Abstract

The reaction of two η5-cyclopentadienyliron(II)-functionalized terephthalate and phthalate metalloligands, namely [(η5-C5H5)FeII(η6-1,4-HO2CC6H4CO2H)][(η5-C5H5)FeII(η6-1,4-HO2CC6H4CO2)][PF6] and [(η5-C5H5)FeII(η6-1,2-HO2CC6H4CO2H)][(η5-C5H5)FeII(η6-1,2-HO2CC6H4CO2)][PF6]—hereafter [H2 CpFeTP][HCpFeTP][PF6] and [H2 CpFeP][HCpFeP][PF6], respectively—with [UO2(NO3)2]·6H2O under hydrothermal conditions yielded four new coordination polymers; (1) [(UO2)F(HCpFeTP)(PO4H2)]·2H2O, (2) [(UO2)2(CpFeTP)4]·5H2O, (3) [(UO2)2F3(H2O)(CpFeP)], and (4) [H2 CpFeP][UO2F3]. The use of metalloligands has proven to be a viable route towards the incorporation of a secondary metal center into uranyl bearing materials. Depending upon the protonation state, the iron sandwich metalloligands may vary from zwitterionic neutral or monoanionic coordinating species as observed in compounds 1–3, or a positively charged species that hydrogen bonds with anionic [UO2F3]− chains as observed in 4. Further, the hydrolysis of the charge balancing PF6 − anion increases the diversity of UO2 2+ coordinating species by contributing both F− and PO4 3− anions (1, 3, 4). The luminescent properties of 1–4 were also studied and revealed the absence of uranyl emission, suggestive of a possible energy transfer from the uranyl cation to the iron(II) metal center.
