Dicyclohexylamides as ionophores for li-selective electrodes. Crystal structures of a triamide ligand and its complex with lithium ion

The influence of structure and lipophilicity of dicyclohexylamides on the lithium selectivity in membrane electrodes is discussed. The crystal structures of the triamide podand1 and its complex with LiBr1b has been determined by X-ray analysis. Crystal data for ligand1: C₄₈H₈₃O₆N₃, triclinic,P1,a=10.749(2),b=12.097(3),c=19.123(6)Å, =95.76(2),=80.06(2), =100.27(2)⁰,V=2403(1) ó,Z=2.

The structure of a 1:4 adduct between 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane (18-crown-6) and thiourea

The structure of 18-crown-6·4 thiourea has been determined by single crystal X-ray methods. The unit cell is monoclinic and the space group isP2₁, witha=9.251(3),b=19.285(8),c=16.556(7) Å and =90.85(6)°. There are two formula units, C₁₂H₂₄O₆·4CH₄N₂S, in the asymmetric unit; finalR=0.086. One thiourea is attached at either side of the macrocycle (biangular conformation) via N–N...O bonds and the patterns in the two crystallographically-independent adductsA andB differ slightly, involving two bifurcated hydrogen bonds inA. Core adducts are linked by additional thiourea molecules via N–H...S bonds. As compared to the analogous 18-crown-6·5 urea, the present 1:4 stoichiometry might be attributed to the longer S...N hydrogen bonding distance, i.e., to the bigger van der Waals radius of sulphur.

In the crystal structure of 1, the (n-C₃H₇)₄N⁺ cations are stacked in a single column and accommodated within each channel built up by wide thiourea ribbons and benzoate ions via N—H···O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure of 2, the tetrabutylammonium cations are arranged in a zigzag column within each channel built of parallel corrugated thiourea layers that are inter-linked by dimeric [(C₆H₅CO₂)₂H]^– groups through N—H·O hydrogen bonds. In compound 3 the (C₂H₅)₄N⁺ cations are accommodated in pseudo-channels generated from infinitely extended thiourea-benzoate composite ribbons.     

Synthesis,characterization, and X-ray structure of 1,2-bis-crown-5-calix[4]arene. Modeling of metal complexation

1,2-bis-crown-5-calix[4]arene (3) was prepared by reacting calix[4]arene (1) with tetraethylene glycol di-p-toluenesulphonate (2) in the presence of cesium carbonate in 9% yield. The X-ray structure of (3) was determined. Crystal data for C₄₄H₅₂O₁₀ are as follows: monoclinic, space groupP _2/c witha=18.006(8) Å,b=10.680(4) Å,c=22.359(6) Å, =112.93(3)°,V=3958(6) ų,Z=4,D _calc=1.2 g cm^–3, the finalR value is 0.11 for the 1851 observed reflections (I>3(I)). The single crystal included two similar but slightly different molecules immobilized in a pinched-cone conformation withC ₂ symmetry. The two enantiomorphous molecules were analyzed by molecular mechanics using the GenMol program to model the selective alkali-metal complexation.This paper is dedicated to the commemorative issue on the 50th anniversary of calixarenes.     

Complexation of copper(I) by thiourea in acidic aqueous solution

The interaction of copper(II) and copper(I) with thiourea(Tu) has been investigated by UV and visible spectrophotometry. Over the range of concentrations of copper(I) and Tu(0.1–20)×10^–3 mol-dm^–3 in acid aqueous solutions there are two complexes, CuTu₂ ⁺ (log ₂=11.1) and the other has the ratio Cu/Tu=1/1 with the likely composition Cu₂Tu₂ ²⁺ with log ₂₂=18.5. By the determination of copper(0) solubility in acid thiourea solution and potentiometric measurements it was shown that the potential of the copper electrode is that of a non-equilibrium (corrosive) electrode.     

Spectrophotometric determination of rhenium using 2-pyridyl thiourea

The reagent 2-pyridyl thiourea produces a reddish brown complex with rhenium in hydrochloric acid medium in the presence of tin(II) chloride. The complex shows absorption maxima at 405 nm, obeys Beer's law for a range of 1–16 ppm of rhenium. The sensitivity and molar absorptivity is found to be 0.0115g cm^–2 and 1.603×10⁴ 1 mol^–1 cm^–1 respectively showing an improvement over other sulphur-nitrogen bearing ligands. Composition found by Job's and mole ratio method, indicates that the complex contains metal and reagent in the ratio 12. Stability constant and stepwise formation constants of the complex have been evaluated by Harvey-Manning's method (logK _overall=8.825), Leden's method (logK _overall=8.3096), Rossotti-Rossotti's method (logK _overall=8.653) and Yatsimirskii's method (logK _overall=8.740). The relative error per 1% absolute photometric error is found to be 2.7%.     

Coordination chemistry of alkali and alkaline earth cations: Synthesis and crystal structure of potassium(benzo-15-crown-5)2 [3,5-dinitrobenzoate(3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid)2]

The interaction of K(35-Dnb) (35-Dnb=3,5-dinitrobenzoate) with benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) in ethanol yields a charge-separated sandwich structured complex [K(B15C5)₂]⁺[35-Dnb(35-DnbH)₂]^– even when equimolar amounts of reactants were used and no external 35-DnbH was added to the reaction mixture. The complex (KC₄₉H₅₁O₂₈N₆, FW=1211.1), is monoclinic,P2₁/c,a=11.063(2),b=10.680(1),c=46.548(8) Å, =91.629(2)⁰,Z=4,D ₀=1.485 g/cm³,D _c=1.468 g/cm³, CuK =1.5418 Å, =17.01 cm^–1, 2<130⁰,F(000)=2520,T=298 K. FinalR for the 6618 observed reflections was 0.071. In the sandwich moiety, the K⁺ is 10-coordinated through all the oxygens of the crown molecules (K⁺–O, 2.76–3.11 Å). The 35-Dnb anion lies 5.3 Å below the lower crown mean plane and is charge separated with respect to K⁺ (K⁺–O^–>7 Å) but undergoes strong hydrogen bonding (2.59 and 2.49 Å) through each carboxylate oxygen with the carboxylic protons of two separate 35-DnbH molecules.

Crystal and molecular structure of a crown-bridgedp-t-butyl-calix[4]arene (1:1) pyridine complex. Host-guest interaction model based on molecular mechanics analysis [1]

The crystal and molecular structure of a crownedp-t-butyl-calix[4]arene (1:1) pyridine complex is reported. Colourless transparent prismatic crystals (obtained from pyridine) C₅₄H₇₄O₈·C₅H₅N,a=13.486(4),b=15.193(4),c=16.432(5) Å, =116.44(4)°, space groupP2₁,Z=2,D _calc=1.02g cm^–3, CuK radiation =1.5418 Å (CuK )=4.99 cm^–1. Refinement was carried out using 1702 reflections withI>3(I) toR 0.12. The macrocycle shows a distorted cone conformation which defines an intramolecular apolar cavity whose elliptical aperture is 11.5×8.6 Å calculated as distances between the two opposite central C atoms of the Bu ^t groups. A molecule of pyridine is included in this cavity, whereas the intermolecular cavities of the host lattice remain empty. The influence of the guest molecule on the conformation of the calixarene-crown is discussed. Potential energy calculations are performed in order to understand the nature of the host-guest interactions responsible for the stabilisation of the complex. Evidence for stabilizing CH₃- interactions are obtained from the calculations. Supplementary Data relevant to this article have been deposited with the British Library as supplementary Publication No. SUP 82068 (9 pages).     

Kinetics and mechanism of the interaction of thiourea with cis-diaquaethylene-diamineplatinum(II) perchlorate in aqueous medium

The kinetics of the interaction of thiourea with [Pt(en)(H₂O)₂]²⁺ have been studied spectrophotometrically as a function of [Pt(en)(H₂O)₂]²⁺, [thiourea] and temperature at a particular pH(4.0), where the substrate complex exists predominantly as the diaqua species and the thiourea ligand as a neutral molecule. The reaction proceeds via a rapid outer sphere association followed by two slow consecutive steps, the second step exhibiting first order dependence on the aqua ion and thiourea concentrations. The activation parameters for both the steps have been evaluated: (H ₁ = 54.8 ± 1.2 kJ mol^–1, S ₁ = –96 ± 4 J K^–1 mol^–1, H ₂ = 27.9 ± 0.8 kJ mol^–1 and, S ₂ = –183 ± 2.6 J K^–1 mol^–1). The low enthalpy of activation and large negative values of entropy of activation indicate an associative mode of activation for both consecutive steps.

Further studies of M3(μ3-O)(μ-X)3(μ-O2CCH3)3L3 (M=Mo,W) type clusters with nine core electrons

Four new compounds having nine cluster electrons and cores of the types Mo₃OCl₃, Mo₃OBr₃, and W₃OCl₃ are reported. Compound (1) prepared by reduction of [Bu₄N][Mo₃OCl₆(OAc)₃] in THF with metallic zinc, was shown by X-ray crystallography to be Mo₃OCl₄(OAc)₃ (THF)₂ (1). It forms crystals in space groupP2₁ with unit cell dimensionsa=9.472(2) Å,b=13.546(4) Å,c=9.652(2) Å, =101.70(2)°,V=1201(1) Å₃,Z=2. The [Mo₃(₃-O)(-Cl)₃]⁴⁺ core is surrounded by three -O₂CCH₃ anions, one Cl^–, and two THF and has Mo-Mo distances of 2.620(1) Å, 2.613(1) Å, and 2.530(1) Å, with the shortest bond between the two Mo atoms to which the THF molecules are coordinated. Compounds [Bu₄N]₂ [Mo₃OBr₆(O₂CCH₃)₃] · Me₂CO, (2) and [Mo₃OBr₃(O₂CCH₃)₃(PMe₃)₃]₃ · BF₄, (3) are the first two nine-electron Mo₃ species with a [Mo₃(₃-O) Br₃]⁴⁺ core.

While the anion has no crystallographically required symmetry, its virtual symmetry is C_3v . The Mo-Mo distances are 2.619(2) Å, 2.610(3) Å, 2.644(2) Å, with a mean value of 2.624[14] Å. Compound (3) crystallized in space groupP2₁/c with unit cell dimensionsa=10.846(2) Å,b=25.033(5) Å,c=12.641(5) Å, =94.74(2)⁰,V=3420(2) ų,Z=4.

Thus the anionic and cationic Mo₃ clusters in (2) and (3), respectively, have average Mo-Mo distances that are equal within experimental error. Compound (4), [NEt₄]₂ [W₃OCl₆(O₂CCH₃)₃] is the first 9-electron compound of this type containing tungsten. It was prepared by reduction of [Et₄N][W₃OCl₆(OAc)₃] in benzene with Na/Hg.

The crystal structure of tris(4-pyrazol-1-yl-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl)phosphine 1 has been determined, proving that the assignment based on spectroscopic data was correct: C₂₇H₉F₁₂N₆P,M _r = 676.37, monoclinic, space group P2_l/c,a=10.754(2) å,b=10.316(2) å,c = 23.598(5) å,=95.36(3),V=2607(1), å³,Z=4,R ₁=0.042, andwR ₂=0.122.     

Thiourea N- and S-Derivatives as Ligands: Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 4CuCl · 6All–NHCSNH2 and [(All–NH)2C–SC2H5]Cu2ClxBr3 – x (x = 0.765, All is Allyl)

Crystals of the compounds 4CuCl · 6CH₂=CH–CH₂–NHCSNH₂ (I) and [(CH₂=CH–CH₂–NH)₂C–SC₂H₅]Cu₂Cl _x Br_{3 – x} (x = 0.765) (II) were synthesized by the ac electrochemical method, and their crystal structures were determined (CuK and MoK radiation, 2575 and 1090 unique reflections with F 4(F), R = 0.050 and 0.028 for I and II, respectively). Complex I crystallizes in space group C2/c, a = 17.230(7) Å, b = 12.258(5) Å, c = 42.95(2) Å, = 97.48(4)°, V = 8994(7) ų, Z = 8. The structure of -complex II is described by space group P2₁/n, a = 10.633(5) Å, b = 9.280(5) Å, c = 16.024(4) Å, = 102.16(3)°, V = 1546(1) ų, Z = 4. Complex I is built from isolated units of the aforementioned composition; every allylthiourea molecule coordinates two metal atoms through the sulfur atom. The distorted tetrahedral surrounding of every Cu(I) atom involves three S atoms and one Cl atom. The N,N"-diallyl-S-ethylisotiouronium cation coordinates two copper atoms through the C=C bonds, 1.32(1) and 1.35(1)Å, uniting the cuprohalide chains in layers. The structure of complex II is very close to the structure of the previously studied -complex of diallylammonium [H⁺L]Cu₂Cl₃.
