Formation and structure of diruthenium complexes Ru2(CO)6−n (PPh3) n {μ-C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)} (n=1, 2)

Ruthenium carbonyl triphenylphosphine complexes Ru₂(CO)_6−n (PPh₃) _n {μ-C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)} (n=1, 2) were obtained by the reaction of complex Ru₂(CO)₆{μ-C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)} containing the ruthenacyclopentadiene moiety with PPh₃ in refluxing toluene. The complexes were characterized by IR and by¹H,¹³C, and³¹P NMR spectroscopy, and by X-ray analysis. The monophosphine derivative is identical to the complex formed by fragmentation of the Ru₃(CO)₈(PPh₃){μ-C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)C(CH=CHPh)C(Ph)} cluster and contains the PPh₃ ligand at the ruthenium atom of the ruthenacyclopentadiene moiety.

Synthesis and Stereochemistry of New N-Substituted Cytisine Derivatives

A series of new N-substituted cytisine derivatives was synthesized. The ¹ H and ¹³ C NMR spectra of certain compounds exhibit a doubled set of signals. This is explained by formation of diastereomeric pairs in compounds containing an asymmetric center in the substituents. The signal splitting in -COHC=CHCO ₂ H and HC=O (formyl) derivatives is explained by the existence of Z and E invertomers. Their stereochemical features are discussed. Amide conjugation is confirmed by temperature experiments.     

Selective synthesis and spectroscopic properties of alkyl-substituted lanthanide(<Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">III</Emphasis>) mono-, di-, and triphthalocyanines

Methods for the selective synthesis of mono-(^RPcLnOAc), di-(^RPc₂Ln), and triphthalocyanines (^RPc₃Ln₂) of rare-earth metals (Ln = Lu, Er, Eu) from symmetrically substituted 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octaalkylphthalocyanines ^RPcH₂ (R = Et, Bu) were developed. The synthesized complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and electronic absorption spectra. The conditions for ¹H NMR spectra recording were optimized. Regularities in changing the spectral properties of the synthesized compounds, depending on the lanthanide nature and the planarity of metal phthalocyanine complexes, were found. tom@org.chem.msu.su Dedicated to Academician A.

H and C NMR spectroscopy of 9-acridinones

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of 9-acridinone and its five derivatives dissolved in CDCl₃, CD₃CN and DMSO-d₆ were measured in order to reveal the influence of the constitution of the compounds and features of the solvents on chemical shifts and ¹H-¹H coupling constants. Experimental data were compared with theoretically predicted chemical shifts, on the GIAO/DFT level of theory, for DFT (B3LYP)/6-31G^∗∗ optimized geometries of molecules—also for four other 9-acridinones. This comparison helped to ascribe resonance signals in the spectra to relevant atoms and enabled revelation of relations between chemical shifts and physicochemical features of the compounds. It was found that experimentally or theoretically determined ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of selected atoms correlate with theoretically predicted values of dipole moments of the molecules, as well as bond lengths, atomic partial charges and energies of HOMO.

1,3-bis(2,4,6-trinitrophenylaminooxy)propane and its 4-cyano-2,6-dinitrophenyl congener: Synthesis and properties

Starting from N-hydroxyphthalimide (5) and 1,3-dibromopropane (6) we obtained 1,3-bis(phthalimidooxy)propane (7) which led to 1,3-bis(aminooxy)propane dihydrochloride (8). From its reaction with picryl chloride or 4-cyano-2,6-dinitrochlorobenzene, the two title compounds (4b, 4a) were obtained. ¹H-NMR and ¹³C-NMR spectra are presented. For comparison with the analogous N-methoxy-2,6-dinitro-4-R-anilines 1a, 1b (R=CN or R=NO₂), wer report the hydrophobic characteristics (by RPTLC), electronic spectra for the neutral compounds and their anions, pK _a values, and the behavior towards oxidizers (DPPH, PbO₂, Pb(CH₃COO)₄, KMnO₄ and Ag₂O); DPPH converts compounds 1a, 1b and 4a, 4b into betainic structures 2a, 2b respectively.     

Chemie polyfunktioneller Moleküle, 94 Chrom- und Wolfram-pentacarbonylderivate des 4-Methyl-1,2,6-triphosphatricyclo[2.2.1.02,6]heptans (P3-Nortricyclans)

The P₃-nortricyclane 4-methyl-1,2,6-triphosphatricyclo[2.2.1.0^2,6]heptane, CH₃C(CH₂P)₃, (1), is synthesized in a better yield than earlier described from P₄, a Na/K alloy, and CH₃C(CH₂Br)₃ in boiling 1,2-dimethoxyethane. It reacts withM(CO)₅ thf (M=Cr, W) in the molar ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 to form the pentacarbonylmetal complexes CH₃C(CH₂P)₃[M(CO)₅] _n [n=1, 2, 3;M=Cr (a), W (b)], (2 a, b–4 a, b).1 gives with Mo(CO)₅ thf only mixtures of CH₃C(CH₂P)₃[Mo(CO)₅] _n andcis-Mo(CO)₄ derivatives, which were identified by their infrared active A₁ v(CO) modes at 2075 and 2025 cm^–1.All the new compounds have been characterized also by their¹H{³¹P},³¹P{¹H} NMR, IR,Raman, and mass spectra.

     

The vibrational and NMR spectra,conformations and ab initio calculations of aminomethylene,propanedinitrile and itsN-methyl derivatives

The IR and Raman spectra of aminomethylene propanedinitrile (AM) [H₂N-CH=C(CN)₂], (methylamino)methylene propanedinitrile (MAM) [CH₃NH-CH=C(CN)₂] and (dimethylamino)methylene propanedinitrile (DMAM) [(CH₃)₂N-CH=C(CN)₂] as solids and solutes in various solvents have been recorded in the region 4000-50 cm^–1. AM and DMAM can exist only as one conformer. From the vibrational and NMR spectra of MAM in solutions, the existence of two conformers with the methyl group orientedanti andsyn toward the double C=C bond were confirmed. The enthalpy difference H ⁰ between the conformers was measured to be 3.7±1.4 kJ mol^–1 from the IR spectra in acetonitrile solution and 3.4±1.1 kJ mol^–1 from the NMR spectra in DMSO solution. Semiempirical (AM1, PM3, MNDO, MINDO3) and ab initio SCF calculations using a DZP basis set were carried out for all three compounds. The calculations support the existence of two conformersanti andsyn for MAM, withanti being 7.8 kJ mol^–1 more stable thansyn from ab initio and 8.6, 13.4, 11.6, and 10.8 kJ mor^–1 from AM1, PM3, MNDO, and MINDO3 calculations, respectively. Finally, complete assignments of the vibrational spectra for all three compounds were made with the aid of normal coordinate calculations employing scaled ab initio force constants. The same scale factors were optimized on the experimental frequencies of all three compounds, and a very good agreement between calculated and experimental frequencies was achieved.     

Optical spectroscopy of europium 3,5-dinitrosalicylates—Intense red luminophores

It was found, that alkali metal-europium dinitrosalicylates of composition M₃Eu(3,5-NO₂-Sal)₃·nH₂O (M = Li, Na, K, Cs) are intense red luminophores with wide excitation band. Using methods of optical spectroscopy we studied the influence of nitrogroups and alkali metal counterions on Eu³⁺ luminescence efficiency and on processes of excitation energy transfer to Eu³⁺ ion in compounds synthesized. The Eu³⁺ luminescence and Eu³⁺ luminescence excitation spectra, as well as vibrational IR and Raman spectra were investigated. Details of the structure of compounds were discussed. The network of hydrogen bonds in lanthanide dinitrosalicylates is weakening at introduction of large alkali metal ions in compounds and at the increase of the temperature. As a consequence, the long-wavelength shift of the intraligand charge transfer (ILCT) band in Eu³⁺ excitation spectra arises at inclusion of Cs⁺ cations instead of Li⁺ in the crystal lattice of europium dinitrosalicylates and at heating of these compounds. To obtain the energy of the lowest excited triplet state the phosphorescence spectra of alkali metal-gadolinium compounds M₃Gd(3,5-NO₂-Sal)₃·nH₂O, of alkali metal dinitrosalicylate and salicylate salts were measured with time delay. Change of the energies of ligand electronic states and ligand–metal charge transfer state (LM CTS) can give a two-three orders of magnitude enhancement of the Eu³⁺ luminescence efficiency in dinitrosalicylates in comparison with salicylates and ten-fold enhancement at the substitution of Li⁺ and Na⁺ for Cs⁺ in dinitrosalicylates.     

Naphthalene and pyrrole substituted guanidine in selective sensing of Cu2+, Hg2+, Pb2+ and CN− ions under different conditions

Naphthalene and pyrrole substituted guanidine 1 has been designed and synthesised. Compound 1 efficiently distinguishes Cu²⁺, Hg²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions by exhibiting different responses in fluorescence. While compound 1 exhibited turn-on emission selectively in the presence of Hg²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions in CH₃CN and CH₃CN–H₂O (1:1, v/v), respectively, it showed decrease in emission upon interaction with Cu²⁺ ion in CH₃CN. Furthermore, the Cu-1 ensemble has been established as a potential probe for selective detection of CN^? ion over a series of other anions involving colour change (in ordinary light: colourless to light yellow and under UV light: colourless to sky blue). Theoretical insight has been invoked to understand the mode of metal–ligand interaction.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopic properties of two new complexes containing azido or dicyanamido bridges

Two new complexes, [Cu(L₁){N(CN)₂}]·ClO₄ (1) (L₁ is 1,8-dimethyl-1,3,6,8,10,13-hexa-azacyclotetradecane) and [Co(L₂)(N₃)₂]·ClO₄ (2) (L₂ is 5,7,7,12,14,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetra-azacyclotetradecane) have been synthesized and characterized. The compounds crystallize in the monoclinic system P2₁ space group for 1 and P2₁/n for 2. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals that the compound 1 assumes a one-dimensional structure via hydrogen-bonding interactions, in which each Cu(II) ion is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms from ligand L₁ and one nitrogen atom from [N(CN)₂]⁻ anion. For compound 2, each Co(III) ion is coordinated by four nitrogen atoms of ligand L₂ and two nitrogen atoms from N₃ ⁻ anion.

Synthesis and characterization of tungsten carbonyl complexes containing N-methyl substituted urea and thiourea ligands

Six new mixed-ligand tungsten carbonyl complexes containing N-methyl substituted urea and thiourea of the type W(CO)₄[RCH₂N-(C=X)NH₂] where X?=?O or S and R?=?morpholine, piperidine and diphenylamine are reported. These have been prepared by refluxing hexacarbonyl tungsten(0) with corresponding ligands in THF to produce cis-disubstituted products, [(L-L)W(CO)₄] where L-L?=?a chelating bidentate ligand, morpholinomethyl urea (MMU), morpholinomethyl thiourea (MMTU), piperidinomethyl urea (PMU), piperidinomethyl thiourea (PMTU), diphenylaminomethyl urea (DAMU) and diphenylaminomethyl thiourea (DAMTU). The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic and ¹³C NMR spectra, magnetic moments and conductivity measurements. The IR spectra suggests that in all the complexes, the ligands are bidentate chelating, coordinating the metal through carbonyl oxygen or thiocarbonyl sulphur and the ring nitrogen or tert-nitrogen of diphenylamine. The CO force constants and CO–CO interaction constants for these derivatives have also been calculated using Cotton–Kraihanzel secular equations, which indicate poor π-bonding ability of the ligands. ¹³C NMR and electronic spectra reveal loss of cis-carbonyl ligands to produce cis-disubstituted tetracarbonyl derivatives. Molecular modeling studies have been carried out using Hyperchem release 7.52 which suggest a distorted octahedral geometry for these complexes.

Mercury(II) cyanide complexes with alkyldiamines: solid-state/solution NMR,computational, and antimicrobial studies

Mercury cyanide complexes of alkyldiamines (1–6), [Hg(L)(CN)₂] (where L?=?en (1,2-diaminoethane), pn (1,3-diaminopropane), N-Me-en, N, N′-Me₂-en, N, N′-Et₂-en, and N, N′-ipr₂-en), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N solution NMR in DMSO-d₆, as well as ¹³C, ¹⁵N, and ¹⁹⁹Hg solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Complexes 1 and 2 have been studied computationally, built and optimized by GAUSSIAN03 using DFT at B3LYP level with LanL2DZ basis set. Binding modes of en and bn (where bn?=?1,4-diaminobutane) toward Hg(CN)₂ are completely different. Complexes with en and pn show chelating binding to Hg(II), while bn behaves as a bridging ligand to form a polymeric structure, [Hg(CN)₂-bn]_∞ [B.A. Al-Maythalony, M. Fettouhi, M.I.M. Wazeer, A.A. Isab. Inorg. Chem. Commun., 12, 540 (2009).]. The solution ¹³C NMR of the complexes demonstrates a slight shift of the ?C≡N (0.9 to 2?ppm) and ?C–NH₂ (0.25 to 6?ppm) carbon resonances, while the other resonances are relatively unaffected. ¹⁵N labeling studies have shown involvement of alkyldiamine ligands in coordination to the metal. The principal components of the ¹³C, ¹⁵N, and ¹⁹⁹Hg shielding tensors have been determined from solid-state NMR data. Antimicrobial activity studies show that the complexes exhibit higher antibacterial activities toward various microorganisms than Hg(CN)₂.
