Speciation of water-soluble titanium citrate: Synthesis,structural, spectroscopic properties and biological relevance

Titanium(IV) citrate complexes with different anions Na₃[Ti(H₂cit)₂(Hcit)] · 9H₂O (1), K₄[Ti(H₂cit)(Hcit)₂] · 4H₂O (2), K₅[Ti(Hcit)₃] · 4H₂O (3) and Na₇[TiH(cit)₃] · 18H₂O (4) (H₄cit = citric acid) were isolated in pure forms from the solutions of titanate and citrate at various pH values. X-ray structural analyses revealed the presence of a monomeric tricitrato titanium unit in the four complexes. Each Ti(IV) ion is coordinated octahedrally by the three citrate ligands in different protonated forms. The citrate ligand chelates bidentately to the titanium ion through its negatively charged α-alkoxy and α-carboxy groups. This is consistent with the large downfield ¹³C NMR shifts for the carbon atoms bearing the α-alkoxy and α-carboxy groups. The very strong hydrogen-bonds existing in the protonated and deprotonated β-carboxy groups may be the key factor for the stabilization of the titanium citrate complexes. When the pH value is lower than 7.0, ¹³C NMR spectra of 1:3 Ti:citrate solutions are similar to those of the titanium citrate complexes isolated at the corresponding pH values. The dissociation of free citrate increases with the rise of pH value. However, ¹³C NMR spectra of 1:3 Ti:citrate solutions indicate that there may exist different citrate titanium species when the pH value is higher than 7.0.     

Synthesis and characterization of solid molybdenum(VI) complexes with glycolic,mandelic and tartaric acids. Photochemistry behaviour of the glycolate molybdenum complex

The complexes (NH₄)₂[MoO₂(C₂H₂O₃)₂]·H₂O, (NH₄)₂[MoO₂(C₈H₆O₃)₂] and (NH₄)₂[MoO₃(C₄H₄O₆)]·H₂O were prepared by reaction of MoO₃ with glycolic, mandelic and tartaric acids, respectively. The complexes were characterized by elemental and thermal analysis, IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Crystals of the glycolate and tartarate complexes are orthorhombic and the mandelate complex is monoclinic. Elemental and thermal analysis data showed that the glycolate and tartarate complexes are monohydrated. Hydration water is not present in the structure of the mandelate complex. IR spectra showed COO^? is involved in coordination as well as the oxygen atom of the deprotonated hydroxyl group of the α-carbon. The glycolate molybdenum complexes with general formula M₂[MoO₂(C₂H₂O₃)₂]·nH₂O, where M is an alkali metal and n?=?1 or ½, were also prepared and characterized. Aqueous solutions of the glycolate complex become blue and mandelate and tartarate complexes change to yellow or brown when exposed to UV-radiation.     

Solid and solution study of tetranuclear zinc citrates with N-donor chelates

Tetranuclear zinc(II) citrates with N-heterocycle ligand, [Zn₄(Hcit)₂(phen)₄(H₂O)₄]·2NO₃·10H₂O (1) and [Zn₄(Hcit)₂(bpy)₄(H₂O)₆]·2NO₃·12H₂O (2) (H₄cit?=?citric acid, phen?=?1,10-phenanthroline, bpy?=?2,2′-bipyridine), were synthesized from aqueous solution and characterized by Infrared, Powder X-ray diffraction, fluorescence spectra, and X-ray structural analyses. Complexes 1 and 2 are centrosymmetric tetranuclear species with two crystallographically independent Zn(II) ions, which display different coordination geometries, while the citrate ligand shows similar coordination modes and bridges three different Zn ions. In 1, the Zn1 is five-coordinate by three oxygens from two citrates and two nitrogens from phen. There exist weak interactions between Zn1 and O4a atom of β-carboxy group of citrate (Zn1?O4a?=?2.895?Å). Zn2 is six-coordinate by two oxygens from one citrate, two nitrogens from phen, and two water molecules. Zn1 and Zn2 are bridged by one citrate to form a dinuclear unit, which is further extended to a tetranuclear unit. In 2, two citrates bridge two pairs of symmetry-related Zn(II) ions into a tetranuclear unit. The structural analyses of 1 and 2 indicate that different tetranuclear species are caused by arrangement of citrates with different steric hindrance of N-chelates. ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra indicate that 2 remains coordinated in D₂O. Moreover, both 1 and 2 show strong fluorescent emission in dilute solution and solid state.     

Asymmetric dinuclear hydroxyl and ethoxyl citrato dioxovanadates(V)

Asymmetric citrato dioxovanadates(V), [Hneo]₄[V₂O₄(R-Hcit)(OH)][V₂O₄(S-Hcit)(OH)]?·?4H₂O (1) and [Ni(phen)₃]₂[V₂O₄(R-Hcit)(OC₂H₅)][V₂O₄(S-Hcit)(OC₂H₅)]?·?4H₂O (2) and (H₄cit?=?citric acid, neo?=?2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, phen?=?1,10-phenanthroline) are isolated with the help of large counterions. Structural analyses of complexes 1 and 2 show that vanadium atoms are coordinated by tridentate citrate ligand and hydroxy or ethoxy groups, respectively. The insertions of hydroxy and ethoxy groups give new examples of the mixed RO-bridges for vanadium–citrate complexes.

In (NH₄)₄[Sm^III₂(dtpa)₂]·10H₂O, there are two types of ammonium cations, which connect [Sm^III₂(dtpa)₂]^4? and lattice water through hydrogen bonds, leading to a 2-D ladder-like layer structure.

The cations, anions, and the lattice water molecules in 1 and 2 are linked by weak H-bonding interactions.     

Polymeric architectures of bismuth citrate based on dimeric building blocks

Four bismuth complexes, (H₂En)[Bi₂(cit)₂(H₂O)_4/3]·(H₂O) _x (1), (H₂En)₃[Bi₂(cit)₂Cl₄]·(H₂O) _x (2), (HPy)₂[Bi₂(cit)₂(H₂O)_8/5]·(H₂O) _x (3) and (H₂En)[Bi₂(cit)₂](H₂O) _x (4) [cit = citrate^4?; En = ethylenediamine; Py = pyridine] have been synthesized and crystallized. The crystal structures reveal that the basic building blocks in all of these complexes are bismuth citrate dimeric units which combine to form polymeric architectures. The embedded protonated ethylenediamine and pyridine moieties in the polymeric frameworks have been identified by X-ray crystallography and solid-state cross polarization/magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) ¹³C NMR.

Two inclusion compounds of guanylthiourea and 1,3,5-thiadiazole-5-amido-2-carbamate

In the crystal structure of [(n-C₄H₉)₄N]⁺·[NH₂(C₂N₂S)NHCOO^?]·NH₂CSNC(NH₂)₂ (1), guanylthiourea molecules and 1,3,5-thiadiazole-5-amido-2-carbamate ions are joined together by intermolecular N–H…O, N–H…N, and weak N–H…S hydrogen bonds to generate stacked host layers corresponding to the (110) family of planes, between which the tetra-n-butylammonium guest cations are orderly arranged in a sandwich-like manner. In the crystal structure of [(n-C₃H₇)₄N]⁺·[NH₂(C₂N₂S)NHCOO^?]·NH₂CSNC(NH₂)₂·H₂O (2), the tetrapropyl ammonium cations are stacked within channels each composed of hydrogen bonded ribbons of guanylthiourea molecules, 1,3,5-thiadiazole-5-amido-2-carbamate ions and water molecules.

The [Mo(CN)₈]^4– groups of the three compounds, prepared at about 275 K and easily decomposing, show but slightly distorted dodecahedral coordination (mean distances Mo–C: 216.3, 215.4 and 216.1 pm). Within the monoclinic complexes the anions twodimensionally form cyano bridges to the ammin cations [M(NH₃)₄]²⁺ and are connected with the resulting [MN₆] octahedra (Co–N: 215.1 pm, Ni–N: 209.8 pm) into strongly puckered layers. The trigonal complex exhibits a chain structure, as one [Ni(NH₃)₅]²⁺ cation is only bound as terminal octahedron (Ni–N: 212.0 pm). Details and the influence of hydrogen bridges are discussed.     

Structural diversity controlled by alkali/alkaline earth metals for heterometallic AeI/AeII-ZnII coordination polymers based on 4-nitrobenzene-1,2-dicarboxylate

Six heterometallic Zn(II) coordination polymers, Zn(H₂O)₃(FNA) (1), [NH₄]₂[Zn(H₂O)₂(FNA)₂] (2), [ZnNa₂(FNA)₂]·3H₂O (3), [ZnK₂(FNA)₂]·H₂O (4), [ZnRb₂(FNA)₂]·2H₂O (5) and [ZnMg(FNA)₂]·4H₂O (6) (H₂FNA = 4-nitrobenzene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid), were synthesised by introducing different alkali/alkaline earth (Ae^I/Ae^II) metals. These complexes exhibit diverse structures with the different Ae^I/Ae^II metals used and distinct ligand coordination modes the ions provide. For 1 and 2, the Zn(II) centres with distorted octahedra are connected by FNA to form 1-D chain structures. The Zn(II) centres in 3–6 with distorted tetrahedra are linked by FNA to form 2-D anionic grid layers. For 3–5, these 2-D anionic grid layers are connected by alkali metal (Na, K and Rb) with the O–Ae^I–O connectivity to exhibit 3-D framework structures, while 6 features a 2-D Zn–Mg network. Luminescence properties of 1–6 have been investigated.

Three new salts of tetrahedral rhenium chalcocyanide cluster anions [Re₄Q₄(CN)₁₂]^4? (Q = S, Se, Te) and 1,10-phenanthroline-1-ium cations, (phenH)₄[Re₄S₄(CN)₁₂]·6H₂O (1), (phenH)₄[Re₄Se₄(CN)₁₂]·6H₂O (2), and (phenH)₄[Re₄Te₄(CN)₁₂]·10H₂O (3), have been synthesized by reactions of K₄[Re₄Q₄(CN)₁₂]·nH₂O with 1,10-phenanthroline in the presence of Nd³⁺ in an acidic aqueous medium (pH 4). 1 and 2 exhibit similar 2-D layered supramolecular architectures based on hydrogen bonds between water molecules, CN-groups of cluster anions, and phenH⁺ cations. The latter are involved in π–π and C–H?π stacking interactions, connecting the adjacent layers with each other. Complex 3 demonstrates a 3-D framework based on hydrogen bonds between water molecules and CN-groups, π–π and C–H?π interactions. Notably short O···Te contacts of 3.40 and 3.50 Å are found in the structure of 3. The thermal properties of 1–3 have been investigated by TG-DTG.

Two new inorganic–organic hybrid cobalt phosphomolybdates (Hdien)₂[Co(dien)]₂[Co(dien)(H₂O)]₂[CoMo₁₂O₂₄(HPO₄)₂(H₂PO₄)₂(PO₄)₄(OH)₆]?···?5H₂O (1) and (H₂dien)₂[Co(dien)]₂[Co(H₂O)₂]₂[CoMo₁₂O₂₄(HPO₄)₄(PO₄)₄(OH)₆]?···?7H₂O (2) (dien?=?diethylenetriamine), involving molybdenum in the V oxidation state and covalently bonded transition metal complexes, have been prepared under mild hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra, TG analyses, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 exhibits a one-dimensional (1D) chain framework, in which dien molecules adopt two kinds of coordination modes.

Decavanadates with complex cations, (NH₄)₂[Zn(H₂O)₅(NH₃CH₂CH₂COO)]₂V₁₀O₂₈·4H₂O (4) and (NH₄)₂[Mn(H₂O)₅(NH₃CH₂CH₂COO)]₂V₁₀O₂₈·2H₂O (5), have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, i.r., Raman, UV–vis. and ⁵¹V-n.m.r. spectroscopies and by thermal analysis. The X-ray structure determination revealed, both in 4 and 5, the presence of complex cations with hexacoordinated central atoms and monodentate β-alanine ligands, and decavanadate V₁₀O₂₈ ⁶⁻ anions. The differences in the structural arrangement in 4 and 5 are probably a consequence of the different ionic radii of Zn²⁺ and Mn²⁺ (high spin).
