Synthesis of 2-D graphite-like and 3-D diamond-like silver(I) polymers with 1,3-imidazolidine-2-thione

Two metal–organic coordination polymers, [Ag₂(imdt)₃(OAc)₂] _n (1) (imdt = 1,3-imidazolidine-2-thione, OAc = CH₃COO^?) and [Ag(imdt)Cl] _n (2), were synthesized under similar conditions by using Et₃N (triethylamine) as buffering agent. X-ray diffraction shows that 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, C2 /c space group, a = 13.822(5) Å, b = 9.082(3) Å, c = 16.965(6) Å, V = 2114.2(14) ų, Z = 8, D _c = 2.012 g cm^?3. Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, P2₁2₁2₁ space group, a = 7.993(6) Å, b = 7.993(6) Å, c = 10.548(7) Å, V = 673.9(7) ų, Z = 4, D _c = 2.419 g cm^?3. Both 1 and 2 exhibit different architectures due to their different anions. Compound 1 shows a 2-D graphite-like network structure and 2 shows a 3-D diamond-like network structure.

Heterocyclic thioamides of copper(I): Synthesis and crystal structures of copper complexes with 1,3-imidazoline-2-thiones in the presence of triphenyl phosphine

Reaction of copper(I) chloride with 1,3-imidazoline-2-thione (imzSH) in the presence of Ph₃P in 1:2:2 or 1:1:2 (M:L:PPh₃) molar ratios yielded a compound of unusual composition, [Cu₂(imzSH)(PPh₃)₄Cl₂] · CH₃OH (1), whose X-ray crystallography has shown that its crystals consist of four coordinated [CuCl(1κS-imzSH)(PPh₃)₂] (1a), and three coordinated [Cu(PPh₃)₂Cl] (1b) independent molecules in the same unit cell. In contrast, crystals of complexes of copper(I) bromide/iodide are formed by single molecules of [CuBr(1κS-imzSH)(PPh₃)₂] · H₂O (2) and [CuI(1κS-imzSH)(PPh₃)₂] (3), respectively, similar to molecule 1a. The related ligand, 1,3-benzimidazoline-2-thione (bzimSH) formed a complex [CuBr(1κS-bzimSH)(PPh₃)₂] · CH₃COCH₃ (4), similar to 2. The formation of 1a and 1b has been also revealed by NMR spectroscopy. The NMR spectra of 2–4 also showed weak signals indicating formation of compounds similar to 1b. It reveals that the lability of the Cu–S bond varies in the order: Cl ? Br ∼ I. Weak interactions {e.g. C–H?π electrons of ring, –NH?halogens/oxygen, C–H?halogens/oxygen, π?π (between rings)} have played an important role in building 2D chains of complexes 1–4.     

Tetrakis(thione)platinum(II) complexes: synthesis,spectroscopic characterization,crystal structures,and in vitro cytotoxicity

A new series of platinum(II) complexes based on thione ligands with general formula [Pt(thione)₄]X₂ (X^??=?Cl^?, NO₃^?) has been synthesized and characterized using CHNS elemental analysis, infrared, ¹H and ¹³C solution-state NMR as well as ¹³C and ¹⁵N solid-state NMR spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. The spectroscopic methods confirm the coordination of Pt(II) with thiocarbonyl groups via sulfur of the thione ligands. The X-ray structures showed a distorted square planar geometry for 1, [Pt(MeImt)₄]Cl₂ (MeImt = N-Methylimidazolidine-2-thione) while the hydrogen bonding interactions in 7, [Pt(iPrImt)₄](NO₃)₂·0.6(H₂O) induce a bent see-saw distortion relative to the ideal square planar geometry. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies showed that 2, [Pt(EtImt)₄]Cl₂ is generally the most effective, a two-fold better cytotoxic agent than cisplatin and carboplatin against MCF7 (human breast cancer).

Hydrogen-bond networks of 1,3-imidazolidine-2-thione: synthesis and structures of complexes of silver(I), copper(I), cadmium(II) and zinc(II)

Solution reactions of silver(I), copper(I), cadmium(II) and zinc(II) salts with 1,3-imidazolidine-2-thione (imdt) under diverse conditions yielded four complexes: [Cd(SC₃H₆N₂)₂(Ac)₂] (1), [Zn(SC₃H₆N₂)₂(Ac)₂] (2), [Cu₂(SC₃H₆N₂)₆]SO₄ (3) and [Ag₂(SC₃H₆N₂)₆]SO₄ (4). Complexes 1 and 2 are 1D and 2D hydrogen-bond aggregations. Complexes 3 and 4 are isostructural 3D hydrogen-bond networks. The diverse coordination modes of imdt and different anions are the major factors for three distinct hydrogen-bond structures.

Synthesis of Cyclic Carbonate Catalyzed by DBU Derived Basic Ionic Liquids

In this work, 1,8‐diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec‐7‐ene (DBU), 1,5‐diazabicyclo[4.3.0]‐5‐nonene (DBN), and imidazole (MIM)‐derived bromide ionic liquids (ILs) were synthesized and used to catalyze the cycloaddition reactions of carbon dioxide (CO₂) with several kinds of epoxides to form cyclic carbonates. The DBU derived bromide ionic liquid system was found to have the best catalytic activity among all the tested ILs. The influences of reaction conditions (including temperature, pressure and reaction time) on the reaction of CO₂ to propylene oxide (PO) were studied to show the best conditions of 120 °C, 1 MPa, 2.5 h catalyzed by 2 mol% DBU‐derived bromide ionic liquid, with the conversion of PO and the selectivity of propylene carbonate (PC) reaching 99% and 99%, respectively. Under the optimum reaction conditions, the ionic liquid system could be reused at least five times without decrease in selectivity and conversion. NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations were used to reveal the hydrogen‐bond interaction between ionic liquids and reagent, based on which the reaction mechanism was proposed.
