Dinuclear complexes with a μ-cyano ligand. part IX. synthesis,characterization and magnetic studies of several derivatives of [Cr(CN)6]3− and [Cr(NO)(CN)5]3−

Summary Twelve dinuclear complexes, each with a bridging cyano group, of formulaecis-M[(aa)₂FCr-NC-Cr(CN)₅] andcis- M[(aa)₂FCr-NC-CrNO(CN)₄] (aa=ethylenediamine or 1,3-diaminopropane; M=K⁺, Na⁺ or NH ₄ ⁺ ) have been prepared by solid state heating of the corresponding doubly complexed saltstrans-M[CrF(H₂O)(aa)₂][Cr(CN)₆] andtrans-M [CrF(H₂O)(aa)₂][CrNO(CN)₅]. All have been characterized by chemical analysis, electronic and i.r. spectra and conductivity measurements.Magnetic susceptibilities down to liquid helium temperature have been determined forcis-K[(en)₂FCr-NC-Cr(CN)₅],cis-K[(tn)₂FCr-NC-Cr(CN)₅] andcis-K[(en)₂FCr-NC-CrNO-(CN)₄]. Slight antiferromagnetic interactions have been found in the first two compounds (J=–1.4 and –1.2 cm^–1, respectively). Thecis-K[(en)₂FCr-NC-CrNO(CN)₄] compound behaves as a Curie paramagnet and a structural model is proposed to explain this fact.     

Kinetic parameters and solid state mechanism of the thermal dehydration of trans[CrF(H2O)(aa′)2]K[Cr(CN)6]H2O And trans[CrF(H2O)(aa′)2]K[CrNO(CN)5]H2O (aa′=ethylenediamine or 1,3-diaminopropane)

The solid phase thermal deaquation of trans[CrF(H₂O)(aa′)₂]K[Cr(CN)₆]H₂O and trans[CrF(H₂O)(aa′)₂]K[CrNO(CN)₅]H₂O (aa′=ethylenediamine or 1,3-diaminopropane) has been investigated by means of TG measurements. The kinetic parameters (activation energy, E_a, activation entropy, ΔS^#, and frequency factor, k₀) have been determined by comparison of the isothermal and non-isothermal studies for all the principal g(α) expressions. The values found for the activation energy are low (between 80 and 110 kJ mole^?1, approximately) and permit the assignment of the deaquation-anation mechanism of the S_N1 type, involving square-pyramid activated complex and elimination of water as Frenkel defects.     

NMR spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic study of methylcobalt(III) compounds with saturated amine ligands

The (13)C chemical shifts of methylcobalt(III) compounds with saturated amine ligands in cis positions to the methyl group and a monodentate ligand, L = CN(-), NH(3), NO(2)(-), N(3)(-), H(2)O, or OH(-), in the trans position are reported. The amine ligands used, 1,2-ethanediamine (en), 1,3-propanediamine (tn), N,N'-bis(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine (2,3,2-tet), N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (3,2,3-tet), and 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (cyclam), all exert an apparent cis influence on the (13)C resonance signal of the coordinated methyl group. In the trans-[Co(en)(2)(CH(3))(L)](n+) series the (15)N resonance frequency of the coordinated en has also been measured. The influence of L on the en (15)N chemical shifts is reverse the influence on the methyl (13)C chemical shifts except in the case of L = NO(2)(-), which affects a further deshielding of the amine nitrogen nucleus. The methyl (1)J(CH) coupling constants in the trans-[Co(en)(2)(CH(3))(L)](n+) series range from 128.09 Hz (L = CN(-)) to 134.11 Hz (L = H(2)O). The crystal structures of trans-[Co(en)(2)(CH(3))(ClZnCl(3))], trans-[Co(3,2,3-tet)(CH(3))(N(3))]ClO(4), trans,trans-[(CH(3))(en)(2)Co(CN)Co(en)(2)(CH(3))](PF(6))(3)(CH(3)CN), and cis-[Co(en)(2)(CH(3))(NH(3))]ZnCl(4) were determined from low-temperature X-ray diffraction data.     

Thermal studies on the anation and decomposition of trans-fluoroaquobis(ethylenediamine) and trans-fluoroaquoabis(propylenediamine) dithionate

The anation and decomposition reaction of trans[CrF(H₂O)(aa′)₂]S₂O₆ [aa′ = ethylenediamine (en); 1,3-diaminepropane (tmd)] have been studied by means of ATD, TG and DSC techniques. The first and only perfectly defined step is the anation reaction forming the species cis[CrF(S₂O₆)(aa′)₂]. By means of DSC techniques, the enthalpies of reaction and the activation energies of both reactions have been estimated. The electronic spectra of the resultant products suggest cis configuration. A second step, preceding total decomposition of the complex, involves cis[CrF(S₂O₆)(aa′)₂] → cis[CrF(SO₄)(aa′)₂] + SO₂ which is contaminated by decomposition reactions.

A bimetallic cyano-bridged complex based on nickel(II) and pentacyanidonitrosylferrate(II) precursors: characterization, crystal structure, and magnetic properties

A heterobimetallic cyano-bridged 1D coordination polymer of the composition [Ni(baepn)(μ-NC)Fe(CN)₃(NO)(μ-CN)]_n·3H₂O has been synthesized by the reaction of nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate, baepn (baepn = N, N′-bis(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine), and sodium nitroprusside dihydrate in a methanol–water mixture. The complex was characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The crystal structure was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It reveals cyano-bridged heterometallic chains consisting of alternating arrays of Ni(II) and Fe(II) atoms, both being embedded in distorted octahedral environments. Low-temperature susceptibility measurements show the presence of weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between paramagnetic Ni(II) centers (J = −0.46 cm⁻¹) through long diamagnetic [Fe(CN)₅(NO)]²⁻ bridges. Spin state of the iron atom was established by ⁵⁷Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy.

[B(O–C6H4–CN)4]– based Silver and Copper Coordination Polymers

A series of new coordination polymers bearing the [B(O–C₆H₄–CN)₄]^– anion was synthesized. Two new, one dimensional coordination frameworks of the type M[B(O–C₆H₄–CN)₄] (M = Ag, Cu) were obtained by salt metathesis. The reactivity towards organic Lewis‐bases was studied. The reaction with bidentate ligands yielded two dimensional networks with the general formula [M(L)][B(O–C₆H₄–CN)₄] {L = 2,2′‐bipyridine, 4,4′‐bipyridine, 1,2‐bis(pyridyl)ethane, 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane}. The synthesis, properties and single crystal structure are reported.     

Mechanistic Insight into the Nitric Oxide Dioxygenation Reaction of Nonheme Iron(III)–Superoxo and Manganese(IV)–Peroxo Complexes

Reactions of nonheme Fe^III–superoxo and Mn^IV–peroxo complexes bearing a common tetraamido macrocyclic ligand (TAML), namely [(TAML)Fe^III(O₂)]^2? and [(TAML)Mn^IV(O₂)]^2?, with nitric oxide (NO) afford the Fe^III–NO₃ complex [(TAML)Fe^III(NO₃)]^2? and the Mn^V–oxo complex [(TAML)Mn^V(O)]^? plus NO₂^?, respectively. Mechanistic studies, including density functional theory (DFT) calculations, reveal that M^III–peroxynitrite (M=Fe and Mn) species, generated in the reactions of [(TAML)Fe^III(O₂)]^2? and [(TAML)Mn^IV(O₂)]^2? with NO, are converted into M^IV(O) and ^.NO₂ species through O?O bond homolysis of the peroxynitrite ligand. Then, a rebound of Fe^IV(O) with ^.NO₂ affords [(TAML)Fe^III(NO₃)]^2?, whereas electron transfer from Mn^IV(O) to ^.NO₂ yields [(TAML)Mn^V(O)]^? plus NO₂^?.

Thermally induced isomeric transformations ofbis-(diamine) complexes of nickel(II) nitrate in the solid phase

Summary Thermal reactions of [Ni(diamine)₂(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₂ and [Ni(diamine)₂(NO₃)₂] (where diamine=1,2-ethanediamine,N-methyl-1,2-ethanediamine,N-ethyl-1,2-ethanediamine, 1,3-propanediamine andN-methyl-1,3-propanediamine) have been investigated in the solid phase. The 1,2-ethanediamine andN-methyl-1,2-ethanediamine complexes undergo thermally induced endothermic irreversible isomeric transformations. In the 1,2-ethanediamine complex the transformation is thermochromic, whereas it is not for theN-methyl-1,2-ethanediamine complex. The transformations are explained in terms of the axial interaction of NO₃ ions with nickel as well as to ligand field weakening resulting from conformational changes of the individual diamine chelate rings.Supplememtary data available: X-ray powder diffraction data (Table3).     

Synthesis of an Iron(IV) Aqua–Oxido Complex Using Ozone as an Oxidant

The iron(IV) oxido complex [(tmc)Fe=O(OTf)]OTf with the macrocyclic ligand 1,4,8,11‐tetramethyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclo‐tetradecane (tmc) has been synthesized using ozone as an oxidant. By adding water to this compound the complex [(H₂O)(tmc)Fe=O)](OTf)₂ could be prepared. This complex is important in regard to a better understanding of the reactivity of Fe^IV oxido complexes. Mössbauer measurements using the solid compound showed an isomer shift of δ=0.19 mm s^?1 and a quadrupole splitting ΔE_Q=1.38 mm s^?1, confirming the high‐valent Fe^IV state. DFT calculations were performed and led to an assignment of triplet spin multiplicity. Crystallographic characterization of [(H₂O)(tmc)Fe=O)](OTf)₂ as well as of starting materials [(tmc)Fe(CH₃CN)](OTf)₂ and [(tmc)Fe(OTf)]OTf together with previous results strongly suggest that [(H₂O)(tmc)Fe=O)](OTf)₂ was formed similar to the oxido–hydroxido tautomerism analogous to heme systems.

ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF CYANO-BRIDGED DINUCLEAR IRON COMPLEXES

Abstract

A series of complexes of formula [(NC)₅Fe^II—NC—Fe^II(CN)₄L]^n?, with L = H₂O, pyridine, isonicotinamide and 4-cyanopyridine were prepared in aqueous solution by substitution of the corresponding [Fe^II(CN)₅L]^n? ions into [Fe^II(CN)₅H₂O]^3?. The mixed valent (II, III) and fully oxidized (III, III) complexes were also obtained. The (II, II) complexes were moderately stable toward dissociation into the mononuclear species, but the mixed-valent ions were properly characterized by UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy and electrochemistry. Distinctive intervalence (IV) bands were assigned in the NIR region, with the energy being dependent on the binding properties of L; the IV band energy also correlated with the redox potential at the [NC—Fe(CN)₄L] fragment. By application of the Hush model, a valence-trapped situation was found for the [(NC)₅Fe^III—NC—Fe^II(CN)₄L]^n? ions. The class II behavior shows, however, a value of H _ab, the electronic coupling factor, of ca. 1600cm^?1, indicating a moderate-to-strong communication between the metal centers.     

The HNO donor ability of hydroxamic acids upon oxidation with cyanoferrates(III)

The hydroxamic acids (RC(O)NHOH, HA) exhibit diverse biological activity, including hypotensive properties associated with formation of nitroxyl (HNO) or nitric oxide (NO). Oxidation of two HAs, benzohydroxamic and acetohydroxamic acids (BHA, AHA) by [Fe(CN)₅NH₃]^2? or [Fe(CN)₆]^3? was analyzed by spectroscopic, mass spectrometric techniques, and flow EPR measurements. Mixing BHA with both Fe(III) reactants at pH 11 allowed detecting the hydroxamate radical, (C₆H₅)C(O)NO˙^?, as a one-electron oxidation product, as well as N₂O as a final product. Successive UV–vis spectra of mixtures containing [Fe(CN)₅NH₃]^2? (though not [Fe(CN)₆]^3?) at pH 11 and 7 revealed an intermediate acylnitroso-complex, [Fe(CN)₅NOC(O)(C₆H₅)]^3? (λ_max, 465 nm, very stable at pH 7), formed through ligand interchange in the initially formed reduction product, [Fe(CN)₅NH₃]^3?, and characterized by FTIR spectra through the stretching vibrations ν_(CN), ν_(CO), and ν_(NO). Free acylnitroso derivatives, formed by alternative reaction paths of the hydroxamate radicals, hydrolyze forming RC(O)OH and HNO, postulated as precursor of N₂O. Minor quantities of NO are formed only with an excess of oxidant. The intermediacy of HNO was confirmed through its identification as [Fe(CN)₅(HNO)]^3? (λ_max, 445 nm) as a result of hydrolysis of [Fe(CN)₅(NOC(O)(C₆H₅)]^3? at pH 11. The results demonstrate that hydroxamic acids behave predominantly as HNO donors.
