Synthesis and spectral properties of 3,3′-bis(dipyrrolylmethene)

Bis(2,4,7,8,9-pentamethyldipyrrolylmethene-3-yl)(4′-methoxyphenyl)methane dihydrobromide was synthesized and its spectral properties were studied. It was found that the basicity of the ligand 3,3′-bis-(dipyrrolylmethene) decreases upon insertion of the methoxyphenyl group in the 3,3′-spacer.     

Synthesis and spectral analysis of alkyl-substituted 3,3′-bis(dipyrrolylmethenes)

Four new alkyl-substituted 3,3′-bis(dipyrrolylmethene) dihydrobromides containing from 4 to 10 alkyl substituents were synthesized. In a highly alkylated ligand of these substances one of the hydrogen atoms of the 3,3′-methylene spacer was substituted with a phenyl group. The compounds obtained were studied by IR, ¹H NMR, electron absorption, and fluorescent spectroscopy. The increased alkylation degree of pyrroles and the introduction of an aryl substituent in the 3,3′-spacer causes a significant high-frequency shift of the N-H stretching vibrations in the IR spectra, an upfield shift of the NH-proton signals in 1H NMR spectra, a decrease in the auxochromic effects of protons on the aromatic system of chromophore in the composition of salts. The red shift of maximum of the strong band in electron absorption spectra and the emission spectra of compounds in DMF, DMSO, C₅H₅N, C₆H₆, and CHCl₃ was established. The salts obtained are stable in benzene and chloroform, while in electron-donor solvents the irreversible processes of solvolytic dissociation of salts to free organic base and HBr take place.

Synthesis,stability in solutions,and spectral and thermal properties of alkyl-substituted 3,3′-bis(dipyrromethene) hydrobromides

3,3′-Bis(dipyrromethene) dihydrobromides (H₂L · 2HBr) with various types of alkylation have been synthesized. On the basis of IR, ¹H NMR, and electronic absorption spectra, spectrophotometric titration, and thermogravimetry, conclusions have been drawn about the influence of structural factors on the optical and thermal properties and salt stability in solutions. An increase in the degree of alkylation causes a significant high-frequency shift of the N-H stretching vibration band in the IR spectra, an upfield shift of the ¹H NMR signals of NH protons, a decrease in the auxochromic effects of protons on the aromatic system of the chromophore, and an increase in the salt stability in solutions in the presence of nucleophilic reagents and in the thermal stability in air and argon.     

The Syntheses of 4,4′-(1,n-Dioxaalkane)-bisbenzaldehydes and 4,4′-(1,n-Dioxaalkane)-bis(α-methoxy Phenylacetic Acids)

The syntheses of 4,4′-(1,n-dioxaalkane)-bis(α-methoxyphenylacetic acids) were conducted using a base-catalyzed reaction. The reactants were potassium hydroxide (or lithium hydroxide/lithium chloride), bromoform, methanol and 4,4′-(1,n-dioxaalkane)-bisbenzaldehydes. The aldehyde starting materials were prepared using the Williamson ether synthesis, by condensing p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 1,n-dibromoalkanes with lithium hydride in ethanol. The effect of varying the hydrocarbon length in the dioxaalkane bridge unit is a significant consideration (the number of CH₂ units in the bridge varying from two to eight) in their acid salt formation.

Determination of manganese(VII) as 3,3′-Dianisole-4,4′-bis(3,5-diphenyltetrazolium chloride) complex and its application

A simple, rapid, selective and sensitive spectrophotometric method is described for the determination of trace amounts of manganese using Blue tetrazolium chloride as a chromogenic reagent. The method is based on the formation of ion-associate complex between manganese(VII) and the cation of ditetrazolium salt, having an absorption maximum at 255 nm. Beer’s law is obeyed in the range of 0.1–1.6 μg mL^?1. The molar absorptivity and Sandell’s sensitivity were found to be 4.97 × 10⁴ L mol^?1 cm^?1 and 1.11 × 10^?3 μg cm^?2, respectively. Limit of deterction is 6.86 ng mL^?1 Mn(VII) and limit of quantitation is 22.8 ng mL^?1 Mn(VII). Optimum reaction conditions were evaluated. The effect of interfering ions on the determination is described. The extraction, distribution and association constants, and the recovery factor have been calculated.

Comparative analysis of physicochemical properties of dinuclear zinc(II) helicates with 2,2′-, 2,3′-, and 3,3′-bis(dipyrromethenes)

The effect of the attachment position of a methylene spacer in 2,2′-, 2,3′-, and 3,3′-bis(dipyrromethene) N₄-ligands (H₂L) on physicochemical properties of their dinuclear homoleptic helicates [Zn₂L₂], such as specific features of their molecular structure, luminescence spectral characteristics, lability in acid solutions, and thermal stability in an argon atmosphere, has been examined. It has been shown that the substitution of the biladiene-type helicand by its 2,3- and especially 3,3′-analogues leads to a considerable enhancement of the chromophoric properties, an increase (up to 30-fold) of the fluorescence quantum yield, and an increase in the stability of corresponding dinuclear helicates [Zn₂L₂].

Synthesis and structure of 1,1′-bis(pentafluorophenyl)tetrahydrodigermane

Dehydrogenation of pentafluorophenylgermane in the presence of catalytic amounts of a Wilkinson complex, certain Rh^I ortho-benzosemiquinolate complexes, or (Ph₃P)₄Pt leads to tetrahydrodigermane, C₆F₅H₂GeGeH₂C₆F₅. X-ray analysis has confirmed thetrans-arrangement of the C₆F₅-cycles at the Ge atoms. The Ge-Ge bond length is 2.394(1) Å. The doublet pattern of the band due to the Ge-H bonds (v 2090 and 2104 cm^–1) in the IR spectrum is probably associated with nonequivalence of the hydrogen atoms in the molecule.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Crystallographic and computational study of the structure of copper(II) 2,2′-bis(2-oxidobenzylideneamino)-4,4′-dimethyl-1,1′-biphenyl

The reaction of M(OAc)₂ with 2,2′-bis(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)-4,4′-dimethyl-1,1′-biphenyl (H₂L1) allows the synthesis of 2,2′-bis(2-oxidobenzylideneamino)-4,4′-dimethyl-1,1′-biphenyl complexes of Cu(II) (CuL1), Co(II) (CoL1) and Ni(II) (NiL1) that were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy and for CuL1 also by X-ray crystallography verifying a tetradentate binding mode of L1 via an (ONNO) motif of the two phenolic oxygen atoms and two azomethine nitrogen atoms. Recrystallization from a solvent mixture of dichloromethane and methanol promotes the formation of methanol adducts. Different binding modes of the methanol–complex were investigated using density functional theory calculations and binding energies, and thermodynamic data of the interaction are reported. The results show that the favored interaction occurs when the methanol molecule acts as a Lewis acid weakly binding via an O–H···O hydrogen bridge to a phenoxide moiety leading to an elongation of the respective M–O bond.

     

3,3′-bis(dipyrrolylmethenes) as new chelating ligands: Synthesis and spectral properties

Hydrobromides of three new alkyl-substituted tetrapyrrole ligands with an open chain, in which the dipyrrolylmethene fragments are linked by a CH₂-spacer at the 3,3′-pyrrole carbon atoms, were synthesized and studied by IR, ¹H NMR, and electronic absorption spectroscopy. As compared to the 2,2′ isomers (alkyl derivatives of biladiene-a,c) and monomers (2,2′-, 2,3′-, and 3,3′-dipyrrolylmethenes, the effect of structural factors is manifested in a considerable (up to 19–31 nm) bathochromic shift of the strong band in the electronic spectrum, an increase in the N-H stretching vibration frequency in the IR spectra (by more than 30 cm^?1), and a decrease in the stability of 3,3′-bis(dipyrrolylmethene) salts. The solvent effect is manifested in small changes in the quantitative characteristics of the electronic absorption spectra of 3,3′-tetrapyrrole hydrobromides in C₆H₆, CCl₄, CH₂Cl₂, CHCl₃, and alcohols. In DMF, DMSO, and C₅H₅N, the salts undergo solvolytic dissociation to the free ligands and HBr, which accelerates in dilute solutions (<10^?4 M) and with an increase in the electron-donor power of the solvent. The auxochromic effects of protons in the electronic absorption spectra of the salts, compared to ligands, were estimated quantitatively.
