Influence of solvent on ir spectra of aroyl(hydroxymethyl)trifluorosilanes

Conclusions Dipole-dipole interaction of the solvent with molecules of aroyl (hydroxymethyl) trifluorosilanes 4-XC₆H₄COOCH₂SiF₃ is responsible for changes in frequency of the stretching vibrations of groups included in a five-membered ring, containing an intramolecular coordination bond Si 0 (the frequencies C=O and SiF _a , are lowered, and the frequencies _asCOC are raised). The value of the orientation-induction parameter in the Buckingham equation, reflecting the dependence of C=O and SiF _a on the parameters of the medium (, n), increases with increasing electron-donor capability of the substituent X, indicating an increase in the strength of the coordination bond. The coefficient in the Hammett equation is determined by the polar properties of the medium.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2251–2254, October, 1984.     

Structure of the 18-Crown-6 Complex with Ammonium Hexafluorosilicate and Water

The crystalline host–guest type complex [(18-crown-6NH₄)₂][SiF₆]4H₂Ohas been obtained as the result of the interaction of SiF₄2NH₃ with 18-crown-6 (18C6) in an aqueous medium. Crystal data: monoclinic, space groupC 2 c, a=26.541(2), b=8.363(2), c=20.469(2) Å, = 122.43(1)°and Z=4. The final R-value is 0.070 for 3253 reflections with I 2(I).The crystals consist of the complex [NH₄18C6]⁺ cations, [SiF₆]^2-anions and water molecules. The ammonium cation is hydrogen bonded by three of its H-atoms to the crown ether oxygen atoms with N(1) O separations2.923(5)–2.940(5) Å and by the fourth H-atom to the fluorine atom of thehexafluorosilicate anion, the N(1)F(4) distance being 2.797(6) Å.The conformation of the macrocycle and the hydrogen-bond geometry in thecomplex cation closely resemble those in related adducts between 18-crown-6and ammonium salts. All crystal components are connected via a system of hydrogen bonds into a ribbon along the b axis in the unit cell.     

Hydrothermal synthesis and novel two-dimensional architecture with fluorescent properties constructed using 2-bromo-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate

A novel two-dimensional complex, [Cu(bbdc)(phen)]·(H₂O)(bbdc = 2-bromo-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate dianion; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis. The crystal structure consists of infinite chains of [Cu₂( ₄-bbdc)]²⁺ units connected by bis-monodentate bbdc ligands, the coordination mode of which [ ₄-bbdc] is very rare in the phenyldicarboxylate complexes. The substituent group of bbdc is believed to be the growth key of this coordination network.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of copper(II)-cobalt(II) complexes ofN,N′-1,2-propanedisalicylamidatocuprate(II)

Summary The binuclear metal complexes [Cu(sampn)Co(L)₂] (L=bipy, phen), have been prepared by the reaction of sodiumN,N-1,2-propanedisalicylamidatocuprate(II) heptahydrate, Na₂[Cu(sampn)] 7H₂O, with a divalent metalion, and 2,2-bipyridine or 1, 10-phenathroline. The complexes were characterized by variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements; the results indicate that a weak antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction operates between the metal ions.     

Medium effects on the reactions of coordination complexes: Base hydrolysisof(αβS)(p-hydroxybenzoato)(tetraethylenepentamine) cobalt(III) in iso-propanol–water,tert-butanol–water and dimethyl sulfoxide–water media

The base hydrolysis of (S)(p-hydroxybenzoato)-(tetraethylenepentamine)cobalt(III) has been investigated in aqueous–organic solvent media using i-PrOH, t-BuOH and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as cosolvents at 20.0 T (°C) 40.0 (I=0.02 mol dm ^-3) with 80% (v/v) of cosolvents. Only the base-catalysed path (k_obs=k_OH[OH^-]) is observed. The relative second order rate constant k _OH ^os /k _OH ^ow at I=0 increases nonlinearly with increasing mol fraction (x_O.S.) of the cosolvents, the rate acceleration in alcoholic cosolvents being greater than in DMSO. The destabilization of ^-OH in mixed solvent media alone does not explain the observed rate acceleration. The solvent composition dependence, log k _OH ^os = log k _OH ^ow + a_ix _os ⁱ [i=1,2,k _OH ⁰ denotes k_OH at I=0 in mixed solvent(s) and water (w)] indicates specific solute–solvent interactions. The values of the relative transfer free-energy data [_TG(t.s.) - _TG^o (i.s.)](sw)(25 °C)(G), where t.s. and i.s. denote the transition state and initial state of the substrates respectively, are positive for all substrates at all compositions, indicating a greater destabilizing effect of the mixed solvent on the transition state than on the initial state. The G values also correlate with G^E(G = ax_O.S. + cG^E) for all solvents, supporting the fact that solvent structural effects mediate the rates and energetics of the reaction. However, the solvent effects on the solvation components of H and S are mutually compensating, thus indicating that there is no change in the mechanism.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Copper–PMIDA Compound (H4PMIDA=H2O3PCH2N(CH2CO2H)2)

A new Cu(II)PMIDA compound [Cu(H₂PMIDA)(phen)] 3H₂O (1) (H₄PMIDA = H₂O₃PCH₂N (CH₂CO₂H)₂,phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) has been successfully synthesized and structurally characterized. In complex 1, Cu (II) is six coordinated by chelation in a tetradentate fashion by a PMIDA ligand and by two N atoms of a phen ligand. Every phen–Cu(II)–PMIDA group connects with each other via a hydrogen bond and the edge-to-face -stacking interaction. Complex 1 crystallized in triclinic P-1 with cell dimensions of a = 7.5817(6) Å, b = 10.6980(8) Å, c = 13.1852(10) Å, =82.350(2)°, = 84.151(2)°, =78.4250(2), V= 1035.25(14) ų, Z = 2, Dc = 1.677 Mg/m³.     

Synthesis,characterization and interaction of mixed polypyridyl ruthenium(II) complexes with calf thymus DNA

New mixed polypyridyl {HPIP = 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, dmb = 4,4-dimethyl-2,2-bipyridine} ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(phen)₂(HPIP)]²⁺, [Ru(dmp)₂(HPIP)]²⁺ and [Ru(dmb)₂(HPIP)]²⁺ were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses ¹H-n.m.r., u.v.–vis. spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Their DNA-binding properties were demonstrated by absorption, luminescence titrations, steady-state emission quenching and viscosity measurements. The results suggested that all the examined complexes bind with CT-DNA intercalatively. Methyl groups substituted at the 4,4-positions of bpy has no obvious effect on its DNA binding, whereas substituents at the 2- and 9-positions of phen have an impressive effect on its DNA-binding, as revealed by the decreased binding affinity.

2,2′-biimidazole, 2,2′-bibenzimidazole and imidazoles as ligands in cationic rhodium(I) complexes

Summary Cationic rhodium(I) complexes of the type [Rh(diolefin)(L-L)]ClO₄ and [Rh(diolefin)L₂]ClO₄, (diolefin = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, 2,5-norbornadiene and tetrafluorobenzobarrelene; L-L = 2,2-biimidazole, 2,2-bibenzimidazole; L = pyrazole or imidazoles) are described. [Rh(CO)₂(L-L)]-C1O₄ complexes, which can be obtained by reaction of cyclooctadiene derivatives with CO, react with P-donor ligands in equimolar ratios to yield [Rh(CO)(P-donor)(L-L)]ClO₄ monocarbonyl derivatives. The catalytic activity of some of these complexes is considered.     

Kinetics and mechanism of reactions of bis(biguanide)copper(II) ion with 2,2′-bipyridyl and 1,10-phenanthroline in aqueous solution

Summary In aqueous solution [Cu(bigH)₂]²⁺ (bigH=biguanide) reacts with 2,2-bipyridyl (bipy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) through intermediate formation of ternary complexes [Cu(bigH)(L)]²⁺ and [Cu(bipy)(phen)]²⁺ and binary complexes [CuL₂]²⁺ (L=bipy, phen). The rates of the different steps have been followed in borax buffer (pH 8.0±0.1) by stopped-flow spectrophotometry. For each step k_obs=k₀+k_L[L] and the k_L path appears to be associative. H and S values for the k_L path conform to an isokinetic trend.     

Spectroscopic investigation and thermal behavior of new carbonyl complexes [M(CO)4(N—N)(CuX)], (M = W,Mo; N—N = 2,2′-bipyridine, 1,10-phenanthroline; X = Cl,SCN)

[M(CO)₄(N—N)] reacts with CuCl to give new heterobimetallic metal carbonyls of the type [M(CO)₄(N—N)(CuCl)], M = W, Mo; N—N = 2,2-bipyridine (bipy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen). Reactions of [M(CO)₄(N—N)(CuCl)] with NaSCN produced the series of complexes of general formula [M(CO)₄(N—N)(CuSCN)]. The i.r. spectral of all the bimetallic carbonyls exhibited the general four (CO) band patterns of the precursors. The u.v.–vis. spectral data for precursors and products showed bands associated with * (nitrogen ligands), dd (intrametal), as well as MLCT d* (nitrogen ligands) and MLCT d *(CO) transitions. The [M(CO)₄(N—N)(CuX)] (X = Cl, SCN) emission spectra showed only one band associated with the MLCT transition. The t.g. curves revealed a stepwise loss of CO groups. The initial decomposition temperatures of the [M(CO)₄(N—N)(CuX)] series suggest that the bimetallic compounds are indeed thermally less stable than their precursors, and the X-ray data showed the formation of MO₃, CuMO₄, Cu₂O and CuO as final decomposition products, M = W, Mo. The spectroscopic data suggests that the heterobimetallic compounds are polymeric.     

Rhodium(I) carbonyl complexes with α-diimine ligands containing amino or hydroxy substituents

-Diimines, RN:C(R)C(R):NR(LL) derived from glyoxal, GLL (R=H) abbreviated as GAA (R= R=4-dimethylaminophenyl) or GHA (R= R=4-hydroxyphenyl), and derived from biacetyl, BLL (R=Me) abbreviated as BDH (R=R= NH₂), BOH (R=NH₂, R=OH) react with carbonylrhodium(I) compounds to give different products depending on the imino substituents in the ligand and/or the solvent employed. The reaction of -diimines bearing amino groups, such as GAA or BDH with [RhCl(CO)₂]₂ in acetone yields binuclear [RhCl(CO)₂]₂(-LL) while in CH₂Cl₂ ionic [Rh- (CO)₂(LL)]⁺[RhCl₂(CO)₂]^– species are obtained. In acetone [RhCl(CO)₂]₂(-GAA) exists as an equilibrium mixture between two different neutral binuclear species; [Rh(CO)₂(BDH)]⁺ exists as a mixture of two species containing chelate or monodentate bonded diimine respectively. GAA or BDH react in situ with [RhCl(CO)(C₂H₄)]₂ in benzene to yield tetracoordinated monocarbonylated [RhCl(CO)(LL)] compounds. -Diimines (LL) bearing hydroxy groups, such as GHA or BOH react with [RhCl(CO)₂]₂ or [RhCl(CO)(C₂H₄)]₂ to give pentacoordinated dicarbonylated [RhCl(CO)₂(LL)] compounds.

Ultrasonic study of the molecular encapsulation and the micellization processes of dodecylethyldimethylammonium bromide-water solutions in the presence of β-cyclodextrin or 2,6-di-o-methyl-β-cyclodextrin

Aqueous solutions of -cyclodextrin (-CD) or 2,6-di-o-methyl--cyclodextrin (DM--CD) and dodecylethyldimethylammonium bromide (D₁₂EDMAB) have been studied from speed of sound (u) data at 298.15 K, using a pulse-echo-overlap technique. The molecular encapsulation process of the surfactant monomer into the cyclodextrin cavity and its effect in the micellization process of the surfactant have been analyzed from theu measurements: I) as a function of [D₁₂EDMAB] in the presence of several initial cyclodextrin concentrations (-CD or.DM--CD); II) as a function of [cyclodextrin] (-CD or DM--CD), for an initial micellar solution of D₁₂EDMAB and; III) as a function of the [cyclodextrin]/[surfactant] stoichiometric concentrations. Both inclusion complexes formed (-CDD₁₂EDMAB) and (DM--CDD₁₂EDMAB) have stoichiometries of 11, and their association constantK have been determined using a model proposed in this work, based on the additivity of the different contributions of the involved species to the speed of sound. The apparent critical micellar concentration, cmc^*, of D₁₂EDMAB is found to increase linearly upon the addition of cyclodextrin (-CD or DM--CD). The free surfactant concentration in the micellar region, [D₁₂EDMAB]_f, decreases in the presence of -CD and slightly increases in the presence of DM--CD. The influence of the parcial methylation of the -cyclodextrin (-CDDM--CD) and of the polar head of the surfactant (D₁₂TAB D₁₂EDMAB) on the complextion and micellar parameters are also discussed.Supplementary material available: Tables of speed of sound (14 pages) are available from the authors.     

Kinetics of ferrocenoylacetonato substitution from (1,5-cyclooctadiene)(ferrocenoylacetonato)rhodium(I) with 2,2′-dipyridyl and derivatives of 1,10-phenanthroline

Treatment of MeOH solutions of [Rh(cod)(fca)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, fca = ferrocenoylacetonato) with seven derivatives of 1,10-phenanthroline (N,N), as well as with the (N,N) ligand 2,2-dipyridyl, gave [Rh(cod)(N,N)]⁺. The kinetics of these reactions follow the rate law: Rate = k[Rh(cod)(fca)[N,N] The temperature dependence of all the studied substitutions resulted in activation entropies, S , more negative than –100 J K^–1 mol^–1 which is indicative of associative mechanisms. The pK _a's of the incoming phenanthroline derivatives were between 3.03 and 6.31 but did not influence the reaction rate to any significant extent. This implies that the rate determining step during the substitution involves Rh—O bond breaking and not Rh—N bond formation. Substitution of fca with 2,2-dipyridyl was slightly faster (k = 118 dm³ mol^–1 s^–1) than with the 1,10-phenanthroline derivatives (k _average = 14.2 dm³ mol^–1 s^–1) and may be attributed to the free rotation capability of the two pyridyl rings about the 1-1 carbon–carbon axis in 2,2-dipyridyl. 1,10-Phenanthroline cannot rotate about the corresponding carbon axis.     

Inclusion Compounds of NaI with 13-Membered Azo- and Azoxycrown Ethers

In bothcomplexes the cation is coordinated tochain oxygen atoms and to one nitrogen atom of the azoor azoxy unit. The ability of bothligands to form complexes in relation to thegeometry of the azo or azoxy subunit of themacrocycle is discussed.
