Abstract
The pentadentate ligand 2,6-diacetylpyridinedisemicarbazone, DAPSC, reacts with Th(NO3)4 in ethanolwater mixture and a di-μ-hydroxo Th(IV) dimer is formed. The compound [Th2(OH)2(DAPSC)2(NO3)2(H2O)2](NO3)4·4H2O (I) is monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 10.705(1), b = 19.008(2), c = 11.782(1) Å, β = 107.82(2)°, V = 2282(1) Å3 and Z = 2. Detailed X-ray structural analysis showed that each thorium atom in the complex is coordinated to one pentadentate DAPSC ligand, which is subjected to a considerable distortion, one bidentate nitrate group, one water ligand and two bridging hydroxo groups. The coordination number is ten and the best presentation of the polyhedron is that of a distorted bicapped square antiprism. The ThTh separation is 4.0181(6) Å and the average ThO(H) bridge is 2.366 Å. The structure was refined using 3185 reflections to an R value of 5.0%.
