Thermal properties of solid nickel(II) coordination compounds

The paper deals with the chemical and physical factors influencing the thermal octahedral square planar changes of nickel(II) complexes in the solid phase. The relationship between these transformations and the tetragonal distortion of the octahedral ligand field is discussed. Depending on the coordination of the ligands, these transformations can be divided into two groups: octahedral monomer square planar monomer, and octahedral polymer square planar monomer changes. Attention is directed only to octahedral and square planat Ni(II) complexes (square planar complexes with chromophores [NiN₄], [NiN₂O₂] and [NiO₄]), which can be isolated in the solid state before and after heating. The possibility of such a configurational change seems to be dependent upon the thermal stabilities of the initial and final complexes, the electronic and steric properties of the ligands, the complexing ability of the central atom, and particularly the equatorial-axial interactions of the ligands via the central atom.

Zusammenfassung Vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit den chemischen und physikalischen Faktoren, die den thermischen Übergang oktaedrisch-rechteckig planar der Festkörperphase von Nickel(II) komplexen beeinflussen. Es werden die Beziehungen zwischen dieser Transformation und der tetragonalen Verzerrung oktaedrischer Ligandenfelder besprochen. Entsprechend der Koordinierung der Liganden können diese Transformationen in zwei Gruppen eingeteilt werden: monomer oktaedrisch-monomer rechteckig planar sowie polymer oktaedrisch-monomer rechteckig planare. Hier werden nur solche oktaedrische und rechteckig planare Ni(II)komplexe (rechteckig planare Komplexe mit (NiN₄)-, (NiN₂O₂)- und (NiO₄)-Chromophoren) betrachtet, die sowohl vor als auch nach dem Erhitzen in fester Form isoliert werden können. Die Möglichkeit solcher Konfigurationsübergange scheint von der thermischen Stabilität der Ausgangs- und Produktekomplexe, von elektronischen und sterischen Eigenschaften der Liganden, von der Komplexbildungsstärke des Zentralatomes und hauptsächlich von den äquatorial-axialen Wechselwirkungen der Liganden gegenüber dem Zentralatom abzuhängen.

Thermal properties of solid nickel(II) coordination compounds

The paper deals with the chemical and physical factors influencing the stoichiometry of thermal decomposition of solid coordination compounds. Nickel(II) coordination compounds were used as examples: the problem of the relationship between the structure of the initial compound (and of its intermediates) and the stoichiometry of thermal decomposition is discussed; experimental conditions are shown to affect this decomposition, and the conceptions of the apparent and real stoichiometries of thermal decomposition are discussed. The results obtained may have a more general meaning.

Résumé L'article considère les facteurs chimiques et physiques qui influencent la stchiométrie des réactions de décomposition thermique des composés de coordination solides. Les composés de coordination du nickel(II) ont été choisis pour illustrer le problème des relations entre la structure du composé initial (et de ses intermédiaires) et la stchiométrie de la réaction de décomposition thermique. On montre que les conditions expérimentales influencent la décomposition et on discute le principe des réactions stchiométriques de décomposition thermique dites «apparentes» et «réelles». Les résultats obtenus sont probablement de portée plus générale.

E.s.r. spectra of mixed ligand manganese(II) dithiocarbamates

Summary E.s.r. spectra of mixed ligand manganese(II) complexes of the type Mn(dtc)₂(B), where dtc = pipyridyl dithiocarbamate (pip-dtc) or morpholyl dithiocarbamate (morph-dtc) and B = 2,2-dipyridyl (dipy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), are described. The results are comparable to those calculated for D=0.19 cm^–1, =0.04, g_iso = 2.00 and for magnetic field directions parallel to principal D-tensor axes.     

N -oxide bridged manganese(II) coordination polymers

A simple method for synthesis of manganese(II) coordination polymers with different benzoate ligands and pyridine N-oxide having general composition [Mn(RC₆H₄CO₂)₂(PyO)] _n is presented (where PyO = pyridine N-oxide and R = H, 1a; R = 4-NO₂, 1b; R = 4-Cl, 1c; R = 4-OH, 1d; R = 2-NO₂, 1e). All these polymers are characterized by X-ray crystallography and other spectroscopic techniques. The coordination polymers have similar structures, but the positions of the manganese atoms differ. For example, 1c is highly symmetric and a mirror plane exists between each manganese site (2/m). In 1d, the manganese centers are related by an inversion center (?1) whereas in 1e the manganese centers are related by C₁ rotation (1). Reaction of manganese(II) acetate tetrahydrate with 4-chlorobenzoic acid and PyO upon crystallization from methanol/pyridine gave crystals of coordination polymer 1c along with aqua-bis-pyridine bis-4-chlorobenzoato manganese(II) (2). The structure of 2 also determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction has a 1-D hydrogen bonded chain structure. Temperature-dependent zero-field cooled and field-cooled magnetization data of 1a–1c measured at 20 Oe and 1000 Oe show field-dependent magnetization spread over a wide temperature range from 5 to 300 K. These coordination polymers show anti-ferromagnetic behavior below 20 K.     

Cadmium(II), manganese(II) and zinc(II) compounds

Three new compounds, [Cd(μ ₃ -Hpdh)(μ₂-Cl)] _n (1), Mn(Hpdh)₂(H₂O)₂ (2) and Zn(Hpdh)₂ (H₂O)₂ (3) (H₂pdh =?pyridine-2,3-dicarbo-2,3-hydrazide), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, TG and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Under hydrothermal conditions, H₂pdh is generated by an in situ acylation of H₂pda (H₂pda =?pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid) with hydrazine hydrate. Complex 1 features a 2D layer structure constructed by a dinuclear Cd(II) building block. In complexes 2 and 3, hydrogen bonding interactions connect mononuclear structures into 3D supramolecular frameworks.     

New Ni(II) and Co(II) coordination compounds construction from the ditopic 1,2,3-triazol-based aromatic heterocyclic polycarboxylic ligand

Mononuclear compound I ([Co(Ptia)₂(H₂O)₄] ? H₂O) and 1D chain compound II ([Ni₄(Cptia)₄(H₂O)₁₂]_∞) have been constructed from the new ditopic 1,2,3-trazol-based aromatic heterocyclic carboxylic ligand, 4-(4-carboxy-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl) benzoic acid) (H₂Cptia), under different pH conditions by using the hydrothermal method. Their structure was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (СIF files CCDC nos. 1409531 (I) and 1409531 (II)), IR spectra, and elemental analysis. Compound I is a mononuclear compound. In II, two sets of parallel arrangement 1D chains orient in different directions. The results of their magnetic measurements display the antiferromagnetic interaction exists among the paramagnetic ions.     

Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) coordination compounds of dichloroguanidinopyrimidines

Summary New coordination compounds of Ni^II and Co^II with dichloropyrimidinoguanidine (L) have been obtained and characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. The complexes have the general formulae: [ML₃](ClO₄)₂, [ML₂(SO₄)], [ML₂(NCS)₂], (M = Ni or Co), [NiL₂(ClO₄)₂] and [CoL₂](ClO₄)₂. The ligands are bonded to the metal ion via one nitrogen atom from the pyrimidine heterocyclic ring and one from the guanidine group.     

A new mixed ligand coordination polymer of Mn(II): structural aspect and cryomagnetic study

A new 1-D polymeric chain complex [Mn(pydc)(1,10-phen)]_n· nH₂O (pydc = pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate, 1,10-phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) has been synthesised and characterised by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectrum, thermal analysis and variable temperature magnetic susceptibility studies. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study reveals that the central Mn(II) ion is in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry, and is coordinated to pydc and 1,10-phen. The complex shows interesting hydrogen bond modes involving the dicarboxylates and lattice water molecules. The presence of weak antiferromagnetic coupling with J = −0.72 cm⁻¹ for the complex has been concluded from the cryomagnetic susceptibility studies.     

Two different anionic manganese(II) coordination polymers constructed through dicyanamide coordination bridges

In order to explore new metal coordination polymers and to search for new types of ferroelectrics among hybrid coordination polymers, two manganese dicyanamide complexes, poly[tetramethylammonium [di‐μ₃‐dicyanamido‐κ⁶N¹:N³:N⁵‐tri‐μ₂‐dicyanamido‐κ⁶N¹:N⁵‐dimanganese(II)]], {[(CH₃)₄N][Mn₂(NCNCN)₅]}_n, (I), and catena‐poly[bis(butyltriphenylphosphonium) [[(dicyanamido‐κN¹)manganese(II)]‐di‐μ₂‐dicyanamido‐κ⁴N¹:N⁵]], {[(C₄H₉)(C₆H₅)₃P]₂[Mn(NCNCN)₄]}_n, (II), were synthesized in aqueous solution. In (I), one Mn^II cation is octahedrally coordinated by six nitrile N atoms from six anionic dicyanamide (dca) ligands, while the second Mn^II cation is coordinated by four nitrile N atoms and two amide N atoms from six anionic dca ligands. Neighbouring Mn^II cations are linked together by μ‐1,5‐ and μ‐1,3,5‐bridging dca anions to form a three‐dimensional polymeric structure. The anionic framework exhibits a solvent‐accessible void of 289.8 ų, amounting to 28.0% of the total unit‐cell volume. Each of the cavities in the network is occupied by only one tetramethylammonium cation. In (II), each Mn^II cation is octahedrally coordinated by six nitrile N atoms from six dca ligands. Neighbouring Mn^II cations are linked together by double dca bridges to form a one‐dimensional polymeric chain, and C—H...N hydrogen‐bonding interactions are involved in the formation of the one‐dimensional layer structure.     

Copper(II) coordination compounds with ferulic acid

The first two molecular structures of the ferulic acid (3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid, C₁₀H₁₀O₄) coordination compounds are presented, namely, [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄(CH₃CN)₂] 1 and [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄(C₆H₆N₂O)₂]·4CH₃CN (C₆H₆N₂O = nicotinamide) 2. Both compounds were synthesised from the starting mixture of Cu₂O and CuCl upon copper oxidation in the acetonitrile solution. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 and 2 reveals the binuclear structure of the ‘paddle–wheel’ type for both complexes. 1 and 2 are unstable outside mother liquid due to loosely bound acetonitrile molecules. The final products of decomposition are [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄] 1a and [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄(C₆H₆N₂O)₂] 2a, which were characterized by several physico-chemical methods. The triplet X-band EPR spectra of 1a and 2a, showing signals B_Z1  15 mT, B₂  460 mT and B_Z2  580 mT, are in agreement with the expected data for the binuclear tetracarboxylate units, found in the structures of the parent complexes 1 and 2. Together with the room temperature magnetic susceptibility data, μ_eff/B.M. 1.40 (1a), 1.48 (2a), the EPR spectra analysis confirm the antiferromagnetic interaction in 1a and 2a. This is suggesting preservation and stability of the paddle–wheel structures in 1a and 2a.     

Thermal decomposition of mixed ligand complexes of manganese(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) containing triethanolamine and oxalate

The kinetics of thermal decomposition of mixed ligand complexes of Mn(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) containing triethanolamine and oxalate have been studied using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The decomposition reaction in which the complexes lose one molecule of triethanolamine was found to be first order and the activation energy and pre-exponential factors were calculated using established techniques. The values of E_a obtained for these reactions using a modified form of the Horowitz and Metzger equation were 27.75, 20.54, 18.33, 25.32 and 23.25 kcal mole^?1, respectively. Infrared spectral data of these complexes and the intermediates gave additional information about the coordinating nature of the ligands in these complexes.     

Two distinct manganese(II) complexes with hexadentate 1,3-propanediaminetetraacetate ligand: The ability of metal(II) complexes with 1,3-pdta ligand to form solid solutions

The ability of Mn(II) ion to form two distinctly different complexes with 1,3-propanediaminetetraacetate (1,3-pdta) ligand has been demonstrated by performing X-ray analyses of their crystalline Mg(II) salts. The two types of Mn(II) complexes have been obtained by different synthetic routes and their crystals constitute, respectively, the solid solution of the composition [Mg(H₂O)₆][Mg_0.5Mn_0.5(1,3-pdta)] · 2H₂O (1) and the ordered crystals of the composition [Mg(H₂O)₆][Mn(1,3-pdta)(H₂O)] · 2H₂O (2). In both, six- 1 and seven-coordinated 2 Mn(II) complexes the 1,3-pdta ligand acts as a hexadentate. As 2 makes the second example of the seven-coordinated 1,3-pdta complex with divalent transition metal ion, the other being the [Mg(H₂O)₆][Cd(1,3-pdta)(H₂O)] · 2H₂O (3) complex, the paper reports the results of X-ray investigations of both of these complexes at 130 K.     

Three new manganese(II) coordination complexes based on tetrazole carboxylate ligands

Reactions of three tetrazole carboxylate ligands, namely 5-(4-pyridyl)tetrazole-2-acetic acid (Hpytza), 1,3,5-tris(tetrazol-5-yl)benzene-N2,N2′,N2″-triacetic acid (H₃tzpha) and 5-aminotetrazole-1-propanoic acid (Hatzpa) with Mn(NO₃)₂·6H₂O in the presence of KOH afforded three new complexes, [Mn(pytza)₂] (1), [Mn₃(tzpha)₂(H₂O)₁₂]·2CH₃OH·10H₂O (2) and [Mn(atzpa)₂(H₂O)₂] (3), respectively. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 displays a three-dimensional network while 2 and 3 show one-dimensional chains. Furthermore, the luminescence properties of these complexes were investigated at room temperature in the solid state.     

Diastereoselective synthesis of coordination compounds: a chiral tripodal ligand based on bipyridine units and its ruthenium(II) and iron(II) complexes

The enantiomerically pure chiral tris-chelating ligand (+)-(7S,10R)-L(L) comprising three 4,5-pinenobipyridine subunits connected through a mesityl spacer has been synthesized. Complexes of L with RuII and FeII have been prepared and characterised. NMR spectroscopy indicates that only one diastereoisomer is formed, and the CD spectra show that the complexes have the [capital Lambda] configuration on the metal centre. The X-ray crystal structure of the iron complex shows that in the octahedral complex, the ligand L coils around the metal and confirms the absolute configuration. The RuII and FeII compounds were also characterised by mass spectrometry, electronic absorption, and, in the case of Ru(II), fluorescence spectroscopy. The photostability of the ruthenium compound was checked by photochemical experiments.     

Gas chromatography of manganese(II) and manganese(III) trifluoroacetylacetonates by the ligand vapour technique

The thermal properties and gas Chromatographie behaviour of manganese(II) and manganese(III) trifluoroacetylacetonates (TFA) were investigated by using the ligand vapour technique. The two chelates, Mn(TFA); and Mn(TFA)₃, can be quantitatively eluted on a mixed-liquid phase (1.9% OV-17 ÷ 0.1% PEG-20M) at column temperatures above 210°C and 130–150°C, respectively; Mn(TFA)₃ is completely converted to Mn(TFA)₂ by thermal dissociation at column temperatures above 180°C and completely eluted as Mn(TFA)₂ above 210°C. The chelates can be determined separately within errors of about 1% after a preliminary extraction.
