A dinuclear nickel(II) complex, [Ni₂(MOBPT)₂(N₃)₄] · 2H₂O (MOBPT = 4-(p-methoxyphenyl)-3,5-bis(pyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV, IR, ESI-MS, and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The complex crystallizes in triclinic system, space group P 1 with a = 9.877(2) Å, b = 10.396(2) Å, c = 11.975(3) Å, α = 71.638(3)°, β = 74.968(3)°, γ = 64.747(3)°, V = 1044.2(4) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0371 for 5774 observed reflections. The crystal structure determination shows that the dinuclear Ni₂N₈ unit is almost planar with each Ni²⁺ coordinated by four nitrogens from two MOBPT ligands and two axial azides in a distorted octahedral geometry. Magnetic measurements reveal weak antiferromagnetic exchange in the complex.     

Synthesis and electrochemical study of 2-(2-pyridyl)benzothiazole complexes with transition metals (CoII, NiII, and CuII). Molecular structure of aquabis[2-(2-pyridyl)benzothiazole]copper(II) diperchlorate

The reactions of 2-(2-pyridyl)benzothiazole (1) with MX₂·nH₂O salts (M = Ni^II, Co^II, or Cu^II; X = Cl or ClO₄; n = 0–2) in EtOH afforded the corresponding complexes. Depending on the nature of the counterion in the starting metal salt, the reactions give compounds of composition M(1)Cl₂·nH₂O or Cu(1)₂(ClO₄)₂·H₂O. The molecular and crystal structure of the Cu^II(1)₂(ClO₄)₂·H₂O complex was established by X-ray diffraction. The copper atom in this complex has a distorted tetragonal-pyramidal ligand environment and is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms of two ligand molecules and one water molecule. Electrochemical study of the ligand and the resulting complexes by cyclic voltammetry and at a rotating disk electrode demonstrated that ligand 1 stabilizes reduced forms of complexes containing Ni, Co, or Cu atoms in the oxidation state +1.

A benzene‐rich pseudopolymorph of bis[μ‐1,3‐bis(pentafluorophenyl)propane‐1,3‐dionato]‐κ3O,O′:O′;κ3O:O,O′‐bis{aqua[1,3‐bis(pentafluorophenyl)propane‐1,3‐dionato‐κ2O,O′]nickel(II)} benzene tetrasolvate

The title complex comprises two Ni²⁺ ions, four fluorinated ligands and two water molecules in a centrosymmetric dinuclear complex. This compound was crystallized from benzene–CH₂Cl₂, and two types of crystals, viz. the title benzene tetrasolvate, [Ni₂(C₁₅HF₁₀O₂)₄(H₂O)₂]·4C₆H₆, (I), and the previously reported benzene disolvate, [Ni₂(C₁₅HF₁₀O₂)₄(H₂O)₂]·2C₆H₆, (II) [Hori et al. (2009). Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn, 82 , 96–98], were obtained as pseudopolymorphs. In the crystal structure of (I), the four benzene solvent molecules interact closely with all the pentafluorophenyl groups of the complex through arene–perfluoroarene interactions. The molecular structures of the two compounds show essentially the same conformation, although the benzene molecules are accommodated in a columnar packing in (I), while they are isolated from each other in (II).     

Crystal structures and magnetic interactions in nickel(II) dibridged complexes formed by both phenolate oxygen-azide,or methanlate groups

Abstract  

Tridentate Schiff base ligands L¹ and L², derived from the condensation of 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (L) with 2-aminoethanol or 2-aminobutan-1-ol, react with nickel chloride, azide, or thiocyanate to give rise to two dinuclear complexes of formulas [Ni₂(L)(L¹)₂N₃]·H₂O (1), [Ni₂(L²)₃(μ_1,1-N₃)]·2H₂O (2), and one tretranuclear complex [Ni₂(L²)₂(NCS)]₂(C₂H₅OH)₂ (3), where L¹ = HOCH₂CH(C₂H₅)NCHC₆H₃(O⁻)(OCH₃) and L² = HO(CH₂)₂NCHC₆H₃(O⁻)(OCH₃). We have characterized these complexes by analytical, crystal structures, and variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements. The magnetic properties of the complexes are studied by magnetic susceptibility (χ_M) vs. temperature measurements. The χ_M T vs. T plots reveal that compounds 1, 2 and 3 are ferromagnetically coupled.     

A cubane-like [Ni4O4] cluster and a chloro-bridged dinuclear copper complex incorporating a hydroxyl-rich ligand: syntheses and crystal structures

A tetranuclear cubane-like cluster [Ni₄(HL)₄(DMSO)₂]?·?2DMSO?·?H₂O (1) and a dinuclear compound [Cu₂Cl₂(H₂L)₂]?·?1.5MeOH (2) (H₃L?=?3-(2-hydroxy-benzylideneamino)propane-1,2-diol) have been prepared and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, IR, and elemental analysis. The X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the four metals of 1 showed a Ni₄O₄ cubane arrangement, and two of the six faces of the Ni₄O₄ cubane were capped by DMSO. Complex 1 is the first reported DMSO capped Ni₄O₄ cubane cluster. Complex 2 contains a u ₂-Cl bridged dinuclear core with each Cu^II ion exhibiting pseudo square pyramidal geometry.     

Polyol‐Metall‐Komplexe. 491) μ‐Dulcitolato‐O2, 3;4, 5‐Komplexe mit Amin‐Kupfer(II)‐ und ‐Nickel(II)‐Metallfragmenten

Polyol Metal Complexes. 49¹⁾ μ‐Dulcitolato‐O^{2, 3;4, 5} Complexes with Cu^II(en) and Ni^II(tren) Metal Fragments The dinuclear ethylenediamine‐copper(II) complex of the tetra‐anion of the achiral alditol dulcitol (galactitol) is remarkable, since it was the first crystalline carbohydrate—metal complex ever reported (W. Traube, G. Glaubitt, V. Schenck, Ber. Dtsch. Chem. Ges. 1930 , 63, 2083—2093). Although its existence is recognized for many decades, its structure remained unknown due to a kind of crystal packing that promotes twinning. Crystal growth at low temperatures now yielded crystalline specimens of [(en)₂Cu₂(Dulc2, 3, 4, 5H_—4)] · 7 H₂O ( 1 ) that have allowed us to unravel both the crystal structure and the twinning law. Closely related molecular structures are adopted by [(tren)₂Ni₂(Dulc2, 3, 4, 5H_—4)] · 20 H₂O ( 2 ) and [(Me₃tren)₂Ni₂(Dulc2, 3, 4, 5H_—4)] · 16 H₂O ( 3 ), the latter showing the shortest hydrogen bond towards a polyolate acceptor ever found (O···O distance: 2.422Å).     

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of bimetallic complex of Ni2Co(TTHA)·12H2O

The bimetallic complex of Ni₂Co(TTHA)·12H₂O (TTHA = triethylene tetraminehexaacetic acid) was synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. The title complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P ī with a = 0.7316(2), b = 0.8624(2), c = 1.5041(4) nm; α = 73.38(2), β = 83.97(2), γ = 70.50(2)°. The crystal structure is built up of [Ni₂(TTHA)(H₂O)₂]²⁻, Co(H₂O)₆²⁺ and water molecules. The variable magnetic measurement shows that there is strong antiferromagnetic interaction between two Ni(II) ions in [Ni₂(TTHA) (H₂O)₂]²⁻ with J _Ni−Ni = −141.64 cm⁻¹, g _Ni = 2.21 and that the constant of spin-orbit coupling of Co(II) ion is −134.8 cm⁻¹. __________ Translated from Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Nankaiensis, 2007, 40(1): 6–10 [译自: 南开大学学报(自然科学版)]     

Interaction of <Emphasis Type="Italic">E. coli</Emphasis> DNA with diazine-bridged late first row transition metal complexes derived from hexadentate compartmental ligands: an approach to DNA cleavage/binding studies

A series of binuclear Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II complexes having μ-1,2 diazine bridging have been prepared and characterized by various physico-chemical methods. The hexadentate ligands were synthesized by condensing 3,5-dichloroformyl-1H-pyrazole with 2-hydrazinobenzothiazole (L¹H) or 4-aminoantipyrine (L²H) in 1:2 ratio. Gel electrophoresis data indicate cleavage of E. coli DNA to a minute extent by both [Co₂L²(μ-Cl)Cl₂(H₂O)₂]·H₂O and [Ni₂L²(μ-Cl)Cl₂(H₂O)₂]. Conversely, the data for the remaining complexes indicated binding but not cleavage. These results were confirmed by viscosity measurements and absorption spectral studies. An intercalative binding mode is predicted when the title complexes interact with DNA.     

Complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with 4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,4-triazole

All the above complexes are X-ray amorphous. Antifer-romagnetic exchange interactions between the M²⁺ ions were discovered in the [Co₃L₁₀(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₆ and [Ni₃L₁₀(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₆ complexes, whereas ferromagnetic exchange interactions were observed in the complexes [Ni₃L₆(H₂O)₆]Cl₆, [Ni₃L₆(H₂O)₆]Br₆, and [Cu₅L₁₆(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₁₀ · 2H₂O.

All the three complexes 1 , 2 , and 3 have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT‐IR spectroscopy, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies. Crystal structures reveal that complex 1 is a trinuclear incomplete cubane‐like zinc cluster whereas complex 2 is a dinuclear nickel complex bridged by azide, and compound 3 is a trinuclear nickel complex. The luminescent property for complex 1 and magnetic behaviors for complexes 2 and 3 have been investigated.     

Hydrothermal syntheses and characterization of cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes of 1,3-adamantanedicarboxylic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline

Two coordination complexes, namely [Co(phen)(H₂O)L]·H₂O and [Ni₂(phen)₂(H₂O)₂L₂]·4H₂O (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, H₂L = 1,3-adamantanedicarboxylic acid) have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

Summary The structure of the hexaazamacrobicycle, sarcophagine, (diAMMEsar)·2H₂O, formed by extracting Co ion from the [Co(diAMMEsar H₂)]Cl₅·-H₂O cage with 8-hydroxyquinoline, has been determined by elemental analysis, and i.r., u.v.-vis., ¹H-n.m.r. and mass spectroscopies. Two octahedral complexes, [M(diAMM-EsarH₂)]Cl₄·2H₂O (M = Ni^II or Cu^II), have been prepared and characterized. The e.s.r. spectrum of the Cu^II complex in the solid state indicates spin-exchange interaction between the Cu^II ions. However, in CD₃OD-D₂O (10%) at 77K, the spectrum is characteristic of a compound having axial symmetry (d _x ²−y ²).
