Three New Zn(Ⅱ) Coordination Compounds Based on the in-situ Formed Tetrazolate Ligand: Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Luminescence Properties

Reactions of 2-(2-benzoimidazolyl)acetonitrile and Na N3 with Zn SO4 or Zn Cl2 in the presence of nicotinic acid in the mixture of Et OH/H2 O afforded a mononuclear compound [Zn(L1)2](1) and a 1-D polymer [Zn(L1)Cl]n(2), respectively(L1 = 5-[(benzoimidazolyl)methyl]-1H-tetrazolate). However, in the similar condition except that imidazole was added instead of nicotinic acid, the reaction afforded a 1-D compound [Zn(L1)2]n(3) featuring triply helical chains via the π-π stacking of ligands. They are characterized by elemental analysis and IR, and their structures have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Thermal stability of these compounds was measured by TGA and their luminescent properties were investigated at room temperature.

Mononuclear Cu(II)bipyridine(1)and phenantroline complexes(2)were synthesized and immobilized by different procedures on H3PW12O40 polyoxometalate(POM).Characterization by XRD and SEM-EDX were performed to assess the preservation of the Keggin structure and stoichiometry of the complex.The immobilized complexes were tested as heterogeneous catalysts for the partial oxidation of tetralin(1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene)using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant in acetonitrile/water as solvent.[Cu(2,2’-bpy)Cl][H2PW12O40] and[Cu(1,10-phen)Cl][H2PW12O40]oxidized tetralin at room temperature,with 16%conversion with(2),to 1-tetralone and 2-tetralone with 83%selectivity.However,the selectivity for 1-tetralone was only 56%.Different preparation methods for the heterogenization of these complexes on the POM Keggin unit were compared and used to enhance the selectivity to 1-tetralone to 75%.     

Synthesis, Characterization and Conductivity of α-Keggin-type Nanoparticles, Co(en)3PMo12O40·8H2O with Optical Activity

Polyoxometallates Co(en)3PMo12O40·8H2O( ,-)[abbreviated as PMo12-Co( ,-)], nanoparticles were synthesized by the chemical precipitation reaction at room temperature for the first time. They were characterized by means of elemental analyses, IR spectrometry and X-ray diffraction. The images of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and the results of calculation by using the Scherrer equation for the line widths of the XRD patterns were used to estimate the average particle size of the powder products, which was 40 nm. The results show that the nanoparticle size was affected by starting materials′ concentrations. The particles had a small size and a narrow distribution, when the concentrations of H3PMo12O40·24H2O and Co(en)3I3·H2O were around 1.7×10-4 and 1.0×10-3 mol/L, respectively. When the concentration was increased, there was no significant increase in the particle size, but more polydisperse Co(en)3(PMo12O40)( , -) were obtained. In poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) with an average molecular weight(MW) of 600 g/mol and containing LiClO4[n(O)/n(Li)=100∶1] as the supporting electrolyte, the conductivity of the composite system increases upon the addition of PMo12-Co( or -) nanoparticles, which was measured by the a.c. impedance technique. The interactions among PEG, LiClO4, PMo12, and Co can be used to explain that the PMo12-Co( or -) nanoparticles could promote the conductivity of the PEG-LiClO4-PMo12-Co system.     

DFT and TDDFT investigations on the ground and excited states for polynuclear platinum(II) complexes containing the rigid phenylacetylide ligand

We have studied the ground and excited states of the three dendritic polynuclear Pt(II) complexes 1-[Cl(PH3)2PtC≡≡ C]-3,5-[HC≡≡ C]C6H3 (1), 1,3-[Cl(PH3)2PtC≡≡ C]2-5-[HC≡≡ C]C6H3 (2), and 1,3,5-[Cl(PH3)2- PtC≡≡ C]3C6H3 (3), by using the B3LYP and UB3LYP methods, respectively. TDDFT approach with the PCM model was performed to predict the emission spectra properties of 1―3 in CH2Cl2 solution. We first predicted the excited-state geometries for the three complexes. With the change of the number of Pt(II) atom, 1―3 show the different geometry structures in both the ground and excited states; fur- thermore, the increase of the metal density from 1 to 3 results in the red shift of the lowest-energy emissions along the series. The luminescent properties of 1 are somewhat different from those of 2 and 3. The emission properties of 2 and 3 are richer than 1. Our conclusion can give a good support for designing the high efficient luminescent materials.
