Complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and manganese(II) with tridentate Schiff base ligand

Summary A series of metal complexes with new tridentate Schiff base derived from salicylaldehyde and furfuraldehyde with o-phenyldiamine have been prepared and characterised by physical and chemical methods. Electronic spectra, room temperature magnetic moment values, e.p.r. and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies suggest an octahedral geometry for all the complexes, where low molar conductance values are in accord with their non-electrolytic nature. The thermal stability of the complexes is discussed and the ligand-to-metal bonding modes discussed.     

Water exchange dynamics of manganese(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) ions in aqueous solution

The first row transition metal ions Mn(2+), Co(2+), and Ni(2+) have been studied by classical umbrella sampling molecular dynamics simulations. The water exchange mechanisms, estimates of reaction rates, as well as structural changes during the activation process are discussed. Mn(2+) was found to react via an I(A) mechanism, whereas Co(2+) and Ni(2+) both proceed via I(D). Reaction rate constants are generally higher than those obtained by experiment but the simply constructed metal(II) ion-water potential reproduces the relative order quite well.     

N-Phthaloylglycinate ternary complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) metal ions and aromatic mono,bi and tridentate amines

Complexes of N-phthaloylglycinate (N-phthgly) and Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II and Cd^II containing imidazole (imi), N-methylimidazole (mimi), 2,2-bipyridyl (bipy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and tridentate amines such as 2,2,2-terpyridine (terpy) and 2,4,6-(2-pyridyl)s-triazine (tptz), were prepared and characterized by conventional methods, i.r. spectra and by thermogravimetric analysis. For imi and mimi ternary complexes, the general formula [M(imi/mimi)₂(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II applies. For Cd^II ternary complexes with imi, [Cd(imi)₃(N-phthgly)₂]·2H₂O applies. For the bi and tridentate ligands, ternary complexes of the formula [M(L)(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O were obtained, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II; L = bipy, phen, tptz and terpy. In all complexes, N-phthgly acts as a monodentate ligand, coordinating metal ions through the carboxylate oxygen, except for the ternary complexes of Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II with mimi and Cu^II and Zn^II with imi, where the N-phthgly acts as a bidentate ligand, coordinating the metal ions through both carboxylate oxygen atoms.     

Synthesis and chemical characterization of biologically important complexes of vanillin thiosemicarbazone with manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), and mercury(II)

Syntheses, structures, and properties of zinc(II), cadmium(II), cobalt(II), and manganese(II) coordination polymers with tetraiodoterephthalate

The coordination chemistry of a rigid periodinated ligand, 2,3,5,6-tetraiodo-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H₂BDC-I₄), with a series of transition metal ions has been explored to afford five new coordination polymers {[M(BDC-I₄)(MeOH)₄](H₂BDC-I₄)(MeOH)₂} _n (M?=?Zn^II for 1, Cd^II for 2, Co^II for 3 and Mn^II for 4) and {[Mn(BDC-I₄)(MeOH)₄](DMF)} _n (5). All these complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and X-ray crystallography. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that complexes 1?C4 are isostructural and have a one-dimensional chain structure. Upon the addition of the solvent DMF, the infinite linear chain array in 4 is converted to a 1-D wave-like chain motif in 5 with a different space group ( $ P\overline{1} $ for 4 and P2₁/c for 5). The difference between structures 1?C4 and 5 can be attributed to the coordination mode of carboxylate changing from trans to cis fashion. The Zn^II and Cd^II complexes 1 and 2 display similar emissions in the solid state, which essentially are intraligand transitions.     

N-acetyl-DL-leucinate cobalt(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes

Summary Complexes of the type M(AcLeu)₂ · B₂ (M = Co^II, Ni^II or Zn^II; B = H₂O, py, 3-pic, 4-pic; AcLeu =N-acetyl-DL-leucinate ion) and M(AcLeu)₂ B (M = Co^II or Zn^II and B = o-phen) were prepared and investigated by means of magnetic and spectroscopic measurements. The i.r. spectra of all the complexes are consistent with bidentate coordination of the amino acid to the metal ion. The room temperature solid state electronic spectra indicate that the symmetry of this species is closer toD _4h and that MO₆ and MO₄N₂ chromophores are present in the M(AcLeu)₂ · 2 H₂O and M(AcLeu)₂B_n · x H₂O (B = py, 3-pic, 4-pic, n=2 and x=0 for M = Ni^II; B = o-phen, n=1 and x=0 for M = Co^II; B = py, 3-pic, 4-pic, n=1 and x=1 for M = Co^II) complexes, respectively. By comparing the Dq values of the amino acid and those of other N-substituted amino acids previously studied, a spectrochemical series of the the cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes is proposed. The¹ H n.m.r. spectra of the zinc(II) complexes confirm the proposed stereochemistry.

Complex formation of polyethyleneimine with copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions

An influence of the structure of a globule of polyethyleneimine on the complex formation of one with the copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions is described. A change of the coordination number from the pH of solution for complexes of ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, and polyethyleneimine with metal ions was found. The fraction of monomer links, bound with metal ions, depends on the volume of the globule of macromolecule as well as the condition of the proceeding reaction. The reaction of complex formation is controlled by the diffusion of metal ions into the polymer globule in solution. The effective equilibrium constants of complex formation were found. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 40: 914–922, 2002; DOI 10.1002/pola.10157     

Polymeric coordination compounds of nickel(II), cobalt(II), and zinc(II) with oxalate ions as symmetric tetradentate bridging ligands

Summary Coordination compounds having the general formula ML₂Ox are described, with Ox = oxalato dianion; M = Ni, Co and Zn; 1 = water and imidazoles. The compounds are characterised by chemical analyses, i.r., far-i.r., Raman, ligand field and e.s.r. spectra. Magnetic susceptibility measurements at low temperatures indicate a polymeric structure of ant i-ferromagnetically coupled M²⁺ ions.All physical measurements agree with a polymeric structure built up by oxalate ions as tetradentate bridging ligands forming one-dimensional linear chains. Flach metal ion is coordinated by four oxalate oxygens and two donor atoms (N or O) in distorted octahedron. For M = Ni, the magnetic susceptibility measurements can be best described with the Heisenberg model including a zero-field splitting; for M = Co, the Ising model gives the best results. The exchange coupling constants, IJ1, vary from 9-13 cm^–1.

Chelated complexes of cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), mercury(II), nickel(II), uranyl(II) and zinc(II) with benzil bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone)

Summary Complexes of Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II, Cd^II, Hg^II and UO ₂ ^II with benzil bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone), H₂BPT, have been synthesized and their structures assigned based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility and spectroscopic measurements. The i.r. spectra suggest that the ligand behaves as a binegative quadridentate (NSSN) (Co^II, Cu^II, Hg^II and UO ₂ ^II complexes) or as a binegative quadridentate-neutral bidentate chelating agent (Ni^II, Zn^II and Cd^II complexes). Octahedral structures for the Co^II and Ni^II complexes and square-planar structure for the Cu^II complex are suggested on the basis of magnetic and spectral evidence. The crystal field parameters (Dq, B and _B) for the Co^II complex are calculated and agree fairly well with the values reported for known octahedral complexes. The ligand can be used for the microdetermination of Ni^II ions of concentration in the 0.4–6×10^–4 mol l^–1 range and the apparent formation constant for the species generated in solution has also been calculated.

Structural studies on cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes of 1-malonyl-bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazide)

Summary Several new complexes of the title ligand (H₂MPTS) with Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, and Cd^II have been prepared. Structural assignments of the complexes have been made based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic moment and spectral (i.r.,¹H n.m.r., reflectance) studies. The compounds are non-conductors in dimethylsulphoxide. The neutral molecule is coordinated to the metal(II) sulphate as a bidentate ligandvia the two carbonyl groups. The ligand reacts with the metal(II) chlorides with the liberation of two hydrogen ions, behaving as a bianionic quadridentate (NONO) donor. Enolization is confirmed by the pH-titration of H₂ MPTS and its metal(II) complexes against NaOH. A distorted octahedral structure is proposed for the Cu^II complex, while a square planar structure is suggested for both Co^II and Ni^II complexes. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed in EtOH and buffer solutions, their apparent formation constants and the ranges for obedience to Beer's law are reported for Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II ions. The ligand pK values are calculated. The antimicrobial activity of H₂ MPTS and its Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Mn^II complexes is demonstrated.
