Crystal Structure, Photoluminescent, and Theoretical Studies of 3-Acetyl-8-methoxy-coumarin

The structure of 3-acetyl-8-methoxy-coumarin (AMC) was verified by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group C2/c with a=15.073(3), b=13.068(3), c=11.549(2), β=119.92(3)o, V=1971.7(7)3 , Z=8, F(000)=912, D c=1.470 Mg/m3 , Mr=218.20, μ=0.111 mm-1 , the final R=0.0340 and wR=0.0968 for 1446 observed reflections with I > 2σ(I). The UV-vis absorption and fluorescence of AMC were discussed. The compound exhibits strong blue emission under ultraviolet light excitation. The molecular structure of AMC was optimized using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level, showing that the optimized geometer parameters are in good agreement with the experiment data. In addition, the HOMO and LUMO levels of AMC were deduced.     

Alternativ-Liganden. XXVI [1]. M(CO)4L-Komplexe (M  Cr,Mo, W) der Chelatliganden Me2ESiMe2(CH2)2E′Me2 (Me  CH3; E  P,As; E′  N,P, As)

Alternative Ligands. XXVI. M(CO)₄ L-Complexes (M ? Cr, Mo, W) of the Chelating Ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂ (Me ? CH₃; E ? P, As; E′ ? N, P, As) The reaction of M(CO)₄NBD (NBD = norbornadiene; M ? Cr, Mo, W) with the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂ yields the chelate complexes (CO)₄M[Me₂ESiMe₂]) for E,E′ ? P, As, but not for E and /or E′ ? N. The NSi group is not suited for coordination because of strong (p-d)π-interaction. In the case of the ligands with E ? P or As and E′ ? N chelate complexes can be detected in the reaction mixture, but isolable products are complexes with two ligands coordinated via the E donor group. The new compounds are characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, NMR, MS) investigations. The spectroscopic data are also used to deduce the coordinating properties of the ligands. X-ray diffraction studies of the molybdenum complexes (CO)₄Mo[Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂AsMe ₂] (E ? P, As) in accord with the observed coordination effects show only small differences between SiE and CE donor functions. Attempts to use the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂AsMe₂ (E ? P, As) for the preparation of Fe(CO)₃L complexes result in the fission of the SiE bonds and the formation of the binuclear systems Fe₂(CO)₆(EMe₂)₂ (E ? P, As) together with the disilane derivative [Me₂Si(CH₂)₂AsMe₂]₂.     

Unusual Nitrile–Nitrile and Nitrile–Alkyne Coupling of FcCN and FcCCCN

The reactions of the Group 4 metallocene alkyne complexes, [Cp*₂M(η²‐Me₃SiC₂SiMe₃)] ( 1 a : M=Ti, 1 b : M=Zr, Cp*=η⁵‐pentamethylcyclopentadienyl), with the ferrocenyl nitriles, Fc?C?N and Fc?C?C?C?N (Fc=Fe(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(η⁵‐C₅H₄)), is described. In case of Fc?C?N an unusual nitrile–nitrile C?C homocoupling was observed and 1‐metalla‐2,5‐diaza‐cyclopenta‐2,4‐dienes ( 3 a , b ) were obtained. As the first step of the reaction with 1 b , the nitrile was coordinated to give [Cp*₂Zr(η²‐Me₃SiC₂SiMe₃)(N?C‐Fc)] ( 2 b ). The reactions with the 3‐ferrocenyl‐2‐propyne‐nitrile Fc?C?C?C?N lead to an alkyne–nitrile C?C coupling of two substrates and the formation of 1‐metalla‐2‐aza‐cyclopenta‐2,4‐dienes ( 4 a , b ). For M=Zr, the compound is stabilized by dimerization as evidenced by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis. The electrochemical behavior of 3 a , b and 4 a , b was investigated, showing decomposition after oxidation, leading to different redox‐active products.

There is a statistic occupation of the M-positions by Nb⁵⁺ and Fe³⁺ or Nb⁵⁺ and Ni²⁺, respectively. An other compound Ba₃Fe₂Ta₆O₂₁ is partially ordered in respect to Ta⁵⁺ and Fe³⁺. Calculations of the Coulomb-part of lattice energy are discussed.

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,Theoretical Studies and Sensitive Response toward Fe~(3+) of a Novel Tripyrazole Derivative Ligand

A novel pyrazole derivative ligand, BTA(BTA = bis-(4-ethoxy-phenyl)-[4-(tripyrazol-1-yl-methyl)-phenyl]-amine), was synthesized and fully characterized by 1H-NMR, MALDI-TOF-MS spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1, with a = 11.827(1), b = 16.000(2), c = 16.527(2), α = 108.510(1), β = 91.116(5), γ = 101.734(1)°, V = 2894.5(6) 3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.262 g/m3, F(000) = 1162, Μr = 545.63, μ = 0.083 mm-1, the final R = 0.0728 and w R = 0.2213 for 7541 observed reflections with I 2(I). The structural analysis revealed that three pyrazole units are attached to the same carbon atom connected with bis-(4-ethoxy-phenyl)-phenyl-amine group. UV-vis spectral features of the ligand in various solutions were explained by time dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT). It was also found that the ligand(BTA) exhibits an exclusively selective and sensitive response toward Fe3+ using UV-vis spectroscopic method.
