Coordination chemistry of 5,6,7-trimethyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine with first-row transition-metal salts: Synthesis, spectroscopy and single-crystal structures, with counter-anion dependence of the structures

A variety of new coordination compounds with transition-metal salts and the ligand trimethyl[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (abbreviated as tmtp) is described, together with several of their 3D crystal structures and spectroscopic and magnetic properties. The compounds were selected based on the coordination ability of the counterion, halide, nitrate, sulfate, thiocyanate and perchlorate. The formed coordination compounds and their coordination numbers were found to be strongly dependent on both the cation and the used counter-anion. The several compounds studied have the following structural formulae: [CuCl₂(tmtp)₂], [CuBr₂(tmtp)₂], [ZnBr₂(tmtp)₂], [Cu(NO₃)₂(tmtp)₂], [CuSO₄(tmtp)₂]₂(H₂O)(MeOH), [Cu(H₂O)(NCS)₂(tmtp)₂], [Zn(NCS)₂(tmtp)₂], [Cd(NCS)₂(tmtp)₂] and [M(H₂O)₂(tmtp)₄](BF₄)₂, in which M = Co, Ni, Zn.The new coordination compounds have been further characterized by NMR, (far-)IR and LF spectra, as well as by C, H, N element analyses, and EPR spectra for the Cu(II) compounds. The coordination around the metal varies from 4 (Zn, Cu), via 5 (Cu) to 6 (for Co, Cu and Cd). The anions usually complete the coordination sphere; only the Co and Zn compounds with the tetrafluoridoborate anions have no coordinated anions, but water ligands complete the octahedral coordination sphere. In the 5-coordinated [Cu(H₂O)(NCS)₂(tmtp)₂] water completes the square pyramid geometry.     

INFRARED ASSIGNMENT OF BIS(GLYCOLATO)-BIS(PYRIDINE) METAL(II) COMPOUNDS AND CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF TRANS-BIS(GLYCOLATO)-CIS-BIS(PYRIDINE)NICKEL(II) DIHYDRATE

Abstract

Infrared spectra of the coordination compounds [MG₂(py)₂], M(II)=Co, Ni, Cu and Zn; G=glycolato, py=pyridine, have been fully assigned by means of py and py-d ₅ and glycolato α—OH and α—OD (G-d) labelling as well as metal ion substitution in the 4000–70cm^?1 region. The crystal structure of the Ni(II) compound is presented and the spectra of the compounds are discussed on the basis of their structure and their bonding to the glycolato and pyridine ligands. Vibrational frequencies obtained for the Ni(II) compound are compared to those obtained by calculations carried out using the Gaussian 94 program package.     

4′-(2-Methylphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine: coordination chemistry with Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ag(I)

The synthesis of 4′-(2-methylphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (L) has been improved. The coordination chemistry of the ligand was explored using Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Ag(I) ions. X-ray crystallography, elemental analysis, NMR, and mass spectrometry were used to characterize the 13 new compounds that have been synthesized. Under different reaction conditions, Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) produced discrete complexes, sometimes containing more than one metal ion, while Ag(I) furnished a polymeric spiral complex in which the central pyridine nitrogen of each terpyridine ligand bridges two Ag(I) ions. Crystallographically characterized complexes are [Ni(L)₂]Cl₂, [Ni₂Cl₄(L)₂], [Ni(L)(OH₂)₃]Cl₂, [Ni(L)₂]Br₂, [Cu(L)(OH₂)(OSO₃)], [Cu₃Cl₆(L)₂], [Cu(L)(OH)(OH₂)₂]PF₆, [Cu(L)₂](OTf)₂, [Cu(L)(OAc)₂], [Zn(L)(OAc)₂], [Zn(L)Cl₂], [Zn(L)₂](NO₃)₂, [{Ag₂(μ-L)₂(μ-NO₃)}_n](NO₃)_n.     

Synthesis and genotoxicity of Schiff base transition metal complexes

A new ONNO‐type azomethine ligand, 2,2′‐(ethane‐1,2‐diylidenedinitrilo)dibenzoic acid, (YLH₂) ( 1 ) has been prepared by the condensation of 2‐aminobenzoic acid and glyoxal. The coordination compounds [Ni(YL)] ( 2 ), [Co(YL)] ( 3 ), [Cu(YL)(H₂O)] ( 4 ), [Zn(YL)] ( 5 ), and [Cd(YL)] ( 6 ) of the YLH₂ ligand with five transition metal ions, Ni(II) Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) have been prepared. The structures of these new azomethine compounds are proposed on the basis of the elemental analyses, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and X‐ray powder diffraction patterns. Elemental analyses indicate a ligand metal ratio of 1:1 in the coordination compounds. X‐ray powder diffraction parameters for [Cu(YL)(H₂O)] and [Cd(YL)] compounds correspond to orthorhombic and monoclinic structures, respectively. The ligand acts as a tetradentate ligand bending through oxygen atoms of the hydroxyl groups of benzoic acid and nitrogen atoms of the azomethine groups. In addition, the ligand and its metal complexes have been studied for their possible genotoxic potential. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Chelating Polymers. II. Amino Acetic Acid Chelating Polymers Derived from Hydroxyarylamino Acetic Acids

The prototype dimeric chelating compounds 3,3′-methylenebis-[N(4-hydroxyphenyl) iminodiacetic acid] and 3,3′-methylenebis-[N(4-methoxyphenyl) iminodiacetic acid] were synthesized and characterized by composition analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and potentiometric titration data. Their chelating characteristics with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(l1) ions were established by composition analysis and comparative infrared spectroscopy.

The results suggest chelation and structures of the usual iminodiacetatometal complex type for the Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(I1) compounds of 3,3′methylenebis-[N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) iminodiacetic acid] and for the Cu(I1, Ni(II), and Co(I1) compounds of 3,3′-methylenebis-[N-(4-methoxyphenyl) iminodiacetic acid]. The composition analysis of each of these compounds indicates 1:2:2 mole ratios of ligand to metal ion to water. Square planar structures are proposed wherein the two iminodiacetatometal chelate moieties are essentially independent of each other.

The composition analysis of the Cu(II) compound of 3,3′-methylenebis-[N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) iminodiacetic acid] indicates a 1:2:1 mole ratio of ligand to metal ion to water. Structures are proposed in which some of the carboxylate groups are bridges between two metal coordination centers.

The composition analysis of the Zn(II) compound of 3,3′-methylenebis-[N-(4-methoxyphenyl) iminodiacetic acid] indicates a 1:1 mole ratio of ligand to metal ion. A structure is proposed in which both nitrogen atoms and two of the four carboxylate groups of the dimeric ligand are coordinated to the same metal ion.

A preliminary investigation was made of oligomeric compounds analogous to the prototype dimeric compounds.     

Spectral,magnetic and thermal studies on homometallic and heterometallic complexes of piperanol thiosemicarbazone

Piperanol thiosemicarbazone (HL) has been interacted with Ag⁺, Co(II), Ni(II) or Cu(II) binary to produce [Ag(HL)]EtOH · NO₃, [Ag₂(L)(H₂O)₂]NO₃, [Co(L)₃], [Cu(L)(H₂O)₃(OAc)]H₂O or [Ni(L)₂] and template with Ag⁺ to form [Cu₂Ag₂(L)₂(OH)₂(H₂O)₄]NO₃ and [NiAg(L)₂(H₂O)₂]NO₃. The prepared complexes are characterized by microanalysis, thermal, magnetic and spectral (IR, ¹H NMR, ESR and electronic) studies. Ag⁺ plays an important role in the complex formation. The variation in coordination may be due to the presence of two different metal ions and the preparation conditions. The outside nitrate is investigated by IR spectra. The outer sphere solvents are detected by IR and thermal analysis. Ni(II) complexes are found diamagnetic having a square-planar geometry. Cu(II) is reduced by the ligand to Cu(I). The cobalt complex is found diamagnetic confirming an air oxidation of Co(II) to Co(III) having a low spin octahedral geometry. The ligand and its metal complexes are found reducing agents which decolorized KMnO₄ solution in 2N H₂SO₄. CoNS and NiNS are the residual parts in the thermal decomposition of [Co(L)₃] and [Ni(L)₂].     

Synthesis,crystal structure and characterization of 3-thiophene aldehyde thiosemicarbazone and its complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II)

The reaction of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) chlorides and bromides with 3-thiophene aldehyde thiosemicarbazone (3TTSCH) leads to the formation of a series of new complexes: [Co(3TTSC)₂], [Ni(3TTSC)₂], [CuCl(3TTSC)]₂, [CuBr(3TTSC)]₂ and [CuBr₂(3TTSCH)]. The crystal structures of the free ligand and of the compound [Ni(3TTSC)₂] have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. For all these complexes, the central ion is coordinated through the sulfur and the azomethine nitrogen atom of the thiosemicarbazone. [Co(3TTSC)₂], [Ni(3TTSC)₂] and [CuBr₂(3TTSCH)] are mononuclear species, while [CuCl(3TTSC)]₂ and [CuBr(3TTSC)]₂ are binuclear complexes.     

Synthesis and characterization of metal complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), and silver(I) with syn-thiophene-2-aldoxime

Complexes of syn-thiophene-2-aldoxime (TDH) have been synthesised and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, molecular weight, conductance, magnetic susceptibility and i. r. spectra. These are [Co(TDH)₄Cl₂], [Co(TD)₂], [Ni(TDH)₄Cl₂], [Ni(TD)₂(TDH)], [Cu(CH₃COO)₂(TDH)]₂, [Cu(TD)(OH)]₂ and AgNO₃ · 2TDH. In these complexes the ligand (TDH) functions as monodentate (coordinating through nitrogen atom) or bidentate (coordinating through the nitrogen and sulphur atoms). The C? S stretching frequency (of the thiophene ring) at 718 cm^?1 may be taken as the criteria for the denticity of this ligand. A shift to lower frequency is observed in the complex if the ligand acts as a bidentate. However, this band is not affected if the ligand acts as monodentate.     

BINDING ABILITY OF OXINE-LIKE LIGANDS. POTENTIOMETRIC AND POLAROGRAPHIC STUDY ON Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) AND Cd(II) COMPLEXES OF 9-HYDROXYPYRIDO(1,2,-α)PYRIMIDIN-4-ONE

Abstract

Potentiometric and polarographic studies of metal ion coordination with 9-hydroxypyrido[1,2-α]pyrimidin-4-one (HPP) with Ni(II), Zn(II), Co(II) and Cd(II) ions have been carried out. For comparison, stability constants with 8-hydroxy-imidazo[1,2-α]pyridine (HIP) were also measured. Due to the low solubility of the latter ligand complexes, measurements were made also in dioxan/water solutions. In the case of both ligands the coordination mode is the same. The oxine-like binding via {N, O^?} donor set leads to formation of stable ML and ML₂ complexes. Stability constants clearly indicate that both ligands are very effective and the HPP, having a more favourable position of the electron pair on nitrogen, forms stronger complexes with smaller metal ions i.e., Ni(II), Zn(II) and Co(II). Cd(II) is better fitted to the HIP donor set.     

A nickel(II) coordination polymer derived from a tridentate Schiff base ligand with N,O-donor groups: synthesis,crystal structure,spectroscopy, electrochemical behavior and electrocatalytic activity for H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>2</Subscript> electroreduction in alkaline medium

A Ni(II) coordination polymer [C₄₂H₄₂K₂N₄Ni₄O₂₇] has been synthesized under open-air mild reaction conditions and characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The X-ray crystal structure of the complex has been obtained. The crystallographic data revealed that each metal center is in a distorted octahedral geometry where the ligand coordinates to the metal centers by a nitrogen from the imine group, an oxygen from the carboxylic acid and a phenoxide group as an endogenous bridge to the metal centers. The coordination sphere is completed by an acetate, coordinated as an exogenous bridging ligand to both nickel centers, plus one terminal water ligand on each nickel. The polymeric structure is an infinite chain involving the binuclear nickel structure and K⁺ ions. Carbon paste electrodes modified with the Ni(II) coordination polymer were prepared, and the electrochemical behavior and electrocatalytic activity toward H₂O₂ reduction were investigated. The electrochemical results suggest that this Ni(II) coordination polymer has good catalytic activity with respect to H₂O₂ reduction.     

Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) coordination compounds of dichloroguanidinopyrimidines

Summary New coordination compounds of Ni^II and Co^II with dichloropyrimidinoguanidine (L) have been obtained and characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. The complexes have the general formulae: [ML₃](ClO₄)₂, [ML₂(SO₄)], [ML₂(NCS)₂], (M = Ni or Co), [NiL₂(ClO₄)₂] and [CoL₂](ClO₄)₂. The ligands are bonded to the metal ion via one nitrogen atom from the pyrimidine heterocyclic ring and one from the guanidine group.     

Complexing behaviour of aromatic thioamides (ArCSNHCOR). Transition metal complexes of N-carboethoxy-4-chlorobenzene- and N-carboethoxy-4-bromobenzene thioamide ligands

N-Carboethoxy-4-chlorobenzene thioamide (Hcct or HL) and N-carboethoxy-4-bromobenzene thioamide (Hcbt or HL) react with bivalent (Ni, Co, Cu, Ru, Pd and Pt), trivalent (Ru and Rh) and tetravalent (Pt) transition metal ions to give [M^II(L)₂], [Ru^III(L)₃], [Rh^III(L)(HL)Cl₂] and [Pt(L)₂Cl₂] complexes, respectively. In the presence of pyridine, Co^II and Ni^II salts react with the ligands (HL) to give [M^II(L)₂Py] (M = Co and Ni) complexes. Soft metal ions abstract sulphur from the ligands to yield the corresponding sulphide, together with oxygenated forms of the ligands. All the metal complexes have been characterised by chemical analyses, conductivity, spectroscopic and magnetic measurements.     

Synthesis,Structures, and Magnetic Properties of New Thiocyanato Coordination Polymers with 4‐(3‐Phenylpropyl)pyridine as Ligand

The reaction of different metal salts with 4‐(3‐phenylpropyl)pyridine (ppp) lead to the formation of compounds of composition M(NCS)₂(ppp)₄ [M = Mn ( Mn‐1 ); Fe ( Fe‐1 ), Ni ( Ni‐1 ); Cd ( Cd‐1 )], M(NCS)₂(ppp)₂(H₂O)₂ [M = Mn ( Mn‐2 ); Ni ( Ni‐2 )] and [M(NCS)₂(ppp)₂]_n [M = Mn ( Mn‐3 ); Ni ( Ni‐3 ); Cd ( Cd‐3 )]. On heating compounds M‐1 decompose without the formation of any ppp deficient intermediate. In contrast, on heating, Ni‐2 transforms into a compound of composition M(NCS)₂(ppp)₂ that does not correspond to Ni‐3 . Unfortunately, this compound is of low crystallinity and therefore, its structure cannot be determined. The crystal structures of compounds M‐1 and M‐2 consist of discrete complexes, in which the metal cations are octahedrally coordinated. In compounds M‐3 the metal cations are linked by pairs of μ‐1,3‐bridging anions into chains. IR spectroscopic investigations show, that the value of the asymmetric CN stretching vibration depend on the coordination mode of the anionic ligand as well as on the nature of the metal cation. Magnetic measurements reveal that Ni‐3 shows only Curie‐Weiss behavior without any magnetic anomaly. A similar behavior is also found for Ni‐3 . Comparison of the magnetic properties of Ni‐3 with those of similar compounds indicates that the magnetic properties are only minor influenced by the Co‐ligand.     

Pseudoelementverbindungen. VIII. [1]. Zum Komplexbildungsverhalten von potentiell ambidenten Aryl-cyanamidosulfonat-Liganden

Pseudoelement Compounds. VIII. [1]. On the Coordination Behaviour of Potential Ambidentate Aryl-cyanamidosulfonate Ligands Aryl-cyanamidosulfonates form with metal(II) ions (Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg, Pd, Pt) complexes of the types MX₂, [MX₂L₂], [MX₂L₄] and [MX₄]^2?. The ionic, potentially ambidentate ligand [RSO₂NCN]^? is monodentately coordinated via the terminal nitrogen atom and bidentately in a bridging function through the nitrile group end-on (equatorial) and one of the two sulfonyl oxygen atoms (axial). The new compounds are characterized by means of ir and uv-vis spectroscopy. In the case of [Ni(NCNSO₂C₆H₄Me-4)₂(py)₄] the molecular and crystal structure was determined.     

Formation of polymeric chain assemblies of transition metal complexes with a multidentate Schiff-base

The new multidentate Schiff-base (E)-6,6′-((1E,1′E)-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(azan-1-yl-1-ylidene))bis(methan-1-yl-ylidene))bis(4-methyl-2-((E)(pyridine-2-ylmethylimino)methyl)phenol) H₂L and its polymeric binuclear metal complexes with Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) are reported. The reaction of 2,6-diformyl-4-methyl-phenol with ethylenediamine in mole ratios of 2:1 gave the precursor 3,3′-(1E,1′E)-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(azan-1-yl-1ylidene))bis(methan-1-yl-1-ylidene)bis(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde) W. Condensation of the precursor with 2-(amino-methyl)pyridine in mole ratios of 1:2 gave the new N₆O₂ multidentate Schiff-base ligand H₂L. Upon complex formation, the ligand behaves as a dibasic octadentate species with the involvement of the nitrogen atoms of the pyridine groups in coordination for all complexes. The mode of bonding and overall geometry of the complexes were determined through physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. These studies revealed octahedral geometries for Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) complexes of general formulae [Cr₂^III(L)Cl₂]Cl₂, [Ni₂^II(L)(H₂O)₂]Cl₂ and [M₂(L)Cl₂] and five co-ordinate Zn(II) complex of general formula [Zn₂^II(L)]Cl₂.     

A novel dimeric zinc(II) complex with a tripodal peptide ligand: a structure stabilized by ligand sharing

The crystal structure of a novel dimeric zinc(II) complex, [ZnL(H₂O)]₂(ClO₄)₂·4H₂O (L?=?N-(bis(2-pyridyl)methyl)-2-pyridinecarboxamide), has been determined by X-ray diffraction. In this complex each planar N_py–N_amido–N_py moiety of the ligand coordinates to one zinc ion and the pendant pyridine of one [ZnL] unit completes the coordination sphere of a [ZnL] neighbor. Units of the complex are connected in a two-dimensional network by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The thermodynamic properties of the ligand with bivalent metal ions Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) were studied by potentiometric titration and the order of the stability constants is in agreement with the Irving–Williams series. The dimeric complex is stabilized through ligand sharing, as confirmed by the crystal structure and thermodynamic properties.     

FT-IR spectroscopic investigation of transition metal (II) 2-aminopyridine tetracyanonickelate complexes

A series of Hofmann-type clathrate host molecules containing two 2-aminopyridine (2-Apy) groups attached to transition metal (II) (M) tetracyanonickelate frame, with the formula: M(2Apy)₂Ni(CN)₄ (where M=Mn, Co, Cu or Zn), have been synthesised for the first time. Their FT-IR spectra are reported in the 400–4000 cm⁻¹ region. The spectral features suggest that the compounds are substantially isostructural to that of already known Hofmann type pyridine complex; M(py)₂Ni(CN)₄. Moreover, 2Apy pyridine molecules are found to involve coordination through the ring nitrogen. The coordination effect on the 2Apy modes was analysed.     

Investigation of mononuclear,dinuclear, and trinuclear transition metal (II) complexes derived from an asymmetric Salamo‐based ligand possessing three different coordination modes

A new asymmetric Salamo‐based ligand H₂L was synthesized using 3‐tert‐butyl‐salicylaldehyde and 6‐methoxy‐2‐[O‐(1‐ethyloxyamide)]‐oxime‐1‐phenol. By adjusting the ratio of the ligand H₂L and Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) ions, mononuclear, dinuclear, and trinuclear transition metal (II) complexes, [Cu(L)], [{Co(L)}₂], and [{Ni(L)(CH₃COO)(CH₃CH₂OH)}₂Ni] with the ligand H₂L possessing completely different coordination modes were obtained, respectively. The optical spectra of ligand H₂L and its Cu (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) complexes were investigated. The Cu (II) complex is a mononuclear structure, and the Cu (II) atom is tetracoordinated to form a planar quadrilateral structure. The Co (II) complex is dinuclear, and the two Co (II) atoms are pentacoordinated and have coordination geometries of distorted triangular bipyramid. The Ni (II) complex is a trinuclear structure, and the terminal and central Ni (II) atoms are all hexacoordinated, forming distorted octahedral geometries. Furthermore, optical properties including UV–Vis, IR, and fluorescence of the Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) complexes were investigated. Finally, the antibacterial activities of the Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) complexes were explored. According to the experimental results, the inhibitory effect was found to be enhanced with increasing concentrations of the Cu (II), Co (II), and Ni (II) complexes.     

Studies on the reaction products of bis(2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazidato)m(II) with pyridine-2- and -4-carboxaldehydes

Condensation of bis(2-furanthiocarboxyhydradatometal(II), M(fth)₂; [M (II) = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn] with pyridine-2- and -4-carboxaldehydes gave complexes of the formula M(pfth)₂ [pfth? = pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde-2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazonato], Ni(Ifth)₂, Zn(Ifth)₂, Cu(Ifth) and Co(Ifth)₃, (Ifth? = pyridine-4-carboxaldehyde-2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazonato). The magnetic and electronic spectral studies coupled with photoacoustic or Mössbauer spectra suggested octahedral geometry for the M(II) complexes with low-spin states for Co(Ifth)₃ and Fe(pfth)₂. IR and ¹H NMR spectral studies of diamagnetic complexes suggested bonding through “azomethine” nitrogen and “thiolo” sulphur. IR spectra also showed the involvement of pyridine ring nitrogen in coordination in all the complexes except Cu(Itfh), Co(Ifth)₃, and Zn(Ifth)₂. Some of the compounds possessed antimicrobial activity.     

四个对苯酚四唑硫酮金属(II)配合物的合成和晶体结构

四唑酸(–CN4H)与羧酸(–COOH)具有相似的酸性。对苯酚四唑硫酮(H2L)可以作为单齿(–S或–N)或双齿(–N, N或–N, S)配体与金属离子配位形成配位化合物。合成了4个以H2L为配体的金属(II)配合物：Co(HL)2(Py)2(H2O)2 (1), [Mn(HL)2(H2O)4]·2H2O (2), Mn(HL)2(Phen)2 (3), and [Zn(HL)2(Phen)2]·0.5H2O·1.5CH3OH (4),并用X−射线单晶衍射法测定了晶体结构。晶体结构分析表明,在这些配合物中所有的中心金属原子均呈现六配位的八面体构型。在配合物1和2中,HL–配体以氧原子与中心金属原子配位,而在配合物3和4中HL–配体则以硫原子与中心金属原子配位。
