A single-strand polymer of hexacoordinated zinc(II) phosphodiester complex

Electroactive poly zinc, cadmium, manganese ferrocenylphenylphosphinates

“…The two modes of bridging have also been found in related poly Zinc(II) (dialkyl)phosphates [9][10][11][12] (see Scheme 1).…”

“…The coordination number of the metal is usually four; however, it can reach six in the presence of coordinating substituents in the organic chain of the phosphonates [13] or by coordination of solvent molecules [11,14]. The mode of coordination of the phosphinate groups involves always the coordination of one oxygen to one metal, even if the linkage of one oxygen to two metals, currently observed for metal phosphonates [15], has been postulated in some cases to explain the six-fold coordination of the metal [13,16].…”

Crystal structure and molecular stereochemistry of polymeric Cu2(DMP)4(DMSO) as a platform for phosphate diester binding

“…www.crt-journal.org polymeric [34] heterometallic complexes have been reported in which the phosphate moieties adopt monodentate, chelating, and bridging dispositions [35]. Moreover, in addition to phosphate and phosphate ester complexes, compounds incorporating nucleic acid fragments, adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP), polyphosphates, and polyphosphate esters have been structurally characterized [36][37][38].…”

Crystal Structure and Molecular Stereochemistry of Novel Polymeric Cu2(DMP)44(DMSO) as a Platform for Phosphate Diester Binding

“…[9][10][11][12] A wide range of metal complexes with a variety of central metal ions such as d-block transition metals [5][6][7][8][9][10]12 and lanthanides 11,12 are applied to investigate phosphate ester bonds. Different Mononuclear, [13][14][15] binuclear, [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] trinuclear, 28,29 tetranuclear [30][31][32][33] and polymeric 34 heterometallic complexes bearing monodentate, chelating, and bridging phosphate moieties are being examined in order to find metal binding properties of such ligands and to elucidate the importance of these interactions in biological systems. 35 To the best of our knowledge, there are only a few papers on the complexation of DMP to the transition metals such as copper, nickel, and iron.…”
