Synthesis,crystal structure and ferromagnetic interactions of a silver(I) complex with imizadolyl-substituted nitroxide radicals

A silver(I) complex with nitronyl nitroxide, [Ag₂(NIT-R)₄(NO₃)₂]?·?CH₃OH [NIT-R?=?2-(5-methylimidazol-4-yl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-imidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide], has been prepared and characterized by magnetic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. In the complex, the silver(I) ion is coordinated with two monodentate nitronyl nitroxide radicals by the nitrogen of the imizadole ring. The silver(I) ion is two-coordinate and forms a dimer through Ag?···?Ag weak metal bonding interactions. The magnetic properties for the title complex have been investigated in the temperature range 2?～?300?K showing ferromagnetic interactions between the coordinated nitronyl nitroxides (J?=?3.64?cm^?1) and intermolecular antiferromagnetic interactions.     

Synthesis,properties, and X-ray crystal structures of two Ag(I) complexes with 2-(pyridin-4-yl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid

Two 1-D and 3-D Ag(I) complexes involving 2-(pyridin-4-yl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (H₃PIDC) have been characterized by infrared spectrum, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. [Ag₂(HPIDC)]_n (1), synthesized under hydrothermal conditions, gave a 3-D framework; [Ag₂(HPIDC)(MBI)]_n (2) (MBI?=?2-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole), with MBI as the second ligand, gave a 1-D zigzag chain and further formed a 3-D supramolecular structure through π···π interactions. The most interesting structural features of these complexes are the presence of C–H···Ag hydrogen bonding interactions and Ag···C weak interactions between the Ag centers and H₃PIDC. Luminescence indicates that 2 has significantly stronger fluorescent emissions than 1 in the solid state at room temperature.     

Syntheses,Structures, and Thermal Reactivity of New ZnII and CdII Thio‐ and Selenocyanato Coordination Compounds

Reaction of Zn^II and Cd^II thiocyanate or selenocyanate with pyrazine leads to the formation of new Zn^II and Cd^II coordination compounds. The structures of [Zn(NCSe)₂(pyrazine)₂]_n ( 1A ), [Cd(NCS)₂(pyrazine)₂]_n ( 2A ) and [Cd(NCSe)₂(pyrazine)₂]_n ( 3A ) consist of octahedrally coordinated metal cations which are surrounded by two terminal N‐bonded anions and two μ₂‐bridging pyrazine molecules. The metal cations are connected via the pyrazine ligands into layers, which are further linked by weak intermolecular S···S respectively Se···Se interactions. Investigations on the thermal degradation behavior of 1A , 2A , and 3A using simultaneous differential thermoanalysis and thermogravimetry as well as X‐ray powder diffraction, IR‐ and Raman spectroscopy prove that on heating, the pyrazine‐rich compound 1A decomposes in one step into zinc selenocyanate without the formation of a pyrazine‐deficient intermediate. In contrast, for compounds 2A and 3A a stepwise decomposition is observed, leading to the formation of the pyrazine‐deficient compounds [Cd(NCS)₂(pyrazine)]_n ( 2B‐I and 2B‐II ) and [Cd(NCSe)₂(pyrazine)]_n ( 3B ) as intermediates. The structures and the thermal reactivity are discussed and compared with that of related transition metal thiocyanates and selenocyanates with pyridine as N‐donor ligand.

A new one-dimensional coordination polymer [Ni(phth)(phen)(H₂O)] _n ?·?nH₂O was synthesized. The structure was determined by X-ray crystallography revealing that each nickel atom is five-coordinate bridged via phthalate ion to form a zigzag chain.

A novel two-dimensional silver(I) saccharinato coordination polymer constructed from weak Ag?C interactions: Synthesis, IR spectra and X-ray structure

A new dinuclear silver(I)-saccharinato (sac) complex with acetonitrile (MeCN), [Ag₂(sac)₂(MeCN)₂]_n has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The silver(I) ions are doubly bridged by two sac ligands, leading to a short argentophilic contact of 2.9074(3) Å. Each silver(I) ion exhibits a square-planar coordination geometry including the Ag-Ag bonds. The individual dimeric molecules are extended into a two-dimensional layered structure by weak Ag?C_sac (η²) interactions of ca. 3.2 Å. These interactions were discussed and compared with those found in the first silver(I)-sac complex [Ag(sac)]_n.     

A silver(I) coordination derivative of 2,3-dimethylthio-6-pyridyl tetrathiafulvalene,synthesis, crystal structure and electrochemical properties

A silver coordination compound [Ag(I)(DMT–TTF-py)₂CH₃CN] ClO₄?·?CH₂Cl₂ has been synthesized by reaction of DMT–TTF-py with AgClO₄. Structure analysis shows that the cations self-assemble to dimeric units through Ag?···?Ag interactions. Each silver(I) has a T-shaped AgN₃ coordination geometry. In the dimeric units, there are short C?···?S and C?···?C contacts between the two DMT–TTF-py molecules. The dimeric units are further assembled to a zigzag packing structure. The cyclic voltametric behavior of the ligand shows two-step reversible redox waves, which are shifted to lower values due to coordination to silver.     

A disparate 3-D silver(I) coordination polymer of pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate and pyrimidine with strong intermetallic interactions: X-ray crystallography,photoluminescence and antimicrobial activity

A polymeric silver(I) complex, [Ag₄(μ-pydc)₂(μ-pm)₂]_n (1) (pydc = pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate and pm = pyrimidine), has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray crystallographic data of 1 revealed that pydc exhibits two different coordinaton modes that play a key role in the construction of the 3-D crystal network including Ag–carboxylate clusters in which close Ag–Ag distances exist. The magnitudes of close Ag–Ag interactions in second-order energy (E²) have been revealed by natural bond orbital analysis performed with single point energy calculation using the experimental geometry of 1. Furthermore, the luminescent properties of 1 show strong fluorescence with two emission maxima in the visible region. Also, 1 has antifungal activity on Candida albicans (MIC value, 4 μg mL^?1) and good antibacterial activity on micro-organisms (MIC value, 64–256 μg mL^?1).     

Tertiary phosphine-appended transition metal ferrocenyl dithiocarbamates: Syntheses,Hirshfeld surface,and electrochemical analyses

Five new heteroleptic complexes of Cu(I), Ag(I), and Ni(II) having formulae [Cu₃(dtc)₂(dppf)₂]PF₆ ( Cu-I ), [Cu₃(dtc)₂(dppe)₂]PF₆ ( Cu-II ), [Cu(PPh₃)₂(dtc)] ( Cu-III ), [Ag₃(dtc)₂(PPh₃)₂]NO₃ ( Ag-I ), and [Ni(dtc)(dppf)]PF₆ ( Ni-I ) (dtc = N-ethanol-N-methylferrocenyl-dithiocarbamate; dppf = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene; dppe = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane; PPh₃ = tripheylphosphine) have been synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, Fourier-transform infrared, multinuclear nuclear magnetic resonance, UV–Vis spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies indicate that Ag-I forms a rare trinuclear cluster in which the geometry around the two silver centers Ag1 and Ag3 is distorted tetrahedral, whereas the third silver center Ag2 shows a distorted trigonal planar geometry. The Ni-I complex has a distorted square-planar geometry around the Ni center. In addition, a side product [Ag₂{S₂(dppf)₂}] ( Ag-II ) was obtained during an attempt to synthesize [Ag(dppf)(dtc)], where the two Ag centers are bridged by two sulfido centers and coordinated with two phosphorus centers of the dppf ligand to give rise to a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The solid-state structures of Ag-I , Ni-I , and Ag-II are stabilized by a variety of weak interactions. The nature of these interactions has been addressed with the help of Hirshfeld surface analyses. In addition, the weak argentophilic interaction in Ag-I and Ag-II have been studied using quantum theory of atoms in molecules and natural bond orbital calculations. The electrochemical properties of the complexes have been investigated using cyclic voltammetry, where Cu-I and Cu-II exhibited two quasi-reversible waves, whereas Cu-III , Ag-I , Ag-II , and Ni-I exhibited only one quasi-reversible peak.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and studies on the interaction with albumin of a new silver(I) complex based on 2‐(4‐nitrobenzenesulfonamido)benzoic acid

In the present work, the two‐dimensional (2D) polymer poly[[μ₄‐2‐(4‐nitrobenzenesulfonamido)benzoato‐κ⁴O¹:O¹:O^1′:N⁶]silver(I)] (AgL), [Ag(C₁₃H₉N₂O₆S)]_n, was obtained from 2‐(4‐nitrobenzenesulfonamido)benzoic acid (HL), C₁₃H₁₀N₂O₆S. FT–IR, ¹H and ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectroscopic analyses were used to characterize both compounds. The crystal structures of HL and AgL were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. In the structure of HL, O—H…O hydrogen bonds between neighbouring molecules result in the formation of dimers, while the silver(I) complex shows polymerization associated with the O atoms of three distinct deprotonated ligands (L^?). Thus, the structure of the Ag complex can be considered as a coordination polymer consisting of a one‐dimensional linear chain, constructed by carboxylate bridging groups, running parallel to the b axis. Neighbouring polymeric chains are further bridged by Ag—C monohapto contacts, resulting in a 2D framework. Fingerprint analysis of the Hirshfeld surfaces show that O…H/H…O hydrogen bonds are responsible for the most significant contacts in the crystal packing of HL and AgL, followed by the H…H and O…C/C…O interactions. The Ag…Ag, Ag…O/O…Ag and Ag…C/C…Ag interactions in the Hirshfeld surface represent 12.1% of the total interactions in the crystal packing. Studies of the interactions of the compounds with human serum albumin (HSA) indicated that both HL and AgL interact with HSA.     

catena‐Poly­[[[μ‐pyrazine‐κ2N:N′‐disilver(I)]‐di‐μ‐pyrazine‐κ4N:N′] bis­(tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate) dihydrate]

The title compound, {[Ag₂(C₄H₄N₂)₃](CF₃SO₃)₂·2H₂O}_n, is a polymeric pyrazine–silver(I) complex. Each Ag^I ion is three‐coordinated by N atoms of three different pyrazine ligands, forming a T‐shaped coordination configuration. In the crystal structure, uncoordinated water mol­ecules are linked to tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate anions through intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. There are weaker Ag⋯O interactions involving the water and sulfonate O atoms.

Single X‐ray analysis reveals that compound 1 is a one‐dimensional (1D) supramolecular double chain structure constructed by the combination of coordination bonds, hydrogen bonds, weak Ag ··· O and argentophilic interactions, compound 2 is a two‐dimensional (2D) undulated layer structure constructed by coordination bonds, weak Ag ··· O and argentophilic interactions. Moreover, the photoluminescent properties of the two compounds were also investigated in the solid state at room temperature.

Crystal structure of bis(triphenylphosphine) bis(N,N′-dibutylthiourea)silver(I) nitrate

A mixed-ligand silver(I) complex of triphenylphosphine and N,N′-dibutylthiourea (Dbtu), [Ag(Ph₃P)₂(Dbtu)₂]NO₃, is prepared and its structure in the solid state is determined by X-ray crystallography. X-ray structure of this complex shows that it is mononuclear with the silver atom coordinated by two PPh₃ and two dibutylthiourea ligands adopting a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The crystal structure shows the formation of 1-D chains through intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between N-H of Dbtu and nitrate ions. The new complex is also characterized by IR and NMR (¹H and ³¹P) spectroscopy. The spectroscopic data are discussed in terms of the nature of bonding. A similar mixedligand complex is also prepared for tetramethylthiourea (Tmtu), but the structure of the resulting compound shows that it is a bis(phosphine) complex, [Ag(PPh₃)₂NO₃] rather than a mixed-ligand complex.     

Three silver(I) coordination polymers assembled from 2-sulfoterephthalic acid and N-donor ligands: syntheses, crystal structures, and luminescence properties

The reactions of silver nitrate with 2-sulfoisophthalic acid (H₃stp) in the presence of N-donor ligands produced three coordination polymers; [Ag₃(stp)(pyz)_0.5]_n (1), {[Ag₄(dpp)₄]·2(Hstp)·9H₂O}_n (2), and {[Ag(bpe)]₂[Ag₂(bpe)₂]₂·2(stp)·19H₂O}_n (3) [pyz = pyrazine, bpp = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)propane, bpe = 1,2-di(4-pyridyl)-ethylene]. The complexes have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, physico-chemical, and spectroscopic methods. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that complex 1 is a 2D silver carboxylate-sulfonate layered structure, in which the 2D layers are further linked by the N-donor atoms of pyz ligands into a 3D supramolecular structure. Complex 2 is an infinite 1D chain arrangement with the [Ag₂(dpp)₂]²⁺ unit in which weak Ag···Ag or Ag···O interactions extend the chains into 2D structures. Complex 3 has a 3D supramolecular structure constructed by hydrogen bonding, π–π stacking, and Ag···O interactions to link the ligands, metal atoms, and water molecules together. The luminescence properties of the complexes were investigated.     

A Set of phenyl sulfonate metal coordination complexes triggered Biginelli reaction for the high efficient synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones under solvent-free conditions

Three new metal coordination complexes, namely, [Co ( DPE )(H₂O)₄]( DPE )( BS )₂ ( 1 ), [Co ( DPE )₂(H₂O)₄]( ABS )₂ ( 2 ), [Co ( DPE )(H₂O)₄]( MBS )₂(CH₃OH)₂ ( 3 ) [ DPE = (E)-1,2-di (pyridin-4-yl) ethene, BS = phenyl sulfonic acid, ABS = p-aminobenzene sulfonic acid, MBS = p-methylbenzene sulfonic acid] were obtained under hydrothermal conditions. Complexes 1 - 3 were structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction and IR. Complexes 1 and 3 exhibit a one-dimensional chain structure, and complex 2 does a zero-dimensional one. These three complexes further generate a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture via strong hydrogen bonding interactions and packing interactions. These three metal coordination complexes show high catalytic performance for green synthesis of a variety of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones through the Biginelli reactions, which show several advantages such as excellent yields, short reaction times, eco-friendly synthesis conditions, and simple isolated workup procedure. Interestingly, the order of catalytic activities for these catalysts is the following: 3 > 1 > 2 , which can be ascribed to the acidities and hydrophobic interactions of phenyl sulfonate groups.     

A three-dimensional highly stable cobalt(II) metal–organic framework based on terephthalic acid: synthesis, crystal structure, thermal and physical properties

A metal?Corganic framework complex, [Co(??₃?Ctp)(??₂?pyz)] _n , where H₂tp?=?1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (terephthalic acid) and pyz?=?pyrazine, has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods, thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Each Co(II) center is surrounded by four carboxylate oxygen atoms from three tp ligands and two nitrogen atoms from two pyrazine ligands, giving a distorted octahedral geometry. The entire framework is made up of two-dimensional sheets of dicobalt ions linked via terephthalate ligands to form rectangles. The sheets are then linked into each other via the axial pyrazine ligands, forming an interlocked 3-D network, which is finally arranged as an ABAB interconnected pattern. Photoluminescence measurements for the polymer in the solid state show an emission at 414?nm, which suggests this complex as a potential blue-light material. The electrochemical behavior of a modified carbon paste electrode prepared from the complex has been studied by cyclic voltammetry, indicating quasi-reversible redox behavior.     

Two-dimensional supramolecular networks generated from weak AgCpy interactions: Synthesis, structural, thermal and fluorescence studies of silver(I) complexes of 5,5-diethylbarbiturato with pyridine-2-ylmethanol and 2,6-dimethoxypyridine

Two new silver(I) complexes [Ag(barb)(pym)]·H₂O (1) and [Ag(barb)(dmpy)]·1.5H₂O (2) (barb = 5,5-diethylbarbiturate, pym = pyridine-2-ylmethanol and dmpy = 2,6-dimethoxypyridine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. In both complexes, the silver(I) ions are linearly coordinated by the N atoms of a barb anion and a pym or a dmpy ligand, forming mononuclear species. The molecules of 1 and 2 are doubly bridged by N–HO hydrogen bonds involving the barb moieties and these hydrogen-bonded dimers are assembled into two-dimensional layered networks through weak AgC_py (η¹) interactions of ca. 3.3 Å. Additionally, the thermal and fluorescent properties of these complexes are also investigated.     

Hydrothermal synthesis,crystal structure and third-order nonlinear optical properties of a 3D coordination polymer containing 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenone-tetracarboxylate (BPTC) and pyrazine ligands

A mixed-ligand compound, [Ni₂(BPTC)(pyz)?·?2H₂O] _n (0.5H₂O) _n (BPTC?=?3,3′,4, 4′-benzophenone-tetracarboxylate, pyz?=?pyrazine), has been prepared hydrothermally by assembly of BPTC, NiCl₂·6H₂O and pyz. X-ray diffraction analysis of a single crystal reveals the three-dimensional framework assembled from pyz-pillared two-dimensional sheets. Three types of channels in one direction are established inside the structure. The third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties in DMF have been studied by Z-scan technique using an 8?ns laser at 532?nm. The results reveal that the new compound exhibits strong NLO absorption and self-focusing refractive performance (n ₂?=?2.7?×?10^?17?m²?W^?1).     

The inner‐salt zwitterion,the dihydrochloride dihydrate and the dimethyl sulfoxide disolvate of 3,6‐bis(pyridin‐2‐yl)pyrazine‐2,5‐dicarboxylic acid

In the inner‐salt zwitterion of 3,6‐bis(pyridin‐2‐yl)pyrazine‐2,5‐dicarboxylic acid, (I), namely 5‐carboxy‐3‐(pyridin‐1‐ium‐2‐yl)‐6‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)pyrazine‐2‐carboxylate, [C₁₆H₁₀N₄O₄, (Ia)], the pyrazine ring has a twist–boat conformation. The opposing pyridine and pyridinium rings are almost perpendicular to one another, with a dihedral angle of 80.24 (18)°, and are inclined to the pyrazine mean plane by 36.83 (17) and 43.74 (17)°, respectively. The carboxy and carboxylate groups are inclined to the mean plane of the pyrazine ring by 43.60 (17) and 45.46 (17)°, respectively. In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of double‐stranded chains propagating in the [010] direction. On treating (Ia) with aqueous 1 M HCl, the diprotonated dihydrate form 2,2′‐(3,6‐dicarboxypyrazine‐2,5‐diyl)bis(pyridin‐1‐ium) dichloride dihydrate [C₁₆H₁₂N₄O₄²⁺·2Cl⁻·2H₂O, (Ib)] was obtained. The cation lies about an inversion centre. The pyridinium rings and carboxy groups are inclined to the planar pyrazine ring by 55.53 (9) and 19.8 (2)°, respectively. In the crystal structure, the molecules are involved in N—H...Cl, O—H...O_water and O_water—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of chains propagating in the [010] direction. When (Ia) was recrystallized from dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), the DMSO disolvate 3,6‐bis(pyridin‐2‐yl)pyrazine‐2,5‐dicarboxylic acid dimethyl sulfoxide disolvate [C₁₆H₁₀N₄O₄·2C₂H₆OS, (Ic)] of (I) was obtained. Here, the molecule of (I) lies about an inversion centre and the pyridine rings are inclined to the planar pyrazine ring by only 23.59 (12)°. However, the carboxy groups are inclined to the pyrazine ring by 69.0 (3)°. In the crystal structure, the carboxy groups are linked to the DMSO molecules by O—H...O hydrogen bonds. In all three crystal structures, the presence of nonclassical hydrogen bonds gives rise to the formation of three‐dimensional supramolecular architectures.
