Metal(II)-promoted hydrolysis of pyridine-2-carbonitrile to pyridine-2-carboxylic acid. The structure of [Cu(pyridine-2-carboxylate)2] · 2H2O

Pyridine-2-carbonitrile (2-CNpy) undergoes Cu(II) or Co(II)-promoted hydrolysis to pyridine-2-carboxamide (piaH) and/or pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (pycH). The pathway of pycH formation depends on the presence of 2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol (AL¹) and on the central atom. In the absence of AL¹, Co(II) or Cu(II) ions mediate piaH formation under mild reaction conditions in the first hydrolytic step. Cu(II) ions assist in piaH transformation to pycH by subsequent reflux. In the presence of AL¹ and Co(II), a Co(II) complex containing pyoxaL¹ (2-(2-pyridinyl)-4,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2-oxazoline) is formed in the first stage; subsequent decomposition of pyoxaL¹ under the reflux yields pycH. Under similar conditions, no solid Cu(II) complex with pyoxaL¹ can be isolated, but a Cu(II) complex with coordinated pyc⁻ anions precipitates from the reaction mixture. The synthesis, spectral and magnetic properties of the complexes [Co(H₂O)₂ (piaH)₂]Cl₂, [Co(H₂O)₂(pyc)₂] · 2H₂O, [Cu(H₂O)₂(piaH)₂]Cl₂, [Cu(pyc)₂] and [Cu(pyc)₂] · 2H₂O, including the structure determination of the latter one, are described.     

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE,SPECTRAL AND MAGNETIC BEHAVIOR OF COPPER(II)(5-CHLOROSALICYLATO)2 (AQUA)2

Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of Cu(5-Clsal)₂(H₂O)₂ (5-Clsal = 5-chlorosalicylate) are reported. Characterization of the compound was based on elemental analysis, electronic and EPR spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurement over a temperature range 93–239 K.

An X-ray analysis of Cu(5-Clsal)₂(H₂O)₂ was carried out, showing a polymeric chain of copper(II) atoms bridged by pairs of water molecules with Cu-O(bridge) bond lengths of 1.970(2) and 2.718(2)Å. The coordination sphere about each copper(II) atom is completed (on the X-axis) by a trans-pair of unidentate 5-chlorosalicylate anions. The bridging oxygen atoms arrange a planar Cu₂O₂ rhombus. The relationship between degree of distortion and g-values from EPR spectra is also discussed.     

SYNTHESIS AND CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF OXAMIDATO-BRIDGED BINUCLEAR COPPER(II) COMPLEXES

Abstract

The compounds [Cu(oxpn)] (1), [(bpy)(H₂O)Cu(μ-cis-oxpn)Cu(H₂O)] · 2NO₃ · 2H₂O (2) and [(Him)(NO₃)Cu(μ-trans-oxpn)Cu(Him)(NO₃)] (3), where oxpn is the dianion of N,N′-bis(3-aminopropyl)oxamide, bpy is bipyridine and Him is imidazole, were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectra. Complex (2) was also studied by thermochemical analysis and its structure determined by X-ray crystallography. The structure of complex (2) consists of binuclear copper(II) molecules in which the copper(II) atoms are bridged by an oxamidato group in the cis conformation resulting a copper-copper distance of 5.21 Å. Both copper(II) ions are in square-pyramidal surroundings with almost coplanar basal planes and a water molecule occupying the apical positions. The N atoms of the oxamidato moiety are trigonal. Two lattice water molecules together with the two coordinated ones hydrogen bond with nitrate ions.     

SEVERAL COORDINATION MODES OF 5-AMINO-1,3,4-THIADIAZOLE-2-SULFONAMIDE (HATS) WITH Cu(II), Ni(II) AND Zn(II): MIMETIC TERNARY COMPLEXES OF CARBONIC ANHYDRASE-INHIBITOR

Abstract

The coordination properties of 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide (Hats) with Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) ions, are analyzed. Although the ligand presents several donor atoms, we have only observed three coordination behaviors: (i) as a monodentate ligand through the N_sulfonamido atom, (ii) as a bridging ligand linking the metal ions through the N_sulfonamido and N_thiadizole atoms and (iii) as a bridging ligand linking metal ions through the N and O atoms of the sulfonamidate group. It is noteworthy that coordination mode (iii) is observed for the first time in heterocyclic sulfonamides complexes. In addition, the conformation of the Hats as counter-ion is analyzed and compared with the conformations that the ligand adopts in metal complexes.

CHROMOTROPIC CHANGES OF Cu(II) AND Ni(II) COMPLEXES WITH N2O2 AND N3O2 SCHIFF-BASE LIGANDS IN THE SOLID PHASE

Abstract

Four new Schiff-base ligands have been prepared from the condensation of 3-formyl-4-hy-droxy-1,8-naphthyridin-2-one with different diamines and a triamine, H₂L_a-H₂L_d. Two series of Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with the four ligands were also prepared. The ligands and their metal complexes were characterized by chemical analyses, IR, Far-IR, electronic, ESR and mass spectra as well as magnetic measurements and X-ray diffraction patterns.

Different products for Ni(II) and Cu(II) were obtained in similar reactions with the same metal salt, depending on the nature of the ligand. Different geometries were also obtained depending on the counter anion of metal salt. Thus, violet square-planar Cu(II) complexes were obtained with Cu(OAc)₂. H₂O and green octahedral ones with CuCl₂. 2H₂O, except the reaction with ligand H₂L_d which gave only an octahedral product whether the anion was acetate, chloride or perchlorate. Electronic and ESR spectra were used to differentiate between the two geometries of the Cu(II) complexes. The green octahedral Cu(II) complexes undergo irreversible thermochromism to the violet square-planar complexes except the copper complex of the ligand H₂L_d which did not not show any color change and retained its octahedral geometry. Based on the magnetic moments and thermal analyses, only one Ni(II) complex of the Schiffbase ligand H₂L_c undergoes reversible thermochromism from green (octahedral) to red (squareplanar). The reverse change of the thermal product (red) to the parent complex (green) proceeded on exposure to atmospheric air for a few minutes. On the other hand, Ni(II) complexes of ligands H₂L_a and H₂L_b have stable square-planar geometry and all efforts to add other ligands such as H₂O or pyridine to these complexes failed to yield other products. The corresponding Cu(II) complexes were easily transformed to their octahedral geometry by adding H₂O or pyridine and heating.

SPECTRAL AND MAGNETIC STUDY OF COPPER(II) MEFANAMATES: CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF BIS(MEFANAMATO)DI(N,N-DIETHYLNICOTINAMIDE)DI(AQUA)COPPER(II)

Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of Cu(II) mefanamate (mef) compounds of composition Cu(mef)₂L (L = water, caffeine, or methyl-3-pyridylcarbamate) and Cu(mef)₂L₂ (L = 3-pyridylcarbinol, nicotinamide, N,N-diethylnicotinamide, 2,6-dimethanol pyridine or nicotine) is reported. Characterizations of the compounds were based on elemental analyses, electronic, infrared and EPR spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements over a temperature range (80–290 K). The spectral and magnetic properties of Cu(mef)₂L indicate the presence of Cu(II) dimers structurally similar to that of Cu(II) acetate monohydrate. All the Cu(mef)₂L₂ compounds possess octahedral stereochemistry about Cu(II) with differing tetragonal distortion.

An X-ray analysis of Cu(mef)₂(Et₂nia)₂(H₂O)₂was carried out, and it featured tetragonal bipyramidal geometry around the Cu(II) atom. The tetragonal plane is created by mefanamate anions bonded to the Cu(II) atom via the unidentate carboxylate oxygen atoms [Cu-0(2) = 1.936(3)Å] and the pyridine ring nitrogen atoms of the neutral ligand N, N-diethylnicotinamide [Cu-N(l) = 2.027(3)Å] in frans-positions. Axial water molecules [Cu-O(4) = 2.557(3)Å] complete the coordination sphere.     

SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURES OF DICHLOROTETRAKIS-(PHENYLTHIOUREA) CADMIUM(II) AND CATENA-BIS(THIOCYANATE) BIS(PHENYLTHIOUREA)CADMIUM(II)

Abstract

Two new cadmium(II) complexes with phenylthiourea (PTU), namely Cd(PTU)₄Cl₂ (1) and [Cd₂(NCS)₂(μ₂-SCN)₂(PTU)₂(μ₂-PTU)₂] _n (2), have been prepared and characterized structurally by X-ray diffaction. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, with a = 27.057(13), b = 8.108(3), c = 16.751(8) Å, β = 114.46°, V = 3345(3) ų, Z = 4. Complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, with a = 9.336(3), b = 14.686(5), c = 16.911(5) Å, α = 71.36(2), β = 84.31(2), γ = 72.470(10)°, V = 2095.0(12) ų Z = 4. The structural analysis shows that each metal atom in both the mononuclear complex 1 and polynuclear complex 2 is octahedrally coordinated by four sulfur atoms and two chloro ligands or two nitrogen atoms from the thiocyanate groups, respectively. The PTU ligand can serve as either a monodentate ligand or a μ₂-bridging ligand upon coordination to a metal atom.

The cyclic voltammogram of 1 represents quasi-reversible Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ pairs. In vitro antioxidant tests showed that 1 had significant antioxidant activity against superoxide and hydroxy radicals.     

STRUCTURES AND PROPERTIES OF COPPER(II) COMPLEXES WITH IMINODIACETATO AND IMIDAZOLE OR RELATED LIGANDS. I. CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF AQUA(IMIDAZOLE) (IMINODIACETATO)COPPER(II) MONOHYDRATE AND (IMIDAZOLE)(N-CARBOXYMETHYL-D,L-THREONINATO)COPPER(II)

Abstract

The crystal structures of two mixed-ligand copper(II) complexes having iminodiacetate(2-) (IDA) or N-carboxymethyl-D,L-threoninato(2-) ion (CMT) as terdentate ligands and imidazole (ImH) as an N-heterocyclic ligand are reported. Both compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system, space group Pbca with Z = 8. Aqua(imidazole)(iminodiacetato)copper(II) monohydrate (I,R = 0.065, R _w = 0.075) consists of H₂O molecules and [Cu(IDA)(ImH)(H₂O)] complex units in a hydrogen bonding network. The structure of imidazole(N-carboxymethyl)-D,L-threoninatocopper(II) (IV, R = 0.066, Rω 0.078) is built up of hydrogen bonded polynuclear chains. In both compounds the Cu(II) ion exhibits a flattened and distorted square-based pyramidal coordination, with a terdentate aminoacidate ion, IDA or CMT, and one ImH ligand at the base and H₂O (in I) or the oxygen atom of the OH side chain from one adjacent CMT ion (in IV) as the fifth apical ligand. The nearly coplanar conformation of the two five-membered chelate rings in I and IV is discussed in connection with the known structure of corresponding aquacomplexes (with H₂O instead of ImH) and the ability of terdentate aminoacids to give ternary Cu(II) complexes having two N-heterocyclic donors (2 ImH or one 2,2′-bipy) per Cu(II) atom.     

Methanolysis of Pyrazinecarbonitrile in the Coordination Sphere of Copper(II). The Crystal Structure of Dichlorobis(O-Methylpyrazinecarboximidate)-Copper(II) Dihydrate

Abstract

Reaction of pyrazinecarbonitrile (pz-CN) with copper(II) in methanol solution led to formation of solid complexes containing O-methylpyrazinecarboximidate (pz-C(NH)OMe) as a ligand. The analogous reaction of pyrazinecarbonitrile in ethanol led to isolation of solid complexes containing unchanged pz-CN. Six novel copper(II) compounds have been obtained under various reaction conditions. Their stereochemistry and the mode of ligand coordination has been determined by spectroscopic and conductometric measurements. Moreover, the crystal structure of the complex [CuCl₂(O-methylpyrazinecarboximidate)₂]. 2H₂O has been determined by X-ray diffraction techniques.     

Synthesis,characterization, and electrochemical study of two new macroacyclic Schiff bases and their copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes

Two new potentially octadentate N₂O₆ Schiff-base ligands 2-((E)-(2-(2-(2-((E)-2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylideneamino)phenoxy)phenoxy)phenylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol H₂L¹ and 2-((E)-(2-(2-(2-((E)-2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylideneamino)phenoxy)-4-tert-butylphenoxy)phenylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol H₂L² were prepared from the reaction of O-Vaniline with 1,2-bis(2′-aminophenoxy)benzene or 1,2-bis(2′-aminophenoxy)-4-t-butylbenzene, respectively. Reactions of H₂L¹ and H₂L² with copper(II) and zinc(II) salts in methanol in the presence of N(Et)₃ gave neutral [CuL¹]?·?0.5CH₂Cl₂, [CuL²], [ZnL¹]?·?0.5CH₂Cl₂, and [ZnL²] complexes. The complexes were characterized by IR spectra, elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, ESI–MS spectra, molar conductance (Λ_m), UV-Vis spectra and, in the case of [ZnL¹]?·?0.5CH₂Cl₂ and [ZnL²], with ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR. The crystal structure of [ZnL¹]?·?0.5CH₂Cl₂ has also been determined showing the metal ion in a highly distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. The electrochemical behavior of H₂L² and its Cu(II) complex, [CuL²], was studied and the formation constant of [CuL²] was evaluated using cyclic voltammetry. The logarithm value of formation constant of [CuL²] is 21.9.
