Co(II) complexes with azamacrocyclic ligands were entrapped in the nanocavity of zeolite-Y by a two-step process in the liquid phase: (i) adsorption of [bis(diamine)cobalt(II)], [Co(N–N)₂]-NaY, in the supercages of the zeolite, and (ii) in situ condensation of the cobalt(II) precursor complex with diethyloxalate. The new host/guest nanocomposite materials (HGNM) have been characterized by FTIR, DRS and UV-Vis spectroscopic techniques, XRD and elemental analysis, as well as nitrogen adsorption. These complexes (neat and HGNM) were used for epoxidation of styrene with O₂ as oxidant in different solvents. Electronic spectra of the reaction mixture indicated oxidation proceeds through a free radical mechanism.     

Chloro complexes of cobalt(II) in aprotic solvents: stability and structural modifications due to solvent effect

Cobalt(II) chloro complexes were studied in aprotic solvents, namely, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), dimethylformamide (DMF), and propylene carbonate (PC). The measurements were performed spectrophotometrically in UV–visible–IR region at 25°C and at constant ionic strength: I = 1 mol L^?1 in DMSO and DMF, and 0.1 mol L^?1 in PC. Different models were tested and the model 1 Elleb, M, Meullemeestre, J, Schwing, MJ and Vierling, F. 1980. Inorg.

The Effect of the Electron Density Distribution of Guest on the Entropy Change During Complex Formation of Calix[6]arene Hexasulfonate Host with ortho- and para-cresols as Guests

The π–π interaction-based inclusion complexation of calix[6 Danil de Namor, A. F., Cleverly, R. M. and Zapata-Ormachea, M. L. 1998. Chem. Rev., 98: 2495[Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]arene hexasulfonate as host with neutral aromatic guest molecules was studied in aqueous media. To vary the distribution of electron density on the guest's aromatic rings, the phenol parent compound was substituted in the para- or ortho- positions with CH₃ group. To study the interaction between calixarene and the guests, PL, DSC and quantum-chemical methods were used. The results indicate 1:1 stoichiometry of the formed host-guest complexes. Although the enthalpy change during complex formation of calixarene with p- or o-cresol are the same, the Gibbs free energy change is significantly higher in the case of calixarene—o-cresol complexes. This property is due to the unexpected entropy change during the complex formation. Using molecular dynamic calculations, a guest-induced redistribution of the electron density on the calixarene rings, followed by the restructuring of the solvent molecules was identified as a background of this unexpected entropy change at molecular level.

CYCLIC PHOSPHONITRILIC COMPOUNDS BEARING ─N═PCl3 GROUP AS HOMOGENOUS CATALYST TOWARDS THE SILANOL CONDENSATION

Condensation reactions of 1,1,3,3,3 pentamethyldisiloxane-ol (MDH), in toluene catalysed by two[9.5pc] types of phosphonitrilic catalyst bearing a phosphazene ─N═PCl₃, were studied using sampling and gas chromatographic analysis method. The condensation kinetics reactions were compared for both phosphazene compounds. The process is selective, leading to linear decamethyltetrasiloxane MD₂M, (where D denotes the dimethylsiloxane unit and M denotes the trimethyloxysilane unit) as almost the exclusive primary product.

Mesomorphic and fluorescent properties have been modified by various chemical moieties. Among others, terminal fluoroalkyl and/or chiral chains were introduced to stabilise mesophases and support the formation of polar phases. In spite of the bent shape due to the central 1,3-diphenylbenzo[c]thiophene unit, all compounds exhibit phases typical for the rod-like LC: nematic, smectic A and smectic C or their chiral analogues using the chiral (S)-C₂H₅CH(CH₃)(CH₂)₆CO or (S)-C₁₀H₂₁OCH(CH₃)CO chain. The orientational order in the nematic phase was studied by polarised infrared measurements. The fluorescent properties of the studied compounds have been measured and their parameters established.     

Synthesis,X-ray structure,and DFT studies of five- and eight-coordinated Cd(II) complexes with s-triazine N-pincer chelate

Abstract

The synthesis and spectral characterizations of [CdLCl₂] (1 C. J. Moulton, B.L. Shaw. J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans., 1020 (1976).[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]) and [CdL(NO₃)₂(H₂O)] (2 G. van Koten. Pure Appl. Chem., 61, 1681 (1989).[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) pincer complexes of the s-triazine core ligand (L), 2,4-bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methoxy-1,3,5-triazine), are presented. Complexes 1 and 2 have five- and eight-coordinated Cd(II) ions, respectively, where L acts as a neutral tridentate N-chelate. The coordination sphere is completed by two coordinated Cl^– anions in 1 and with one water molecule and two bidentate nitrate anions in 2. The neutral complex units of 1 and 2 are packed by the polar Cl…H and O…H hydrogen bonds, respectively. Using Hirshfeld analysis, the percentages of these contacts are 24.5% and ～36.8%, respectively. Both complexes showed some anion-π stacking interactions. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that 1 is thermally more stable than 2. The orbital-orbital interactions included in the Cd-Cl, Cd-O, and Cd-N coordinate bonds were analyzed using DFT calculations. The calculated NMR results correlated very well with the experimental data.

(2007) Coord. Chem. Rev., 251(21): 2622–2664.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar] and sonochemical process respectively. Nanostructure of the complex was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), FT-IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the structure of compound 1 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Thermal stability of compound 1 in its nanosize form has also been studied by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The effect of concentration of initial reagents on size and morphology of nanostructured compound 1 has been examined. The brightness of this study is to use the nanostructure of 1D-CuOCP as precursor to prepare single phase CuO nanoparticles via a solid-state decomposition procedure. Characterization methods confirmed that CuO nanoparticles with an average diameter of 40 nm were obtained from direct calcination of the precursor at 500°C under air.
