The binuclear title compound, [Hf2(C5HF6O2)6(OH)2]·C3H6O, contains an HfIV atom which is eight coordinated and surrounded by three chelating β-diketonato 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexa­fluoro­acetyl­acetonate (hfaa) ligands and two bridging OH groups situated on a twofold rotation axis. The HfO8 coordination polyhedron shows a slightly distorted Archimedean square anti-prismatic coordination with average Hf—O, C—O, C—CMe distances of 2.19 (2), 1.26 (2) and 1.49 (2) Å, respectively, and an O—Hf—O bite angle of 75.3 (5)°. Weak O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding inter­actions are observed between one of the bridging hydr­oxy groups and the disordered solvent mol­ecule.

This study was done as part of ongoing research into the reactions of O,O'- and O,N-bidentate ligands with hafnium(IV) and zirconium(IV). If hafnium and zirconium show differences in their chelating behaviour, either by reaction rates, solubilities, coordination modes, equilibrium behaviour, etc., it could possibly be exploited as a novel separation technique for the two metals. A wide range of volatile tetrakis-diketonato metal complexes have been prepared by Zherikova et al. (2005, 2006a,b) to be used for the preparation of hafnium dioxide films and oxide coatings.

Colourless crystals of the title compound crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system (C2/c, Z=4) (Figure 1) with four acetone solvent molecules in the unit cell. The monoclinic structure of the solvent-free compound earlier reported by Zherikova et al. (2006a) cannot be superimposed with the title compound due to differences in metal coordination. Hexafluoroacetylacetonato hafnium(IV) is one of very few complexes which is not isostructural to its zirconium counterpart. Literature revealed that Zr(hfaa)4 has a monomeric structure with a slightly distorted antiprismatic coordination polyhedron about the zirconium atom. The metal complex of the title compound consists of a HfIV atom which is eight-coordinated and surrounded by three hfaa ligands and two bridging OH-groups thereby adopting a slightly distorted Archimedean anti-prismatic coordination geometry (Figure 2). The dimer skeleton exhibits a flat diamond-like structure with Hf—O7, Hf—O8 and Hf—Hfidistances of 2.113 (7), 2.091 (7) and 3.5130 (7) Å, respectively, and a bite angle of 66.6 (4)°. The hexafluoroacetylacetonato ligands form three six-membered metallocycles with average Hf—O, C—O, C—CMe distances of 2.19 (2) Å, 1.256 (15) Å and 1.485 (16) Å respectively, and an O—Hf—O bite angle of 75.3 (5)° (Table 1). In the title structure the dimer units are connected by Van der Waals interactions between different F atoms (Figure 3) to produce a three dimensional network, where the average F···F distances are 2.9 (2) Å. Lastly, weak hydrogen bonding interactions are observed between one of the bridging hydroxy groups (O7—H7) and the solvent molecule (Table 2). The opposing hydroxy group (O8—H8) does not show any hydrogen interactions, probably due to packing effects.

Experimental top

Chemicals were purchased from Sigma and Aldrich and used as received. Hexafluoroacetylacetone (450 µL, 3.3 mmol) was added drop-wise to a suspension of HfCl4 (241 mg, 0.75 mmol) in toluene (10 ml). The dissolution turned into a slightly white solution after 20 min. After refluxing for ca. 12 h, the crude product was filtered and evaporated via vacuum. Colourless crystals were obtained after re-crystallization in acetone at 253 K. The compound crystallized out as a colourless substance. (Yield: 408 mg, 43%) Spectroscopy data: 1H NMR (acetone-d6): δ = 6.59 (s, H),7.29 (s, H); IR (ATR): ν(CO)= 1553 cm-1.

Refinement top

The aromatic, methine, and methyl H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions (C—H = 0.93–0.98) and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic and methine, and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl protons. Torsion angles for methyl protons were refined from electron density. The highest residual electron density lies within 0.84 Å from F1B. Two of the CF3 groups are disordered over two positions each, and the anisotropic displacement parameters for these disordered groups were refined using similarity restraints. The acetone solvent molecule is disordered over two equal positions. The symmetry-related acetone is generated by the symmetry operator 1 - x, y, 1/2 - z, resulting in one full-occupancy disordered solvent.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
