Abstract
The crystal and molecular structures of the [PrIII(nta)(H2O)2]·H2O (nta = nitrilotriacetic acids), K3[GdIII(nta)2(H2O)]·6H2O, and K3[YbIII(nta)2]·5H2O complexes have been determined by single-crystal X-ray structure analyses. In [PrIII(nta)(H2O)2]·H2O, the PrIIINO8 part forms a nine-coordinate pseudo-monocapped square antiprismatic structure in which one N and three O atoms are from one nta ligand in the same molecule, three O atoms from another nta ligand in the neighboring molecule and two O atoms from two coordinate water molecules. In K3[GdIII(nta)2(H2O)]·6H2O, the [GdIII(nta)2(H2O)3- complex anion has a nine-coordinate pseudo-monocapped square antiprismatic structure in which each nta acts as a tetradentate ligand with one N atom of the amino group and three O atoms of the carboxylic groups. In K3[YbIII(nta)2]·5H2O, each nta also acts as a tetradentate ligand with one N atom of amino group and three O atoms of the carboxylic groups, but the [YbIII(nta)2 3- complex anion has an eight-coordinate structure with a distorted square antiprismatic prism. All the results including those for [TmIII(nta)(H2O)2]·2H2O confirm the inferences on the coordinate structures and coordination numbers of rare earth metal complexes with the nta ligand.
