Isostructural M2L4 molecular capsules with anthracene shells: synthesis, crystal structures, and fluorescent properties

An isostructural series of M(2)L(4) molecular capsules quantitatively self-assembled from two M(II) ions (M=Zn, Cu, Pt, Pd, Ni, Co, and Mn) and four bent ligands with embedded anthracene fluorophores. X-ray crystallographic analysis (for M=Zn, Cu, Ni, and Pd) confirmed the formation of closed-shell structures in which the large interior cavities inside the molecular capsules (about 1 nm) were shielded by eight anthracene panels. Analysis of the Zn(II) and Cu(II) structures showed the inclusion of an unusual triad guest cluster; four MeCN molecules, one water molecule, and one CF(3)SO(3)(-) ion were located inside the cavities. Full characterization by NMR spectroscopy and MS (ESI-TOF) demonstrated that the molecular capsules were quite stable and persist in solution. The fluorescence properties of the isostructural capsules were strongly dependent on the identity of the metal species: the Zn(II) capsule emitted strong blue fluorescence with a high quantum yield (Φ=0.8), in sharp contrast to the weakly emissive Ni(II) and Mn(II) capsules and the completely non-emissive Pd(II), Pt(II), and Co(II) capsules. On the other hand, the Cu(II) capsule exhibited solvatochromism and solvent-dependent emission behavior; blue emission of the capsule was "on" in DMSO but "off" in MeCN.

Core-modified porphyrin incorporating a phenolate donor. Characterization of Pd(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Fe(III) complexes

Coordinating properties of acetoxybenziporphyrin, (TPBPOAc)H, have been investigated for a number of metal ions. Insertion of Ni, Pd, and Fe results in the cleavage of the acetoxy group leading to complexes (TPBPO)Ni(II), (TPBPO)Pd(II), and (TPBPO)Fe(III)X containing a M-O bond. No cleavage is observed with Zn(II) and Cd(II), which form complexes (TPBPOAc)M(II)Cl, where M = Zn, Cd. (TPBPO)Ni(II) can also be obtained from the dication of hydroxybenziporphyrin, [(TPBPOH)H(3)]Cl(2), which is prepared by acid hydrolysis of the acetoxy compound. The diamagnetic (TPBPO)Ni(II) can be transformed into the paramagnetic (TPBPOAc)Ni(II)Cl in a reaction with acetyl chloride. X-ray structures have been determined for (TPBPO)Pd(II) and (TPBPOAc)Zn(II)Cl. In the palladium species, the phenolate moiety forms a strong bond to the Pd ion and an unusual interaction geometry is observed, enforced by the macrocyclic environment. Association of a TFA molecule to the phenolic oxygen does not cause significant structural changes in the (TPBPO)Pd(II) molecule. In (TPBPOAc)Zn(II)Cl, the metal ion weakly interacts with the phenolic fragment. The paramagnetic Fe(III) complexes, (TPBPO)Fe(III)X, have been investigated with (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The observed spectral patterns are consistent with the presence of a high-spin Fe(III) center and pi delocalization of spin density onto the phenoxide fragment. Each of the compounds (TPBPO)Fe(III)X exists in solution as a mixture of two isomers, which for X = I are shown to remain in a temperature-dependent equilibrium. The observed isomerism results from two nonequivalent orientations of the axial halide with respect to the puckered macrocyclic ring.     

Potentiometric, spectroscopic and thermal studies on the metal chelates of 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthalenol

The synthesis and characterization of Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Pd(II) and UO2(II) chelates of 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthalenol (TAN) were reported. The dissociation constants of the ligand and the stability constants of the metal complexes were calculated pH-metrically at 25 degrees C and 0.1 M ionic strength. The solid complexes were characterized by elemental and thermal analyses, molar conductance, IR, magnetic and diffuse reflectance spectra. The complexes were found to have the formulae [M(L)2] for M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II); [M(L)X].nH2O for M = Cu(II) (X = AcO, n = 3), Pd(II) (X = Cl, n = 0) and UO2(II) (X = NO3, n = 0), and [Fe(L)Cl2(H2O)].2H2O. The molar conductance data reveal that the chelates are non-electrolytes. IR spectra show that the ligand is coordinated to the metal ions in a terdentate manner with ONN donor sites of the naphthyl OH, azo N and thiazole N. An octahedral structure is proposed for Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and UO2(II) complexes and a square planar structure for Cu(II) and Pd(II) complexes. The thermal behaviour of these chelates shows that water molecules (coordinated and hydrated) and anions are removed in two successive steps followed immediately by decomposition of the ligand molecule in the subsequent steps. The relative thermal stability of the chelates is evaluated. The final decomposition products are found to be the corresponding metal oxides. The thermodynamic activation parameters, such as E*, delta H*, delta S* and delta G* are calculated from the TG curves.     

Synthesis and coordination chemistry of an alkyne functionalised bis(pyrazolyl)methane ligand

The alkyne functionalised bidentate N-donor ligand (2-propargyloxyphenyl)bis(pyrazolyl)methane was prepared in high yield from the reaction of (2-hydroxyphenyl)bis(pyrazolyl)methane with propargyl bromide in the presence of base. A series of transition-metal complexes including [MCl2] (M=Cu, Co, Ni, Zn, Pt), [M2](NO3)2 (M=Cu, Co, Ni, Zn), [Ag]NO3 and [Pd(dppe)](OTf)2 were prepared and characterised by spectroscopic techniques. In addition, ligand as well as the Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes [CoCl2]2, [ZnCl2] were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The organometallic gold(I) and platinum(II) acetylide complexes [Pz2CH(C6H(4)-2-OCH2C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CAuPPh3)] and trans-[{Pz2CHC6H(4)-2-OCH2C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C}2Pt(PPh3)2] were prepared from and [AuCl(PPh3)] and trans-[PtCl2(PPh3)2], respectively. Treatment of these complexes with [Pd(OTf)2(dppe)] or [Cu(MeCN)4]PF6 results in formation of the cationic, mixed-metal complexes, which were isolated (Pt/Pd, Au/Pt) or detected by electrospray mass spectrometry (Au/Cu, Pt/Cu).     

Synthesis and Antibacterial Activity of Metal Complexes of Cephalothin

The interactions of cephalothin (Hcephalo) with transition metal(II) ions and imidazole have been investigated. The complexes [M(cephalo)Cl], (where M=Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Pd(II)) and [M(cephalo)(Im)Cl] (where M=Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Im=Imidazole) were obtained and characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The IR and the ¹H-NMR spectra of the complexes suggest that the cephalothin behaves as a monoanionic tridentate ligand. They have been screened for antibacterial activity against several bacteria, and the results are compared with the activity of cephalothin.     

Synthesis and studies on metal coordination with a novel carboxyamide ligand

Novel complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Pd(II) with the new ligand [N,N'-bis(2-carboxy-1-oxo-phenelenyl)ethylenediamine] (H2L) have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, thermal, infrared, electronic, 1H NMR and EPR spectral studies. Infrared and 1H NMR spectra show that H2L acts as a binegative tetradentate ligand. Coordination occurs through deprotonated carboxylate oxygens and nondeprotonated amido nitrogens in all the complexes. Electronic spectral studies and magnetic moment values suggest N2O2 coordination around each metal centre with strong field square planar chromophores. The probable structures of the complexes have been assigned on the basis of spectral studies. The complex formation between M(II) [M(II) = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II)] and (L2-) has also been studied potentiometrically in 75% aqueous DMF at 25 degrees C in 0.1 M NaClO4. The stability constants were found to follow the order: Mn(II) < Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II).     

Influence of the Degree of Chitosan Sulfoethylation on the Sorption of Palladium(II) Chloride Complexes from Multicomponent Solutions

The influence exerted by the degree of substitution of sulfoethylated chitosan cross-linked with glutaraldehyde on the sorption of Pd(II) chloride complexes from multicomponent solutions containing Pt(IV), Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II), and Zn(II) was studied. The sorption of transition metal ions under the conditions of the experiment at pH 0.5–5.0 is virtually fully suppressed. The strongest interfering effect on the Pd(II) sorption is exerted by Pt(IV). Calculation of the selectivity coefficients K_Pd/Pt shows that the selectivity of the Pd(II) sorption relative to Pt(IV) increases with an increase in the degree of substitution of chitosan from 0.3 to 0.5. Integral kinetic curves of the Pd(II) sorption were obtained, and the dependences were subjected to mathematical processing using the models of diffusion and chemical kinetics. The equilibrium in the palladium(II) chloride solution–sorbent system is attained within 40 min. Pd and Pt are quantitatively desorbed from the sorbent surface under dynamic conditions with 3.5 M HCl solution.     

The vibrational spectra of complexes with planar monothio-oxamides—I. The Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of N,N′-dimethylmonothio-oxamide

The new complexes M(LH)₂ (M = Pd,Pt), ML(M = Pd,Cu) and ML · H₂O (M = Ni,Zn), where LH₂ = N,N′-dimethylmonothio-oxamide, have been prepared. The complexes were characterized by metal analyses, thermal methods and spectral (i.r., Raman, u.v.—vis.) studies. The vibrational analyses of the complexes are given using NH/ND, CH₃/CD₃ and metal isotopic substitutions. The Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II) and Cu(II) compounds are square planar. The monoanion LH⁻ shows a chelated bidentate S,O-coordination, while the doubly deprotonated L²⁻ acts as a bridging S,N/N,O-tetradentate ligand giving polymeric structures.     

Synthesis and photoluminescent properties of a Schiff-base ligand and its mononuclear Zn(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) metal complexes

Mononuclear Zn(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) metal complexes of Schiff-base ligand(HL₁) derived from 8-acetyl-7-hydroxycoumarin and P-phenylenediamine were prepared and characterized by microanalytical, mass, UV–Vis, IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ESR, conductance and fluorescence studies. The measured low molar conductance values in DMSO indicate that the complexes are non-electrolytes. The structures of the solid complexes under study are established by using IR, electronic and ESR spectroscopy suggesting that Zn(II) and Ni(II) complexes are octahedral, Cd(II) complex is tetrahedral, Cu(II) and Pd(II) complexes are square planar. The ESR spectrum of the Cu(II) complex in DMSO at 298 and 150 K was recorded and its salient features are reported, it supports the mononuclear structure. The Schiff base exhibited photoluminescence originating from intraligand (π–π*) transitions. Metal-mediated enhancement is observed on complexation of HL with Zn(II) and Cd(II), whereas metal-mediated fluorescence quenching occurs in Cu(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II).     

Cation-induced synthesis of new polyoxopalladates

Seven polyoxopalladate compounds, [Pd(15)(SeO(3))(10)(μ(3)-O)(10)](10-), with Na(+) (1) and K(+) (2) as counterions, and Na(6)[M(II){Pd(12)(SeO(3))(8)(μ(4)-O)(8)}]·nH(2)O (M = Co (3), Zn (4), Ni (5), Cu (6), Mn (7); n = 7-9), have been prepared and characterized by SXRD, FT-IR, UV-vis, EA, TGA, and ESI-MS. These compounds comprise two distinct cluster configurations, {Pd(15)} and {M(II)Pd(12)}, which reveals the possibility of obtaining desired noble metal clusters with a certain nuclearity by using different cations as potential structural directing or template agents in synthesis. All compounds showed apparent absorptions in the visible light region, while 3 and 7 were found to show paramagnetic behavior typical of mononuclear Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes with zero-field splitting.     

ENERGY RELAXATION MECHANISM IN Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II) and Zn(II) PORPHYRINS

Abstract—Picosecond absorption spectroscopy was used to determine the intramolecular energy relaxation processes occurring in Ni(II). Pd(II), Pt(II), and Zn(II) protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester. Picosecond data on the rate of ground state repopulation and the kinetics of a transient intermediate made it possible to determine the lifetimes of the excited singlet state of Ni, Pd, and Zn porphyrins as 10±2ps, 19±3ps, and 2.6±0.5 ps, respectively, and<8 ps for Pt porphyrin. On the basis of these data. the nonfluorescent and nonphosphorescent property of Ni porphyrin can be interpreted in terms of internal conversion to a lower lying singlet d-d level which is not the case for the strongly phosphorescent Pd and Pt porphyrins.     

Coordination of carbonyl oxygen in the complexes of polymeric <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-crotonyl-2-hydroxyphenylazomethine

The Schiff base N-crotonyl-2-hydroxyphenylazomethine HL, derived from the reaction of acrylamide and salicylaldehyde, was synthesised. Polymeric complexes were obtained from the reaction of polymeric HL with divalent metals. The mode of bonding and overall geometry of the complexes were determined through physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods and compared with that previously reported for the analogous monomeric ligand. These studies revealed tetrahedral geometries around the metal centres for Mn(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) complexes of general formula [M(L)Cl], octahedral for Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of general formula [M′(L)Cl(H₂O)₂], and square planar for Pd(II) complex of general formula [Pd(L)Cl].     

Non-aqueous,reversed-phase,high-performance,thin-layer chromatography and column liquid chromatography of metal complexes of porphine

Summary The chromatographic mobility of 21H, 23H-porphine and its Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pd(II) complexes were investigated by high-performance thin-layer chromatography on an octadecyl-bonded, silica gel plate with various polar organic solvents including alcohols, acetonitrile, dimethylsulfoxide and propylenecarbonate. The mobility generally decreases according to the central metal ion of the complex as follows: Zn(II)>(free porphine)>Ni(II)>Pd(II)>Cu(II). Methanol is a good choice of solvent for the separation of these metal porphine complexes. Successful separation of porphine and the four metal complexes is accomplished within 13 min on a LiChrosorb RP-18 column with methanol eluent.     

Electroreduction of Ammonia and Hydroxyammonia Complexes of Divalent Metals: Effect of the Ligand Concentration and the EDL Structure

Kinetics and mechanism of electroreduction of complexes Pd(NH₃)₄ ²⁺ on a dropping mercury electrode (DME) and a Pd electrode, as well as ammonia complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) and hydroxyammonia complexes of Zn(II) on DME at different concentrations of ammonia and supporting electrolytes and different pH values are discussed. The half-wave potentials of electroreduction of ammonia complexes of Pd(II) and Ni(II) on DME in the absence of a polarographic maximum obey an equation that takes into account the effect the EDL structure has on the rate of a slow outer-sphere electrochemical stage. As opposed to Pd(II) complexes, the reduction of the other complexes involves preceding reversible chemical stages, which yield diammonia complexes undergoing a direct reduction on DME. The reasons for the emergence of a polarographic maximum upon an increase in the concentration of reduced complexes and the time of recording an instant current are discussed.     

Chloroform extraction of metal ethyl xanthates from hydrochloric acid media

The chloroform extraction of 32 elements (Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Cd, Ge, Sn, Pb, V, As, Sb, Bi, Cu, Ag, Au, Mn, Re, Ga, In, Tl, Ce, Se, Te, Cr, Mo, U, Pt, Pd, Rh, Ir, Ru and Os) from O.1-10M hydrochloric acid media in the presence of potassium ethyl xanthate has been studied. The oxidation states in which some elements react, and potential analytical separations, are discussed. Pd(II), As(III) and Se(IV) are completely extracted as ethyl xanthate complexes, Te(IV) is almost completely extracted, and Au(III) is largely extracted over the range of acid concentration investigated. Mn(II), Zn, Rh(III), Ir(IV), Ru(III), Os(IV), Cr(III), Cr(VI), Ce(III) and Ce(IV) are not extracted. Ge is partly extracted from 6-10M media as the chloro-complex. Depending on the acid concentration, the remaining elements are all partially extracted as xanthate complexes.     

Distribution coefficients and cation-exchange behaviour of some ammines and aquo complexes of metallic elements in ammonium nitrate solution

Comparative cation-exchange distribution coefficients of ammines and aquo complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Cd, Zn, Ag, Co(II)/(III), Hg(II), Pd(II), Au(III) and Pt(II) were determined in 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 M ammonium nitrate solution. The values for mercury(II) in ammonium chloride and of the ammine of copper(II) in ammonium citrate and ammonium sulphosalicylate solutions were also measured. The ion-exchange behaviour of the ammines is discussed and some possible separations are demonstrated by the experimental elution curves for the ion pairs Mg-Ni(II), Ca-Zn, Yb-Cd and Fe(III)-Cu(II).     

Synthesis,spectral, thermal,antibacterial and molecular docking studies of some metal(II) complexes of 2-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylamino)naphthalene-1,4-dione

Research on Chemical Intermediates - The ketoamine, 2-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-ylamino)naphthalene-1,4-dione(HL) and its Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Pd(II) and Zn(II) complexes were synthesized and...     

The vibrational spectra of complexes with planar monothio-oxamides—II. Complexes of N(s)-methylmonothio-oxamide

The new complexes Pd(SH₂)₂ · H₂O, M(SH) · H₂O (M = Ni, Pd, Pt) and M(SH) · 0.5H₂O (M = Cu, Zn), where SH₃ = N_(s)-methylmonothio-oxamide, have been prepared. The complexes were characterized by metal analyses, thermal methods and i.r., Raman and u.v./vis spectroscopic studies. The vibrational analyses of the complexes are given using NH/ND, CH₃/CD₃ and metal isotopicsubstitutions. The Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II) and Cu(II) compounds are square planar. The vibrational spectra show that in Pd(SH₂)₂ · H₂O the coordination occurs via the sulphur atom of the deprotonated thioamide group and the oxygen atom of the neutral primary amide group, in a bidentate chelated fashion. The doubly deprotonated SH²⁻ ion behaves as a bridging bis-bidentate ligand giving polymeric structures.     

Influence of the thiazole backbone on the structural, redox, and optical properties of dithiolene and diselenolene complexes

Metalation of N-methyl-1,3-thiazoline-2-thione followed by reaction with elemental S or Se affords a simple and efficient approach to N-methyl-1,3-thiazoline-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate (Me-thiazdt) and the diselenolate (Me-thiazds) analogue. In the presence of metal II centers such as Zn, Ni, and Pd these ligands afford the corresponding dianionic dithiolene and diselenolene complexes. The Ni and Pd dianionic complexes are easily oxidized into the monoanionic species. Complexes were isolated and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Most often a substitutional S/N-Me disorder is observed, attributable to the square-planar trans complexes disordered on two positions or coexistence of both cis and trans isomers on inversion centers. Monoanionic complexes exhibit a strong NIR absorption band with epsilon values up to 33 750 M(-1) cm(-1).
