19F NMR study of relative polarities and reactivities of N-H,N-Hg,and N-Au bonds in 2-(4-fluorophenyl)benzimidazole and its PhHg and Ph3PAu derivatives in intermolecular exchange

It has been shown by the¹⁹F NMR method that the relative polarities of nitrogenelement bonds in 2-(4-fluorophenyl)benzimidazole and its PhHg and PPh₃Au derivatives increase in the order N-H19F NMR. It has been found that these reactions occur by a bimolecular associative mechanism and that the N-H bond is substantially less reactive than the N-Hg and N-Au bonds, which have identical reactivities within the limits of sensitivity of the method used.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis,structure, and magnetic properties of the cobalt(<Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">II</Emphasis>) 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate layered coordination polymer

The reaction of Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (H₃btc, trimesic acid) in DMF at 100 °C afforded the coordination polymer [Co₃(dmf)₆(btc)(Hbtc)(H₂btc)]··9H₂O (1) (dmf is N,N′-dimethylformamide, DMF). According to the X-ray diffraction study, the metal-organic coordination polymer is composed of planar honeycomb (6,3) networks, in which the organic benzenetricarboxylate anions and the inorganic Co²⁺ cations play a role of three-connected nodes. Disordered water molecules are intercalated between the layers. A study of the magnetic properties showed the presence of a weak antiferromagnetic coupling between the Co²⁺ ions (S = 3/2).

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).

Inclusion of Two PhP(O)(OH) 2 Guest Molecules into the Cavity of Macrocyclic Cavidand Cucurbit[8]uril

A new inclusion compound which is a supramolecular adduct of cucurbit[8]uril with two guest molecules of phenylphosphonic acid, PhP(O)(OH)₂, included into the cavity as ``two guests in host'' is reported. The guests match both size and hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity requirements. Two phenyl groups of molecules of PhP(O)(OH)₂ are directed toward the center of the large hydrophobic cavity whereas the PO(OH)₂ groups are outward-looking and bound with each hydrophilic portal of cucurbit[8]uril by a short hydrogen bond.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of Nb2S4(S2NCEt2)4, the first molecular complex containing an [Nb2(μ2-S2)2]4+ fragment

The crystal structure was determined for Nb₂S₄(S₂NCEt₂)₄ obtained in 48% yield by the reaction of Cs₄Nb₂S₄(NCS)₈ with NaS₂CNEt₂ in water: a=21.181(8), b=6.958(1), c=16.623(6) Å, =133.95(2)^o, V = 1764(1) ų, space group C2/m, Z=2, d_calc=1.708 g/cm³. The measurements were carried out on a Syntex P2₁ diffractometer with CuK radiation. A total of 2536 reflections were measured, of which 990 were used, R_aniso=0.0444. The basic fragment in this molecule is [Nb₂(₂–S₂)₂]⁴⁺, the Nb–Nb distance in which corresponds to a metal-metal single bond. The molecule is partially disordered over two positions about the twofold axis and mirror plane of the C2/m space group. The dithiocarbamate and disulfide ligands with bidentate coordination form a distorted square antiprism about each of the niobium atoms as in NbS₂Cl₂. The anomalously large S–S bond length in the S₂ ligand [2.282(5) Å] may be attributed to inaccuracy in the determination due to disorder.Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences.

Researches on aromatic heterocyclic compounds III. The aromatic character of piazthiol

The PMR spectra of piazthiol, which is benzo[1,2-c]-[1,2,5]-thiodiazole, and of its- and-nitro, chloro, methyl and amino derivatives are investigated. The effects of these substituents on the chemical shift is in qualitative agreement with the like effects in the benzene series. The parameters of the corresponding PMR spectra are greatly dependent on the electrophilic action of the heterocyclic ring. It is shown that there is conjugation in the thiadiazole ring, although, however, it is much weakened compared with that existing in the benzene ring.For Part II see [10].The authors thank V. F. Bystrov for discussions, and for making the double resonance measurements with-methylpiazthiol in a JNM-C-60 spectrometer.
