Abstract
The reaction of cis-[Cr([14]-decane)(OH2)2]+ ([14]-decane = rac-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-teraazacyclotetradecane) with auxiliary ligands {La = benzoate(bz) or chlorobenzoate(cbz)} leads to a new compound [Cr([14]-decane)(bz)2]ClO4 or [Cr([14]-decane)(cbz)2]ClO4. These complexes have been characterized by a combination of elemental analysis, conductivity, IR and Vis spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure of [Cr([14]-decane)(cbz)2]+ was determined. The complex shows a distorted octahedral coordination environment with the macrocycle adopting a folded cis-V conformation. The angle Naxial-Cr-Naxial deviates by 14.5o from the ideal value of 180o for a perfect octahedron. The bond angle cis-O-Cr-O between the Cr(III) ion and the two carboxylate oxygen atoms of the monodentate p-chlorobenzoate ligands is close to 90o. The FAB mass spectra of the cis-[Cr([14]-decane)(La)2]ClO4 display peaks due to the molecular ions [Cr([14]-decane)(bz)2-H]+, [Cr([14]-decane)(cbz)2-2H]+ at m/z 578, 646, respectively.
