Reactivity of tris(acetylacetonato) iron(III) with tridentate [ONO] donor Schiff base as an access to newer mixed-ligand iron(III) complexes

Two new mixed-ligand iron(III) complexes, [Fe(L(n))(acac)(C(2)H(5)OH)] incorporating coordinated ethanol from the reaction solvent were accessed from the reaction of [Fe(acac)(3)] with [ONO] donor dibasic tridentate unsymmetrical Schiff base ligands derived from condensation of 2-hydroxy-1-napthaldehyde with 2-aminophenol (H(2)L(1)) or 2-aminobenzoic acid (H(2)L(2)). The thermal study (TGA-DTA) provided evidence for weakly bound ethanol which is readily substituted by neutral N-donor molecule imidazole, benzimidazole or pyridine to produce an array of newer complexes, [Fe(L(n))(acac)X] (n=1, 2; X=Im, Bim, Py). The compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR, UV-vis, solution electrical conductivity, FAB mass, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements (μ(eff)～5.8 B.M.) are consistent with spin-free octahedral iron(III) complexes. Cyclic voltammetry of ethanol complexes revealed a quasi-reversible one electron redox response (ΔE(p)>100 mV) for the Fe(III)/Fe(II) couple. Low half wave redox potential (E(1/2)) values suggested easy redox susceptibility. The ground state geometries of the ethanol and imidazole complexes have been ascertained to be distorted octahedral by density functional theory using DMol3 program at BLYP/DNP level.     

Topologically constrained manganese(III) and iron(III) complexes of two cross-bridged tetraazamacrocycles

A family of Mn3+ and Fe3+ complexes of 4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2]hexadecane (1) and 4,10-dimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazabicyclo[5.5.2]tetradecane (2) has been prepared by the chemical oxidation of the divalent manganese and iron analogues. The ligands are ethylene cross-bridged tetraazamacrocycles derived from cylam and cyclen, respectively. The synthesis and characterization of these complexes, including X-ray crystal structure determinations, are described. The structural evidence demonstrates that the tetradentate ligands enforce distorted octahedral geometries on the metal ions, with two cis sites occupied by labile ligands. Magnetic measurements reveal that the complexes are high spin with typical magnetic moments. Cyclic voltammetry shows reversible redox processes for the Fe3+/Fe2+ couples of the iron(III) complexes, while Mn3+/Mn2+ and Mn4+/Mn3+ couples were observed for the complexes with manganese(III). The manganese chemistry of 1 was studied in depth. The dichloro manganese(III) cation of 1 undergoes facile ligand substitution reactions at the labile, monodentate sites, for example substituting azide for chloride ligands. Air oxidation of the dichloro complex of Mn (1)2+ in basic solution does not give the expected mu-oxo dimeric product common to manganese. Instead, an unusual manganese(III)-OH complex has been isolated from this reaction and structurally characterized. A similar reaction under slightly different conditions gives a putative MnIII(OH)2 complex that metathesizes to MnIII(OMe)2 upon recrystallization from methanol.     

Spectral characterization of iron(III) complexes of 2-benzoylpyridine N(4)-substituted thiosemicarbazones

Three iron(III) complexes (1-3) of 2-benzoylpyridine N(4)-phenyl thiosemicarbazone (HL1) and one iron(III) complex (4) of 2-benzoylpyridine N(4)-cyclohexyl thiosemicarbazone (HL2) were synthesized and characterized by means of different physicochemical techniques viz., molar conductivity measurements, magnetic susceptibility studies and electronic, infrared and EPR spectral studies. The analytical data and the molar conductance measurements of the complexes reveal that two molecules of the ligand and the anion are coordinated to the metal atom in all the four complexes. The magnetic moments of the complexes suggest that they are of low spin. From the infrared spectra of the ligands and the complexes it is confirmed that the ligands coordinate to iron(III) as an anion coordinating via the azomethine nitrogen, pyridyl nitrogen, and the thiolate sulphur. The EPR spectra of the complexes in the polycrystalline state at 298 and 110 K and in DMF solution at 110 K were recorded and all the spectra show three g values indicating that these complexes have rhombic distortion. All the iron(III) complexes in DMF solution at 110 K have similar anisotropic spectra with almost the same gav values, indicating that the bonding in all the complexes is similar and is unaffected by the coordination of the anion.     

Metal benzoylpivaloylmethanates. Part III. Manganese(III) and iron(III) chelates

Summary The synthesis and principle properties of several novel tris[1-(4-X-phenyl)-4,4-dimethylpenta-1, 3-dionato]-iron(III) and manganese(III) complexes, where X=MeO, Me, H, F, Cl and NO₂, are described. Magnetic susceptibility measurements in the 4.2–295 K range show a near Curie behaviour and a constant magnetic moment for manganese(III) complexes and for iron complexes, with X=F, Cl or NO₂. Iron complexes with ligands having substituents: X=MeO, Me and H, show weak antiferromagnetic interaction (J=ca.–8 cm^–1 for the two former compounds) and a decrease in magnetic moment with decreasing temperature. In both manganese(III) and iron(III) complexes the diketonate ligand can be easily replaced by chlorine. Equilibrium constants could be evaluated only for substitution of the third diketonate ligand by chloride in the iron complexes on the basis of spectrophotometric measurements. For manganese chelates, the replacement of the second diketonate by chloride is accompanied by reduction of manganese(III) manganese(II) and free organic radical formation is observed.     

Interaction of Triapine and related thiosemicarbazones with iron(III)/(II) and gallium(III): a comparative solution equilibrium study

Stoichiometry and stability of Ga(III), Fe(III), Fe(II) complexes of Triapine and five related α-N heterocyclic thiosemicarbazones with potential antitumor activity have been determined by pH-potentiometry, UV-vis spectrophotometry, (1)H NMR spectroscopy, and spectrofluorimetry in aqueous solution (with 30% DMSO), together with the characterization of the proton dissociation processes. Additionally, the redox properties of the iron complexes were studied by cyclic voltammetry at various pH values. Formation of high stability bis-ligand complexes was found in all cases, which are predominant at physiological pH with Fe(III)/Fe(II), whilst only at the acidic pH range with Ga(III). The results show that among the thiosemicarbazones with various substituents the N-terminal dimethylation does not exert a measurable effect on the redox potential, but has the highest impact on the stability of the complexes as well as the cytotoxicity, especially in the absence of a pyridine-NH(2) group in the molecule. In addition the fluorescence properties of the ligands in aqueous solution and their changes caused by Ga(III) were studied.     

Synthesis and characterization of two binuclear iron(III) complexes of aminoethanol derivatives of aminophenol as models for non-heme iron enzymes active sites

Two aminoethanol derivatives of aminophenol ligands were synthesized and characterized by IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopies. The binuclear iron(III) complexes of these ligands have been prepared and characterized by IR, ¹H NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopic techniques, cyclic voltammetry, single crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility studies. X-ray analysis revealed binuclear complexes, Fe₂(L₂), in which Fe(III) centers are surrounded by two phenolate and hydroxyl oxygen atoms, and amine nitrogens of the ligands. The metal active sites of both complexes are held together by the two above mentioned hydroxyl bridges. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility indicates antiferromagnetic coupling between the iron centers of both complexes. This exchange coupling is stronger for Fe₂(L^ae)₂, such that it shows a room temperature strong coupling between the two iron centers. The investigated complexes undergo irreversible electrochemical oxidation and reduction.     

Aluminium(III) porphyrins as supramolecular building blocks

Aluminium(III) porphyrin-carboxylate complexes, including a porphyrin pentamer, have been characterised by NMR spectroscopy, MALDI spectrometry and single crystal X-ray diffraction; these complexes can also be coordinated by a sixth, nitrogenous, ligand to the aluminium(III) centre.     

Lanthanum(III) and prasedymium(III) complexes with piperazine dithiosemicarbazones

Lanthanum(III) and praseodymium(III) complexes of the type [Ln(L)Cl(H₂O)]₂ (Ln = La(III) or Pr(III); LH₂ = dithiosemicarbazone ligands derived from piperazine dithiosemicarbazide and benzaldehyde, 4-nitrobenzaldehyde, and 2-methoxybenzaldehyde) have been synthesized in methanol in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight, molar conductance, electronic absorption, IR, and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral studies. Nephelauxetic ratio, covalency parameter, and bonding parameter for these complexes have also been calculated. Thermal studies of the complexes have been carried out using TG, DTG, and DSC techniques. Kinetic parameters, such as apparent activation energy and order of reaction, were determined by the Coats-Redfern graphical method. The heats of reaction for different reaction steps were calculated from DSC curves. The article was submitted by the authors in English.     

The synthesis and characterization of single substitute melamine cored Schiff bases and their [Fe(III) and Cr(III)] complexes

In this study, firstly, two single substitute novel ligands have been synthesized by reacting melamine with 3,4,-dihydroxybenzaldeyhde or 4-carboxybenzaldehyde. Then, eight new mono nuclear single substitute [Salen/Salophen Fe(III) and Cr(III)] complexes have been synthesized by reacting the ligands [2-(3,4-dihydroxybenzimino)-4,6-diamimo-1,3,5-triazine and 2-(4-carboxybenzimino)-4,6-diamimo-1,3,5-triazine)] with tetradentate Schiff bases N,N′-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine-(salenH₂) or bis(salicylidene)-o-phenylenediamine-(salophen H₂). And then, all ligands and complexes have been characterized by means of elementel analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, ¹H NMR, LC–MS, thermal analyses and magnetic suscebtibility measurements. Finally, metal ratios of the prepared complexes were determined using AAS. The complexes have also been characterized as disorted octahedral low-spin Fe(III) and Cr(III) bridged by catechol and COO^? groups.     

COMPLEXES OF GALLIUM(III) WITH HYDROXYAROMATIC LIGANDS

Abstract

The equilibria between gallium(III) ion and selected hydroxyaromatic and dihydroxyaromatic ligands at 25°C, μ=0.100 M (KNO₃) have been determined. Potentiometric measurements on 1:1, 2:1, and 3:1 molar ratios of ligand to Ga(III) have been made as a function of degree of neutralization over the entire accessible ?log [H⁺] scale. Calculations were carried out so as to take account of competing hydrolytic reactions, and formation constants of gallium(III) with chromotropic acid, 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid, 5-sulfosalicylic acid, and 1,2-dihydroxy-benzene-3,5-disulfonic acid were obtained. Stable hydroxo chelates do not form under the reaction conditions employed. The protonation constants of the ligands and the formation constants of the gallium chelates are discussed and compared with previously published work on these gallium chelates and on chelates of “analogous” metal ions such as those of Fe(III) and A1(III).     

Formation constants of chromium(III), scandium(III) and yttrium(III) complexes of some hydroxy naphthoic acids

The complexes of chromium(III), scandium(III) and yttrium(III) formed by 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (1,2-HNA: H2L) and 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (3,2-HNA: H2L) were investigated by potentiometry and spectroscopy at 25+/-0.1 degrees C and at an ionic strength of 0.1 M KNO3 in 50% ethanol-water (v/v) medium. The stoichiometries of these three M(III) complexes formed with these hydroxy-naphthoic acids and with hydroxo ion were defined and their formation constants were determined and compared. Thus, the removing capacities of these ligands could be examined by calculating the equilibrium concentration of Cr(III) that exists in the discharge water of various industries since Cr(III) ions are the main pollutants present during waste water treatment in our city, Bursa.     

Iron(II) complexes with tetradentate bis(aminophenolate) ligands: synthesis and characterization, solution behavior, and reactivity with O(2)

Tetradentate bis(aminophenolate) ligands H(2)salan(X) and H(2)bapen(X) (where X refers to the para-phenolate substituent = H, Me, F, Cl) react with [Fe{N(SiMe(3))(2)}(2)] to form iron(II) complexes, which in the presence of suitable donor ligands L (L = pyridine or THF) can be isolated as the complexes [Fe(salan(X))(L)(2)] and [Fe(bapen(X))(L)(2)]. In the absence of donor ligands, either mononuclear complexes, for example, [Fe(salan(tBu,tBu))], or dinuclear complexes of the type [Fe(salan(X))](2) are obtained. The dynamic coordination behavior in solution of the complexes [Fe(salan(F))(L)(2)] and [Fe(bapen(F))(L)(2)] has been investigated by VT (1)H and (19)F NMR spectroscopy, which has revealed equilibria between isomers with different ligand coordination topologies cis-α, cis-β and trans. Exposure of the iron(II) salan(X) complexes to O(2) results in the formation of oxo-bridged iron(III) complexes of the type [{Fe(salan(X))}(2)(μ-O)] or [{Fe(salan(X))(L)}(2)(μ-O)]. The lack of catalytic activity of the iron(II) salan and bapen complexes in the oxidation of cyclohexane with H(2)O(2) as the oxidant is attributed to the rapid formation of stable and catalytically inactive oxo-bridged iron(III) complexes.     

NMR studies of mixed-ligand iron(III) dithiocarbamates

¹H NMR studies of mixed-ligand iron (III) dithiocarbamates have been carried out using the following ligands: N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate, morpholinyl-N-, and piperidyl-N-carbodithioate. The ligand exchange equilibria gave all species of the general formula Fe(dtc)_n(dtc′)_3?n, where n = 0-3 with nearly random statistical distribution of Fe(Et₂dtc)_n(morphdtc)_3?n complexes. Magnetic moments of the mixed-ligand complexes have been determined. Both the magnetic moment and isotropic shift temperature dependences confirmed the cross-over properties of these mixed-ligand complexes.     

Iron(II) and Iron(III) Perchlorate Complexes of Ciprofloxacin and Norfloxacin

The reactions of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and norfloxacin (NOR) with iron(II) and iron(III) perchlorate have been investigated. The optical spectra support the formation of four complexes for each oxidation state with 1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 3 and 1 : 4 metal to ligand molar ratios. The electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements show that the isolated complexes are high spin and the Fe(ClO 4 ) 2 and Fe(ClO 4 ) 3 complexes behave as 1 : 2 and 1 : 3 electrolytes, respectively. The IR spectra indicate that CIP and NOR bind to the iron ion as bidentate ligands through the carbonyl oxygen atom and one of the oxygen atoms of the carboxylate group.     

Lanthanum(III) chloride complexes with heterocyclic Schiff bases

Condensation of 2-amino-3-carboxyethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene with carbonyl compounds such as isatin, o-hydroxyacetophenone or benzoin in 1:1 ratio in ethanol medium yielded three distinctly different heterocyclic Schiff bases viz. 2-(N-indole-2-one)amino-3-carboxyethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene (ISAT), 2-(N-o-hydroxyacetophenone)amino- 3-carboxyethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzo[b]thiophene (HAAT) or 2-(N-benzoin)amino-3-carboxyethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene (HBAT) respectively. These ligands formed well defined complexes with lanthanum(III) chloride under suitable conditions. The ligands and the complexes have been characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, UV-visible, IR and proton NMR spectral studies. Kinetics and mechanism of the thermal decomposition of the ligands and the metal complexes have been studied using non-isothermal thermogravimetry. Kinetic parameters were calculated for each step of the decomposition reactions using Coats-Redfern equation. The rate controlling process for all the ligands and complexes is random nucleation with the formation of one nucleus on each particle (Mampel equation). Relative thermal stabilities of the ligands and the metal complexes have been compared.     

Thermodynamic study of Eu(III) complexation by pyridine monocarboxylates

The thermodynamic parameters (log K, ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) of complexation of Eu(III), a chemical analogue of trivalent actinides, with pyridine monocarboxylates, namely, picolinic acid (pyridine-2-carboxylic acid), nicotinic acid (pyridine-3-carboxylic acid), isonicotinic acid (pyridine-4-carboxylic acid) have been studied at 1.0 M ionic strength adjusted by NaClO₄ and 298 K by potentiometry, fluorescence spectroscopy and calorimetry. The potentiometric results revealed formation of four complexes, ML_i (i = 1–4) in case of picolinate whereas only ML complexes in case of nicotinate and isonicotinate. The log K_ML for Eu(III) picolinate complex is higher than that for complexes of Eu(III) with the other two acids. The complexation reaction between Eu(III) and picolinate was found to be exothermic due to chelate formation via pyridyl nitrogen. In case of complexation of Eu(III) with nicotinate and isonicotinate, the enthalpy changes are similar as in the case of simple mono carboxylates and are positive. Life time measurements by time resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, for the decay of ⁵D₀ state of Eu(III) also indicated the formation of ML₄ with picolinate and formation of ML only with the other two acids. The experimental observations on the stability and binding mode of the complexes are corroborated by theoretical calculations using the TURBOMOLE software. The detail analysis of calculated charge values of the free ligands and the complexes indicates that charge polarization is more in the isonicotinate than in nicotinate upon complexation.     

Coordination polymers based on aluminum(III) porphyrins

Aluminum(III) porphyrin carboxylate complexes have shown an affinity for a sixth nitrogenous ligand. The use of isonicotinic or nicotinic acid, which offers both a carboxylate and a nitrogen donor in the same molecule, resulted in the formation of one-dimensional (1-D) coordination polymers. The complexes and their linear oligomers have been characterized by (1)H NMR spectroscopy and nanoelectrospray ionization spectrometry. X-ray analyses confirmed the formation of the 1-D polymers in the solid state.     

A new nuclear magnetic resonance algorithm to determine equilibrium constants of the species in the B(III)-H2O system

Several efforts have been attempted to study species formation by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) in systems with several chemical equilibria present. The majority of these are qualitative and only a few have tried to relate component fractions of a distribution diagram with experimental area fractions determined from NMR spectra to obtain equilibrium constants values. In this work we present a new focus that attempts to relate the species concentration fractions in the system with area fractions beneath NMR peaks to achieve this task. 11B-NMR data of B(III)-H2O systems have been processed with the aid of formation constant values (-log *beta) obtained by potentiometry which are 9.17+/-0.01 for B(OH)3, 9.79+/-0.08 for B2O(OH)5-, 19.90+/-0.09 for B3O3(OH)4- and 38.50+/-0.04 for B5O6(OH)4-, form B(III)-H2O systems with 0.075 M< or = [B(III)]total< or = 0.700 M, in agreement with previous reports and NMR behavior. The treatment of NMR data developed in this work gives a new methodology to obtain formation constants and suggests the possibility to establish a generalization of Beer's law to NMR spectroscopy.     

Equilibrium studies on chromium(III) complexes of salicylic acid and salicylic acid derivatives in aqueous solution

The complexes of chromium(III) ion formed by salicylic acid, SA(H(2)L), and its derivatives (H(2)L): 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-NSA), 5-sulphosalicylic acid (5-SSA) were investigated by means of potentiometry and spectroscopy, at 25 degrees C and in ionic strength of 0.1 M KNO(3) and 0.1 M KCl, respectively. Over the acidic pH range, the coordination of Cr(III) ion to SA and its derivatives in 1 : 1 mole ratio occurs, CrL(+) type complex is formed. In the excess of ligand, the coordination of the second ligand molecule is somewhat hindered; as a result CrL(HL) type complex occurs. Their existences were verified and their formation constants were determined. At near neutral pH, CrL(OH) and CrL(HL)(OH)(-) type hydroxo complexes formed by hydrolytic equilibria and their formation constants were also defined. The stabilities of Cr(III) complexes of SA and its derivatives decrease in the following order: SA>5-SSA>5-NSA. The formation constants of Cr(III) complexes of SA and its derivatives are in comparable ranges with the corresponding complexes of the 2,x-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,x-DHBA) of Cr(III) ion. The stabilities of SA complexes for V(IV), Cr(III) and Fe(III) ions that have similar ionic radii, increase in the order VOL相似文献   

The Affinity of Gallium(III) and Indium(III) for Nitrogen Donor Ligands

Abstract

Dedicated to Professor Arthur Martell on the occasion of his seventy fifth birthday.

The complexes of In(III) and Ga(III) with a variety of nitrogen donor ligands were studied in aqueous solution by glass electrode potentiometry at 25°C in 0.1 M NaNO₃. The ligands were 2-aminomethylpyri-dine (AMPY), ethylenediamine (EN), N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-hydroxypropyl)ethylenediamine (THPED), and N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)glycine (BICIN). A variety of mixed ligand complexes of the MLOH type were detected with many of the above ligands as L. The logK₁ values obtained were with Ga(III) 8.40 (AMPY), 7.94 (THPED) 12.72 (EN), and In(III) 7.6 (AMPY), 8.20 (THPED), and 7.06 (BICIN). These formation constants are discussed in relation to previous predictions that In(III) and Ga(III) would have a substantial chemistry with nitrogen donor ligands. Of particular interest is the Ga(III) system with EN, where a very stable Ga(EN)³⁺ complex is formed, but no higher complexes except for hydrolyzed species such as Ga(EN)OH²⁺ and Ga(EN)(OH)₂ ⁺.
