups are weakly bound, at ca. 2.2 Å, while the remaining two have bond distances of 2.02 Å. The experimental studies of the coordination chemistry of hydrated and solvated vanadium(III,IV,V) ions are complemented by summarizing previously reported crystal structures to yield a comprehensive description of the coordination chemistry of vanadium with oxygen-donor ligands.

Project description:The structures of the solvated copper(II) ion in water and nine organic oxygen donor solvents with similar electron-pair donor ability, but with different space-demanding properties at coordination, have been studied by EXAFS. N,N'-Dimethylpropyleneurea and N,N,N',N'-tetramethylurea are sufficiently space demanding at coordination to make the axial positions not accessible, resulting in square-planar copper(II) solvate complexes with an intense green color. The mean Cu-O bond distances in these two solvate complexes are 1.939(3) and 1.935(3) Å, respectively. The best fits of the remaining solvates, which are light blue in different hues, are obtained with a Jahn-Teller distorted-octahedral model consisting of four strongly bound solvent molecules in the equatorial positions at 1.96(2) Å and two in the axial positions but with different Cu-Oax bond distances: ca. 2.15 and 2.32 Å. This is in agreement with observations in solid-state structures of compounds containing hexaaquacopper(II) complexes crystallizing in noncentrosymmetric space groups and all reported crystal structures containing a [Cu(H2O)5(O-ligand)] complex with Jahn-Teller distortion. Such a structure is in agreement with previous EPR and EXAFS studies proving the hydrated copper(II) ion to be a noncentrosymmetric complex in aqueous solution. The refinements of the EXAFS data of the solids [Cu(H2O)6](ClO4)2, [Cu(H2O)6](BrO3)2, [Cu(H2O)6]SiF6, Cu(NO3)2·2.5H2O, and CuSO4·5H2O gave Cu-O bond distances significantly different from those reported in the crystallographic studies but similar to the configuration and bond distances in the hydrated copper(II) ion in aqueous solution. This may depend on whether the orientation of the axial positions is random in one or three dimensions, giving a mean structure of the solid with symmetry higher than that of the individual complexes. This study presents the very first experimental data from the new X-ray absorption spectroscopy beamline Balder at the MAX IV synchrotron radiation facility in Lund, Sweden, as well as the utilized properties of the beamline.
