Kobalt(III)-Komplexe von N,N, N′, N′-Tetrakis-(β-aminoäthyl)-äthylendiamin (= «penten»)

Several salts containing the cation Co(penten)³⁺, in which the hexamin «penten» (formula: page 625) acts as a sexadentate ligand, have been synthesized and characterized. Its optical antipodes have been separated in some of the salts (Fig. 4), and the rate of racemization studied. In strongly alkaline solution one of the 5 chelate rings slowly opens and Co(penten)OH²⁺ is produced (Fig. 1), to which a first proton can be attached at the terminal NH₂-group (→ Co(Hpenten)OH³⁺), and a second which converts the hydroxo-complex into the aquo-complex (→ Co(Hpenten)OH⁴⁺). The equilibria between Co(penten)³⁺, Co(penten)OH²⁺, Co(Hpenten)OH³⁺ and Co-(Hpenten)OH₂⁴⁺ have been elucidated, and the kinetics of the ring opening and ring closing reactions have been studied. Ring opening and ring closure take place with retention of configuration. It proved impossible to open two of the chelate rings of Co(penten)³⁺. Cristalline salts with cations of the general formula Co(penten)X³?λ or Co (Hpeten)X^4?λ, with Xλ? ? OH?, H₂O, F?, Cl?, Br?, J?, SCN?, NO₂,? and CO₃²?, have been obtained and characterized (Fig. 1, 2, 7 and Table 1).     

Beiträge zur Komplexchemie der Phosphine und Phosphinoxide. XXIII. Schwermetallkomplexe des Tetramethyl-biphosphins

On the coordination chemistry of phosphines and phosphinoxides. XXIII. Heavy metal complexes of tetramethyl-biphosphine The reactions of tetramethyl-biphosphine with salts of 3d elements including Cd and Hg, too, in THF, benzene, acetonitrile and alcohols, respectively, results in forming complexes of differing compositions: (MⁿX_n)₂{(CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃}₂)₃? Mⁿ = Ti^III, V^III, Cr^III, Fe^II, Ni^II, Cu^I; MX₂{(CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂}₂? M = Co^II, Ni^II, Hg^II; MX₂ · (CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂? M = Fe^II, Ni^II, Zn, Cd, Hg^II; X = Cl, Br, J. The partly intensively coloured complexes have low solubilities; this item complicates the performing of structure determining methods. Partial informations about the structures of the complexes are to be gained by magnetic and spectrophotometric measurements and X-ray investigations. The tendency of (CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂ to form complexes with transition metals differs from that of other biphosphines. Splitting of the P? P bond due to metal salts does not occur. (CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂ acts as a monodentate or bidentate ligand, like other members of the R₂P? PR₂ series do too. The forming of ligand bridges seems to be favoured in comparison to the chelate function.

Bis[μ‐N,N′‐bis(quinolin‐8‐yl)pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxamido]dizinc(II) dichloromethane disolvate

The title compound, [Zn₂(C₂₅H₁₅N₅O₂)₂]·2CH₂Cl₂, is a dinuclear double‐helical complex which lies on a crystallographic twofold axis. In the complex, both ligands are partitioned into two tridentate domains which allow each ligand to bridge both metal centres. Each Zn^II atom is six‐coordinated in a distorted octahedral environment formed by two amide N atoms, two quinoline N atoms and two pyridine N atoms from two different ligand molecules, with the central pyridine ring, unusually, bridging two Zn^II atoms. The deprotonated ligand is not planar, the amide side chains being considerably twisted out from the plane of the central pyridine ring.     

Drei Heterocubanartige (MII4O4)‐Typ Verbindungen (M = FeII,CoII, NiII)

According to X‐ray diffraction data obtained by both, single crystals and powders, the Co^II and Ni^II compounds crystallize monoclinic with C2/c (Co^II₄Cl₄(OCH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₂OH)₄ ( 1 ): a = 2084.1(4), b = 919.0(2), c = 1754.0(4) pm, β = 124.3(1)°, Z = 4; Ni^II₄Cl₄(OCH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₂OH)₄ ( 2 ): a = 2055.2(4), b = 932.1(2), c = 1727.4(4) pm, β = 125.2(1)°, Z = 4), whereas Fe^II₄Cl₄(OCH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₂OH)₄ ( 3 ) crystallizes tetragonal with (a = 1251.4(2), c = 915.3(2) pm, Z = 2). All compounds exhibit analogous molecular structures which are built of a heterocubane‐type core consisting of four metal ions and four deprotonated oxygen atoms of four coordinated diethylene glycol molecules. Neutrality of charge is realized by additional coordination of four chloride anions. In addition to the structural characterization, the thermal and magnetical properties of the title compounds are investigated in detail.     

Heteroligand zinc(II) and copper(II) complexes with naphthylacetic acid and monoethanolamine: Syntheses and crystal structures

New heteroligand Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes with the α-naphthylacetic acid anion (NAA) and monoethanolamine (MEA), [M(NAA)₂(MEA)₂] (M = Cu²⁺, (I), Zn²⁺ (II)), are synthesized. The crystal structures of the obtained complexes are determined by X-ray diffraction analysis (CIF files CCDC 984097 (I) and 930946 (II)). The crystals are monoclinic, for I: a = 18.8140(9) Å, b = 4.82500(14) Å, c = 16.0360(7) Å, β = 115.135(6)°, V = 1317.87(11) ų, space group P2₁/c, Z = 2; for II: a = 32.9760(14) Å, b = 5.0911(3) Å, c = 15.7994(10) Å, β = 94.418(5)°, V = 2644.6(3) ų, space group C2/c, Z = 4. In the structure of complex I, the Cu²⁺ ion arranged in the symmetry center is coordinated at the vertices of the distorted octahedron by the oxygen atoms of two NAA molecules (Cu-O(2) 2.019(4) Å) and two MEA molecules. The latter is the bidentate-chelating ligand and coordinates the metal through the O and N atoms to form the five-membered metallocycle (Cu-O(3) 2.457(5), Cu-N(1) 1.986(5) Å). In complex II, the Zn atom (on axis 2) is coordinated at the vertices of the distorted tetrahedron by the oxygen atoms of two NAA molecules (Zn-O(2) 1.976(4) Å) and the nitrogen atoms of two MEA molecules (Zn-N 2.034(6) Å). The character of the interaction of coordinated NAA and MEA ligands and methods for packing complexes I and II are considered on the basis of the structural data.

Structural and Solution Studies of two Mercury(II) Complexes with [1,3‐Bis(2‐ethoxy)benzene]triazene

The reaction of [1,3‐bis(2‐ethoxy)benzene]triazene, [ HL ], with Hg(SCN)₂ and Hg(CH₃COO)₂, resulted in the formation of the complexes [Hg L (SCN)] ( 1 ) and [Hg L ₂] · CH₃OH ( 2 ). They were characterized by means of X‐ray crystallography, CHN analysis, FT‐IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The structure of compound 1 consists of two independent complexes in which the Hg^II atoms are stacked along the crystallographic a axis to form infinite chains. Each Hg^II atom is chelated by one L ligand and one SCN ligand, whereas in compound 2 , the Hg^II atom is surrounded by two L ligands. In addition, 1D chains formed by metal–π interactions are connected to each other by C–H ··· π stacking interactions in the structure of 1 , which results in a 2D architecture. An interesting feature of compound 2 is the presence of C–H ··· π edge‐to‐face interactions.     

XPS study of the electronic structure of heterometallic complexes [Fe2MO(O2CCH3)6(H2O)3] · 3H2O (M = Co,Ni)

Heterometallic compounds of general formula [Fe ₂ ^III M^IIO(O₂CR)₆(H₂O)₃] · 3H₂O (R = CH₃, M = Co, Ni; R = CCl₃, M = Co, Ni) have been studied by XPS. The compounds have been identified as high-spin complexes with metal atoms in oxidation states M(II) and M(III). Analysis of the XPS data revealed the tendency of the XPS pattern and magnetic parameters of molecules to change with a change in the electronic nature of metal atoms. The assignment is based on the degree of covalence of the M-O bond. In chloro-substituted heterocomplexes, electron density delocalization on the metal atoms with metal-to-ligand charge transfer through three bonds (M-O-C-C) is observed. The substitution in terminal groups leads to the change in the electron density distribution between the carboxylate and terminal groups.     

Synthesis,Structures, and Properties of Crystalline Salts with Radical Anions of Metal‐Containing and Metal‐Free Phthalocyanines

Radical anion salts of metal‐containing and metal‐free phthalocyanines [MPc(3?)]^.?, where M=Cu^II, Ni^II, H₂, Sn^II, Pb^II, Ti^IVO, and V^IVO ( 1 – 10 ) with tetraalkylammonium cations have been obtained as single crystals by phthalocyanine reduction with sodium fluorenone ketyl. Their formation is accompanied by the Pc ligand reduction and affects the molecular structure of metal phthalocyanine radical anions as well as their optical and magnetic properties. Radical anions are characterized by the alternation of short and long C?N_imine bonds in the Pc ligand owing to the disruption of its aromaticity. Salts 1 – 10 show new bands at 833–1041 nm in the NIR range, whereas the Q‐ and Soret bands are blue‐shifted by 0.13–0.25 eV (38‐92 nm) and 0.04–0.07 eV (4–13 nm), respectively. Radical anions with Ni^II, Sn^II, Pb^II, and Ti^IVO have S=1/2 spin state, whereas [Cu^IIPc(3?)]^.? and [V^IVOPc(3?)]^.? containing paramagnetic Cu^II and V^IVO have two S=1/2 spins per radical anion. Central metal atoms strongly affect EPR spectra of phthalocyanine radical anions. Instead of narrow EPR signals characteristic of metal‐free phthalocyanine radical anions [H₂Pc(3?)]^.? (linewidth of 0.08–0.24 mT), broad EPR signals are manifested (linewidth of 2–70 mT) with g‐factors and linewidths that are strongly temperature‐dependent. Salt 11 containing the [Na^IPc(2?)]^? anions as well as previously studied [Fe^IPc(2?)]^? and [Co^IPc(2?)]^? anions that are formed without reduction of the Pc ligand do not show changes in molecular structure or optical and magnetic properties characteristic of [MPc(3?)]^.? in 1 – 10 .

Using the relative kinetic method, rate coefficients have been determined for the gas‐phase reactions of chlorine atoms with propane, n‐butane, and isobutane at total pressure of 100 Torr and the temperature range of 295–469 K. The Cl₂ photolysis (λ = 420 nm) was used to generate Cl atoms in the presence of ethane as the reference compound. The experiments have been carried out using GC product analysis and the following rate constant expressions (in cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1) have been derived: (7.4 ± 0.2) × 10^?11 exp [‐(70 ± 11)/ T], Cl + C₃H₈ → HCl + CH₃CH₂CH₂; (5.1 ± 0.5) × 10^?11 exp [(104 ± 32)/ T], Cl + C₃H₈ → HCl + CH₃CHCH₃; (7.3 ± 0.2) × 10^?11 exp[?(68 ± 10)/ T], Cl + n‐C₄H₁₀ → HCl + CH₃ CH₂CH₂CH₂; (9.9 ± 2.2) × 10^?11 exp[(106 ± 75)/ T], Cl + n‐C₄H₁₀ → HCl + CH₃CH₂CHCH₃; (13.0 ± 1.8) × 10^?11 exp[?(104 ± 50)/ T], Cl + i‐C₄H₁₀ → HCl + CH₃CHCH₃CH₂; (2.9 ± 0.5) × 10^?11 exp[(155 ± 58)/ T], Cl + i‐C₄H₁₀ → HCl + CH₃CCH₃CH₃ (all error bars are ± 2σ precision). These studies provide a set of reaction rate constants allowing to determine the contribution of competing hydrogen abstractions from primary, secondary, or tertiary carbon atom in alkane molecule. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
