X-Ray crystal structure analysis of the complex [Cu(tpth)(phen)(H2O)]n, where tpht is the dianion of terephthalic acid and phen is 1,10-phenanthroline showed that two crystallographically different, but chemically identical tpht ions with monodentately coordinated COO groups exist; both tpht ions act as bridging ligands forming zigzag chains. The Cu(II) ions are in a deformed trigonal bipyramidal environment consisting of two N atoms from phen, two O atoms from different tpht ligands and one O atom from coordinated H2O molecule. The crystal data are as follows: C20H14CuN2O5, Mr = 425.87 triclinic system, space group P 1, a = 9.007(5), b = 10.557(5), c = 11.554(5) Å, α= 114.343(5), β = 92.942(5), γ = 114.516(5) º, V = 877.3(7) Å3, Z = 2 F(000) = 434, ρx = 1.612 g cm-3, μ = 1.281 mm-1, R1 = 0.0280 for 4363 reflections with I gt 2σ(I), wR2 = 0.0785 for 5104 independent reflections and 254 refined parameters. Some of data were compared with isostructural Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes having the same ligands., Rendgenska strukturna analiza kompleksa [Cu(tpht)(phen)(H2O)]n, gde je tpht anjon tereftalne kiseline i phen je 1,10-fenantrolin, pokazala je da postoje dva kristalografski nezavisna, a hemijski identična tpht-jona, sa monodentatno koordiniranim COO-grupama; oba tpht-jona ponašaju se kao mostovni ligandi formirajući cik-cak lance. Cu(II)-joni su u deformisanom trigonalno-bipiramidalnom okruženju koje čine dva atoma N iz phen, dva atoma O iz različitih tpht-liganada i jedan atom O iz koordiniranog molekula H2O. Kristalografski podaci su sledeći: C20H14CuN2O5, Mr = 425,87, triklinični sistem, prostorna grupa P 1, a = 9,007(5), b = 10,557(5), c = 11,554(5) Å, α = 114,343(5), β = 92,942(5), γ = 114,516(5) º, V = 877,3(7) Å3, Z = 2, F(000) = 434, ρx = 1,612 g cm-3, μ = 1,281 mm-1, R1 = 0,0280 za 4363 refleksija sa I gt 2 σ(I), wR2 = 0,0785 za 5104 nezavisnih refleksija i 254 utačnjavana parametra. Neki podaci su upoređeni sa izostrukturnim Co(II) i Zn(II) kompleksima sa istim ligandima.

A series of nine ternary Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with some aromatic diamines and dianion of terephthalic acid (tpht) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR and diffuse-reflectance spectroscopy. All compounds were obtained as microcrystalline solids, stable in air and insoluble in common solvents. Two of them, [M(tpht)(dipya)(H2O)(2)]. 3H(2)O [M = Co(II), Ni(II); dipya = 2,2'-dipyridylamine], were obtained as single crystals and their crystal structures have been determined by X-ray structure analysis. Both structures consist of discrete [M(tpht)(dipya)(H2O)(2)](2+) complex units with two H2O molecules in the trans position. Three additional H2O molecules together with coordinated H2O and O atoms from COO groups make a three-dimensional network of hydrogen bonds. Terephthalato ligands are coordinated by only one COO group, which acts as a chelating ligand. Central metal ions are in a distorted octahedral environment. Based on the above-mentioned analysis and known crystal structures, the possible structures and geometry of the complexes are discussed. All Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes are pseudooctahedral and mononuclear, with only one of the tpht COO groups coordinated in a chelate mode. Cu(II) complexes have probably distorted octahedral geometry with bridging role of tpht ions and monodentate or strongly asymmetric coordination of COO groups.
