Syntheses and structures of rhenium(IV) and rhenium(V) complexes with ethanedithiolato ligands

A novel dimeric rhenium(IV) complex, [Re2(SCH2CH2S)4], and a monomeric methyloxorhenium(V) complex, [CH3ReO(SCH2CH2S)PPh3], were synthesized from methyloxorhenium(V) complexes and characterized crystallographically. The structure of [Re2(SCH2CH2S)4], the formation reaction of which showed surprising demethylation conceivably through the homolytic cleaveage of the rhenium-carbon bond, features distorted trigonal prismatic coordination of sulfurs around the metal center and a rhenium-rhenium triple bond. A revised structure, [Tc2(SCH2CH2S)4], is proposed for a related technetium complex, originally identified as [Tc2(SCH2CH2S)2(SCH=CHS)2] (Tisato et al. Inorg. Chem. 1993, 32, 2042). Additionally, a new compound, CH3Re(O)(SPh)2PPh3, was prepared.     

Li,Ti(III), and Ti(IV) trisamidotriazacyclononane complexes. Syntheses,reactivity, and structures

The preparations of 1,4,7-(NHPhSiMe(2))(3)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (H(3)N(3)-tacn) and its lithium and sodium derivatives are described. The X-ray structure of the THF adduct of the lithium derivative, Li(3)N(3)-tacn(THF)(2), shows that one of the macrocycle pendant arms is bent to allow the coordination of the its lithium ion to two tacn amines. In solution, a fluxional process makes all the pending arms magnetically equivalent. The reactions of Li(3)N(3)-tacn or Na(3)N(3)-tacn with either TiCl(4) and TiCl(3)(THF)(3) led to the formation of [Ti(N(3)-tacn)], 5. The oxidation of 5 with various oxidizing reagents gave cationic complexes [Ti(N(3)-tacn)]X, 6 (X = I, Cl, SCN, PF(6), BPh(4)), that exist as a pair of enantiomers, lambda(lambdalambdalambda)/delta(deltadeltadelta), which interconvert in solution. The molecular structures of 5 and 6 (X = I, BPh(4)) show the coordination of the six nitrogen donor set to the titanium. Due to the short length of the tacn pendant arms, the hexadentate bonding mode of the ligand is mainly achieved through the sharpening of the N-Si-N angles. The reaction of [Ti(N(3)-tacn)]I, 6a, with W(CO)(6) led to the synthesis of [Ti(N(3)-tacn)][W(CO)(5)I], 7.     

Rhenium(IV) and rhenium(V) complexes with 3,5-dimethylpyrazole

Mono-and dinuclear Re^IV and Re^V complexes with 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (Me₂pzH) were synthesized. The cis-[Re₂O₃Cl₄(3,5-Me₂pzH)₄] complex (cis-1) was prepared by the reaction of NH₄ReO₄ with K[HB(Me₂pz)₃] in concentrated HCl or by refluxing of [ReCl₃(MeCN)(PPh₃)₂] with Me₂pzH in air. The bromide complex trans-[Re₂O₃Br₄(3,5-Me₂pzH)₄] (trans-2) was synthesized by passing dry HBr through a solution of [Re₂O₃Br₂(μ-3,5-Me₂pz)₂(3,5-Me₂pzH)₂] (4) in chloroform. The pyrazolate-bridged complex [Re₂O₃Cl₂(μ-3,5-Me₂pz)₂(3,5-Me₂pzH)₂] (3) was prepared from (Et₄N)₂[ReOCl₅] or Cs₂[ReOCl₅] and Me₂pzH. The corresponding bromide and iodide complexes [Re₂O₃X₂(3,5-Me₂pz)₂(3,5-Me₂pzH)₂] · C₆H₆ (X = Br (4) or I (5)) were synthesized by the reactions of (NH₄)₂[ReBr₆] or K₂[ReI₆], respectively, with Me₂pzH. The [ReO(OMe)(3,5-Me₂pzH)₄]Br₂ · · 3,5-Me₂pzH · 4H₂O complex (6) was obtained as a by-product in the synthesis of complex 4. The reaction of [ReNCl₂(PPh₃)₂] with Me₂pzH was accompanied by hydrolytic denitration giving rise to the mixed-ligand complex [Re₂O₃Cl₂(μ-3,5-Me₂pz)₂(3,5-Me₂pzH)(PPh₃)] (7). The reaction of (NH₄)₂[ReBr₆] with a Me₂pzH melt gave the trans-[ReBr₄(3,5-Me₂pzH)₂] · · Me₂CO complex (8). The structures of complexes 2 and 4–8 were established by X-ray diffraction. All compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, electronic absorption spectroscopy, ¹H NMR and IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and cyclic voltammetry.

Complex formation reactions of lanthanum(III), cerium(III), thorium(IV), dioxouranyl(IV) complexes with tricine

Equilibrium studies for the heavy metal ions La(III), Ce(III), Th(IV) and UO2(IV) (M) complexes of the zwitterionic buffer tricine (L) in aqueous solution are investigated. Stoichiometry and stability constants for the different complexes formed as well as hydrolysis products of the metal cations are determined at 25 degrees C and ionic strength 0.1 M NaNO3. The stability of the formed complexes are discussed in terms of the nature of the heavy metal cation. The solid complexes are synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analysis, FTIR, and TG analysis. The general molecular formulae of the obtained complexes is suggested to be [M(L)2](NO3)n-2(H2O)x, where n = the charge of the metal cation, x = no. of water molecules.     

Efficiency and application of poly(acryldinitrophenylamidrazone-dinitroacrylphenylhydrazine) chelating fiber for pre-concentrating and separating trace Au(III), Ru(III), In(III), Bi(III), Zr(IV), V(V), Ga(III) and Ti(IV) from solution samples

Poly(acryldinitrophenylamidrazone-dinitroacrylphenylhydrazine) chelating fiber was synthesized from polyacrylonitrile fiber and used for enrichment and separation for traces of Au(III), Ru(III), In(III), Bi(III), Zr(IV), V(V), Ga(III) and Ti(IV) ions from solution samples. The acidity, rate, re-use, capacity and interference on the adsorption of ions on the chelating fiber as well as the conditions of desorption of these ions from the chelating fiber were investigated by means of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The results show that 10-100 ngml(-1) of Au(III), Ru(III), In(III), Bi(III), Zr(IV), V(V), Ga(III) and Ti(IV) ions can be quantitatively enriched by the chelating fiber at a 2 mlmin(-1) of flow rate in the range pH 4-5, and desorbed quantitatively with 20 ml of 5 M HCl for In(III), Bi(III), Zr(IV), V(V), Ga(III), Ti(IV) and 20 ml of 4 M HCl+2% CS(NH(2))(2) solution for Au(III), Ru(III) (with recovery>95%). 50- to 500- fold excesses of Fe(III), Al(III), Mg(II), Mn(II), Ca(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) ions cause little interference in the concentration and determination of analyzed ions. When the fiber was reused for 8 times, the recoveries of the above ions enriched by the fiber were still over 87%. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) for the enrichment and determination of 10 ngml(-1) Au, Ru, In, Bi, Ga and 1 ngml(-1) Zr, V, Ti were lower than 3.0%. The results obtained for these ions in real solution samples by this method were basically in agreement with the given values with average errors of less than 6.3%. FT-IR spectra show that existence of NNCNHNH, OCNHNH and NO(2) functional groups are verified in chelating fiber, and Au(III) or Ru(III) is mainly combined with nitrogen (or oxygen) of the groups to form a chelate complex.     

Synthesis and characterization of Ru(III), Rh(III), Pt(IV) and Ir(III) thiosemicarbazone complexes

Ru(III), Rh(III), Pt(IV) and Ir(III) complexes of 2-furfural thiosemicarbazone as ligand have been synthesised. These complexes have the composition [M(ligand)₂X₂]X (M = Ru(III) Rh(III) and Ir(III) X = Cl and Br) and [Pt(ligand)₂ X₂] X₂ (X = Cl, Br and 1/2SO₄). The deprotonated ligand forms the complexes of the formulae M(ligand-H)₃ and Pt(ligand-H)₃Cl. All these complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic measurements, electronic and infrared spectral studies. All the complexes are six-coordinate octahedral.     

Vanadium (III), oxovanadium (IV) and oxovanadium (V) trifluoro-methanesulfonates

V(SO₃CF₃)₃, VO(SO₃CF₃)₂ and VO(SO₃CF₃)₃ have been prepared by reacting V(O₂CCF₃)₃, VO(O₂CCF₃)₂ and VOC1₃ with HSO₃CF₃. The i.r. data suggest a bridging bidentate nature for SO₃CF₃ groups. The diffuse reflectance spectrum of V(SO₃CF₃)₃ suggests hexacoordination of vanadium, whilst that of VO(SO₃CF₃)₂ is comparable to either five or six coordinated oxovanadium (IV) systems. The magnetic moments of V(SO₃CF₃)₃ and VO(SO₃CF₃)₂ are slightly lower than the spin-only values. Thermal decomposition of these triflates is simple. All the three triflates form coordination complexes with pyridine, 2, 2′-bipyridyl and triphenylphosphine oxide.     

Photoelectron spectra of uranium(IV), (V) and (VI) complexes

Satellites were observed on 4f photoelectron spectra of uranium (IV) complexes, while none was seen for diamagnetic uranyl complexes. Photoelectron lines of oxygen 1s coordinated to the uranium ion were broad for NaUO₃ and uranyl complexes.     

Modeling Speciation and Solubility in Aqueous Systems Containing U(IV,VI), Np(IV,V, VI), Pu(III,IV, V,VI), Am(III), and Cm(III)

A comprehensive thermodynamic model, referred to as the Mixed-Solvent Electrolyte model, has been applied to calculate phase equilibria and chemical speciation in selected aqueous actinide systems. The solution chemistry of U(IV, VI), Np(IV, V, VI), Pu(III, IV, V, VI), Am(III), and Cm(III) has been analyzed to develop the parameters of the model. These parameters include the standard-state thermochemical properties of aqueous and solid actinide species as well as the ion interaction parameters that reflect the solution’s nonideality. The model reproduces the solubility behavior and accurately predicts the formation of competing solid phases as a function of pH (from 0 to 14 and higher), temperature (up to 573 K), partial pressure of CO₂ (up to \( p_{{{\text{CO}}_{2} }} \)  = 1 bar), and concentrations of acids (to 127 mol·kg^?1), bases (to 18 mol·kg^?1), carbonates (to 6 mol·kg^?1) and other ionic components (i.e., Na⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, OH^?, Cl^?, \( {\text{ClO}}_{4}^{ - } \), and \( {\text{NO}}_{3}^{ - } \)). Redox effects on solubility and speciation have been incorporated into the model, as exemplified by the reductive and oxidative dissolution of Np(VI) and Pu(IV) solids, respectively. Thus, the model can be used to elucidate the phase and chemical equilibria for radionuclides in natural aquatic systems or in nuclear waste repository environments as a function of environmental conditions. Additionally, the model has been applied to systems relevant to nuclear fuel processing, in which nitric acid and nitrate salts of plutonium and uranium are present at high concentrations. The model reproduces speciation and solubility in the U(VI) + HNO₃ + H₂O and Pu(IV, VI) + HNO₃ + H₂O systems up to very high nitric acid concentrations (\( x_{{{\text{HNO}}_{3} }} \approx 0.70 \)). Furthermore, the similarities and differences in the solubility behavior of the actinides have been analyzed in terms of aqueous speciation.     

Comparative electrochemistry of technetium(V) and rhenium(V) dioxo complexes

The heavy use of^99mTc in nuclear medicine and the recent development of¹⁸⁸Re radiopharmaceuticals have encouraged the comparative study of Tc and Re coordination compounds. In this work, the electrochemistry of [M^VO₂ (amine)₂]⁺ (M=Tc, Re; amine = ethylenediamine, 1,3-diaminopropane, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine) complexes is studied by cyclic voltammetry and the results are compared. The voltammograms of these compounds, obtained at different pH values, show that [ReO₂(amine)₂]⁺ cations are thermodynamically stable even when protonated. On the other hand, analogous Tc compounds are not so stable and easily decompose if existing as [TcO(OH) (amine)₂]²⁺.

The following properties were studied: stability of the aqueous solutions at different pH values, substitution kinetics, lipophilicity and protein binding. The complexes show very similar reactivity in aqueous solution. From a radiopharmaceutical point of view, no significant difference in their in vivo behavior is expected.     

Molybdenum(VI), (V) and (IV) complexes with chiral benzoin thiosemicarbazone

The chiral (ONS) dianionic Schiff base ligand benzoin thiosemicarbazone (H₂L) reacts with MoO₂(acac)₂ to give the polymeric complex [(MoO₂L) _n ] (1) (Type 1). The reaction of MoO₂L with pyridine (py), 3-picoline (3-pic) or 4-picoline (4-pic) gives [Mo^VIO₂LD] (D = py, 3-pic or 4-pic) (Type 1). Further, the reaction of [MoO₂L] or [MoO₂LD] with PPh₃ or reaction of [MoO₂L] with PPh₃ (plus bpy or phen, D) in the presence of donor reagents D gives [Mo^IVOL] or [Mo^IVOLD] (Type 2). On the other hand, the reaction of [MoO₂L] with hydrazides (zdhH₃) such as benzoylhydrazine (bhH₃), isonicotinoylhydrazine (inhH₃), nicotinoylhydrazine (nhH₃), salicyloylhydrazine (slhH₃) and thiosemicarbazide (tscH₃) produced non-oxo–diazenido complexes [MoL(zdh)] (Type 3). The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic moment, electronic, i.r. and e.s.r. spectroscopic measurements.     

Syntheses and structures of missing links among polybromocyclopentadienyl rhenium and manganese tricarbonyl complexes

Reactions of diazocyclopentadiene and NBS at appropriate stoichiometries give 2,5-dibromodiazocyclopentadiene and 2,3,5-tribromodiazocyclopentadiene in 40% and 30% yields, respectively, after chromatography. These react with BrRe(CO)₅ or BrMn(CO)₅ (80 °C, CF₃C₆H₅) to give (η⁵-1,2,3-C₅H₂Br₃)M(CO)₃ (3; M = a, Re; b, Mn) and (η⁵-C₅HBr₄)M(CO)₃ (4a,b) in 75-85% yields. In the case of 4a, the intermediate η¹-cyclopentadienyl complex (η¹-C₅HBr₄)Re(CO)₅ (4′a) can be isolated (44%). An isomer of 3b, (η⁵-1,2,4-C₅H₂Br₃)Mn(CO)₃, is accessed by desilylating previously reported (η⁵-1,2,4-C₅(SiMe₃)₂Br₃)Mn(CO)₃ with CsF/MeOH (85%). The reaction of tetrabromodiazocyclopentadiene and BrRe(CO)₅ at 80 °C in CF₃C₆H₅ gives the η¹-cyclopentadienyl complex (η¹-C₅Br₅)Re(CO)₅ (5′a, 74%) which cannot be induced to decarbonylate to (η⁵-C₅Br₅)Re(CO)₃ (5a) under a variety of conditions. However, 5a can be isolated (45%) when a similar reaction is conducted at 120 °C. The IR properties of the preceding complexes are compared, and the crystal structures of 3a, 3b, 5a, and 5′a are determined and analyzed.     

Syntheses and X-ray crystal structures of zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV) complexes containing monovacant wells-Dawson and Keggin polyoxotungstates

The syntheses and crystal structures of a series of zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV) complexes with Dawson monovacant phosphotungstate [alpha2-P2W17O61](10-) and in situ-generated Keggin monovacant phosphotungstate [alpha-PW11O39](7-), which was obtained by a reaction of [alpha-PW12O40](3-) with Na2CO3, are described. K15H[Zr(alpha2-P2W17O61)2].25H2O (K-1), K16[Hf(alpha2-P2W17O61)2].19H2O (K-2), (Et2NH2)10[Zr(alpha-PW11O39)2].7H2O (Et2NH2-3), and (Et2NH2)10[Hf(alpha-PW11O39)2].2H2O (Et2NH2-4), being afforded by reactions in aqueous solutions of monolacunary Dawson and Keggin polyoxotungstates with ZrCl2O.8H2O and HfCl2O.8H2O followed by exchanging countercations, were obtained as analytically pure, homogeneous colorless crystals. Single-crystal X-ray structure analyses revealed that the Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) ions are in a square antiprismatic coordination environment with eight oxygen atoms, four of them being provided from each of the two monovacant polyanion ligands. Although the total molecular shapes and the 8-coordinate zirconium and hafnium centers of complexes 1-4 are identical, the bonding modes (bond lengths and bond angles) around the zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV) centers were dependent on the monovacant structures of the polyanion ligands. Additionally, the characterization of complexes 1-4 was accomplished by elemental analysis, TG/DTA, FTIR, and solution (31P and 183W) NMR spectroscopy.
