Investigation of complexes of zinc(II) and cadmium(II)DI-n-butyldithiocarbamates with 2,2′-bipyridyl

A new mixed-ligand complex, Cd(S₂CN(C₄H₉)_{2 2})₂(2,2′-Bipy), was synthesized. A polycrystal X-ray diffraction analysis was performed (DRON-3M and DRON-UM1 diffractometers, CuK_α radiation, Ni filter) and the crystal structure was determined [Enraf-Nonius CAD-4 automatic diffractometer, MoK_α radiation, 2440 nonzero independent reflections, 153 refined structural parameters, R is 0.11 for I>2σ(I)]. Crystal data for C₂₈H₄₄CdN₄S₄ : a = 28.716(4), b = 6.848(6), c = 17.188(2) Å, space group Pcca, V-3380.2(7) ų, Z = 4, M = 679.42, dcaU.= 1.335 g/cm3. The structure consists of monomeric molecules in which the cadmium atom has a distorted octahedral environment. The polycrystal diffraction analysis revealed that the complex is isostructural with the defined complex Zn(S₂CN(C₄Hg)₂)₂(2,2′-Bipy). A crystal-chemical search on metal dialkyldithiocarbamates in the Cambridge Structural Database was accomplished and isostructural pairs of Zn and Cd metal complexes were found.     

ZnII and HgII complexes of 2,2′-diamino-4,4′-bis(1,3-thiazole) (DABTZ), spectroscopic,thermal and structural studies

New zinc(II) and mercury(II) complexes of 2,2′-diamino-4,4′-bis(1,3-thiazole) (DABTZ), [M(DABTZ)(CH₃COO)₂], have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-, ¹H NMR-, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and studied by thermal analysis and X-ray crystallography. The structural characterization of the [Zn(DABTZ)(CH₃COO)₂] complex shows the complex to be a monomer and the Zn coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of the “DABTZ” ligand and four oxygen atoms of the acetate anions.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Cadmium(II) Complex with 2,2′-diamino-4,4′-bis-1,3-thiazole

Crystals of the title complex with diaminobithiazole (DABT) were obtained by a solution diffusion method. X-ray diffraction analysis shows the complex to be monoclinic, space group P2₁/c with cell dimensions a=11.684(2), b=13.625(2), c=14.859(1) Å and β=109.970(7)°; R=0.026. The Cd(II) atom lies in a distorted octahedral environment with two DABT and two Cl ligands in a cis arrangement. The average internal dihedral angle of 9.3° between thiazole rings of DABT shows the twisted structure of the ligand in the complex. The Cd(II) atom deviates by some -0.570 Å from the mean plane of the thiazole ring containing N(4), but the Cd-N(4) bond is the shortest among four Cd-N bonds in the structure. Intramolecular H-bonds between Cl atoms and amino groups stabilize the cis-configuration of the complex.     

Cadmium(II) complexes containing 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole ligand: synthesis,characterization, and crystal structure

Mononuclear and coordination polymer compounds of 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole (dm4bt) ligand have been prepared by metallation of dm4bt with Cd(NO₃)₂ · 4H₂O and CdCl₂ · H₂O. The compounds were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. The structural study of [Cd(dm4bt)₂(NO₃)₂] · H₂O (1) shows that the complex is a monomeric seven-coordinate (CdN₄O₃) cadmium(II)-bithiazole system with two bidentate dm4bt and mono and bidentate nitrates. The structure of [Cd(dm4bt)Cl₂] _n (2) is a distorted octahedral environment around the cadmium(II) (CdN₂Cl₄) forming a 1-D coordination polymer as a result of bridging by two chlorides and 2-D structure from π–π stacking interactions.     

Synthesis,characterization, and crystal structure determination of Cu(II) coordination compounds with 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole

[{CuCl(dm4bt)}₂ μ-Cl)₂] (1) (dm4bt = 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole) was prepared from the reaction of CuCl₂ · 2H₂O with 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole in methanol; [Cu(dm4bt)₂NO₃](NO₃) (2) was prepared from the reaction of Cu(NO₃)₂ · 3H₂O with 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole in methanol. Both complexes were characterized by IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, and single-crystal structure. The structure of 1 consists of centrosymmetric dimeric [{CuCl(dm4bt)}(μ-Cl)], in which two chloro ligands bridge the coppers forming a four-membered ring; a terminal chloride and a bidentate chelating bithiazole complete five coordination at each Cu(II) in a highly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The mononuclear structure 2 consists of a Cu(II), two 2,2′-dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazoles, one monodentate nitrate and one uncoordinated nitrate in a highly distorted square pyramid.     

Structural characterization of copper (II) tetradecanoate with 2,2′-bipyridine and 4,4′-bipyridine to study magnetic properties

This paper presents synthesis, structural characterization and spintronic applications of copper (II) tetradecanoate derived magnetic complexes. The complexes were prepared by a chemical reaction between [Cu₂(CH₃(CH₂)₁₂COO)₄](EtOH)₂ and 2,2′-bipyridine-4,4′-bipyridine ligands respectively. The complexes were further reacted between the product of the first reaction and 4,4′-bipyridine-2,2′-bipyridine respectively. The structural characterization techniques included elemental analysis, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Ultra-violet–Visible (UV–Vis) spectroscopy, polarized optical microscopy, magnetic moment and thermogravimetric analysis. The structural and characterization results suggested that the synthesized complexes were binuclear and mononuclear covalent complexes of copper(II) with structural formulas [Cu₂(η²-(OOCR)₄](4,4′-bpy)2H₂O] and [Cu(η¹-(OOCR)₂(2,2′-bpy) (4,4′-bpy)] respectively.     

4,4′-Bipyridine complexes of molybdenum(II) and tungsten(II)

Treatment of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with two equivalents of 4,4-bipyridine (4,4-bipy) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature gave the MeCN displaced products, [MI₂(CO)₃(4,4-bipy-N)₂] (1) and (2). Equimolar amounts of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] and L (L = PPh₃, AsPh₃ or SbPh₃) react to give [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)L], which when reacted in situ with 4,4-bipy yield the new complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃(4,4-bipy-N)L] (3)–(8). Reaction of equimolar quantities of [WI₂(CO)(NCMe)( ²-RC₂R)₂] (R = Me or Ph) and 4,4-bipy gave the new bis(alkyne) complexes, [WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N)( ²-RC₂R)₂] (9) and (10). Treatment of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with two equivalents of (9) or (10) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature affords the bimetallic complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃{WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N,N)( ²-RC₂R)₂}₂] (11)–(14). Equimolar quantities of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)(PPh₃)] (prepared in situ) and (9) or (10), react to give the 4,4-bipy-bridged complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃{WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N,N)( ²-RC₂R)₂}(PPh₃)] (15)–(18). All the new complexes, (1)–(18) were characterised by elemental analysis (C, H and N), i.r. and ¹H-n.m.r. spectroscopy.     

Synthesis,characterisation and electrochemical study of 4,4′-bis(salicylideneimino) diphenylethane and its complexes with cobalt(II), copper(II) and cadmium(II)

We have prepared and characterised a new series of metal complexes obtained from 4,4-bis(salicylideneimino)diphenylethane (saldipH₂) and cobalt(II), copper(II) and cadmium(II) chlorides. In every case, the coordinating atoms are N and O. However, each compound has its own structure:[Co(saldip)]·2 H₂O is monomeric and a mononuclear species, [Cu₂(saldip)₂(H₂O)] is a binuclear complex and finally the cadmium complex is formulated as:[(CdCl₂)₂(saldipH₂)]·CdCl₂. An electrochemical study (cyclic voltammetry) indicates that the reduction, as well as the oxidation, of copper in [Cu₂(saldip)₂(H₂O)] proceeds in two steps. For the reduction of the two other complexes, two steps are indicated out: the first is attributed to the reduction of the metal and the second to the reduction of the coordinated ligands.     

Solution equilibria of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes with 2,2′-bipyridine in N,N-dimethylacetamide at 25°C

Complexation of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) ions with 2,2-bipyridine (bpy) are studied in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) by calorimetry. Formation constants, enthalpies, and entropies of five mononuclear complexes, [Zn(bpy)_n]²⁺ (n=1–3) and [Cd(bpy)_n]²⁺ (n=1,2), are determined, and compared with the corresponding values in an analogous but less bulky solvent, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The zinc complexes are more stable and the formation is more exothermic in DMA than in DMF, whereas the solvent effect on the cadmium complexes are rather small. A largely positive value of the enthalpy of transfer of Zn²⁺ from DMF to DMA shows that the greater stability of the zinc complexes in DMA is due to the weaker solvation of the metal ion, which is caused by the steric hindrance of DMA molecules. The transfer enthalpies become smaller in the order Zn²⁺>[Zn(bpy)]²⁺>[Zn(bpy)₂]²⁺>[Zn(bpy)₃]²⁺ and dictate gradual relaxation of the steric effect in the complexes. On the other hand, the transfer enthalpies of Cd²⁺ and its complexes are all small, indicating that the hindrance is insignificant in the vicinity of this larger cation.

Infinite 1D water chains present in complexes of Co(II) and Zn(II) with 4,4′,6,6′-tetramethyl-2,2′-bipyrimidine

Two new transition metal complexes [Co(tmbpm)Cl₂(H₂O)]·2H₂O (1) and [Zn(tmbpm)Cl₂]·2H₂O (2) (where tmbpm = 4,4′,6,6′-tetramethyl-2,2′-bipyrimidine) are synthesized and characterized by IR and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The tmbpm adopts chelating coordination mode in the two mononuclear complexes. Both 1 and 2 form 2D supramolecular structures containing an infinite 1D water chain through hydrogen bonds.     

Coordination geometries and crystal structures of cadmium(II) complexes with a new amino alcohol (NN′O) ligand

The new ligand 2-(2-(2-hydroxyethylamino)ethylamino)cyclohexanol, (HEAC), was prepared under microwave conditions through ring opening of cyclohexene oxide with 2-(2-amino-ethylamino)ethanol. Its cadmium(II) complexes [Cd₂(HEAC)₂(μ-Cl)₂Cl₂] (1) and [Cd(HEAC)₂][CdI₄] (2) were identified by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, ¹H NMR spectroscopies, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. HEAC formed 1?:?1 M?:?L complexes with cadmium chloride and cadmium iodide. Complex 1 crystallized as a dimer with two asymmetrically bound bridging Cl^? and a terminally coordinated Cl^? on each metal. The geometry around the cadmiums in 1 with four five-membered chelate rings and four Cl^? ligands is distorted octahedral for each Cd(II). The cyclohexanol OH of each ligand forms intramolecular hydrogen bonds. In 2, the coordination numbers for cadmium in [Cd(HEAC)₂]²⁺ and [CdI₄]^2? moieties are six and four, respectively. In [Cd(HEAC)₂]²⁺ each ligand coordinates through two N- and one O-donors, leading to a distorted octahedral geometry. The geometry of [CdI₄]^2? in 2 is slightly distorted tetrahedral. The protonation equilibrium constants of the two secondary amino groups in HEAC, determined by pH-potentiometry, were 6.26 and 9.26, respectively, at 25°C. Stability constants for this ligand with Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) (1?:?1 M?:?L), determined by glass-electrode potentiometry, were 7.13, 10.50, and 5.42, respectively.     

Photochemical Behavior of Platinum(II) and Palladium(II) Complexes of 4,4′-Dimethyl-2,2′-Bipyridine

Several mixed-ligand complexes of formula [MX 2 (MBPY)] {where M is Pd(II) or Pt(II); X is Cl m , I m , N 3 m or NO 2 m and MBPY is 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine} have been prepared. The UV-Vis spectra of these complexes were found to show a low-lying MLCT band and on irradiation at the MLCT band these complexes sensitize the oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol (XH) in N , N -dimethylformamide (DMF) to 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinoloxy free radical (XO). This photo-oxidation reaction involves singlet molecular oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) as an intermediate and its presence was confirmed by quenching studies using bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) [Ni(DDTC) 2 ], a well-known 1 O 2 quencher. The ability of the complexes to photosensitize the above photo-oxidation reaction follows the order: [Pt ( N 3 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 2 ) ～ [Pt ( NO 2 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 3 ) > [PtCl 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 4 ) > [PtI 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 1 ) > [Pd ( NO 2 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 7 ) ～ [Pd ( N 3 ) 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 6 ) > [PdCl 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 8 ) > [PdI 2 ( MBPY ) ] ( 5 ), which reflects the nature of the metal ion and the nature of the ligands present in the complexes.     

Structural characterization,photophysical and BSA binding interaction studies of 4,4′-bis(benzimidazolyl)-2,2′-bipyridine

The title compound is synthesized from the precursors 1,2-diaminobenzene and 2,2′-bipyridine-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid (dcbpy) and characterized using ESI-Mass, ¹H NMR, FT-IR and single crystal X-ray analysis. We are the first to report the crystal structure of the 4,4′-bis(benzimidazolyl)-2,2′-bipyridine (bimbpy) ligand. The photophysical properties of the compound in dimethyl sulfoxide and in the aqueous medium are studied. The interaction studies of bimbpy with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were performed with the fluorescence technique and it strongly binds with BSA.     

Syntheses,crystal structures and fluorescent properties of two 4,4′-dipyridylsulfide based zinc(II) and cadmium(II) helical complexes

Two allomeric helical coordination polymers, {[Zn(4,4′-dps)₂(HSSA)(H₂O)₂] · 3(H₂O)} _n (1) and {[Cd(4,4′-dps)₂(HSSA)(H₂O)₂] · 3(H₂O)} _n (2) (4,4′-dps = 4,4′-dipyridylsulfide, H₃SSA = 5-sulfosalicylic acid), have been synthesized by similar experimental methods and characterized by elemental analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and fluorescence spectra. Both crystallize in monoclinic system, space group P₂1/n, with a = 11.7947(13) Å, b = 13.7475(15) Å, c = 20.183(2) Å, and Z = 4 for 1 and a = 11.940(7) Å, b = 14.068(8) Å, c = 20.323(12) Å, and Z = 4 for 2. In both complexes, the metal (Zn^II for 1 and Cd^II for 2) are six-coordinate with a N₃O₃ donor set in a distorted octahedron. Half of the 4,4′-dps are μ ₂-bridging, linking adjacent metal centers and forming P₂1/n dimensional helical structures along the b-axis. Fluorescence measurements show that 1 and 2 have medium fluorescent emission at 402 and 405 nm, respectively.     

Two new 1D cadmium(II) azido complexes: catina-Poly[di-μ1,1-azido(2,2′-bipyridyl)cadmium(II)] and a new polymorph of catina-Poly[di-μ1,1-azido (2-acetylpyridine)cadmium(II)]

Two new cadmium(II) azido complexes, [Cd(2,2′-bipy)(N₃)₂]_n (1) and [Cd(2-acpy)(N₃)₂]_n (2) (2,2′-bipy?=?2,2′-bipyridyl and 2-acpy?=?2-acetylpyridine), have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The coordination environment of the central cadmium atom is distorted octahedral (MN₆) in 1 and (MN₅O) in 2, with one-dimensional chains formed through Cd₂N₂ units and alternatively chelating N,N′-bipyridyl or N,O-2-acetylpyridine groups. The central Cd(II) ion is coordinated to two nitrogen atoms of a chelating bipyridyl group or one nitrogen atom and one acetyl oxygen of 2-acetylpyridine and four nitrogen atoms of four different end-on bridging (μ_1,1-N₃) groups. Chains in the c direction in 1 are stabilized in b direction by π–π interactions involving the aromatic rings of bipyridyl ligands. IR and NMR spectra of the two complexes are reported.     

Structural and thermal properties of rare earth complexes with 2,2′-biphenyldicarboxylic acid

Rare earth complexes with 2,2′-biphenyldicarboxylic acid (diphenic acid = H₂dpa) were obtained as hydrated precipitates of the general formula Ln₂(C₁₄H₈O₄)₃∙nH₂O, where n = 3 for the of Y(III) and Ce(III)–Er(III) and n = 6 for La(III), Tm(III), Yb(III) and Lu(III) complexes. On heating in air atmosphere complexes lose all water molecules in the temperature range 30–210 °C in one step and form anhydrous compounds, which are stable up to 315–370 °C. During further heating they decompose to oxides. The trihydrated compounds are crystalline powders whereas the hexahydrated are amorphous solids. The trihydrated complexes crystallize in the monoclinic (Pr(III) and Ce(III) complexes) and triclinic (Y(III) and Nd(III)–Er(III) complexes) crystal systems.     

Copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) coordination polymers with 2-methylglutarato and 4,4′-dipyridyldisulfide

Three new coordination polymers of copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II), Cu(H₂O)(Dpds)(2-MGA) (I), [Zn(Dpds)(2-MGA)] · 1.25H₂O (II) and [Cd(H₂O)(Dpds)(2-MGA)] · 0.25H₂O (III) (Dpds = 4,4′-dipyridyldisulfide, H₂MGA = (RS)-2-methyl glutaric acid), have been synthesized and characteried by X-ray single crystal structure determination. The Cu atoms in I are alternately bridged by Dpds ligands and 2-methylglutarato ligands to generate 1D chain. The resulted chains are assembled via S...S weak interactions into 2D layers, which are through twofold 2D parallel/2D parallel mode inclined interpenetration to induce 3D supramolecular architecture. In II, the ZnN₂O₂ tetrahedras are bridged by 2-MGA anion and Dpds ligands to form 2D (4,4) networks, which are assembled via hydrogen bonds to 3D supramolecular architecture. The centrosymmetric binuclear units Cd₂(2-MGA)₂ in III are bridged by Dpds ligands to form 1D repeated rhomboids chains, which are interlinked via S...S weak interactions into 2D layer, and the resulting 2D sheets are inclined parallel into 3D network.
