Thermal and spectral studies of 5-(phenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin and 5-(2- hydroxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II)

Complexes of 5-(phenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin (L¹) and 5-(2-hydroxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin (HL²) with Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) salts have been synthesised and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, UV-Vis, IR, ESR and TG studies. The magnetic and spectral data suggested octahedral geometry for [L¹M(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂]·xH₂O {M=Ni^ll and Cu^ll} and [L¹CuCl₂(H₂O)]·H₂O (dimeric form for the latter), trigonal bipyramidal geometry for [L²Co(OAc)(H₂O)]·2H₂O, square pyramidal geometry for [L²Ni(OAc)(H₂O)]·H₂O and square planar geometry for [L²CuCl]·2H₂O. TG studies confirmed the chemical formulations of these complexes and showed that their thermal degradation takes place in three to five steps, depending on the type of the ligand and the geometry of the complex. The kinetic parameters (n, E^#, A, ΔH^#, ΔS^# and ΔG^#) of the thermal decomposition stages were computed using the Coats-Redfern and other standard equations and are discussed.

Conclusions The conditions were found for the hydrosilylation of CH₂=CHSi(OC₂H₅)₃ with triorganylsilanes in the presence of H₂PtCl₆ · 6H₂O in isopropanol, which assured a high yield (>90%) of the 1-(triorganylsilyl)-2-(tri-ethoxysilyl)ethanes. These conditions were used to synthesize 27 new 1-(triorganylsilyl)-2-(triethoxysilyl)-ethanes.The addition of (C₂H₅O)₃SiH to (CH₂=CHSi(CH₃)₃ in the presence of the same catalyst gave 1-(trimethyl-silyl)-2-(triethoxysilyl)ethane in 98.6% yield.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1622–1625, July, 1976.

Reactions of 2-(pyridine-3-yl)-1H-4,5-imidazoledicarboxylic acid (H₃PyIDC) with a series of Ln(III) ions affords ten coordination polymers, namely, {[Ln(H₂PyIDC)(HPyIDC)(H₂O)₂]·H₂O}_n [Ln=Nd (1), Sm (2), Eu (3) and Gd (4)], {[Ln(HPyIDC)(H₂O)₃]·(H₂PyIDC)·H₂O}_n [Ln=Gd (5), Tb (6), Dy (7), Ho (8) and Er (9)], and {[Y₂(HPyIDC)₂(H₂O)₅]·(bpy)·(NO₃)₂·3H₂O}_n (10) (bpy=4,4′-bipyridine). They exhibit three types of networks: complexes 1-4 are isomorphous coordination networks containing neutral 2D metal-organic layers, while complexes 5-9 are isomorphous, which consist of cationic metal-organic layers and anionic organic layers, and complex 10 is a 2D network built up from 4-connected HPyIDC²⁻ anion and 4-connected Y(III) ions. In addition, thermogravimetric analyses and solid-state luminescent properties of the selected complexes are investigated. They exhibit intense, characteristic emissions in the visible region at room temperature.

Four new complexes, {[M(NAIP)(H₂O)₄]·2H₂O}_n (M = Co (1), M = Mn (2)), {[Zn(NAIP)]·0.5H₂O}_n (3) and {Cd(NAIP)(H₂O)₂]·1.5H₂O}_n (4) [H₂NAIP = 5-(nicotinamido)-isophthalic acid] have been prepared and structurally characterized. The ligand NAIP²⁻ exhibits different coordination modes and leads to the formation of various architectures. Complexes 1 and 2 show a one-dimensional (1D) zigzag chain, where hydrogen-bonding interactions further link these chains to a three dimensional (3D) supramolecular structure. For complex 3, a 3D coordination network with a four-coordinated Zn(II) and NAIP²⁻ as a SBU was observed. Complex 4 presents a three-connected 2-fold interpenetrated 3D network with a (10, 3)-b net topology. Their luminescent and magnetic properties have been investigated in the solid state.     

Synthesis and reactions of a monosubstituted dithiirane 1-oxide, 3-(9-triptycyl)dithiirane 1-oxide

A 3-monosubstituted dithiirane 1-oxide, 3-(9-triptycyl)dithiirane 1-oxide, was prepared for the first time, by the reaction of (9-triptycyl)diazomethane and S₈O. The dithiirane 1-oxide was obtained as cis- and trans-isomers, and the structure of the trans-isomer was verified by X-ray crystallography. The cis-isomer isomerized gradually to the trans-isomer in solution. The divalent sulfur atom of the cis- and trans-dithiirane 1-oxides were removed on treatment with triphenylphosphine to give the corresponding Z- and E-sulfines, respectively. The reaction of the trans-dithiirane 1-oxide with (Ph₃P)₂Pt(C₂H₄) provided the (sulfenato-thiolato)Pt^II complex, and that with Lawesson's reagent yielded the 1,3,4,2-trithiaphospholane and 1,2,4,5,3-tetrathiaphosphorinane derivatives.     

Preparation, spectroscopic properties of 1,4-di (N,N-diisopropylacetamido)-2,3(1H,4H)-quinoxalinedione (L) lanthanide complexes and the supramolecular structure of [Nd2L2(NO3)6(H2O)2]·H2O

The reaction of lanthanide nitrate with 1,4-di (N,N-diisopropylacetamido)-2,3(1H,4H)-quinoxalinedione (L) yields six novel Ln(III) complexes ([Ln₂L₂(NO₃)₆(H₂O)₂]·H₂O) which are characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), conductivity measurements, IR, electronic and ¹H NMR spectroscopies. A new quinoxalinedione-based ligand is used as antenna ligand to sensitize the emission of lanthanide cations. The lowest triplet state energy level of the ligand in the nitrate complex matches better to the resonance level of Eu(III) and Sm(III) than Tb(III) and Dy(III) ion. The f-f fluorescence is induced in the Eu³⁺ and Sm³⁺ complexes by exciting into the π-π* absorptions of the ligand in the UV. Furthermore, the crystal structures of a novel binuclear complex [Nd₂L₂(NO₃)₆(H₂O)₂]·H₂O has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The binuclear [Nd₂L₂(NO₃)₆(H₂O)₂]·H₂O complex units are linked by the intermolecular hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions to form a two-dimensional (2-D) layer supramolecule.

Synthesis and structural studies of (2E,3E)-3-[(6-{[(1E,2E)-2-(hydroxyimino)-1-methylpropylidene]amino}pyridin-2-yl)imino]butan-2-one oxime, ligand and its mono-, di- and trinuclear copper(II) complexes

A new dioxime ligand, (2E,3E)-3-[(6-{[(1E,2E)-2-(hydroxyimino)-1-methylpropylidene]amino}-pyridin-2-yl)imino]butan-2-one oxime, (H₂Pymdo) (3) has been synthesized in H₂O by reacting 2,3-butenedione monoxime (2) with 2,6-diaminopyridine. Mono-, di- and tri-nuclear copper(II) complexes of the dioxime ligand (H₂Pymdo) and/or 1,10-phenanthroline have been prepared. The dioxime ligand (H₂Pymdo) and its copper(II) complexes were characterized by ¹H-n.m.r., ¹³C-n.m.r. and elemental analyses, magnetic moments, i.r. and mass spectral studies. The mononuclear copper(II) complex of H₂Pymdo was found to have a 1:1 metal:ligand ratio. Elemental analyses, stoichiometric and spectroscopic data of the metal complexes indicated that the metal ions are coordinated to the oxime and imine nitrogen atoms (C=N). In the dinuclear complexes, in which the first Cu(II) ion was complexed with nitrogen atoms of the oxime and imine groups, the second Cu(II) ion is ligated with dianionic oxygen atoms of the oxime groups and are linked to the 1,10-phenanthroline nitrogen atoms. The trinuclear copper(II) complex (6) was formed by coordination of the third Cu(II) ion with dianionic oxygen atoms of each of two molecules of the mononuclear copper(II) complexes. The data support the proposed structure of H₂Pymdo and its Cu(II) complexes.

Complex 1 contains a cis-Co(II)(phen)₂ building block and an HTST as monodentate ligand; complex 2 consists of two TST as bidentate ligands connecting one trans- and two cis-Co(II)(phen)₂ building blocks; complex 3 is formed by replacing the trans-Co(II)(phen)₂ in 2 with a trans-Cu(II)(phen)₂, which is the first reported hetero-trinuclear supramolecular complex containing both the Co(II)(phen)₂ and Cu(II)(phen)₂ as building blocks. The study shows the flexible multifunctional self-assembly capability of the H₃TST ligands presenting in these supramolecular complexes through coordinative, H-bonding and even π-π stacking interactions. The photoluminescent optical properties of these complexes are also investigated and discussed as well as the second-order nonlinear optical properties of 1.     

Synthesis,crystal structures and spectroscopic studies of calcium(II) succinamate(-1) complexes

The reaction of succinamic acid (H₂sucm) with Ca(NO₃)₂·4H₂O yielded compounds [Ca(Hsucm)(NO₃)(H₂O)]_n (1) and [Ca(Hsucm)₂]_n (2). The succinamate(-1) ligand presents two new ligation modes and coordinates through the two carboxylato and the amide O-atoms, thus bridging three Ca^II ions which assemble into zig-zag 1D chains in 1 and 2D networks in 2.

Both compounds have been characterized by IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy, and their thermal decomposition was monitored by TG/DTG and DSC measurements. The structural comparison of 1 and 2 with known lanthanide(III) succinamate(-1) complexes reveals differences in the coordination mode of the ligand and in the coordination number of the metal ions; the biological relevance of these differences is discussed.
