A New Sulfato‐bridged Manganese(II) Phenanthroline Complex: [Mn(phen)(H2O)2(SO4)]

The sulfato bridged Mn^II phen complex [Mn(phen)(H₂O)₂SO₄] ( 4 ) consists of [Mn(H₂O)₂(phen)(SO₄)_2/2] chains, which are generated from Mn atoms in distorted octahedral sites interlinked by bidentate sulfato bridges. Interdigitation of phen ligands leads to the formation of [Mn(H₂O)₂(phen)(SO₄)_2/2] double‐chains stabilized by significant π—π stacking interactions. The double‐chains are held together via interchain hydrogen bonds formed between water and sulfato O atoms. Crystal data: orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁ (no. 19), a = 6.674(1), b = 10.359(1), c = 19.913(3)Å, V = 1376.7(3)ų, Z = 4, R = 0.0439 and wR² = 0.0935 for 1830 out of 2286 reflections with F_o² > 2σ(F_o²).     

A Novel Trinuclear Nickel(II) Phenanthroline Suberato Complex: {Ni[Ni(phen)(H2O)4]2L4/2}L · 4H2O (H2L = suberic acid)

The Reaction of freshly precipitated NiCO₃ with phenanthroline and suberic acid in CH₃OH/H₂O at room temperature gave the title complex consisting of polymeric {Ni[Ni(phen)(H₂O)₄]₂L_4/2}²⁺ cationic chains, suberate anions and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The cationic chains are generated from bis‐monodentate suberato ligands bridging the trinuclear {Ni[Ni(phen)(H₂O)₄]₂}⁶⁺ groups, in which the central Ni atom is, via two μ‐H₂O molecules, coordinated to two monodentate cationic [Ni(phen)(H₂O)₄]²⁺ complex ligands at trans positions. The NiO₆ octahedral coordination about the central Ni atom is elongated tetragonally distorted with d(Ni—O) = 2.033—2.166Å and the NiN₂O₄ octahedra about the side Ni atoms are significantly distorted with d(Ni—N) = 2.089, 2.099Å, d(Ni—O) = 2.046—2.117Å. The polymeric cationic chains are assembled via π—π stacking interactions into open 2D layers, between which the suberate anions and crystal H₂O molecules are sandwiched.

Synthesis,crystal structure and magnetic properties of Co(NIT4Py)(H2PDA)(H2O)3

A Co(II)-pyridyl substituted nitronyl nitroxide complex Co(NIT4Py)(H₂PDA)(H₂O)₃ has been synthesized and structurally characterized (NIT4Py: 2-(4′-pyridyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide and H₂PDA: 2,5-pyridine dicarboxylic acid). The compound is in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, a = 16.892(5) Å, b = 7.371(2) Å, c = 18.856(5) Å, β = 108.770(5)°, V = 2223.0(11) ų, Z = 4 and F(000) = 1064.

The molecules are connected as a layered structure by intermolecular hydrogen bond interactions. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal the occurrence of weak antiferromagnetic interactions in the compound.     

A Hydrogen Adipato‐bridged Copper(II) Coordination Polymer: [Cu(bpy)(HL)]2L · 6H2O (bpy = 2, 2'‐Bipyridine,H2L = Adipic Acid)

Reaction of a fresh Cu(OH)_2x(CO₃)_1—x · yH₂O precipitate with adipic acid (H₂L) and 2, 2'—bipyridine (bpy) in ethanolic aqueous solution at room temperature afforded the hydrogen adipato bridged Cu^II coordination polymer [Cu(bpy)(HL)]₂L · 6H₂O consisting of double chains according to {[Cu(bpy)(HL)_2/2]₂L} and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The chains result from [Cu(bpy)]²⁺ units bridged by bis—monodentate hydrogen adipato ligands and further crosslinked by bis—monodentate adipato ligands. Through the interchain π—π stacking interactions and interchain C(bpy)—H···O(adipato) hydrogen bonding interactions, the double chains are assembled into layers, between which the crystal H₂O molecules are located. The Cu atoms are square pyramidally coordinated by two N atoms of one bpy ligand and three O atoms of one adipato ligand and two hydrogen adipato ligands. The doubly bonded oxygen atom of the protonated carboxyl group occupies the apical position (Cu—N: 1.997, 2.005 Å; equatorial Cu—O: 1.925, 1.942 Å; apical Cu—O: 2.354 Å). Furthermore, the thermal behavior of the compound will be discussed. Crystal data: triclinic, P1¯ (no. 2), a = 9.618(1) Å, b = 9.933(1) Å, c = 12.782(2) Å, α = 70.88(1)°, β = 73.70(1)°, γ = 75.60(1)°, V = 1090.7(2) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0453 and wR² = 0.1265 for 4643 observed reflections (F_o² > 2σ(F_o²)) out of 4985 unique reflections.     

Structure and magnetic properties of the ferromagnetically coupled nickel dimer [Ni(terpy)(NCO)(H2O)]2(PF6)2

Summary The crystal structure of the dimeric [{Ni(C₁₅H₁₁N₃)(NCO)(H₂O)}₂](PF₆)₂ has been determined by x-ray diffraction methods. Crystal data are as follows: P 1,a=11.904(4) Å,b=10.392(4) Å,c=8.531(3) Å, =111.87(2)^o, =90.61(3)^o, =107.37(5)^o, U=926.7(4) ų, Z=2, D_m=1.77(2), D_x=1.78 g. cm^–3, (Mo-K)=12.1 cm^–1, F(000)=494. Least-squares refinement of 1230 reflections with I1.5(1) gave a final R =0.035 (R=0.038). The structure is formed by cationic [{Ni(C₁₅H₁₁N₃)(NCO)(H₂O)}₂]²⁺ and anionic PF ₆ ^– units, linked through hydrogen bonds between the water molecule and the hexafluorophosphate ion. The resulting coordination geometry around each nickel(II) ion is ferragonally elongated octahedral. The N-bridging cyanate groups occupy simultaneously an equatorial position in the coordination sphere of one of the nickel atoms and an axial position in the other. The remaining axial positions are occupied by the water molecules. Powder susceptibility data, between 2.0 and 300 K, show the existence of ferromagnetic exchange between nickel centres. The magnetic parameters are J/K=6.6K, D/K =–17.6 K, zJ/K=0.57 and g-2.21.     

Crystal Engineering with the New Linker Tolanedisulfonic Acid (H2TDS): Helical Chains in Zn(TDS)(DMA)3, Linear Chains in Zn(TDS)(NMP)3, and Complex Anions in [HDMA]2[Zn(TDS)2(DMA)3](DMA)2

Reaction of 4,4′‐tolanedisulfonic acid, H₂TDS, with zinc hydroxide in dimethylacetamide, DMA, under solvothermal conditions led to the coordination polymer Zn(TDS)(DMA)₃ ( I ). In the crystal structure [trigonal, P3₂21, Z=3, a=1175.0(1) pm, c=1949.5(1) pm, R₁; wR₂ (I_o> 2σ(I_o))=0.0393; 0.0921] the disulfonate anions linked the Zn²⁺ ions into helical chains according to _∞¹[Zn(DMA)_3/1(TDS)_2/2] ( I ) causing the chirality of the compound. By using higher concentrations of H₂TDS in the starting mixture the compound [HDMA]₂[Zn(TDS)₂(DMA)₃](DMA)₂ ( II ) was formed. The structure [monoclinic, Cc, Z=4, a=1201.5(1) pm, b=1996.0(1) pm, c=2749.2(2) pm, β=101.897(2)°, R₁; wR₂ (I_o> 2σ(I_o))=0.0699; 0.2017] displayed the complex anion [Zn(TDS)₂(DMA)₃]^2? which was a perfect cut‐off of the helical chain in I . Charge compensation was achieved by protonated DMA molecules. If N‐methylpyrrolidone, NMP, was chosen as a solvent, the sulfonate Zn(TDS)(NMP)₃ ( III ) [monoclinic, I2/a, Z=4, a=1575.7(1) pm, b=1077.3(1) pm, c=1870.0(1) pm, β=101.189(9)°, R₁; wR₂ (I_o> 2σ(I_o))=0.0563; 0.1320] was obtained. Similarly to the findings for I , the formation of chains according to _∞¹[Zn(NMP)_3/1(TDS)_2/2] was observed. However, due to the more bulky NMP molecules these chains were no longer helical but straight instead.     

Copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes of 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2,3-trione-2-arylhydrazones

Summary Copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) perchlorate complexes of 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2,3-trione-2-(p-nitrophenyl-hydrazone) (HL¹), 5,5-dimethyl-cyclohexane-1,2,3-trione-2-(p-chlorophenylhydrazone) (HL²), 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2,3-trione-2-(o-chlorophenylhydrazone) (HL⁴), 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2,3-trione-2-(o-methylphenyl-hydrazone) (HL⁵) and 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2,3-trione-2-(m-methylphenylhydrazone) (HL⁶) have been prepared, and characterized using analytical, spectral and magnetic measurements. The data reveal that the reaction of Cu(ClO₄)₂ (1 mol) in EtOH, with all ligands, produces complexes of the type CuL(ClO₄)(H₂O).nH₂O. Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) perchlorates react only with HL¹ and HL² to produce the complexes ML(ClO₄)(H₂O)₃ (where M = Ni^II, L = L^– and L², M = Co^II, L = L¹) and Co(HL₂)₂-(ClO₄)₂.2H₂O. The spectral data show that the ligands behave as monobasic bidentate in their azo forms, except HL² which reacts with cobalt(II) as a neutral bidentate ligand in its hydrazone form.

The magnetic properties show that complex 1 exhibits antiferromagnetic interactions.     

Characterization and electrochemical studies of molybdenum(VI) dioxodialkylbipyridyl complexes. X-ray crystal structure of MoO2(o-MeC6H4CH2)2(bipy)

Summary New Mo^VI-dioxodialkyl complexes, MoO₂R₂(bipy), R = CH₂CH₂Ph and p-MeC₆H₄CH₂; bipy = 2,2-bipyridine, have been synthesized. The i.r. and the ¹H-n.m.r. spectra of these complexes are noted. The structure of MoO₂(o-MeC₆H₄CH₂)₂(bipy) was determined by X-ray analysis. Significant differences in the redox characteristics of these dioxodialkylcompounds are reflected in the contrasting patterns: whereas reduction of MoO₂-(CH₂CH₂Ph) ₂(bipy) is a reversible one-electron process, under similar conditions MoO₂(p-MeC₆H₄CH₂)₂(bipy) and MoO₂(o-MeC₆H₄CH₂)₂(bipy) are reduced irreversibly. Similarly, solutions of MoO₂(CH₂CH₂Ph)₂(bipy) remain unchanged but oxygenated organic products are formed from MoO₂(p-MeC₆H₄CH₂)₂(bipy) and MoO₂ (o-MeC₆H₄CH₂)₂(bipy).

The bibenzyl also forms chelate σ-benzyls HCH₂C₆H₄PPh₂-o) (M = Pd, Pt; X = Cl, Br, I). The ¹H NMR spectra of the o-tolyl methyl groups in the compounds =CHC₆H₄PR₂-o) (M = Ni, Pd, Pt; R = o-CH₃C₆H₄) vary with temperature, probably as a consequence of interconversion of enantiomers arising from restricted rotation about the M---P and M---C bonds. Possible mechanisms for the dehydrogenation reactions are briefly discussed.

A Novel 3D Framework Coordination Polymer based on Succinato bridged Helical Chains Connected by 4, 4' ‐ Bipyridine: [Cu(bpy)(H2O)2(C4H4O4)]?2H2O

Blue needle—shaped crystals of [Cu(bpy)(H₂O)₂(C₄H₄O₄)]· 2H₂O were obtained by slow evaporation of a methanolic aqueous solution containing a fresh Cu(C₄H₄O₄)· 2H₂O precipitate, 4, 4′—bipyridine, and ammonia. Within the complex, the six—coordinated Cu atoms are linked by bis—monodentate gauche succinate anions into chains propagating helically around the [001] axis.

Abstract

2H-1,4-Benzothiazin-3(4H)-ketoximes and 2H-1,4-benzoselenazin-3(4H)-ketoximes were synthesized by the reductive cyclization of bis(o-nitrophenyl) disulfides or diselenides with aromatic or aliphatic β-nitroethylenes using SmI₂ in moderate to good yields under mild conditions.     

Synthesis and spectral studies of copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II) and vanadyl(II) complexes of tridentate Schiff bases of 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-oxo-N,1-diphenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide

Summary Metal(II) chelates of Schiff bases derived from the condensation of 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-oxo-N,1-diphenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide with o-aminophenol (KAAP), o-aminothiophenol (KAAT) or o-aminobenzoic acid (KAAB) have been prepared and characterized. The complexes are of the type [M(N₂X)]₂ for M = Cu^II and M(NX)₂·nH₂O for M = Ni^II, Co^II and VO^II (X = phenolic oxygen, thiophenolic sulphur or carboxylic oxygen; n = 0 or 2). Conductivity data indicate that the complexes are non-ionic. The Schiff bases behave as dibasic tridentate ligands in their copper(II) complexes and as monobasic bidentate ligands in their nickel(II), cobalt(II) and vanadyl(II) complexes. The subnormal magnetic moments of the copper(II) complexes are ascribed to an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction arising from dimerization. Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes are trans octahedral whereas vanadyl(II) complexes are square pyramidal     

Palladium(II), platinum(II) and platinum(IV) complexes of 2-mercapto-3-phenyl-4-quinazolinone: Reactions of palladium(II) chloride and platinum (IV) chloride with 2-mercapto-3-phenyl-4-quinazolinone in the presence and absence of variousN-heterocyclic bases

Summary Reactions of 2-mercapto-3-phenyl-4-quinazolinone (LH) with PdCl₂ · 2H₂O and PtCl₄ · 5H₂O lead to the formation of [ML₂ complexes (M = Pd^II or Pt^II). Reactions of PdCl₂ · 2H₂O with LH in the presence ofN-heterocyclic bases yield compounds of type [PdLClB], (B = py, 3-pic, (o-phen)_1/2, and (bipy)_1/2) or Pd(LH)Cl(imz). PtCl₄] · 5H₂O reacts with LH in the presence of variousN-heterocyclic bases to give [PtL₂B] compounds (B = py, 3-pic, (o-phen)_1/2 or (pyrm)_1/2) and [PtL₂BCl] (B = imz or pz). These complexes have been characterised on the basis of analytical, i.r. and electronic spectral and magnetic measurement studies, and tentative structures for them are proposed.
