Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structure of a Binuclear Copper(II) Diethylenetriamine Complex Bridged Through a Centrosymmetric 1,3-μ-Thiocyanato Group

Abstract

The binuclear copper(II) complex [Cu₂(dien)₂(NCS)₂](ClO₄)₂, where dien = diethylenetriamine, has been synthesized and characterized by analysis, infrared (IR) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra. A centrosymmetric axial‐equatorial 1,3-μ-NCS bridged binuclear copper(II) complex has been identified by X-ray diffraction, in which each copper(II) is five-coordinated with an elongated square pyramidal geometry with four nitrogen atoms on its basal plane and one sulfur atom at the apical position. Frozen solution EPR spectra at 77 K indicate that the interaction between the two copper centers is weak and the bridge is retained in solution.     

Groups of paramagnetic centres in coal samples with different carbon contents

Complex systems of paramagnetic centres existing in demineralised flame coal (71.4 wt% C), medium-rank coal (85.6 wt% C) and anthracite (94.9 wt% C) were analysed by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR). Different groups of paramagnetic centres were searched in macerals (exinite, vitrinite, inertinite) of coals with carbon contents of 73.8 wt% C and 85.6 wt% C. Experimental EPR spectra were fitted by different superposition of theoretical lines. Total concentration of paramagnetic centres both in coal and macerals increases with carbon content in the sample. Total concentration of paramagnetic centres in macerals increases from exinite to inertinite. Four groups of paramagnetic centres were found in medium-rank coal, and only two groups exist in flame coal and anthracite. The EPR spectrum of medium-rank coal is a superposition of two broad and two narrow lines. Both broad and narrow, and two narrow lines were measured in EPR spectra of flame coal and anthracite, respectively. Two types of paramagnetic centres with broad lines and one group with narrow lines exist in exinite and vitrinite from medium-rank coal. Two narrow components were observed in EPR spectra of its inertinite. Two different broad electron paramagnetic resonance signals were detected for macerals from low-coalificated coal. Paramagnetic centres systems of medium-rank coal samples reveal the most complex character. Broad EPR lines were not observed for the higher coalificated samples, i.e., anthracite and inertinite from medium-rank coal. Narrow lines do not occur in EPR spectra of low-coalificated macerals. Strong dipolar interactions and fast spin-lattice relaxation processes are characteristic for paramagnetic centres with broad lines. Strong exchange interactions and short spin-lattice relaxation time were measured for paramagnetic centres with the narrowest EPR signals.     

SimLabel: a graphical user interface to simulate continuous wave EPR spectra from site‐directed spin labeling experiments

Site‐directed spin labeling (SDSL) combined with continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance (cw EPR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique to reveal, at the residue level, structural transitions in proteins. SDSL‐EPR is based on the selective grafting of a paramagnetic label on the protein under study, followed by cw EPR analysis. To extract valuable quantitative information from SDSL‐EPR spectra and thus give reliable interpretation on biological system dynamics, numerical simulations of the spectra are required. Such spectral simulations can be carried out by coding in MATLAB using functions from the EasySpin toolbox. For non‐expert users of MATLAB, this could be a complex task or even impede the use of such simulation tool. We developed a graphical user interface called SimLabel dedicated to run cw EPR spectra simulations particularly coming from SDSL‐EPR experiments. Simlabel provides an intuitive way to visualize, simulate, and fit such cw EPR spectra. An example of SDSL‐EPR spectra simulation concerning the study of an intrinsically disordered region undergoing a local induced folding is described and discussed. We believe that this new tool will help the users to rapidly obtain reliable simulated spectra and hence facilitate the interpretation of their results. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Structure of bis[ethyl (trifluoroacetyl)acetato]copper(II) and its adduct with 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine: EPR and X-ray study

Bis[ethyl (trifluoroacetyl)acetato]copper(II), [Cu(etfac)₂], has been prepared and studied by X-ray crystallography and EPR spectroscopy. The complex is centrosymmetrical and crystallizes in the P2₁/c space group with two formula units per unit cell. After dissolving of the complex in solid matrix or in suitable solvents some changes are detected in the EPR spectra and are discussed. The EPR spectra of the complex magnetically diluted in the corresponding Pd(II) complex reveal the presence of only one paramagnetic species further denoted as B. However, EPR spectra measured in solution indicate the presence of two different paramagnetic species: (i) non-distorted parent species B, and (ii) rhombic-distorted species A, which prevail in solutions. The A:B species ratio is a function of the solvent and temperature. The [Cu(etfac)₂] adduct with 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine has also been studied and found to crystallize in the C2/c space group. The adduct EPR spectrum monitored in solution shows the presence of only one paramagnetic species.     

Identification of static JT in copper(II) doped hexaimidazole M(II) lattices: M=Co and Ni: an EPR study

Single crystal EPR studies on Cu(II) doped paramagnetic host lattices, hexaimidazole M(II) dichloride tetrahydrate (M=Co and Ni), isomorphous with M=Zn, have been carried out from room temperature to 77K to understand the nature of Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion in these paramagnetic host systems. The paramagnetic impurity, doped in the present two paramagnetic host lattices, shows anisotropic EPR spectra with superhyperfine from ligands, even at room temperature. An interesting observation noticed in the EPR spectra at room temperature is that there are more resonances corresponding to the second site in the paramagnetic hosts than in the diamagnetic host at 4.2K. This difference in behavior between the diamagnetic and paramagnetic host lattices indicates a change in the depth of the JT valleys. The spin Hamiltonian parameters are evaluated for Cu(II) ion in both the host lattices and the relaxation times have been calculated for the ion in cobalt host lattice only.     

Evolution of ordered films of copper phthalocyanine according to EPR data

The procedure for calculating the orientation distribution of molecules using the angular dependence of EPR spectra was employed to study copper(II) phthalocyanine (CuPc) films varying in thickness and obtained by depositing the molecular complex on flat quartz plates. At the first stage of deposition, a layer of the α-CuPc phase with preferable orientation of molecular stacks along the plate surface is formed. At the second stage, a layer with an orthogonal arrangement of molecular stacks is condensed over the first layer. The interaction with NO₂ forms CuPc binuclear associates. Analysis of the EPR spectra made it possible to determine the symmetry of the structure and the distance between the paramagnetic Cu²⁺ ions; the structure of the associates has been proposed. The orientation distribution of CuPc dimers in the film depends both on the initial ordering in the film and on processing conditions. Strong disordering of molecular stacks in ordered films during the α-CuPc to α-CuPc phase transition has been found.     

The structure and EPR spectra of binuclear copper(II) complexes with acyldihydrazones of β-diketones

The synthesis and structure of binuclear copper(II) complexes with acyldihydrazones of some β-diketones are described. The molecular structure of the copper(II) complex [Cu₂L·4Py] with trifluoroacetylacetone succinyldihydrazone (H₄L) was determined by the single-crystal X-ray analysis. Central atoms are bridged by a chain of seven σ-bonds with a Cu...Cu distance of 8.750 Å. EPR spectra of copper(II) complexes with acyldihydrazones of trifluoroacetylacetone and lower dicarboxylic acids containing from one to four methylene groups in the aliphatic spacer show the seven-line HFS due to spin-spin coupling of unpaired electrons with the two equivalent copper nuclei (g = 2.110, a = (38.5–40.5)⊙10^?4 cm^?1). By extending polymethylene spacer, as well as by modifying starting β-diketone, an exchange interaction between paramagnetic centers is suppressed.     

A further insight into the mechanism of biosorption of metals, by examining chitin epr spectra

Experimental chitin-uranium-copper EPR spectra have been simulated by computer. The simulation suggests that the chitin-copper-uranium EPR spectra are primarily due to a chitin-copper interaction, with insignificant contribution from other paramagnetic species. The simulation suggests two possible complex configurations, both involving one ligand nitrogen atom.     

Paramagnetic centers by X-ray-irradiation of aluminium hydroxide

EPR spectra of paramagnetic centers originating from X-ray-irradiation of aluminium hydroxide at room temperature have been measured. The EPR spectrum represents a superposition of EPR spectra of ionic centers O^–, holes of type and trapped electrons. Radiation chemical yield of paramagnetic centers observed at room temperature (293 K) is G(spins.)=4.4±0.6) spins per 100 eV absorbed energy. The decay of paramagnetic centers in irradiated Al(OH)₃ was oberved at 293 K. The rate constant of the paramagnetic centers decay in irradiated Al(OH)₃ is K₂=(0.0980±0.0019) kg·mol^–1·min^–1 and their half-life is 9.43±0.18 days.Dedicated to the memory of the late Genrikh Markovis Kolyiari.     

Metal complexes with macrocyclic ligands. Part XXII. Synthesis two of bis-tetraaza-macrocycles and study of the structures,electrochemistry, VIS and EPR spectra of their binuclear Cu2+ and Ni2+ complexes

The two bis-macrocycles 4 and 5 in which the tetraaza units are separated by a chain of different length, have been synthesized using 1,4,7-tritosyl-1,4,7,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane as starting compound and bifunctional alkylating agents. The bis-macrocycles give binuclear complexes with Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺, the properties of which have been studied to obtain information about the interaction of the two subunits as a function of the distance. The VIS spectra of the Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺ complexes indicate that both metal ions are in a square-planar geometry as expected from the results of the analogous complexes with 1,4,7,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane 7 . Cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse polarography of the binuclear Ni²⁺complexes in CH₃CN show a single two-electron step for ligand 5 , whereas two distinct one-electron redox processes can be observed for ligand 4 , indicating that the two metal ions interact with each other when the chain length is shorter. Similarly, the EPR studies of frozen solutions of the binuclear Cu²⁺ complexes clearly show that a magnetic dipolar interaction between the two paramagnetic centers exists, and that the strength of it depends upon the length of the bridge. Finally, from the X-ray structures of the binuclear Ni²⁺ complexes with 4 and 5 , it is seen that the two rings are kept apart as far as possible, the distances between the two metal ions determined in the solid correlate well with the observations in solution.
