Reactivity of α,α-dipyrrolylmethene in reactions with some Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes

Reactivity of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-4,4′dibutyldipyrrolylmethene (HL) in reactions Co(II) and Cu(II) acetates, acetylacetonates, and valinates in DMF (298.15 K) was estimated by spectrophotometric and calorimetric titration methods. The product of the exchange reaction between HL and Co acetate or acetylacetonate was found to be CoL₂ complex. With an excess of Cu(II) acetate or acetylacetonate, the reaction resulted in mixed-ligand complexes CuL(AcO) and CuL(Acac), while with an excess of HL, the CuL₂ complex was formed. Irrespective of the reagent concentration ratios, the exchange reactions with Cu(II) and Co(II) valinates gave ML(Val) complexes. Thermodynamic parameters of HL reactions with Cu(II) and Co(II) acetates, acetylacetonates, and valinates were determined.     

Reactions of Cu(II) and Co(II) acetates, acetylacetonates, and valinates with α,α-Dipyrrolylemethen

The reactions of Co(II) and Cu(II) acetates, valinates, and acetylacetonates with 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-4,4′-dibutyldipyrrolylmethen (HL) in DMF at 298.15 K are studied by spectrophotometric method. The compositions and thermodynamic constants of formation of the Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes are determined using the methods of molar ratios and continuous changes. With an excess in Cu(II) acetate or acetylacetonate, the formation of mixed-ligand complexes CuL(OAc) and CuL(Acac), respectively, was observed, whereas CuL₂ complex was detected in the case of HL excess. At either ratio of the reagent concentrations, reactions of Co(II) acetate and acetylacetonate with HL always afforded CoL₂ complex, while in the case of Cu(II) and Co(II) valinates, only one amino acid ligand was replaced to give ML(Val) complexes (HVal is valine). The chelating capability of the ligand HL toward the Cu²⁺ ion was found to be higher than that toward the Co²⁺ ion.     

Novel mercury(II) complexes of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin and N-methylporphyrins

Treatment of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin, H₂TPP, with just over one equivalent of mercury(II) acetate in methylene chloride-THF gives mercury(II) meso-tetraphenylporphyrin, HgTPP. With excess of mercury(II) acetate, H₂TPP and HgTPP afford a novel dimetallic mononuclear porphyrin, AcOHgTPPHgOAc. In contrast, HgTPP reacts with mercury(II) chloride to give the chloro-analogue, ClHgTPPHgCl, but there is no reaction between H₂TPP and mercury(II) chloride. Demetallation of HgTPP in methylene chloride containing small amounts of hydrogen chloride proceeds via the dimetallic compound, ClHgTPPHgCl, to give free base HTPP. The reaction rate is dependent upon acid concentration suggesting that the rate determining step is protonation, but dilution causes no decrease in the rate; a mechanism which invokes the intermediacy of monohydrogen-meso-tetraphenylporphyrinatomercury(II) chloride, H(TPP)HgCl, in the formation of ClHgTPPHgCl and in its subsequent decomposition into H₂TPP, is proposed.N-Methylporphyrins react with mercury(II) acetate in methylene chloride-tetrahydrofuran to give the corresponding N-methylporphyrinatomercury(II) acetates, Me(P)HgOAc.     

Novel acetate binding modes in [Na2Cu(CH3COO)4(H2O)].H2O

A new copper(II) acetate, [Na(2)Cu(CH(3)COO)(4)(H(2)O)].H(2)O (1), has been crystallized from an aqueous solution containing sodium acetate and copper(II) acetate monohydrate in a 4:1 ratio and the structure determined by X-ray crystallography. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, with a = 16.638(3) A, b = 11.781(2) A, c = 15.668(3) A, beta = 90.11(3) degrees, V = 3071.0(11) A(3), and Z = 4. In the asymmetric unit, sodium ions bridge two crystallographically unique square planar [Cu(CH(3)COO)(4)](2-) units to their symmetry-generated neighbors to form corrugated 2D sheets of Na(2)Cu(CH(3)COO)(4), which are held together by H-bonding interactions involving the waters of crystallization. In contrast, the structures of known sodium copper acetates are better described as 3D frameworks. The metal centers are bridged by a number of acetates in novel coordination modes. The square planar Cu(II) geometry generated by oxygen atoms from four different acetates is an unexpected feature given the weak ligand field provided by the acetate ligands.     

Selective palladium(ii)-catalyzed acetoxylation of cyclododecene: a kinetic study

The acetoxylation of cyclododecene by palladium(II) acetate, hydroquinone and iron(II) phthalocyanine (FePc) was studied at 0.1 ÷ 1.0 MPa dioxygen pressure and temperature range of 313 to 335 K. Cyclododec-2-en-1-yl acetates in high selectivity (93.4%) at a conversion of cyclododecene up to 93.8% were obtained. The kinetic model assumed the significant inhibition effect of the allyl acetates. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Thermochemical Reactivity of Transition Metal Acetates and of A Novel DMSO Solvate of Iron(II) Acetate in Molecular Hydrogen

The thermal decomposition of acetates of the transition metals Fe, Co, Ni, Mn and Cu in molecular hydrogen has been investigated by means of combined thermogravimetry/mass spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and transmission as well as scanning electron microscopy. In the context of the reproducible preparation of the parent phases, i.e. the hydrated or anhydrous metal(II) acetates, single crystalline Fe₃(CH₃COO)₆(DMSO)₂, a novel DMSO solvate of iron(II) acetate, has been isolated and its crystal structure has been determined by means of X-ray diffraction. For the series of metal(II) acetates it has been found that the course of the thermal degradation in molecular hydrogen, in particular the formation of the gaseous products, strongly depends on the transition metal ion present in the parent compound. The detailed characterisation of the solid products revealed, that phases exhibiting different catalytic activities and selectivities are formed as micro- or nanocrystalline metals and/or metal oxides.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Au(I)- and Pt(II)-catalyzed cycloetherification of omega-hydroxy propargylic esters

Depending on the nature of the metal catalyst, omega-hydroxy propargylic acetates choose between alternative cycloetherification manifolds to produce functionalized heterocycles in high yields. AuCl catalyzes the formation of oxacyclic enol acetates, whereas [Cl(2)Pt(CH(2)CH(2))]2 (Zeise's dimer) will induce a propargylic substitution via an unprecedented S(N)2'-type allenic substitution from within a chelated square planar cationic Pt(II) complex.

Spacer layer screening effect: a novel fluorescent film sensor for organic copper(II) salts

A fluorescent film sensor was prepared by chemical assembly of pyrene on a glass plate surface via a long flexible spacer. It was found that the film is highly selective for some organic Cu2+ salts, such as copper acetate and copper propionate. The presence of inorganic Cu2+ salts and other metal(II) acetates, including Ni2+, Co2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, etc., had little effect upon the sensing behavior of the film for copper acetate or copper propionate. The observation was explained by employing a proposed "two-dimensional solution" model. The quenching by copper acetate of the emission of the film is static in nature due to complexation of the spacers to the metal ions. Furthermore, the response of the film sensor to copper acetate is fully reversible. To the best of our knowledge, this film sensor may be the first one that can differentiate greasy copper salts from inorganic copper salts.     

Interactions of hexamethyltetrabutyl-substituted biladiene-a,c with cobalt(II) and zinc(II) acetates

The thermodynamics of the reaction of 1,3,7,13,17,19-hexamethyl-2,8,12,18-tetrabutylbiladiene-a,c (H₂L) with cobalt(II) and zinc(II) acetates in dimethylformamide (298.15 K) was studied by spectrophotometric and calorimetric titration. It was found that H2L and Zn(II) form a mononuclear complex ZnL, and in the case of Co(II), a binuclear biligand complex Co₂L₂ is formed. Thermodynamic characteristics of the formation of Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes with biladiene-a,c in DMF at 298.15 K were determined.     

Reactions of thiosemicarbazones derived from beta-keto amides and beta-keto esters with Zn(II) and Cd(II) acetates: influence of metal, substitution, reagent ratio and temperature on metal-induced cyclization

Zinc(II) and cadmium(II) acetates were reacted in methanol under various experimental conditions with thiosemicarbazones derived from beta-keto amides or beta-keto esters (HTSC). Some of these reactions afforded thiosemicarbazonate complexes [M(TSC)2] with IR and NMR spectra compatible with N,S-coordination, but most gave complexes [ML2], where HL is a substituted 2,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1H-pyrazole-1-carbothioamide resulting from cyclization of the HTSC. Some of these pyrazolonates and two of the HL ligands were studied by X-ray diffractometry, and their structures are discussed. Surprisingly, the reactions of zinc(II) acetate with HTSC in 1:1 mol ratio usually gave a third, previously unreported type of complex with a dideprotonated ligand, [Zn(L-H)], which was also formed when [ZnL2] and Zn(OAc)2 interacted at room temperature in 1:1 mol ratio. These L-H complexes are highly insoluble in all common solvents, which hinders their characterization but suggests that they are polymeric in nature.     

Mononuclear Cu(II), Zn(II), and Co(II) Complexes with 2-Furoate Anions and 2,2'-Bpy: Synthesis,Structure, and Biological Activity

Russian Journal of Coordination Chemistry - The mononuclear complexes [M(Fur)2(Bpy)(H2O)] (M = Cu (I), Zn (II)) were prepared by the reactions of copper(II) and zinc(II) acetates with 2-furoic acid...     

The thermodynamic characteristics of formation of mono-and binuclear biladiene Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Hg(II) chelates in dimethylformamide solutions

The spectral and calorimetric data on complex formation between alkyl substituted a,c-biladiene and Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Hg(II) acetates in dimethylformamide are discussed. The stability of mononuclear biladiene chelates was shown to be determined by steric factors characterizing the formation of coordination polyhedra with the tetradentate ligand. The thermodynamic characteristics of the differential polychelate effect caused by the replacement of the bidentate dipyrrolylmetene ligand with the tetradentate biladiene anion in mononuclear zinc(II) complexes were estimated. The results showed that the largest contribution to the polychelate effect was made by the enthalpy component of the Gibbs energy.     

Synthesis and spectral investigations of manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of new polydentate ligands containing a 1,8-naphthyridine moiety

2-(o-Hydroxyphenyl)-1,8-naphthyridine (HN), 2-(4-hydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridine (HMPN) and 2-(benzimidazol-2-yl)-1,8-naphthyridine(BN) react with acetates of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) to yield metal ion complexes of definite composition. These compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility measurements, thermal studies, IR, UV-visible, NMR and mass spectral investigations. The complexes are found to have the formulae [M(HN)2(H2O)2], [M(HMPN)2(H2O)2] and [M(BN)2(OAc)2], respectively.     

Über Chrom(II)-carboxylate und Halogenochromate(II)

Highly pure chromium(II) acetate, was obtained from chromium powder and anhydrous acetic acid in the presence of a small amount of acetylhalide. Cr^II acetate reacts with acetyl halide in anhydrous acetic acid to sesquisolvates like CrCl₂ · 3/2 CH₃COOH. If one equivalent of alkali acetate or an organic nitrogen base is added to solutions of Cr^II acetate in acetyl halide/acetic acid mixtures, trihalochromates(II) are precipitated which are hexagonal in structure, except the ammonium and the potassium salt. With two equivalents of alkali or ammonium acetate tetrachlorochromates(II) of cesium, rubidium and ammonium are precipitated. They are tetragonal in structure (K₂NiF₄ type). Using pyridinium acetate with various mixtures of acetyl bromide and acetic acid, only the solvates (PyH)₃(CrBr₅) · 2CH₃COOH is formed.     

Electrophilic cyclization of α- and β-geranyl acetates by mercury(II) trifluoroacetate

Electrophilic cyclization of β-geranyl acetate promoted by mercury(II) trifluoroacetate leads to mixtures of α- and γ-5αH-cyclogeranyl acetate derivatives and 6α-hydroxy-5αH-and 6α-hydroxy-5βH-cyclogeranyl acetate derivatives mercurated at the C-3 atom. The ratio of the unsaturated and hydroxymercurated products depends on the reaction conditions. α-Geranyl acetate reacts with mercury(II) trifluoroacetate to give a mixture of 6α-hydroxy-5αH-and 6α-hydroxy-5βH-geranyl acetates, mercurated at C-9, with an equatorial mercurated methylene group at C-4. The mercury-containing groups in mercurated cyclogeranyl derivatives can easily be reduced or replaced by an oxygen-containing functional group; this constitutes a convenient route to polyfunctional cyclogeranyl derivatives that are difficult to obtain.

Complexation of Tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphine with Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Co(II) Salts in Organic Solvents

The rate and activation parameters of tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphine (H₂TPTBP) complexation with 3d-metal acetates and acetylacetonates are shown to be determined by the solvent nature. With an increase in the electron-donor properties of a solvent, the reaction rate increases due to protonation of N–H bonds and decreases as MA _m (Solv) _{n – m} salt solvates become more stable. As the result, the rate of a reaction with ZnAc₂ increases in the series: DMF < dmso=">< py=">< proh-1="><>₃CN <>₆H₆. In inert and weakly coordinating solvents, the transition state of a reaction is supposed to be formed according to the mechanism of contraction of the salt coordination sphere. The rate of H₂TPTBP reaction with metal acetates in pyridine changes in the series: Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Zn(II) > Co(II), while the stability of the obtained complexes decreases in the series Cu(II) > Co(II) > Zn(II) > Cd(II). It is shown that the spectral criterion of the complex stability can be used in the series of metal complexes with one ligand, but it is violated if the ligand structure is changed.     

Thermodynamic stability of Ni(II) and Cu(II) chelates with biladiene-a,c in DMF

The equilibria of the reactions of complex formation between alkyl-substituted biladiene-a,c and Ni(II) and Cu(II) acetates in DMF were studied by the electronic spectroscopy. Porphyrin-like complexes (1:1) were shown to form in the systems under study. Concentration constants of complex formation were calculated and extrapolated to infinite dilution in order to obtain standard thermodynamic quantities. The role of the nature of a metal cation on thermodynamic parameters of complex formation processes was discussed.     

Synthesis,crystal structures,and magnetic properties of two cyano-bridged tungstate(V)-manganese(II) bimetallic magnets

The reaction of manganese acetate with octacyanotungastate in an aqueous solution of concentrated acetic acid gives two new three-dimensional cyano-bridged manganese(II)-tungstate(V) bimetallic assemblies, [Mn(II)(2)(H(2)O)(2)(CH(3)COO)][W(V)(CN)(8)].2H(2)O (1) (tetragonal space group I4/mcm, a = b = 11.9628(9) A, c = 13.367(2) A, and Z = 4) and Cs(I)(0.5)Mn(II)(2)[W(V)(CN)(8)](CH(3)CO(2))(1.5).H(2)O (2) (monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 16.274(2) A, b = 22.948(6) A, c = 13.196(1) A, beta = 128.040(6) degrees, and Z = 8). In complex 1, W(V)(CN)(8) adopts a square antiprismatic geometry, and each CN group coordinates to the Mn(II) ions forming W-Mn(4)-W-Mn(4)-...columnar linkages where four sites on the Mn(II) ion with octahedral geometry are occupied by CN groups. The columns are parallel and interlock, yielding a network structure. Complex 2 contains two different coordination geometries for W(V)(CN)(8), namely, square antiprismatic and dodecahedral. The columnar structures appear also in 2, where the Mn(II) ions in two different environments provide three and four coordinated sites to the CN groups. The columns are bridged by both dodecahedral W(V)(CN)(8) groups and acetates. Cs ions were intercalated in the lattice by the formation of short attractive contacts with the acetates. The field-cooled magnetization, ac susceptibility, and the field dependence of magnetization measurements show that both 1 and 2 are ferrimagnets with ordering temperatures 40 and 45 K, respectively. The investigation of the magnetostructural correlation shows that the ferrimagnetic ordering in 1 and 2 are attributed to the dominant antiferromagnetic exchange pathways d(z)2(W)-d(x')(y')(Mn) and d(x)2(-y)2(W) - d(x')(y')(Mn).
