Controlling the symmetry of hexamonodentate 3d-transition metal complexes through symmetry propagation from high-symmetry Ti–Mo and Zr–Mo clusters via hydrogen-bonding interactions

Abstract

The symmetry of one of the simplest hexamonodentate complexes, [M(H2O)6]2+ (M = Fe, Co, Ni, and Zn), was controlled by tunining interactions in the second coordination sphere. Highly symmetric Ti–Mo...
