Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Dinuclear Copper(II) Complex, [Cu2(phen)2(H2O)2(OH)2](HCO3)2 · 6 H2O with phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline

Dark blue plate‐like crystals of [Cu₂(phen)₂ · (H₂O)₂(OH)₂](HCO₃)₂ · 6 H₂O were obtained from a CH₃OH–H₂O solution containing CuCl₂, 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen), sebacic acid and Na₂CO₃. The crystal structure (triclinic, P 1 (no. 2), a = 8.118(1), b = 9.624(1), c = 10.536(1) Å, α = 81.35(1)°, β = 88.51(1)°, γ = 75.77(1)°, Z = 1, R = 0.0332, wR² = 0.0981 for 4163 observed reflections (F ≥ 2σ(F ) out of 4595 unique reflections) consists of divalent [Cu₂(phen)₂(H₂O)₂(OH)₂]²⁺ complex cations, anionic (HCO₃)₂^2– dimers and H₂O molecules. The divalent complex cations (d(Cu…Cu) = 2.905(1) Å) are centered at inversion centers. The Cu atoms are fivefold square‐pyramidally coordinated by two nitrogen and three oxygen atoms from one bidentate chelating phen ligand, two bridging hydroxide groups and one axial water molecule (d(Cu–N)phen = 2.021(2), 2.024(2) Å; d(Cu–O)_OH = 1.941(1), 1.949(1) Å; d(Cu–O)_H2O = 2.254(2) Å). The divalent complex cations are stacked to form 2 D layers parallel (001) with 1 D π‐π stacking interactions along [100] via the terminal phen rings. The dimeric (HCO₃)₂^2– anions and the hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules are sandwiched between the 2 D layers.     

Pentazol‐Derivate und daraus entstehende Azide: [O3S—p‐C6H4—N5]— und [O3S—p‐C6H4—N3]— als Kalium‐Kronenether‐Salze

Pentazole Derivates and Azides Formed from them: Potassium‐Crown‐Ether Salts of [O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₅]^— and [O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₃]^{— —}O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₂⁺ was reacted with sodium azide at —50 °C in methanol, yielding a mixture of 4‐pentazolylbenzenesulfonate and 4‐azidobenzenesulfonate (amount‐of‐substance ratio 27:73 according to NMR). By addition of KOH in methanol at —50 °C a mixture of the potassium salts K[O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₅] and K[O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₃] was precipitated (ratio 60:40). A solution of this mixture along with 18‐crown‐6 in tetrahydrofurane yielded the crystalline pentazole derivate [THF‐K‐18‐crown‐6][O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₅]·THF by addition of petrol ether at —70 °C. From the same solution upon evaporation and redissolution in THF/petrol ether the crystalline azide [THF‐K‐18‐crown‐6][O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₃]·THF was obtained. A solution of the latter in chloroform/toluene under air yielded [K‐18‐crown‐6][O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₃]·1/3H₂O. According to their X‐ray crystal structure determinations [THF‐K‐18‐crown‐6][O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₅]·THF and [THF‐K‐18‐crown‐6][O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₃]·THF have the same kind of crystal packing. Differences worth mentioning exist only for the atomic positions of the pentazole ring as compared to the azido group and for one THF molecule which is coordinated to the potassium ion; different orientations of the THF molecule take account for the different space requirements of the N₅ and the N₃ group. In [K‐18‐crown‐6][O₃S—p‐C₆H₄—N₃]·1/3H₂O there exists one unit consisting of one [K‐18‐crown‐6]⁺ and one [O₃S‐C₆H₄—N₃]^— ion and another unit consisting of two [O₃S‐C₆H₄—N₃]^— ions joined via two [K‐18‐crown‐6]⁺ ions and one water molecule. The rate constants for the decomposition [O₃S‐C₆H₄—N₅]^— → [O₃S‐C₆H₄—N₃]^— + N₂ in methanol were determined at 0 °C and —20 °C.     

Complexation of the 2, 4, 6‐Triallyloxy‐1, 3, 5‐triazine with Copper(I,II) Chlorides. Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [CuCl2·2C3N3(OC3H5)3], [Cu7Cl8·2C3N3(OC3H5)3], and [Cu8Cl8·2C3N3(OC3H5)3]·2C2H5OH

Interaction of copper(II) chloride with 2, 4, 6‐triallyloxy‐1, 3, 5‐triazine leads to formation of copper(II) complex [CuCl₂·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃] ( I ). Electrochemical reduction of I produces the mixed‐valence Cu^{I, II} π, σ‐complex of [Cu₇Cl₈·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃] ( II ). Final reduction produces [Cu₈Cl₈·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃]·2C₂H₅OH copper(I) π‐complex ( III ). Low‐temperature X‐ray structure investigation of all three compounds has been performed: I : space group P1¯, a = 8.9565(6), b = 9.0114(6), c = 9.7291(7) Å, α = 64.873(7), β = 80.661(6), γ = 89.131(6)°, V = 700.2(2) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0302 for 2893 reflections. II : space group P1¯, a = 11.698(2), b = 11.162(1), c = 8.106(1) Å, α = 93.635(9), β = 84.24(1), γ = 89.395(8)°, V = 962.0(5) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0465 for 6111 reflections. III : space group P1¯, a = 8.7853(9), b = 10.3602(9), c = 12.851(1) Å, α = 99.351(8), β = 105.516(9), γ = 89.395(8), V = 1111.4(4) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0454 for 4470 reflections. Structure of I contains isolated [CuCl₂·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃] units. The isolated fragment of I fulfils in the structure of II bridging function connecting two hexagonal prismatic‐like cores Cu₆Cl₆, whereas isolated Cu₆Cl₆(CuCl)₂ prismatic derivative appears in III . Coordination behaviour of the 2, 4, 6‐triallyloxy‐1, 3, 5‐triazine moiety is different in all the compounds. In I ligand moiety binds to the only copper(II) atom through the nitrogen atom of the triazine ring. In II ligand is coordinated to the Cu^II‐atom through the N atom and to two Cu^I ones through the two allylic groups. In III all allylic groups and nitrogen atom are coordinated by four metal centers. The presence of three allyl arms promotes an acting in II and III structures the bridging function of the ligand moiety. On the other hand, space separation of allyl groups enables a formation of large complicated inorganic clusters.     

1:1 Adducts of Copper(I) and Silver(I) Halides with the Olefinic Phosphane Tri(1‐cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl)phosphane. Molecular Structures of CuX[P(C7H7)3] (X = Cl,Br), AgCl[P(C7H7)3] and {Cu(μ3‐I)[P(C7H7)3]}4

A suspension of CuX (X = Cl, Br) or AgCl in organic solvents (such as CH₂Cl₂) reacts with P(C₇H₇)₃ ( 1 ) in a molar ratio 1:1 to give the mononuclear adducts CuX[P(C₇H₇)₃] (X = Cl ( 2a ), Br ( 2b )) and AgCl[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 3a ) which crystallize as isotypic compounds in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (Z = 4). In the crystal, two (of the three) cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl substituents are present in the boat conformation, thus establishing a loose long‐distance interaction between the central double bond and the metal atom. A distorted pseudo‐tetrahedral coordination sphere is assumed to exist around the metal atom, with large P‐M‐X angles of 165.49(8)° ( 2a ), 162.07(7)° ( 2b ) and 168.54(3)° ( 3a ), respectively. The tetrameric 1:1 adduct {Cu(μ₃‐I)[P(C₇H₇)₃]}₄( 2c ) which was obtained from CuI and 1 in boiling ethanol, has also been characterized by X‐ray crystallography (monoclinic space group P2(1)/n, Z = 4); it contains all 12 cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl substituents in the chair conformation. The NMR spectra (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) of the new complexes 2a‐c and 3a indicate non‐rigid structures in solution. At room temperature, the ³¹P NMR signal of 3a appears as a doublet with an averaged coupling constant, ¹J(Ag, P), of 700.1 Hz, whereas at —45 °C the two expected doublets are clearly discernible with coupling constants ¹J(¹⁰⁷Ag, ³¹P) = 671.0 Hz and ¹J(¹⁰⁹Ag, ³¹P) = 774.4 Hz, respectively.     

Zur Umsetzung von Kupfer(I)‐ und Kupfer(II)‐Salzen mit P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3 ‐ die Festkörperstrukturen von {[P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3]CuOClO3}ClO4, {[P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3]Cu}ClO4, [P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3]CuONO2 und [P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)2(C6H4CH2NMe2H+NO3‐‐2)]CuONO2

Reaction Behaviour of Copper(I) and Copper(II) Salts Towards P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ‐ the Solid‐State Structures of {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuOClO₃}ClO₄, {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Cu}ClO₄, [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuONO₂ and [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₂(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂H⁺NO₃^‐‐2)]CuONO₂ The reaction behaviour of P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ( 1 ) towards different copper(II) and copper(I) salts of the type CuX₂ ( 2a : X = BF₄, 2b : X = PF₆, 2c : X = ClO₄, 2d : X = NO₃, 2e : X = Cl, 2f : X = Br, 13 : X = O₂CMe) and CuX ( 5a : X = ClO₄, 5b : X = NO₃, 5c : X = Cl, 5d : X = Br) is discussed. Depending on X, the transition metal complexes [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃Cu]X₂ ( 3a : X = BF₄, 3b : X = PF₆), {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuX}X ( 4 : X = ClO₄, 11a : X = Cl, 11b : X = Br, 14 : X = O₂CMe), {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Cu}ClO₄ ( 6 ), [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuX ( 7a : X = Cl, 7b : X = Br, 10 : X = ONO₂), [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₂(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂H⁺NO₃^‐‐2)]CuONO₂ ( 9 ) and [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuCl}CuCl₂ ( 12 ) are accessible. While in 3a , 3b and 6 the phosphane 1 preferentially acts as tetrapodale ligand, in all other species only the phosphorus atom and two of the three C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂ side‐arms are datively‐bound to the appropriate copper ion. In solution a dynamic behaviour of the latter species is observed. Due to the coordination ability of X in 3a , 3b and 6 non‐coordinating anions X^‐ are present. However, in 4 one of the two perchlorate ions forms a dative oxygen‐copper bond and the second perchlorate ion acts as counter ion to {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuOClO₃}⁺. In 7 , 9 and 10 the fragments X (X = Cl, Br, ONO₂) form a σ‐bond with the copper(I) ion. The acetate moiety in 14 acts as chelating ligand as it could be shown by IR‐spectroscopic studies. All newly synthesised cationic and neutral copper(I) and copper(II) complexes are representing stable species. Redox processes are involved in the formation of 9 and 12 by reacting 1 with 2 . The solid‐state structures of 4 , 6 , 9 and 10 are reported. In the latter complexes the copper(II) ( 4 ) or copper(I) ion ( 6 , 9 , 10 ) possesses the coordination number 4. This is achieved by the formation of a phosphorus‐ and two nitrogen‐copper‐ ( 4 , 9 , 10 ) or three ( 6 ) nitrogen‐copper dative bonds and a coordinating ( 4 ) or σ‐binding ( 9 , 10 ) ligand X. In 6 all three nitrogen and the phosphorus atoms are coordinatively bound to copper, while X acts as non‐coordinating counter‐ion. Based on this, the respective copper ion occupies a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere. While in 4 and 10 a free, neutral Me₂NCH₂ side‐arm is present, which rapidly exchanges in solution with the coordinatively‐bound Me₂NCH₂ fragments, this unit is protonated in 10 . NO₃^‐ acts as counter ion to the CH₂NMe₂H⁺ moiety. In all structural characterized complexes 6‐membered boat‐like CuPNC₃ cycles are present.

Reaction of 1 with equimolar amounts of 2a affords the copper(I) chloride [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe2)₃]CuCl ( 3 ). With a further equivalent of 2a homobimetallic [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe2)₃]Cu₂Cl₂ ( 4 ) is formed, which also can be synthesized by the reaction of 1 with two equivalents of 2a. Complex 3 reacts with CuX (X = Br, I)to afford [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe2)₃]Cu₂ClX ( 5a : X = Br; 5b : X = I) in which mixed halides are present. The newly synthesized complexes 3‐5 were characterized by elemental analyses, by their IR‐, ¹H‐, ¹³C{¹H}‐ and ³¹P{¹H}‐NMR spectra as well as by mass spectrometrical studies. The solid‐state structures of complexes 3 and 4 are reported. Mononuclear 3 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with the cell parameters a = 14.285(2), b = 10.853(2), c = 17.425(2) Å , β = 103.310(10)?, V = 2628.9(7) Å ³ and Z = 4 with 4053 observed unique reflections; R₁ = 0.0314. The crystal structure of 3 consists of monomeric molecules with planar coordinated copper(I) centres (CuClNP). Homobimetallic 4 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 23.905(4), b = 10.874(3), c = 25.314(5), β = 99.130(10)?, V = 6497(2) /Aring; ³ and Z = 4 with 9021 observed unique reflections; R₁ = 0.0480. In 4 one of two copper(I) centres possesses a distorted trigonal‐pyramidal environment, while the other one is almost square‐pyramidal coordinated. The Cu₂Cl₂ segment resembles to a building block which is set up by a contact ion pair consisting of Cu⁺ and [CuCl₂]^‐ , respectively.

The crystal structures of the 1:1 compounds I and II consist of zig‐zag CuX single chains running parallel to the crystallographic a‐axis which are linked by the 2‐chloropyrazine spacer molecules to sheets parallel to (010). For the iodine compound III a one‐dimensional structure is found which consists of CuX double chains running parallel to the crystallographic a‐axis. The thermic properties of all compounds were investigated in different gas atmospheres using simultaneously differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetry (DTA‐TG) as well as temperature resolved X‐ray powder diffraction. On heating, the 1:1 compounds I and II decompose directly to the corresponding copper(I) Halides, whereas the thermal decomposition of III occcur via IV as an intermediate.

The Cu atoms are square‐pyramidally coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of one bidentate chelating phen ligand and three oxygen atoms from two bridging glutarate anions and one axial water molecule (d(Cu–N) = 2.018(2), 2.024(2) Å; basal d(Cu–O) = 1.949(2), 1.956(2) Å; axial d(Cu–O) = 2.382(2) Å). Through the π‐π stacking interactions extending in a direction, the complex molecules are interlinked into 2 D layers parallel to the ac plane. The resultant 2 D layers are held together by hydrogen bonds between water molecules and uncoordinated carboxyl oxygen atoms.

According to a single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction study, the novel heterobimetallic complex 3 comprises a nearly planar TiNi(S₂N₂)₂ arrangement. The Ti···Ni separation in 3 is 2.8348(5) Å, a value that is typical for bridged early‐late heterobimetallic complexes.

The Crystal Structures of Two No–Metal Tricyanomelaminates: Diammonium Tricyanomelaminate Dihydrate [NH4]2[C6N9H] · 2 H2O and Dimelaminium Tricyanomelaminate Melamine Dihydrate [C3N6H7]2[C6N9H] · C3N6H6 · 2 H2O

Diammonium tricyanomelaminate dihydrate [NH₄]₂[C₆N₉H] · 2 H₂O ( 1 ) and dimelaminium tricyanomelaminate melamine dihydrate [C₃N₆H₇]₂[C₆N₉H] · C₃N₆H₆ · 2 H₂O ( 2 ) were obtained by metathesis reactions from Na₃[C₆N₉] in aqueous solution and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and ¹⁵N solid‐state NMR spectroscopy ( 1 ). Both salts contain mono‐protonated tricyanomelaminate (TCM) anions and crystallize as dihydrates. Considering charge balance requirements, the crystal structure of 1 (C2/c, a = 3181.8(6) pm, b = 360.01(7) pm, c = 2190.4(4) pm, β = 112.39(3)°, V = 2319.9(8) 10⁶ · pm³) can best be described by assuming a random distribution of an ammonium ion – crystal water pair over two energetically similar sites. Apart from two melaminium cations, 2 (P2₁/c, a = 674.7(5) pm, b = 1123.6(5) pm, c = 3400.2(5) pm, β = 95.398(5), V = 2566(2) 10⁶ · pm³) contains one neutral melamine per formula unit acting as an additional “solvent” molecule and yielding a donor‐acceptor type of π–stacking interaction.     

Complexes of Group 12 Metal Dihalides with 2‐Acetylpyridine‐N‐oxide 4N‐methylthiosemicarbazone (H4MLO). The Crystal Structures and Organization of [Zn(H4MLO)X2] (X = Br,I)

Reaction of group 12 metal dihalides with 2‐acetylpyridine‐N‐oxide ⁴N‐methylthiosemicarbazone (H4MLO) in ethanol afforded compounds [M(H4MLO)X₂] (M = Zn^II, Cd^II, Hg^II; X = Cl, Br, I), the structures of which were characterized by elemental analysis and by IR and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. In addition, the complexes of ZnBr₂ and ZnI₂ were analysed structurally by X‐ray diffractometry. In [Zn(H4MLO)Br₂] the ligand is O,N,S‐tridentate and the metal is pentacoordinated, while in [Zn(H4MLO)I₂] the thiosemicarbazone is S,O‐bis‐monodentate and the Zn^II cation has a distorted tetrahedral coordination polyhedron. In assays of antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Paecilomyces variotii, only the mercury compounds showed any activity, and only [Hg(H4MLO)Cl₂] and [Hg(H4MLO)I₂] were competitive with nystatin against A. niger.

X‐ray structure determinations on single crystals of (Ph₄P)₂[Pt(N₃)₆] ( 1 ) (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.175(1), b = 10.516(1), c = 12.380(2) Å, α = 87.822(9), β = 73.822(9), γ = 67.987(8)°, Z = 1) and (Ph₄As)₂[Pt(N₃)Cl₅] · HCON(CH₃)₂ ( 2 ) (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.068(2), b = 11.001(2), c = 23.658(5) Å, α = 101.196(14), β = 93.977(15), γ = 101.484(13)°, Z = 2) have been performed. The bond lengths are Pt–N = 2.088 ( 1 ), 2.105 ( 2 ) and Pt–Cl = 2.318 Å ( 2 ). The approximate linear azido ligands with N^α–N^β–N^γ‐angles = 173.5–174.6° are bonded with Pt–N^α–N^β‐angles = 116.4–121.0°. In the vibrational spectra the PtCl stretching vibrations of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₃)Cl₅] are observed at 318–345, the PtN stretching modes of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₃)₆] at 401–428 and of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₃)Cl₅] at 408–413 cm^–1.

Based on the molecular parameters of the X‐ray determinations the vibrational spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The average valence force constants are f_d(PtCl) = 1.93, f_d(PtN^α) = 2.38 and f_d(N^αN^β, N^βN^γ) = 12.39 mdyn/Å.
