Reactivity of the Indenyl Radical (C9H7) with Acetylene (C2H2) and Vinylacetylene (C4H4)

The reactions of the indenyl radicals with acetylene (C₂H₂) and vinylacetylene (C₄H₄) is studied in a hot chemical reactor coupled to synchrotron based vacuum ultraviolet ionization mass spectrometry. These experimental results are combined with theory to reveal that the resonantly stabilized and thermodynamically most stable 1-indenyl radical (C₉H₇^.) is always formed in the pyrolysis of 1-, 2-, 6-, and 7-bromoindenes at 1500 K. The 1-indenyl radical reacts with acetylene yielding 1-ethynylindene plus atomic hydrogen, rather than adding a second acetylene molecule and leading to ring closure and formation of fluorene as observed in other reaction mechanisms such as the hydrogen abstraction acetylene addition or hydrogen abstraction vinylacetylene addition pathways. While this reaction mechanism is analogous to the bimolecular reaction between the phenyl radical (C₆H₅^.) and acetylene forming phenylacetylene (C₆H₅CCH), the 1-indenyl+acetylene→1-ethynylindene+hydrogen reaction is highly endoergic (114 kJ mol⁻¹) and slow, contrary to the exoergic (−38 kJ mol⁻¹) and faster phenyl+acetylene→phenylacetylene+hydrogen reaction. In a similar manner, no ring closure leading to fluorene formation was observed in the reaction of 1-indenyl radical with vinylacetylene. These experimental results are explained through rate constant calculations based on theoretically derived potential energy surfaces.

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Complexes [Cu(C14H8N3O4Br)](C4H9NO) and [Ni(C14H9N2O3Br)](C4H9NO)

The title compounds, Cu(L1)(C4H8NHO) and Ni(L2)(C4H8NHO) (H2L1 = 5-bro- mosalicylaldehyde-p-nitrobenzoylhydrazone, H2L2 = 5-bromosalicylaldehyde-p-hydroxybenzo- ylhydrazone), have been obtained and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 8.6960(2), b = 9.957(2), c = 11.878(2) , α = 73.36(3), β = 78.25(3), γ = 82.64(3)o, V = 962.1(3) 3, Mr = 512.81, Z = 2, F(000) = 514, Dc = 1.770 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 3.251, R = 0.0337 and wR = 0.0846. Complex 2 is of monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 13.313(2), b = 8.2096(1), c = 21.890(3) , β = 125.737(3)o, V = 1941.9(4) 3, Mr = 478.97, Z = 4, F(000) = 968, Dc = 1.638 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 3.085, R = 0.0356 and wR = 0.0817. The ligands form a satisfactory N2O2 square plane around the metal centers in two compounds. Different patterns of hydrogen bonds are observed owing to the presence of different substituents on aromatic ring of the acylhydrazone Schiff bases. In complex 1, square-planar copper(II) complexes are linked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds leading to zigzag infinite chains. In complex 2, the metal complexes are linked via hydrogen bonds to form corrugated sheets in a staggered fashion; 3D channels along the b axis are constructed through other non-covalent interactions between the neighboring layers.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Binuclear Complex [Pr2(C10H8N2O4)2(C10H9N2O4)2(H2O)4]·3H2O·C6H6

The binuclear praseodymium(III) complex with N‐(1‐carboxyethylidene)‐salicylhydrazide (C₁₀H₁₀N₂O₄, H₂L) was prepared in H₂O‐C₂H₅OH mixed solution, and the crystal structure of [Pr₂L₂(HL)₂(H₂O)₄]·3H₂O·C₆H₆ was determined by X‐ray single crystal diffraction. The crystal complex crystallizes in the triclinic system with space group P‐1, and in the structure each Pr atom is 9‐coordinated by carboxyl O and acyl O and azomethine N atoms of two tridentate ligands to form two stable five‐membered rings sharing one side in keto‐mode and two water molecules. The coordination polyhedron around Pr³⁺ was described as a monocapped square antiprism geometry. In an individual molecule, four tridentate ligands were coordinated by two negative univalent (HL) and two bivalent forms (L) respectively. Two negative univalent ligands were coordinated via μ₂‐bridging mode.     

Copper(I) Complexes with N-Allylquinolinium Bromide [C9H7N(C3H5)]CuBr2 and [C9H7N(C3H5)]Cu2Br3: Synthesis and Crystal Structure

Crystals of [₉₇N(₃₅)]uBr₂ (IV) and [₉₇N(₃₅)][u₂Br₃] (V) were prepared by ac electrochemical synthesis from uBr₂, N-allylquinolinium bromide, on copper electrodes in the ethanol–benzene medium. X-ray diffraction study has shown that crystals IV and V are monoclinic: space group A2₁/a, a = 13.776(3) Å, b = 14.304(3) Å, c = 13.147(2) Å, = 107.90(1) Å, V = 2465(2) ų, Z = 8 for IV and space group P2₁/n, a = 13.881(2) Å, b = 15.446(2) Å, c = 7.111(1) Å, = 104.64(1)°, V = 1475.0(8) ų, Z = 4 for V. Structures IV and V are built of the N-allylquinolinium cations and different anions i.e., (CuBr₂) ^n- _n forming infinite chains in IV and peculiar {[Cu^I ₄Br₆]^2–} _n arranged in polymeric chains in V. In the latter case, two independent metal atoms have trigonal–pyramidal and trigonal–planar environments. In the structures of both compounds, the C=C bond of the allyl group is not involved in coordination with the Cu(I) atom.
