Water-soluble cobalt complexes with 1-hydroxyethylydenediphosphonic acid and 2-aminoethanol

The reaction of an aqueous suspension of basic cobalt carbonate CoCO₃·4Co(OH)₂·3H₂O with equimolar amount or two-fold excess of 1-hydroxyethylydenediphosphonic acid (H₄L) has yielded crystalline CoH₂L and amorphous Co(H₃L)₂ products, respectively. The interaction of poorly soluble CoH₂L complex with 2-aminoethanol has resulted in the formation of amorphous water-soluble CoH₂L·H₂NCH₂CH₂OH·6Н₂О complex; the latter loses 5 water molecules at heating and is converted into CoH₂L·H₂NCH₂CH₂OH·Н₂О. The study of agrochemical effects of Co(H₃L)₂ and CoH₂L·H₂NCH₂CH₂OH·6Н₂О has revealed their advantage over the conventional salt form (cobalt sulfate) reflected in the reduced phytotoxicity of the element. The prepared compound containing 2-aminoethanol (solubility promotor) has revealed better performance.     

Water-soluble double potassium and ammonium salts of iron(III) and manganese(II) with (hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonic acid

A method to multifold increase the water solubility of diiron(III) tris[(hydroxyethylidene)-diphosphonate) tetrahydrate Fe₂(H₂L)₃·4H₂O and manganese(II) (hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonate dihydrate MnH₂L·2H₂O, prepared by the reaction of 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid with iron(III)hydroxide and basic manganese carbonate. The method involves conversion of the phosphonates into their double salts Fe₂K₆L₃·4H₂O [Fe₂(NH₄)₆L₃·4H₂O] and MnK_1.3H_0.7L·2H₂O [Mn(NH₄)₂L·2H₂O] by treatment of their aqueous suspensions with potassium or ammonium hydroxides. The solubility of the iron salt increases from 0.2 to 4.0 g per 100 mL solution (20 times) and that of the manganese salt increases from 0.1 to 4.8 g per 100 mL solution (45 times).     

Preparation of Iron(II) Water-Soluble Compounds Based on Iron(0), (1-Hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonic Acid,and Organic Amines

The reaction of aqueous suspension of finely dispersed iron with one equivalent of (1-hydroxyethylidene) diphosphonic acid (H4L) results in poorly soluble iron(II) (1-hydroxyethylidene)diphosphate FeH₂L·H₂O. The reaction with two equivalents of the acid gives a water-soluble compound Fe(H₃L)₂, which undergoes disproportionation up to FeH₂L·H₂O and H₄L. The reaction of a FeH₂L·H₂O aqueous suspension with an organic amine results in the dissolution of the complex. Heating the FeH₂L·H₂O aqueous suspension in a pressure reactor at 150°C in the presence of KF catalytic amounts causes the formation of a new crystal phase and X-ray-amorphous admixtures.     

Organic phosphorus compounds : LXXI. Preparation,properties, and structure of bis(aminomethyl)phosphinic acid, (H2NCH2)2P(O)OH

Bis(aminomethyl)phosphinic acid, (H₂NCH₂)₂P(O)OH · HCl, was prepared by debenzylation of (C₆H₅CH₂NHCH₂)₂P(O)OH · HCl with hydrogen using 5% Pd on C as catalyst, and from bis(t-butylaminomethyl)phosphinic acid, (t-C₄H₉NHCH₂)₂P(O)OH, by isobutylene elimination in concentrated aqueous hydrobromic acid at 175°C in sealed tube. Interaction of bis(chloromethyl)phosphinic acid with ammonia in an autoclave produced methylaminomethylphosphinic acid, CH₃NHCH₂P(O)(OH)₂. A mechanism for the formation of this product is proposed. Several derivatives of (H₂NCH₂)P(O)OH such as (RNHCH₂)₂P(O)OH, R = C₆H₅CO, CICH₂CO, [H₂NHNC(=NH)NHCH₂]₂P(O)OH and [(CH₃)₃SiNHCH₂]₂P(O)OSi(CH₃)₃ were prepared.     

Coumarin-naphthohydrazone ligand with a rare coordination mode to form Mn(II) and Co(II) 1-D coordination polymers: synthesis,characterization, and crystal structure

The hydrazone (E)-3-hydroxy-N’-(1-(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)ethylidene)-2-naphthohydrazide (H₂L) was synthesized from the reaction of 3-acetylcoumarin and 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic hydrazide in methanol. Compounds [Mn(H₂L)(NO₃)₂(CH₃OH)]·CH₃OH (1a), [Mn(HL)(NO₃)(CH₃OH)]_n (1b), [Co(HL)(NO₃)(CH₃OH)]_n (2), and [Cu(HL)(NO₃)] (3) were obtained by reaction of an equimolar amount of H₂L with nitrate salts of Mn(II), Co(II), or Cu(II) in methanol. The reaction of ligand and Mn(NO₃)₂·4H₂O was also carried out in the presence of sodium azide which led to the 1-D coordination polymer, [Mn(HL)(N₃)(CH₃OH)]_n (4). All of the synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic methods. Single-crystal X-ray analysis of 1–4 indicated that H₂L is neutral (in 1a) or mononegative ligand (in 1b, 2, 3 and 4). In 1b, 2 and 4 the 1-D polymeric chain is found by a rare coordination mode of this kind of hydrazone ligand since the naphtholic oxygen is coordinated to the neighboring metal ions while the NH moiety of hydrazone remains intact, also confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopic studies. The thermal stability of 2 and 4 were also studied from 30–1000 °C.     

Preparation of water-soluble iron and manganese chelates with oxyethylidenediphosphonic acid

The following water-soluble iron(III) and manganese(II) chelate complexes were obtained via the reaction of 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (H₄L) with ferric hydroxide or basic manganese carbonate: Fe₂(H₂L)₃·4H₂O, Fe(H₃L)₃·4H₂O, MnH₂L·2H₂O, and Mn(H₃L)₂·4H₂O. The complexes solubility was of 33.0, 1.40, 0.1, and 0.4 g in 100 mL of water, respectively. The amorphous Fe₂(H₂L)₃·4H₂O underwent structural changes upon storage, its solubility decreasing. The prepared compounds are recommended for use as micro-fertilizers for drip irrigation of crops.     

Decomposition of zinc (1-hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonate induced by aliphatic amines and ammonia. Molecular structures of ammonium (1-hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonates

A suspension of sparingly soluble zinc (1-hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonate ZnH₂L?2H₂O (H₄L = MeC(OH)[P(O)(OH)₂]₂) is rapidly transformed into an aqueous solution when treated with ammonia or aliphatic amines (hexamethylenediamine, triethylamine, tert-butylamine, di-n-butylamine) containing no hydrophilic groups ?OH and ?(OCH₂CH₂)_n?. The dissolution effect is due to the decomposition of the coordination polymer giving ammonium derivatives. Dehydrated dry powders of the corresponding ammonium compounds based on triethylamine, tert-butylamine, or di-n-butylamine rapidly dissolve in water to form transparent colorless solutions, whereas hexamethylenediamine and ammonia derivatives are poorly soluble. (1-Hydroxyethylidene)diphosphonic acid forms ammonium salts with hexamethylenediamine, triethylamine, and tert-butylamine. The molecular structures of these compounds are considered.

Neutral manganese and nickel complexes of the empirical formulae Mn(H₂daps)(H₂O)_0.5 and Ni(H₂daps) · (H₂O)_1.5(CH₃CN) have been prepared by electrochemical syntheses. The structures of the complexes formed from solvents with different donor ability were investigated. Recrystallisation of Mn(H₂daps)(H₂O)_0.5 from pyridine and ethanol yields [Mn(H₂daps)(py)₂] 1 and [Mn(H₂daps)(C₂H₅OH) · (H₂O)] 2 . Slow evaporation of dichloromethane and methanol solutions of Ni(H₂daps)(H₂O)_1.5(CH₃CN) allows the isolation of single crystals of [Ni₂(H₂daps)₂] · CH₂Cl₂ 4 and [Ni₂(H₂daps)₂(CH₃OH)₂] · 3 CH₃OH · H₂O 5 , suitable for X‐ray diffraction studies. Recrystallisation of 4 from pyridine yields [Ni₂(H₂daps)₂(py)₂] · CH₂Cl₂ 6 , previously characterised by us. This study shows the versatility of the H₄daps ligand and the influence that the crystallisation solvent can have on the crystal structure of these complexes.

Cyclic voltammograms of the manganese complexes indicate a quasireversible Mn³⁺/Mn²⁺ couple. The X-band EPR spectrum of the complexes exhibits a six-line manganese hyperfine pattern with g?=?2, A?=?97 (1) and 93?G (2). The spectrum confirms that the material is high-spin Mn(II).
