Thermodynamic study of the interaction of Co(II)-Schiff base complexes with phosphines

The equilibrium constants and the thermodynamic parameters for the interaction of CoL^x (L¹ = 5-OMe-salabza, L² = salabza, L³ = 5-Br-salabza and L⁴ = 5-NO₂-salabza) as acceptors, with phosphines (PBu₃, PPh₂Me) as donors in dichloromethane were studied. This was performed by using UV-Vis spectrophotometry titration for 1:1 adduct formation of the selected complexes at various temperatures (T = 283–298 K). The trend of the adduct formation of the Co(II) complexes with a given phosphine donor decreases as CoL¹ > CoL² > CoL³ > CoL⁴. The stability of the resulting adducts with different Co(II)-schiff base complexes found to decrease in the order PBu₃ > PPh₂Me.     

Extension de la méthode du «logarithme limite» [1] pour la détermination de la composition et de la constante de stabilité des complexes

A study of the conditions of applicability to weak complexes of the relation log x = v log V + log (β_v,cC^c) = f(logV), where V and C are variable and constant total concentrations of the constituants of the complexe, shows that for conditions other than C ? V, another function φ(log V) accounts better for the formation equilibrium of the complexe. From f(log V) and φ (log V) a relation t(log V) is derived whose simple analysis permits the determination of the composition and the stability constant of weak complexes. Applications are given to 1:1, 1:2, 2:2 composition.     

Thermochemistry of molecular complexes. 5. Molecular complexes of I2 with ethylbenzenes andn-alkylbenzenes

The enthalpies of formation and equilibrium constants are reported for molecular complexes of I₂ with five ethylbenzene and ninen-alkylbenzene donor molecules in CCl₄. The wavelength of maximum absorbance for each complex is also reported. For ethylbenzene donor molecules, the formation enthalpy and equilibrium constant for the complexes depend strongly on the number of ethyl groups attached to the benzene ring, but only weakly on the position of the groups. For then-alkylbenzene donor molecules, both the formation enthalpy and equilibrium constant for complex formation are indenpendent of the length of the alkyl chain. These results are consistent with previous observations on weak complexes of I₂ with substituted benzene donors.     

Intermolecular charge-transfer complexes between chlorothiazide antihypertensive drug against iodine sigma and picric acid pi acceptors: DFT and molecular docking interaction study with Covid-19 protease

The interaction of chlorothiazide (CH) as donor (D) with picric acid (PA) and iodine (I₂) as π- and σ-acceptors (A), respectively, gives charge-transfer (CT) complexes as a final products. The reaction of donor and acceptors were studied spectrophotometrically. The complexes are generally of the n-π* and n-σ* types, with the ground state wave function primarily characterized by the non-bonding structure. For the micro determination of chlorothiazide using picric acid and iodine as acceptors, the ideal conditions encouraging the formation of complexes are thoroughly explored. It was discovered that the stoichiometry of the molecular structure is 1:1 (D:A). The equilibrium constant and the molar extinction coefficient were calculated using Benesi-Hildebrand and its modifications. DFT/TD-DFT calculations with B3LYP/LanL2DZ and 6-311G++ level of theory were used to provide comparable theoretical data along with electronic energy gap of HOMO→LUMO. Molecular docking calculations have been performed between CT complexes and Covid-19 protease (6LU7) to study the interaction between them and their inhibitory effect.     

Composés d'addition des halogénures de niobium(V) et de tantale(V). V. Stabilité relative des composés des chlorures avec quelques oxydes et sulfures organiques

The adducts of niobium(V) and tantalum(V) chlorides with some aliphatic and cyclic oxides and sulfides, studied by NMR. spectroscopy in CHCl₃, are found to have 1:1 stoechiometry, at room temperature and lower. In the thioxane complex TaCl₅ · C₄H₈OS two species are present with the ligand coordinated by the sulfur atom or by the oxygen atom, respectively, in a proportion which has been determined. The thioxane adduct of niobium(V) chloride, however, is preferentially coordinated by the sulfur atom. There is also evidence for the species 2MCl₅ · C₄H₈OS. The relative basicity of each donor atom in dioxane, thioxane and dithiane is calculated and discussed. In contrast to the nitrile adducts, whose stability was found earlier to be controlled by inductive factors, the steric factors are more important for the ether and sulfide adducts: MCl₅ · Me₂X is more stable than the corresponding MCl₅ · Et₂X (M = Nb, Ta; X = O, S). Both niobium(V) and tantalum(V) chlorides have a soft behaviour, but NbCl₅ is a weaker Lewis acid than TaCl₅ and shows also a softer behaviour.     

Theoretical investigation of the hydrogen bond interactions of methanol and dimethylamine with hydrazone and its derivatives

The interactions between hydrogen bond donors (dimethylamine (DMA) and methanol (MeOH)) and acceptors (formaldehyde dimethylhydrazone, acetaldehyde N,N-dimethylhydrazone and N-nitrosodimethylamine) were theoretically investigated by DFT. The hydrogen bonding interactions were found on several bonding sites of the acceptors. The important properties of structure, binding energy, enthalpy of formation, Gibbs free energy of formation and equilibrium constant were investigated. Compared to the monomer, the DMA complexes show a small red shift of the NH-stretching vibrational transition but a significantly intensity enhancement. On the other hand, the MeOH complexes have a large red shift but a relatively small intensity enhancement of the OH-stretching transition. Atoms-in-molecules analysis revealed that several types of hydrogen bond interaction were present in the complexes. Since natural bond orbital analysis overestimated the effect of charge transfer, the more reliable localized molecular orbital energy decomposition analysis was performed and it shows that the major contribution to the total interaction energy is the electrostatic interaction. All these parameters suggest that the hydrogen bond donor strength of MeOH is substantially greater than DMA.

     

Etude de composés d'addition des acides de Lewis XXVIII. Constantes de Hammett et vibration carbonyle des composés formés par TiCl4 et SbCl5 avec des chlorures de benzoyle parasubstitués

Thermodynamics of Cobalt(III) Schiff base complexes in various solvents

The electronic and steric effects of some Schiff bases and the solvent on the thermodynamic parameters of the pentacoordinate Co(III) Schiff base complexes were studied. The formation constants and the thermodynamic parameters were measured spectrophotometrically for 1:1 adduct formation of the complexes as acceptors with tributylphosphine (PBu₃) as donor, in some solvents (acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, butanol, ethanol and N,N-dimethylformamide) in constant ionic strength (I = 0.01 M, sodium perchlorate) and at various temperatures. The trend of the reactivity of the pentacoordinate cobalt(III) Schiff base complexes toward tributylphosphine according to the solvent is as follows: acetonitrile > tetrahydrofuran > butanol > ethanol > N,N-dimethylformamide. The trend of the reactivity of pentacoordinate cobalt(III) Schiff base complexes toward the donor in a given solvent according to the equatorial Schiff base is as follows: BBE > BAE > Salen.     

Etude des composés d'addition des acides de LEWIS XXIX. Composés d'addition entre acides aromatiques et SbCl5, AlCl3, TiCl4, SnCl4 ou ZnCl2

The adducts of benzoic, p-toluic, mesitoic and cinnamic acids with SbCl₅, AlCl₃, TiCl₄, SnCl₄ and ZnCl₂ have been prepared, and the IR. absorption spectra of the compounds, in the solid state or in solution in CCl₄, studied. The lowering of the carbonyl frequency shows that the acceptor is linked by a dative bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom acting as donor. A calculation, by the Wilson GF method, of force constants and their contributions in potential energy of vibration for monomeric benzoïc acid and its adduct with TiCl₄ confirmed that the carbonyl stretching force constant, and therefore the C?O bond order, is lowered by the formation of the adducts.     

Spectroscopic studies of charge transfer complexes of meso‐tetra‐p‐tolylporphyrin and its zinc complex with some aromatic nitro acceptors in different organic solvents

The charge transfer complex (CTC) formation of 5,10,15,20‐tetra(p‐tolyl)porphyrin (TTP) and zinc 5,10,15,20‐tetra(p‐tolyl)porphyrin with some aromatic nitro acceptors such as 2,4,6‐trinitrophenol (picric acid), 3,5‐dinitrosalicylic acid, 3,5‐dinitrobenzoic acid (DNB) and 2,4‐dinitrophenol (DNP) was studied spectrophotometrically in different organic solvents at different temperatures. The spectrophotometric titration, Job's and straight line methods indicated the formation of 1:1 CTCs. The values of the equilibrium constant (K_CT) and molar extinction coefficient (ε_CT) were calculated for each complex. The ionization potential of the donors and the dissociation energy of the charge transfer excited state for the CTC in different solvents was also determined and was found to be constant. The spectroscopic and thermodynamic properties were observed to be sensitive to the electron affinity of the acceptors and the nature of the solvent. No CT band was observed between Zn‐TTP as donor and DNP or DNB as acceptors in various organic solvents at different temperature. Bimolecular reactions between singlet excited TTP (¹TTP*) and the acceptors were investigated in solvents with various polarities. A new emission band was observed. The fluorescence intensity of the donor band decreased with increasing the concentration of the acceptor accompanied by an increase in the intensity of the new emission. The new emission of the CTCs can be interpreted as a CT excited complex (exciplex). Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Composés d'addition des halogénures de niobium(V) et de tantale(V): VI. Réactions d'échange des composés du chlorure de niobium(V) avec quelques nitriles

The ligand exchange reactions NbCl₅·?N + RCN* ? NbCl₅ · RCN* + RCN are studied by NMR. spectroscopy for R = Me₃C, Me, FCH₂, CICH₂, BrCH₂, ICH₂. The reaction is of zero order in RCN and of first order in NbCl₅ · RCN and thus a dissociative mechanism is suggested for all the ligands studied. The enthalpies and entropies of activation are determined over 50° to 90° temperature ranges. There is a linear correlation between ΔG≠ and the free enthalpy of formation of NbCl₅ RCN. However this correlation is shown to hold only for series of adducts having the same donor group.     

Preparation and Spectroscopic Studies of Charge-Transfer Complexes of Thiamine Hydrochloride with Different Electron Acceptor

Abstract—Electronic interactions associated with charge transfer complexes formation of iodine, chloranilic acid (H₂CA) and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) with vitamin B1 have been studied spectrophotometrically. The accumulated data indicated formation of CT-complexes of the general formula [(VB1)(acceptor) _n ], (n = 1 or 2). The 1 : 2 and 1 : 1 donor: acceptor molar ratios were calculated on the basis of elemental analysis and photometric titrations. The solid complexes were prepared and characterized by their conductivity, UV-Vis, IR, and ¹H NMR spectra, and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA, DTG). The characteristic physical constants (K_CT, ε_CT, μ, ΔG, I_p, f, E_CT) of the formed CT-complexes were determined to be strongly dependent on nature of the electron acceptors.

     

Charge‐transfer character of halogen bonding: Molecular structures and electronic spectroscopy of carbon tetrabromide and bromoform complexes with organic σ‐ and π‐donors

Carbon tetrabromide and bromoform are employed as prototypical electron acceptors to demonstrate the charge‐transfer nature of various intermolecular complexes with three different structural types of electron donors represented by (1) halide and pseudohalide anions, (2) aromatic (π‐bonding) hydrocarbons, and (3) aromatics with (n‐bonding) oxygen or nitrogen centers. UV–Vis spectroscopy identifies the electronic transition inherent to such [1:1] complexes; and their Mulliken correlation with the donor/acceptor strength verifies the relevant charge‐transfer character. X‐ray crystallography of CBr₄/HCBr₃ complexes with different types of donors establishes the principal structural features of halogen bonding. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

There is no significant stereochemical influence of the Sb(III) lone pair.     

Substitutions homolytiques intramoléculaires. 17. Décomposition de peroxydes de ϵ-alcényle et de t-butyle. Accès à des tétrahydropyranes substitués

The induced decomposition of t-butyl hex-5-enyl peroxide in good hydrogen donor solvents led to 2-substitude tetrahydropyrans and adduct peroxides. The presence of substituents on the hexenyl moinety influenced seriously the relative ratio of the heterocycle and the adduct peroxide.     

Stabilité dans le méthanol et propriétés thermodynamiques de transfert des cryptates de certains cations de transition et de métaux lourds

Stability in Methanol and Thermodynamic Transfer Properties of the Cryptates of some Transition Cations and Heavy Metals The nature and stability of the macrocyclic and macrobicyclic complexes of Ag⁺, Cd²⁺, and Pb²⁺ (Mⁿ⁺) with 21, 22, 211, 221 and 222 in anhydrous methanol 0.05M in Et₄N⁺ClO^?₄, at 25° (see Scheme) have been determined by potentiometry and spectrophotometry. Binuclear complexes M₂L²ⁿ⁺ have been observed in all cases, besides the mononuclear MLⁿ⁺ complexes. The macrobicyclic 1:1 complexes MLⁿ⁺ exhibit an important ‘cryptate effect’ with Mⁿ⁺=Ag⁺, Pb²⁺ and Cd²⁺, but not with Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺; their stability is in all cases maximum with 221. The applicability to our results of the recent extrathermodynamic hypothesis involving MLⁿ⁺ cryptates is examined.     

Molecular complexes of crown ethers. part 2: Complexes between crown ethers and π acceptors

The intermolecular charge transfer (CT) complexes of four crown ethers (CE), viz. B15C5, B18C6, DB18C6 and DB24C8 (as donors), and three acceptors, i.e. tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) and chloranil were studied in the UV-Visible region in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) at 298.2 K. Solid complexes were also prepared and the ratio of the donor to the acceptor was 1:1. Results indicate that the _max of the CT band decreases whileK _c (formation equilibrium constant) increases following the systematic change of the electron affinity of the acceptors. TheK _c values suggest that the phenyl group in CE plays a major role in the formation of a CT complex.     

Spectrophotometric and spectroscopic studies of complexation of 8-hydroxyquinoline with π acceptor metadinitrobenzene in different polar solvents

The complexation of electron donor–acceptor complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline (8HQ) and metadinitrobenzene (MNB) have been studied spectrophotometrically and thermodynamically in different polar solvent at room temperature. A new absorption band due to charge transfer (CT) transition is observed in the visible region. A new theoretical model has been developed which take into account the interaction between electronic subsystem of 8HQ and MNB. The results indicate the extent of charge transfer complexes (CTCs) formation to be more in less polar solvents. Stoichiometry of the complex was found to be 1:1 by straight line method and ¹H NMR between donor and acceptor at the maximum absorption bands. Ionization potential (I_D) and resonance energy (R_N) were determined from the CT transition energy in different solvents. The formation constants of the complexes were determined in different polar solvents from which ΔG° formation of the complexes was estimated and also extinction coefficient of the charge transfer complex (CTC) was calculated. Oscillator strength, transition dipole strengths and maximum wavelength of the CTC (λ_CT) in various solvents and IR spectra of the CTC have also been discussed. It has been observed that all parameters described above changed with change in polarity and concentration of donor.     

Charge transfer complexes of N-substituted 2-pyrrolidinones

The complex formation of 1-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinone, 1-benzyl-2-pyrrolidinone and 1-phenyl-2-pyrrolidinone with iodine, iodine monobromide and iodine monochloride has been studied by u.v. and visible spectroscopic methods in carbon tetrachloride, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, n-heptane and cyclohexane. The results show the equilibrium constants (K), complexation enthalpies (ΔH) and the wavelengths of maximum absorption bands (λ_max) of the complexes to vary markedly with the solvent. The decrease in the K values with increasing acceptor number (AN) of the solvent may be due to the competition of the solvent and the halogen molecule for the amide; for halogenated hydrocarbon solvents can act as weak electron acceptors. The complex formation ability of the electron donors decreases in the order 1-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinone ⪢ 1-benzyl-2-pyrrolidinone ⪢ 1-phenyl-2-pyrrolidinone, and the electron acceptor properties decrease in the order iodine monochloride ⪢ iodine monobromide ⪢ iodine.     

PAH/PAH(CF3)n Donor/Acceptor Charge-Transfer Complexes in Solution and in Solid-State Co-Crystals

A solution, solid-state, and computational study is reported of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon PAH/PAH(CF₃)_n donor/acceptor (D/A) charge-transfer complexes that involve six PAH(CF₃)_n acceptors with known gas-phase electron affinities that range from 2.11(2) to 2.805(15) eV and four PAH donors, including seven CT co-crystal X-ray structures that exhibit hexagonal arrays of mixed π-stacks with 1/1, 1/2, or 2/1 D/A stoichiometries (PAH=anthracene, azulene, coronene, perylene, pyrene, triphenylene; n=5, 6). These are the first D/A CT complexes with PAH(CF₃)_n acceptors to be studied in detail. The nine D/A combinations were chosen to allow several structural and electronic comparisons to be made, providing new insights about controlling D/A interactions and the structures of CT co-crystals. The comparisons include, among others, CT complexes of the same PAH(CF₃)_n acceptor with four PAH donors and CT complexes of the same donor with four PAH(CF₃)_n acceptors. All nine CT complexes exhibit charge-transfer bands in solution with λ_max between 467 and 600 nm. A plot of E(λ_max) versus [IE(donor)−EA(acceptor)] for the nine CT complexes studied is linear with a slope of 0.72±0.03 eV eV⁻¹. This plot is the first of its kind for CT complexes with structurally related donors and acceptors for which precise experimental gas-phase IEs and EAs are known. It demonstrates that conclusions based on the common assumption that the slope of a CT E(λ_max) versus [IE−EA] plot is unity may be incorrect in at least some cases and should be reconsidered.
