Charge-transfer complexes of phenylephrine with nitrobenzene derivatives

The molecular charge-transfer complexes of phenylephrine with picric acid and m-dinitrobenzene have been studied and investigated by IR, 1H NMR electronic spectra in organic solvents and buffer solutions, respectively. Simple and selective methods are proposed for the determination of phenylephrine hydrochloride in bulk form and in tablets. The two methods are based on the formation of charge-transfer complexes between drug base as a n-donor (D) and picric acid, m-dinitrobenzene as pi-acceptor (A). The products exhibit absorption maxima at 497 and 560 nm in acetonitrile for picric acid and m-dinitrobenzene, respectively. The coloured product exhibits an absorption maximum at 650 nm in dioxane. The sensitive kinetic methods for the determination phynylephrine hydrochloride are described. The method is based upon a kinetic investigation of the oxidation reaction of the drug with alkaline potassium permanganate at room temperature for a fixed time at 20 min.     

Charge-transfer complexes of indenophanes with π-acceptors

The charge-transfer (CT) spectra of the -complexes formed by a number of -acceptors with several indenophanes as well as indene as a model compound have been measured in methylene chloride at 20 °C. Association constants and transition energies of these complexes as well as ionization potentials of the -donors have been determined. The data obtained indicate the existence of transannular electronic interactions in the indenophane nucleus. Furthermore, the pseudo-para- andmeta[2.2]indenophane isomers (3 and4) show a large difference in their -base strength. A good linear relationship has been observed between the association constants and _max of the long wavelength CT bands for the -complexes of these -donors with both tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ). All CT complexes studied have a 1:1 stoichiometry.

Charge-transfer-Komplexe aus Indenophanen und -Akzeptoren

Zusammenfassung Die Charge-transfer-Spektren (CT-Spektren) von -Komplexen aus Indenophanen bzw. der Modellverbindung Inden und verschiedenen -Akzeptoren wurden in Methylenchlorid bei 20 °C bestimmt. Die Assoziationskonstanten und Übergangsenergien dieser Komplexe sowie die Ionisationspotentiale der -Donatoren wurden ermittelt. Die Daten sprechen für das Vorliegen transannularer elektronischer Wechselwirkungen im Indenophan-System. Die isomeren pseudo-para- und -meta[2.2]indenophane3 und4 unterscheiden sich in ihrer -Basizität deutlich. Es besteht eine gute lineare Korrelation zwischen den Assoziationskonstanten und _max der langwelligen CT-Banden der verschiedenen -Donatoren mit Tetracyanoethylen (TCNE) und 2,3-Dichlor-5,6-dicyano-p-benzochinon (DDQ). Alle untersuchten CT-Komplexe besitzen 1:1-Stöchiometrie.

     

Charge-transfer interaction of iodine with some polyamidoamines

The interaction of iodine as a sigma-acceptor with two derivatives of polyamidoamine dendrimers (donor), 1,8-naphthalimide polyamidoamine (PAM1) and 4-piperidino-1,8-naphthalimide polyamidoamine (PAM2) have been investigated spectrophotometrically at room temperature in chloroform. The results indicate the formation of two CT-complexes [(PAM1)I](+)I(3)(-) and [(PAM2)(2)I](+)I(3)(-) with molar ratios of 1:2 and 1:1, respectively. The formation of these two complexes are in good agreement with their elemental analysis, infrared measurements and photometric titration plots based on the characteristic absorption bands of I(3)(-) ion around 280 and 360 nm. Moreover the formation of triiodide ion, I(3)(-), in both of the two complexes was supported by measuring their spectra in the far-infrared region. Three characteristic bands are observed at 125, 110 and 75 cm(-1) due to nu(as)(I-I), nu(s)(I-I) and delta(I(3)(-)), respectively, with C(2v) symmetry.     

Charge-transfer complexes of meso-substituted porphines

Charge-transfer (CT) complexes of 5,10,15,20-tetramethyl-21H,23H-porphine [H₂(tmp)] and 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl-21H,23H-porphine [H₂(tpp)] have been prepared with TCNQ-type (TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane) acceptors. The complexes crystallize in a mixed-stacked structure. The electronic state of the complexes has been investigated by combining structural geometry information of the acceptors with vibrational spectroscopy data. The complexes were found to possess neutral ground states. The difference between the donor oxidation potential and the acceptor reduction potential (ΔE) also supports this designation of their electronic states. The CT absorption energy shows a linear correlation with ΔE, which is expected for CT complexes in their neutral ground states. The frontier orbitals of the porphyrin donor that participate in the CT interactions have been examined by calculating the overlap integral between the donor occupied molecular orbitals and acceptor LUMO in the complexes. In the H₂(tmp) and H₂(tpp) complexes, a_2u- and a_1u-type porphyrin HOMO and next-HOMO, respectively, are suggested to both be contributors to the establishment of π–π* CT interactions and formation of the complex.

Reactions of polyhalomethanes with olefins catalyzed by copper complexes with aromatic amino alcohols

Copper complexes with amino alcohols structurally similar to ephedrin (1-phenyl-3-(N-methylamino)propan-1-ol and 1-phenyl-2-(N-methylamino)ethanol) are catalytically very active in the free-radical addition of CCl₄ and CBr₄ to linear alk-1-enes. These amino alcohols themselves are initiators of radical addition reactions, and, in the reaction with CBr₄, they are more active than the metal complexes. In the presence of the amino alcohols, as distinct from classical radical initiators, the reaction is highly selective and affords an addition product. An analysis of kinetic equations and the data obtained for the reaction involving CHCl₃ suggest that the amino alcohols and the corresponding metal complexes are involved in different ways in the addition of CCl₄ and CBr₄ to linear alk-1-enes.

Charge-transfer intensity in complexes with symmetrically equivalent acceptors

Mulliken's model for the intensity of charge-transfer absorption bands in donor/acceptor complexes is extended to transition-metal compounds. Attention is focused on the analysis of systems containing a central metal ion and symmetrically equivalent π-acceptor ligands. The theory is illustrated for a one-donor/two-acceptor complex in D_2d point symmetry. Results are stated for symmetries of commonly occurring transition-metal compounds that display well-documented metal-to-ligand charge-transfer transitions.     

Charge-transfer complexes in homogeneous catalysis

It is shown that these complexes can be formed between the reactants in redox reactions. Oxidizing and reducing agents are classified on the basis of charge-transfer capacity, which is defined by the integral for the overlap between the filled orbital of the reductant and the free one of the oxidant. Unfilled diffuse d-orbitals most readily give such complexes. Homogeneous catalysis of a redox reaction involves charge transfer in either direction between the catalyst (which has partly filled d-orbitals) and one of the reagents. The transfer is very much dependent on the orientation, so activators play a large part.     

Charge-transfer complexes of phenothiazine derivatives with π-electron acceptors

Charge-transfer complexes (CTC) of some phenothiazine derivatives with -electron acceptors were obtained. They were used to determine the ionization potentials of the investigated donor compounds.

The experimental data obtained make it possible to draw conclusions relative to their configurations.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 497–501, April, 1973.     

Reactions of quinones with some amino alcohols,thiols and a UV-Vis study

Abstract

In the present study, the reactions of 2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone (DCNQ) with amino-1,2-propanediol and some thiols were investigated. Novel N-, N,S-, and S,O- substituted derivatives were obtained and the structures of all compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods (FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³ Baker, R. A.; Tatum, J. H.; Nemec, S. Antimicrobial Activity of Naphthoquinones from Fusaria. Mycopathologia 1990, 111, 9–15. DOI: 10.1007/BF02277294.[Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]C NMR, Mass spectroscopy) and microanalysis. The absorption behaviors of novel compounds were also investigated with UV-Vis spectroscopy in different solvents, such as ethanol, tetrahydrofuran and chloroform.     

Charge-transfer complexes of barbiturates and phenytoin

Simple and sensitive spectrophotometric methods are described, for the first time, for the determination of sodium salts of phenobarbital (1), thiopental (2), methohexital (3) and phenytoin (4). The methods are based on the reaction of these drugs as n-electron donors with the sigma-acceptor iodine and various pi-acceptors: 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane; 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone; 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone; 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-1,4-benzoquinone; 2,5-dichloro-3,6-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone; tetracyanoethylene and 2,4,7-trinitro-9-fluorenon. Depending on the solvent polarity, different coloured charge-transfer complexes and radicals were developed. Different variables and parameters affecting the reactions were studied and optimized. The formed complexes were examined by UV/VIS, infrared and (1)H-NMR. Due to the rapid development of colours at ambient temperature, the obtained results were used on thin layer chromatograms for the detection of the investigated compounds. Beer's plots were obeyed in a general concentration range of 1-400 mug ml(-1) for the investigated compounds with different acceptors. Interference from some co-formulated drugs was also studied. No interference was observed due to additives commonly present in the pharmaceutical preparations. The proposed methods could be applied successfully to the determination of the investigated compounds in pure and pharmaceutical dosage forms with good accuracy and precision, the recoveries ranged from 98.7+/-0.5 to 101.1+/-0.5%. The results were compared favourably with the official methods.
