ELECTRONIC AND LIGAND STRUCTURE DICTATED EFFECTS FOR TRIGONAL,TETRAGONAL AND RHOMBIC SYMMETRIES OF TRANSITION METAL CAGE COMPLEXES

Abstract

Spectroscopic and structural data of series of complexes with widely varied metal centers (d⁰ to d¹⁰) and an identical ligand sphere (figure) are presented. The structures comprise a range from near octahedral to near trigonal prismatic geometries and also involving additional small tetragonal perturbations. The complete series allows for an analysis of the various influences, viz. bonding and non-bonded interactions which dictate the compromise structure. Axial and rhombic distortions in solution and solid state of selected examples are discussed on the basis of electronic and EPR spectroscopy and trigonal distortions are analyzed on the basis of twist angles calculated from X-ray data.     

SPECTRAL CHARACTERISTICS OF FREE AND LINKED PYRENE-TYPE CHROMOPHORES IN SOLUTION,POLYMER MATRICES,AND INTERPENETRATING NETWORKS

Monomers, 1-pyrenylmethyl methacrylate (PyMMA), 1-pyrenylbutyl methacrylate (PyBMA), 4-(1-pyrenyl)methoxymethyl styrene (PyMMS) and allyl-(1-pyrenylmehtyl) ether (PyMAE), with pyrene as chromophore, were prepared. Their spectral properties (absorption, emission and emission decay) in solution, and doped or bonded in polymer matrices and complex polymer systems as interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN), were investigated. Spectral properties of pyrene-containing monomers doped in polystyrene (PS), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyvinylchloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE) and grafted on PE as well as copolymerized in buthylmethacrylate-co-styrene copolymer (BMA-co-S) have been compared. Absorption and emission spectra of pyrene type probes in solution and in IPN matrices exhibit typical absorption of the pyrene moiety. For IPN with grafted probes on PE, the absorption is slightly shifted to red wavelength. For monomers, PyMMA, PyBMA and PyMAE grafted to PE, the shape of the emission spectrum depends on the wavelength of excitation. The ratio of intensity of the vibrational band, I₁/I₃, (I₁ peak at 377 nm and I₃ peak at 388 nm) has been a quite useful indicator of polarity of IPN. The relative quantum yields of fluorescence in IPN matrices are lower in comparison to polymer matrices of PE, PS, PMMA for all probes under study. The fluorescence life-times for bound and free probes have been in the range 100–200 ns, which is substiantialy shorter than for the parent pyrene chromophore under the same or similar condition. Grafted probes on PE alone, or as a part of IPN, exhibit substantially shorter life-time around 10 ns and decay is rather complex.

BIS(DIAZASILAPHOSPHETIDINES) AND THEIR METAL COMPLEXES

The syntheses and solid-state structures of bis(diazasilaphosphetidines) of the type [Me ₂ Si(μ-N ^t Bu) ₂ P] ₂ NR, R = Ph, ⁱ Pr, ^t Bu, of the P-chiral analogue [Me ₂ Si(μ-N ^t Bu)(μ-N-2,6- ⁱ PrPh)P] ₂ (C ₂ H ₄ ), and of some of their metal complexes are reported. The highly electron-rich, modular bis(phosphines) are easy to synthesize and may have applications in catalysis.     

THE INTERACTIONS BETWEEN PERIPHERAL AND CENTRAL UNITS IN SUPRAMOLECULAR AND METALLOSUPRAMOLECULAR STRUCTURES: THE CHARACTERIZATION OF SOME MONO-, DI- AND TRINUCLEAR COMPLEXES OF A VICINAL OXIME-IMINE LIGAND

Abstract

The 1:1 molar ratio reaction of p-phenylenediamine with isonitrosoacetylacetone in chloroform led to the formation of the half unit ligand (HL); (1). Two types of the trans octahedral (L)₂Ni 2H₂O complex were characterized; the green molecular complex (2) and the associated supramolecular dark brown complex (3). Molecular association in (3) took place via inter-molecular hydrogen bonding between the amino group of a molecule and the oxygen sites of an adjacent molecule. The 1:1 molar ratio reactions of (2) with the metal acetates M(OAc)₂ (M = divalent nickel, copper or cobalt) produced the self-assembly structure (4) whereby the metal acetate is coordinated to the amino groups of the nickel(II) complex. Reaction of the dinuclear (4) with another metal acetate (1:1 molar ratio) gave the trinuclear terminated structure (5). Similar reactions of (3) with nickel acetate (1:1 or 1:2) led to formation of complexes with metallosupramolecular structures. An antiferromagnetic interaction between the peripheral and central paramagnetic units was observed from those complexes with copper(II) at the peripheral location. In all these cases the metal ions are bridged via the aromatic Schiff-base moiety. The suggested structures of the mono-, di- and trinuclear coordination compounds are in accordance with the analytical, spectral and magnetic moment data.     

REDUCTIVE DEIMINATION OF SULFOXIMIDES AND SULFIMIDES WITH P-TOLUENESULFONYL NITRITE AND T-BUTYL THIONITRATE1

Abstract

Reduction of sulfimides and sulfoximides with p-toluenesulfonyl nitrite, a new nitrosating agent, gave nearly quantitatively the corresponding deimination products, sulfides and sulfoxides, respectively. In the reaction of dialkyl and aryl alkyl sulfoximides with t-butyl thionitrate, N-t-butylthiosulfoximides were obtained besides the usual deimination products, although diaryl sulfoximides were readily deiminated to the corresponding sulfoxides in good yields in the same treatment. t-Butyl thionitrate was also found to deiminate diphenyl sulfimide to give diphenyl sulfide in good yield. Sulfoximides reacted sluggishly with t-butyl thionitrite, however, eventually affording a small amount of sulfoxides.     

SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL BIDENTATE (Te,N) LIGANDS-2-ARYLTELLUROETHYLAMINES AND THEIR COMPLEXATION WITH MERCURY (II)

Abstract

Sodium aryltellurolate (ArTe^?Na⁺, where Ar = 4-MeOC₆H₄ or 4-EtOC₆H₄) reacts with 2- bromoethylamine resulting in the (Te, N) ligands 2-aryltelluroethylamine (ArTeCH₂CH₂NH₂, 1) which have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra. With HgCI₂, they form HgC1₂·1 type of complexes. IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of the complexes suggest that 1 ligates as a bidentate ligand with respect to Hg(II). Osmometric molecular weight measurements suggest that on heating the mercury complex HgCl₂·lb (Ar = 4-EtOC₆H₄) in solution, relatively less soluble species result. It seems to have two Hg atoms bridged by two (Te, N) ligands. The HgC₂·la (Ar = 4-MeOC₆H₄) has very low solubility in organic solvents and. therefore, seems to be dimerized or polymerized during the synthesis. Analysis of CH₂ rocking bands in IR spectra suggests that two CH₂ groups of the ligands are most probably in a gauche conformation in the mercury complexes.     

The determination of chlorinated biphenyls,chlorinated dibenzodioxins,and chlorinated dibenzofurans by GC-MS

High resolution gas chromatography, with mass selective detection, has been used for the analysis of PCB on methyl 50 % octyl polysiloxane (SB 50 Octyl), methyl octadecyl polysiloxane, and a smectic polysiloxane (SB Smectic); and for the analysis of polychlorodibenzodioxins and polychlorodibenzofurans with 1 to 8 chlorine substituents on 100 % cyanopropyl siloxane (SP 2331), smectic polysiloxane (SB Smectic), a new polar stationary phase (DB-Dioxin). The analysis has also been performed by column coupling.     

N-PHOSPHORYL AMINO ACIDS AND PEPTIDES: PART I. THE CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF N-(O,O-DIISOPROPYL PHOSPHORYL)-TRANS-4-HYDROXY-D,L-PROLINE

Abstract

The crystal and molecular structure of N-(O,O-diisopropyl phosphoryl)-trans-4-hydroxy-D,L-proline has been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis and is compared with proline or hydroxyproline residue in a peptide chain described in the literature. The compound crystallized in orthorhombic system with space group P2₁2₁2₁, a=6.934(2), b=8.694(3), c=26.727(7) Å, V=1611.3(8) ų, Z=4, Dx=1.22 g/cm³. The structure was solved by direct method and refined by anisotropic least squares to a discrepancy index R=0.072. In the compound, the nitrogen atom is trigonal and its remaining 2p orbital is conjugated with the P?Oπ system; the conformation of the phosphorimidate function is favoured by the trans orientation of the P=O bond with respect to the N-C4 bond. In the pyrrolidine ring moeity, the C2-C1-N-C4 atoms are nearly copolnar and the C3 atom is out of the plane by about 0.47 Å.
