Ni(II) complexes with 8-aminoquinoline derivatives

Some Ni(II) complexes with 5,7-dicloro-8-aminoquinoline (dcaq), 5,7-dibromo-8-aminoquinoline(dbaq) and 5,7-diiodo-8-aminoquinoline(diaq) are described. The compounds are of stoichiometry NiL₂X₂(L= dcaq, dbaq, diaq; X= NO^?₃ and L= dbaq; X= Cl^?, Br^?, I^?, NCS^?) and NiLX₂·H₂O(L= dcaq, diaq; X= Cl^?). The electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility data at room temperature, are consistent with octahedral geometry for the Ni(II) in each compound. I.r. spectra show the presence of ionic and bridging nitrate groups in the compounds NiL₂(NO₃)₂(L= dcaq, dbaq, diaq) and we assign them polymeric structures. Polymeric structures with bridging chloride are proposed for the compounds NiLCl₂·H₂O(L= dcaq, diaq) and monomeric octahedral structures for NiL₂X₂(L= dbaq; X= Cl, Br, I, NCS).     

Thermally induced isomerisation and decomposition of diethylenetriamine complexes of nickel(II) in the solid state

Summary Complexes [NiL₂]X₂·nH₂O (L=diethylenetriamine; n=O when X=CF₃CO₂ or CCl₃CO₂; n=1 when X=Cl or Br, and n=3 when X=0.5SO₄ or 0.5SeO₄) and NiLX₂·nH₂O (n=1 when X=Cl or Br; n=3 when X=0.5SO₄ or 0.5SeO₄) have been synthesised and investigated thermally in the solid state. NiLSO₄ was synthesised pyrolytically in the solid state from [NiL₂]SO₄·[NiL₂]X₂ (X=Cl or Br) undergo exothermic irreversible phase transitions (242–282° C and 207–228° C; H=–11.3 kJ mol^–1 and –1.9 kJ mol^–1 for [NiL₂]Cl₂ and [NiL₂]Br₂, respectively). [NiL₂]-phenomenon (158–185° C; H=2.0 kJ mol^–1). NiLX₂· nH₂O (n=1 or 3) undergo simultaneous deaquation-isomerisation upon heating. All the complexes possess octahedral geometry.     

Co-ordination compounds of diacetyldihydrazone and diacetylbis(monomethylhydrazone)

Summary Diacetyldihydrazone (DADH) forms only six-coordinate complexes with iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II). In M(DADH)₂X₂ (M=Fe, X=Br or I; M=Co, X=I; M=Ni, X=Cl, Br or NCS) the ligand is chelating in the [M(DADH)₃]²⁺ cations, while in M(DADH)₂X₂ (M=Co, X=Cl or Br; M=Ni, X=Cl or Br) the ligand is probably bridging and bidentate. Diacetylbismonomethylhydrazone (DAMH), by contrast, forms predominantly tetrahedral complexes M(DAMH)X₂ (M=Fe or Co, X=Cl or Br; M=Ni, X=Br; M=Co, X=NCS; M=Zn, X=Cl, Br or NCS) and some octahedral complexes M(DAMH)₂X₂ (M=Co, X=NCS; M=Ni, X=Br). The i.r. spectra, electronic spectra and magnetic moments of the complexes are discussed.     

Oxidation of (7,16-diethyl-5,6,7,8,9,14,15,16,17,18-decahydrodibenzo[b,i][1,4,8,11]tetraazacyclotetradecine)nickel(II) complexes

The oxidation reaction of two isomers of (7,16-diethyl-5,6,7,8,9,14,15,16,17,18-decahydrodibenzo[b,i]-[1,4,8,11]tetraazacyclotetradecine)nickel(II) diperchlorate and/or dichloride (NiL¹X₂ (X = ClO₄, Cl)) in methanol in air under atmospheric pressure leads to the production of (7,16-diethyl-5,6,7,8,9-pentahydrodibenzo-[b,i][1,4,8,11]tetraazacyclotetradecinato)nickel(II) complexes (NiL²X). Proton and ¹³C nmr spectra suggest that NiL²X is formed by partial oxidation from a macrocyclic skeleton of NiL¹X₂. The dehydrogenation of NiL¹X₂ does not occur at symmetric positions such as d- and k-positions of the macrocyclic skeleton but at unsymmetrical positions such as d- and f-positions. Treatment of NiL¹X₂ and/or NiL²X in a methanol solution with an excess of bases in air gives (7,16-diethyldibenzo[b,t][1,4,8,11]tetraazacyclotetradecinato)nickel(II) (NiL³).     

[NiL2X2] oder [HL][NiLX3] – Reaktion sterisch anspruchsvoller Trialkylphosphine L mit NiX2 (X = Cl,Br) in Ethanol

[NiL₂X₂] or [HL][NiLX₃] – Reaction of Sterically Demanding Trialkylphosphines L with NiX₂ (X = Cl, Br) in Ethanol The reaction of some sterically demanding trialkylphosphines L = PR₂R′ (R = ⁱPr, R′ = ^tBu; R = ^tBu, R′ = ⁱPr, Me) with NiX₂ (X = Cl, Br) in ethanol affords instead of the expected non-electrolytes [NiL₂X₂] tertiary phosphonium nickelates [HL][NiLX₃] due to participation of the solvent. In case of the less bulky P^tBu₂Me both complex types were obtained. [Ni(P^tBu₂Me)₂Cl₂] is tetrahedral and therefore one of the two examples of paramagnetic bis(trialkylphosphine)dihalogenonickel(II) complexes known so far. In solution the latter compound undergoes an equilibrium of tetrahedral (paramagnetic) and planar (diamagnetic) conformer. Vis spectra as well as the results of magnetic measurements and ¹H and ³¹P NMR investigations are reported.     

The coordination chemistry ofN,N′-ethylenebis(2-acetylpyridine imine) andN,N′-ethylenebis(2-benzoylpyridine imine); two potentially tetradentate ligands containing four nitrogen atoms

Summary New complexes of the general formulae [ML_A(H₂O)₂]-Cl₂ (M=Ni or Cu), [ML_AX₂] (M=Co or Cu; X=Cl or Br), [NiL_ABr₂]·H₂O, [ML_A] [MCl₄] (M=Pd or Pt), [NiL_B(H₂O)₂]Cl₂·2H₂O, [ML_BCl₂] (M=Co, Ni, Cu, Pd or Pt; X=Cl or Br) and [ML_B] [MCl₄] (M=Pd or Pt), where L_A=N,N-ethylenebis(2-acetylpyridine imine) and L_B=N, N-ethylenebis(2-benzoylpyridine imine), have been isolated. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, t.g./d.t.g. methods, magnetic susceptibilities and spectroscopic (i.r., far-i.r., ligand field,¹Hn.m.r.) studies. Monomeric pseudo-octahedral stereochemistries for the Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II complexes andcis square planar structures for the compounds [ML_BX₂] (M=Pd or Pt; X=Cl or Br) are assigned in the solid state. The molecules L_A and L_B behave as tetradentate chelate ligands in the Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Magnus-type Pd^II and Pt^II complexes, bonding through both the pyridine and methine nitrogen atoms. A bidentateN-methine coordination of the Schiff base L_B is assigned in the [ML_BX₂] complexes (M=Pd or Pt; X=Cl or Br). The anomalous magnetic moment values of the Co^II complexes are discussed.     

Thermally induced solid-state isomerisation and decomposition of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine nikel(II) complexes

Summary Complexes [NiL₃]Br₂·H₂O (L=2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine), [NiL₂X₂] (X=Cl, Br, NCS, CF₃CO₂, HCCl₂CO₂ or CCl₃CO₂ and X₂=SO₄ or SeO₄) and [NiL(HCCl₂CO₂)₂]·H₂O have been synthesised and their thermal studies have been investigated in the solid state. The complexes, [NiL₂X₂] (X=Cl or Br) and NiLX₂ (X=Cl or HCCl₂CO₂) have been isolated thermally in the solid state. All the complexes possess octahedral geometry. [NiL₂Br₂] and [NiL₂(CF₃CO₂)₂] exist in two interconvertible isomeric forms. H for the conversions were determined. [NiL₂(HCCl₂CO₂)₂] (5) undergoes an irreversible phase transition (178–188°C; H=4.4kJ mol^–1]. NiL(HCCl₂CO₂)₂·H₂O shows an exothermic irreversible phase transition (104–128°C; H=–5.8 kJ mol^–1) after losing water. The phase transitions are assumed to be due to the conformational changes in the chelate ring of diamine.     

Zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) complexes of 4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidine-2(1H)-one

The following zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) complexes of 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2(1H)-one (L) have been prepared and investigated by conductometric,IR and Raman methods: MX₂L₂ (M = Zn, X = Cl, Br(CHCl₃, I(CHCl₃, CF₃COO; M = Cd, X = Cl, Br CF₃COO; M = Hg, X = Cl, CF₃COO), Cd₂I₄L₃, Hg₃X₆L₂ (X = Cl, Br), Hg₃X₆L₄(X = Br, I), MX₂L₄·6H₂O (M = Zn, Cd, X = CIO₄, BF₄; M = Hg, X = CIO₄. The ligand is principally bonded through the unprotonated nitrogen atom and in some complexes also through the carbonylic oxygen atom. The zinc halide complexes are tetrahedrally coordinated, the trifluoroacetate ion is coordinated as a monodentate ligand.

Pyridine-type complexes of transition metal halides

Formation of nitrogen ligated complexes of types NiL₆X₂, NiL₄X₂, NiL₂X₂ and NiL₁X₂ (whereL=pyridine, 2-, 3- and 4-methyl-pyridine andX=F, Cl, Br, I) have been studied by traditional preparative methods, i.e. from solutions and by solid-gas phase chemisorption. Quaternary mixed complexes were obtained by chemisorption from heated intermediates. The complexes thus formed were further analysed by simultaneous TG-DTG-DTA. Effects of the ligands on stoichiometry and thermal properties of the complexes are discussed.     

Preparation,infrared, Raman and N.M.R. spectra of N,N′-Diethylthiourea complexes with zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) halides

Several complexes of N,N′-diethylthiourea (Dietu) with zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) halides were prepared and characterized by i.r. (4000–60 cm^?1), raman (400–60 cm^?1), in the solid state and n.m.r. and conductometric methods in solution. The complexes Zn(Dietu)₂X₂, Cd(Dietu)₂X₂ (X ? Cl, Br, I) and Hg(Dietu)₂X₂ (X ? Br, I) are tetrahedral species in which intramolecular ? NH …? X interactions have been observed. The 1:1 mercury(II) complexes, Hg(Dietu)X₂ (X ? Cl, Br), appear to have a dimeric tetrahedral halide-bridged structure in the solid state. In all these complexes N,N′-diethylthiourea is sulphur-bonded to the metal.     

Nickel(II)- und Kobalt(II)-Komplexe des trans-2-Äthylmercapto-cyclohexyl-phenylphosphins

Preparation and properties of nickel(II) and cobalt(II) chelates of the bidentate ligand trans-2-ethylthio-cyclohexyl-phenylphosphine (ÄMCPP) are described. Three types of nickel(II) complexes have been obtained from ÄMCPP: the four-coordinated, square planar [Ni(ÄMCPP)₂]X₂ (X = J, Br, ClO₄); five-coordinated [Ni(ÄMCPP)₂X]X (X = Cl, NCS), [Ni(ÄMCPP)₂X]BPh₄ (X = Cl, NCS) and the octahedral [Ni(ÄMCPP)₂Cl₂]. Cobalt(II) forms tetrahedral 1.1-[Co(ÄMCPP)X₂] (X = Br, Cl) and 1.2-Co(ÄMCPP)₂X₂(X = Br, Cl, NCS) complexes. All compounds were characterized by electronic reflectance and absorption spectra, conductivity and magnetic measurements.     

Thermal decomposition of octahedral Ni(II) complexes with acetone 1-naphthoylhydrazone

The thermal decompositions of acetone 1-naphthoylhydrazone (L) and its octahedral complexes with Ni(II), with the general formula NiL₂X₂ (X=Cl, Br, NO₃ and NCS), were studied in air and nitrogen atmospheres. It was established that the organic ligand is decomposed in an exothermic processes, which is followed by oxidation of the decomposition fragments by atmospheric oxygen. At temperatures below 640°, all the complexes decompose completely, yielding NiO as the final product, which was confirmed by its X-ray analysis. From the difference between the enthalpy changes for the decompositions of the complexes and of the ligand itself, the nature of the final oxide, and the crystal field splitting parameters obtained from optical measurements, the corresponding stabilization energies were determined.

Zusammenfassung In Luft- und Stickstoffatmosphäre wurde die thermische Zersetzung von Azeton-1-naphthoylhydrazon (L) und seinen oktaedrischen Komplexen mit Ni(II) mit der allgemeinen Formel NiL₂X₂ (mit X=Cl, Br, NO₃ und NCS) untersucht. Es wurde festgestellt, daß der organische Ligand in einem exothemen Prozeß einer Zersetzung und einer anschließenden Oxydation der Zersetzungsprodukte durch Luftsauerstoff unterliegt. Unterhalb 640° zerfällen alle Komplexe vollständig und liefern NiO als Endprodukt, welches mittels Röntgendiffraktionsanalyse identifiziert wurde. Aus dem Unterschied zwischen Enthalpieänderungen für die Zersetzung der Komplexe und des Liganden selbst, aus der Art der erhaltenen Oxide und aus den Parametern der durch optische Messungen bestimmten Kristallfeldaufspaltung wurden die entsprechenden Stabilisierungsenergien bestimmt.

     

Halonickel(I) complexes

Summary The reduction of nickel(II) halides with NaBH₄ in the presence of different ligands, L=PPh₃, AsPh₃, SbPh₃, has been studied. With a molar ratio L/Ni=3, new complexes NiX(SbPh₃)₃, X=Cl, Br, I, were obtained. With a molar ratio L/Ni=2, dimeric species [NiXL₂]₂, X=Cl, Br, I; L=PPh₃, AsPh₃, SbPh₃, were isolated. They are unstable and decompose easily in the solid and rapidly in solution, so that pure samples were only identified for X=Cl, L=PPh₃, AsPh₃, SbPh₃; X=Br, L=PPh₃ and X=I, L=PPh₃. With a molar ratio L/Ni=1, complexes [NiXL]_n (probably polymeric) were obtained. They are very unstable and pure samples could only be isolated when X=Cl, L=PPh₃. Impure substances containing variable amounts of decomposition products were obtained in all the remaining cases. The chemical and structural behaviour of these complexes is discussed.     

Darstellung und Charakterisierung von [Pt(mal)2]2− und von trans-[Pt(mal)2X2]2− (X = Cl,Br, I,SCN)

Preparation and Characterization of [Pt(mal)₂]^2? and trans-[Pt(mal)₂X₂]^2? (X = Cl, Br, I, SCN) By twofold treatment of K₂[PtCl₄] with potassium hydrogen malonate in a queous solution the yellow K₂[Pt(mal)₂] · H₂O is obtained. After extraction with tetrabutylammonium ions into dichloromethane by oxidative addition at ?90°C the Pt^IV complexes [Pt(mal)₂X₂]^2?, X = Cl, Br, I, SCN, are formed. The SCN ligands are coordinated to Pt via S. The IR and Raman spectra are discussed and assigned.     

Zum Einfluß der Ringgröße auf die Struktur von Metallchelaten. IV. Palladium(II)- und Platin(II)-Komplexe pyridylsubstituierter Dialkylsulfide und -amine

The Influence of Ring Size on the Structure of Metal Chelates with Tridentate Ligands. IV. Palladium(II) and Platinum(II) Complexes of Pyridyl Substituted Dialkyl Sulfides and Amines [β-(Pyridyl-2)-ethyl]-[(pyridyl-2)-methyl]-amine(2,3-py₂tri) forms planar palladium(II) complexes [Pd(2,3-py₂tri)X]X (X = Cl, Br) occupying trans-positions as a tridentate ligand. An analogous behaviour is observed with bis[β-(pyridyl-2)-ethyl]-sulfide(3,3-py₂Stri) in the chelate compounds [Me^II(3,3-py₂Stri)X]X (Me^II = Pd, Pt; X = Cl, Br, J, SCN). On the other hand the rigid ligand bis[(pyridyl-2)-methyl]-sulfide(2,2-py₂Stri) is only bidentate in the complexes Me^II(2,2-py₂Stri)X₂ (Me^II = Pd, Pt; X = Cl, Br, J, SCN), one pyridine group does not interact with the central atom. The reasons are the angular relations within the thioether group of 2,2-py₂Stri which allow a tridentate coordination in a facial conformation (octahedral and trigonal-bipyramidal nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes), but not in a meridional one (planar palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes). In Pt(2,2-py₂Stri)(SCN)(NCS) one thiocyanato ligand is linked by sulfur, the other one by nitrogen.     

Density functional theory study on the reactions of X− with CH3SY (X,Y = F,Cl, Br,I)

Gas‐phase anionic reactions X^? + CH₃SY (X, Y = F, Cl, Br, I) have been investigated at the level of B3LYP/6‐311+G (2df,p). Results show that the potential energy surface (PES) of gas‐phase reactions X^? + CH₃SY (X, Y = Cl, Br, I) has a quadruple‐well structure, indicating an addition–elimination (A–E) pathway. The fluorine behaves differently in many respects from the other halogens and the reactions F^? + CH₃SY (Y = F, Cl, Br, I) correspond to deprotonation instead of substitution. The gas‐phase reactions X^? + CH₃SF (X = Cl, Br, I), however, follow an A–E pathway other than the last two out going steps (COM2 and PR) that proceeds via a deprotonation. The polarizable continuum model (PCM) has been used to evaluate the solvent effects on the energetics of the reactions X^? + CH₃SY (X, Y = Cl, Br, I). The PES is predicted to be unimodal in the solvents of high polarity. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2007

Complexes of aminobenzylamines. part II. Complexes ofo-aminobenzylamine with palladium(II) and platinum(II)

Summary The reactions of K₂[MX₄] (M = Pd^II or Pt^II and X = Cl or Br) witho-aminobenzylamine (o-aba) have been studied in neutral aqueous solutions. Two types of complexes were isolated from these studies: [MLX₂] and [ML₂]X₂. Elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, i.r. and visible spectra suggest polymeric structures for [MLX₂] with the ligand,o-aba = L, acting as a bridge, and/or mononuclear structures for [ML₂]X₂.
