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.

In the crystals of catena‐poly­[tetrakis(μ‐trimethylsilylacetato‐O:O′)dicopper(II)], [Cu₂(C₅H₁₁O₂Si)₄]_n, (V), the dinuclear Cu^II units of a cage structure are linked by the cyclic Cu—O bonds at the apical positions to form a linear chain by use of a glide translation.     

Novel platinum(II) and (IV) complexes of naphthaldimine schiff bases

Naphthaldimines containing N₂O₂ donor centers react with platinum(II) and (IV) chlorides to give two types of complexes depending on the valence of the platinum ion. For [Pt(II)], the ligand is neutral, [(H₂L¹)PtCl₂]·3H₂O (1) and [(H₂L³)₂Pt₂Cl₄]·5H₂O (3), or monobasic [(HL²)₂Pt₂Cl₂]·2H₂O (2) and [(HL⁴)₂Pt]·2H₂O (4). These complexes are all diamagnetic having square-planar geometry. For [Pt(IV)], the ligand is dibasic, [(L¹)Pt₂Cl₄(OH)₂]·2H₂O (5), [(L²)Pt₃Cl₁₀]·3H₂O (6), [(L³)Pt₂Cl₄(OH)₂]·C₂H₅OH (7) and [(L⁴)Pt₂Cl₆]·H₂O (8). The Pt(IV) complexes are diamagnetic and exhibit octahedral configuration around the platinum ion. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis and IR spectra, electrical conductivity and thermal analyses (DTA and TGA). The molar conductances in DMF solutions indicate that the complexes are non-ionic. The complexes were tested for their catalytic activities towards cathodic reduction of oxygen.     

The rigid isomeric 5-(x-pyridyl)-1H-tetrazole ligands-directed various isopolymolybdate-based compounds: assembly,structures, and properties

Two new isopolymolybdate-based metal–organic complexes, [Cu₂(2-ptz)₂(Mo₄O₁₄)_0.5] (1) and [Cu₃(OH)₂(3-ptz)₄(γ-H₄Mo₈O₂₆)(H₂O)₄]·10H₂O (2) (2-ptzH = 5-(2-pyridyl)-1H-tetrazole, 3-ptzH = 5-(3-pyridyl)-1H-tetrazole), constructed from isomeric ligands with different N-donor sites were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. In 1, each [Mo₄O₁₄]^4? cluster connected with six neighboring [Mo₄O₁₄]^4? clusters through six binuclear [Cu₂(2-ptz)₂]²⁺ subunits to yield a 2-D layer. In 2, bidentate inorganic [Mo₈O₂₆]^4? anions link the trinuclear [Cu₃(OH)₂(3-ptz)₄] clusters to construct a 1-D chain. Adjacent chains connect through Mo–N bonds between the [Mo₈O₂₆]^4? anions and pyridyl groups from the trinuclear clusters to form a 2-D layer. The effect of the N-donor sites of the rigid isomeric ligands on the structures of 1 and 2 was discussed. The electrochemical properties and photocatalytic activities of 1 and 2 have also been studied.     

3D Coordination Polymer Incorporating Discrete Molecular Octahedra

Copper(II) oxalate coordination polymer [{Cu₄(C₂O₄)₄(L)₄}₃ · {Cu₃(C₂O₄)₃(L)₆}₂ · 3L · 25H₂O]_n (L = 3,3′,5,5′‐tetramethyl‐4,4′‐bipyrazole) reveals a structure that is related to the Pt₃O₄ net topology. The 3D linkage is sustained with copper‐oxalate squares and copper‐bipyrazole triangles sharing vertices. The framework supports giant icosahedral cages and entraps discrete molecular octahedra formed by two molecular complexes Cu₃(C₂O₄)₃(L)₆ associated by means of NH‐‐‐N hydrogen bonding. The coexistence of the discrete and 3D portions formed by the same components suggests self‐templation as a key feature of the system. Simpler copper oxalate compounds [Cu(C₂O₄)(L)₂(H₂O)] · CH₃OH · 3.75H₂O and [Cu₂(C₂O₄)₂(L)₅] · L · 11H₂O are concomitant products of the reaction mixture and they exist in the form of molecular mono‐ and binuclear complexes.

The thermal decomposition behavior of oxovanadium(IV)hydroxamate complexes of composition [VO(acac)(C₆H₅C(O)NHO)] (I), [VO(C₆H₅C(O)NHO)₂] (II), [VO(acac)(4-ClC₆H₄C(O)NHO)] (III), [VO(4-ClC₆H₄C(O)NHO)₂] (IV) (where acac = (CH₃COCHCOCH₃ ^–) synthesized from the reactions of VO(acac)₂ with equi- and bimolar amounts of potassium benzohydroxamate and potassium 4-chlorobenzohydroxamate in THF + MeOH solvent medium has been studied by TG and DTA techniques. TG curves indicated that complexes I, II, and IV undergo decomposition in single step to yield VO₂ as the final residue, while complex III decomposes in two steps to yield VO(acac) 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 stability for the complexes has been inferred as IV > I > III > II.     

[VO(SeO3)(H2O)2]·0.5H2O

In poly[[diaquaoxido[μ₃‐trioxidoselenato(2−)]vanadium(IV)] hemihydrate], {[VO(SeO₃)(H₂O)₂]·0.5H₂O}_n, the octahedral V(H₂O)₂O₄ and pyramidal SeO₃ building units are linked by V—O—Se bonds to generate ladder‐like chains propagating along the [010] direction. A network of O—H...O hydrogen bonds helps to consolidate the structure. The O atom of the uncoordinated water molecule lies on a crystallographic twofold axis. The title compound has a similar structure to those of the reported phases [VO(OH)(H₂O)(SeO₃)]₄·2H₂O and VO(H₂O)₂(HPO₄)·2H₂O.     

Koordinationspolymere 1, 2‐Dithiooxalato‐ und 1, 2‐Dithioquadratato‐Komplexe. Synthese und Strukturen von [BaCr2(bipy)2(1, 2‐dtox)4(H2O)2], [Ni(cyclam)(1, 2‐dtsq)]·2DMF, [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)2(H2O)2]·2H2O und [H3O][H5O2][Cu(cyclam)]3[Cu2(1, 2‐dtsq)3]2

Coordination Polymeric 1, 2‐Dithiooxalato and 1, 2‐Dithiosquarato Complexes. Syntheses and Structures of [BaCr₂(bipy)₂(1, 2‐dtox)₄(H₂O)₂], [Ni(cyclam)(1, 2‐dtsq)]·2DMF, [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H2₂, and [H₃O][H₅O₂][Cu(cyclam)]₃[Cu₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]₂ 1, 2‐Dithioxalate and 1, 2‐dithiosquarate ions have a pair of soft and hard donor centers and thus are suited for the formation of coordination polymeric complexes containing soft and hard metal ions. The structures of four compounds with building blocks containing these ligands are reported: In [BaCr₂(bipy)₂(1, 2‐dtox)₄(H₂O)₂] Barium ions and pairs of Cr(bipy)(1, 2‐dtox)₂ complexes form linear chains by the bisbidentate coordination of the dithiooxalate ligands towards Ba²⁺ and Cr³⁺. In [Ni(cyclam)(1, 2‐dtsq)]·2DMF short NÖH···O hydrogen bonds link the NiS₂N₄‐octahedra with C_2v‐symmetry to an infinite chain. In [Ni(cyclam)Mn(1, 2‐dtsq)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O the 1, 2‐dithiosquarato ligand shows a rare example of S‐coordination towards manganese(II). The sulfur atoms of cis‐MnO₂S₄‐polyedra are weakly coordinated towards the axial sites of square‐planar NiN₄‐centers, thus forming a zig‐zag‐chain of Mn···Ni···Mn···Ni polyhedra. [H₃O][H₅O₂][Cu (cyclam)]₃[Cu₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]₂ contains square planar [Cu^II(cyclam)]²⁺ ions and dinuclear [Cu^I₂(1, 2‐dtsq)₃]^4— ions. Here each copper atom is trigonally planar coordinated by S‐donor atoms of the ligands. The Cu…Cu distance is 2.861(4)Å.     

Solid complexes of iron(II) and iron(III) with rutin

Solid complex compounds of Fe(II) and Fe(III) ions with rutin were obtained. On the basis of the elementary analysis and thermogravimetric investigation, the following composition of the compounds was determined: (1) FeOH(C₂₇H₂₉O₁₆)·5H₂O, (2) Fe₂OH(C₂₇H₂₇O₁₆)·9H₂O, (3) Fe(OH)₂(C₂₇H₂₉O₁₆)·8H₂O, (4) [Fe₆(OH)₂(4H₂O)(C₁₅H₇O₁₂)SO₄]·10H₂O. The coordination site in a rutin molecule was established on the basis of spectroscopic data (UV–Vis and IR). It was supposed that rutin was bound to the iron ions via 4C=O and 5C—oxygen in the case of (1) and (3). Groups 5C–OH and 4C=O as well as 3′C–OH and 4′C–OH of the ligand participate in binding metals ions in the case of (2). At an excess of iron(III) ions with regard to rutin under the synthesis conditions of (4), a side reaction of ligand oxidation occurs. In this compound, the ligands’ role plays a quinone which arose after rutin oxidation and the substitution of Fe(II) and Fe(III) ions takes place in 4C=O, 5C–OH as well as 4′C–OH, 3′C–OH ligands groups. The magnetic measurements indicated that (1) and (3) are high-spin complexes.     

Assembly of 1-D and decanuclear cage compounds from copper halide,cyclohexenephosphonic acid,and 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole

The reactions of cyclohexenephosphonic acid (C₆H₉PO₃H₂) and 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole (2-pyPzH) with copper(II) chloride and copper(II) bromide affords a 1-D compound [Cu(2-pyPz)Cl] (1) and a decanuclear [Cu₁₀(OH)₄(C₆H₉PO₃)₆(2-pyPz)₄] (2) cage complex. In 1, adjacent copper ions are bridged by two 2-pyPz ligands into dimers, which are further linked by Cl^? into a ladder-like chain. Compound 2 has a decanuclear cage structure, the overall cage can be viewed as composed of two Cu₄(OH)₂(2-pyPz)₂ wings that are bridged by a central Cu₂P₂O₆ rim. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies indicate that both compounds show antiferromagnetic interactions between copper centers.     

Synthesis and characterization of new copper(II) complex compounds with chlorhexidine. Part I

Three new copper(II) complex compounds with chlorhexidine diacetate as a ligand have been prepared and characterized by elemental and thermogravimetrical analyses, molar conductances, magnetic susceptibility measurements, infrared, electronic and EPR spectra. The complexes correspond to the formulas: [Cu₂(CHX)Cl₄]·2C₂H₅OH, [Cu₂(CHX)Br₄]·2C₂H₅OH and [Cu₂(CHX)(CH₃COO)₂] (CH₃COO)₂·2C₂H₅OH, where CHX = chlorhexidine, their composition and stereochemistry depending on the reaction conditions and the metal salt used. Chlorhexidine acts as neutral tetradentate NNNN donor, coordinating through the four imine nitrogen atoms. Investigations on antimicrobial activity in vitro show that all the complexes are active against the tested microorganisms, the complex with chloride being more active against Gram negative bacteria than chlorhexidine diacetate..
