Abstract
A novel lanthanide complex of [Nd(2-EOBA)3(phen)(H2O)]2 · H2O (2-EOBA = 2-ethoxylbenzoate, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n with a = 14.7453(18) Å, b = 12.3628(15) Å, c = 19.473(2) Å, α = 90°, β = 93.349(2)°, γ = 90°. Two Nd3+ ions are connected together by two bridging 2-EOBA ligands and each Nd3+ ion is further coordinated by two chelating 2-EOBA ligands, one chelating phen molecule and one water molecule. The coordination number of Nd3+ ion is nine. The coordination geometry of Nd3+ ion is a distorted monocapped square-antiprism.
