Abstract
Procedures are given for the preparation and isolation of cis-[Cr(mal)(bpy) (H2O)(2)][NO3]. 3H(2)O (I) and trans-[Cr(mal)(bpy)(H2O)(2)][NO3].H2O (II) ( H(2)mal = malonic acid, bpy - 2,2'-bipyridine). The single crystals X-ray s tructure of cis-compound reveals that the cations and anions as well as cat ions between cations are linked into hydrogen-bonded chains. Unfortunately, little structural information is available for the trans compound II (only isotropic cation refinement), nevertheless, from this result is observed t hat there also exists a hydrogen-bonded network between anion units. Therma l analysis and magnetic behaviour for both compounds were studied. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
