Crystal solvates of zinc(II) bis(dipyrrinates) with triethylamine: composition,stability and spectral-luminescent properties

Crystal solvates of 2,2′-, 2,3′- and 3,3′-bis(dipyrrinato)zinc^(II) with triethylamine (TEA) were obtained by slow crystallization. Composition, structural organization, stability, and spectral-luminescent properties of the crystal solvates were studied by FTIR, Powder X-ray Diffraction, thermal, mass spectral, absorption and fluorescence analyses. The thermal dissociation processes of crystal solvates in an argon atmosphere have been investigated. It is shown that zinc^(II) helicates with decamethylsubstituted 2,2′-, 2,3′-, and 3,3′-bis(dipyrrin)s with TEA form stable supramolecular complexes of the composition [Zn₂L₂(TEA)₄] and [Zn₂L₂TEA]. Spectroscopic studies showed that the quantum yield (φ) of [Zn₂L₂(TEA)_n] crystal solvates in cyclohexane is noticeably (3–4.5 times) lower than φ of [Zn₂L₂] complexes. Quantum chemical study indicated the most likely mechanism for the coordination of solvent molecules on the coordinating centers of [Zn₂L₂]. Thermal and energy stability of [Zn₂L₂(TEA)_n] solvates reduced when replacing the 2,2′- on 2,3′-, and 3,3′-isomer. The obtained results are of interest for the development of [Zn₂L₂] fluorescent sensors of the electron donor molecules.     

Molecular Complexes of Phthalocyanine with Organic Solvents

It was established that in crystal solvates and solutions zinc(II)tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanine formed stable molecular complexes with benzene and pyridine. The characteristics of the corresponding molecular complexes were estimated. Molecules of electron-donor and aromatic solvents do not break down the zinc(II)tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanine associates and do not facilitate intraphase polymorphic transition. A comparative analysis was carried out for the coordinative properties of zinc(II)tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanine and its structural analog, zinc(II)tetrabenzoporphyrin, with respect to pyridine in benzene solutions.     

Complexation of Tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphine with Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Co(II) Salts in Organic Solvents

The rate and activation parameters of tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphine (H₂TPTBP) complexation with 3d-metal acetates and acetylacetonates are shown to be determined by the solvent nature. With an increase in the electron-donor properties of a solvent, the reaction rate increases due to protonation of N–H bonds and decreases as MA _m (Solv) _{n – m} salt solvates become more stable. As the result, the rate of a reaction with ZnAc₂ increases in the series: DMF < dmso=">< py=">< proh-1="><>₃CN <>₆H₆. In inert and weakly coordinating solvents, the transition state of a reaction is supposed to be formed according to the mechanism of contraction of the salt coordination sphere. The rate of H₂TPTBP reaction with metal acetates in pyridine changes in the series: Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Zn(II) > Co(II), while the stability of the obtained complexes decreases in the series Cu(II) > Co(II) > Zn(II) > Cd(II). It is shown that the spectral criterion of the complex stability can be used in the series of metal complexes with one ligand, but it is violated if the ligand structure is changed.     

Synthesis, structural characterization and antibacterial activity of 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(benzenesulfonohydrazide) Schiff bases and their copper(II) complexes

2,6-Diacetylpyridine bis(benzenesulfonohydrazide) Schiff bases (L¹, L² and L³) and their Cu(II) complexes of the general formula [CuL·H₂O] were synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The crystal structure of [CuL³·(py)]·py was investigated by single crystal X-ray structure analysis. The Cu(II) cation has near square pyramidal, penta-coordinate geometry. The binegatively charged tetradentate Schiff base is asymmetrically coordinated to the Cu(II) ion via the pyridine N atom, the azomethine N atom, the sulfonyl O atom and the deprotonated hydrazine N atom. There is a pyridine molecule apically coordinated to the Cu(II) ion. All the Schiff bases and their copper(II) complexes were screened by the disc diffusion method against multi-drug resistant (MDR) gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were also determined. These results show that the antibacterial activity of the Schiff bases against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is enhanced when they are chelated with the copper(II) ion.     

Synthesis and characterization of bis(nicotinamide) m-hydroxybenzoate complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)

Mixed-ligand m-hydroxybenzoate complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) with nicotinamide were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectrometry, solid state UV-vis spectrometry, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The thermal behavior of the complexes was studied by simultaneous TG-DTA methods in static air atmosphere. The infrared spectral characteristics of the complexes are discussed and the mass spectra data are recorded. The complexes contain two water molecules, two m-hydroxybenzoato (m-hba), and two nicotinamide (na) ligands per formula unit. In these complexes, the m-hydroxybenzoate and nicotinamide behave as a monodentate ligand through acidic oxygen and nitrogen of the pyridine ring. The decomposition pathways and the stability of the complexes are interpreted in terms of the structural data. The final decomposition products were found to be the respective metal oxides.

Novel coordination compounds: Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) cations with acesulfame/N,N-diethylnicotinamide ligands

Abstract

Five coordination complexes with Mn²⁺ (1), Co²⁺ (2), Ni²⁺ (3), Cu²⁺ (4), and Zn²⁺ (5) containing acesulfame (ace) and N,N-diethylnicotinamide (dena) ligands were synthesized and structural binding properties investigated. Four compounds (1, 2, 4, and 5) were examined with single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The structures containing Mn(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) were iso-structural. Six-coordination of metal cations were completed with two moles dena and four aqua ligands. The dena ligands were coordinated via pyridine nitrogen as neutral-monodentate. Charge stabilities of the complexes are complemented by two moles monoanionic ace ligands, located outside of the coordination unit. In the Cu(II) complex, the coordination is completed by acidic nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen atoms of two ace ligands and pyridine nitrogen of two moles dena ligands. The coordination to Cu(II) for ace ligands was monoanionic-bidentate. All metal cations in the structure are distorted octahedral. Thermal decomposition of complexes begins with removal of the aqua molecules from the structures and is completed by combustion of organic ligands. The final decomposition products of all structures have been identified as corresponding metal oxides. Some biological applications (anti-fungal/anti-bacterial) were studied using 1–5.     

Coordinating Properties of Co(II) and Zn(II) Complexes with Sterically Hindered Porphyrins

Cobalt(II) and zinc(II) complexes with 5,15-di(o-methoxyphenyl)-3,7,13,17-tetramethyl-2,8,12,18-tetra-n-buthylporphyrin and its capped analogues, where the MN₄ reaction site is shielded by bridging groups containing m-phenylene and dimethoxy-substitutedp-phenylene fragments, were synthesized. Equilibrium constants of additional coordination of pyridine and N-methylimidazole by these metalloporphyrins were determined at 298 K. It was found that steric distortion of the porphyrin core destabilizes extra complexes.     

Synthesis and characterization of bis(N,N-diethylnicotinamide) <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-hydroxybenzoate complexes of Co(II), Ni(H), Cu(II), and Zn(II)

Four novel mixed-ligand complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) with m-hydroxybenzoate (m-Hba) and N,N-diethylnicotinamide (Dena) were synthesized and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopic study, and solid state UV-Vis spectrophotometric and magnetic-susceptibility data. The thermal behavior of the complexes was studied by combined TG-DTA methods in static air atmosphere, and the mass spectra were recorded. The Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) complexes, except for the Cu(II) complex, contain two molecules of coordinated water, two m-Hba, and two Dena ligands per formula unit. In these complexes, the m-Hba and Dena behave as monodentate ligands via acidic oxygen and nitrogen of the pyridine ring. In the Cu(II) complex, the m-Hba is coordinated as monoanionic bidentate ligand through acidic oxygen and carbonyl oxygen. Dena is bonded with Cu²⁺ as monodentate ligand by the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring. The decomposition pathways and the stability of the complexes are interpreted in terms of the proposed structural data. The final decomposition products were found to be the respective metal oxides. The article was submitted by the authors in English.     

Novel (N‐heterocyclic carbene)Pd(pyridine)Br2 complexes for carbonylative Sonogashira coupling reactions: Catalytic efficiency and scope for arylalkynes,alkylalkynes and dialkynes

New N,N′‐substituted imidazolium salts and their corresponding dibromidopyridine–palladium(II) complexes were successfully synthesized and characterized. Reactions of palladium bromide with the newly synthesized N,N′‐substituted imidazolium bromides ( 2a and 2b ) in pyridine afforded the corresponding new N‐heterocyclic carbene pyridine palladium(II) complexes ( 3a and 3b ) in high yields. Their single‐crystal X‐ray structures show a distorted square planar geometry with the carbene and pyridine ligands in trans position. Both complexes show a high catalytic activity in carbonylative Sonogashira coupling reactions of aryl iodides and aryl diiodides with arylalkynes, alkylalkynes and dialkynes.

Synthesis,Crystal Structures,and Thermal Properties of New Zinc(II) Thiocyanato Coordination Compounds

Reaction of zinc(II) thiocyanate with pyrazine, pyrimidine, pyridazine, and pyridine leads to the formation of new zinc(II) thiocyanato coordination compounds. In bis(isothiocyanato‐N)‐bis(μ₂‐pyrazine‐N,N) zinc(II) ( 1 ) and bis(isothiocyanato‐N)‐bis(μ₂‐pyrimidine‐N,N) zinc(II) ( 2 ) the zinc atoms are coordinated by four nitrogen atoms of the diazine ligands and two nitrogen atoms of the isothiocyanato anions within slightly distorted octahedra. The zinc atoms are connected by the diazine ligands into layers, which are further linked by weak intermolecular S ··· S interactions in 1 and by weak intermolecular C–H ··· S hydrogen bonding in 2 . In bis(isothiocyanato‐N)‐bis(pyridazine‐N) ( 3 ) discrete complexes are found, in which the zinc atoms are coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of the isothiocyanato ligands and two nitrogen atoms of the pyridazine ligands. The crystal structure of bis(isothiocyanato‐N)‐tetrakis(pyridine‐N) ( 4 ) is known and consists of discrete complexes, in which the zinc atoms are octahedrally coordinated by two thiocyanato anions and four pyridine molecules. Investigations using simultaneous differential thermoanalysis and thermogravimetry, X‐ray powder diffraction and IR spectroscopy prove that on heating, the ligand‐rich compounds 1 , 2 , and 3 decompose without the formation of ligand‐deficient intermediate phases. In contrast, compound 4 looses the pyridine ligands in two different steps, leading to the formation of the literature known ligand‐deficient compound bis(isothiocyanato‐N)‐bis(pyridine‐N) ( 5 ) as an intermediate. The crystal structure of compound 5 consists of tetrahedrally coordinated zinc atoms which are surrounded by two isothiocyanato anions and two pyridine ligands. The structures and the thermal reactivity are discussed and compared with this of related transition metal isothiocyanates with pyrazine, pyrimidine, pyridazine, and pyridine.     

Furopyridines and furopyridine-Ni(II) complexes

Summary The thermal decomposition of the complexes Ni(SCN)₂(fp)₄·2H2O (I), Ni(SCN)₂(mfp)₄ (II) and Ni(SCN)₂(dmfp)₃ (III) (where fp=furo[3,2-c]pyridine, mfp=2-methylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine and dmfp=2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine) have been investigated in dynamic air from room temperature to 1000°C by means of TG, DTG and DTA. The chemical composition of the complexes, solid intermediates and the resultant products of thermolysis have been identified by means of elemental analysis and complexometric titration. The results revealed that NiO was left as residue at the end of the thermal degradation experiments. IR data suggested that fp, mfp and dmfp were coordinated to Ni(II) through the N atom of the respective heterocyclic ring.     

Cyclometallation of 2-(2-thienyl)pyridine and 2-(3-thienyl)pyridine with palladium(II), rhodium(III) and ruthenium(II)

Summary 2-(2-Thienyl)pyridine [H(2-tp)] and 2-(3-thienyl)pyridine [H(3-tp)] react with lithium tetrachloropalladate(II), hexachlorotetrakis(tri-n-butylphosphine) dirhodium(III), and tetrachlorohexacarbonyldiruthenium(II) to give [PdCl(C-N)]₂-(CN=2-tp and 3-tp), [RhCl₂(C-N)PBu₃]₂ (C-N = 2-tp and 3-tp), and [RuCl(2-tp)(CO)₂]₂, respectively. Some bromo analogues are also prepared. These complexes react with pyridine and tri-n-butylphosphine to give adducts in which 2-tp is chelated through pyridine-N and thiophene-3-C and 3-tp through pyridine-N and thiophene-2-C atoms. The structures of these complexes are similar to those of the corresponding complexes of cyclometallated 2-phenylpyridine.     

Synthesis,Spectral and Structural Characterization of the First Bis-2-Pyridylethanol Complexes of Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) Saccharinates: Crystal Structures of Diaquabis(2-Pyridylethanol)Iron(II) and Copper(II) Saccharinates

The first 2-pyridylethanol (pyet) complexes of manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) saccharinates, were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic measurements, UV-Vis, and IR spectroscopic techniques. Crystal and molecular structures of the iron(II) and copper(II) complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The experimental data showed that all the complexes are mononuclear with a general formula [M(H₂O)₂(pyet)₂](sac)₂, where sac is the saccharinate anion. All the metal ions are octahedrally coordinated by two aqua and two pyet ligands. The pyet ligand acts as a bidentate ligand through its amine nitrogen and hydroxyl oxygen atoms forming a six-membered chelate ring, while the sac ions remain outside the coordination sphere. All the complexes are isomorphous with a monoclinic space group P2₁/n and Z = 2.     

Investigation of the oxygen affinity of manganese(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes with some tetradentate Schiff bases

Oxygen absorption–desorption processes for square planar Mn(II), Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes of tetradentate Schiff base ligands in DMF and chloroform solvents were investigated. The tetradentate Schiff base ligands were obtained by condensation reaction of ethylenediamine with salcyldehyde, o-hydroxyacetophenone or acetylacetone in the molar ratio 1:2. The square planar complexes were prepared by the reaction of the Schiff base ligands with Mn(II) acetate, Co(II) nitrate and Ni(II) nitrate in dry ethanol under nitrogen atmosphere. The sorption processes were undertaken in the presence and absence of (pyridine) axial-base in 1:1 M ratio of (pyridine:metal(II) complexes). Complexes in DMF indicate significant oxygen affinity than in chloroform solvent. Cobalt(II) complexes showed significant sorption processes compared to Mn(II) and Ni(II) complexes. The presence of pyridine axial base clearly increases oxygen affinity.     

Oxidative Dehydrogenation in Complexes of Transition Metals (Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II)) with N,N"-Di(2-Hydroxybenzyl)diamines

Potentially tetradentate ligands N,N"-di(2-hydroxybenzyl)ethylenediamine (L¹) and N,N"-di(2-hydroxybenzyl)o-phenylenediamine (L²) and complexes of Cu(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) with L¹and L²were synthesized. The EPR and electronic spectroscopy methods were used to reveal the octahedral structure of the Cu(II) complex with L¹in the solid state. In water–alcohol solutions, the Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes with both ligands have distorted octahedral structures. The Co(II) complexes form dioxygen adduct with L¹. In the presence of oxygen, the ligands in the obtained complex compounds can undergo oxidative dehydrogenation with selective formation of the respective disalicylaldimines. In the case of L², the oxidative dehydrogenation is observed for the complexes of all studied metals in comparatively mild conditions (T= 30°C, methanol and other solvents), while in the case of L¹, it occurs only with the Co(II) complexes in the presence of pyridine.     

Copper(II) complexes of 2-(pyrrolidinomethyl)- and 2-(3-pyrrolinomethyl)pyridine N-oxides

Summary This title pyridine N-oxides have been prepared and their copper(II) complexes isolated as perchlorate, tetrafluoroborate and nitrate salts. The ligands coordinatevia both the pyridine N-oxide oxygen and the amine nitrogen to give bis(ligand) complexes for the perchlorate and tetrafluoroborate salts. The nitrate solids have [CuL(NO₃)₂] stoichiometry with monodentate nitrato-ligands. The spectral properties of these complexes are compared to those of N-alkyl-and N,N-dialkyl2-picolinamine N-oxides as well as other 2-substituted pyridine N-oxides.NATO Fellow on leave from Istanbul Medical Faculty, Istanbul University.     

Synthesis and Spectroscopic Characterization of New Lead(II) Thiosaccharinates. Molecular Structure of Bis(thiosaccharinato)tetrakis(pyridine)dilead(II) and Thiosaccharinato‐bis(1,10‐phenantroline)lead(II) Thiosaccharinate

Four new lead(II) thiosaccharinate complexes: [Pb(tsac)₂H₂O] (1) (tsac: thiosaccharinate anion), [Pb₂(tsac)₄(py)₄] (2) (py: pyridine), [Pb(tsac)(o‐phen)₂](tsac)·CH₃CN (3) (o‐phen: 1,10‐phenantroline), and [Pb(tsac)₂(bipy)] (4) (bipy: 2,2′‐bipyridine) were prepared. The infrared and electronic spectra as well as the thermal analysis of all the compounds were recorded and discussed. The thiosaccharinate anion acts in three different coordination forms, one of then reported for the first time. The crystal structures of complexes 2 and 3 have been determined by single crystal X‐ray diffractometry. In complex 2 , two monomeric moieties are joined together forming a symmetric bis‐μ‐sulphur bridged dimer by interaction of two lead(II) atoms through the exocyclic sulphur atoms of two thiosaccharinate ligands. The seven‐fold coordination sphere of each lead atom is completed by two pyridine nitrogen atoms and by another sulfur and two nitrogen atoms of the thiosaccharinate anions. In complex 3 , the lead(II) atom is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms of two 1,10‐phenantroline molecules and by the sulfur and nitrogen atoms of one thiosaccharinate ion. The second anion has an electrostatic interaction with the nucleus.     

Synthesis and biological evaluation of Cu(II), Zn(II), and Ni(II) 3-(4-nitrophenyl)acrylic acid complexes with diamines as potential urease inhibitors

Five new Cu(II), Zn(II), and Ni(II) 3-(4-nitrophenyl)acrylic acid complexes were synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory activity on jack bean urease. All five complexes were structurally determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. Compared with the positive reference acetohydroxamic acid (IC₅₀?=?13.25?μM), Cu(II) complexes 3 and 4 showed the strongest inhibitory activity against jack bean urease (IC₅₀?=?1.23 and 1.17?μM). Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes also exhibited inhibitory activities (IC₅₀?=?10.09–13.10?μM).     

Synthesis and Characterization of Metal Complexes of a New Unsymmetrical Tridentate NNS Schiff Base Ligand: X‐ray Crystal Structure Determination of Nickel(II) Complex

A new unsymmetrical tridentate NNS Schiff base ligand, 2‐(2‐nitrophenylthio)‐N‐((pyridine‐2‐yl)methylene)benzenamine (L), and its Mn(II ), Ni(II ), Cu(II ), and Zn(II ) complexes were synthesized. These compounds were characterized by different physicochemical and spectroscopic techniques. The molecular structure of [NiL₂ ](ClO₄ )₂ was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. In this complex, two ligands coordinate through azomethine‐N, pyridine‐N, and thioether‐S, forming a mononuclear 6‐coordinate distorted octahedral geometry about a nickel.
