Abstract
The crystal structures of sparteinium tetrachlorocuprate monohydrate [(C15H28N2)CuCl4·H2O], 1 and sparteinium tetrabromocuprate monohydrate [(C15H28N2)CuBr4·H2O], 2, were determined. The structures of 1 [orthorhombic, P212121, a = 8.3080(10) A, b = 14.6797(19) A and c = 16.4731(17) A], and 2 [orthorhombic, P212121, a = 8.4769(7) A, b = 15.166(3) A and c = 16.679(3) A], are composed of a doubly protonated sparteinium cation, [C15H28N2]2+, a discrete CuX4 2? anion (X = Cl? or Br?), and one water molecule. These monomeric compounds are stabilized through various types of hydrogen bonding interaction in their packing structures. Crystal 2 exhibits weak anti-ferromagnetism (J = -3.24 cm?1) as opposed to the magnetically isolated paramagnetism observed for 1. The results of comparative magneto-structural investigations of 1 and 2 suggest that the pathway for the weak anti-ferromagnetic super-exchange in 2 might be through a Cu-BrBr-Cu contact.
