Pyridine solvated dioxouranium complex with salen ligand: Synthesis,characterization and luminescence properties

A new derivative of dioxouranium(VI) salen complex, [UO2(L)(pyridine)], where [L = N,N′-Bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine] is synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis (C, H, N), FT-IR, ESI-MS spectrometry, UV/Vis, fluorescence, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and thermal gravimetric (TG) study. Furthermore, the single crystal X-ray diffraction measurements of the complex were carried out at 100 and 273 K. The crystal structure measurements revealed that the complex has distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry with uranium atom located at the centre and bonded to two phenoxy oxygen and two azomethine nitrogen in tetradenate fashion and one nitrogen from pyridine making it seven coordinated. In addition, the photoluminescence property of the complex was also recorded.     

Spectrophotometric determination of isonicotinic acid hydrazide

Summary Isonicotinic acid hydrazide reacts with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride in acidic medium in presence of excess of thallium(III) to give a pink-coloured formazan having maximum absorption at 480 nm. This colour reaction is used to determine isonicotinic acid hydrazide in urine and blood. The reaction is specific for isonicotinic acid hydrazide, and the visual limit of identification is1 g per ml.

Triosmium clusters derived from the reactions of thioureas with dodecacarbonyltriosmium: Crystal structures of [Os3(CO)11{η 1-SC(NMe2)2}], [Os3(CO)9(μ-OH)(μ-OMeOCO){η 1-SC(NMe2)2}] and [(μ-H)Os3(CO)9{μ 3-NHC(S)NH2}]

The reaction of [Os₃(CO)₁₂] with tetramethylthiourea in the presence of a methanolic solution of Me₃NO·2H₂O at 60° yields the compounds [Os₃(CO)₁₁{η ¹-SC(NMe₂)₂}] (1) in 56% yield and [Os₃(CO)₉(μ-OH)(μ-MeOCO){η ¹-SC(NMe₂)₂}] (2) in 10% yield in which the tetramethylthiourea ligand is coordinatedvia the sulfur atom at an equatorial position. Compound2 is a 50 e^? cluster with two metal-metal bonds and the hydroxy and methoxycarbonyl ligands bridging the open metal-metal edge. In contrast, the analogous reaction of [Os₃(CO)₁₂] with thiourea gives the compounts [(μ-H)Os₃(CO)₁₀{μ-NHC(S)NH₂}] (3) in 8% yield and [(μ-H)Os₃(CO)₉{₃-NHC(S)NH₂}] (4) in 30% yield. In3, the thioureato ligand bridges two osmium atomsvia the sulfur atom, whereas in4 in addition to the sulfur bridge, one of the nitrogen atoms of thioureato moiety bonds to the remaining osmium atom. The decacarbonyl compounds 3 can also be obtained in 50% yield from the reaction of [Os₃(CO)₁₀(MeCN)₂] with thiourea at ambient temperature. Compound3 converts to4 (65%) photochemically. Compound1 reacts with PPh₃ and acetonitrile at ambient temperature to give the simple substitution products [Os₃(CO)₁₁(PPh₃)] and [Os₃(CO)₁₁(MeCN)], respectively, while with pyridine, the oxidative addition product [(μ-H)Os₃(CO)₁₀(μ-NC₅H₄] is formed at 80°C. All the new compounds are characterized by IR,¹-H-NMR and elemental analysis together with the X-ray crystal structures of1,2 and4. Compound1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P $P\bar 1$ with unit cell parametersa = 8.626(3) Å,b = 11.639(3) Å,c = 12.568(3_ Å,α = 84.67(2)°,β = 75.36(2)°,γ = 79.49(3)°,V = 1199(1) ų, andZ = 2. Least-squares refinement of 4585 reflections gave a final agreement factor ofR = 0.0766 (R _w = 0.0823). Compound2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2_1/n with unit cell parametersa = 9.149(5) Å,b = 17.483(5) Å,c = 15.094(4) Å,β = 91.75(2)°,V = 2413(2) ų, andZ = 4. Least-squares refinement of 3632 reflections gave a final agreement factor ofR = 0.0603 (R _w = 0.0802). Compound4 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell parametersa = 13.915(7) Å,b = 14.718(6) Å,c = 17.109(6) Å,β = 100.44(3)°,V = 3446(5) ų, andZ = 8. Least-squares refinement of 2910 reflections gave a final agreement factor ofR = 0.0763 (R _w = 0.0863).     

Applications of Inorganic Polymeric Materials, III: Polyphosphazenes

Polyphosphazenes form one of the most important and interesting classes of inorganic polymers having a backbone of alternating phosphorus and nitrogen atoms with phosphorus atom bearing two organic side groups. The most important feature of these polymers is the synthesis route which allows the side groups to be changed over a wide range to obtain a broad variety of products with different properties from elastomers to glasses, water soluble to hydrophobic polymers, bioinert to bioactive materials, and electrical insulators to conductors. In this paper, some novel applications of these polymers in biomedical materials and advanced devices are reviewed.
