Supramolecular architectures and crystal structures of gold(III) compounds with semicarbazones

The synthesis and crystal structures of two novel semicarbazones and four gold(III) compound derivatives of these semicarbazones are presented. A pattern in the formation of the semicarbazones shows the association of Cl^– ions held together by intra- and intermolecular forces. [AuCl₄]^? and [AuBr₄]^? anions are co-crystallised with these semicarbazone ligands, and the packing architectures revealed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis showed the different influences of the anions and the association of these chemical species by intermolecular forces on the crystal packing. Crystal engineering led to gold(III) compounds that are stabilised by relevant hydrogen bonding networks, which demonstrated their importance to the supramolecular organisation of the studied compounds. Interestingly, Cl???Br interactions are observed and contribute to the formation of the supramolecular structures. Elemental analysis data and spectroscopic properties in the solid state and solution are also described.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic evaluation,molecular modelling,thermal study and biological evaluation of manganese(II) complexes derived from bidentate N,O and N,S donor Schiff base ligands

Manganese(II) complexes having the general composition Mn(L)₂X₂ (where L = 3‐bromoacetophenone semicarbazone, 3‐bromoacetophenone thiosemicarbazone, 1‐tetralone semicarbazone, 1‐tetralone thiosemicarbazone, flavanone semicarbazone or flavanone thiosemicarbazone and X = Cl^? or ½SO₄^2?) were synthesized. All the complexes were characterized using elemental analyses, molar conductance and magnetic moment measurements, and mass, ¹H NMR, infrared, electron paramagnetic resonance and electronic spectral studies. The molar conductance of the complexes in dimethylsulfoxide lies in the range 10–20 Ω^?1 cm² mol^?1 indicating their non‐electrolytic nature. All the complexes show magnetic moments corresponding to five unpaired electrons. The possible geometries of the complexes were assigned on the basis of electron paramagnetic resonance, electronic and infrared spectral studies. Some of the synthesized ligands and their complexes were screened for their antifungal activities against fungi Macrophomina phaseolina, Botrytis cinerea and Phoma glomerata using the food poison technique and their antibacterial activities against Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris and Ralstonia solanacearum using the paper disc diffusion method. They showed appreciable activities.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Zinc(II) Complex Salt with the Schiff Base of Picolinaldehyde N-oxide and Semicarbazone

1 INTRODUCTION The donor properties of pyridine N-oxide and its substituted derivatives to form metal complexes have been widely investigated[1～3]. The resulting comple- xes were used as drugs[4] and catalysts[5]. So far, there have been a few reports on the synthesis of Schiff base derived from picolinaldehyde N-oxide with se- micarbazone (PNOS Scheme 1) and its metal com- plexes. And crystal structures of the complexes of PNOS with Au(III)[6], Pd(II)[7] and Cu(II)[8] were re- …     

The relationship between ligand structures and their CoII and NiII complexes: Synthesis and characterization of novel dimeric CoII/CoIII complexes of bis(thiosemicarbazone)

4,6-Diacetylresorcinol serves as a starting point for the generation of multidentate S/N/O or O/N/O symmetrical chelating agents by condensation with thiosemicarbazide or semicarbazide to yield the corresponding bis(thiosemicarbazone) H₄L¹ or bis(semicarbazone) H₄L², respectively. Reaction of H₄L¹ and H₄L² with M(NO₃)₂·6H₂O (M?=?Co or Ni) afforded dimeric complexes for H₄L¹ and binuclear complexes for H₄L², revealing the tendency of S to form bridges. The dimeric cobalt complexes of H₄L¹ are very interesting in that they contain Co^II/Co^III, side/side, low-spin octahedral coordinated Co^III-ions and high-spin square-planar coordinated Co^II-ions. These complexes have the general formula [(H₂L¹)₂Co₂(H₂O) (NO₃)]·nEtOH. Arguments supporting these anomalous Co^II/Co^III structures are based on a pronounced decrease in their magnetic moments, elemental and thermal analyses, visible and IR spectra, as well as their unreactivity towards organic bases such as 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2′-bipyridine (Bpy), N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (Tmen) and 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine, Ox). The dimeric octahedral Ni^II complex [(H₂L¹)₂Ni₂(H₂O)₄]·3H₂O showed higher reactivity towards phen and Bpy and formed adducts; [(HL¹)Ni₂(B)(H₂O)₅] NO₃ (B?=?phen or Bpy). In the presence of oxine, the dimeric brown paramagnetic octahedral complex [(H₂L¹)₂Ni₂(H₂O)₄]·3H₂O was transformed to the dimeric brick-red diamagnetic square-planar complex [(H₃L¹)₂Ni₂](NO₃)₂. The latter showed dramatic behavior in its ¹H NMR spectrum in DMSO-d ₆, which was explained on the basis of H⁺-transfer. By contrast, the binuclear Ni^II–H₄L² complex (11) showed higher reactivity towards phen, Bpy and oxine. These reactions afforded mixed dimeric complexes having the molar ratio 2?:?2?:?1 (Ni^II?:?H₄L²?:?base). The binuclear Co^II–H₄L² complex afforded an adduct with phen and trinuclear complexes with Bpy and oxine. All complexes were found to be unreactive towards Tmen. Structural characterization was achieved by elemental and thermal analyses, spectral data (electronic, IR, mass and ¹H NMR spectra) and conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements.

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Spectroscopic Properties of Bis(1‐(E)‐2‐formylpyridine semicarbazone)nickel(II) Diperchlorate Monohydrate

Pale‐green crystals of the title complex were prepared by reaction of 2‐formylpyridine semicarbazone (HCSpy) and nickel(II) perchlorate in boiling ethanol. The crystals are triclinic with the nickel ion in an octahedral arrangement, coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen donor atom from each ligand molecule. The effect of coordination on bond lengths and angles was explored by comparison with the single‐crystal structure data of the free ligand HSCpy, which was collected as well. The assumed coordination mode was supported by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic data. A detailed analysis of the electronic properties, including semi‐empirical quantummechanical calculations is presented. Furthermore, the data obtained from magnetic susceptibility and EPR measurements are in accordance with a low‐spin d⁸ nickel(II) complex.
