Alkaline earth metal trichloroacetates M(O2CCCl 3)2·nH2O where M = Be (1), n = 4; M = Mg (2), n = 6; M = Ca (3) or Sr (4) or Ba (5), n = 4 were synthesized by reacting BeSO4 with hydrated barium trichloroacetate for 1 and neutralization of respective metal carbonates with trichloroacetic acid for 2-5. The desired products were characterized by elemental analysis, physiochemical studies, FT-IR, 13C NMR and single crystal X-ray studies (in case of 2, 3 and 4). The spectroscopic data reveals bidentate bridging CCl3COO groups and coordinated water molecules in Be(O2CCl3) 2·4H2O. The compound 2 crystallizes in triclinic crystal system with space group, P1̄. The crystal structure reveals that magnesium cation is coordinated to six water molecules with regular octahedral geometry. All water molecules are involved in hydrogen bonding with oxygens of CCl3CO2 groups in 2. The compounds 3 and 4 are isostructural and each compound crystallizes in monoclinic crystal system with space group, P21/c, having similar cell parameters and showing the same spatial arrangement. The central metal ions are octacoordinated in 3 and 4. The bridging trichloroacetate ligand in 3 and 4 results in the formation of polymeric chains giving rise to 1D infinite polymers. Similar environment is anticipated around barium cation in 5 as that of metal ion in 3 or 4 on the basis of similar physiochemical and spectroscopic results.

Abstract
Alkaline earth metal trichloroacetates M(O2CCCl 3)2·nH2O where M = Be (1), n = 4; M = Mg (2), n = 6; M = Ca (3) or Sr (4) or Ba (5), n = 4 were synthesized by reacting BeSO4 with hydrated barium trichloroacetate for 1 and neutralization of respective metal carbonates with trichloroacetic acid for 2-5. The desired products were characterized by elemental analysis, physiochemical studies, FT-IR, 13C NMR and single crystal X-ray studies (in case of 2, 3 and 4). The spectroscopic data reveals bidentate bridging CCl3COO groups and coordinated water molecules in Be(O2CCl3) 2·4H2O. The compound 2 crystallizes in triclinic crystal system with space group, P1̄. The crystal structure reveals that magnesium cation is coordinated to six water molecules with regular octahedral geometry. All water molecules are involved in hydrogen bonding with oxygens of CCl3CO2 groups in 2. The compounds 3 and 4 are isostructural and each compound crystallizes in monoclinic crystal system with space group, P21/c, having similar cell parameters and showing the same spatial arrangement. The central metal ions are octacoordinated in 3 and 4. The bridging trichloroacetate ligand in 3 and 4 results in the formation of polymeric chains giving rise to 1D infinite polymers. Similar environment is anticipated around barium cation in 5 as that of metal ion in 3 or 4 on the basis of similar physiochemical and spectroscopic results.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
