Interaction of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) with 12- and 14-membered macrocycles containing O2N2 donors

The 12- and 14-membered diazadioxo macrocyclic ligands, 1,2?:?7,8-diphenyl-6,9-diaza-3,12-dioxocyclododecane (L¹) and 1,2?:?8,9-diphenyl-7,10-diaza-3,14-dioxocyclotetradecane (L²), were synthesized by condensation between o-phenylenediamine, 1,2-dibromoethane/1,3-dibromopropane, and catechol. Metal complexes [ML¹Cl₂] and [ML²Cl₂] [M?=?Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)] were prepared by interaction of L¹ or L² with metal(II) chlorides. The ligands and their complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR, EPR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity measurements, and Electrospray ionization-mass spectral (ESI-MS) studies. The results of elemental analyses, ESI-MS, Job's method, and conductivity measurements confirmed the stoichiometry of ligands and their complexes while absorption bands and resonance peaks in IR and NMR spectra confirmed the formation of ligand framework around the metal ions. Stereochemistry was inferred from the UV-Vis, EPR, and magnetic moment studies.     

Ligand- and anion-directed assembly of exo-coordinated mercury(II) halide complexes with O2S2-donor macrocycles

Assembly reactions of mercury(II) halides (Cl, Br, and I) with two O2S2 macrocycles (L(1) and L(2)) having different interdonor (S...S) distances were investigated, and four types of supramolecular complexes (1-4b) were obtained depending on the S...S distances as well as the size of the halide anions. Photoluminescence of these compounds was also studied.     

CHROMOTROPIC CHANGES OF Cu(II) AND Ni(II) COMPLEXES WITH N2O2 AND N3O2 SCHIFF-BASE LIGANDS IN THE SOLID PHASE

Abstract

Four new Schiff-base ligands have been prepared from the condensation of 3-formyl-4-hy-droxy-1,8-naphthyridin-2-one with different diamines and a triamine, H₂L_a-H₂L_d. Two series of Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with the four ligands were also prepared. The ligands and their metal complexes were characterized by chemical analyses, IR, Far-IR, electronic, ESR and mass spectra as well as magnetic measurements and X-ray diffraction patterns.

Different products for Ni(II) and Cu(II) were obtained in similar reactions with the same metal salt, depending on the nature of the ligand. Different geometries were also obtained depending on the counter anion of metal salt. Thus, violet square-planar Cu(II) complexes were obtained with Cu(OAc)₂. H₂O and green octahedral ones with CuCl₂. 2H₂O, except the reaction with ligand H₂L_d which gave only an octahedral product whether the anion was acetate, chloride or perchlorate. Electronic and ESR spectra were used to differentiate between the two geometries of the Cu(II) complexes. The green octahedral Cu(II) complexes undergo irreversible thermochromism to the violet square-planar complexes except the copper complex of the ligand H₂L_d which did not not show any color change and retained its octahedral geometry. Based on the magnetic moments and thermal analyses, only one Ni(II) complex of the Schiffbase ligand H₂L_c undergoes reversible thermochromism from green (octahedral) to red (squareplanar). The reverse change of the thermal product (red) to the parent complex (green) proceeded on exposure to atmospheric air for a few minutes. On the other hand, Ni(II) complexes of ligands H₂L_a and H₂L_b have stable square-planar geometry and all efforts to add other ligands such as H₂O or pyridine to these complexes failed to yield other products. The corresponding Cu(II) complexes were easily transformed to their octahedral geometry by adding H₂O or pyridine and heating.     

Planar Ni(II) 1,2-dithiolenes involving bidentate N -donor ligands

A series of planar Ni(II) dithiolenes derived from maleonitriledithiole (mnt), benzene-1,2-dithiole (bdt) and 1-toluene-3,4-dithiole (tdt) with bidentate N,N-ligands (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, nphen = 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline) of the [Ni(N,N)(dithiol)] type have been synthesized. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR and electronic spectroscopies, magnetochemical and conductivity measurements. Single crystal X-ray analysis of [Ni(phen)(bdt)] confirmed a planar geometry of NiN₂S₂. Possible practical applications such as use for vulcanization catalytic agents and for their anticholinesterase activity were evaluated.     

Experimental study and computer modeling of Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexation with ceftazidime

The protonation constants of the anion of the cephalosporin antibiotic ceftazidime Ctzd^– and formation constants of its complexes with Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺ have been determined by pH metric titration at 25°С and ionic strength 0.1 (KNO₃): logβ(HCtzd) = 4.82 ± 0.04, logβ(H₂Ctzd⁺) = 7.62 ± 0.06, logβ(H₃Ctzd²⁺) = 9.23 ± 0.09, logβ(NiCtzd⁺) = 4.04 ± 0.03, logβ(Ni(Ctzd)₂) = 6.41 ± 0.06, and logβ(CuCtzd⁺) = 5.03 ± 0.06. The potentiometric method has failed to reveal the complexation of Ctzd^– with Co²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺. The composition of the [Ni(Ctzd)₂] and [CuCtzd]⁺ complexes has been confirmed by spectrophotometry. The computer models of the [NiCtzd]⁺ and [CuCtzd]⁺ complexes have been calculated by the DFT method with the use of the B3LYP hybrid functional and the LACV3P**++ basis set.     

Potentiometric study of Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexation with two high molecular weight poly(acrylic acids)

The copper (II) or nickel (II) complex formation with two poly(acrylic acids) of high molecular weight (Mw=2.5×10⁵ and 3×10⁶) was investigated in aqueous dilute solution (NaNO₃ 0.1 mol l⁻¹; 25°C). Potentiometric titrations were carried out, first to precise the acid-base properties of the two polymers, and secondly to determine the stability constants of the MA and MA₂ complex species formed. The Bjerrum's method, modified by Gregor et al. (J. Phys. Chem., 59 (1955) 34–39), for the study of polymeric acids was used. The results obtained showed that both polymers present very similar properties. As expected, copper (II) is more readily bound to poly(acrylic acids). CuA₂ was the predominant observed species; the global stability constant log β₁₀₂ was found to be close to 6.6. With nickel (II), none of the complex species MA or MA₂ becomes predominant (log β₁₀₂=5.5). Finally, the PAA complexes present a greater stability compared with that of monomeric analogs.     

Solvent extraction of Ni(II) from sulfate solutions with LIX 84I: flow-sheet for the separation of Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II).

This paper reports on solvent-extraction studies of Ni(II) from sulfate solutions with LIX 84I (2-hydroxy-5-nonylacetophenoneoxime) as the extractant. The extraction of metal depends on the equilibrium pH of the aqueous phase and the extractant concentration. The transfer of metal follows a cation exchange-type mechanism: Ni2+ + 2HA --> NiA2 + 2H+. Extraction varies with the nature of the diluents. Temperature has no effect on the extraction of metal. The extraction behavior of associated metals clearly demonstrates the application of LIX 84I as the extractant for the separation of Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). Based on the results, a flow sheet of the process was developed.     

Formation and dissociation kinetics of Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes with N2S2-macrocycles

The kinetics of the formation and dissociation of the Cu(2+) and Ni(2+) complexes with a series of N(2)S(2) macrocycles, in which the ring size and the geometry of the arrangement of the donor groups have been varied, have been measured at 25 [degree]C and I= 0.5 (KNO(3)). Both the deprotonated (L) and the monoprotonated (LH(+)) form of the ligands are reactive species in the formation step. In their deprotonated form, first bond formation, in some cases supported by an ICB effect, is rate determining, independently of the ring size. In the monoprotonated form, we find slower rates, due to the charge repulsion and/or conformation changes induced by hydrogen bonds. In contrast the mechanism of the dissociation is very dependent on the ring size. The complexes with the smaller rings react as flexible open-chain ligands directly with H(+). In contrast, the complexes with the larger rings react in a similar way as rigid ligands: first the metal amine bond slowly dissociates so that the free electron pair of the amine can take the "out conformation" and then it is protonated. The 14-membered macrocycle L(3) forms complexes in which the metal ions are ideally coordinated so that their dissociation becomes extremely slow.

The solvent extraction of Cu(II), Ni(II), and Co(II) with diacetyl-mono-(2-quinolylhydrazone)

Summary A semi-automatic microliter sample injector with an 8-way motor-driven rotary valve was constructed for a conventional pneumatic nebulizer. After a 40-l sample was injected into an injection tee with a micro-syringe, nebulization and flushing the sample pathway with water followed by argon were automatically executed. An automatic peak detector/integrator was employed in each channel of a three-channel spectrometer for simultaneous multielement analysis. The relative standard deviation of the peak height for 1g Zr/ml was 1.7% and measuring time of one sample was about 1 min. Detection limits were 2 to 6 times higher than those in continuous feeding.

Standardabweichung der Spitzenhöhe für 1g Zr/ml betrug 1,7%, die Zeit für die Messung einer Probe ungefähr eine Minute. Die Nachweisgrenzen sind 2- bis 6mal höher als bei kontinuierlicher Zugabe.

     

Inhibition of metal ion complexation by an N2O2-donor macrocycle by incorporation of an intramolecularly hydrogen-bonding pendant phenolic group

The synthesis and X-ray structure of a new pendant-arm derivative of a parent 14-membered N₂O₂-donor macrocycle bearing an N-substituted 6-methylene-2,4-dimethylphenol group is presented. A single crystal X-ray study shows a strong intramolecular hydrogen-bond between the pendant phenol proton and the tertiary nitrogen of the macrocyclic ring, which may inhibit its ability to bind with selected transition and post-transition metal ions.     

Coordination chemistry of some new Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) macroacyclic (N2O4) Schiff base complexes: X-ray crystal structure of Cu(II) complex

Six new Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) macroacyclic Schiff base complexes [M^II(H₂L)](ClO₄)₂ (L = L¹ and L²) (I–VI) were prepared by the reaction of two new N₂O₄ Schiff base ligands in equemolar ratios. The ligands H₂L¹ and H₂L² were synthesized by reaction of 2-[2-(2-formyl phenoxy)ethoxy]benzaldehyde (A¹) and/or 2-[2-(3-formylphenoxy)propoxy]benzaldehyde (A²) and ethanol amine and characterized with IR and ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. All complexes were characterized by microanalysis, IR and mass spectrometry, whereas complex I was also characterized by single crystal X-ray (CIF file CCDC no. 1020055). The X-ray structure of complex I revealed that all nitrogen and oxygen atoms of ligand (N₂O₄) have coordinated to the metal ion. However, Cu²⁺ ion is in six coordination environment that can bedescribed as a distorted octahedral geometry.

Synthesis and characterization of a cationic oxorhenium(V) complex containing the pentadentate N3O2-donor ligand bis ( N -methylsalicylideneiminopropyl)amine

The complex salt [ReO(bsa)]PF₆ (H₂bsa?=?bis(N-methylsalicylideneiminopropyl)amine) was prepared from the reaction of cis-[ReO₂I(PPh₃)₂] with H₂bsa in toluene. The dianionic pentadentate ligand bsa is coordinated to the ReO³⁺ moiety via one secondary amino and two imino nitrogens, and two anionic phenolate oxygens. The complex was characterized by spectroscopy and analytical data, and the structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.     

The solvent extraction of Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) with benzil mono(2-quinolyl)hydrazone

Benzil mono(2-quinolyl)hydrazone, BmQH, has been studied as an extracting agent for Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II). Though the uncomplexed ligand remains undissociated in the pH range 3.5-10, it can lose a proton on complexation with metals, owing to the electron-withdrawing effects of neighbouring groups. The dependence of degree of extraction on pH indicates that complexes of both Cu(2+) and Cu(OH)(+) are extracted. Cu(BmQH)(2) and Cu(OH)BmQH species are extracted into MIBK, and the Cu(OH)BmQH complex is extracted into benzene. In the vicinity of pH 5.5-6, extraction efficiencies greater than 95% can be achieved with both solvents. Both Ni(II) and Co(II) also show dependence of extraction on pH, but precipitation of both metals in the vicinity of pH 6 limits further studies.     

New Ni(II)Cu(II)Ni(II) trinuclear complexes with an 5=3/2 high-spin ground

Four new heterotrinuclear complexes have been synthesized and characterized, namely {[Ni(L)₂]₂[Cu(opba)]}(ClO₄)₂, where opba denotes o-phenylenebis(oxamato) and L stands for 1,10-phenanthroline(phen) (1), 5-nitro-l,10-phenanthroline(NO₂-phen) (2), 2,2′-bipyridyl(bpy) (S) and 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridyl(Me₂bpy) (4). The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of {[Ni(phen)₂]₂[Cu(opba)]}(ClO₄)₂3H₂O has been studied in the 4–300 K range, giving the exchange integral J—109 cm^?1. The HMT vs. T plot exhibits a minimum at about 100 K, characteristic of this kind of coupled polymetallic complex with an irregular spin-state structure.
