Abstract:

The reaction of neodymium nitrate and 4-tert-butyl-benzoic acid (tBBAH) in aqueous solution yielded the dinuclear title complex, [Nd(2)(C(11)H(13)O(2))(6)(C(11)H(14)O(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], which has non-crystallographic C(i) symmetry. The two Nd(III) ions are linked by two bridging and two bridging-chelating tBBA ligands with an Nd⋯Nd separation of 4.0624 (5) Å. Moreover, each Nd(III) ion is coordinated by one chelating tBBA ion, one monodentate tBBAH ligand and one water mol-ecule. The nine-coordinated Nd(III) ion is in a distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic environment. The mol-ecules are linked into infinite chains along the c axis by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Three of the tert-butyl groups are disordered over two sets of sites with equal occupancies.
