Heterogeneous reactions of solid nickel(II) complexes. XVIII

The Stoichiometry of thermal decomposition was studied for the following compounds: Ni(NCS)₂(2-Mepy)₂ (I), (Me=methyl, py=pyridine), Ni(NCS)₂(2-Etpy)₂ (II) (Et=ethyl), Ni(NCS)₂(2-Clpy)₂ (III), Ni(NCS)₂(2-Brpy)₂ (IV), Ni(NCS)₂(2-NH₂py)₂ (V), Ni((NCS)₂(2-NH₂py)₂·3/4 (C₂H₅)₂O (VI). The release of volatile ligands 2-Rpy is a one-step process for complexes I, II, III and IV, while for V and VI it is a two-step process, Ni(NCS)₂(2-NH₂py)₁ (VII) being formed as an intermediate complex. It was found that complexes I and II are square-planar; the others exhibited pseudo-octahedral geometry. The differences in stereochemistry of the above complexes are explained by the different electronic properties of 2-Rpy.     

Thermal N(CN)2-bridging reactions of dicyanamide complexes Ni{N(CN)2}2Ln in solid phase

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition reactions was studied for the following compounds: Ni{N(CN)₂}_2py2 (I) (py-pyridine), Ni{N(CN)₂}₂(2-Mepy)₂ (II), Ni{N(CN)₂}₂(3-Mepy)₂ (III) and Ni{N(CN)₂}₂(4-Mepy)₃ (IV). In complexes I and II the loss of the volatile heterocyclic ligands occurs in one step while in complexes III and IV in two steps. Magnetic and spectral data indicated pseudooctahedral configuration for all complexes. The course of thermal N(CN)₂-bridging reactions of the complexes studied are discussed.

Heterogene Reactionen fester Nickel(II)-Komplexe. XXI. Thermische Zersetzung und Stereochemie der Thiocyanato-Nickel(II)-Komplexe mit Pyridin-N-Oxid und Methylsubstituierten Pyridin-N-Oxiden

Heterogeneous Reactions of Solid Nickel(II) Complexes. XXI. Thermal Decomposition and Sterochemistry of Thiocyanato-Nickel(II) Complexes with Pyridine N-Oxide and Methylsubstituted Pyridine N-Oxides The thermal decomposition was studied for the complexes: Ni(NCS)₂(pyNO)₃ · H₂O (I), (pyNO = pyridine N-oxide), Ni(NCS)₂(2-MepyNO)₃ (II) Me = Methyl, Ni(NCS)₂(3-MepyNO)₂ · C₂H₅OH (III) and Ni(NCS)₂(4-MepyNO)₂ · H₂O (IV). On heating the solvent molecules bonded escape and then the decomposition of heterocyclic ligands sets in. The spectral and magnetic data indicate a pseudooctahedral configuration of the starting complexes as also of Ni(NCS)₂(pyNO)₃ (V), Ni(NCS)₂(3-MepyNO)₂ (VI) and Ni(NCS)₂(4-MepyNO)₂ (VII), i. e. of the initial complexes without the solvent molecules. For complexes of the type of [Ni(NCS)₂L₃] · xH₂O (L = pyNO, x = 0, 1; L = 2-MepyNO and x = 0) a dimeric structure is assumed, while for those of the type of [Ni(NCS)₂L₂] · xH₂O (C₂H₅OH) (L = 3-MepyNO and 4-MepyNO, x = 0 or 1) a polymeric structure is supposed.     

Thermal decomposition reactions of nickel(II) complexes under quasi-equilibrium conditions

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition and thermal (thermodynamic) stability was studied for the Werner clathrates [Ni(4-Mepy)₄(NCS)₂]·G, whereG = benzene(I), toluene(II) andp-xylene(III). The loss of the volatile components occurs in five steps in compounds I and II and in four steps in the complex III. According to the quasi-equilibrium data the thermodynamic stability of these compounds can be ordered in the following sequence: I<II<III. The increasing host-guest interaction (larger positive band shift in the visible spectra) was accompanied by increasing in the quasi-equilibrium temperature (T _D) for the complexes under study.     

Thermochemical investigation

The stoichiometry of the thermal decomposition and the stereochemistry of the following compounds was studied: NiR₄Cl₂ (I), NiR₄Br₂ (II), NiR₄I₂·2H₂O (III) and NiR₄(NCS)₂ (IV) (R=3-pyridylcarbinol, ronicol). In complexes I and II the loss of the volatile ligands (on the TG curves) occurs in three steps (–2R, –R, –R), in complex III in four steps (–2H₂O, –2R, –R, –R) and in complex (IV) in one step (–4R). According to the quasi-equilibrium decomposition temperatures, the thermodynamic stability of NiR₄X₄ complexes can be ordered in the sequence (according to X):Cl相似文献   

Thermochemical investigation of guest-host interactions in Werner clathrates of type [Ni(4-Etpy)4(NCS)2]·nG (G=naphthalene derivatives)

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition and the thermochemistry were studied for [NiL₄(NCS)₂] (I) as a host complex, and for its clathrates of type [NiL₄(NCS)₂]·2G, where L=4-ethylpyridine and guest molecule G=1-methylnaphthalene in clathrate (II), 1-chloronaphthalene in (III) or 1-bromonaphthalene in (IV). For I, the loss of volatile components proceeds in three steps (–2L, –L, –L); the first steps for II–IV also involve the release of G (–2G, –2L). DSC and X-ray powder measurements indicated a phase transition in the host lattice, and allowed differentiation of the escape of G and L molecules. The enthalpy changes give the following sequence of thermodynamic stability for the studied chlathrates: I>II>III.     

Thermal properties of solid complexes with biologically important heterocyclic ligands

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition of the complexes Ni(NCS)₂(fpy)₄ (I), Ni(NCS)₂(bfpy)₄ (II) and Ni(NCS)₂(CF₃Phfpy)₄ (III) (where fpy=furopyridine, bfpy=benzo-[2,3]furo[3,2-c]pyridine, CF₃Phfpy=2-(3-fluoromethylphenyl) furo[3,2-c]pyridine) have been investigated in nitrogen atmosphere from room temperature to 500°C by means of TG and DTG. The results revealed that release of the heterocyclic ligands occurs in two steps. IR data suggested that fpy, bfpy and CF₃Phfpy ligands were coordinated to Ni(II) through the N atom of the respective heterocyclic rings and same is the case with the anionic NCS group.     

Preparation and 1H NMR study of complexes of trimethylplatinum(IV) with some tridentate schiff base ligands containing,N, O,and S donor atoms

The Schiff base ligands I–V, made by condensing either 2-acetylpyridine (I), 8-quinolinecarboxaldehyde (II and III), or o-methylthiobenzaldehyde (IV and V) with either N,N′-dimethyl-1,3-diaminopropane (I, II, and IV), 2-aminomethylpyridine (III), or 2-(2-aminoethyl)-pyridine (V), give ionic Pt^IVMe₃ complexes containing tridentate NNN- or SNN-bonded ligands. With PtMe₃Br ligand V gives a neutral complex XI in which it is coordinated only via the two N atoms. A monomeric Pt^IVMe₃ salicyladiminate complex results on treating the dimeric trimethylplatinum(IV) salicylaldehyde complex with the bidentate amine H₂N (CH₂)₃NMe₂. The complexes have been fully characterised by ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Thermal properties of solid complexes with biologically important heterocyclic ligands

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition of the complexes Co(NCS)₂(fpy)₄ (I), Co(NCS)₂(Mefpy)₄ (II) and Co(NCS)₂(bfpy)₄ (III) (where fpy = furo[3,2-c]pyridine, Mefpy = methylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine, bfpy = benzo-[2, 3]furo[3,2-c]pyridine) have been investigated in nitrogen atmosphere from room temperature (RT) to 800 °C by means of TG and DTA. The results revealed that release of heterocyclic ligands occurs in one step. Infrared data suggested that fpy, Mefpy and bfpy were coordinated to Co(II) through the nitrogen atom of the respective heterocyclic ring and anionic ligands through nitrogen atom of the NCS groups.     

Complexes derived from some biologically active ligands

Complexes derived from ampicillin (L1) and amoxicillin (L2) with (Mg(II), Ca(II), Zn(II), Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Ce(III), Nd(III), UO₂(VI), Th(IV)) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, electrical conductivity measurements, magnetic susceptibility, IR, UV/Vis, and thermogravimetry. The formed complexes can be formulated as (ML(H₂O)₃(NO₃) _n ) except for Ce(III) which gave (CeL(H₂O)₃(Cl)₂). The ¹H NMR spectra of the Zn(II) complexes are compared to spectra of the ligands. The shift (δ) gave information about the chelating center of the ligands. The ligands and the synthesized complexes, derived from some alkali earth and transition metal ions, were tested as antibacterial reagents. The formed complexes had enhanced activity.     

Thermal decomposition and biological activity studies of some transition metal complexes derived from mixed ligands sparfloxacin and glycine

The synthetic method of novel ternary M(II)/(III)/(IV) complexes, with fluoroquinolone drug sparfloxacin (HSFX) and glycine (HGly) containing nitrogen and oxygen donor ligand have been synthesized and characterized. The prepared complexes fall into stoichiometric formulae of [M(SFX)(Gly)(H₂O)₂]Cl (M = Cr(III) and Fe(III), [M(SFX)(Gly)(H₂O)₂] (M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and UO₂(II) and [Th(SFX)(Gly)(H₂O)₂]Cl₂. The chelate rings are six-membered and six coordinate with 1:1:1 [M]:[SFX]:[Gly]. The important bands in the IR Spectra and main ¹H NMR signals are tentatively assigned and discussed in relation to the predicted molecular structure. The IR data of the HSFX and HGly ligands suggested the existing of a bidentate binding involving carboxylate O and carbonyl O for HSFX ligand and amino N and carboxylate O atoms for HGly ligand. The coordination geometries and electronic structures are determined from the diffused reflectance spectra and magnetic moment measurements. The complexes exist in octahedral form. The complexes decomposed in four to six steps within the temperature range 30–1,000 °C with metal oxides as residues of decomposition. The decomposition steps are accompanied by endothermic or exothermic peaks in the DTA. The HSFX drug, HGly and metal complexes have been screened for their in vitro antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and antifungal activities against Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans by MIC method. The metal complexes were found to have higher antimicrobial activity than the HSFX drug and HGly ligand and their activity are comparable with the antibacterial and antifungal standards.     

Heterogeneous reactions of solid nickel(II) complexes,V

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of solid complexes of the type Ni(NCS)₂L₂ (L=pyridine,β-picoline and quinoline), of pseudooctahedral configuration, were studied by using isothermal methods, on the basis of losses of weight, in the temperature range 90–191?. The most suitable reaction order for all the complexes under investigation was found to ben=2/3, i.e. the total decomposition rate is determined by the chemical process proper. The calculated values ofE _a(in kcal · mole^?1) decrease in the following order: Ni(NCS)₂py₂ (29.4)>Ni(NCS)₂(β-pic)₂ (27.6)>Ni(NCS)₂Q₂ (24.3). With increasing volume of the ligand L the reaction rate also increases, and this suggests that the reaction proceeds by dissociative activation. For all the investigated complexes it was found that δH>E _A; this may be explained by a several-step mechanism and the complex Ni(NCS)₂L is then considered an intermediate.     

Thermal studies of some biologically active oxovanadium(IV) complexes containing 8-hydroxyquinolinate and hydroxamate ligands

The thermal decomposition behaviours of oxovanadium(IV)hydroxamate complexes of composition [VO(Q)_2?n(HL^1,2)_n]: [VO(C₉H₆ON)(C₆H₄(OH)(CO)NHO)] (I), [VO(C₆H₄(OH)(CO)NHO)₂] (II), [VO(C₉H₆ON)(C₆H₄(OH)(5-Cl)(CO)NHO)] (III), and [VO(C₆H₄(OH)(5-Cl)(CO)NHO)₂] (IV) (where Q?=?C₉H₆NO^? 8-hydroxyquinolinate ion; HL¹?=?[C₆H₄(OH)CONHO]^? salicylhydroxamate ion; HL²?=?[C₆H₃(OH)(5-Cl)CONHO]^? 5-chlorosalicylhydroxamate ion; n?=?1 and 2), which are synthesised by the reactions of [VO(Q)₂] with predetermined molar ratios of potassium salicylhydroxamate and potassium 5-chlorosalicylhydroxamate in THF?+?MeOH solvent medium, have been studied by TG and DTA techniques. Thermograms indicate that complexes (I) and (III) undergo single-step decomposition, while complexes (II) and (IV) decompose in two steps to yield VO(HL^1,2) as the likely intermediate and VO₂ as the ultimate product of decomposition. The formation of VO₂ has been authenticated by IR and XRD studies. From the initial decomposition temperatures, the order of thermal stabilities for the complexes has been inferred as III?>?I > II?>?IV.     

Chemistry of osmium in N2P2Br2 coordination sphere: Synthesis,structure and reactivities

A family of three mixed-ligand osmium complexes of type [Os(PPh₃)₂(N-N)Br₂], where N-N=2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (Me₂bpy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), have been synthesized and characterized. The complexes are diamagnetic (low-spin d⁶, S=0) and in dichloromethane solution they show intense MLCT transitions in the visible region. The two bromide ligands have been replaced from the coordination sphere of [Os(PPh₃)₂(phen)Br₂] under mild conditions by a series of anionic ligands L (where L=quinolin-8-olate (q), picolinate (pic), oxalate (Hox) and 1-nitroso-2-naphtholate (nn)) to afford complexes of type [Os(PPh₃)₂(phen)(L)]⁺, which have been isolated and characterized as the perchlorate salt. The structure of the [Os(PPh₃)₂(phen)(pic)]ClO₄ complex has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The PPh₃ ligands occupy trans positions and the picolinate anion is coordinated to osmium as a bidentate N,O-donor forming a five-membered chelate ring. The [Os(PPh₃)₂(phen)(L)]⁺ complexes are diamagnetic and show multiple MLCT transitions in the visible region. The [Os(PPh₃)₂(N-N)Br₂] complexes show an osmium(II)–osmium(III) oxidation (−0.02 to 0.12 V vs. SCE) followed by an osmium(III)–osmium(IV) oxidation (1.31 to 1.43 V vs. SCE). The [Os(PPh₃)₂(phen)(L)]⁺ complexes display the osmium (II)–osmium (III) oxidation (0.26 to 0.84 V vs. SCE) and one reduction of phen (−1.50 to −1.79 V vs. SCE). The osmium (III)–osmium (IV) oxidation has been observed only for the L=q and L=Hox complexes at 1.38 V vs. SCE and 1.42 V vs. SCE respectively. The osmium(III) species, viz. [Os^III(PPh₃)₂(N-N)Br₂]⁺ and [Os^III(PPh₃)₂(phen)(L)]²⁺, have been generated both chemically and electrochemically and characterized in solution by electronic spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry.     

Two furo­pyridine complexes of nickel(II) iso­thio­cyanate

Pyridine fused with a furan ring (fupy), and its di­methyl derivative, have been used for the first time as ligands to synthesize potentially new Werner clathrates. The extended aromatic system of pyridine‐like ligands influences considerably the molecular structure of prepared nickel complexes. The molecular structure of tetrakis­(furo­[3,2‐c]­pyridine)­bis(iso­thio­cyanato)­nickel(II) tetra­hydro­furan (THF) solvate, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₇H₅NO)₄]·C₄H₈O or [Ni(NCS)₂(fupy)₄]·THF, (I), reveals a `four‐blade propeller' arrangement of ligands, with the angles between the fupy planes and the basal octahedron plane spanning the range 38.7–55.3°. These angles are much larger (69.9–78.8°) in the centrosymmetric complex tetrakis(2,3‐di­methyl­furo­[3,2‐c]­pyridine)­bis­(iso­thio­cyanato)nickel(II) 6.6‐hydrate, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₉H₉NO)₄]·6.6H₂O or [Ni(NCS)₂(Me₂fupy)₄]·6.6H₂O, (II), in which crystallographically imposed inversion symmetry is present.     

Schiff-Basen aus 1,3-Dicarbonylverbindungen und Triaminen und ihre Fe (III)-, Co (III)-, Ni(II)- und Cu(II)-Komplexe

Schiff bases of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with triamines and their Fe(III), Co(III), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes The preparation of new hexadentate ligands obtained by the reaction of cis, cis-1,3,5-triaminocyclohexane (tach) or 1,1,1-tris (aminomethyl)ethane (tame) with an 2-ethoxymethylidene-1,3-dicarbonyl compound as well as their Fe(III), Co(III), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes is reported. Fe(III) and Co(III) yield neutral complexes with an octahedral N₃O₃-coordination sphere, Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with a square-planar coordination-sphere. In the later complexes one of the bidentate branches of the ligand is not deprotonated and stays uncoordinated.     

Heterogeneous reactions of solid nickel(II) complexes,VI

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of square-planar complexes of the type Ni(NCS)₂L₂ (L=α-picoline; 2,6-lutidine and quinoline) was studied by following the loss of weight and using the isothermal method, in the temperature range of 72–147°. The reaction order found wasn=2/3; this together with macroscopic observations indicates that it is the proper chemical process which is the controlling factor of the total decomposition rate. The values of the activation energies decrease in the following order: Ni(NCS)₂ Q₂ > Ni(NCS)₂(2,6-lut)₂ > Ni(NCS)₂(α-pic)₂; this points to the reaction course according to the associative activation. Except for Ni(NCS)₂Q₂,ΔH was found to be >E _a. This experimental result may be explained by a multi-step mechanism. Possible intermediates are discussed.     

A mononuclear nickel(II) complex and a dinuclear manganese(III) complex derived from N,N'-bis(5-methoxysalicylidene)-1,2-ethanediamine: Synthesis,crystal structures and catalytic epoxidation property

Synthesis and characterization of a mononuclear nickel(II) complex [NiL] · CH₃OH (I) and a dinuclear manganese(III) complex [Mn₂L₂(NCS)₂] (II) derived from the bis-Schiff base N,N'-bis(5-methoxysalicylidene)-1,2-ethanediamine (H₂L) are reported. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and molar conductivity. Single crystal X-ray structures of the complexes have been determined (CIF files CCDC nos. 1056778 (I) and 1056688 (II)). The Ni atom in I is in a square planar coordination, and the Mn atom in II is in an octahedral coordination. Catalytic property for epoxidation of styrene by the complexes using PhIO and NaOCl as oxidant has been studied. As a result, complex II is efficient for the styrene epoxidation.     

Thermoanalytical Investigation of Magnesium(II) Complexes with Nicotinamide as Bio-Active Ligand

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition was studied for the following Mg(II) nicotinamide (NA) complexes: Mg(Ac)₂(NA)₅·2H₂O (I), Mg(CIAc)₂(NA)₆·6H₂O (II), Mg(Cl₂Ac)₂(NA)₆·5H₂O (III) and Mg(Cl₃Ac)₂(NA)₆·2H₂O (IV), where Ac=CH₃COO⁻, ClAc=ClCH₂COO⁻, Cl₂Ac=Cl₂CHCOO⁻ and Cl₃Ac=Cl₃CCOO⁻. Heating the compounds results first in the release of water molecules. The NA molecules are released in one step (complexes II and III) or in two steps (complexes I and IV). The compositions of the complexes, the solid-state intermediates and the products of thermolysis were identified by means of elemental analysis and complexometric titration. The results reveal that MgO is left as residue at the end of thermal degradation of compounds I–IV, NA is coordinated to Mg(II) through the nitrogen atom of the heterocyclic ring. The IR data indicate unidentate coordination of the carboxylate ions to the Mg(II) in complexes I–IV. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Heteronuclear complexes of oxorhenium(V) with Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and UO2(VI) and their biological activities

Heteronuclear complexes containing oxorhenium(V), with Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and UO₂(VI) ions were prepared by the reaction of the complex ligands [ReO(HL¹)(PPh₃)(OH₂)Cl]Cl (a) and/or [ReO(H₂L²)(PPh₃)(OH₂)Cl]Cl (b), where H₂L¹?=?1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)butane-1,3-dione-3-(5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine-3-ylhydrazone) and H₃L²?=?1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)butane-1,3-dione-3-(1H-benzimidazol-2-ylhydrazone), with transition and actinide salts. Heterodinuclear complexes of ReO(V) with Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Cd(II) were obtained using a 1?:?1 mole ratio of the complex ligand and the metal salt. Heterotrinuclear complexes were obtained containing ReO(V) with UO₂(VI) and Cu(II) using 2?:?1 mole ratios of the complex ligand and the metal salts. The complex ligands a and b coordinate with the heterometal ion via a nitrogen of the heterocyclic ring and the nitrogen atom of the C=N⁷ group. All transition metal cations in the heteronuclear complexes have octahedral configurations, while UO₂(VI)?complexes have distorted dodecahedral geometry. The structures of the complexes were elucidated by IR, ESR, electronic and ¹H NMR spectra, magnetic moments, conductance and TG-DSC measurements. The antifungal activities of the complex ligands and their heteronuclear complexes towards Alternaria alternata and Aspergillus niger showed comparable behavior with some well-known antibiotics.
