INTRODUCTION A new binuclear iron (III) complex has been synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical methods. The compound [Fe(oxalato)Cl2]3(3,5-dimethylpyrazole)2(3,5dimethylpyrazolium)2 has been prepared by slow evaporation at room temperature and its structure was elucidated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound has been characterized by IR and UV–visible spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry analysis. The oxalate group (dianion of the ethanedioic acid, ox2-) is a classical ligand in coordination chemistry and in magneto-structural studies, the negative charge and good donor ability due to the presence of four oxygen atoms make this ligand very attractive to build coordination polymers by chelating metallic cations. Oxalato-bridged complexes have been intensively studied because of the versatile abilities of the bidentate oxalate ligand to mediate magnetic coupling between paramagnetic metal centers separated by more 5Å [1-9]. To our best knowledge, there are many reports of oxalate bridged metal complexes with Cu, Cr or Co [10-14], but only few examples dealing the oxalato-bridged dinuclear iron complexes have been published [6]. Among these hybrid materials, the bimetallic oxalate-based networks have provided many examples of multifunctional compounds [7-9]. They are formed by polymeric anionic networks with magnetic ions linked through oxalate ligands with cooperative magnetic properties (ferro- ferri- or canted antiferromagnetism), and a bulky charge-compensating molecular cation, which templates the network formation and add a second physical property of interest [13-14]. The insertion of different cations into oxalate networks has led to compounds combining the longrange magnetic ordering from the oxalate network with a second property such as paramagnetism, antiferromagnetic [15-16] and ferromagnetic [17-18]. In crystal, the metal Fe (III) ions are six-coordinated by four oxygen atoms from two bischelating oxalate ligands and the two terminal Cl- ions. The crystal structure analysis reveals that the structure can be described as a succession 1-D anionic [Fe(ox2)Cl2]- zigzag chains parallel to the plane (001) which are inserted between them organic cation (C5H9N2)+ and molecules (C5H8N2). Structural cohesion is established essentially by π–π interactions between the rings of dimethylpyrazole and intermolecular N-H…Cl hydrogen bonds connecting the ionic entities and the organic cation, thus forming a threedimensional framework. The iron center in the complex undergoes quasi-reversible electrochemical oxidation at low potentials owing the stability of the as-prepared complex.

Up to now, a variety of complexes containing 3,5-dimethylpyrazole ligands have been synthesized and employed in coordination chemistry and organometallic chemistry [19-21]. There can be two advantages in using 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (Hdmpz) as a ligand, firstly, 3,5-dimethylpyrazole ligand has ability to form dative bond through one of the nitrogen lone pair [18-20], secondly, the free NH bond of the ring may be utilized to create a supramolecular environment through hydrogen bonding. Based on these principles, iron complex-containing oxalate anion has drawn attention. Our research has been directed to the preparation and characterization of mixed Fe(III) complexes using oxalate dianion and the Hdmpz nitrogen donor . In this paper, we reported its synthesis and structural characterization as well as the spectroscopic and electrochemical investigations of a new compound [Fe(ox)Cl2]3(C5H9N2)2(C5H8N2)2. 2. EXPERIMENTAL SECTION 2.1. Materials and physical measurements The X-ray data was collected on an Enraf-Nonius CAD-4 diffractometer. The FT-IR spectra were recorded from KBr pellets in the range 4000-400 cm-1 on a Mattson Alpha-Centauri spectrophotometer, and UV-visible spectrum was recorded on a Unico Spectro Quest 2802 UV/VIS spectrophotometer, in the range 250–800 nm. Voltammetric measurements were made with a computercontrolled electrochemical system (Autolab PGSTAT101). A platinum electrode with a surface area of 1 mm was used as a working electrode, a platinum wire served as the counter electrode and Ag/AgCl (KCl 3M) was used as the reference electrode. The electrochemical curves were recorded in 0.1 mol.L−1 tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate/acetonitrile (TBAF/ACN) as a supporting electrolyte solution in room temperature and the scan rate is 50 mVs-1. The solution was deoxygenated by bubbling nitrogen gas through them. 2.2. Synthesis of 3,5-dimethylpyrazole The 3,5-dimethylpyrazole [22] was synthesized by adopting the following method. Acetylacetone (3.12 g, 31.21 mmol) was added dropwise to hydrazine monohydrate (1 g, 20 mmol) in 50 ml of ethanol cooled to 0 °C. After the addition is complete, the mixture was stirred for 30 min, and the off-white solid was collected by filtration and recrystallized with petroleum ether. IR spectral (KBr pellet, ν/cm-1): 3200 (m), 1593(s), 1486(s) [m, medium; s, strong]. m.p. 100-102 °C . 1180 The 1H NMR spectral data of the free pyrazole showed one single signal for two methyl groups, i.e., they have the same environments, due to the fact that this moiety exists in the following two tautomeric forms. H3 C H3C 4 5 3 N H CH3 N 1 2 A 5 4 3 N 1 CH3 N2 B H Similarly, the 13C NMR spectral data of this ligand showed single signal for the carbon atom of both methyl groups, as well as single signal for carbon-3 and-5, again because both methyl groups and both carbon-3 and-5 have the same environments. 2.3. Synthesis of [Fe (ox) Cl2]3(3,5dimethylpyrazole)2(3,5-dimethylpyrazolium)2 An aqueous solution of 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (2.0 mmol) was added dropwise to aqueous solution of oxalic acid dehydrate (2.0 mmol) and FeCl3.6H2O (1.0 mmol). The resulting solution was then stirred for 2 h and allowed to evaporate at room temperature. After two months, green crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained. 2.4. X-ray Crystallography A parallelepiped crystal of compound (0.3×0.25×0.2 mm) was selected for the structural analysis. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, C2/c space group. Diffraction data were collected at 293(2) K with Enraf– Nonius CAD4 automatic four-circle equipped with graphite monochromator using MoKα (λ = 0.71073 Å) radiation. Unit-cell parameters and orientation matrix of 1 were determined by least-squares treatment of the setting angles of 25 reflections on the range 10°< θ <15°. Empirical absorption corrections were applied using the program. The structures were solved by Patterson methods and were refined with the full-matrix least-squares method on F2 267 refined parameters, with anisotropic thermal parameters for all non-hydrogen atoms. Lorentzpolarization and empirical absorption corrections through the Ψ-scan program were applied for the compound. The computations were performed with SHELXS 97 [23] and SHELXL 97 [24]. All non hydrogen atoms were treated anisotropically and the N-bound H atoms and CH2 were located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically. The molecular plots were drawn with the program Diamond 3.0 [25]. The summary of the crystal data, experimental details and refinement results for (1) is summarized in Table 1. © RECENT SCIENCE PUBLICATIONS ARCHIVES | October 2014|$25.00 | 27703814| *This article is authorized for use only by Recent Science Journal Authors, Subscribers and Partnering Institutions* International Journal of Chemical Engineering, ISSN:2051-6051, Vol.31, Issue.2 1181 Table 1 Crystal and structure refinement data for [Fe (ox)Cl2]3(C5H9N2)2(C5H8N2)2.

As far as we know, there are a few 1D Fe(III)-ox chain compounds reported up to now [6]. In these chains, the central atom of all anion is hexa-coordinated by two Cl- and four carboxilate-oxygen atoms from two bidentate oxalato ligands. The Fe-O (2.049-2.167 Å), Fe-Cl distances (2.296 to 2.333 Å) and the distance between the adjacent Fe atoms bridged by ox ligands is 5.48 Å range, are similar to those reported in oxalato-bridged iron(III) complexes in the literature [6,8,9]. 1.027 a wR [I > 2σ(I)] Fig.1.

Crystal structure Study of the oxalato-bridged heterobimetallic complex of formula [Fe(C2O4)Cl2]3(C5H8N2)2(C5H9N2)2 is performed .The title compound tri(dichloro bisoxalatoferrate(III))di(3,5dimethyl-1H-pyrazole)di(3,5-dimethyl-4H-pyrazolium), is formed by the [Fe2(C2O4)2Cl4]2- anion complex, (C5H9N2) + cation and (C5H8N2) neutral molecule as showed in Figure 1. The anion is generated by a crystallographic axis and the inversion center. The middle of the binding C3C3i oxalate group is located on an inversion center and the iron atom (Fe2) is located on a two fold axis. Fig.2. View of the molecular structure of [Fe(ox)Cl2]3(C5H9N2)2(C5H8N2)2, showing the hydrogen bonds between the chains. The best equatorial planes around the Fe1 and Fe2 atoms are defined by the (O2, O3, O6 and Cl2) and (O4, O7, O4ii and Cl4) respectively. The largest deviation from the mean plan is 0.0182 Å of Fe1. The distortion from the ideal octahedral geometry of the metal Fe1 environment is due to the reduced angle of the oxalate ligand [values varying in the range 77.9(1)-161.3(1) Å]. Selected bond distances and angles for each octahedron are given in Table 2. © RECENT SCIENCE PUBLICATIONS ARCHIVES | October 2014|$25.00 | 27703814| *This article is authorized for use only by Recent Science Journal Authors, Subscribers and Partnering Institutions* International Journal of Chemical Engineering, ISSN:2051-6051, Vol.31, Issue.2 1182 Table 2 Selected bond lengths (Å) and angles (°) for [FeO4Cl2].

The bond length values of the peripheral and inner C-O bonds compare well with those reported for other oxalate complexes, the shorter values being due to the greater double bond character of the free C-O bonds [26]. centroid–centroid distance between two adjacent organic rings of 3,5-dimethylpyrazole, Cg1..Cg1= 4.986Å Cg1 is the centroid of the N1-N2-C10-C11-C12 (Fig. 3). The Hdmpz ligands are planar and the average C–C (1.487Å), C–N (1.359Å) and N-N (1.356Å) bond lengths, and the average angles (110°) within the rings are in good agreement with those currently given in the literature for Hdmpz-coordinated metal complexes [27-30]. Based on the structural description, between the 1-D anionic chains are the 3,5-dimethylpyrazolium cations and the 3,5-dimethylpyrazole neutral molecules, forming a cationic zigzag chains. Within each cationic layer, the 3,5dimethylpyrazolium are placed face-to-face giving rise to π-π interactions between such cycles. The cohesion between cationic layers is assumed by π–π stacking interactions established between parallel cations leads to chains along the crystallographic c axis. The Fig.3.

The N-H…Cl hydrogen bonds are located between uncoordinated pyrazole molecules N4 as donor atoms and chlore acceptor atoms Cl1 from anion complex. Fig. 4. Fragments of the molecular structure of [Fe(ox)Cl2]3(C5H9N2)2(C5H8N2)2 showing hydrogen bonding interactions. 1183 located at 520 and 462 cm−1 are assigned to ν(Fe-O) and ν(Fe-Cl), respectively[32]. 3.4. Electronic transition spectrum Electronic spectroscopic data (Fig. 5) for the compound was obtained from an aqueous solutions. The choice of solvent is necessary to avoid interference with any phenomenon to mask the desired properties. The solvent used for the study is the same as that already used for the preparation. First we examined the spectroscopic properties of solution containing iron in the form of Fe(Cl3).6H2O . The appearance of a band at 260 nm accompanied by a slight bathochromic shift is mainly observed, this is characteristic of the formation of a complex where the ferric ion is hexacoordinate. The absorption spectra of the complexe (1) show bands in 261 nm that band can be attributed probably to oxalate-to- FeIII charge transfer [33]. The high-frequency absorption bands at 281 nm is assigned as π–π* transitions of the Hdmpz ligand [34-35]. In the bibliography, intense band (not shown) is found at 200 nm, which can be assigned to Hdmpz n–π* [36]. For a complex of Co (III), these transitions are due to the excitonic effect under the π band of Hdmpz [37]. The presence of intermolecular N-H…Cl interactions adds a new dimension to the crystal structure of the complex which may thus be described as an overall 3-D supramolecular network.

The split bands are generally characteristic of the bidentate oxalate groups as terminal ligands [31]. The two peaks The cyclic voltammogram shows two oxidation and two reduction peaks related of the ion complex redox activity. The thermodynamic data are gathered in Table 4. Fig.5.

Cyclic voltammogram of [Fe(ox)Cl2]3(C5H9N2)2(C5H8N2)2 obtained in TBAF-ACN at 298 K (scan rate 50 mVs-1). The E1ox and E2red located at E1/2=30 mV are related to the redox activity of the fer(III). The oxidation of iron occurs at low potential due to the formation of very stable iron/oxalate complex [38,40]. Moreover, the peak-to-peak separation 110 mV and ired-to-iox ratio is close to the unity are consistent with monoelectronic quasi-reversible iron system [39,40]. The two other irreversible peaks could be attributed to oxidation the N-H group and the reduction of the NH2+ group form respectively from the pyrazole and pyrazolium moieties. 4. CONCLUSION In conclusion, this paper describes a new binuclear oxalate-bridged iron (III) complex of 3,5dimethylpyrazole ligands have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. X-ray studies showed that complexes have binuclear structures, in which iron(III) centers are bridged with oxalate dianion oxygen’s. The iron-iron separation is 5.48 Å. In addition to π–π interactions between the rings of 3,5dimethylpyrazole groups, the cations and chloride are connected through hydrogen bonds into a 3D supramolecular framework. Uv-vis and IR spectroscopy we confirmed the oxidation state and to elucidate the coordination sphere of the iron. 5.
