Bis(pyrazolylethyl)thioether ligation to zinc and cadmium: structural characterization of [S(CH2CH2pzMe2)2]ZnCl2, [S(CH2CH2pzMe2)2]CdI2 and [S(CH2CH2pzMe2)2]Cd(NO3)2

Structural characterization of [S(CH₂CH₂pz^Me₂)₂]ZnCl₂ by X-ray diffraction demonstrates that the potentially tridentate [NNS] donor ligand S(CH₂CH₂pz^Me₂)₂ does not coordinate via sulfur, but only binds through the pyrazolyl groups. Furthermore, the ligand does not chelate, but preferentially bridges two zinc centers, thereby resulting in a polymeric, helical, structure. In contrast to the zinc system, the thioether functionality does bind to cadmium in related derivatives, [S(CH₂CH₂pz^Me₂)₂]CdI₂ and [S(CH₂CH₂pz^Me₂)₂]Cd(NO₃)₂.     

Blue-luminescent/electroluminescent Zn(II) compounds of 7-azaindole and N-(2-pyridyl)-7-azaindole: Zn(7-azaindole)2(CH3COO)2, Zn(NPA)(CH3COO)2, and Zn(NPA)((S)-(+)-CH3CH2CH(CH3)COO)2 (NPA = N-(2-pyridyl)-7-azaindole)

A new 7-azaindole zinc(II) compound, Zn(7-azaindole)2(CH3COO)2 (1), a new ligand N-(2-pyridyl)-7-azaindole (NPA), and two NPA zinc(II) complexes, Zn(NPA)(CH3COO)2 (2) and Zn(NPA)((S)-(+)-CH3CH2CH(CH3)COO)2 (3), have been synthesized and structurally characterized.

In solution, compounds 2 and 3 are fluxional, as established by 1H NMR experiments. Compound 1 is thermally stable, whereas compounds 2 and 3 undergo decomposition when heated in the solid state. A blue electroluminescent device using compound 1 as the emitting layer has been fabricated.

An unusual two-dimensional zinc phosphate with pendant phosphate groups, projecting into the inter-lamellar space between the layers, has been synthesized and is shown to transform into a three-dimensional structure with 16-membered bifurcated channels, giving evidence for the building up process in the formation of open-framework structures.

Concentration potentials in zinc sulphate, copper sulphate, nickel sulphate and cobalt sulphate solutions across liquid membranes based on myristates and laurates of zinc, copper, nickel and cobalt and caprate and caprylate of copper have been studied in concentration cells in which the liquid membrane separates the two solutions of the same electrolyte. The behaviour of the cell with heavy metal soap liquid ion-exchange membranes becomes more and more nernstian as the number of carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon chain of the fatty acid soap increases. Concentration potential values with copper, zinc, nickel or cobalt soap follow the order of their insolubility in water. The failure to record the theoretical potentials as calculated by Nernst's equation has been explained by considering the transport of water across organic phase by hydrated ions and the dissolution of heavy metal soaps in aqueous solutions. Liquid membranes based on heavy metal myristate soaps when used in concentration cells could measure the activities of zinc, copper, nickel and cobalt ions in the concentration range of 10^?4–10^?1M.     

Zinc diphosphonates templated by organic amines: syntheses and characterizations of [NH3(CH2)2NH3]Zn(hedpH2)2*2H2O and [NH3(CH2)nNH3(CH2)nNH3]Zn2(hedpH)2*2H2O (n=4,5,6) (hedp=1-hydroxyethylidenediphophonate)

Four new zinc diphosphonate compounds with formulas [NH(3)(CH(2))(2)NH(3)]Zn(hedpH(2))(2).2H(2)O, 1, [NH(3)(CH(2))(n)()NH(3)]Zn(2)(hedpH)(2).2H(2)O, (n = 4, 2; n = 5, 3; n = 6, 4) (hedp = 1-hydroxyethylidenediphosphonate) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions at 110 degrees C and in the presence of alkylenediamines NH(2)(CH(2))(n)()NH(2) (n = 2, 4, 5, 6). Crystallographic data for 1: monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 24.7422(15), b = 5.2889(2), c = 16.0338(2) A, beta = 117.903(1) degrees, V = 1856.17(18) A(3), Z = 4; 2: monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n, a = 5.4970(3), b = 12.1041(6), c = 16.2814(12) A, beta = 98.619(5) degrees, V = 1071.07(11) A(3), Z = 2; 3: monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n, a = 5.5251(2), b = 12.5968(3), c = 16.1705(5) A, beta = 99.182(1) degrees, V = 1111.02(6) A(3), Z = 2; 4: triclinic, space group P-1, a = 5.4785(2), b = 14.1940(5), c = 16.0682(6) A, alpha = 81.982(2) degrees, beta = 89.435(2) degrees, gamma = 79.679(2) degrees, V = 1217.11(8) A(3), Z = 2. In compound 1, two of the phosphonate oxygens are protonated. The metal ions are bridged by the hedpH(2)(2-) groups through three of the remaining four phosphonate oxygens, forming a one-dimensional infinite chain. The protonated ethylenediamines locate between the chains in the lattice. In compounds 2-4, only one phosphonate oxygen is protonated. Compounds 2 and 3 have a similar three-dimensional open-network structure composed of [Zn(2)(hedpH)(2)](n) double chains with strong hydrogen bonding interactions between them, thus generating channels along the [100] direction. The protonated diamines and water molecules reside in the channels. Compound 4 contains two types of [Zn(2)(hedpH)(2)](n) double chains which are held together by strong hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network. The interlayer spaces are occupied by the [NH(3)(CH(2))(6)NH(3)](2+) cations and water molecules. The significant difference between structures 2-4 is also featured by the coordination geometries of the zinc atoms. The geometries of those in 2 can be described as distorted octahedral, and those in 3 as distorted square pyramidal. In 4, two independent zinc atoms are found, each with a distorted octahedral and a tetrahedral geometry, respectively.     

Synthesis and Structure of a Three‐dimensional Organically Templated Zinc Ethylenediphosphonate, [NH3(CH2)2NH3][Zn3{O3P(CH2)2}4]

A hydrothermal reaction of a mixture of ZnO, HCl, ethylenediphosphonic acid, ethylenediamine, acetic acid in a water, THF mixture gave rise to a new three‐dimensional zinc ethylenediphosphonate, [NH₃(CH₂)₂NH₃][Zn₃{O₃P(CH₂)₂}₄], I . The structure, determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction, (monoclinic, space group = C2/c, a = 16.9948(14), b = 6.7383(6), c = 16.8886(14)Å, β = 1113.568(1)°, V = 1772.7(3)ų, Z = 4, R₁ = 0.0227, wR₂ = 0.0601), consists of a network of strictly alternating ZnO₄ and PO₃C tetrahedral units linked through their vertices forming the three‐dimensional structure. The amine molecules occupy the middle of the 8‐membered channels and interact with the framework through the hydrogen bonds. Unlike other zinc diphosphonates, I appear to have close similarity to zinc phosphate structures reported in the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first three‐dimensional zinc diphosphonate prepared in the presence of an organic amine molecule.     

Zn6[MeN(CH2CO2)(CH2PO3)](6)(Zn)]4- anion: the first example of the oxo-bridged Zn6 octahedron with a centered Zn(II) cation

Hydrothermal reactions of N-(phosphonomethyl)-N-methylglycine, MeN(CH(2)CO(2)H)(CH(2)PO(3)H(2)) (H(3)L), with zinc(II) acetate resulted in the formation of a novel zinc carboxylate-phosphonate, [Zn(6)L(6)(Zn)][Zn(H(2)O)(6)](2) x 22H(2)O (1). The structure of 1 contains a heptanuclear zinc phosphonate cluster anion, [Zn(6)L(6)(Zn)](4-), in which seven zinc(II) cations form an unusual Zn(6)(Zn) centered octahedron with six of its Zn(3) triangle faces each further capped by a phosphonate group. The Zn(II) cations of the Zn(6) octahedron are five-coordinated whereas the centered Zn(II) cation is octahedrally coordinated. Packing of these cluster anions creates micropores occupied by the hydrated zinc(II) cations as well as lattice water molecules. The structural skeleton of 1 is retained after the removal of the lattice water molecules.     

New superhindered polydentate polyphosphine ligands P(CH2CH2P(t)Bu2)3, PhP(CH2CH2P(t)Bu2)2, P(CH2CH2CH2P(t)Bu2)3, and their ruthenium(II) chloride complexes

The synthesis and characterization of the extremely hindered phosphine ligands, P(CH(2)CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(3) (P(2)P(3)(tBu), 1), PhP(CH(2)CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(2) (PhP(2)P(2)(tBu), 2), and P(CH(2)CH(2)CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(3) (P(3)P(3)(tBu), 3) are reported, along with the synthesis and characterization of ruthenium chloro complexes RuCl(2)(P(2)P(3)(tBu)) (4), RuCl(2)(PhP(2)P(2)(tBu)) (5), and RuCl(2)(P(3)P(3)(tBu)) (6). The bulky P(2)P(3)(tBu) (1) and P(3)P(3)(tBu) (3) ligands are the most sterically encumbered PP(3)-type ligands so far synthesized, and in all cases, only three phosphorus donors are able to bind to the metal center. Complexes RuCl(2)(PhP(2)P(2)(tBu)) (5) and RuCl(2)(P(3)P(3)(tBu)) (6) were characterized by crystallography. Low temperature solution and solid state (31)P{(1)H} NMR were used to demonstrate that the structure of RuCl(2)(P(2)P(3)(tBu)) (4) is probably analogous to that of RuCl(2)(PhP(2)P(2)(tBu)) (5) which had been structurally characterized.

Thermal decomposition of di-t-butyl peroxide in the presence of (CH3)2CCH2: Reactions of CH3, (CH3)2ĊCH2CH3, and (CH3)2ĊCH2C(CH3)2CH2CH3 radicals

A study of the reaction initiated by the thermal decomposition of di-t-butyl peroxide (DTBP) in the presence of (CH₃)₂C?CH₂ (B) at 391–444 K has yielded kinetic data on a number of reactions involving CH₃ (M·), (CH₃)₂CCH₂CH₃ (MB·) and (CH₃)₂?CH₂C(CH₃)₂CH₂CH₃ (MBB·) radicals. The cross-combination ratio for M· and MB· radicals, rate constants for the addition to B of M· and MB· radicals relative to those for their recombination reactions, and rate constants for the decomposition of DTBP, have been determined. The values are, respectively, where θ = RT ln 10 and the units are dm^3/2 mol^?1/2 s^?1/2 for k₂/k and k₉/k, s^?1 for k₀, and kJ mol^?1 for E. Various disproportionation-combination ratios involving M·, MB·, and MBB· radicals have been evaluated. The values obtained are: Δ₁(M·, MB·) = 0.79 ± 0.35, Δ₁(MB·, MB·) = 3.0 ± 1.0, Δ₁(MBB·, MB·) = 0.7 ± 0.4, Δ₁(M·, MBB·) = 4.1 ± 1.0, Δ₁(MB·, MBB·) = 6.2 ± 1.4, and Δ₁(MBB·, MBB·) = 3.9 ± 2.3, where Δ₁ refers to H-abstraction from the CH₃ group adjacent to the center of the second radical, yielding a 1-olefin. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

First aminoacetone chelate: [Co(tren){NH2CH2C(O)CH3}]3+-a substrate binding and activation model for zinc(II)-dependent 5-aminolaevulinic acid dehydratase

The complex p-[Co(tren){NH(2)CH(2)C(O)CH(3)}](ClO(4))(3).H(2)O was produced stereoselectively from [Co(tren)(O(3)SCF(3))(2)]O(3)SCF(3) () and 2-(aminomethyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane. The structure of was determined by X-ray crystallography. The complex is the first aminoacetone chelate to be reported and the first structurally characterized example of a non-conjugated ketone moiety coordinated to cobalt(iii). The robust complex was stable to aquation in strong acid and behaved as an acid with pK(a) = 4.99(1) indicative of a strong activation of the aminoacetone ligand towards deprotonation. The complex constitutes a structural model for a proposed substrate binding mode relevant for substrate activation of the zinc(ii)-dependent enzyme 5-aminolaevulinic acid dehydratase.

The mass spectral fragmentations of various thioformaldehydes, 1,3,5-trithiacyclohexane, 1,3,5,7-tetrathiacyclooctane, 1,3,5,7,9-pentathiacyclodecane and a polymeric form (CH₂S)_x have been examined. The principal features of the spectra are reported. The fragmentation occurred by fracture of the ring in the cyclic compounds with or without rearrangement.     

upper bond 1 start]PdCl[PPh(2)CH(2)CH(2)C[upper bond 1 end]HCH(2)CH(2)PPh(2)] as a precursor to homo- and hetero-metallic species directed by ESMS (electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry)

The cyclometallated Pd compound [upper bond 1 start]PdCl[PPh(2)CH(2)CH(2)C[upper bond 1 end]HCH(2)CH(2)PPh(2)], obtained from PdCl(2)(Ph(2)P(CH(2))(5)PPh(2)) in refluxing DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide), was characterized by NMR and X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. The cyclometallation of MCl(2)(Ph(2)P(CH(2))(5)PPh(2))(M = Pd, Pt) to give and its Pt(ii) analogue was probed using electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESMS). The reactivity of towards neutral ligands such as phosphines and pyridines as well as basic metal complexes such as pyridine-thiolate compounds of Au(i), Hg(ii) and Pt(ii) in solution was also investigated. The results showed that the chloride trans to the Pd-C bond is susceptible to ligand replacement. A number of entry metalloligands was examined in an attempt to establish a route to cyclometallated aggregates and clusters.     

Vibrational study on structural transitions of potassium pelargonate CH3(CH2)7CO2K

Anhydrous potassium pelargonate (KC9) undergoes four thermal transitions from room temperature to 450 degrees C. A normal mode analysis was made for the molecule in phase I at room temperature and the molecule was considered to have an all-trains conformation. With increasing temperature, partial melting of the alkyl chains occurred in phase II and complete melting was observed in phase III, as confirmed by vibrational spectra. In addition, orientational disorder of the carboxylate groups was suggested in phase II. This transition behavior of potassium pelargonate was compared with the behavior of nonane and pelargonic acid.

Crystal Structures of [Zn(O₂C–CH₃)₂(HNPEt₃)], [Cu₅(O₂C–CH₃)₁₀(HNPEt₃)₂], and [Cu(O₂C–CH₃)₂(HNPEt₃)₂] The title compounds originate from the anhydrous acetates of zinc and copper(II) with trimethylsilyl-triethylphosphanimine, Me₃SiNPEt₃, in the presence of water in dichloromethane. They form colourless ( 1 ), bluish-green ( 2 ), and blue ( 3 ), respectively, single crystals, which were characterized by IR spectroscopy and by crystal structure analyses. [Zn(O₂C–CH₃)₂(HNPEt₃)] ( 1 ): Space group P 4 2₁c, Z = 8, lattice dimensions at –83 °C: a = b = 1709.6(2), c = 982.4(1) pm, R = 0.0551. 1 has a polymeric chain structure in which the zinc atoms are μ₂-bridged via the oxygen atoms of one of the two acetato groups, while the second acetato group and the phosphanimine are bonded terminally. [Cu₅(O₂C–CH₃)₁₀(HNPEt₃)₂]( 2 · 4 CH₂Cl₂): Space group P2₁/c, Z = 8, lattice dimensions at –80 °C: a = 1761.18(13), b = 4074.5(2), c = 1733.34(15) pm, β = 91.383(10)°, R = 0.0413. 2 consists of the two structural units [Cu₂(O₂C–CH₃)₄] and [Cu₃(O₂C–CH₃)₆(HNPEt₃)₂], which are connected via two of the acetato groups of the Cu₃-unit along the crystallographic a-axis to form three crystallographically independent polymeric strands.

Syntheses,characterizations and crystal structures of two new complexes, [Co2(CH2 =C(CH3)CO2)4(phen)2(H2O)2] and [Pb2(CH2 =C(CH3)CO2)4(phen)2]

Two new complexes, [Co₂(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₄(phen)₂(H₂O)₂] (1) and [Pb₂(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₄(phen)₂] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) (2), have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. There are two cocrystallized conformers of [Co(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₂(phen)(H₂O)] in the asymmetric unit of 1 with the Co atoms displaying similar coordination modes. In the asymmetric unit of 2, there exist two crystallographically independent [Pb(CH₂=C(CH₃)CO₂)₂(phen)] molecules with the Pb atoms showing completely different coordination geometries. Weak intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking are responsible for the supramolecular assembly and stabilization of the crystal structures of 1 and 2. The complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, and UV–Vis spectra. The fluorescent properties of 2 are also discussed.

Synthesis and characterization of ferrocenylalkoxygermatranes and crystal structures of FcCH2OGe (OCH2CH2)3N and FcCH(CH3)OGe(OCH2CH2)3N1

Germatranes bearing a ferrocenylalkoxyl moiety have been obtained by the reaction of HOGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N with various ferrocenyl alcohols. A convenient new synthesis method of FcCH₂OGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N was reported. FcCH₂OGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N was prepared in 93% yield when FcCH₂OH reacted with HOGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N in chloroform at room temperature in the presence of molecular sieves (3 Å) as a dehydrating agent. All compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR and IR spectroscopy. The molecular structures of FcCH₂OGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N and FcCH(CH₃)OGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N have been determined by X‐ray diffraction. The antitumor activities of FcCH₂OGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N and p‐FcC₆H₄CH₂OGe(OCH₂CH₂)₃N were determined. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
