Quantum chemical study of C—H bond activation in methane molecule by AuIII aqua chloride complexes

The mechanism of the reactions of methane with the gold(III) complexes [AuCl_x(H₂O)_{4− x} ]^3−x (x = 2, 3, or 4) was studied by the DFT/PBE method with the SBK basis set. High activation barriers obtained for the reactions of [AuCl₄]⁻ and [Au(H₂O)Cl₃] with methane suggest these reactions cannot proceed under mild conditions. The reaction of the [Au(H₂O)₂Cl₂]⁺ complex with methane has a rather low energy barrier and proceeds through the formation of an intermediate complex. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Adduct effects on structure and luminescence in a series of new dithiocarbamatogold(I) complexes

Reaction of [AuCl(SMe₂)] with NaL·H₂O (L = ethyl(pyridine-4-yl methyl)dithiocarbamate (epdtc) or methyl(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl)dithiocarbamate (mpdtc)) affords a series of neutral dinuclear gold(I) complexes bridged by each dithiocarbamate ligand, [Au(L)]₂. The successive reaction of [Au(L)]₂ with organic acids such as isophthalic acid (m-pa) and maleic acid (ma) produces 1:1 adducts, [Au(L)]₂·(organic acid). The crystal structure of [Au(L)]₂·(m-pa) is a 1D polymer formed via hydrogen bonds between the free pyridyl and the carboxylic acid moiety. For the dinuclear moiety, strong intradinuclear aurophilic interactions (Au(I)–Au(I) = 2.7783(8) Å and 2.7525(7) Å) exist, but interdinuclear interactions are weak (3.2551(8)–3.2733(8) Å). The dinuclear gold(I) complexes, [Au(epdtc)]₂ and [Au(mpdtc)]₂, show a bright luminescence at 562.5 and 552.0 nm in solid state, respectively, but their organic acid adducts, [Au(L)]₂·(organic acid), have no luminescent properties. This dramatic difference in properties between the gold(I) complexes and their adducts may be ascribed to the weakness of the internuclear Au(I)–Au(I) interaction including crystal packing.

Synthesis and structure of cobalt α-dioximate complexes with isonicotinamide

New cobalt trans-dioximate complexes with isoniconinamide have been synthesized: [Co^II(DmgH)₂(Inia)₂] (I), [Co^III(DmgH)₂(Inia)₂][PF₆] · 1.5H₂O (II), [Co^III(NioxH)₂ (Inia)₂][PF₆] · H₂O · CH₃OH (III), and [CoIIICl(DmgH)₂(Inia)] · H₂O (IV), where DmgH⁻ and NioxH⁻ are the dimeth-ylglyoxime and 1,2-cyclohexanedionedioxime monoanions, respectively; Inia is the isonicotinamide molecule.

Synthesis,spectroscopic, thermal and biological aspect of mixed ligand copper(II) complexes

Derivative of 8-hydroxyquinoline i.e. Clioquinol is well known for its antibiotic properties, drug design and coordinating ability towards metal ion such as Copper(II). The structure of mixed ligand complexes has been investigated using spectral, elemental and thermal analysis. In vitro anti microbial activity against four bacterial species were performed i.e. Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens, Bacillus substilis and found that synthesized complexes (15–37 mm) were found to be significant potent compared to standard drugs (clioquinol i.e. 10–26 mm), parental ligands and metal salts employed for complexation. The kinetic parameters such as order of reaction (n = 0.96–1.49), and the energy of activation (E _a = 3.065–142.9 kJ mol⁻¹), have been calculated using Freeman–Carroll method. The range found for the pre-exponential factor (A), the activation entropy (S* = −91.03 to−102.6 JK⁻¹ mol⁻¹), the activation enthalpy (H* = 0.380–135.15 kJ mol⁻¹), and the free energy (G* = 33.52–222.4 kJ mol⁻¹) of activation reveals that the complexes are more stable. Order of stability of complexes were found to be [Cu(A⁴)(CQ)OH] · 4H₂O > [Cu(A³)(CQ)OH] · 5H₂O > [Cu(A¹)(CQ)OH] · H₂O > [Cu(A²)(CQ)OH] · 3H₂O     

Syntheses, structures and properties of two new neodymium complexes with N-P-acetamidobenzenesulfonyl-glycine acid

Two new neodymium complexes, [Nd₂(abglyH)₆(2,2′-bipy)₂(H₂O)₂] · 4H₂O 1 and {[Nd(abglyH)₃(H₂O)₂] · (4,4′-bipy) · 7H₂O}_n 2 (abglyH₂ = N-P-acetamidobenzenesulfonyl-glycine acid, 2,2′-bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine, 4,4′-bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine), have been synthesized and their structures have been measured by X-ray crystallography. In 1, nine-coordinated Nd(III) ions are bridged by two syn–syn bidentate and two tridentate bridging carboxylate groups from four different abglyH⁻ anions to form dinuclear motifs, which are further connected into a 3-D supramolecular framework via hydrogen bonds between the binuclear motifs and the uncoordinated water molecules. In 2, eight-coordinated Nd(III) ions are linked by six carboxylate groups adopting a syn–syn bidentate bridging fashion to form a 1-D inorganic–organic alternating linear chain. These polymeric chains generate microchannels extending along the a direction, and these cavities are occupied by discrete tetradecameric water clusters, which interact with their surroundings and finally furnish the 3-D supramolecular network via hydrogen bonds. At the same time, π–π stacking interactions between benzene rings from abglyH⁻ anions also play an important role in stabilizing the network.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of μ-phenolato oxovanadium(IV), cobalt(II) and zinc(II) binuclear complexes

Three binuclear complexes, (VO)₂(L)OMe (1), Co₂(L)OEt·3/2H₂O (2) and Zn₂(L)OMe·H₂O (3) have been prepared, where H₃L is the binucleating ligand, 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol di(benzoylhydrazone). The magnetic susceptibilities of (1) and (2) were measured over the 4.2–300 K range and the observed data were fitted to the Bleaney-Bowers equation by the least-squares method, giving the exchange integral 2J = −358.5cm⁻¹ for (1) and 2J = −6.6cm⁻¹ for (2). This procedure indicates the existence of an antiferromagnetic interaction between the metals. TMC 2699     

Processes of dissociative electron capture by 20-hydroxyecdysone molecules

The peculiarities of dissociative electron capture by 20-hydroxyecdysone molecules with the formation of fragment negative ions were studied. In the region of high electron energies (5–10 eV), processes of skeleton bond rupture are accompanied by the elimination of H₂O and H₂ molecules. In the region of thermal energies of electrons (≈0 eV), the mass spectrum is formed mainly by the [M−nH₂O]^.− (n=1–3) and [M−H₂−nH₂O]^.− (n=0−3) ions that are generated exclusively by the rearrangement.

Synthesis, characterisation and chemical reactivity of some new dioxouranium(VI) complexes of 2-aminobenzoylhydrazone of butane-2,3-dione

A new series of dioxouranium(VI) complexes of a potential ONNO tetradentate donor 2-aminobenzoylhydrazone of butane-2,3-dione (L₁H₂) have been synthesized. At pH 2·5–4·0, the donor (L₁H₂) reacts in the keto form and complexes of the type [UO₂(L₁H₂)(X)₂] (X⁻=Cl⁻, Br⁻, NO ₃ ⁻ , NCS⁻, ClO ₄ ⁻ , CH₃COO⁻, 1/2SO ₄ ²⁻ ) are obtained. At higher pH (6·5–7), the complex of the enol form having the formula [UO₂(L₁)(H₂O)] has been isolated. On reaction with a monodentate lewis base (B), both types of complexes yield adducts of the type [UO₂(L₁)(B)]. All these complexes have been characterised adequately by elemental analyses and other standard physicochemical techniques. Location of the bonding sites of the donor molecule around the uranyl ion, status of the uranium-oxygen bond and the probable structure of the complexes have also been discussed.

Coordination Reaction of Alanine with Neodymium(III) and Erbium(III) Nitrate. Thermochemical study

The solid-state coordination reaction: Nd(NO₃)₃·6H₂O(s)+4Ala(s) → Nd(Ala)₄(NO₃)₃·H₂O(s)+5H₂O(_l) and Er(NO₃)₃·6H₂O(s)+4Ala(s) → Er(Ala)₄(NO₃)₃·H₂O(s)+5H₂O(l) have been studied by classical solution calorimetry. The molar dissolution enthalpies of the reactants and the products in 2 mol L^–1 HCl solvent of these two solid-solid coordination reactions have been measured using a calorimeter. From the results and other auxiliary quantities, the standard molar formation enthalpies of [Nd(Ala)₄(NO₃)₃·H₂O, s, 298.2 K] and[Er(Ala)₄(NO₃)₃·H₂O, s,298.2 K] at 298.2 K have been determined to be Δ_f H _m ⁰ [Nd(Ala)₄(NO₃)₃·H₂O,s, 298.2 K]=–3867.2 kJ mol^–1, and Δ_f H _m ⁰ [Er(Ala)₄(NO₃)₃·H₂O, s, 298.2 K]=–3821.5 kJ mol^–1.

Theoretical study of bifurcated bent blue-shifted hydrogen bonds CH<Subscript>2</Subscript>···Y

Ab initio quantum chemistry methods were applied to study the bifurcated bent hydrogen bonds Y··· H₂CZ (Z = O, S, Se) and Y···H₂CZ₂ (Z = F, Cl, Br) (Y = Cl⁻, Br⁻) at the MP2/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(2df,2p) levels. The results show that in each complex there are two equivalent blue-shifted H-bonds Y···H-C, and that the interaction energies and blue shifts are large, the energy of each Y···H-C H-bond is 15–27 kJ/mol, and Δr(CH) = −0.1 − −0.5 pm and Δv(CH) = 30 − 80 cm⁻¹. The natural bond orbital analysis shows that these blue-shifted H-bonds are caused by three factors: large rehybridization; small direct intermolecular hyperconjugation and larger indirect intermolecular hyperconjugation; large decrease of intramolecular hyperconjugation. The topological analysis of electron density shows that in each complex there are three intermolecular critical points: there is one bond critical point between the acceptor atom Y and each hydrogen, and there is a ring critical point inside the tetragon YHCH, so these interactions are exactly H-bonding.     

Hypercoordinated gold (i) compounds

The reaction of [O(AuPPh₃)₃]⁺BF₄ ⁻ with a Li, K derivative ofo-cresol followed by the interaction of the reaction product with CO₂ gave (triphenylphosphine)gold acetate. The reaction of ClAuPPh₃ witho-LiC₆H₄SLi afforded (triphenylphosphine)gold thiophenoxide. According to the data of X-ray structural analysis, the latter occurs as a dimer formed through an intermolecular secondary Au…Au bond. The reaction of this complex with diazomethane was accompanied by insertion of carbene into the Au−S bond to form a new gold complex, PhSCH₂AuPPh₃. The reactions with PPh₃Au⁺BF₄ ⁻ or HBF₄ yielded a new tetranuclear gold thiocluster, {[PhS(AuPPh₃)₂]²⁺(BF₄ ⁻)}₂, which involves Au…Au bonds that differ in strength. The structures of the compounds obtained were established by X-ray structural analysis¹H and³¹P NMR spectroscopy, and FAB mass spectrometry. For Part 4, seeIzv. Akad. Nauk, Ser.
