Synthesis and structure of new copper(II) coordination compounds with 8-quinoline aldehyde semicarbazones and thiosemicarbazones

Copper(II) salts were reacted with various quinoline aldehyde chalcogensemicarbazones to yield compounds formulated as Cu(HL)X₂ · nH₂O (I: HL = quinoline aldehyde thiosemicarbazone (HL¹), X = ClO₄, n = 2; II: HL = quinoline aldehyde 4-C₂H₅-thiosemicarbazone (HL^1a), X = NO₃, n = 0; III: HL = quinoline aldehyde semicarbazone (HL²), X = ClO₄, n = 3 and IV: HL = quinoline aldehyde 4-Ph-semicarbazone (HL^2a), X = NO₃, n = 1). Regardless of the reagent ratio, the products were compounds having the metal: ligand ratio of 1: 1, where the organic ligand was coordinated tridentate in a molecular form. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction showed that, depending on the chalcogen atom in the organic ligand (S or O), the substituent in the 4th position (at the terminal nitrogen atom), and the specifics of the acido ligand, complexes I–IV had appreciably differing molecular structure organizations. The structures of I and III are formed by a 1D charged coordination polymer, ClO ₄ ^? anions, and water molecules and may be described by the formula [Cu(HL)(H₂O)(ClO₄)] _n (ClO₄) _n · nH₂O. Copper(II) coordination polyhedra in I and II are (4 + 2) and (4 + 1 + 1) tetragonal bipyramids, respectively. In II and IV, the structures are monomeric and can be described as [Cu(HL^1a)(NO₃)₂] with the metal coordination polyhedron shaped as a (4 + 1) tetragonal pyramid in II and as [Cu(HL^2a)(H₂O)(NO₃)](NO₃) with the metal coordination polyhedron shaped as a (3 + 2) trigonal bipyramid in IV. The structure of II is built of molecular complexes, each comprising, apart from ligand HL^1a, two monodentate coordinated NO ₃ ^? groups. The oxygen atom of one anion together with the NNS donor atom set of ligand HL^1a form the base, and the oxygen atom of the other anion is in the apex of the coordination polyhedron. In IV, the structure is ionic and built of NO ₃ ^? anions and [Cu(HL^2a)(H₂O)(NO₃)]⁺ complex cations, where a cationic coordination polyhedron has a trigonal-bipyramidal configuration with organic ligand HL^2a positioned along the long edge. The bipyramidal base is made up by the oxygen atoms of the coordinated water molecule and monodentate nitrato group and the nitrogen atom N2 of the azomethyne group.     

Lanthanum(III) and praseodymium(III) complexes with isatin thiosemicarbazones

Ten new lanthanum(III) and praseodymium(III) complexes of the general formula Na[La(L)2H2O] (Ln=La(III) or Pr(III); LH2=thiosemicarbazones) derived from the condensation of isatin with 4-phenyl thiosemicarbazide, 4-(4-chlorophenyl) thiosemicarbazide, 4-(2-nitrophenyl) thiosemicarbazide, 4-(2-bromophenyl) thiosemicarbazide and 4-(2-methylphenyl) thiosemicarbazide, have been synthesized in methanol in presence of sodium hydroxide. The XRD spectra of the complexes were monitored to verify complex formation. The complexes have also been characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, electronic absorption and fluorescence, infrared, far infrared, 1H and 13C NMR spectral studies. Thermal studies of these complexes have been carried out in the temperature range 25-800 degrees C using TG, DTG and DTA techniques. All these complexes decompose gradually with the formation of Ln2O3 as the end product. The Judd-ofelt intensity parameter, oscillator strength, transition probability, stimulated emission cross section for different transitions of Pr3+ for 4-phenyl thiosemicarbazones have been calculated.     

Molecular modelling for coordination compounds: Cu(II)-amine complexes

The Ligand Field Molecular Mechanics (LFMM) method has been applied to 85 Cu(II)-amine complexes, eighteen of which were selected to form a training set. A single set of parameters yields Cu-N bond lengths for four-, five- and six-coordinate systems generally within 0.04 A of their X-ray crystallographic values. Larger deviations are indicative of counterion effects and/or crystallographic artefacts arising from Jahn-Teller averaging. The LFMM treatment is flexible and unbiased and for simple ligands, automatically gives planar CuN(4) and tetragonally elongated CuN(6) complexes. In agreement with experiment, square-pyramidal coordination is marginally favoured over trigonal bipyramidal coordination for CuN(5) species. However, if the ligand requirements dictate, the LFMM accommodates trigonal bipyramidal coordination for CuN(5) species, tetrahedral distortions of CuN(4) species and cis-elongated CuN(6) species.     

Polynuclear Cu(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II) coordination compounds with bis(pyrimidin-2-yl)amine and dicyanamide

In this study the synthesis, crystal structure and characterization of three new transition metal polynuclear compounds with formula [Cu(dipm)(μ-dca)₂]_n(H₂O) (1), [Ni(dipm)(μ-dca)₂]_n(C₂H₆O)_1/2 (2) and [Cd(dipm)(μ-dca)₂]_n (3) (in which dipm = bis(pyrimidin-2-yl)amine and dca = dicyanamide) are reported. The isostructural compounds 1 and 2 contain a double-bridging end-to-end dca unit connecting two metal ions and a single bridging end-to-end dca unit between subsequent metals. Compound 3 exhibits only single bridging end-to-end dca units, oriented in three directions, giving rise to a 3D framework.     

Hydroquinone-bridged dinuclear Cu(II) complexes and single-crystalline Cu(II) coordination polymers

Cationic dinuclear Cu(II) complexes 3 and 4 have been prepared using the novel hydroquinone-based imine chelators 2,5-((i)Pr(2)NCH(2)CH(2)N[double bond, length as m-dash]CH)(2)-1,4-(OH)(2)-C(6)H(2) (1) and 2,5-(pyCH(2)CH(2)N[double bond, length as m-dash]CH)(2)-1,4-(OH)(2)-C(6)H(2) (2), respectively (py = 2-pyridyl). X-Ray quality crystals of both complexes were grown from their DMF solutions. The sterically more encumbered compound crystallizes in the form of discrete dinuclear entities with Cu(II) centres in a distorted square-planar ligand environment (one coordination site is occupied by a DMF molecule). The pyridyl derivative 4 features dinuclear hydroquinone-bridged subunits similar to 3. However, the Cu(II) ions are now six-coordinate with two DMF molecules at an axial and an equatorial position of a Jahn-Teller-distorted octahedron. Moreover, the dinuclear subunits are no longer isolated but linked with each other via bridging hydroquinone oxygen atoms which occupy the second apical position of each octahedron. The structure suggests that the magnetic properties of the resulting coordination polymer of 4 could be described by a model valid for dimerized spin chains. As a result of this analysis the antiferromagnetic coupling constants J(1)/k(B) = 9.9 K (intradimer) and J(2)/k(B) = 0.9 K (interdimer) are obtained. Both in 3 and in 4, the hydroquinone --> semiquinone transition of the central bridging unit (E degrees ' = + 0.57 V, 3; E degrees ' = + 0.51 V, 4; DMF; vs. SCE) displays features of chemical reversibility. In the case of , reduction of Cu(II) centres requires a peak potential of E(p) = - 0.42 V.     

Crystal structures of 3/4-pyridyl-based thiosemicarbazones and related Cu and Ni coordination compounds

In this investigation, the crystal structures of the thio-ligands 3-formylpyridine 4-phenylthiosemicarbazone (C₁₃H₁₂N₄S, 1 ) and 4-benzoylpyridine 4-ethylthiosemicarbazone (C₁₅H₁₆N₄S, 2 ), and of two new coordination compounds, chlorido(3-formylpyridine 4-phenylthiosemicarbazone-κS)bis(triphenylphosphane-κP)copper(I) acetonitrile monosolvate, [CuCl(C₁₃H₁₂N₄S)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]·CH₃CN, 3 , and bis(3-formylpyridine 4-ethylthiosemicarbazonato-κ²N¹,S)nickel(II), [Ni(C₉H₁₁N₄S)₂], 4 , are reported. In complex 3 , the thio-ligand coordinates in a neutral form to the Cu atom through its S-donor atom, and in complex 4 , the anionic thio-ligand chelates to the Ni atom through N- and S-donor atoms. The geometry of complex 3 is distorted tetrahedral [bond angles 99.70 (5)–123.23 (5)°], with the P—Cu—P bond angle being the largest, while that of complex 4 is square planar, with trans-S—Ni—S and N—Ni—N bond angles of 180°.     

Exchange parameters of five-spin clusters of Cu(II) coordination compounds with imidazoline nitroxide radicals

The exchange Heisenberg interaction parameters have been determined from theoretical analysis of the temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility of coordination cluster compounds [Cu(hfacac)₂]₃(Li⁽ⁱ⁾)₂ (hfacac is hexafluoroacetylacetonate, L⁽ⁱ⁾ are 3-imidazoline nitroxides). Upon coordination of both N O oxygens and heterocycle N(3) atoms by Cu²⁺ ions, the interactions are ferromagnetic in nature and have the same order of magnitude. The minor intercluster interactions are antiferromagnetic.Institute of Chemical Kinetics and Combustion, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences. International Tomography Center.

Copper(II) coordination compounds with ferulic acid

The first two molecular structures of the ferulic acid (3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid, C₁₀H₁₀O₄) coordination compounds are presented, namely, [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄(CH₃CN)₂] 1 and [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄(C₆H₆N₂O)₂]·4CH₃CN (C₆H₆N₂O = nicotinamide) 2. Both compounds were synthesised from the starting mixture of Cu₂O and CuCl upon copper oxidation in the acetonitrile solution. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 and 2 reveals the binuclear structure of the ‘paddle–wheel’ type for both complexes. 1 and 2 are unstable outside mother liquid due to loosely bound acetonitrile molecules. The final products of decomposition are [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄] 1a and [Cu₂(C₁₀H₉O₄)₄(C₆H₆N₂O)₂] 2a, which were characterized by several physico-chemical methods. The triplet X-band EPR spectra of 1a and 2a, showing signals B_Z1  15 mT, B₂  460 mT and B_Z2  580 mT, are in agreement with the expected data for the binuclear tetracarboxylate units, found in the structures of the parent complexes 1 and 2. Together with the room temperature magnetic susceptibility data, μ_eff/B.M. 1.40 (1a), 1.48 (2a), the EPR spectra analysis confirm the antiferromagnetic interaction in 1a and 2a. This is suggesting preservation and stability of the paddle–wheel structures in 1a and 2a.     

1D coordination polymers of Cu(II) and Cu(II) dimers with a dicyanomethanide ligand

Several new 1D coordination polymers have been synthesised using the anionic ligand carbamoyldicyanomethanide, C(CN)₂(CONH₂)⁻ (cdm). The polymeric complexes [Cu(cdm)₂(py)₂]·2MeOH (1), [Cu(cdm)₂(4-Etpy)₂]·2MeOH (2), [Cu(cdm)₂(3,5-Me₂pzH)₂]·2MeOH (3) and [Cu(cdm)₂(3-HOCH₂py)₂]·2MeOH (4) (py = pyridine; 3,5-Me₂pzH = 3,5-dimethylpyrazole) contain Cu(II) atoms bridged by μ₂-(N,N′) cdm ligands between equatorial and axial coordination sites. The use of monodentate co-ligands brings about polymeric products, in contrast to the use previously of chelating co-ligands which facilitate the formation of discrete products. These 1D polymeric complexes are connected by hydrogen bonding between the amide functionalities and the lattice solvent. In the structures of 3 and 4 the neutral ligands also contain hydrogen bond donor groups that supplement the amide ring motif. Two other complexes have been obtained that are polymeric chains of alkoxide-bridged Cu(II) dimers. The complexes [Cu(cdm)(MeO)(2-amp)] (5) and [Cu(cdm)(dmap)] (6) (2-amp = 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine and dmap = dimethylaminopropoxide) are remarkably similar despite the different ligands that they contain. Bridging between dimers is via μ₂-(N,O) cdm ligands, consequently altering the nature of the hydrogen bonding between adjacent chains compared to the simple polymeric species 1–3.

The ligands are bonded to the metal ion via one nitrogen atom from the pyrimidine heterocyclic ring and one from the guanidine group.

Synthesis and thermal study of rhenium(V) coordination compounds with pyroracemic acid and phenylglyoxylic acid thiosemicarbazones

Rhenium(V) coordination compounds with pyroracemic acid and phenylglyoxylic acid thiosemicarbazones were synthesized for various metal-to-ligand ratios in 1–7 M hydrohalic acids. The composition and structure of the complexes were characterized using a set of physicochemical methods. The thermal stability of rhenium(V) complexes with pyroracemic acid and phenylglyoxylic acid thiosemicarbazones and rhenium(V) solvato complexes with pyroracemic acid thiosemicarbazone was studied thermogravimetrically. The thermolysis mechanism for the complexes was determined as follows: elimination of outer-sphere water, decarboxylation, and dehalogenation.     

Synthesis and spectral feature of benzophenone-substituted thiosemicarbazones and their Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes

The ligational behavior of 2-hydroxybenzophenone and 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone N-substituted thiosemicarbazones towards Ni(II) and Cu(II) ions has been investigated. The isolated complexes were identified by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic moment, IR, UV-vis and ESR spectral studies. The IR spectra indicated that the investigated thiosemicarbazones lost the N(2) proton or the N(2) and OH protons and act as mononegative or binegative tridentate ligands. The ligands containing methoxy group facilitate the deprotonation of OH by resonance more than the SH. Most of the Ni(II) complexes measured subnormal magnetic moments due to square-planar+tetrahedral configuration and supported by the electronic spectra. The percentage of square-planar to tetrahedral was calculated and found in agreement with the ligand splitting energy (10Dq). Also, Cu(II) complexes measured subnormal values due to the interaction between copper centers; the lower the value the higher the interaction. It was found that the substitutent has a noticeable effect on the distortion of the complex. The ESR spectra of some solid Cu(II) complexes at room temperature exhibit g(parallel)>g( perpendicular)>2.0023 confirming a square-planar structure.     

Malonato-bridged hexamethylenetetramine coordination polymers containing Mn(II) and Cu(II)

Two malonato-bridged hexamethylenetetramine coordination polymers, M₂(hmt)(H₂O)₂(mal)₂ [hmt?=?hexamethylenetetramine, mal?=?malonate(2-), M?=?Mn (1), Cu (2)] were prepared and structurally characterized. The isostructural complexes are orthorhombic, space group Imm2, with a?=?7.104(1), b?=?15.982(3), c?=?7.702(1)?Å, Z?=?2, D _calc?=?1.862?g?cm^?3(1) and a?=?6.962(3), b?=?15.500(7), c?=?7.627(3)?Å, Z?=?2, D _calc?=?2.047?g?cm^?3for 2. The transition metals are octahedrally coordinated by one nitrogen atom of an hmt ligand and five oxygen atoms of a water molecule and three malonate anions. The latter coordinate in chelating/bis-monodentate mode to give 2D layers with a (4,?4) topology, and which are pillared by bridging bidentate hmt ligands to generate an open 3D framework with channels extending in the [001] direction. Over the temperature range 5–300?K, 2 behaves paramagnetically, following the Curie–Weiss law χ_m(T???θ)?=?4.521(6)?cm³mol^?1K with a Weiss constant θ?=??4.8(2)?K.     

Varieties in structures of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) coordination compounds based on dimethyl pyridin-2-ylcarbamoylphosphoramidate

A series of new 3d metal complexes based on dimethyl pyridin-2-ylcarbamoylphosphoramidate (HL) was synthesized. The compounds with general formula M(HL)₂Cl₂·nH₂O and M(L)₂·nH₂O (M=Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺) were characterized by means of single-crystal X-ray analysis and IR spectroscopy. The organic ligands in all complexes are coordinated via oxygen atom of the carbonyl group and nitrogen atom of the heterocycle. The coordination environment of the central atoms is a distorted octahedron. The axial positions in the Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes with deprotonated ligands are occupied by water molecules. The Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes with phosphoryl ligands in a neutral form have different ligands in the axial positions: in the Co(II) complex, the positions are occupied by two water molecules, whereas in the Cu(II) complex, the positions are occupied by two chlorine anions. The structure of HL was experimentally and theoretically obtained by utilizing single-crystal X-ray analysis and DFT calculations. The computationally optimized geometric parameters for HL show a good agreement with the experimental results.     

Electronic structure and coordination to DNA fragments for coordination compounds of Cu(II) with amino-acids of composition CuA′A″

The MWH method has been used in calculations on the electronic structures of compounds of copper(II) with -amino-acids CuGLY(L-Ser), Cu(L-Alan)(L-Ser), CuGly₂·H₂O, as well as for the free amino-acids: alanine, glycine, and serine. The proper energies and eigenvectors have been derived together with the charges on the atoms, which indicate the mode of coordination in these systems with DNA fragments involving the formation of sandwich complexes, and this provides a qualitative explanation of the differences in antitumor activity between these compounds.Translated, from Teoreticheskaya i'Éksperimental'naya; Khimiya, No. 3, pp. 351–356, May–June, 1985.
