Molecular encapsulation of transition metal complexes in cyclodextrins. Part 2. Synthesis and crystal structures of 2:1 adducts between α-cyclodextrin and metallocenium hexafluorophosphates [η5-C5H5)2M]PF6(M = Fe,Co, Rh)

The title metallocenium salts form crystalline 2:1 host:guest inclusion compounds with-cyclodextrin, [(⁵-C₅H₅)₂M]PF₆ · 2-CD · 8H₂O (1, M = Fe;2, M = Co;3, M = Rh). The X-ray crystal structures of1 and3, and the lattice constants, crystal system and space group of2 have been determined. Crystal data: triclinic, space groupP1 (No. 1),Z = 1;1,a = 13.865 (2) Å,b = 13.839 (2) Å,c = 15.520 (2) Å, = 91.43 (2)°, = 85.81 (2)°, = 120.22 (2)°, andR _F = 0.089 for 4257 observed MoK reflections [I > 3(I)];2,a = 13.810 (2) Å,b = 13.872 (2) Å,c = 15.560 (2) Å, = 93.99 (2)°, = 87.06 (2)°, = 120.04 (2)°;3,a = 13.756 (1) Å,b = 13.863 (1) Å,c = 15.561 (2) Å, =94.39 (1)°, = 86.92 (1)°, = 119.89 (1)°, andR _F = 0.061 for 11142 observed MoK reflections [I > 3(I)]. In the crystals of1 and3, two -cyclodextrin molecules are arranged head-to-head to form a dimer by means of intermolecular hydrogen bonding across the secondary hydroxyl faces of adjacent -CD monomers. The dimers are stacked along the crystallographicc axis to form a channel-type structure. The metallocenium cation is encapsulated within the cavity of the dimer, while the PF ₆ ^– anion is located outside the cavity, being centered between the primary hydroxyl faces of adjacent dimers. Eight water molecules of hydration per asymmetric unit reside in the spaces between the -CD columns. In view of the almost identical crystal data for2 a similar structure can be assumed for the cobaltocenium adduct.

Synthesis and X-ray structures of dinitrato-bis[2-(2′-thienyl)-1-(2′-thienylmethyl)benzimidazole]copper(II) and dichloro-bis-[2-(2′-thienyl)-benzimidazole]copper(II)-ethanol

Summary The reactions of Cu(NO₃)₂ · 3 H₂O with 2- (2-thienyl)-1-(2-thienylmethyl)benzimidazole (L) and of CuCl₂ · 2H₂O with 2-(2-thienyl)benzimidazole (L) have been carried out. The crystal structure of two isolated complexes,(1) and(2), have been determined by single-crystal x-ray diffraction methods. Crystals of(1) are monoclinic, space groupP2₁ /c, witha=9.884(4),b=9.892(4),c=18.732(8) Å, =114.89(2)°,Z=2;R=0.068 for 1909 observed reflections. Crystals of (2) are orthorhombic, space groupPbcn, witha=14.835(1),b=8.193(1),c=20.493(1) Å,Z=4;R=0.086 for 415 observed reflections. In the complex (1) the copper co-ordination is tetragonal (compressed octahedral) and involves a nitrogen atom of the organic ligand [Cu-N 1.970(6) Å] and two oxygen atoms of the nitrate group [Cu-O 2.318(7) and 2.246(9) Å] which appears to coordinate nearly symmetrically to the metal; however it has unusually large thermal motion which suggests a fluxional behaviour. In the complex (2) the co-ordination is square planar and involves an imidazole nitrogen [Cu-N 1.95(3) Å] and a chlorine atom [Cu-Cl 2.27(1) Å]. A long interaction Cu-S=3.37(2) Å completes the co-ordination polyhedron to a very elongated distorted tetragonal bipyramid. In both compounds a thiophene ring is disordered.     

Synthesis and X-Ray Crystal Structure Study of ]2-Methyl-4-(2-methylbenzoyl)-phenoxy] Acetic Acid Hydrazide

Benzophenone analog 3 has been synthesized and characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. The compound crystallizes in a monoclinic space group P2₁/c with cell parameters a = 7.701(8) Å, b = 7.151(5) Å, c= 28.323(3) Å, = 104.639(4)°, Z = 4. The structure exhibits intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the type N–HO, C–HO, and N–HN. The molecules are interlinked through hydrogen bonds forming an infinite chain. This polymeric-like structure may play an important role in biological activity.     

Polymeric membrane sodium-selective electrodes based on calix[4]arene ionophores

Six kinds of tetra alkylester type calix[4]arene derivatives, (R₁=R₂=CH₃1, C₂H₅2, C₃H₇3,n-C₄H₉4,t-C₄H₉5,n-C₁₀H₂₁6), a diethyl-didecyl mixed ester type (R₁=C₂H₅, R₂ =C₁₀H₂₁7), and three kinds of lower rim bridged types (R₁=C₂H₅, R₂–R₂=(CH₂)₁₀8, (CH₂)₁₂9, (CH₂)₂(OCH₂CH₂)₃10) were characterized by electrochemical measurement to elucidate the effect of the length of the alkyl group of alkoxycarbonyl substituents on Na⁺ selectivity. To obtain excellent Na⁺ selective ionophores, introduction of short chain alkyl groups rather than long chain ones, such as a decyl group, and maintenance of sufficient solubility of the calix[4]arene derivatives in the membrane solvent are required concurrently. Among the calix[4]arenes tested, 25,26,27,28-tetrakis[(ethoxycarbonyl)methoxy]-p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene2, and the diethyl-didecyl mixed ester type derivative7 are the best ionophores for a Na⁺ selective electrode. On the other hand, sodium selectivity of the bridged type derivative9 is comparable or even superior to that of the known bis(12-crown-4).This paper is dedicated to the commemorative issue on the 50th anniversary of calixarenes.

The title calixarenes all exist in the solid state as bilayers of anionic calixarenes in the cone configuration. These layers alternate with inorganic regions which contain the cations and the water molecules. The overall structures bear a close resemblance to those found for clay minerals. The sodium salt crystallizes in the triclinic space groupP witha = 10.998(6),b = 13.582(5),c = 14.472(5) Å, = 74.01(3), = 89.09(4), = 86.50(4)°, andZ = 2 forD _calc = 1.72 g cm^–3. Refinement based on 4727 observed reflections led to a conventionalR = 0.050. The potassium salt crystallizes in the triclinic space groupP witha = 11.815(9),b = 13.636(6),c = 14.040(9) Å, = 100.24(5), = 111.86(9), = 95,14(9)°, andZ = 2 forD _calc = 1.77 g cm^–3. Refinement based on 2977 observed reflections led toR = 0.15. The rubidium and cesium salts are isostructural and crystallize in the monoclinic space groupP2₁/n with parameters for Rb[Cs]a = 11.603(5) [11.704(3)],b = 28.607(8) [29.747(9)],c = 12.512(5) [12.604(4)] Å, = 91.70(4) [91.63(2)°], andZ = 4 forD _calc = 2.01 [2.24] g cm^–3. Refinement based on 1750 [4257] observed reflections led toR = 0.108 [0.075]. Disorder of the cations was observed for the rubidium and cesium salts.

Copper(I) Complexes with N-Allylquinolinium Bromide [C9H7N(C3H5)]CuBr2 and [C9H7N(C3H5)]Cu2Br3: Synthesis and Crystal Structure

Crystals of [₉₇N(₃₅)]uBr₂ (IV) and [₉₇N(₃₅)][u₂Br₃] (V) were prepared by ac electrochemical synthesis from uBr₂, N-allylquinolinium bromide, on copper electrodes in the ethanol–benzene medium. X-ray diffraction study has shown that crystals IV and V are monoclinic: space group A2₁/a, a = 13.776(3) Å, b = 14.304(3) Å, c = 13.147(2) Å, = 107.90(1) Å, V = 2465(2) ų, Z = 8 for IV and space group P2₁/n, a = 13.881(2) Å, b = 15.446(2) Å, c = 7.111(1) Å, = 104.64(1)°, V = 1475.0(8) ų, Z = 4 for V. Structures IV and V are built of the N-allylquinolinium cations and different anions i.e., (CuBr₂) ^n- _n forming infinite chains in IV and peculiar {[Cu^I ₄Br₆]^2–} _n arranged in polymeric chains in V. In the latter case, two independent metal atoms have trigonal–pyramidal and trigonal–planar environments. In the structures of both compounds, the C=C bond of the allyl group is not involved in coordination with the Cu(I) atom.     

Mechanism of the thermal decomposition of 3CaO·Al2O3·6D2O

The mechanism of the step I and step II of thermal decomposition of 3CaO · Al₂O₃ · 6D₂O was studied. The presence of Ca(OD)₂ was proved in the products of the first step of decomposition. In the calorimeter cell of the Dupont 990 thermoanalyser the enthalpy changesH _r,I=59.2kJ/mole D₂O for step I (210–410°) andDH _rII,1=69.0 kJ/mole D₂O for the first fast part of the step II (stage 1 of the step I, encompassing the temperature interval 410–560°) were measured. This indicates that the dissociation of Ca(OD)₂ is not the only transition taking place in the first fast part (stage 1) of the step II.

Reaction of trimethylaluminum with calixarenes. I. Synthesis and structure of [Calix[8]arene methyl ether] [AlMe3]6·2 toluene and of [p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene methyl ether] [AlMe3]6·4 benzene

Reaction of the methyl ether of calix[8]arene with AlMe₃ yields [calix[8]arene methyl ether] [AlMe₃]₆·2 toluene,1, while that ofp-tert-butylcalix[8]arene gives [p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene methyl ether] [AlMe₃]₆·4 benzene,2. Both compounds1 and2 fail to react with alkali metal salts, MX. In1, the absence of a butylpara-substituent affords greater flexibility than is the case for thetert-butyl compound2. Thus, all six of the AlMe₃ groups are located on the outside of the macrocyclic ring (in projection) in1, but two AlMe₃ units are found on the inside in2. Colorless, air-sensitive crystals of1 belong to the triclinic space group witha=13.690(8),b=14.317(4),c=14.738(6) Å, =76.11(3), =62.36(4), =82.41(4)^o, andD _c =1.06 g cm^–3 forZ=1. Refinement led toR=0.101 for 1154 observed reflections.2 crystallizes in with =12.400(6),b=16.229(8),c=19.251(5) Å, =96.17(3), =107.25(3), =101.54(3)^o, andD _c =1.01 g cm^–3 forZ=1. Refinement of2 gaveR=0.128 for 4351 observed reflections. The macrocyclic array in both1 and2 lies about a crystallographic center of inversion.

Thermogravimetric study of dehydration of Ca(NO3)2 · CO(NH2)2 · 3 H2O under quasi-isothermal-quasi-isobaric conditions

Conventional thermoanalytical curves provide little information on the thermal decomposition of Ca(NO₃)₂ · CO(NH₂)₂ · 3 H₂O. In contrast from quasi-isothermal-quasi-isobaric thermogravimetric curves the mechanism can easily be interpreted. After the complex melts at 60°C, the solution formed is weight constant up to 135°C in the labyrinth crucible. The solution begins to boil at 135°C and gradually loses water, its boiling point increasing. The solution becomes saturated at 200°C. Thereafter, Ca(NO₃)₂ · CO(NH₂)₂ separates out while the boiling point does not change. After the departure of the water, the CO(NH₂)₂ immediately decomposes and Ca(NO₃)₂ remains.In an open crucible the above transformation is complicated by decomposition of typeAB _(s)=A _(s)+B _(g) solution evaporation drying of solid residue, surface crust formation, etc. In conventional thermoanalysis the latter processes accompany the above processes (melting-solution formation-loss of water during boiling) which hampers interpretation of the conventional curve.

Zusammenfassung Herkömmliche thermoanalytische Kurven liefern wenig Informationen über die thermische Zersetzung von Ca(NO₃)₂ · CO(NH₂)₂ · 3 H₂O. Quasi-isotherme/quasi-isobare thermogravimetrische Kurven dagegen ermöglichen leicht eine Interpretation des Mechanismus. Nach dem Schmelzen des Komplexes bei 60°C bleibt das Gewicht der Lösung im Labyrinthtiegel bis 135°C konstant. Die Lösung beginnt bei 135°C zu sieden und verliert zunehmend an Wasser, wobei der Siedepunkt ansteigt. Die Lösung erreicht den Sättigungspunkt bei 200°C. Danach scheidet sich Ca(NO₃)₂ · CO(NH₂)₂ ohne weitere Veränderung des Siedepunktes ab. Nach Entfernung des Wassers zersetzt sich das CO(NH₂)₂ sofort und Ca(NO₃)₂ bleibt zurück.In einem offenen Tiegel wird die obige Umwandlung durch Zersetzung des TypesAB _(s)= =A _(s)+B_(g), durch Verdampfung der Lösung, durch Trocknung des festen Rückstandes, durch Oberflächenverkrustung usw. kompliziert. Diese Prozesse begleiten bei der herkömmlichen Thermoanalyse die oben erwähnten Vorgänge (Schmelzen-Lösungsbildung-Wasserverlust durch Sieden), wodurch die Interpretation der herkömmlichen Kurven erschwert wird.

Hydrogen positions could be determined from differenceFourier syntheses. Strong weakening of some intense low order reflections by extinction was observed, their anisotropy depends on the crystal and on temperature.

     

The cis-effect in trans-[PtCl2XY] compounds

The cis-influence observed in chlorine NQR data of X, Y affecting the Pt-Cl bonds in compounds of type trans-[PtCl₂XY] is interpreted. -bonding differences in Pt-Cl bonds are suggested to account for the trends in NQR frequencies. Pt-Cl -bonding is negligibly small for both d (Pt)–p (Cl) and p –p (Cl) interactions.

Inclusion complexes of the natural product gossypol. Crystal structure of the 2:1 complex of gossypol withm-Xylene

The crystal structure of a 2: 1 inclusion complex of gossypol withm-xylene has been determined by X-ray structure analysis. The crystals of C₃₀H₃₀O₈·0.5C₈ H₁₀ are triclinic, space groupPl^–,a = 8.478(1),b = 14.087(2),c = 14.411(2) Å, = 115,39(1), = 75.11(1), = 86.80(1)°,V = 1475.2(4) ų,Z = 2,D _x = 1.29 g cm^–3,T = 295 K, (CuK ) = 7.01 cm^–1. The structure has been solved by direct methods and refined to the finalR value of 0.079 for 3910 observed reflections. The gossypol molecules are linked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds and form bimolecular layers parallel to the ab plane. Disorderedm-xylene molecules occupy cavities between these layers. All polar groups of the gossypol molecule are packed in the interior of the bilayer while non-polar groups are directed outwards. An analysis of the crystal packing of other inclusion complexes of gossypol shows that such bilayers are formed in four complexes and three of those structures are generically related to each other.Deceased.
