Magnesium Coordination Chemistry: A Case Study of Magnesium Carboxylate Complexes with Hexamethylenetetramine

Three magnesium coordination compounds were obtained to explore the influence of carboxylate anions on the pattern of the formed hydrogen bonds. For their synthesis, various salts of magnesium carboxylic acid (formate, acetate, and propionate) were utilized. As an <i>N</i>-donor ligand,...

description Three magnesium coordination compounds were obtained to explore the influence of carboxylate anions on the pattern of the formed hydrogen bonds. For their synthesis, various salts of magnesium carboxylic acid (formate, acetate, and propionate) were utilized. As an <i>N</i>-donor ligand, hexamethylenetetramine was employed. The supramolecular structures of the obtained compounds were determined and evaluated in Hirshfeld analysis. The length of the carbon chain of the used carboxylate anions has been proven to have a considerable impact on the self-organization of the supramolecular system by altering the three-dimensional net of the created hydrogen bonds. IR spectroscopy was used to characterize the obtained compounds, revealing significant differences between distinct systems. The thermal analysis of the investigated compounds also shows noticeable differences, demonstrating better stability of the systems containing formate anions.
