Extractive spectrophotometry of the molybdenum (III) 1,10-phenanthroline thiocyanate and 2,2'-bipyridyl thiocyanate complexes

New extraction spectrophotometric methods for the determination of small amounts of molybdenum have been developed, using thiocyanate and 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2'-bipyridyl as reagents in the presence of chlorostannous acid. Extracts of the ternary complexes of tervalent molybdenum in 1,2-dichloroethane obey Beer's law in the range 1-10 mug/ml at 525 nm. A 10-fold excess of iron and vanadium and 100-fold excess of tungsten, phosphorus and silicate do not interfere.     

Perylene derivatives formation in reaction of 3-bromobenzanthrone and 4-bromonaphthalic acid derivatives with a reduction system NiCl2-2,2′bipyridyl (or 1,10-phenathroline)-Zn

The reaction of 3-bromobenzanthrone and 4-bromonaphthalic acid derivatives with a reduction system NiCl₂-2,2′bipyridyl (or l,10-phenathroline)-Zn gives rise to compounds containing perylene fragment. Under similar conditions was established a possibility to transform substituted l.l′-binaphthyls into the corresponding perylene derivatives. The study was carried out under financial support of the State Research Center “NIOPIK” (grant no.528/93-1679).     

Coordination of 2,2'-bipyridyl and 1,10-phenanthroline to yttrium and lanthanum complexes based on a scorpionate ligand

Reaction of yttrium and lanthanum trichloride with 1 equiv of sodium or potassium hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate and 1 equiv of 2,2'-bipyridine gives good yields of the complexes [MCl(2)(Tp(Me2))(C(10)H(8)N(2))] (M = Y (1), La (2)). The analogous compounds with 1,10-phenanthroline, [MCl(2)(Tp(Me2))(C(12)H(8)N(2))] (M = Y (3), La (4)), have been obtained by a similar procedure. The solid-state structures of 2-4 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and revealed that the compounds are all seven-coordinate with capped octahedral geometry. In contrast, reaction of yttrium trichloride with 1 equiv of sodium hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate in the presence of 1 equiv of neocuproine affords [YCl(3)(Tp(Me2))][Na(neoc)(3))] (5). Compounds 1 and 2 provide an entry for the synthesis of complexes containing the bipyridyl ligand in a radical anionic form or in a dianionic form. Reaction of 1 and 2 with an excess of sodium amalgam gives [Y(Tp(Me2))(bipy)(THF)(2)] (6) and [La(Tp(Me2))(2)(bipy)] (7), respectively. The structures of both compounds have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Compound 7 can be oxidized with iodine to give [La(Tp(Me2))(2)(bipy)]I (8).     

Displacement reactions of 2-chloro- and 2,9-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline: synthesis of a sulfur-bridged bis-1,10-phenanthroline macrocycle and a 2,2′-amino-substituted-bis-1,10-phenanthroline

The synthesis and structural assignments of 9-chloro-1,1-phenanthroline-2(1H)-thione and 1,10-dihydro-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dithione have been accomplished. The sulfur-bridged bis-1,10-phenanthroline macrocycle was readily prepared by heating the thione or equimolar amounts of the dithione and 2,9-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline in diphenyl ether. Displacements of 2-chloro- or 2,9-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline with N,N-dimethylethylenediamine afforded the corresponding amine and diamino analogues. An amino-substituted-2,2′-bis-1,10-phenanthroline has been prepared.     

Cu(I) complexes of 3,3'-polymethylene bridged derivatives of 2,2'-bi-1,10-phenanthroline

A series of 3,3'-polymethylene-2,2'-bi-1,10-phenanthrolines coordinate with Cu(I) to form dinuclear complexes [(CuL)(2)](2+). As the 3,3'-bridge is lengthened from two to four carbons, the ligand becomes more twisted about the 2,2'-bond, favoring dinuclear coordination. The distance between the two copper atoms varies from 2.92 A for the dimethylene-bridged system to 3.59 A for the tetramethylene bridge. Favorable pi-stacking interactions occur between opposing ligands and promote complex formation. Competition experiments indicate that self-recognition is important and only homoleptic complexes are observed. Under equilibrium conditions, formation of the tetramethylene-bridged complex appears to be the most favored while the dimethylene-bridged system is least favored. The intensity of the long wavelength metal-ligand charge-transfer absorption band decreases as the 3,3'-bridge is shortened. Interaction between the two copper centers is evidenced by a splitting of the oxidation wave, and this splitting increases as the Cu-Cu distance is decreased.     

Mixed ligand complexes involving ligands of biological importance [Cu(II)-1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2′-bipyridyl-α-amino acids]

The formation of mixed ligand complexes of Cu(II) with 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2-bipyridyl in presence of an -amino acid (glycine, alanine, phenylalanine or norleucine) have been studied by the pH-metric method. The pH-titrations of the reaction mixtures in equimolar concentrations have shown the simultaneous addition of the ligands resulting 111 ternary complex formation. The equilibrium and formation constants of the resulting ternary complexes have been calculated (30±1 °C; =0.1 KNO₃). The order of stability in terms of the secondary ligands has been found to be:Phe > Ala > Gly > Norleu.

Equilibria in complexes ofN-heterocyclic molecules,Part XV+. Intermediates in the reaction of cyanide with transition metal tris complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline, 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridyl

Summary The Ru(phen)₃(CN)₂ · 6 H₂O, Ru(bipy)₃(CN)₂ · 6H₂O, Fe(phen)₃(CN)₂ · H₂O and Ru(5-NO₂P)₃(CN)₂ · 2 H₂O compounds have been isolated during the reaction of the parent cations with aqueous cyanide solutions. It is evident, that in each case, attack at the ligand has taken placevia the cyanide nucleophile, though the equilibrium constant for the formation of the Reissert-type species are widely different. The implications of the findings with respect to the known reaction kinetics of the parent ions in aqueous cyanide solution are discussed.Part 14: R.D. Gillard and P.A. Williams,Transition Met.

Copper(II) Complexes with 2,2′-Dipyridyl or 1,10-Phenanthroline and Dicarboxylic Acids

Mixed complexes of the copper(II) ion with 2,2′-dipyridyl or 1,10-phenanthroline and some aromatic, aliphatic and cycloalkane-1,1-dicarboxylic acids have been prepared and characterized. Infrared and electronic spectra are also reported and discussed. On the basis of spectral data two possible stereochemistries were suggested for the prepared complexes. The dependence of the electronic spectra of the complexes in aqueous and methanolic solutions on the addition of some high strength donor ligands has been also studied.     

Competitive complexation of gaseous Mn(II) by 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,2'-bipyridine, and 4,5-diazafluorene

Complexes of Mn(II) with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) are investigated by means of electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry. Under the conditions used, [MnL(n)]2+ with n = 2 and 3, [MnL(n)Cl]+ with n = 0-2, and [Mn2L(n)Cl3]+ with n = 2 and 3 are produced (where L = phen or bipy). The collision-induced dissociation (CID) spectra of the mass-selected ions show various dissociation pathways, most notable among them is the reduction of the ligated Mn(II) to Mn(I) by intracomplex electron transfer. CID experiments of mixed-ligand complexes formed upon ESI from solutions which contain both phen and bipy exhibit preferential eliminations of bipy, indicating that bipy is a significantly weaker ligand for Mn(II) than phen. This effect is mainly attributed to the flexibility of the bipy ligand concomitant with thermodynamic control in ion dissociation. To support this hypothesis, mixed complexes with some methylated derivatives as well as those containing 4,5-diazafluorene (daf) are examined also. Interestingly, the differences between the ligands diminish in charge-separation reactions of dicationic Mn(II) complexes, due to the joined operation of thermodynamic as well as kinetic effects. In addition, the complexes [Mn(bipy)]+, [Mn(phen)]+, [Mn(bipy)]2+, [Mn(phen)]2+, and [Mn(bipy)(phen)]2+ are computed using the mPW1PW91 hybrid density functional along with the Stuttgart-Cologne-type pseudopotential and basis-set suite, and relative energies for charge-separation reactions and losses of neutral ligands are evaluated.

Studies on mixed ligand complexes involving ligands of biological importance [Ni(II), Zn(II) or Cd(II)-1,10-phenanthroline — or 2,2′-bipyridyl-histidine]

The formation of mixed ligand complexes of the title metal ions with 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) or 2,2-bipyridyl (Bipy) in presence of histidine (His) has been studied pH-metrically. The stepwise formation of 111 mixed ligand complexes has been inferred from the potentiometric titration curves. Initially, a 11 metal—Phen or—Bipy complex is formed in the lower buffer region and then the addition ofHis takes place resulting in 111 ternary complex formation. The formation constants (K _MAL ) of the resulting mixed ligand complexes have been calculated at 30±1°C (=0.1 KNO₃) and the values have been found to be higher than the formation constants of 12 and lower than those of 11 metal—His complexes. The order of stability in terms of metal ions follows the order, Ni(II)>Zn(II)>Cd(II).With 2 Figures     

2,9-Di-(2'-pyridyl)-1,10-phenanthroline: a tetradentate ligand for Ru(II)

The tetradentate ligand 2,9-di-(2'-pyridyl)-1,10-phenanthroline is synthesized in 62% yield by the Stille coupling of 2,9-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline and 2-(tri-n-butylstannyl)pyridine. Treatment of this ligand with RuCl3.3H2O and a 4-substituted pyridine results in the formation of a complex in which the tetradentate ligand occupies the equatorial plane and two pyridines are bound axially. The interior N-Ru-N angles vary from 76.1 degrees to 125.6 degrees , showing considerable distortion from the 90 degrees ideal. The lowest energy electronic transition is sensitive to the electronegativity of the 4-substituent on the axial pyridines, varying from 516 nm for the CF3 group to 580 nm for the NMe2. The oxidation potentials mirror this trend, spanning a range of 1.36-1.03 V, while the reduction potentials show less variation (-0.97 to -1.08 V). The complexes are nonemissive, presumably due to competitive nonradiative processes caused by distortion of the system.     

Characterization and biological activities of two copper(II) complexes with diethylenetriamine and 2,2'-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline as ligands

Two new mixed ligand copper(II) complexes with diethylenetriamine, 2,2'-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline have been synthesized. The crystal and molecular structures of [Cu(dien)(phen)](ClO(4))(2) and [Cu(dien)(bipy)](BF(4))(2) (dien=diethylenetriamine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline, bipy=2,2'-bipyridine) were determined by X-ray crystallography from single crystal data. These two complexes have similar structures. The EPR spectral data also suggest that these complexes have distorted square pyramidal geometry about copper(II). Anti-microbial and superoxide dismutase activities of these complexes have also been measured. They show the higher SOD activity than the corresponding simple Cu(II)-dien/Cu(II)-PMDT (PMDT=N,N,N',N',N'-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine) complexes because of a strong axial bond of one of the nitrogen atoms of the alpha-diimine. Both the complexes have been found to cleave plasmid DNA in the presence of co-reductants such as ascorbic acid and glutathione.
