NEW TRANSITION METAL OXALATO COMPLEXES WITH DABCOH22+ AS ADVERSE CATION: SYNTHESIS AND INFRARED STUDY

<p>On allowing DABCOH₂(HC₂O₄)₂ to react with transition metal dihalides in ethanol, a new series of complexes of general formula M(oxalate)₂ DABCOH₂²⁺. nDABCOH₂²⁺.2X^- (n=1/2;1) have been obtained. When (n=1) a dimeric structure is suggested, the two monomeric species being hold together by biprotonated DABCO through N-H…O hydrogen bonds. In the case of the complex M(oxalate)₂DABCOH₂²⁺.1/2 DABCOH₂²⁺.2X^--M = Ni, Cu- the structure is an infinite chain. The environment around the metallic centers is octahedral or square pyramidal. The oxalate behaves as a monochelating and hydrogen bonds involved ligand or is only concerned by hydrogen bonds.</p>
