An ionic iridium(Ⅲ) complex[Ir(F_2dpyb)(bzdpp)_2Cl][OTf]with 1,3-difluoro-4,6-di(2-pyridinyl) benzene(F_2dpybH) terdentate ligand and benzyldiphenylphosphine(bzdpp)ligand was synthesized and characterized.The structure of iridium complex was verified by single-crystal X-ray crystallography.It crystallizes in monoclinic,space group P2_1/n with a =14.3654(7),b = 23.0026(10),c = 15.7964(7) ?,β = 97.6029(11),V= 5173.9(4) ?~3,Z = 4,F(000) =2552,D_c = 1.645 Mg/m~3,M_r = 1281.49 and μ = 0.071 mm~(-1).The UV-vis absorption and phosphorescence of the complex were discussed.The complex was 'aggregation induced emission(AIE)' active.It exhibited no emission in CH_2Cl_2 solution but strong blue-green emission in solid state under ultraviolet light excitation.The complex emitted a strong phosphorescence centered at493 nm when doped in PMMA.Its lifetime is 0.755 μs and quantum yield is approximately 0.134.

Stereospecific Formation of Pentaamine Complexes of Co(III) with Terdentate 2,6-Bis(aminomethyl)pyridine

Some pentaamine complexes of Co(III) with 2,6-bis(aminomethyl)pyridine (bamp), a diamine ligand (or two ammonia ligands) and one unidentate ligand have been prepared (Table 1). In all these species, bamp remains coordinated meridionally under a variety of conditions as shown by ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR. spectroscopy and correlations by stereoretentive reaction cycles. The rates of amine proton exchange and of spontaneous aquation, Hg²⁺-induced aquation and base hydrolysis of some chloropentaamine complexes have been determined. They essentially follow the patterns observed for complexes with purely aliphatic amine ligands; the presence of a pyridine donor in these complexes does not suggest deviations from the mechanistic schemes usually proposed for the solvolytic reactions investigated.     

Ternary Complexes in Solution: Mixed Ligand Complexes of Co(lI), Ni(ll), Zn(lI), or Cd(lI) with N,S Donor Ligands

The stability constants of ternary Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), or Cd(II) complexes containing 2,2′-bipyridyl (bipy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) as a primary ligand and N-phenyl-2-mercaptopropion-amide (PMP) as a secondary ligand in a 1:1:1 molar ratio were determined using the Irving-Rossotti pH-titration technique in a 70% (v/v) dioxane-water mixture (I=0.1 M NaC104; 30 ± 1°C) in an inert atmosphere. The stability of these ternary complexes is discussed on the basis of π -accepting qualities of the sulfur ligand and the participating heteroaromatic N-base.     

Luminescent Platinum(IV) Complexes Bearing Cyclometalated 1,2,3-Triazolylidene and Bi- or Terdentate 2,6-Diarylpyridine Ligands

The synthesis, structure, and photophysical properties of luminescent Pt^IV complexes that combine cyclometalated 1,2,3-triazolylidene and bi- or terdentate 2,6-diarylpyridine ligands are reported. The targeted complexes represent the first examples of Pt^IV species with a cyclometalated mesoionic aryl-NHC ligand. They exhibit moderate or weak emissions in fluid solution at 298 K arising from ³LC states, which become very intense in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrices at 298 K. DFT and TD-DFT calculations confirm that the chromophoric ligand is the cyclometalated 2,6-diarylpyridine and show that the aryl-NHC ligand exerts a beneficial effect on the emission efficiencies of these derivatives by increasing the energy of deactivating LMCT excited states with respect to comparable Pt^IV complexes with cyclometalated 2-arylpyridine ligands.     

Modulated calorimetry of poly(1,4-oxybenzoate), poly(2,6-oxynaphthoate), and their copolymers

Poly(1,4-oxybenzoate) (POB) and poly(2,6-oxynaphthoate) (PON) and their copolymers which have a well-established phase diagram have been studied with temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC). All the analyzed polymers have more than one disordering transition between the glass transition (from 400 to 430 K) and decomposition (starting at ≈700 K). Above the glass transition, the reversible heat capacity, C_p, increases beyond that calculated from the crystallinity and the known C_p of the solid and melt. This is likely due to an increase of mobility within the crystals and/or a possible rigid-amorphous fraction (mainly for the copolymers). The disordering transitions are largely irreversible, supporting the observation that semicrystalline, linear macromolecules show decreasing amounts of locally reversible melting with increasing rigidity and crystal perfection.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Copper(II), Zinc(II), and Potassium Complexes of a Highly Fluorinated Bis(pyrazolyl)borate Ligand

Highly fluorinated, dihydridobis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrazolyl)borate ligand, [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)](-) has been synthesized and characterized as its potassium salt. The copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes, [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)](2)Cu and [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)](2)Zn, have been prepared by metathesis of [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)]K with Cu(OTf)(2) and Zn(OTf)(2), respectively. All the new metal adducts have been characterized by X-ray diffraction. The potassium salt is polymeric and shows several K.F interactions. The Cu center of [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)](2)Cu adopts a square planar geometry, whereas the Zn atom in [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)](2)Zn displays a tetrahedral coordination. Bis(pyrazolyl)borate ligands in the Zn adduct show a significantly distorted boat conformation. The nature and extent of this distortion is similar to that observed for the methylated analog, [H(2)B(3,5-(CH(3))(2)Pz)(2)](2)Zn. This ligand allows a comparison of electronic effects of bis(pyrazolyl)borate ligands with similar steric properties. Crystallographic data for [H(2)B(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Pz)(2)]K: triclinic, space group P&onemacr;, with a = 8.385(1) ?, b = 10.097(2) ?, c = 10.317(1) ?, alpha = 104.193(9) degrees, beta = 104.366(6) degrees, gamma = 91.733(9) degrees, V = 816.5(3) ?(3), and Z = 2.

Effect of pH/Auxiliary Ligand on the Structures of Coordination Compounds Based on a Novel Ligand 2,6-Bis(pyrazin-2-yl)pyridine-4-carboxylate

Four new coordination compounds, [Zn(bppc)_2(H_2O)_2]·3 H_2O(1), [Zn2(bppc)2(mbdc)(H_2O)4]·7 H_2O(2), [Zn(bppc)2(H_2O)2]n·n(m-Hbdc)·n(H_2O)(3), [Zn2(bppc)(btc)(H_2O)3]n·5 n H_2O(4)(Hbppc = 2,6-bis(pyrazin-2-yl)pyridine-4-carboxylate, H2(m-bdc) = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid, H3 btc = 1,3,5-benzene-tricarboxylic acid), have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Compound 1 shows a mononuclear structure and 2 shows a dinuclear structure. Compound 3 is a one-dimensional chain structure, which is extended into a 3D supramolecular network by intermolecular hydrogen interactions. In 4, a 1D loop-like chain is connected by(btc)3-anions to generate a 2D layer structure. The structure differences of 1~4 show that the p H and aromatic acid as auxiliary ligand have important influence on the final structures.iAdditionally, the luminescent properties of 1~4 have been investigated with fluorescent spectra in the solid state, and 1~4 display a strong fluorescent emission at room temperature and have potential applications as fluorescent-emitting materials.     

A Coordination Polymer of Nickel(II) Based on a Pentadentate N, S, and O Donor Ligand

The synthesis, structural characterization, and electrochemical properties of a Ni(II) complex derived from the template reaction of N,N'-bis(2-mercaptoethyl)-1,5-diazacyclooctane nickel(II), Ni-1, with ICH(2)CO(2)Na are described. Blue N-(3-thiabutyl)-N'-(3-thiapentanoate)-1,5-diazacyclooctanenickel(II)iodide, [(tbtp-daco)Ni][I], [5]I, contains Ni(II) in an octahedral environment with N(2)S(2)O(2) donor atoms; one oxygen is from an adjacent [(tbtp-daco)Ni] ion and has the same distance to Ni(II) as the intramolecular oxygen, resulting in a coordination polymer. Complex [5]I.H(2)O, C(13)H(27)N(2)O(3)S(2)NiI, crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 10.898(3), b = 18.103(5), c = 19.020(5), and Z = 8. The extent to which the polymer is retained in solution is counterion dependent, which influences redox properties (accessibility of Ni(I) and Ni(III)).     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Ligand Field Properties of Iron(II) Complexes with PNP Ligands: Origin of Large Ligand Field by a Phosphorous Donor Atom

New iron(II) complexes were synthesized with two tridentate hybrid ligands having phosphorous and nitrogen donor sites, in order to quantitatively estimate the difference of the ligand-field strengths of phosphorous and nitrogen donor sites in cationic metal complexes. Iron(II) complexes with bis(dimethylphosphinoethyl)amine (PNP) and 2,6-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)pyridine (PpyP) ligands crystallized as un-symmetric facial-[Fe(PNP)₂](PF₆)₂·CH₃NO₂ and mer-[Fe(PpyP)₂](CF₃SO₃)₂, respectively, as expected from the steric congestion and from the tendency to avoid the mutual trans influence between two phosphorous donor sites. Both complexes are in the low-spin electronic state up to 400 K. The pseudo-D _4h coordination geometry of the PpyP complex made it possible to separate axial (2 × N) and equatorial (4 × P) contributions to the overall ligand-field by means of a spectrometric method: the difference in the ligand-field strengths by the equatorial Ph₂P-donor sites and by the axial 2,6-disubstituted pyridine donor sites is ca. 13,200 cm^?1. A significantly reduced inter-electronic repulsion parameter (425 cm^?1 for both PNP and PpyP complexes) from the value of the free ion (1,060 cm^?1) indicates covalent interaction between the Fe(II) and P atoms even in these cationic metal complexes. It is shown that the degree of covalency as well as the coordination bond strengths between various metal ions and phosphorous/nitrogen donor atoms is successfully explained by the relative energy levels of interacting atomic orbitals calculated on the basis of the Thomas–Fermi–Dirac potential.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) Complexes of a New Vic-Dioxime Ligand

In this study, 1,2-dihydroxyimino-3,7-di-aza-9,10-O-α-methyl benzal decane (LH₂) was synthesized starting from 1,2-O-α-methyl benzal-4-aza-7-amino heptane (RNH₂) and antichloroglyoxime. With this ligand, complexes were synthesized using Ni(II) and Cu(II) salts with a metal:ligand ratio of 1:2. However, the reaction of the ligand with salts of Zn(II) and Cd(II) gave products with metal:ligand ratio of 1:1. Structures of the ligand and its complexes are proposed based on elemental analyses, IR, ¹³C- and ¹H-NMR spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA).     

Structural Characterization of (Arylimido)vanadium(V) Compounds with 2,6‐Difluorophenoxide Ligand

The (arylimido)vanadium(V) compound, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(OiPr)₃] was demonstrated to undergo ligand exchange reaction with one or two equivalents of 2,6‐difluorophenol, affording the (arylimido)vanadium(V) compounds, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(OiPr)₂(O‐2,6‐F₂Ph)] and [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(OiPr)(O‐2,6‐F₂Ph)₂]. Their X‐ray crystallographic analyses elucidated the μ‐isopropoxido‐bridged dimeric structures, wherein each vanadium atom has a trigonal‐bipyramidal arrangement with the imido and bridging isopropoxide ligands in the apical positions. The isopropoxide ligand was selectively employed as a bridging ligand between two central vanadium atoms. On the other hand, the reaction of the (arylimido)vanadium(V) compound, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)VCl₃] and three equivalents of lithium 2,6‐difluorophenoxide gave the (arylimido)vanadium(V) compound, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(O‐2,6‐F₂Ph)₃]. In the crystal packing, the thus‐obtained compound showed a distorted trigonal‐bipyramidal environment at the vanadium atoms with the μ‐phenoxido‐bridged dimeric structure, wherein the 2,6‐difluorophenoxide ligand was found to serve as a bridging ligand.     

The thermal properties of poly(oxy-1,4-benzoyl), poly(oxy-2,6-naphthoyl), and its copolymers

The thermal properties, i.e., heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs function, and the transition behavior of the copolymer system of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and 2,6-hydroxynaphthoic acid have been studied based on differential scanning calorimetry. The heat capacities of the glass, crystal, and anisotropic melt are shown to be largely additive on a molar basis. Additivity is lost in the two transition regions, glass transition and disordering transition. Isothermal crystallization experiments on the copolymers revealed the existence of two types of crystals which melt at high temperature (fast-grown crystals) and low temperature (slowly grown crystals). The ATHAS computation method is used to bring heat capacities of the solid state into agreement with approximate frequency spectra. The changes in heat capacity at the glass transitions occur at 434°K for the poly(oxy-1,4-benzoyl) [33.2 J/(K mol)] and at 420°K for poly(oxy-2,6-naphthoyl) [46.5 J/(K mol)]. The copolymers have a transition range of above 100°K. The anisotropic melt is linked to the well-known condis state of poly(oxy-1,4-benzoyl) by a continuous changes in disorder and mobility without an additional first-order transition.     

Ternary upper-critical-solution-temperature behavior in a blend system comprising poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide), poly(4-methyl styrene), and polystyrene

 Upper-critical-solution-temperature (UCST) behavior in a ternary blend of poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide), poly(4-methyl styrene), and polystyrene is reported. The as-cast ternary blend is immiscible at ambient conditions and comprises two different phases, and, however, turns into a miscible system above the “clarity point” ranging from 160 to 300 °C for different ternary compositions. The maximum clarity point is labeled as the UCST for the ternary system, which is about 295 °C. Above the clarity point, the originally immiscible ternary blend turned into one miscible phase. Owing to the thermodynamic UCST behavior and kinetic hindrance, the immiscible ternary polymer blend can be locked into a pseudo-miscible state if it is heated to a temperature above the clarity point followed by a rapid-cooling processing scheme. The quenched ternary blend can remain in a pseudo-miscible state as long as the service temperature does not exceed the glass-transition temperature of the blend.

Manganese(II), Cobalt(II), and Nickel(II) Perchlorate Complexes Containing N,O Donor Macrocyclic Ligands

Mononuclear macrocyclic complexes of manganese(II ), cobalt(II ) and nickel(II ) perchlorate using 10 different oxaazamacrocyclic ligands (L¹ — L¹⁰) have been prepared and characterized. The complexation reactions with the diiminic ligands were obtained by template condensation of the appropriate dialdehyde and diamine precursors; the reduced macrocycle complexes were synthesized using a direct route. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivity, mass spectrometry, IR, UV‐vis spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance and magnetic susceptibility measurements.     

Physicochemical and Biological Characterization of Transition Metal Complexes with a Nitrogen Donor Tetra-dentate Novel Macrocyclic Ligand

A novel tetradentate nitrogen donor [N₄] macrocyclic ligand, i.e. 3,5,13,15,21,22-hexaaza-2,6,12,16-tetramethyl-4,14-dithia-tricyclo[15.3.1.1(7–11)]docosane-1(21),2,5,7,9,11(22),12,15,17,19-decaene, has been synthesized. Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with this ligand have been prepared and subjected to elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility measurements, mass, ¹H-n.m.r. (Ligand), i.r., electronic, and e.p.r. spectral studies. On the basis of molar conductance the complexes may be formulated as [M(L)X₂] and [Ni(L)]X₂ [where M = Mn(II), Co(II) and Cu(II), and X = Cl⁻ and NO₃⁻] due to their nonelectrolytic nature in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO). All the complexes are of the high spin type and are six coordinated. On the basis of i.r., electronic and e.p.r. spectral studies an octahedral geometry has been assigned to Mn(II) and Co(II), square planar for Ni(II) complexes, and tetragonal for Cu(II) complexes. The antimicrobial activities of the ligand and its complexes, as growth inhibiting agents, have been screened in vitro against several species of bacteria and plant pathogenic fungi.     

The Interaction of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) with Mixed Donor Macrocycles Containing Pendant Carboxylic Acid Functions

The syntheses of mixed oxygen-nitrogen donor macrocycles incorporating two or three pendant carboxylic acid groups are described. Potentiometric titrations in water (I = 0.1; KNO₃) at 25°C have been used to determine the stability constants for the 1: 1 (metal:ligand) complexes of Co(II). Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II). The constants obtained are compared with the previously determined values for the corresponding complexes of the unsubstituted macrocyclic precursors. The results of these studies indicate that each carboxylate function participates in binding to the central metal. For some metal-ion/ligand systems there is evidence that ring size effects influence the overall stability patterns and that, in such cases, both the ether oxygens as well as the tertiary amines of the macrocyclic rings appear to bind to the metal.
