Di­methyl (1R,8R)-1,11,11-tri­methyl-2,3-di­aza­tri­cyclo­[6.2.1.02,6]­undeca-3,5-diene-4,5-di­carboxyl­ate,a chiral mol­ecule with an approximate centrosymmetric crystal structure

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₆H₂₂N₂O₄, has two independent chiral mol­ecules related by a pseudo-inversion centre. 14 of the 22 non-H atoms have a centrosymmetric counterpart within a tolerance of 0.17 Å. A search of the Cambridge Structural Database [Spring 2000; Allen & Kennard (1993). Chem. Des. Autom. News, 8 , 1, 31–37] shows at least 10% of the crystal structures reported in the literature with space group P2₁ and Z = 4 to be chiral compounds with a pseudo-P2₁/c packing.     

Theoretical investigation of inhibition of the corrosion of A106 steel in NaCl solution by di-n-butyl bis(thiophene-2-carboxylato-O,O′)tin(IV)

This work reports results from potentiodynamic polarisation and impedance investigation, with a rotating disc electrode, of inhibition of corrosion of A106 steel in aerated, unstirred 3.0 % NaCl solutions using di-n-butyl bis(thiophene-2-carboxylato-O,O′)tin(IV) as inhibitor. These studies showed that it is a mixed-type inhibitor. Inhibition efficiency increased with increasing di-n-butyl bis(thiophene-2-carboxylato-O,O′)tin(IV) concentration and decreases with increasing solution temperature. Maximum efficiency of inhibition of the inhibitor of approximately 78 % is observed at a concentration at 10^?2 M. The inhibition process was attributed to formation of an adsorbed film on the metal surface that protects the metal against corrosive agents. The adsorption isotherm confirms the applicability of Langmuir equation to describe the adsorption process. Thermodynamic functions for the adsorption process were determined. The efficiency of corrosion inhibitors and global chemical reactivity depend on such properties as energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (E _HOMO), energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (E _LUMO), energy gap (ΔE), which were calculated. All calculation was been performed by density functional theory (DFT) using the Gaussian03W suite of software. Calculated results were usually in agreement with the experimental data.     

Synthesis,open-framework structure and thermal behaviour of ammonium tin oxalate,Sn2(NH4)2(C2O4)3·3H2O

A new mixed ammonium tin oxalate trihydrate, Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃·3H₂O, has been prepared from evaporation of a solution of tin and ammonium oxalates. Its crystal structure has been solved from single-crystal diffraction data. The symmetry is orthorhombic, space group Pnma (No. 62), cell dimensions a=15.1821(5) Å, b=11.7506(2) Å, c=10.8342(3) Å, and Z=4. The structure consists of macroanionic layers built from [Sn(C₂O₄)₃]^2– groups. The SnO₆ polyhedron can be described as a pseudo pentagonal bipyramid, with the lone pair of electrons presumably occupying one apex. The resulting framework displays holes in which the water molecules and ammonium groups are located. The thermal behaviour of the mixed ammonium tin oxalate has been investigated with temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffraction and conventional thermal analysis. The degradation process has been completely explained, as well as that of oxammite, a phase always obtained in the preparations. The thermal decomposition of oxammite leads to (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ and a new acid salt, NH₄HC₂O₄. The mixed ammonium tin oxalate decomposes successively into the amorphous compounds, Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃·H₂O and Sn₂(NH₄)₂(C₂O₄)₃, SnC₂O₄ and, finally, cassiterite SnO₂.

An X-ray crystallographic study is conducted of single crystals with the composition [Ba₂(Aet^?)₂·10(H₂O)]²⁺·2(Aet^?)·4H₂O, where Aet^? = (C₁₀H₁₁N₄O₂S₂)^? is the ethazole (2-(para-aminobenzenesulfamido)-5-ethyl-1,3,4-tiadiazole) anion.

Nitrogen-donor base adducts of bis(O,O′-di-isoamyldithiophosphato)nickel(II)

A series of Ni^II complexes with the O,O-di-isoamylester of dithiophosphoric acid and nitrogen-donor ligands of composition [Ni(i-Am₂dtp)₂(L)]; [dtp = O₂PS₂ ^–; L = 2,2-bipyridine (bpy); 1,10-phenanthroline (phen); 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (nphen); 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (baphen); 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (neo), 2-aminomethylpyridine (amp), 2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine (aep), 2,2-dipiridylamine (dpa), 1,2-diaminopropane (1,2-dap) or trans 1,2-diaminocyclohexane (dch)] have been prepared. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses (C,H,N,S), electronic and i.r. spectroscopy, magnetic and conductivity measurements and by cyclic voltammetry. The results show that all complexes behave as non-electrolytes in acetone. Electronic spectra and magnetic moments suggest a distorted cis-octahedral geometry around the Ni^II atom [_eff/_B <3.10, 3.40 >], except for [Ni(i-Am₂dtp)₂(aep)], where the measured temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility proved the tetrahedrally coordinated nickel [4.06 _eff/_B (298 K) – 3.20 _eff/_B (80 K)]. In the [Ni(i-Am₂dtp)₂(neo)] complex, the nickel atom is penta-coordinated. The X-ray crystal and molecular structure of [Ni(i-Am₂dtp)₂(1,2-dap)] has been determined.

The mean Cu—N bond length is 2.007 (6) Å, longer than the Cu—O_mal bonds [1.950 (5) Å]. The apical position is occupied by a relatively strongly coordinated water mol­ecule [Cu—O_water 2.288 (5) Å]. The crystal structure is characterized by the layer motif of a hydrogen-bonded network.     

Synthesis, properties, and crystal structure of the tin(IV) complex with N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediaminetriacetic acid [Sn(μ-Hedtra)(μ-OH)SnCl3(H2O)] · 3H2O

The binuclear tin(IV) complex with N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′,N′-triacetic acid (H₄Hedtra) is synthesized. The compound is characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetry, and IR spectroscopy. An X-ray diffraction analysis of complex Sn(μ-Hedtra)(μ-OH)SnCl₃(H₂O)] · 3H₂O (I) is carried out. Structure I is formed by the binuclear complexes and molecules of water of crystallization. One of the tin atoms coordinates six “active” sites Hedtra^4? (the alcohol branch is deprotonated and forms a bridge between two tin atoms) and the bridging hydroxo group. The polyhedron is a pentagonal bipyramid. The octahedral environment of the second tin atom is formed by two bridging oxygen atoms, three chlorine atoms (fac isomer), and a coordination water molecule.     

Spectroscopic,electrocatalytic, and photoelectrochemical characteristics of mixed-ligand bis(β-dicarbonylato) phthalocyanine complexes of zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV)

The electronic absorption (EAS) and fluorescence spectra and electrocatalytic and photoelectrochemical characteristics of mixed-ligand complexes of zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV) based on phthalocyanines in solutions and in thin films were investigated. It was established that a significant bathochromic shift of the Q band and redistribution of the intensities in the absorption bands are observed in the electronic absorption spectra. It was shown that films of the synthesized compounds are promising for use as photosensitizers and electrochemical sensors for oxygen in solution. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 44, No. 3, pp. 133–137, May–June, 2008.

The Mg²⁺ ion in I is bonded to six O atoms of two HTBA^? ions and four water molecules that form a nearly regular octahedron. Each Sr²⁺ ion in II is coordinated to three oxygen atoms of three HTBA^? ions and six water molecules that form an almost ideal tricapped trigonal prism. These polyhedra share edges to form infinite chains. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds create layered structures of I and II.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and Semi-Empirical Study of Organotin(IV) Complexes with 4-(Hydroxymethyl)piperidine-1-carbodithioic Acid: X-Ray Structure of Chlorodimethyl-(4-hydroxymethyl piperidine-1-carbodithioato-S,S′)tin(IV)

Abstract

Organotin complexes with the general formulae R₂SnL₂, R₂Sn(Cl)L, and R₃SnL have been synthesized where R = CH₃, n-C₄H₆, C₆H₅, C₆H₁₁, and L = 4-(hydroxy methyl)piperidine-1-carbodithioic acid. The newly synthesized complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn), and, for one example, a single crystal x-ray structure. The FT-IR data shows the bidentate nature of the ligand. This coordination behavior is also confirmed by semi-empirical study. In the solid state, diorganotin complexes exhibit the penta/hexacoordinated geometry, whereas the triorganotin(IV) complexes show the five coordinated geometry. ¹¹⁹Sn NMR data reveal that triorganotin(IV) complexes exhibit the four coordinated geometry in solution, whereas the diorganotin(IV) compounds show the higher coordination, probably five or six. X-ray diffraction analysis of complex (2) shows a square pyramidal geometry around the tin atom on the basis of τ value.
