Abstract
The compartmental [1+1] macrocycle H3L, obtained by self-condensation of the formyl precursor 3,3'-(3,6-dioxaoctane-1,8-diyldioxy)bis(2-hydroxybenzaldehyde) with the amine precursor N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl)-2-hydroxybenzylamine, contains one inner ON3O2 Schiff base and one outer O2O4 crown-like chamber. According to the experimental conditions it forms, by a template process, the stable mononuclear complexes Ln(H3L)(Cl)(2)(CH3COO)center dot nS center dot mHCl or [Ln(L)center dot nS (Ln = La, Lu, Y, Yb, Er, Dy, Tb, Gd, Eu, Ce) with the lanthanide(III) ion encapsulated in the crown - ether-like and in the Schiff base site. The mononuclear complexes Ln(H3L)(Cl)(2)-(CH3COO)center dot nS center dot mHCl, by further complexation with a different lanthanide(III) ion, give rise to the related heterodinuclear complexes [LnLn'(L)(Cl)(2)(CH3COO)center dot nS while the homodinuclear and the heterodinuclear complexes [Ln(2)(L)](Cl)(3)center dot nH(2)O and [LnLn'(L)](Cl)(3)center dot nS could be prepared by a template reaction using the appropriate molar ratio of reactants. Their properties have been studied by using SEM-EDS microscopy, IR and NMR spectroscopy and their compositions confirmed by thermal and ESI-Mass spectrometric analyses. In the heterodinuclear complexes, the site occupancy of the different lanthanide(III) ions was determined by H-1 and C-13 NMR spectioscopy in CD3OD or (CD3)(2)SO - it was found that heterodinuclear complexation occurs in methanol with the smaller lanthanide(III) ion mainly coordinating to the Schiff base site and the larger lanthanide(Ill) ion to the crown site whereas, in dimethyl sulfoxide, demetalation of the weaker coordinated lanthanide(III) ion into the crown ether chamber occurs with the subsequent formation of mononuclear species in solution.
