Photosynthesis and Molecular Structure of2—Amino—3H—phenoxazin—3—one

1 INTRODUCTION 2-Amino-3H-phenoxazin-3-one (APX) is related to the naturally occurring antineoplastic actinomycin D and has been used as a chemical model of actinomycin D[1]. Usually APX is synthesized from 2-aminophenol with the phenoxazinone synthase in human body[2]. A variety of artificial synthesis methods of APX via the oxidation of 2-aminophenol have also been reported, but each method needs some artificial condition such as chemical catalysis[3～7], natural enzyme[8], UV…

Copper(II) Complexes with N‐(9‐anthracenyl)‐N′‐(3‐pyridyl)urea (L) and a Derivative of L: Synthesis,Structure, and Fluorescent Properties

Three copper(II) complexes, [Cu₂(OAc)₄L₂] · 2CH₃OH ( 1 ), [CuBr₂L′₂(CH₃OH)] · CH₃OH ( 2a ), and [CuBr₂L′₂(DMSO)] · 0.5CH₃OH ( 2b ) {L = N‐(9‐anthracenyl)‐N′‐(3‐pyridyl)urea and L′ = N‐[10‐(10‐methoxy‐anthronyl)]‐N′‐(3‐pyridyl)urea} have been synthesized by the reaction of L with the corresponding copper(II) salts. Complex 1 shows a dinuclear structure with a conventional “paddlewheel” motif, in which four acetate units bridge the two Cu^II ions. In complexes 2a and 2b , the anthracenyl ligand L has been converted to an anthronyl derivative L′, and the central metal ion exhibits a distorted square pyramidal arrangement, with two pyridyl nitrogen atoms and two bromide ions defining the basal plane and the apical position is occupied by a solvent molecule (CH₃OH in 2a and DMSO in 2b ).

Three copper(II) coordination polymers (CuCPs), namely, [Cu_0.5(1,4‐bib)(SO₄)_0.5]_n ( 1 ), {[Cu(1,3‐bib)₂(H₂O)] · SO₄ · H₂O}_n ( 2 ), and [Cu(bpz)(SO₄)_0.5]_n ( 3 ), were assembled from the reaction of three N‐donors [1,4‐bib = 1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐4‐yl)benzene, 1,3‐bib = 1,3‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐4‐yl)benzene, and Hbpz = 3‐(2‐pyridyl)pyrazole] with copper sulfate under hydrothermal conditions.

Moreover, the photocatalytic tests demonstrate that the obtained CuCPs are photocatalysts in the degradation of MB with the efficiency is 86.4 % for 1 , 75.3 % for 2 , and 91.3 % for 3 after 2 h, respectively.

Anion‐directed Silver(I) Coordination Assemblies Based on 1‐(2‐Pyridyl)‐2‐(4‐pyridyl)‐1,2,4‐triazolewith Diverse Supramolecular Networks and Dichromate Removal Capabilities

A series of silver(I) supramolecular complexes, namely, {[Ag(L²⁴)](NO₃)}_n ( 1 ), [Ag₂(L²⁴)(NO₂)₂]_n ( 2 ), and {[Ag_1.25(L²⁴)(DMF)](PF₆)_1.25}_n ( 3 ) were prepared by the reactions of 1‐(2‐pyridyl)‐2‐(4‐pyridyl)‐1,2,4‐triazole (L²⁴) and silver(I) salts with different anions (AgNO₃, AgNO₂, AgPF₆). Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction indicates that 1 – 3 display diverse supramolecular networks. The structure of dinuclear complex 1 is composed of a six‐membered Ag₂N₄ ring with the Ag ··· Ag distance of 4.4137(3) Å. In complex 2 , the adjacent Ag^I centers are interlinked by L²⁴ ligands into a 1D chain, the adjacent of which are further extended by the bridged nitrites to construct a 2D coordination architecture. Complex 3 shows a 3D (3,4)‐connected framework, which is generated by the linkage of L²⁴ ligands. All complexes were characterized by IR spectra, elemental analysis, and powder X‐ray diffraction. Notably, a structural comparison of the complexes demonstrates that their structures are predominated by the nature of anions. Additionally, 1 and 2 show efficient dichromate (Cr₂O₇^2–) capture in water system, which can be ascribed to the anion‐exchange.     

Synthesis,Structure and Magnetic Properties of Two Cobalt(II) Dicyanamide (dca) Complexes with Heterocyclic Nitrogen Donors Tetra(2‐pyridyl)pyrazine (tppz) and 2,4,6‐Tri(2‐pyridyl)‐1,3,5‐triazine (tptz): [Co2(tppz)(dca)4]·CH3CN and [Co(tptz)(dca)(H2O)](dca)

Two new transition metal dicyanamide complexes [Co₂(tppz)(dca)₄]·CH₃CN ( 1 ) [tppz=tetra(2‐pyridyl)pyrazine, dca=dicyanamide] and [Co(tptz)(dca)(H₂O)](dca) ( 2 ) [tptz=2,4,6‐tri(2‐pyridyl)‐1,3,5‐triazine] were synthesized and characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. In 1 each cobalt(II) atom is coordinated to three dca anions and one tppz molecule to form a distorted octahedral geometry, the neigbour two cobalt(II) atoms are bridged by one tppz ligand to form a dimer, then the cobalt(II) atoms in each dimer are joined together to form a ladder chain structure. In 2 the coordination geometry around the central metal is also distorted octahedral, each cobalt(II) atom is coordinated by two dca anions, one tptz molecule and one water ligand to form a cationic part, and the cationic part is linked with the free dca anions via the electrostatic attraction to give an infinite chain structure. Magnetic susceptibility measurement in the range of 2–300 K indicates that there are antiferromagnetic couplings between adjacent metal ions in 1 (T>29 K, (=?9.78 K, C=4.92 cm³·K·mol^?1) and ferromagnetic couplings in 2 (T>150 K, (=7.97 K, C=2.59 cm³·K·mol^?1) respectively.

The L ligands in complex 1 act as κ1, κ1‐bidentate bridging ligand, whereas the L ligands in complex 2 act as κ1‐monodentae and κ1, κ1‐bidentate bridging ligand. The molecules of these complexes are interlinked through various weak interactions that form the packed structure. All the complexes exhibit emissions which may be tentatively assigned as intraligand (IL) π→π* transitions.
