Abstract
Abstract Two flexible ligands derived from iminodiacetic acid, N-methlyiminodiacetic acid (H2mida) and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetic acid (H2hida) have been used as ligands towards lanthanide ions. Potentiometric studies (25.0 °C, 0.50 mol L−1 Me4NCl) revealed the predominance of stable species at acidic pH values. With this information, the synthesis of the coordination compounds was afforded in aqueous solution and the polymeric solids [Sm(Hmida)2(H2O)2]ClO4·1/6NaClO4·9H2O and [Ln(hida)(H2O)2](F3CSO3)·H2O (Ln = Ho, Yb) were prepared and characterized. The samarium compound consists of a cationic 2D polymeric structure in which the ligand is protonated in the N atom, preventing coordination to the central atom. The structure presents channels along one crystallographic direction. Ho and Yb coordination compounds are isostructural. A 2D polymeric cationic network is also observed. In this case, the additional hydroxyethyl group and the unprotonated N atom participate in the coordination.
