Four unit linking groups II. Some novel smectic C materials

About 40 diverse phenyl benzoate esters incorporating a trans-1-4-disubstituted cyclohexane ring joined to the central aromatic core by new four unit linking groups (C₄H₈, C₄H₆, C₃H₆O and C₃H₄O) have been synthesized. The effect of various lateral substituents (F, Cl, CN and Br) and especially two fluorine atoms in the 2,3-positions of the 4-n-alkoxybenzoate part of the esters has been investigated. Three homologous series of 5-n-alkyl-2-(4-phenyl)pyrimidines incorporating the same four unit linking groups have also been prepared. Many members of the ester and pyrimidine series exhibit enantiotropic smectic C mesophases at moderately elevated temperatures. Several esters and pyrimidines have been found to improve the surface alignment and temperature range of chiral smectic C mixtures for surface stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystal displays. The effect of the new four unit linking groups on the liquid crystal transition temperatures, rotational viscosity and spontaneous polarization of their host structures in a standard chiral C mixture has been studied and compared to that of analogous materials containing no central linkage and standard central linkages (-, C₂H₄, CH₂O and COO). Several lactate ester derivatives incorporating the four unit linking groups have also been prepared and been found to exhibit a moderately high spontaneous polarization.

Thermal decomposition study on mixed ligand thymine complexes of divalent nickel(II) with dianions of some dicarboxylic acids

Thermal decomposition of mixed ligand thymine (2,4-dihydroxy-5-methylpyrimidine) complexes of divalent Ni(II) with aspartate, glutamate and ADA (N-2-acetamido)iminodiacetate dianions was monitored by TG, DTG and DTA analysis in static atmosphere of air. The decomposition course and steps of complexes [Ni(C₅H₆N₂O₂)(C₄H₅NO₄)²⁻(H₂O)₂]·H₂O, [Ni(C₅H₆N₂O₂)(C₅H₇NO₄)²⁻(H₂O)₂]·H₂O and [Ni(C₅H₆N₂O₂)(C₆H₈N₂O₅)²⁻(H₂O)₂]·1.5H₂O were analyzed. The final decomposition products are found to be the corresponding metal oxides. The kinetic parameters namely, activation energy (E*), enthalpy (ΔH*), entropy (ΔS*) and free energy change of decomposition (ΔG*) are calculated from the TG curves using Coats–Redfern and Horowitz–Metzger equations. The stability order found for these complexes follows the trend aspartate > ADA > glutamate.     

Dinuclear molybdenum complexes derived from diphenols: electrochemical interactions and reduced species

The new diphenolato complexes [{Mo(NO){HB(dmpz)₃}Cl}₂Q] where dmpz = 3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl and Q = OC₆H₄(C₆H₄O (n = 1 or 2), OC₆H₄CR=CRC₆H₄O (R = H or Et), and OC₆H₄CH=CHC₆H₄CH=CHC₆H₄O have been prepared and their electrochemical properties (cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry) compared with previously reported analogues where Q = OC₆H₄O, OC₆H₄EC₆H₄O (E = SO₂, CO and S), OC₆H₄ (CO)C₆H₄ C₆H₄(CO)C₆H₄O and 1,5- and 2,7-O₂C₁₀H₆. The electrochemical interaction between the redox centres in the new complexes is very weak, in contrast to that in the 1,4-benzenediolato and naphthalendiolato species. The EPR spectra of the reduced mixed-valence species [{Mo(NO){HB(dmpz)₃}Cl}₂Q]⁻ where Q = 1,3- and 1,4-OC₆H₄O and OC₆H₄SC₆H₄O shows that they are valence-trapped at room temperature, whereas those of the dianions [{Mo(NO){HB(dmpz)₃}Cl}₂Q]²⁻ where Q = 1,4-OC₆H₄O, OC₆H₄EC₆H₄O (E = CO or S) and OC₆H₄CH=CHC₆H₄CH=CHC₆H₄O shows that the unpaired spins on each molybdenum centre are strongly correlated (J, the spin exchange integral A_Mo, the metal-hyperfine coupling constant). The electrochemical properties and the comproportionation constants for the reaction [{Mo(NO){HB(dmpz)₃} Cl}₂Q] + [{Mo(NO){HB(dmpz)₃}Cl}O]₂]²⁻2[{Mo(NO) {HB(dmpz)₃}Cl}₂Q]⁻ where Q = diphenolato bridge, are compared with related compounds containing benzenediamido and dianilido bridges.     

Effect of molecular structure on the phase behaviour of some liquid crystalline compounds and their mixtures XII. Binary mixtures of homologues of unsymmetrical 1,4-phenylene bis (4-substituted benzoates)

Twentyfour liquid crystalline esters of the type 4-(n-C_nH_2n+1O)C₆H₄COOC₆H₄OOCC₆H₄-X-4 have been investigated for their phase behaviour. These compounds constitute six homologous series that differ from each other by the substituent X. The latter varies between CH₃O, CH₃, Cl, CN, NO₂, and n-C_nH_2n+1O, and the number (n) of carbons varies, within a homologous series, between 6, 8, 14, and 16. All possible binary mixtures made from any two homologues were prepared and characterized for their mesophase behaviour by differential scanning calorimetry and polarizing optical microscopy.     

Cationic cobaltammine as anion receptor: Synthesis, characterization, single crystal X-ray structure and packing analysis of hexaamminecobalt(III) chloride (R,R)-tartrate monohydrate

In an effort to utilize the [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ cation as a new anion receptor (binding agent) for dihydroxy dicarboxylate anion i.e., tartrate, orange single crystals of hexaamminecobalt(III) chloride (R,R)-tartrate monohydrate, [Co(NH₃)₆]Cl(C₄H₄O₆)·H₂O, were obtained by reacting hexaamminecobalt(III) chloride with potassium–sodium tartrate tetrahydrate in a 1:1 molar ratio in hot water. The single crystal X-ray structure determination of [Co(NH₃)₆]Cl(C₄H₄O₆)·H₂O revealed that a distinctive network of hydrogen bonding interactions (N–HO, N–HCl⁻, O–HO) stabilize the crystal lattice. This is the first complex salt of hexaamminecobalt(III) with dihydroxy dicarboxylate anion i.e., tartrate.     

Novel liquid-crystalline derivatives of transition metals. The effect of the molecular geometry of the ligands on the mesogenic properties of tetracoordinated copper(II) complexes

The synthesis, characterization and thermal behaviour of several new series of copper(II) complexes derived from carbonylic compounds and their Schiff's bases are reported. The complexes are of two types; [Cu(C₆H₃O(R)-C(X) = O)₂], (type I) and [Cu(C₆H₃O(R)-C(X) = N-R')₂] (type II) where R = - OOC-C₆H₄OC₁₀H₂₁-p, and the position of R is 4 or 5; R' = CH₃, n-C₁₀H₂₁, p-n-C₁₀H₂₁O(C₆H₄)-; X = H, CH₃. In type I complexes, only the compound with X = H and R in position 5 showed mesomorphism. For type II complexes, all the Schiff's bases complexes of copper(II) derived from 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde showed thermotropic mesophases (smectic C and nematic), whereas the complexes derived from 2,5-dihydroxybenzaldehyde were only mesogenic when the imine was derived from methylamine. None of the complexes derived from the ketone (2,4 or 2,5-dihydroxy derivatives) showed liquid-crystalline properties. X-ray studies of four complexes of type II were carried out. The anisotropy of the magnetic susceptibility has a negative sign for complexes with R in position 4 and a positive sign for 2,5-derivative complexes. The relationship between molecular structure and mesomorphic behaviour is discussed.     

Four unit linking groups III. Liquid crystals of negative dielectric anisotropy

A series of 1-n-alkoxy-2,3-difluoro-4-[3-(trans-4-pentylcyclohexyl)propyloxy]-benzenes has been synthesized. Several homologues exhibit an enantiotropic nematic phase of moderately strong negative dielectric anisotropy (Δε ≈ 5) at or just above room temperature. An analogous series of three-ring diethers also including some (E)-3-allyloxy derivatives possesses enantiotropic, wide range nematic phases also of moderately strong negative dielectric anisotropy, but at elevated temperatures. The synthesis and liquid crystal transition temperatures of these 2,3-difluoroquinone derivatives are described and comparisons are made with the transition temperatures of the corresponding materials incorporating standard central linkages (-, C₂H₄, CH₂O and COO).

Crystal Engineering of Multiple-component Organic Compound:Organic co-Crystals of the Functional Groups of Carboxyl and Amino with Persistent Hydrogen Bonding Motifs

Three small organic molecular co-crystal compounds (C₃N₆H₆)·(C₆H₁₀O₄)·H₂O(1), C₃H₈N₂O(3) and (H₄btec)₂·(4,4'-bipy)(4)(H₄btec=1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, 4,4'-bipy=4,4'-bipyridine) and one coordination supramolecular compound [Mn(C₂O₄)(H₂O)₂]·C₆H₁₁NO₂(2) were synthesized by hydrothermal reaction.

Structural analyses reveal that these 2D or 3D supramolecular networks of the compounds were formed by C―H···O, N―H···O, N―H···N, O―H···O and O―H···N hydrogen bonds. Therein, the functional groups of ―COOH, ―NH₂ and ―OH play important roles in constructing supramolecular architectures.

Two 3D multifunctional lanthanide metal-organic frameworks(MOFs), Pr(HTCPS)(H₂O)·2DMF·C₂H₅OH· 5H₂O(JUC-93) and Pr₃(TCPS)₂(NO₃)(H₂O)₄(DMA)₂·2DMA·C₂H₅OH·3H₂O(JUC-94)[H₄TCPS=tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)- silane, DMF=N,N'-dimethylformamide, DMA=N,N'-dimethylacetamide and JUC=Jilin University China] were synthesized by the self-assembly of a rigid silicon-centered tetrahedral carboxylate ligand H₄TCPS and Pr(III) ions in different solvothermal reactions. X-Ray crystallography revealed that they exhibited a rare CaF₂ topology framework, constructed from the 4-connected tetrahedral TCPS unit with the 8-connected dinuclear praseodymium cluster unit and trinuclear praseodymium cluster unit, respectively. In addition, the luminescent and magnetic properties of the two compounds were investigated.

Synthesis and structural characterization of mixed ligand η-2-hydroxyacetophenone complexes of cobalt(III)

A tridentate Schiff base ligand [(CH₃)₂NCH₂CH₂N=C(CH₃)C₆H₄OH)] (LH) has been synthesized from 2-hydroxyacetophenone and 2-dimethylaminoethylamine. This ligand forms the neutral complexes [Co(L)(N₃){o-(CH₃C=O)C₆H₄O}] (1) and [Co(L)(SCN){o-(CH₃C=O)C₆H₄O}]·1/2H₂O (2) in presence of equivalent amount of Co(II) acetate, and sodium azide for 1 and sodium thiocyanate for 2. The complexes have been characterized by spectroscopic and crystallographic methods. The coordination geometry around Co(III) in both the complexes is distorted octahedral with one tridentate ligand L, one bidentate 2-hydroxyacetophenone and one monodentate azide for 1 and thiocyanate for 2. The azide and thiocyanate ligands in the two complexes occupy different positions relative to the coordination sites of L.     

Degradation Method for Preparing Organo-Arsenic and-Antimony Polytungstates and Comparative Study of Corresponding Polymolybdates

In repeating and extending the syntheses of organo-arsenic polytungstates,we found that the "Degradation Method",taking sodium metatungstate as the starting material,was much more profita-ble.The known compound (CN3H6)5[(C6H5As)2W6O25H]2H2O(1) was read-ily reproduced with a high yield.A new compound (CN3H6)6[(p-OH,m-NO2C6H3As)2W6O25](2) was likewise synthesized.This "Degradation Method" using the reaction of sodium metatungstate with organo-anti-monate led to the isolation of four compounds with definite composition although amorphous in appearance.The preparations of organo-arsenic polymolybdates and organo-antimony polymolybdates were also studied and six new organo-arsenic polymolybdates were isolated: (CN3H6)5[(C6H5As)2MoO25H]H2O(3),(CN3H6)4[(n-C3H7As)2Mo5O21]2H O (4),(CNH)4[(n-C3H7As)2Mo6O24](5),Cs2[(CH3)2AsMo4O15H](6),相似文献   

New organogold(I) complexes: Synthesis, structure, and dynamic behavior of the polynuclear organogold diphenylmethane and diphenylethane derivatives

Two organogold derivatives of diphenylmethane and diphenylethane, Ph₃PAu(o-C₆H₄)CH₂(C₆H₄-o)AuPPh₃ (1) and Ph₃PAu(o-C₆H₄)(CH₂)₂(C₆H₄-o)AuPPh₃ (2), have been synthesized by the reaction of ClAuPPh₃ with Li(o-C₆H₄)CH₂(C₆H₄-o)Li and Li(o-C₆H₄)(CH₂)₂(C₆H₄-o)Li respectively. The interaction of 1 with dppe results in the replacement of the two PPh₃ groups to give a macrocyclic compound (3) that includes an Au Au bond. Compounds 1 and 2 react with one or two equivalents of [Ph₃PAu]BF₄ to form new types of cationic complex [CH₂(C₆H₄-o)₂(AuPPh₃)₃]BF₄ (4), [CH₂(C₆H₄-o)₂(AuPPh₃)₄](BF₄)₂ (5), and [(CH₂)₂(C₆H₄-o)₂(AuPPh₃)₄](BF₄)₂ (6). Complexes 1–6 have been characterized by X-ray diffraction studies, FAB MS, and IR as well as by ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. A complicated system of Au H-C agostic interactions, involving the bridging alkyl groups (—CH₂— and CH₂-CH₂—) of diphenylmethane and diphenylethane ligands, has been found to occur in complexes 1–3 and 6.     

Studies on Nucleosides(Ⅵ)-Stereoselective Synthesis of Triazoline-thione NuCleosides

A series of heterocyclic compounds of triazole thione substituted by tetrazole(I)were prepared using nicotinic acid as starting material through several steps.They reacted with 1-O-trifluoroacety1-2,3,5-O-tri-benxoyl-β-D-ribofuranose(Ⅱ) inanhydrous CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature in the presence of BF₃·Et₂O to give nine new nucleosides, named as 3-[5-(3-pyridyl)-tetrazol-2-yl-methylene]-4-aryl,2,4-triazole-5-(4H)-thione-2, 3, 5-O-tribenwyl-β-D-ribo-furanoside(Ⅲ)(Ar=C₆H₅,o-MeC₆H₄,m-MeC₆H₄,p-MeC₆H₄,o-MeC₆H₄,p-MeC₆H₄,p-EtOC₆H₃,3,4-Me₂C₆H₄,a-C₁₀H₇).The structures and compositions were characterized by means of elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods.     

Reactions of Lewis bases with tetrakisdiphenylamide uranium(IV)

The coordinatively unsaturated uranium(IV) complex U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄ has been prepared via the stoichiometric reaction of diphenylamine with [(Me₃Si)₂N]₂ H₂. U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄ coordinates Lewis bases such as Et₂O, THF, pyridine or (EtO)₃PO, based on electronic absorption spectroscopy and ¹H NMR studies. Exchange between U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄ and U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄(L), where L is THF or pyridine, is rapid on the NMR time-scale between 307 and 323 K. Measurement of equilibrium constants for L = THF provides ΔH and ΔS values of −60 kJ mol⁻¹ and −1.8 × 10² J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹, respectively. U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄ coordinates and binds (EtO)₃PO much more tightly (K_eq = & > 10⁴ M⁻¹) than THF or pyridine with the exchange rate between U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄ and U[N(C₆H₅)₂]₄[OP(OEt)₃] being close to the NMR time-scale.     

Synthesis, electrochemistry and structural characterization of luminescent rhenium(I) monoynyl complexes and their homo- and hetero-metallic binuclear complexes

A series of luminescent rhenium(I) monoynyl complexes, [Re(N---N)(CO)₃(CC---R)] (N---N=bpy, ^tBu₂bpy; R=C₆H₅, C₆H₄---Cl-4, C₆H₄---OCH₃-4, C₆H₄---C₈H₁₇-4, C₆H₄---C₆H₅, C₈H₁₇, C₄H₃S, C₄H₂S---C₄H₃S, C₅H₄N), together with their homo- and hetero-metallic binuclear complexes, {Re(N---N)(CO)₃(CC---C₅H₄N)[M]} (N---N=bpy, ^tBu₂bpy; [M]=[Re{(CF₃)₂-bpy}(CO)₃]ClO₄, [Re(NO₂-phen)(CO)₃]ClO₄, W(CO)₅) have been synthesized and their electrochemical and photoluminescence behaviors determined. The structural characterization and electronic structures of selected complexes have also been studied. The luminescence origin of the rhenium(I) alkynyl complexes has been assigned as derived states of a [dπ(Re)→π*(N---N)] metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) origin mixed with a [π(CCR)→π*(N---N)] ligand-to-ligand charge transfer (LLCT) character. The assignments are further supported by extended Hückel molecular orbital (EHMO) calculations, which show that the LUMO mainly consists of π*(N---N) character while the HOMO is dominated by the antibonding character of the Re---CCR moiety resulted from the overlap of the dπ(Re) and π(CCR) orbitals.
