Thermochemistry of Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes with N,N-di-n-butyl-N′-thenoylthiourea and N,N-di-iso-butyl-N′-thenoylthiourea

Two substituted N-acylthioureas and the respective Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes were synthesized, namely: N,N-di-n-butyl-N′-thenoylthiourea (Hnbtu); N,N-di-iso-butyl-N′-thenoylthiourea (Hibtu); bis[N,N-di-n-butyl-N′-thenoylthioureato]nickel(II), [Ni(nbtu)₂]; bis[N,N-di-n-butyl-N′-thenoylthioureato]copper(II), [Cu(nbtu)₂]; bis[N,N-di-iso-butyl-N′-thenoylthioureato]nickel(II), [Ni(ibtu)₂]; bis[N,N-di-iso-butyl-N′-thenoylthioureato]copper(II), [Cu(ibtu)₂]. The standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of formation and sublimation of the two N-acylthioureas were measured, at T = 298.15 K, by rotating-bomb combustion calorimetry and Calvet microcalorimetry, respectively. The standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of formation of the Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes were determined, at T = 298.15 K, by high precision solution–reaction calorimetry. From the results obtained, the enthalpies of hypothetical metal–ligand and metal–metal exchange reactions, in the gaseous phase, were derived, thus allowing a discussion of the gaseous phase energetic difference between the complexation of Ni(II) and Cu(II) to 1,3-ligand systems with (S,O) ligator atoms.     

Antimicrobial studies of N - N ′-dicarboxydiethyloxamide and its Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes

Neutral complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) have been synthesized from the oxamide-based ligand derived from leucine and diethyloxalate. The structural features have been deduced from their microanalytical, IR, UV/Vis, mass, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data. The Co(II) and Ni(II) chelates have octahedral geometries and the Cu(II) chelate is a square-pyramidal geometry. The non-electrolytic and monomeric nature of the complexes is shown by their magnetic susceptibility and low conductance data. The biological activities of the ligand and its metal chelates against gram-positive and negative bacteria and fungi are also reported. All the compounds are antimicrobially active and show higher activity than the free ligand.     

Synthesis and characterisation of Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes with 5-bromo-N,N′-bis-(salicylidene)-o-tolidine

New complexes of type [M(HL)(CH₃COO)(OH₂)_m]·nH₂O (where M:Co, m = 2, n = 2; M:Ni, m = 2, n = 1.5; M:Zn, m = 0, n = 2.5 and M:Cd, m = 0, n = 0; H₂L:5-bromo-N,N′-bis-(salicylidene)-o-tolidine) have been synthesized and characterized by microanalytical, IR, UV–Vis-NIR and magnetic data. Electronic spectra of Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes are characteristic for an octahedral stereochemistry. The IR spectra indicate a chelate coordination mode for mono-deprotonated Schiff base and a bidentate one for acetate ion. The thermal transformations are complex according to TG and DTA curves including dehydration, acetate decomposition and oxidative degradation of the Schiff base. The final product of decomposition is the most stable metallic oxide.     

2,4′-Bipyridyl complexes with cobalt(II) and nickel(II)

The thermal decomposition of the complexes was also investigated.Author to whom all correspondence should be directed.     

4,4′-Bipyridine complexes of molybdenum(II) and tungsten(II)

Treatment of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with two equivalents of 4,4-bipyridine (4,4-bipy) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature gave the MeCN displaced products, [MI₂(CO)₃(4,4-bipy-N)₂] (1) and (2). Equimolar amounts of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] and L (L = PPh₃, AsPh₃ or SbPh₃) react to give [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)L], which when reacted in situ with 4,4-bipy yield the new complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃(4,4-bipy-N)L] (3)–(8). Reaction of equimolar quantities of [WI₂(CO)(NCMe)( ²-RC₂R)₂] (R = Me or Ph) and 4,4-bipy gave the new bis(alkyne) complexes, [WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N)( ²-RC₂R)₂] (9) and (10). Treatment of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with two equivalents of (9) or (10) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature affords the bimetallic complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃{WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N,N)( ²-RC₂R)₂}₂] (11)–(14). Equimolar quantities of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)(PPh₃)] (prepared in situ) and (9) or (10), react to give the 4,4-bipy-bridged complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃{WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N,N)( ²-RC₂R)₂}(PPh₃)] (15)–(18). All the new complexes, (1)–(18) were characterised by elemental analysis (C, H and N), i.r. and ¹H-n.m.r. spectroscopy.     

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.     

Palladium(II) and platinum(II)-C(3)-substituted 2,2′-bipyridines

Reaction of Pd(OAc)₂ with HL¹ and HL² (HL¹=6-iso-propyl-2,2-bipyridine; HL²=6-neo-pentyl-2,2-bipyridine), followed by treatment with LiCl or KI, gives [PdCl(L¹)]₂, (1), [PdCl(L²)]₂ (2), and [PdI(L²)]₂ (3), respectively. The chloride bridge in complexes1 and2 is split by PPh³ to give the mononuclear species PdCl(L¹)(PPh₃) (4) and PdCl(L²)(PPh₃) (5). Spectroscopic data provide evidence for coordination of the deprotonated ligands through a nitrogen and the C₍₃₎ atom of the 6-substituted pyridine. An analogous platinum complex PtCl(L³)(SMe₂) (6) (HL³=6-tert-butyl-2,2-bipyridine) was obtained from trans-PtClMe(SMe₂)₂ and HL³. The crystal structures of compounds1 and6 have been solved by X-ray diffraction analysis.Dipartimento di Chimica, Universita di Sassari, via Vienna 2, I-07100 Sassari, Italy; Dipartimento di Chimica Strutturale e Stereochimica Inorganica, Universita di Milano, Centro CNR, I-20133 Milano, Italy; Published in Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1127–1137, August, 1999.     

Complexes of N-aroyl-N′-thiobenzohydrazide with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II)

Summary New potential tetradentate ligands, N-benzoyl-N-thiobenzohydrazide (H₂BTBH) and N-salicyl-N-thiobenzohydrazide (H₂SBTH) have been prepared and characterized. Their complexes with Co^II, Ni^II and Zn^II have been prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and u.v.-vis., i.r. and ¹H-n.m.r. spectral studies. The bonding and stereochemistries of the complexes are discussed. H₂BTBH, H₂SBTH and the complexes have been screened towards a number of bacteria.     

Complex formation of Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Co(II), and Cd(II) acetates with 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-hexamethyldipyrrolylmethene

The reactions of complex formation of Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II) acetates with 3,3′,4,4′5,5′-hexamethyl-2,2′-dipyrrolylmethene (HL) in DMF were studied by the electronic spectroscopy and calorimetric titration methods at 298.15 K. The main products of the above reactions are [ML₂] chelates. In the case of Cu and Ni salts, the process occurs through the spectrally recorded stage of formation of the heteroligand [ML(AcO)] complexes. The reaction with Cd acetate terminates at the stage of the heteroligand complex formation due to the large radius and decreasing electron affinity of the Cd²⁺ ion. The effect of the metal nature appears in the increasing thermodynamic stability of single-type complexes in the series [ML₂]: Ni(II) < Zn(II) < Co(II) < Cu(II) and [ML(AcO)]: Cd(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II).     

Microwave assisted synthesis and characterization of N,N′-bis(salicylaldehydo)ethylenediimine complexes of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II)

Microwave chemistry is a green chemical method that improves reaction conditions and product yields while reducing solvent amounts and reaction times. The main aim of this article is to synthesize the tetradentate N₂O₂ ligand [HO(Ar)CH=N–(CH₂)₂–N=CH(Ar)OH] and manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), and zinc(II) complexes of the type ML by classical and microwave techniques. The resulting Schiff base and its complexes are characterized by ¹H NMR, infrared, elemental analysis, and electronic spectral data. The ligand and its Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes were further identified by X-ray diffraction and mass spectra to confirm the structure. The results suggest that the metal is bonded to the ligand through the phenolic oxygen and the imino nitrogen.     

Photochemical Behavior of Platinum(II) and Palladium(II) Complexes of 4,4′-Dimethyl-2,2′-Bipyridine

Several mixed-ligand complexes of formula [MX 2 (MBPY)] {where M is Pd(II) or Pt(II); X is Cl m , I m , N 3 m or NO 2 m and MBPY is 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine} have been prepared. The UV-Vis spectra of these complexes were found to show a low-lying MLCT band and on irradiation at the MLCT band these complexes sensitize the oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol (XH) in N , N -dimethylformamide (DMF) to 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinoloxy free radical (XO). This photo-oxidation reaction involves singlet molecular oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) as an intermediate and its presence was confirmed by quenching studies using bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) [Ni(DDTC) 2 ], a well-known 1 O 2 quencher. The ability of the complexes to photosensitize the above photo-oxidation reaction follows the order: [Pt ( N 3 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 2 ) ～ [Pt ( NO 2 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 3 ) > [PtCl 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 4 ) > [PtI 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 1 ) > [Pd ( NO 2 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 7 ) ～ [Pd ( N 3 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 6 ) > [PdCl 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 8 ) > [PdI 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 5 ), which reflects the nature of the metal ion and the nature of the ligands present in the complexes.

Preparation, spectral and thermal properties of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) complexes with iodosubstituted 2,2′-dipyrrolylmethene

Complexes [ML₂] of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) with asymmetrically substituted (E)-3-ethyl-5-[(4-iodo-3,5-dimethyl-2H-pyrrol-2-ylidene)methyl]-2,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrrole (HL) have been prepared and characterized for the first time. The spectral properties, stability in solutions and in the solid phase at elevated temperature of the complexes have been studied. The effects of complexing metal ion and the reaction medium on the spectral luminescent properties (absorptivity, quantum yield, fluorescence lifetime, and the radiation constant) and on thermal destruction of the [ML₂] complexes have been discussed.     

Thermal behaviors of N-pyrrolidine-N′-(2-chlorobenzoyl)thiourea and its Ni(II), Cu(II), and Co(III) complexes

The N-pyrrolidine-N??-(2-chlorobenzoyl)thiourea, HL, and their Ni(II), Cu(II), and Co(III) complexes (NiL₂, CuL₂, and CoL₃) have been synthesized and characterized. The thermal decomposition reactions of all the compounds have been investigated by DTA/TG combined systems. The mass spectroscopy technique has been used to identify the products during pyrolytic decomposition. The pyrolytic final products have been analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction method. After comparison of thermogravimetric and mass results of HL, NiL₂, CuL₂, and CoL₃, the decomposition mechanism of these compounds have been suggested. The thermal stability of the Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes according to the thermogravimetric curves follows the sequence: NiL₂?<?CuL₂. The values of the activation energy, E _a, have been obtained using model-free (Kissenger?CAkahira?CSunose, KAS, Flyn?CWall?COzawa, FWO, and Isoconversional) methods for all decomposition stages. The E _a versus the extent of conversion, ??, plots show that the values of E _a varies as ??. Thirteen kinetic model equations have been tested for selecting correct reaction models. The optimized value of E _a and Arrhenius factor, A, have been obtained using the best model equation. The thermodynamic functions (??H*, ??S*, and ??G*) have been calculated using these values.

PRECURSORS OF HEXA-AZAMACROCYCLES. SYNTHESIS AND X-RAY STRUCTURE OF 2,9-DIAMINOPHENANTHROLINEBISACETATE-Co(II) AND 6,6′-DIAMINOBIPYRIDINE-BISACETATE-M(II) (M = Ni,Cu)

Abstract

The synthesis, conventional characterisations and x-ray structures of the following monomeric complexes are given for 2,9-diaminophenanthroline-bisacetate-cobalt(II) ( A ) and 6,6′-diaminobipyridine-bisacetate-M(II) (M = nickel( C ) and copper( B )). Complex A crystalizes in the monoclinic, C2/c space group with a=12.813(6), b = 10.218(3), c= 13.811(5), Å; β= 118.17(2)°; Z=4; V=1549(2) ų. A total of 1787 unique reflections with F > 6σ(F) were refined to values of R and R_w 0.0461 and 0.0774, respectively. Complex B crystallizes in the triclinic, P-1 space group with a=10.099(5), b=10.257(5), c=8.015(11), Å; α=112.98(2), β=93.13(2), γ=92.960(2),°; Z=2; V = 761(1), ų. A total of 2603 unique reflections with F > 3.00σ(F) were refined to values of R and R_w 0.0764 and 0.1022, respectively. Complex C crystallizes in the monoclinic, P2₁/n space group with a=8.124(5), b=10.343(6), c=18.724(11), β=98.36(2),°; Z=4; V=1556(1), ų. A total of 2537 unique reflections with F > 3.00σ(F) were refined to values of R and R_w 0.0689 and 0.0975, respectively. The structures consist of six-coordinate [M(CH₃COO)₂(L)] (L=2,9-diaminophenanthroline or 6,6′-diaminobipyridine) discrete monomeric neutral species, although in the Cu(II) compound the elongation of two long Cu—O bonds, due to the Jahn-Teller effect, makes the metal essentially four-coordinate. In the Ni and Co compounds the acetate acts as a bidentate ligand. The diamino ligands are coordinated by the pyridine nitrogen atoms. The IR spectra of the complexes have been recorded and are discussed in relation to the crystal structure and the acetate coordination mode.     

Catalytic Ni(II) in reactions of SmI2: Sm(II)- or Ni(0)-based chemistry?

The addition of catalytic amounts of Ni(II) salts provide enhanced reactivity and selectivity in numerous reactions of SmI(2), but the mechanistic basis for their effect is unknown. We report spectroscopic and kinetic studies on the mechanistic role of catalytic Ni(II) in the samarium Barbier reaction. The mechanistic studies presented herein show that the samarium Barbier reaction containing catalytic amounts of Ni(II) salts is driven solely by the reduction of Ni(II) to Ni(0) in a rate-limiting step. Once formed, Ni(0) inserts into the alkyl halide bond through oxidative addition to produce an organonickel species. During the reaction, the formation of colloidal Ni(0) occurs concomitantly with Ni(0) oxidative addition as an unproductive process. Overall, this study shows that a reaction thought to be driven by the unique features of SmI(2) is in fact a result of known Ni(0) chemistry.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of copper(II)-MII-copper(II) trinuclear complexes with N,N′-bis(2-aminoethyl)oxamidocopper(II) [M = Co and Ni]

Summary Two novel trinuclear complexes were prepared, namely [Cu₂(oxae)₂(H₂O)₂M] (ClO₄)₂, [oxae = N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl) oxamido dianion; M = Co and Ni]. Based on elemental analyses, conductivity measurements and i.r. spectra, the complexes are proposed to have extended oxamidobridged structures. The magnetic susceptibility of [Cu₂-(oxae) ₂(H₂O)₂Co](ClO₄)₂ were measured over the 4–300 K range and the observed data were successfully simulated by an equation based on the spin Hamiltonian, =–2J(₁·₂·₂·₃). The exchange integral, J, was found to be equal to –29.2 cm^–1, indicating an antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction between the adjacent metal ions.     

Electrophilic Substitution Ni(II)→M(II) in Ni2[Fe(CN)6] Gelatin-immobilized Matrix Materials

The electrophilic substitution reactions Ni(II)M(II) (M = Co, Cu, Zn, Cd) occurring in nickel(II) hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix materials on their contact with aqueous solutions of corresponding chlorides MCl2 were studied. During contact, Ni(II) is partly substituted by the other metal to form heteronuclear hexacyanoferrates(II) of nickel(II) and corresponding double-charged ions, and none of the studied reactions involves complete substitution of Ni(II) until the mononuclear hexacyanoferrate(II) M₂[Fe(CN)₆] has formed.
