The 2D Cu^II metal‐organic framework [Cu₂(bptc)(H₂O)₄]_n · 4nH₂O ( 1 ) (H₄bptc = biphenyl‐2,2′,4,4′‐tetracarboxylic acid) was hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. In the structure, bptc^4– serves as a twisted Π‐shaped organic building block to connect paddlewheel [Cu₂(COO)₄] dinuclear units and mononuclear units through 2‐/2′‐carboxylate and 4‐/4′‐carboxylate, respectively. According to the magnetic analysis using a dimer‐plus‐monomer model, strong antiferromagnetic coupling is operative within the dinuclear unit (J = –311 cm^–1 based on H = –J S ₁ S ₂), and the compound behaves like a mononuclear molecule at low temperature.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Magnetic Property of New Trispin Ln(III)‐Nitronyl Nitroxide Complexes

Four Ln(III) complexes based on a new nitronyl nitroxide radical have been synthesized and structurally characterized: {Ln(hfac)₃[NITPh(MeO)₂]₂} (Ln = Eu( 1 ), Gd( 2 ), Tb( 3 ), Dy( 4 ); NITPh(MeO)₂ = 2‐(3′,4′‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4,4,5,5‐tetramethylimidazoline‐1‐oxyl‐3‐oxide; hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate). The single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis shows that these complexes have similar mononuclear trispin structures, in which central Ln(III) ion is eight‐coordinated by two O‐atoms from two nitroxide groups and six O‐atoms from three hfac anions. The variable temperature magnetic susceptibility study reveals that there exist ferromagnetic interactions between Gd(III) and the radicals, and antiferromagnetic interactions between two radicals (J_Gd‐Rad = 3.40 cm^?1, J_Rad‐Rad = ?9.99 cm^?1) in complex 2 . Meanwhile, antiferromagnetic interactions are estimated between Eu(III) (or Dy(III)) and radicals in complexes 1 and 4 , and ferromagnetic interaction between Tb(III) and radicals in complex 3 , respectively.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Magnetic Property of Copper(II) Complex with 4′-Cyanobenzyl-1-imidazol

A neutral mononuclear complex [Cu(cbIm)₄(NO₃)₂] (cbIm = 4'-cyanobenzyl-1-imidazol) was synthesized and characterized by x-ray crystallography. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with a = 8.249(2), b = 8.735(2), c = 16.597(2) Å, f = 81.980(10), g = 88.540(10), n = 63.570(10)° and Z = 2. The final refinement of the structure leads to R and Rw of 0.0394 and 0.0991, respectively. The crystal structure of the complex indicates a distorted octahedral environment around the Cu(II) atom, coordinated by four imidazole N atoms of four cbIm and two O atoms of two nitrates. Magnetic measurements show that the complex exhibits Curie behavior.     

Synthesis,Spectroscopic Properties,and Crystal Structure of 2,2′‐Bipyridyldimesitylnickel(II)

The dimesitylnickel(II) complex [(bpy)NiMes₂] (Mes = mesityl = 2,4,6‐trimethylphenyl) was prepared and examined spectroscopically and electrochemically. The crystal and molecular structure was determined from single crystal X‐Ray diffraction experiments (monoclinic, P2₁/n, Z = 4, a = 8.3092(8) Å, b = 18.233(2) Å, c = 15.226(2) Å, β = 98.035(6)°). The nickel atom displays a distorted square planar environment. The axial positions of the square plane are shielded by each one of the methyl groups on the mesityl substituents. The complex shows electrochemical reduction processes that are mainly centered on the bpy ligand as inferred from spectroelectrochemical investigations (EPR and UV/Vis/NIR absorption) of the radical anion or dianion. The observed oxidation is assigned to a Ni^II/Ni^III couple. The title complex exhibits strongly solvatochromic longwavelength electronic absorptions.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structure of a One-Dimensional Chain Copper Bipyridine Complex Bridged Through an Azobispyridine Ligand

The copper complex {[Cu(2,2'-bpy)(azpy)(H₂O)(ClO₄)} _n 1 (2,2'-bpy=2,2'bipyridine, azpy=4,4'-azopyridine), has been synthesized and characterized. X-ray analysis reveals that copper is coordinated by two N atoms of 2,2'-bpy, two N atoms from two bridging azpy ligands, one O atom of coordinated water and O atom from ClO-₄ and has a distorted octahedral coordination environment in complex 1. Copper ions are linked to each other through bridging azpy ligands to form a one-dimensional chain. Stacking the one-dimensional chains results in the formation of rhombic channels with ca. 6Å x 6Å. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies show that there is a weak antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper ions.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Fumaratocopper(II) Complex with Bipyridine

The title complex [Cu₂(C₄H₂O₄)₂(bipy)₂(H₂O)₃] · 3H₂O (bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine) was prepared and its crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction methods. Both Cu(II) atoms of the binuclear complex assume square pyramidal coordination. The fumarate groups display different coordination modes. One fumarate group bridges two Cu(II) ions to form a binuclear complex while another fumarate group terminally coordinates to a Cu(II) atom with one carboxyl group free from coordination. The terminally coordinated fumarate showed unusual disorder, which may be due to an intermolecular H-bonding interaction. Close stacking of bipy rings is observed as verified by the distance of 3.46 Å between parallel ring planes. IR spectra were assigned based on the molecular structure.     

Magnetic Interactions through Imidazolate‐Bridges: Synthesis,Spectroscopy, Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties of μ‐Imidazolato‐Bridged Copper(II) Complexes

The synthesis, characterization and crystal structures of substituted imidazolate bridged binuclear copper(II) complexes, [Cu₂(dien)₂(L)](ClO₄)₃, where dien = diethylenetriamine, L = imidazolate (im^—) ( 1 ), 2‐methylimidazolate (mim^—) ( 2 ) and benzimidazolate (bim^—) ( 3 ), are reported. The copper(II) ions of 1 — 3 posses a square planar coordination environment with dien coordinating as a tridentate ligand and the fourth position being occupied by a nitrogen atom of the bridging μ‐imidazolato group. In all three compounds the tendency to form additional long apical bonds at the copper(II) ions to the oxygen atoms of the perchlorate anions is observed. Temperature depended susceptibility data of polycrystalline samples reveal an antiferromagnetic coupling of the copper(II) atoms in 1 — 3 with J = —63.8, —75.4 and —36.8 cm^—1, respectively. Significant changes for these coupling constants could not be observed for measurements on frozen aqueous solutions. ESR spectra for solids and frozen solutions are consistent with intramolecular antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between the metal ions. From the data reported it can be concluded that the predominate mechanism for transmitting exchange coupling through the imidazolate bridge is due to a σ exchange pathways.     

Crystal Structure and Magnetic Characteristics of a New 3‐Methylisoquinolinium Tetrachloridoferrate(III)

The crystal structure of a new 3‐methylisoquinolinium[3‐Me(IsoQH)] salt, [3‐Me(IsoQH)][FeCl₄], was determined.

Magnetic measurements of a powdered sample were carried out. A negative Weiss constant as well as the intermolecular exchange parameter for [3‐Me(IsoQH)][FeCl₄] indicate the occurrence of antiferromagnetic interactions transmitted in the crystal lattice.

On Verdigris,Part III: Crystal Structure,Magnetic and Spectral Properties of Anhydrous Copper(II) Acetate,a Paddle Wheel Chain

Pure anhydrous Cu(CH₃COO)₂ was obtained both, by thermal dehydration of Cu(CH₃COO)₂ · H₂O and by drying a commercially purchased mixture of Cu(CH₃COO)₂ · H₂O and Cu(CH₃COO)₂ in a nitrogen atmosphere using P₂O₅ as drying agent. The crystal structure was solved ab initio from synchrotron X‐ray powder diffraction (XRPD) data at 150 °C and from laboratory XRPD data at ambient conditions and found to be isotypic to anhydrous chromium(II), molybdenum(II) and rhodium(II) acetate. Cu(CH₃COO)₂ crystallizes in space group P1 (no. 2) with lattice parameters of a = 5.1486(3) Å, b = 7.5856(6) Å, c = 8.2832(6) Å, α = 77.984(4)°, β = 75.911(8)°, γ = 84.256(6)° at ambient conditions. Cu₂(CH₃COO)₄ paddle wheels with short (2.6 Å) Cu–Cu distances form chains in a direction, which is the main motif in the crystal structure. Due to their identical structural main motif Cu(CH₃COO)₂ · H₂O and Cu(CH₃COO)₂ exhibit a similar bluish‐green color, almost identical UV/Vis spectra and comparable magnetic properties. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility also indicates only weak inter‐dimer spin exchange between neighbouring Cu₂(CH₃COO)₄ paddle wheels.

Single‐crystal X‐ray analysis revealed that complex 1 has a dinuclear core, in which adjacent central Mn^III atoms are linked by 4,4′‐bipyridine to form an infinite one‐dimensional (1D) molecular configuration. According to the Mn surrounding bond lengths and bond valence sum (BVS) calculations, we demonstrated that the Mn atom coordinated to the pyridine N atoms is in the +2 oxidation state, while another Mn atom coordinated to the phenolic oxygen atoms is in the +3 oxidation state. Magnetic susceptibility data of the complex 1 indicate that the ferromagnetic interaction dominates in this complex.

In both complexes, Cu^II was coordinated to a plane tetragon, by four oxygen atoms from two DNBA^– ions and two coordinated H₂O molecules for 1 , and by two oxygen atoms and two nitrogen atoms from different DNBA^– ions and DAT ligands for 2 . Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TG) analyses were employed to measure the thermal decomposition processes and non‐isothermal kinetics parameters of the complexes. The thermal decomposition onset temperatures of 1 and 2 are 321 and 177 °C. The apparent activation energies of the first exothermic decomposition peaks of 1 and 2 are 247.2 and 185.2 kJ · mol^–1. Both 1 (35 J, > 360 N) and 2 (12.5 J, > 360 N) are less sensitive than RDX. The catalytic effects on the decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) of 1 and 2 were studied by DSC.

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,DNA‐binding Properties and Antioxidant Activity of a Copper(II) Complex with Naphthalimide Schiff Base

The Schiff N‐allylamine‐4‐(ethylenediamine‐5‐methylsalicylidene)‐1,8‐naphthalimide (H₂L) and its copper(II) complex, [Cu(HL)₂] · 0.5DMF, were synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of the Cu^II complex reveals a slightly distorted square‐planar arrangement provided by two N and O donors from two deprotonated ligands. In addition, the DNA‐binding properties of the ligand and Cu^II complex were investigated by fluorescence spectra, electronic absorption, and viscosity measurements. The experimental studies of the DNA‐binding properties indicated that the ligand and Cu^II complex reacted with DNA via intercalation binding mode, and binding affinity for DNA takes the order: ligand > Cu^II complex. The antioxidant assay in vitro suggested that both exhibited potential intensely antioxidant properties, and the ligand is more effective than its Cu^II complex.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties of a Terephthalato-bridged Binuclear Nickel(II) Complex

A new terephthalato-bridged binuclear nickel(II) complex with a tetraazamacrocyclic compound as the terminal ligand, [Ni 2 (cth) 2 (µ-TPHA)](ClO 4 ) 2 (1) [cth= rac -5,7,7,12,14,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane] has been synthesized and characterized. According to X-ray crystallographic studies on the solvated species 1·2CH 3 OH, each Ni(II) ion lies in a distorted octahedral environment, and the terephthalato ligand bridges two Ni(II) ions in a bis bidentate fashion. Cryomagnetic measurements revealed Curie-Weiss behaviour with è = m 1.4 K. Such behaviour may be due to a very weak intramolecular superexchange interaction through the extended bridge, a weak intermolecular exchange interaction or the local zero-field splitting of Ni(II) ions.

Compounds 1–4 are essentially mononuclear Cu(II) complexes. However, in complex 1 , Cu(II) it was found that intermolecular hydrogen bonding through between H₂O and ox formed 1‐D chain structure. In complex 2 it was found that the hydrogen bonding between H₂O and tpd of the next molecule led to for a binuclear Cu(II) complex. In complex 3 , two nitrogen atoms, one of the pyridyl group of bppz and one of N₃^? ligands, are weakly coordinated to neighbor Cu(II) ion thus leading to formation of a 1‐D chain structure. In complex 4 , one nitrogen atom of terminated N₃^? is weakly coordinated to the neighbor Cu(II) site to form a 1‐D polymeric structure. The magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate that complex 1 and 4 exhibit a weak antiferromagnetic interaction whereas a ferromagnetic coupling has been established for complexes 2 and 3 .

The ¹H NMR spectra of the complexes reveal the presence of two chemically distinct methyl groups in the complexes. X‐ray crystal structures of complexes 1 – 4 show that the platinum metal center in each of the complexes form distorted octahedral structure being surrounded by methyl groups, bipyridine ligand, and iodine atom. Furthermore, the crystal packing study shows that self‐assembly of the complexes are governed by weak hydrogen bonding and other non‐covalent interactions such as π ··· π, halogen ··· π and C–H ··· π interactions. Complex 1 exhibits infinite one‐dimensional zigzag chain structure and other three complexes form infinite ladder type structures.

Thermal decomposition behaviour of the complexes was studied by thermogravimetry.
