Metal-organics [((RO)(3)P)(m)CuO(2)CCF(3)] (R = CH(3): 11a, m = 1; 11b, m = 2; 11c, m = 3. R = CH(2)CH(3): 12a, m = 1; 12b, m = 2; 12c, m = 3. R = CH(2)CF(3): 13a, m = 1; 13b, m = 2; 13c, m = 3) are either accessible by the reaction of [((RO)(3)P)(m)CuCl] (R = CH(3): 5a, m = 1; 5b, m = 2; 5c, m = 3. R = CH(2)CH(3): 6a, m = 1; 6b, m = 2; 6c, m = 3) with [KO(2)CCF(3)] (7), or treatment of [Cu(2)O] (8) with HO(2)CCF(3) (9) and P(OR)(3) (2, R = CH(3); 3, R = CH(2)CH(3); 4, R = CH(2)CF(3)). (31)P{(1)H} NMR spectra [((CH(3)O)(3)P)(m)CuO(2)CCF(3)] (m = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, and 4) have been studied at 25 and -80 °C showing phosphite ligand exchange in solution. The molecular structures of 11a and 13a-13c in the solid state are reported. Complexes 11a and 13a are tetramers featuring μ-η(2)(1κO:2κO')- and μ(3)-η(2)(1κO:2κO':3κO')-(11a) or μ(3)-η(2)(1κO:2κO':3κO')-bonded O(2)CCF(3) ligands (13a) with the Cu(I) ions being part of CuPO(2) and CuPO(3) units (11a), while in 13a solely a CuPO(3) moiety is present. Skeletal isomerism of 11a vs. 13a is discussed. Compound 13b is dimeric ({CuP(2)O(2)}(2)) with pseudo-tetrahedral Cu environments and μ-η(2)(1κO:2κO')O(2)CCF(3) functionalities. In monomeric 13c the O(2)CCF(3) ligand is η(1)(κO)-bonded to a tetra-coordinated Cu(i) ion. The thermal solid state properties of 11, 12 and 13 were studied by Thermo Gravimetry (TG). These complexes decompose by phosphite elimination, decarboxylation and dealkylation. Hot-wall Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) experiments were carried out at 380 °C using 11c as precursor for the deposition of copper onto pieces of TiN-coated oxidized silicon substrates. Copper layers of high purity were obtained with grain sizes between 200-1200 nm.     

Syntheses,Structures and Band Gaps of KLnSiS4 （Ln = Sm,Yb）

Two new quaternary sulfides, KSmSiS4 （1） and KYbSiS4 （2）, have been synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reaction. Single,crystal X-ray diffraction analyses indicate that both compounds crystallize in the space group P21/m, and the crystal data are as follows： a = 6.426（11）, b = 6.582（11）, c = 8.602（15）A, β= 107.90（13）°, Z = 2, V= 346.2（10） A^3, Dc = 3.317 g/cm^3, F（000） = 318,μ（MoKα） = 10.334 mm^-1, the final R = 0.0559 and wR = 0.1370 for 1; and α= 6.3244（10）, b = 6.5552（10）, c = 8.5701（15）A, β= 108.001（13）°, Z = 2, V = 337.91（9） A^3, De= 3.621 g/cm^3, F（000） = 334, μ（MoKα） = 15.737 mm^-1, the final R = 0.0422 and wR = 0.0960 for 2. The KLnSiS4 （Ln = Sm, Yb） structure consists of corrugated ∞^2 [LnSiS4]^- layers which are formed by edge-sharing LnS8 bicapped trigonal prisms and SiS4 tetrahedra. The K^＋ cations are located in the cavities defined by S2 anions between the ∞^2[LnSiS4]^- layers. Band-gap analyses show that compounds 1 and 2 are semiconductors with optical band-gaps of 2.40 and 2.34 eV, respectively.     

Synthesis, characterization, and materials chemistry of Group 4 silylimides

This paper focuses on the development of potential single source precursors for M-N-Si (M = Ti, Zr or Hf) thin films. The titanium, zirconium, and hafnium silylimides (Me(2)N)(2)MNSiR(1)R(2)R(3) [R(1) = R(2) = R(3) = Ph, M = Ti(1), Zr (2), Hf (3); R(1) = R(2) = R(3) = Et, M = Ti (4), Zr (5), Hf (6); R(1) = R(2) = Me, R(3) = (t)Bu, M = Ti (7), Zr (8), Hf (9); R(1) = R(2) = R(3) = NMe(2), M = Ti (10), Zr (11), Hf (12)] have been synthesized by the reaction of M(NMe(2))(4) and R(3)R(2)R(1)SiNH(2). All compounds are notably sensitive to air and moisture. Compounds 1, 2, 4, and 7-10 have been structurally characterized, and all are dimeric, with the general formula [M(NMe(2))(2)(μ-NSiR(3))](2), in which the μ(2)-NSiR(3) groups bridges two four-coordinate metal centers. The hafnium compound 3 possesses the same basic dimeric structure but shows additional incorporation of liberated HNMe(2) bonded to one metal. Compounds 11 and 12 are also both dimeric but also incorporate additional μ(2)-NMe(2) groups, which bridge Si and either Zr or Hf metal centers in the solid state. The Zr and Hf metal centers are both five-coordinated in these species. Aerosol-assisted CVD (AA-CVD) using 4-7 and 9-12 as precursors generates amorphous films containing M, N, Si, C, and O; the films are dominated by MO(2) with smaller contributions from MN, MC and MSiON based on XPS binding energies.

Two complexes 1 and 2 are both found to be one-dimensional coordination polymers bridged by the protonated bpma ligands, which are assembled into three-dimensional supramolecular structures through the hydrogen bonding interactions and π-π packing interactions.

Low melting N-4-functionalized-1-alkyl or polyfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-triazolium salts

Butane sulfobetaines 2a,b, zwitterionic oxo perfluorocarboxylates 3a,b, and functionalized triazolium bromides 4b,c and 5a-c have been synthesized and subsequently reacted to give a series of hydrophilic and hydrophobic fluorinated and nonfluorinated N-1-alkyl-N-4-functionalized-triazolium compounds (6a-11b). With the exception of 11b (mp 41 degrees C), all are liquids at room temperature. Metathesis of the fluorinated quaternary triazolium halides with other anions led to the formation of a new class of compounds, namely, [(R)(R(funct))-Taz](+)Y(-), Y = PF(6), (CF(3)SO(2))( 2)N, and CF(3)SO(3), in good isolated yields. All of the new compounds were characterized by (1)H, (19)F, and (13)C NMR, and MS spectral and elemental analyses. Thermal analyses indicate that high temperatures are attainable prior to decomposition. DSC studies show glass transitions for several samples, and all functionalized compounds, 5-11, have T(g)s or T(m)s <100 degrees C. Densities range between 1.4 and 1.61 g cm(-)(3). 1-Heptyl-4-(butyl-4-sulfonic acid) triazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate, 6b, in its role as a Br?nsted acid, is an effective solvent/catalyst for high yield esterification and hetero-Michael addition reactions and may be recycled for repetitive use.     

Synthesis,structures, and magnetic properties of a series of lanthanum(III) and gadolinium(III) complexes with chelating benzimidazole-substituted nitronyl nitroxide free radicals. Evidence for antiferromagnetic Gd(III)-radical interactions

This paper reports the synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic properties of a series of lanthanide complexes with nitronyl nitroxide radicals of general formula [[Ln(III)(radical)(4)] x (ClO(4))(3) x (H(2)O)(x) x (THF)(y)] (1-4) and [Ln(III)(radical)(2)(NO(3))(3)] (5, 6) [Ln = La (compounds 1, 3, 5) or Gd (compounds 2, 4, and 6); radical = 2-(2'-benzymidazolyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide (NITBzImH, compounds 1, 2, 5, 6) or 2-[2'-[(6'-methyl)benzymidazolyl]]-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide (NITMeBzImH, compounds 3, 4)].

(3) C(68)H(94)Cl(3)LaN(16)O(23), fw = 1742.80, tetragonal, P 4 macro 2(1)m, a = 21.125(3) A, b = 21.125(3) A, c = 10.938(2) A, V = 4881.5(14) A(3), R = 0.1017, R(w) = 0.3126. (5) C(28)H(34)LaN(11)O(13), fw = 871.57, orthorhombic, Pna2(1), a = 19.5002(12) A, b = 13.0582(8) A, c = 14.5741(9) A, V = 3711.1(4) A(3), R = 0.0331, R(w) = 0.1146.

Compounds 1-4 consist of [M(III)(radical)(4)](3+) cations, uncoordinated perchlorate anions, THF, and water crystallization molecules. In these complexes, the coordination number around the lanthanide ion is eight, and the polyhedron is either a distorted dodecahedron (1) or a distorted cube (2, 3). The crystal structures of 5 and 6 consist of independent [M(III)(radical)(2)(NO(3))(3)] entities in which the lanthanide is ten-coordinated and has a distorted bicapped square antiprism coordination polyhedron. For the lanthanum(III) complexes, the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility indicates that radical-radical magnetic interactions are negligible either for compounds 1 and 3, while for compound 5 it is simulated considering dimers of weakly antiferromagnetically coupled radicals (J(rad-rad) = -1.1 cm(-1)). In the case of the gadolinium(III) compounds (2, 4, 6), each magnetic behavior gives unambiguous evidence of antiferromagnetic Gd(III)-radical interaction (2, J(Gd-rad) = -1.8 cm(-1); 4, J(Gd-rad) = -3.8 cm(-1); 6, J(Gd-rad1) = -4.05 cm(-1) and J(Gd-rad2) = -0.80 cm(-1)), in contrast to the ferromagnetic case generally observed. The nature of the Gd(III)-radical interaction is explained in relation to the donor strength of the free radical ligand.     

Synthesis,cytotoxic, and carbonic anhydrase inhibitory effects of new 2-(3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-(aryl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)benzo[d]thiazole derivatives

2-(3-[4-Methoxyphenyl]-5-aryl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)benzo[d]thiazoles ( 1b-7b ) were synthesized for the first time except 1b , and spectral methods such as ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and HRMS were utilized to illuminate the chemical structures of the synthesized compounds. Phenyl ( 1b ), 2-methoxyphenyl ( 2b ), 4-methoxyphenyl ( 3b ), 4-methoxy-3-hydroxyphenyl ( 4b ), 2,5-dimethoxyphenyl ( 5b ), 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ( 6b ), or thiophene-2-yl ( 7b ) was used as a aryl part. The inhibitory effects of the compounds were evaluated toward human carbonic anhydrase I and II enzymes (hCA I and hCA II). In vitro cytotoxic effects of the compounds against human oral squamous carcinomas and human normal oral cells were carried out via MTT. The compounds ( 1b-7b ) had Ki values of 36.87 ± 11.62-66.24 ± 2.99 μM (hCA I) and 22.66 ± 1.41-89.95 ± 6.25 μM (hCA II). Compounds 1b (Ki = 36.87 ± 11.62 μM) toward hCA I, 6b (Ki = 22.66 ± 1.41 μM) toward hCA II had significant enzyme inhibitory potency. Compound 6b had the highest tumor selectivity (TS = 29.3) and potency selectivity expression (PSE = 272.3) values. Therefore, compounds 1b and 6b with CAs inhibition effect and compound 6b with the cytotoxicity may be forwarded to further studies as potent compounds.     

Control of molecular architecture by steric factors: mononuclear vs polynuclear manganese(III) compounds with tetradentate N2O2 donor Schiff bases

Three manganese(III) compounds, [Mn(III)(vanoph)(DMF)(H(2)O)]ClO(4) (1), [Mn(III)(vanoph)(N(3))(H(2)O)]·2H(2)O (2) and [Mn(III)(saloph)(μ(1,3)-N(3))](n) (3), where H(2)vanoph = N,N'-(1,2-phenylene)-bis(3-methoxysalicylideneimine), H(2)saloph = N,N'-(1,2-phenylene)-bis(salicylideneamine) are tetradentate N(2)O(2) ligands and DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide, have been prepared and characterised by elemental analysis, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Compounds 1 and 2 are monomeric but compound 3 consists of a chain system with the repeating unit [Mn(III)(saloph)(N(3))] bridged by μ-1,3 azide. Compound 1 crystallises in monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with cell dimensions of a = 11.1430(2), b = 16.3594(3), c = 15.4001(3) ?, β = 108.417(1), Z = 4 whereas compounds 2 and 3 crystallise in orthorhombic space groups Pbca and Pna2(1), respectively, with cell dimensions of a = 16.069(3), b = 15.616(3), c = 18.099(4) ?, Z = 8 (for 2) and a = 18.760(9), b = 13.356(5), c = 6.616(3) ?, Z = 4 (for 3). In all the compounds, Mn(III) has a six-coordinated pseudo-octahedral geometry in which O(2), O(3), N(1) and N(2) atoms of the deprotonated di-Schiff base constitute the equatorial plane. In both compounds 1 and 2, water molecules are present in the fifth coordination sites in the apical positions. The sixth coordination sites are occupied by one O atom of a solvent DMF in compound 1 and an N atom of azide in compound 2. The coordinated water initiates hydrogen-bonded networks in both compounds 1 and 2 to form well-isolated supramolecular dimers. At room temperature the χ(M)T values for the compounds 1 and 2 remain almost constant until 30 K. Below this temperature, the χ(M)T values drastically drop to 0.72 cm(3) mol(-1) K for 1 and 0.52 cm(3) mol(-1) K for 2. The best fits were obtained with J = -0.92 cm(-1), |D| = 2.05 cm(-1), g = 2.0 and R = 8.1 × 10(-4) for 1 and J = -1.16 cm(-1), |D| = 2.05 cm(-1), g = 2.0 and R = 1.2 × 10(-3) for 2. However, in compound 3, two axial positions are occupied by the azide ions. The Mn···Mn repeating distance is 6.616 ? along the chain. Magnetic characterisation shows that the μ(1,3)-bridging azide ion mainly transmits an antiferromagnetic interaction (J = -6.36 cm(-1)) between Mn(III) ions. The presence of two methoxy groups increases the steric crowding in the H(2)vanoph moiety and thereby inhibits the formation of a polynuclear compound with this ligand.

A novel series of 2-(3-fluoro-4-nitrophenoxy)-N-phenylacetamide compounds were designed, synthesized and in vitro assessed for their antitubercular activities by a microdilution method. All the novel derivatives exerted potent or moderate active against M. tuberculosis H??Rv, with MIC values ranging from 4 to 64 μg/mL. The most potent derivative 3m showed an identical MIC value of 4 μg/mL for both M. tuberculosis H??Rv and rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis 261. It demonstrated no inhibitory effects against six different tumor cell lines by a MTT assay and had a good safety profile in a vero cell line, providing a good lead for subsequent optimization in search of novel affordable antitubercular agents.

Cationic diiron and diruthenium μ-allenyl complexes: synthesis, X-ray structures and cyclization reactions with ethyldiazoacetate/amine affording unprecedented butenolide- and furaniminium-substituted bridging carbene ligands

The novel cationic diiron μ-allenyl complexes [Fe(2)Cp(2)(CO)(2)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(2)(α,β)-C(α)(H)=C(β)=C(γ)(R)(2)}](+) (R = Me, 4a; R = Ph, 4b) have been obtained in good yields by a two-step reaction starting from [Fe(2)Cp(2)(CO)(4)]. The solid state structures of [4a][CF(3)SO(3)] and of the diruthenium analogues [Ru(2)Cp(2)(CO)(2)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(2)(α,β)-C(α)(H)=C(β)=C(γ)(R)(2)}][BPh(4)] (R = Me, [2a][BPh(4)]; R = Ph, [2c][BPh(4)]) have been ascertained by X-ray diffraction studies. The reactions of 2c and 4a with Br?nsted bases result in formation of the μ-allenylidene compound [Ru(2)Cp(2)(CO)(2)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(1)-C(α)=C(β)=C(γ)(Ph)(2)}] (5) and of the dimetallacyclopentenone [Fe(2)Cp(2)(CO)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(3)-C(α)(H)=C(β)(C(γ)(Me)CH(2))C(=O)}] (6), respectively. The nitrile adducts [Ru(2)Cp(2)(CO)(NCMe)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(2)-C(α)(H)=C(β)=C(γ)(R)(2)}](+) (R = Me, 7a; R = Ph, 7b), prepared by treatment of 2a,c with MeCN/Me(3)NO, react with N(2)CHCO(2)Et/NEt(3) at room temperature, affording the butenolide-substituted carbene complexes [Ru(2)Cp(2)(CO)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(3)-C(α)(H)[upper bond 1 start]C(β)C(γ)(R)(2)OC(=O)C[upper bond 1 end](H)] (R = Me, 10a; R = Ph, 10b). The intermediate cationic compound [Ru(2)Cp(2)(CO)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(3)-C(α)(H)[upper bond 1 start]C(β)C(γ)(Me)(2)OC(OEt)C[upper bond 1 end](H)](+) (9) has been detected in the course of the reaction leading to 10a. The addition of N(2)CHCO(2)Et/NHEt(2) to 7a gives the 2-furaniminium-carbene [Ru(2)Cp(2)(CO)(μ-CO){μ-η(1):η(3)-C(α)(H)[upper bond 1 start]C(β)C(γ)(Me)(2)OC(OEt)C[upper bond 1 end](H)](+) (11). The X-ray structures of 10a, 10b and [11][BF(4)] have been determined. The reactions of 4a,b with MeCN/Me(3)NO result in prevalent decomposition to mononuclear iron species.     

Direct synthesis of NNN-donor enantiopure scorpionate ligands by an efficient diastereoselective nucleophilic addition to imines

New enantiopure imines (1-9) with a chiral substrate to control the stereochemistry of a newly created stereogenic center have been synthesized by reaction of the commercially available (1R)-(-)-myrtenal and different primary amines. The diastereomerically enriched lithium-scorpionate compounds [Li(κ(3)-mobpza)(THF)] (10) (mobpza = N-p-methylphenyl-(1R and 1S)-1-[(1R)-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]-2-hepten-2-yl]-2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethylamide), [Li(κ(3)-mobpza)(THF)] (11) (mobpza = N-p-methoxyphenyl-(1R and 1S)-1-[(1R)-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]-2-hepten-2-yl]-2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethylamide), [Li(κ(3)-fbpza)(THF)] (12) (fbpza = N-p-fluorophenyl-(1R and 1S)-1-[(1R)-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]-2-hepten-2-yl]-2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethylamide), and [Li(κ(3)-clbpza)(THF)] (13) (clbpza = N-p-chlorophenyl-(1R and 1S)-1-[(1R)-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]-2-hepten-2-yl]-2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethylamide) were obtained by a diastereoselective 1,2-addition of an organolithium reagent to imines in good yield and with good diastereomeric excess (ca. 80%). The complexes [LiCl(κ(2)-R,R-fbpzaH)(THF)] (14) and [LiCl(κ(2)-R,R-clbpzaH)(THF)] (15) were obtained in enantiomerically pure form by the treatment of THF solutions of 12 or 13 with NH(4)Cl. The enantiomerically pure amines (R,R-mbpzaH) (16), (R,R-mobpzaH) (17), (R,R-fbpzaH) (18), and (R,R-clbpzaH) (19) were obtained by hydrolysis of the lithium-scorpionate compounds 10-13 with H(2)O. The lithium compound 12 was reacted with [TiCl(4)(THF)(2)] or [ZrCl(4)] to give the enantiopure complexes [MCl(3)(κ(3)-R,R-fbpza)] [M = Ti (20), Zr (21)]. The amine compound 18 reacted with [MX(4)] (M = Ti, X = O(i)Pr, OEt; M = Zr; X = NMe(2)) to give the complexes [MX(3)(κ(3)-R,R-fbpza)] (22-24). The reaction of Me(3)SiCl with [Zr(NMe(2))(3)(κ(3)-R,R-fbpza)] (24) in different molar ratios led to the halide-amide-containing complexes [ZrCl(NMe(2))(2)(κ(3)-R,R-fbpza)] (25) and [ZrCl(2)(NMe(2))(κ(3)-R,R-fbpza)] (26) and the halide complex 21. The isolation of only one of the three possible diastereoisomers of complexes 25 and 26 revealed that chiral induction from the ligand to the zirconium center took place. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by (1)H and (13)C{(1)H} NMR spectroscopy, and the X-ray crystal structures of 5, 12, 14, 15, and 24 were also established.     

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Zinc(II) and Nickel(II) Complexes Involving Reduced Nitroxide Radicals

1 INTRODUCTION The synthesis of new molecular magnetic mate- rials that combine transition metal ions and pure organic radicals as ligating sites has attracted much more attention in the last few years[1~4]. Nitronyl ni- troxide radicals, independently or in combination with metal ions, have been one of the most studied systems in molecular magnetism for understanding the radical-radical or metal-radical interactions as well as for synthesizing organic ferromagnets and metal-radical magne…     

Noncentrosymmetric inorganic open-framework chalcohalides with strong middle IR SHG and red emission: Ba3AGa5Se10Cl2 (A = Cs, Rb, K)

Novel SHG effective inorganic open-framework chalcohalides, Ba(3)AGa(5)Se(10)Cl(2) (A = Cs, Rb and K), have been synthesized by high temperature solid state reactions. These compounds crystallize in the tetragonal space group I ?4 (No.82) with a = b = 8.7348(6) - 8.6341(7) ?, c = 15.697(3) - 15.644(2) ?, V = 1197.6(3) - 1166.2(2) ?(3) on going from Cs to K. The polar framework of (3)(∞)[Ga(5)Se(10)](5-) is constructed by nonpolar GaSe(4)(5- )tetrahedron (T1) and polar supertetrahedral cluster Ga(4)Se(10)(8-) (T2) in a zinc-blende topological structure with Ba/A cations and Cl anions residing in the tunnels. Remarkably, Ba(3)CsGa(5)Se(10)Cl(2) exhibits the strongest intensity at 2.05 μm (about 100 times that of the benchmark AgGaS(2) in the particle size of 30-46 μm) among chalcogenides, halides, and chalcohalides. Furthermore, these compounds are also the first open-framework compounds with red photoluminescent emissions. The Vienna ab initio theoretical studies analyze electronic structures and linear and nonlinear optical properties.
