Ch. Yan et al., COORDINATION CHEMISTRY OF SCANDIUM .1. SYNTHESIS AND CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE OF SCANDIUM 6-COORDINATE GLYCINE COMPLEX [SC-2(GLY)(6)(CLO4)(6)](N), Polyhedron, 15(17), 1996, pp. 2895-2899
The title complex was synthesized in an aqueous solution of Sc(ClO4)(3
), and its crystal structure was determined by an X-ray diffraction me
thod. The complex has an infinite chain structure, built from dimeric
units. Two scandium ions are combined by three simple bridging carboxy
l groups from three glycine molecules. Only one type of bonding mode o
f the carboxyl groups is represented. Scandium exhibits an octahedral
configuration. (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd.
