Varying Structure‐Directing Anions in Uranyl Ion Complexes with Ni(2,2′ : 6′,2′′‐terpyridine‐4′‐carboxylate) ₂

2,2′ : 6′,2“-Terpyridine-4′-carboxylic acid (tpycH) reacts with uranyl cations under solvo-hydrothermal conditions to give [UO2(tpyc)2] ⋅ 2H2O (1), a monoperiodic polymer different from that previously reported. In the additional presence of NiII cations, Ni(tpyc)2 “expanded ligand” is formed and structure its complexes cation depends on anions present. [(UO2)2F4(H2O)2Ni(tpyc)2] (2) [UO2(mds)(H2O)Ni(tpyc)2] (3), where mds2− methanedisulfonate, are polymers in which fluoride bridging chelating. [(UO2)4(NO3)2(H2O)4Ni5(tpyc)10](CF3SO3)4(NO3)2 7H2O (4) crystallizes as wide nearly planar ribbon. [(UO2)2(NO3)2(chdc)Ni(tpyc)2] chdcH2 2CH3CN (5), chdc2− trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate, chain including both ligands, chains being further assembled into layers through hydrogen bonding molecules. Finally, [UO2Ni2(tpyc)4](I3)2 (6) diperiodic network sql topology. These results point possibility modulating cationic ion addition range or non-bonding anions.
