Complex Formation of Potassium Hexachloroplatinate with 18-Crown-6 and Dibenzo-18-Crown-6 in Acetonitrile

The products of the reactions between potassium hexachloroplatinate {K₂PtCl₆} and 18-crown-6 or dibenzo-18-crown-6 in acetonitrile were studied. Pure crystalline compounds [2K·2(18-crown-6)· 2CH₃CN]²⁺·[PtCl₆]^2-·2H₂O, [2K·dibenzo-18-crown-6·CH₃CN]^{2 +}·[PtCl₆]^{2 -}, and [2K·dibenzo-18-crown-6·CH₃CN]^{2 +}·[Pt₂Cl₁₀]^{2 -} were obtained. Physicochemical properties of these compounds were studied, and their near- and far-IR IR spectra and thermogravimetric curves were considered. The composition of the complexes is determined by metal:ligand molar ratio and crown ether nature. It was found that acetonitrile is coordinated via the nitrogen atom.

Selective functionalization of crown ethers via arene chromium tricarbonyl complexes

The crown ethers dibenzo-16-crown-4 and dibenzo-18-crown-5 and a diaryl polyether were complexed by the chromium tricarbonyl group for the purpose of selective functionalization. This complexation did indeed permit exclusive functionalization of the complexed ring. CHO and CH₂OH functionalities were introduced ortho to the ether group. It was noted that the nature of the two ether chains had a strong influence on the regioselectivity of the functionalization, which occurred preferentially on the side with the polyether chain. Photochemical decomplexation produced functionalized organic crown ethers.     

Copper-sulfur interactions: synthesis and structure of a trigonal planar copper(I) complex with bis(diphenylthiophosphinyl)methane, [CuI(dppmS2)]·MeCN

Reaction of copper(I) iodide with 1,1-bis(diphenylthiophosphinyl)methane (dppmS₂) in a 1:1?mol ratio in acetonitrile yielded a complex of stoichiometry [CuI(dppmS₂)]·CH₃CN (1) whose X-ray structure determination has shown that the geometry around the copper center is nearly trigonal planar. Acetonitrile is nonbonded. Copper–sulfur bond distances are 2.2470(7) and 2.2591(7)?Å, while the copper–iodide bond distance is 2.4937(5)?Å. IR and NMR spectroscopic data also show the formation of copper–sulfur bonds. Lack of bridging by iodide led to the formation of a three-coordinate copper complex, as against the expected iodo-bridged dimeric complex with chelating dppmS₂.     

Formation of complexes of crown ethers in the absence of solvent observed by differential thermal analysis

Differential thermal analysis was employed as a new method to observe the formation of complexes of dibenzo-18-crown-6 polyether and macrocyclic nitro derivatives with potassium iodide. DTA thermograms of polyethers, of solid complexes, and mixtures of polyether and potassium iodide were obtained in an atmosphere of dry nitrogen.

Charge transfer complexes of crown ethers with neutral organic π-acceptor, 2-dicyanoethylene 1,3-indane dione

The interaction of benzo-15-crown-5, dibenzo-18-crown-6 and dibenzo-24-crown-8 with 2-dicyanoethylene 1,3-indane dione in CH₂Cl₂ has been described in terms of the formation of 1 : 1 molecular complexes. The magnitude of association constants and thermodynamic parameters indicate cooperative interactions of oxygens with the acceptors. The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of the complexes show that π-π interactions are a major source of ground state stabilization in these complexes.     

Electron impact induced fragmentation of dibenzo-18-crown-6 polyether and its nitro derivatives

The mass spectra of dibenzo-18-crown-6 polyether and three of its nitro derivatives have been determined. The fragmentation pathways of all the compounds suggested that ring contraction was taking place. The molecular ion of the polyether dissociated by three competing processes, mainly through loss of C₂H₄O units. The molecular ions of the three derivatives dissociated with ring contraction, as well as through losses of O, No and NO₂.     

The insertion reactions of “crowned” indium(I) trifluoromethanesulfonate into carbon-chlorine bonds

Whereas the soluble reagent indium(I) trifluoromethanesulfonate, InOTf, does not appear to react rapidly with chlorinated solvents, the crown ether ligated compounds [In(18-crown-6)][OTf] and [In(dibenzo-18-crown-6)][OTf] react rapidly with CH₂Cl₂ and CHCl₃ to produce the corresponding C-Cl insertion products. The structural features and the formation of the new indium-containing products are rationalized.     

Complexes of Mercury(II) Cyanide with Crown Ethers in Dimethylsulfoxide

The complexation of mercury(II) cyanide with macrocyclic ligands 15-crown-5,18-crown-6 and dibenzo-24-crown-8 in dimethylsulfoxide was studied using¹⁹⁹Hg NMR measurements. No significant complexation with 15-crown-5was observed. The stability constants K_s for 1 : 1 complexes with two other ligands were determined and found to be similar, in contrary to the results reported in nitrobenzene. Solvent effects on K_s values obtained are discussed in comparison with the literature data. X-ray crystal structure of Hg(CN)₂.A18-crown-6 was also determined.

The conductance of cyclic polyether-cation complexes

Precise conductance measurements are reported for sodium, potassium, and cesium salts in methanol and acetonitrile solutions containing cyclic polyethers dibenzo-18-crown-6 and dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6. Decreases in equivalent conductance caused by the addition of a cyclic polyether to solutions of constant ionic strength were analyzed by nonlinear least squares to give association constants and equivalent conductances of the cation-polyether complex. The selectivity observed for the complexing is a function not only of ionic size but also of solvent.

In this structure the statistically disordered alternating cations and Db18C6 molecules form infinite chains. The statistically disordered [CuCl₂]^? anions also form infinite chains.     

Di(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)-dibenzo-18-crown-6: A “light fluorous” recyclable phase transfer catalyst

A series of dibenzo-18-crown-6 lariat ethers containing two C₇H₁₅ (11), (CH₂)₂C₆F₁₃ (14), (CH₂)₂C₈F₁₇ (15), NHC₇H₁₅ (18) and NHCH₂C₆F₁₃ (19) sidearms were prepared and the single crystal X-ray structure of cis-4,4′-di(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl)-dibenzo-18-crown-6 (15a) is reported. The “light fluorous” dibenzo-18-crown-6 ether (14) has emerged as a stable and robust PTC catalyst, which can be recycled efficiently by fluorous solid-phase extraction, and gives better PTC catalytic activity compared to the parent, non-fluorinated PTC catalyst, dibenzo-18-crown-6, and the alkylated derivative (11) in aliphatic and aromatic nucleophilic substitutions.
