Crystal structure of 4,4-bipyridine-containing complexes of copper(II) nitrate with 1-[(2-Hydroxyethylimino)methyl]naphthalen-2-ol and 2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol

The crystal structures of (μ-4,4-bipyridine)-di(nitrato-1-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]naphthalen-2-olocopper (I) and catena-di(μ-4,4’-bipyridine)di(μ-4,4’-bipyridine)-di(nitrato-2-[2-(hydroxyethylimino) methyl]phenolocopper)diaquacopper(II) nitrate (II) were determined. In the crystal of I, each of the two copper atoms coordinates a singly deprotonated tridentate azomethine molecule, a nitrate ion, and bipyridine, which functions as a bridge between the central atoms. The copper coordination polyhedron is a slightly distorted tetragonal pyramid with the base formed by the imine and bipyridine nitrogen atoms and the phenol and alcohol oxygen atoms. The axial site in the pyramid is occupied by the oxygen atom of the monodentate nitrate groups. In the trinuclear structure II with C₂ crystal chemical symmetry, the terminal coordination unit is composed through copper coordination of monodeprotonated 2-[2-(hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol, bipyridine, and the nitrate anion. In the crystal, the trinuclear molecules form infinite ribbons along the z axis in which the pyridine molecules perform the bridging function. The central copper atom has an octahedral configuration formed by the nitrogen atoms of four 4,4’-bipyridine molecules and oxygen of two water molecules.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopy studies of a novel five-coordinated Zn(II) ion complex with l-tyrosine and imidazole

The new five-coordination zinc(II) complex of formula [Zn(Im)(l-tyr)₂]₂·5H₂O consisting of l-tyrosine (l-tyr) and imidazole (Im) molecules as ligands was prepared as crystals and characterized by X-ray diffraction, IR-FIR vibrational and UV-Vis electronic spectroscopy. The [Zn(Im)(l-tyr)₂]₂·5H₂O complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system and P2₁2₁2 space group. The [ZnN₂N′O₂] chromophore has distorted bipiramidal geometry with value of τ parameter 0.7. The sensitive intra and inter-molecular hydrogen bonds created the layers arrangement and the “pseudo-baskets” fashion. The intraligand charge transfer (ILCT) π-π^∗ and π-π^∗ transitions in the ligands molecule are corresponded to the intensity bands in the UV-Vis region.

New Cu(II) complex with acetylpyridine benzoyl hydrazone: experimental and theoretical analysis

This work describes the synthesis and the crystal structure of a copper(II) complex – [Cu(HL)(NO₃)₂]·H₂O – based on 2-acetylpyridine-benzoylhydrazone ligand (HL). In the complex, copper(II) is five-coordinate with two nitrate ligands and a tridentate NNO-donor. The copper center has square pyramidal geometry with an axial nitrate and the equatorial positions occupied by another nitrate and the hydrazone. Besides X-ray studies, the complete structural characterization includes elemental analysis, IR, and UV–vis spectroscopy. Plane wave and localized basis set calculations support the distorted square pyramidal geometry. Theoretical calculations using several DFT functionals were used to study the performance of functionals for this complex. Solvent effect was studied on optimized geometries allowing better support to its spectroscopic data. Noncovalent π?π stacking interactions were also analyzed.     

Synthesis, structure, and antimicrobial activity of copper(II) chelates containing imidazole and condensation products of α-amino acids with salicylaldehyde and its derivatives

Salicylaldehyde, 5-bromo- and 5-nitrosalicylaldehydes, 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carbaldehyde, and 2,3-, 2,4-, and 2,5-dihydroxybenzaldehydes reacted with glycine, alanine, and phenylalanine in ethanol in the presence of imidazole (Im) and copper(II) acetate hydrate to give copper(II) chelates with the composition Cu(Im)(L) · nH₂O (H₂L is the condensation product of the above aldehydes with α-amino acids; n = 0–2). The structure of the complex Cu(Im)(L¹) [H₂L¹ = 2-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)acetic acid] was determined by X-ray analysis. The crystalline structure of [2-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)acetato](imidazole)copper is formed by polymeric chains of the Cu(Im)(L¹) molecules linked through bridging oxygen atoms in the carboxy groups of the Schiff base ligand. The coordination unit has a distorted tetragonal pyramid configuration, where the pyramid base is composed of the phenol and carboxy oxygen atoms, CH=N nitrogen atom in the ligand H₂L¹ and imidazole nitrogen atom. The oxygen atom in the carboxy group in the neighboring molecule occupies the apical position of the coordination pyramid. The other coordination compounds also have polynuclear structure with the Schiff base H₂L acting as doubly deprotonated tridentate O,N,O-ligand and bridging carboxy groups. Thermal decomposition of the complexes includes their dehydration (70–95°C), while complete thermal decomposition occurs at 360–530°C. The synthesized complexes showed selective antimicrobial activity in the concentration range from 75 to 300 μg/ml against a number of standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.     

Nickel(II) complexes of a thiosemicarbazone prepared from 2-Acetylpyridine

Summary The ligand 3-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonane-3-thiocarboxylic acid 2-[1-(2-pyridinyl)ethylidene]hydrazide (HL), which is observed in an unusual tautomeric form in the solid state, and its selenium analogue (HLSe) have been used to prepare a series of nickel(II) complexes. Compounds of the general formula [NiLX] (X=Cl, Br, NCS, N₃, NO₂ or NCSe) as well as [Ni(LSe)Cl] have been found to be diamagnetic, planar complexes. A single crystal study of [NiL(NCS)] shows the deprotonated ligand bound in a tridentate mannervia its pyridyl nitrogen, imine nitrogen and the thione sulphur atom with the nitrogen atom of the thiocyanato-ligand occupying the fourth coordination position. The solids prepared from the nickel(II) salts having tetrafluoroborate, nitrate and iodide ions approximate to octahedral symmetry and have neutral HL ligands coordinated in a bidentate fashionvia the pyridine and imine nitrogens with the remaining coordination sites being occupied by the anions or water molecules. The [NiL₂] solid is also octahedral with the two deprotonated ligands bonding as tridentate groupsvia the same atoms as in the [NiLX] complexes.     

1H and 13C NRM and infrared spectral studies on mixed ligand complexes of the type cis-[Co(en)2(Im)Cl]Cl2

A number of mixed ligand complexes of the type [Co(en)₂(Im)Cl]Cl₂ (Im = imidazole or a substituted imidazole) have been synthesized by reaction of trans-[Co(en₂Cl₂]Cl with the imidazole ligands. Electrical conductivity measurements support the ionic (1:2) formulation of the compounds, the electronic spectra is in agreement with an octahedral stereochemistry, and the IR and NMR (¹H and ¹³C) spectra strongly favour the cis configuration for the isolated complexes, [Co(en)₂(Im)Cl]Cl₂.Trans-[Co(en)₂Cl₂]Cl reacts with KNCS to form cis-[Co(en)₂(NCS)₂Cl, the crystal structure of which is briefly reported. This lends additional support in favour of the probable cis configuration of the above complexes.     

Crystal structures of nitrato-{4-bromo-2-[(2-hydroxyethylimion)methyl]phenolo}-(3,5-Dibromopyridine)copper and nitrato-{2,4-dibromo-6-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenolo}-(3,5-dibromopyridine)copper

The crystal structures of nitrato-{4-bromo-2-[2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenolo}-(3,5-dibromopyridine)copper (I) and nitrato-{2,4-dibromo-6-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenolo}-(3,5-dibromopyridine)copper (II) are determined. The crystals of compound I are orthorhombic: a = 14.157(3) Å, b = 15.420(3) Å, c = 17.494(4) Å, space group Pbca, Z = 8, R = 0.067. The crystals of compound II are monoclinic: a = 10.675 Å, b = 13.973 Å, c = 14.007 Å, β = 111.92°, space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, R = 0.0464. In the structures of compounds I and II, the copper atom coordinates, correspondingly, singly deprotonated 4-bromo-2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol and 2,4-dibromo-6-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol molecules, and 3,5-dibromopyridine, and the nitrate ion. The coordination polyhedron of the copper ion in complexes I and II is a slightly distorted tetragonal pyramid. The bases of the pyramids are formed by the imine and pyridine nitrogen atoms and the phenolic and alcoholic oxygen atoms, and the axial vertices are occupied by the oxygen atoms of the monodentate nitrato groups. In the complexes under study, the six-membered metallocycles have asymmetric gauche conformation. In crystal, complexes I are united, due to the slip plane a, through bifurcate hydrogen bonds into infinite chains along the direction [100]. Complexes II in crystal form two-dimensional networks by means of hydrogen bonds.     

Coordination behaviour of Schiff base 2-acetyl-2-thiazoline hydrazone (ATH) towards cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II)

The synthesis and characterization of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of 2-acetyl-2-thiazoline hydrazone (ATH) are reported. Elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, UV–Vis–NIR diffuse reflectance and magnetic susceptibility measurement, as well as, in the case of copper complex EPR spectroscopy, have been used to characterize the complexes. In addition, the structure of [NiCl₂(ATH)₂] (2) and [{CuCl(ATH)}₂(μ-Cl)₂] (3) have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In all complexes, the ligand ATH bonds to the metal ion through the imine and thiazoline nitrogen atoms. X-ray data indicates that the environment around the nickel atom in 2 may be described as a distorted octahedral geometry with the metallic atom coordinated to two chlorine atoms, two thiazoline nitrogen atoms and two imino nitrogen atoms. With regard to 3, it can be said that its structure consists of dimeric molecules in which copper ions are bridge by two chlorine ligands. The geometry about each copper ion approximates to a distorted square pyramid with each copper atom coordinated to one thiazoline nitrogen atom, one imine nitrogen atom, one terminal chlorine ligand and two bridge chlorine ligands. In compound 3, magnetic susceptibility measurements in the temperature range 2–300 K show an intradimer antiferromagnetic interaction (J = −7.5 cm⁻¹).     

Crystal structure of complexes of pentavalent neptunium with 1,8-bis[2-(diphenylphosphinylmethyl)]phenoxy-3,6-dioxaoctane (L) and hexavalent actinides (U,Np, Pu) with 1,8-bis[2-(diphenylphosphinyl)]phenoxy-3,6-dioxaoctane (L<Superscript>1</Superscript>)

Complexes of pentaand hexavalent actinides with phosphoryl-containing podands incorporating a triethylene glycol fragment and 2-(diphenylphosphinyl)phenyl (L¹) or 2-(diphenylphosphinylmethyl)phenyl (L) end groups were synthesized and structurally characterized. The complexes can be described by the following formulas: [NpO₂L(C₂H₅OH)(NO₃)] (I) for pentavalent neptunium and [AnO₂(L¹)₂](OH)₂ · nH₂O (II), where An is U (IIa), Np (IIb), and Pu (IIc), for the isostructural compounds of hexavalent actinides. In I, L is a bidentate bridging ligand. The Np⁵⁺ coordination polyhedron is a pentagonal bipyramid. The bipyramid equatorial plane is formed by the oxygen atoms of two podands L, the bidentate nitrate ion, and the ethanol OH group. The oxygen atoms of the phosphoryl groups of the podand are involved in the coordination environment of two NpO₂⁺ cations where they connect the electrically neutral neptunoyl nitrate fragments to infinite chains along the [100] direction, which are in turn connected into ribbons by strong hydrogen bonds. The crystal of II consists of the complex cations [AnO₂(L¹)₂]²⁺, hydroxyl ions, and water molecules of crystallization. The environment of AnO₂²⁺ is formed by four ligands L¹ whose oxygen atoms form a tetragonal-bipyramidal coordination environment. Each of the two crystallographically independent ligands L¹ is connected to two AnO₂⁺ cations. This gives positively charged layers of actinyl cations perpendicular to the [010] direction connected by molecular ligands. The layers contain channels accommodating hydroxyl ions and crystallization water molecules.     

Synthesis,crystal structures,and antimicrobial activity of a pair of isostructural dinuclear copper(II) complexes derived from 4-nitro-2-[(2-diethylaminoethylimino)methyl]phenol

A pair of isostructural azido- or thiocyanato-bridged centrosymmetric dinuclear copper(II) complexes, [Cu₂L₂(μ_1,3-N₃)₂] (1) and [Cu₂L₂(μ_1,3-NCS)₂] (2), derived from the Schiff base ligand 4-nitro-2-[(2-diethylaminoethylimino)methyl]phenol (HL), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Each Cu atom in the complexes is five-coordinate in a square pyramidal geometry by one O and two N atoms of one Schiff base ligand, and by two terminal donor atoms from two bridging azide or thiocyanate ligands. Both the azide and thiocyanate ligands adopt end-to-end bridging mode in the complexes. The distance between the two copper atoms is 5.205(2) Å for (1) and 5.515(2) Å for (2). The antimicrobial activity of the complexes has been tested.     

Kristallstruktur von Cadmium-Kupfer-Hydroxidnitrat,CdCu3 (OH)6 (NO3)2·H2O

The crystal structure of cadmium copper hydroxide nitrate, CdCu₃ (OH)₆ (NO₃)₂ · H₂O, has been determined from three dimensional single crystal X-ray data. One single elementary cell of the compound has to be of triclinic symmetry, but as either the crystal is built up from such triclinic domains grown together regularly at angles of 120 degrees, or the nitrate groups of the whole crystal are distributed statistically over three possible orientations standing at 120 degree angles respectively to each other, the structure can also be described in the hexagonal system: a = 6.522 ± 0.005 Å, c = 7.012 ± 0.006 Å, space group D – P 3 m 1, cell content one formula unit. Mixed layers (00.1) of Cu and Cd atoms are embedded between layers consisting of the OH groups and one oxygen atom per nitrate group. The nitrate groups extend with their trigonal plane nearly perpendicular to the layers (00.1) and connect them by hydrogen bridges between the remaining two oxygen atoms and OH groups of the next layer. The Cd atoms are coordinated octahedrally by six equidistant OH groups, and the Cu atoms have a strongly distorted octahedral (4 + 2) coordination with four OH groups and two nitrate oxygens. Thermogravimetric measurements allowed to distinguish the crystal water molecule from variable amounts of excess water. The hydrogen bonds between OH groups and nitrate oxygen atoms and the deformation of the nitrate groups were confirmed by infrared spectra.     

Synthesis and spectroscopic studies of dimeric copper(II) complexes containing imidazoles and dipeptides

Six dimeric copper(II) complexes of the type Na[Cu₂(D)(L)], where D = glycylglycinate dianion, and HL = imidazole and 2-methylimidazole; D = glycyl-L-tyrosinate dianion, HL = imidazole and benzimidazole; D = glycyl-L-phenylalaninate dianion, and HL = imidazole; and D = glycyl-L-tryptophenate dianion, and HL = benzimidazole, have been prepared. They were characterized by IR, visible absorption, and EPR spectroscopy. The EPR data indicated their complete dimeric behaviour in basic solution with two Cu(II) ions in close proximity of <7Å with imidazolate, 2-methyl-imidazolate, and benzimidazolate bridges.     

Synthesis, characterization and luminescence properties of polymeric cadmium(II) complexes with imidazole and its derivatives mediated by thiocyanate and dicyanamide anions

Three new polymeric complexes of cadmium(II) with imidazole and its derivatives [imidazole (Im), benzimidazole (Bim) and 1-methylimidazole (Mim)] mediated by thiocyanate and dicyanamide (dca) anions have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single crystal structure analysis. The structure analyses reveal that complexes [Cd(SCN)₂(Bim)₂]_n (1) and [Cd(dca)₂(Im)₂]_n (2) are 1D coordination polymers, whereas complex [Cd(dca)₂(Mim)₂]_n (3) adopts a 2D network of (4, 4) topology and thereby suggests that the dimensionality of the coordination polymers are affected by the choice of the counter anions and by the organic ligands. All the species exhibit interesting luminescence property in methanol and in solid state originated from ligands-centered π-π* transitions. The π-π interactions occurring between organic rings (Im, Mim, and Bim) are observed to be important in controlling the fluorescence property of the species.

This gives infinite layers parallel to the ab plane. All water molecules form hydrogen bonds within one layer.     

Spectral characteristics and structures of metal complexes with 3-Hydroxy-4,6-dinitro-2-ethoxypyridine: Crystal and molecular structures of di(3-hydroxy-4,6-dinitro-2-ethoxypyridinato)diaquacopper(II)

Seven complexes of manganese(II), copper(II), cadmium, silver(I), samarium(III), and praseodymium( III) with 3-hydroxy-4,6-dinitro-2-ethoxypyridine (HL) were isolated in the crystalline state and studied by IR and UV spectroscopy.
