Theoretical investigation into coordination and selectivity of uranyl-unilateral benzotriazole salophens (X = O/S) for R/S-triadimefons

The design of new uranyl-ligands (uranyl-Ls) is of great significance for the separation and utilization of uranium. In this paper, the triazole group was introduced into uranyl-salophen (uranyl-S) to form new asymmetric uranyl-unilateral benzotriazole salophen (uranyl-UBS); we further replaced two oxygen atoms of uranyl-UBS with two sulfur atoms to generate uranyl-unilateral benzotriazole thio-salophen (uranyl-UBTS) as a new receptor. Then, we comprehensively explored coordination models of uranyl-UBS and uranyl-UBTS with R/S-triadimefons (R/S-TDFs) enantiomers as the guests using density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP//RECP/6-311G** level; we then investigated enantioselectivity recognition of the new receptors to the guests R/S-TDFs. The results indicated that the uranium atoms of the receptors uranyl-S, uranyl-UBS and uranyl-UBTS could coordinate with the carbonyl oxygens in guests R/S-TDFs to form complexes of guest-receptors R/S-TDFs-uranyl-Ls that exhibited two stable V-shaped structures with quite different properties. It was found that the coordination ability to the guests R/S-TDFs is uranyl-UBTS > uranyl-UBS > uranyl-S, while the enantioselectivity for the guests is uranyl-UBTS > uranyl-S > uranyl-UBS and, when the receptor is the same, R-TDF has stronger coordination ability than S-TDF. These results provide information and theoretical supports for the experiments of asymmetric uranyl-UBS with R/S-TDFs, and produce a reference for further exploring the coordination characteristics of asymmetric uranyl-salophen with the triazole derivatives.     

Benzotriazole derivatives as long wavelength photosensitizers for diaryliodonium salt initiators

Two benzotriazole derivative dyes 4,7‐bis(2,3‐dihydrothieno[3,4‐b][1,4]dioxin‐5‐yl)‐2‐dodecyl‐2H‐benzo[1,2,3]triazole, and 2‐dodecyl‐4,7‐bis(4‐hexylthiophen‐2‐yl)‐2H‐benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole are shown to work as efficient photosensitizers for a diphenyliodonium salt initiator in cationic photopolymerization of epoxide and vinyl monomers. Substituted thienyl groups are attached to benzotriazole backbone to extend conjugation and enhance electron density of the molecules. Thereby, it was possible to initiate polymerizations at room temperature using long wavelength UV and visible light. The progress of photopolymerizations was monitored using optical pyrometry. The photopolymerization of an epoxide monomer using solar irradiation was also demonstrated. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011     

Shell‐isolated nanoparticle enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS) investigation of benzotriazole film formation on Cu(100), Cu(111), and Cu(poly)

Benzotriazole (BTAH) is well known as an effective corrosion inhibitor for Cu because of its ability to make a coordination polymer film on the surface that provides a barrier to Cu oxidation. BTA⁻ film formation was investigated on single‐crystal and polycrystalline Cu surfaces with shell‐isolated nanoparticle enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS) using silica‐encapsulated Au nanoparticles. Potential‐dependent spectra display reversible film formation on polycrystalline Cu and irreversible film formation on single‐crystal Cu. Grain boundaries leading to smaller BTA⁻‐Cu oligomers are proposed to be the reason for cathodic degradation of the BTA⁻ polymeric films on polycrystalline Cu.

Ferrocenylalkyl azoles: bioactivity,synthesis, structure

The toxicity of ferrocenylethyl benzotriazole ( 1 ) and other ferrocene compounds including ferrocenylmethyl benzimidazoles ( 4,5,6,11 ), ferricenium salts ( 3,9,10 ) and ferrocenylmethyl adenine ( 7 ), was studied. All ferrocene complexes under investigation showed low or medium toxicities. On the basis of an earlier model of chemical carcinogenesis, the antitumor activity of ferrocenylalkyl azoles 1, 8 and ferricenium salts 9, 10 was studied in vivo in the so‐called sub‐capsular test on human tumors. This effectiveness was compared with that of cisplatin. A series of ferrocenylalkyl azoles were synthesized by interacting azoles either with α‐hydroxyalkyl ferrocenes FcC(OH)R₁R₂ in organic solvent in the presence of aqueous HBF₄ in quantitative yields or with trimethyl(aminomethyl)ferrocene iodide in an aqueous‐basic medium in good yields. The X‐ray determinations of molecular and crystal structures of α‐(1‐benzotriazolyl)ethylferrocene ( 1 ) and α‐(1‐naphthatriazolyl)ethylferrocene ( 12 ) were performed.

The synthesis,crystal structures and SOD activities of a new ligand (Lse) and Co(Lse)2(SCN)2 complex [Lse = selenium ether bis‐(N‐1‐methyl‐ benzotriazole)]

A new ligand containing selenium, Se (CH₂‐N‐Btrzole)₂ (L^se) (Btrzole = benzotriazole) and its cobalt(II) complex, Co(L^se)₂(SCN)₂, have been synthesized and the molecular structures of the title compounds have been determined by X‐ray techniques. The L^se is a meso‐configuration with a symmetric plane through the Se center, the intermolecular weak interactions of Se? Se, Se? N and π? π stacking between benzotriazole rings to extend the molecular structure to two‐dimensional network configuration. In the Co(II) complex, the metal center is in a six‐coordinated octahedral environment. Two Co(II) atoms are linked by two ligands to form a 20‐membered macrocycle; the adjacent macrocycles are linked by coordinated bond of Co? N_bentrozole to extend an infinite double strained chain. The SOD activity of the ligand and Co(II) complex have been studied by using the pyrogallol autoxidation method; thermal properties and luminescent properties of Co(II) complex have been tested, and the details of those properties have been discussed.

Preparation ,Structural Characterization and Luminescent Property of Binucleasr Silver（Ⅰ）Complex Formed by Benzotriazole and 1—Hydroxymethyl Benzotriazole

Dinuclear silver (I) six‐membered ring complex [Ag₂ (bta)₂ ‐(hmbta)₂] (ClO₄)₂ (3) has been synthesized by the reaction of benzotriazole (bta) (1) and 1‐hydroxymethyl benzotriazole (hmbta) (2) with Ag (CH₃CN)₄ClO₄. The structures of compound 2 and Complex 3 have been studied by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The change of luminescent intensity of 1, 2 and 3 was reported. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P2 (1)/c, a = 0.7655 (10) nm, b = 1.0126 (14) nm, c =0.9502 (13) nm, β = 95.07 (2)°, V = 0.7337 (17) nm³ and Z = 4. Complex 3 crystallizes in the triclinic system with space group P1, a = 0.73611 (18) nm, b = 0.9152 (2) nm, c = 1.2277 (3) nm, β = 87.170 (5)°, V = 0.8221 (3) nm³ and Z = 1. The main structural feature of complex 3 is a symmetric dinuclear six‐membered ring formed by two silver (I) atoms and four N‐atoms from two benzotriazoles. The second structural feature of complex 3 is the τ‐τ stacking interaction between two adjacent molecular planes, which forms the two‐dimentional layer structure. Besides, compared with 2, the luminescent intensity of complex 3 shows a remarkable enhancement.

UV stabilizers bonded to transition metals: Synthesis and X-ray structure of 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)benzotriazole-oxovanadium(IV) and -dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes

The UV-stabilizer 2-(2′-hydroxy-5′-methylphenyl)benzotriazole (Tinuvin P, LH) has been used as a monoanionic bidentate ligand for complexing oxocations. Displacement of acacH from [VO(acac)₂] and [MoO₂(acac)₂] gave [*VO(acac)₂*(μ-L)] (2) and [cis-O₂Mo(acac)L] (3) respectively, as crystalline compounds. Their structure has been determined by an X-ray analysis showing the structural changes occurring upon coordination. The UV spectrum of Tinuvin P is significantly affected by complexation.
