Synthesis, crystal structure, and vibrational spectra of the complex maleic acid•2H2O•18-crown-6
A stoichiometric complex of formula maleic acid•2H2O•18-crown-6 has been obtained from maleic acid and the macrocyclic polyether 18-crown-6. Crystals of this complex have been shown by X-ray diffraction crystallography to belong to the Cc space group of the monoclinic system. The acid molecules in the adduct are linked to each other through a water molecule, giving infinite [-acid-H2O-]n chains. They are also linked to the crown ether via water molecules. The infrared and Raman spectra of the complex are presented and compared to those of crystalline maleic acid. Keywords: maleic acid/18-crown-6, structure, X-ray, spectra.
