3-(Aryl)-2-sulfanylpropenoates of mercury(II) and phenylmercury(II)

Compounds [HQ]₂[Hg(L)₂] and [HQ][PhHg(L)] [where HQ = diisopropylammonium cation; L = pspa, fspa, tspa, where p = 3-(phenyl), f = 3-(2-furyl), t = 3-(2-thienyl), and spa = 2-sulfanylpropenoato] have been prepared by the reaction of mercury(II) acetate or phenylmercury(II) acetate with the corresponding acid in the presence of diisopropylamine in ethanol. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, FAB mass spectrometry and IR and NMR (¹H, ¹³C) spectroscopy. The crystal structures of the [HQ]₂[Hg(L)₂] compounds show the presence of diisopropylammonium cations and [Hg(L)₂]²⁻ anions. In each anion the Hg atom is in an HgO₂S₂ environment and this can be described as nido-tbp. The crystal structures of the [HQ][PhHg(L)] compounds show the presence of diisopropylammonium cations and [PhHg(L)]⁻ anions in which the Hg atom adopts an HgCOS distorted T-environment. The NMR data suggest that the coordination mode of the ligand L²⁻ determined by X-ray diffractometry in the solid remains in solution.     

Copper(II) complexes of 2-(pyrrolidinomethyl)- and 2-(3-pyrrolinomethyl)pyridine N-oxides

Summary This title pyridine N-oxides have been prepared and their copper(II) complexes isolated as perchlorate, tetrafluoroborate and nitrate salts. The ligands coordinatevia both the pyridine N-oxide oxygen and the amine nitrogen to give bis(ligand) complexes for the perchlorate and tetrafluoroborate salts. The nitrate solids have [CuL(NO₃)₂] stoichiometry with monodentate nitrato-ligands. The spectral properties of these complexes are compared to those of N-alkyl-and N,N-dialkyl2-picolinamine N-oxides as well as other 2-substituted pyridine N-oxides.NATO Fellow on leave from Istanbul Medical Faculty, Istanbul University.     

Molybdenum- and tungsten(II) monometallic 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole and bimetallic 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazolate complexes

Molybdenum and tungsten complexes containing the pypzH (3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole) ligand as a chelating bidentate are prepared: [Mo(CO)(4)(pypzH)], cis-[MoBr(η(3)-allyl)(CO)(2)(pypzH)], cis-[MoCl(η(3)-methallyl)(CO)(2)(pypzH)], [MI(2)(CO)(3)(pypzH)] (M = Mo, W) from [Mo(CO)(4)(NBD)] or the adequate bis(acetonitrile) complexes. The deprotonation of the molybdenum allyl or methallyl complexes affords the bimetallic complexes [cis-{Mo(η(3)-allyl)(CO)(2)(μ(2)-pypz)}](2) or [cis-{Mo(η(3)-methallyl)(CO)(2)(μ(2)-pypz)}](2) (μ(2)-pypz = μ(2)-3-(2-pyridyl-κ(1)N)pyrazolate-2κ(1)N). The allyl complex was subjected to an electrochemical study, which shows a marked connection between both metallic centres through the bridging pyridylpyrazolates.     

Complexation of Ni (II) and Zn(II) ions by 3-(1-naphthyI)-2-mercaptopropenoic acid

The complexation equilibria between Ni(II) and Zn(II) metal ions with 3-(1-naphthyl)-2-mercaptopropenoic acid (H₂NMP) were studied by glass electrode potentiometry, at 25 °C and 1.0 mol·dm^–3 in NaClO₄ as constant ionic medium in 50% (v/v) water-ethanol solutions. Formation constants for the complexes Ni(NMP), Ni(NMP) ₂ ^2– , Zn(NMP) and Zn(NMP) ₂ ^2– , refined by the MINIGLASS program, are reported.     

Cyclometallation of 2-(2-thienyl)pyridine and 2-(3-thienyl)pyridine with palladium(II), rhodium(III) and ruthenium(II)

Summary 2-(2-Thienyl)pyridine [H(2-tp)] and 2-(3-thienyl)pyridine [H(3-tp)] react with lithium tetrachloropalladate(II), hexachlorotetrakis(tri-n-butylphosphine) dirhodium(III), and tetrachlorohexacarbonyldiruthenium(II) to give [PdCl(C-N)]₂-(CN=2-tp and 3-tp), [RhCl₂(C-N)PBu₃]₂ (C-N = 2-tp and 3-tp), and [RuCl(2-tp)(CO)₂]₂, respectively. Some bromo analogues are also prepared. These complexes react with pyridine and tri-n-butylphosphine to give adducts in which 2-tp is chelated through pyridine-N and thiophene-3-C and 3-tp through pyridine-N and thiophene-2-C atoms. The structures of these complexes are similar to those of the corresponding complexes of cyclometallated 2-phenylpyridine.     

Copper(II), nickel(II), palladium(II) and iron(III) complexes of 2-(3-phthalhydrazidylazo)-1,3-diketones

Neutral complexes of three phthalhydrazidylazo-1,3-diketones [phthalhydrazidylazo-acetylacetone (H₂PAA),-benzoylacetone (H₂PBA) and-dibenzoylmethane (H₂PDM)] with Cu(II), Ni(II), Pd(II) and Fe(III) have been synthesised and characterized on the basis of their analytical data, magnetic moment, molar conductance and IR and¹H NMR spectral data. Dibasic tridentate coordination of the ligands is brought out by the above spectral data. Half-wave potentials and far IR spectral data of the Cu(II) complexes indicate that the H₂PAA complex is the most stable. M?ssbauer spectra of the Fe(III) complexes reveal that delocalisation of the metald electrons with the chelate ring decreases with increasing capability of the pendant groups of the ring for cross conjugation.     

Zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes containing the 2-{2-[3-(triethoxysilyl)-propylthio]ethylamino}ethylamino ligand

The new 2-{2-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propylthio]ethylamino}ethylamino SNN ligand, has been synthesized and fully characterized. Its donor properties towards zinc(II) and cadmium(II) have been investigated in order to simulate the metal uptake behavior in environmental applications. It reacts with ZnX₂ (X = Cl, Br and I) and CdCl₂ to form monomeric molecular complexes, MX₂(SNN)₂. Mass, i.r., ¹H- and ¹³C{¹H}-n.m.r. spectroscopies and elemental analyses reveal that, in these complexes, the metal attains its highest coordination number by linking to two nitrogen atoms of the ethylenediamine portion, and to two halogen atoms. The SNN ligand thus behaves as a bidentate four electrons donor, the thioether sulfur atom still remaining available for further coordination.     

Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 5-(2-carboxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin

A new series of hexacoordinate cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 5-(2-carboxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin HL having formulae [LM(OAc)(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (M = Co^II, Cu^II and Ni^II), [LMCl(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (M = Co^II and Ni^II), [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O, [LCu(H₂O)₃](ClO₄) and [LCu(HSO₄)(H₂O)₂] were isolated and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivities and magnetic susceptibilities, and by i.r., electronic and e.s.r. spectral measurements, as well as by thermal (t.g. and d.t.g.) analyses. The i.r. spectra indicate that the ligand HL behaves as a monobasic tridentate towards the three divalent metal ions via an azo-N, carboxylate-O and thiohydantoin-O atom. The magnetic moments and electronic spectral data suggest an octahedral geometry for Co^II complexes, distorted octahedral geometry for both Ni^II and Cu^II complexes with a dimeric structure for [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O through bridged chloro ligands. The X-band e.s.r. spectra reveal an axial symmetry for the copper(II) complexes with unsymmetrical M_s = ± 1 signal and G-parameter less than four for the dimeric [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O. The thermogravimetry (t.g. and d.t.g.) of some complexes were studied; the order and kinetic parameters of their thermal degradation were determined by applying Coats–Redfern method and discussed.     

Spectrophotometric study of the complex formation of 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-mercaptopropenoic acid with Ni(II) and Zn(II)

The dissociation and complex formation equilibria between Ni(II) and Zn(II) with 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-mercaptopropenoic acid, at 25 degrees in aqueous 0.1 and 1.0M sodium perchlorate solutions, containing about 1% ethanol, have been studied spectrophotometrically. The data were connected directly from the spectrophotometer to an IBM-PC via a serial interface, using the DUMOD program (written in BASIC), described in the paper. The obtained spectra were treated by the factor analysis program NIPALS in order to determine the number of absorbing species and the experimental error. Dissociation constants of ligand (H(3)L), and formation constants for the complexes Ni(HL), Ni(HL)(2), Zn(HL) and Zn(HL)(2) at 0.1 and 1.0M ionic strengths, refined by the SQUAD program, are reported.     

2-(Acylmethylmercapto)-3-amino- and 2-(acylmethylmercapto)-3-acetamidopyridines

The reaction of 2-mercapto-3-acetamido-5-(or 6-)chloropyridines with phenacyl bromide and substituted phenacyl bromides yielded 2-(phenacylmercapto)-3-acetamidopyridines, while the reaction of the former with -chloroacetoacetic ester yielded 2-(carbethoxyacyl-methylmercapto)-3-acetamidopyridlnes.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1391–1394, October, 1971.

Complexation of copper(II) with 3-(2-hydroxyphenylazo)pentadione-2,4

It is shown that 3-(2-hydroxyphenylazo)pentadione-2,4 (H₂L) can exist in three tautomeric forms (enol-azo, keto-azo, and hydrazo). The effective atomic charges in the tautomeric forms of H₂L are calculated by the Hückel MO LCAO method. The molar fractions and molar absorptivities of the tautomers at different pH are found. The complexation of copper(II) with H₂L is studied by spectrophotometry. Beer’s law is obeyed for 0.51–5.12 μg/mL of copper. The assumed complex structure is given. The effect of foreign ions and masking agents on the complexation is studied. A procedure for the photometric determination of copper(II) in zinc-based alloys is proposed. Original Russian Text ?
