Abstract
Praseodymium(III) 2-furanocarboxylate dihydrate is monoclinic, space group P21/c. The lattice parameters area a = 10.349(2). b = 16.727(3), c = 9.458(1) Å, β = 92.61(1)°. The crystal structure was solved and refined by a full-matrix least-squares method to R = 0.034 and Rw = 0.039 from 2333 reflections. Carboxylic ions bond in the complex as bidentates and as bi- and terdentate-bridging ligands. The water molecules bond to the metal. The coordination number of the praseodymium atom is nine. The coordination polyhedron is intermediate between a distorted tricapped trigonal prism and a distorted monocapped square antiprism.Keywords
