NMR investigation of bis(2,3-alkanedione dioximato)-bis(pyridine)cobalt(III) iodide complexes: 1H and 13C NMR spectra and 13C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements

The complexes of trans-[Co(III)(R,CH₃-dioxH)₂(py)₂]I2 (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) were investigated in solution by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra and ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements. The ¹H and ¹³C-resonances of the R = C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) groups were shifted to higher field than those of the free ligands by the complexation; it was attributable to the ring current shielding due to the axial pyridine ligands of the complexes. ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation times were interpreted as due to movement of the axial pyridine ligands as if they twist around the CoN (pyridine nitrogen) bond axis and the above R groups were moving segmentally. These segmental movements allowed the R groups to approach closely toward the axial pyridine ring plane to experience the ring current shielding.     

Effects of chemical shift anisotropy and 14N coupling on the 1H and 195Pt nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of platinum complexes

Broadening of the ¹⁹⁵Pt satellites in the ¹H NMR spectrum of trans-Pt(ethene)(2-carboxy-pyridine)Cl₂ at high field arises from relaxation of ¹⁹⁵Pt via the chemical shift anisotropy mechanism. We also demonstrate that well-resolved ¹⁴N-¹⁹⁵Pt couplings can be observed in ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR spectra of Pt(II) and Pt(IV) amine complexes, including anti-tumour agents, at elevated temperature where scalar coupling contributions to ¹⁹⁵Pt relaxation are much reduced.     

Steric effects in 29Si and 13C NMR spectra of trimethylsilyl- and alkyl-substituted benzenes

²⁹Si and ¹³C NMR spectra of trimethylsilylbenzenes substituted at different positions by methyl and trimethylsilyl groups were investigated with special reference to steric interactions between the ortho-substituents. The steric effects, as measured by ¹³C and ²⁹Si chemical shifts, are generally smaller in trimethylsilyl- than in t-butyl-substituted compounds. Both nuclei follow the same general trends in the benzene derivatives.     

Synthesis, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopic studies of gold(I) complexes of imidazolidine-2-thione and its derivatives

The gold(I) complexes of imidazolidine-2-thione and its derivatives were synthesized and their ¹³C NMR and IR spectroscopic studies were carried out. When gold(III) was reacted with the ligands using a 1:4 metal to ligand ratio, gold(III) was reduced to gold(I), the bis complexes of the general formula AuL_nX (where n = 2) were formed. However, when gold(III) was reduced to gold(I) by a reducing agent followed by an addition of the ligand to an aqueous or methanolic solution of gold(I), only mono complexes of the type AuLX were obtained. The structures of the reported complexes are proposed on the basis of their spectroscopic measurements.

Calculation of the 13C magnetic shielding in cyclopentadienyl complexes by eliminating effects due to charge

A method for estimating the contributions of different factors to the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of a ligand has been proposed which is based on elimination of the charge effect and a determination of the combined effect of the remaining factors (the coordination effect). This enabled the authors to establish a relationship between the ¹³C NMR data and the chemical properties of cyclopentadienyl metal compounds.     

Dissociation of uranium(III) and uranium(IV) borohydrides in solution: 11B, 1H NMR study

Uranium(III) borohydride, which can be prepared in THF solution, and uranium(IV) borohydride are found to undergo dissociation to give cationic and anionic species:

these species are identified by their ¹H and ¹¹B NMR spectra. BH^?₄ is found to be in exchange between the three species in both cases.     

1H NMR study of isomerization in chlorotin(IV) ternary complexes of 8-quinolinol and 5,7-dichloro-8-quinolinol

A complete analysis of the temperature dependence (?30 to 52°C) of the ¹H NMR spectra in d-chloroform of the ternary complexes, bis-(8-quinolinato)tin(IV) dichloride and bis-(5,7-dichloro-8-quinolinato)tin(IV) dichloride has been performed. The intramolecular character of the exchange process has been established, and the spectra have been analyzed by the total lineshape method in terms of the interconversion of two isomers, the cis-cis-trans and the cis-trans-cis (with respect to Cl, N and O atoms), including the tin-proton couplings in the simulations. Arrhenius parameters of the process were E_a = 54 ± 1 and 52 + 1 kJ mol^?1, and log A = 11.8 ± 0.2 and 11.7 ± 0.3, respectively, for the two complexes. The similarity of the activation parameters obtained for both complexes indicates that the presence of bulky Cl atoms in the 8-quinolinol ring had no appreciable energetic influence on the isomerization process. Data were compared with those reported for other chlorinated hexacoordinated complexes, involving ligands other than the 8-quinolinol ring.

13C NMR study of dilute ternary solutions: Acetonitrile,silver nitrate and other electrolytes in water at 25°C

The ¹³C NMR chemical shifts have been measured for dilute aqueous solutions of acetonitrile in presence of various electrolytes including silver nitrate. The two formation constants of the silver ion/acetonitrile complexes have been calculated assuming an additive contribution of each possible complex configuration. Under these conditions the values obtained for the formation constants are very close to those deduced from vapour pressure or electromotive force techniques. The other systems studied are discussed in relation to the salting phenomenon in aqueous electrolyte solutions.     

Photosubstitution in some cyanide complexes of chromium(III)(1)

Photosubstitution by OH^? ligand was concluded from a photochemical study of the [Cr(CN)₆]^3? and [Cr(CN)₅OH]^3? complexes in alkaline medium. Photoaccelerated aquation was found to proceed in the case of aquocyanochromates(III): [Cr(CN)₅H₂O]^2? and [Cr(CN)₃(H₂O)₃].     

Complexes of Pt(II) and Pt(IV) with disubstituted purines

Mixed-ligand complexes of Pt(II) and Pt(IV) with 2,6-diaminopurine and 6-thioguanine were synthesized and characterised. The complexes were prepared in acidic and basic media. The binding of the ligands to the metal ion varies according to the pH of the medium. Thus, in the complexes of 6-thioguanine, the ligand acts as a monodentate ligand coordinating through the neutral C₆-SH group in the acidic medium and in the basic medium as a bidentate ligand binding to the metal ion through C₆S^? and N₇, forming a five-membered chelate ring. In an acidic medium 2,6-diaminopurine forms mononuclear complexes with Pt(II) and Pt(IV) binding through N₇. In a basic medium binuclear hydroxobridged complexes are formed with Pt(IV) and the ligand is monodentate, coordinating through N₇.

Two of them are present in the cis configuration while for all the others unambiguous trans configurations are observed.     

On the tri-n-octylammonium chloro complexes of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) in benzene solution

Extracts with tri-n-octylammonium chloro complexes of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) of various compositions, including the N-deuterated compounds, were prepared and investigated by IR spectroscopy and conductivity measurements.

The occurrence of the analogous 1:1-complex TOAH⁺ZnCl_3? could not be detected under the preparative conditions used.

17O and 183W NMR studies of the paratungstate anions in aqueous solutions

¹⁷O (40.7 MHz) and ¹⁸³W (12.5 MHz) NMR spectra of aqueous Na₁₀[H₂W₁₂O₄₂]·27H₂O (1), Na₆[W₇O₂₄]·14H₂O (2) and (NH₄)₆[Mo₇O₂₄]·nH₂O solutions, as well as of 2, 1 and 0.1 M Na₂WO₄ and 2 M Li₂WO₄ solutions acidified up to P = 0.5, 1 and 1.14 have been measured. The composition of the W₇O₂₄^6? anion remains unchanged (2), its structure being similar to that of Mo₇O₂₄^6?183W NMR spectrum shows three resonances with the chemical shifts + 269.2, ?98.8 and ?178.9 ppm relative to WO₄^2? and intensity ratio 1:4:2. “Paratungstate A” produced during polycondensation of WO₄^2? at P ? 1.17 is identical with heptatungstate W₇O₂₄^6?. The [H₂W₁₂O₄₂]^10?183W NMR spectrum in the acidified 2 M Li₂WO₄ solution has four resonances with the chemical shifts in the range - 105–145 ppm and intensity ratio 1:2:1:2. As suggested by NMR data, the H₂W₁₂O₄₂^10? ? W₇O₂₄^6? transformations occur, which depend upon concentration and temperature.     

195Pt NMR of organoplatinum compounds

The ¹⁹⁵Pt chemical shifts of several organoplatinum compounds in solution have been determined. The δ(¹⁹⁵Pt) values of the phosphine-Pt^II and -Pt⁰ compounds lie in separate ranges, and allow the metal-diene systems to be characterized either as metallacyclopentene or as η²-bonded diene. Although the two isomers of bis(η³-allyl)Pt (VIII) formally should be regarded as Pt^II compounds their ¹⁹⁵Pt shifts clearly lie in the region for Pt⁰ compounds. The large separation between the ¹⁹⁵Pt signals and the difference in ¹⁹⁵Pt-T₁ values for the two isomers of VIII are in accord with their having different geometries around the metal.
