Chloroaqua Complexes [M3S4(H2O)9?xClx](4?x)+ (M = Mo, W; x = 4, 6, 7) and Their Supramolecular Compounds with Cucur[8]uril

Compounds of trigonal cluster chloroaqua complexes with cucurbit[8]uril were synthesized by slowly evaporating HCl solutions of chalcogenides heterometallic cubane cluster complexes of molybdenum and tungsten with cucurbit[8]uril in air; the complexes were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis: (H₃O)₈[Mo₃S₄(H₂O)_2.5Cl_6.5]₂Cl(PdCl₄)·(C₄₈H₄₈N₃₂O₁₆)· 29H₂O (a = 13.3183(17) Å, b = 13.7104(18) Å, c = 18.225(3) Å; α = 80.263(3)°, β = 77. 958(3)°, γ = 87.149(4)°, V = 3207.4(7) ų, space group P , Z = 1, ρ(calc) = 1.900 g/cm³), (H₃O)₄ [Mo₃S₄(H₂O)₃Cl₆]₂·(C₄₈H₄₈N₃₂O₁₆)₃·68H₂O (a = 21.413(6) Å, c = 49.832(10) Å; γ = 120°, V = 19788(8) ų, space group R , Z = 3, ρ(calc) = 1.695 g/cm³), (H₃O)₆ [Mo₃S₄(H₂O)₃Cl₆]₂Cl₂·(C₄₈H₄₈N₃₂O₁₆)·12H₂O (a = 15.881(2) Å, b = 17.191(2) Å, c = 23.276(4) Å; β = 98.865(15)°, V = 6278.7(15) ų, space group P2₁/c, Z = 2, ρ(calc) = 1.638 g/cm³), [W₃S₄(H₂O)₅Cl₄]₂·(C₄₈H₄₈N₃₂O₁₆)₃·35H₂O (a = 21.038(3) Å; α = 61.20(1)°, V = 6762.0(14) ų, space group R , Z = 1, ρ(calc) = 1.582 g/cm³). The [Mo₃S₄(H₂O)₃Cl₆]²⁻ anion complex was isolated as three geometrical isomers.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by E. V. Chubarova, D. G. Samsonenko, H. G. Platas, F. M. Dolgushin, A. V.

Competitive formation of 4-aminoisoxazoles and 5-aminooxazoles in the cyclization reactions of O-alkylated hydroxyimino nitriles

Base-catalyzed cyclization of O-alkylated α-hydroxyimino nitriles gave mixtures of 4-aminoisoxazoles and 5-aminooxazoles, their ratio depending on the substituent structures and the reaction conditions. The formation mechanism of 5-aminooxazoles in this reaction is discussed. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 1773–1780, October, 2006.     

AM1 study of photoelectron spectra.

The -orbital structure of the monomeric form of the 2,2,4,6-tetrachloro-2,2-dihydro-1,5,2-diazaphosphorinine has been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy and using quantum-chemical calculations by the semiempirical AM1 method. It has been concluded that the electronic and energy characteristics of four higher -MOs (frontier and three next orbitals) of this compound may be interpreted in terms of semipolar bonds formed by three atoms (C, P, and N). For describing two low-lying -MOs of the ⁴,⁵-phosphorine studied, it is necessary to take into account the --interaction.For Part 8, see Ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure Determination, and Physicochemical Study of the Nickel(II) Complex of 4-(Pyridyl-2)-1,2,4-triazole

A new trinuclear nickel(II) complex with 4-(pyridyl-2)-1,2,4-triazole (pytrz), [Ni₃(pytrz)₆(H₂O)₆](NO₃)₆, has been synthesized, and its crystal structure has been determined. The compound was studied by X-ray phase analysis (XRPA), magnetochemical measurements, and electronic and IR spectroscopy.     

Crown compounds for anions. Sandwich complex of cyclic trimeric perfluoro-o-phenylenemercury with [B12H11SCN]2– anion

The reaction of cyclic trimeric perfluoro-o-phenylenemercury (o-C₆F₄Hg)₃ (1) with the polyhedral [B₁₂H₁₁SCN]^2– anion in THF at 20 °C affords the {[(o-C₆F₄Hg)₃](B₁₂H₁₁SCN)}^2– (4) and {[(o-C₆F₄Hg)₃]₂(B₁₂H₁₁SCN)}^2– (5) complexes. Complex 5 was isolated as the tetrabutylammonium salt. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that this complex has a bent-sandwich structure in which the [B₁₂H₁₁SCN]^2– anion is located between the planes of two molecules 1 and is coordinated to both these molecules through B—H—Hg bridges and S—Hg bonds. The stability constants of complexes 4 and 5 in THF (20 °C), which were determined from the IR spectroscopic data, are 16 L mol^–1 and 992 L² mol^–2, respectively.     

Inclusion of nickel(<Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">II</Emphasis>) and copper(<Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">II</Emphasis>) complexes with aliphatic polyamines in cucurbit[8]uril

The inclusion compound of macrocyclic cavitand cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) with the nickel(II) complex containing the tetraazamacrocyclic ligand cyclam, {[Ni(cyclam)]@CB[8]}Cl₂··16H₂O (1), and the inclusion compounds of CB[8] with the copper(II) bis-ethylene-diamine complex, {trans-[Cu(en)₂(H₂O)₂]@CB[8]}Cl₂·{CB[8]}·42H₂O (2a) and {trans-[Cu(en)₂(H₂O)₂]@CB[8]}Cl₂·17H₂O (2b), were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, IR and ESR spectroscopy, and electrospray mass spectrometry. Guest—host inclusion compounds can be directly synthesized starting from a metal complex and cucurbit[8]uril, as was exemplified by the preparation of compounds 2a and 2b.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.
