Synthesis and characterization of chloro-bis(quinoline-2-carboxylato-κ2N,O)gallium(III)

The preparation and characterization of a new gallium(III) complex with quinoline-2-carboxylate, of formula [Ga(quin-2-c)₂Cl], are described. The crystal structure of the complex has been determined by X-ray diffraction, crystallizing in monoclinic space group P2₁/n with Ga(III) adopting a distorted tetragonal pyramid. Gallium(III) coordinates two quinoline-2-carboxylates and one chloride with a Cl,N₂,O₂ donor set. In the crystal the 2-D supramolecular structure is generated by weak intermolecular interactions, C–H?···?O, C–H?···?Cl, and C–H?···?π. The cytotoxicity assays against several human cancer cell lines (Du145, A549, MCF-7, A498, HT-29) and against mouse fibroblasts (BALB/3T3) revealed moderate antiproliferative activity of the complex.     

CIRCULAR DICHROISM AND ELECTRONIC ABSORPTION OF RHODIUM(III) EDTA-TYPE COMPLEXES: Ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetato-N,N′-di-3-propionatorhodate(III) and (S,S)-Ethylenediamine-N,N′-disuccinatorhodate(III) Ions

Abstract

Electronic absorption and CD spectra are reported for the sexidentate complexes, trans(O₅)-Rh(EDDDA)^?, trans(O₅ O₆)-Rh(EDDDA)^?, and trans(O₅)-Rh(S,S-EDDS)^? (EDDDA)=ethylenediamine-N,N′-di-3-propionate; S,S-EDDS=(S,S)-ethylenediamine-N,N′-disuccinate). Because of the sterospecific coordination of the S,S-EDDS ligand the absolute configuration of (+)_D-trans(O₅)-Rh(S,S-EDDS)^? is known to be Λ. By comparison of their CD spectra to that of the (+)_D isomer of trans(O₅)-Rh(S,S-EDDS)^?, the absolute configurations of the (?)_DEDDDA complexes are assigned tentatively.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,and properties of optically active Lu(III) and Yb(III) complexes of N,N′-bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N,N′-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-R-1,2-propanediamine with chloride or thiocyanate

The reaction of N,N′-bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N,N′-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-R-1,2-propanediamine (R-bbppnH₂) with LnCl₃?6H₂O (Ln: Lu, Yb) stereoselectively gave an optically active complex, [LnCl(R-bbppn)], which crystallizes in the acentric space group of P2₁2₁2₁. The central lutetium(III) is coordinated by two oxygens from two phenolates, four nitrogens from two pyridines, and one bidentate propanediamine of R-bbppn^2?, one chloride to form a seven-coordinate distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry. Although two optical isomers, ΔΛΔ and ΛΔΛ, are possible for such a structure, the absolute configuration of the complex is stereoselectively unified to ΔΛΔ. The coordinated chloride of the complex is readily replaced by other ligands, and hence the reaction with thiocyanate results in formation of another seven-coordinate complex, [Ln(NCS)(R-bbppn)].     

POLAROGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF THE SYSTEMS ARSENIC(III)-TARTARIC ACID AND ARSENIC(III)-1,2-DIAMINO-CYCLOHEXANE-N,N,N′,N′-TETRAACETIC ACID (DCTA)

Abstract

The reactions between As(III), tartaric acid (H₂T)and DCTA were investigated polarographically. The conditional stability constants of As(III)-complexes at a given pH-value and variable ligand concentration were calculated from the change of the limiting currents. The optimum conditions for calculating stability constants from the current were also discussed. It was found that DCTA (H₄L)formed the complex [As(OH)₂HL]^2- whose overall formation constant was lgβ111=(20.67 ±0.09)atμ=0.1 and t°- (25.0±0.2)°C, whereas the complex between As(III) and H₂T was [As(OH)₂T]^? with an overall stability constant 1gβ 101= 6.62 ±0.14 at μ=0.1 and t°= (25 ± 0.2)°C.     

Spin crossover studies in tris(N,N′-dialkyldithiocarbamato)iron(III) complexes

A series of fifteen complexes of the type [Fe(RRNCS₂)₃] with symmetric (R=R=n- C₆H₁₃, n-C₈H₁₇, CH₂–CH=;CH₂, C₆H₅, C₆H₁₁ and C₆H₅CH₂), unsymmetric (R = CH₃; R = n-C₄H₉, C₆H₁₁, C₆H₅ and R = C₂H₅; R = n-C₄H₉, C₆H₁₁, C₆H₅ and i-C₃H₇) and ring substituents (RNR=pyrrolidyl and piperidyl) have been synthesized and their magnetic moments and Mössbauer spectra recorded from room temperature (RT) to liquid nitrogen temperature (LNT). Room temperature Mössbauer spectra of all the complexes exhibit an asymmetric doublet, which could be resolved into two doublets, each corresponding to low and high spin states in equilibrium. The crystal structure of tris(N, N-diallyldithiocarbamato)iron(III) shows it to be monoclinic with trigonally distorted octahedral geometry and space group C2/c. Fe–S stretching vibrations in the far i.r. region also show equilibria, HS LS. Depending on the nature of the alkyl group substituent, variable temperature magnetic moment and Mössbauer spectral studies, all the complexes may be divided into three groups; high spin complexes exhibiting spin-crossover (⁶A_1g ²T_2g), high spin complexes exhibiting spin transition (⁶A_1g ⁴T_1g) and intermediate spin complexes showing spin transition (⁴A_1g ²T_2g). On the basis of areas of the two doublets corresponding to high and low spin states, their percent contributions were calculated. Furthermore, magnetic moments of the equilibrium mixture calculated on the basis of respective areas compare well with the experimentally determined _eff values. E_Q values for both high and low spin states show linear decrease with increasing temperature.     

Cobalt(III)-dithiooxamide,cobalt(III)-N,N′-diphenylthiooxamide and cobalt(III)-N,N′-diphenyldithiooxamide complexing in the KCo[Fe(CN)6]-gelatin-immobilized matrices

Novel complexing processes by Co^III-dithiooxamide, Co^III-N,N-diphenylthiooxamide and Co^III-N,N-diphenyldithiooxamide systems, with a cobalt(III)hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix in contact with an aqueous solution of the corresponding ligand, have been observed and analyzed. Under the specific conditions described, four different coordination compounds are formed in the Co^III-dithiooxamide system, three of which are insoluble in water, whereas in each of the Co^III-N,N-diphenylthiooxamide and Co^III-N,N-diphenylthiooxamide systems, three water-insoluble coordination compounds are formed. In solution or the solid phase, formation of only one complex is observed, in each of the systems studied.     

Ionic liquids from the cationic cobalt(III) Schiff base complex, [Co(acacen)L2][Tf2N] (acacen = N,N′-bis(acetylacetone)ethylenediamine,Tf2N = bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide)

Ionic liquids comprising cationic cobalt(III) complexes [Co(acacen)L₂][Tf₂N] (L?=?3-butylpyridine (1), 1-butylimidazole (2); acacen?=?N,N′-bis(acetylacetone)ethylenediamine, Tf₂N?=?bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide) were prepared. 1 is a liquid at room temperature and exhibits a glass transition at ?12?°C, whereas 2 is a solid at room temperature with a melting point of 74.6?°C and glass transition temperature of ?15?°C upon cooling from the melt. These salts are reddish brown diamagnetic materials that are stable against air and water; these properties differ from those of the corresponding iron(III) salt. Desorption of the axial ligands of 1 and 2 occurs at 180 and 207?°C, respectively.     

Extraction of americium(III) and europium(III) using a gamma pre-irradiated solution of N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-dibutyltetradecyl malonamide in n-dodecane modified with N,N′-dihexyloctanamide

The extraction of Am(III) and Eu(III) using a γ-pre-irradiated N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-dibutyltetradecyl malonamide (DMDBTDMA) modified with N,N′-dihexyloctanamide (DHOA) in n-dodecane (NDD) at 4.5M HNO₃ has been studied as a function of the absorbed dose up to 2×10⁶ Gray. The distribution ratios of Am(III) and Eu(III) were almost constant until a dose of 1×10⁵ Gray and then they decreased gradually up to a dose of 2×10⁶ Gray. The decrease of the distribution ratios of Am(III) and Eu(III) are due to the decreasing concentration of the DMDBTDMA by a γ-pre-irradiation and these results were supported by a determination of the DMDBTDMA concentration with a gas chromatography method. The distribution ratios of Am(III), Eu(III), Ce, Nd and Y with γ-pre-irradiated (DMDBTDMA-DHOA)/NDD have also been studied as a function of the nitric acid concentration and the extraction temperature.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Chromium(III), Molybdenum(III), Ruthenium(III) and Osmium(III) Complexes with N2O2–Schiff Bases of 2-Hydroxy-1-Naphthaldimines

Monomolybdenum, monochromium, triosmium and triruthenium clusters, containing weakly coordinated ligands, are valuable starting materials for the preparation of a wide variety of compounds because of the ease with which these ligands can be displaced by another substrate under mild conditions. Four widely used complexes of this type are Mo(CO)₆, Cr(CO)₆, Os₃(CO)₁₂ and Ru₃(CO)₁₂ respectively. These complexes react with 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldimines to give octahedral complexes which are characterized by elemental analyses, i.r. and u.v.–vis. spectra, molar conductances, d.t.a. and t.g.a. analyses, cyclic voltammetry, magnetic and e.s.r. measurements. The molar conductances in DMF solution indicate that the complexes are non-ionic. The i.r. spectra of complexes (3), (7) and (10) show (CO) bands due to bonded CO groups, however complexes (6) and (13) show (CO) bands due to bonded, bridged and terminal CO groups. The g ₁₁-values of the complexes indicate that they have covalent bond character. Also, the electrochemical reduction of the complexes has been discussed.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and reactivity of trans-diaquo N,N′-ethylenebis-(3-methoxysalicylideneiminato)chromium(III)

A new chromium(III) Schiff base complex, [Cr(3-methoxysalen)(H₂O)₂]ClO₄, where salen=N,N-ethylenebis- (salicylideneimine), has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques. Single crystal X-ray data reveals that the complex assumes a trans-diaquo structure with formulation [Cr(C₁₈H₂₂N₂O₆)]ClO₄ but, unlike in Cr (salen)(H₂O)₂ ⁺, the two trans-water molecules are equidistant from Cr^III. The effect of the substituent on the phenyl ring in respect of redox reactivity has been investigated. The kinetics of the oxidation of [Cr(Schiff base)- (H₂O)₂]ClO₄, where Schiff base=salen, (1) and 3-OMe-salen, (2) by PhOI has been studied. The bimolecular rate constant for the formation of the O=Cr^v Schiff base in case of (2) was four times faster than that of (1). The introduction of the OMe group substituent on the phenyl ring influences not only the structure and crystal packing, but also the reactivity of the complex and the electronic environment around the metal ion.     

Electrochemical investigation of N,N′-Propylene-bis-(salicylideneiminato) Mn(III) in phosphate buffer solutions

Summary An electrochemical study on N,N-Propylene-bis-(salicylideneiminato) Mn(III) was performed using cyclic voltammetry with convolution-deconvolution and digital simulation in phosphate buffer solutions ofpH values ranging from 5–9.5 at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The reduction pathway of the investigated complex shows that a moderately fast transfer of one electron is followed by a very fast chemical reaction (E _q C _irr scheme). The electrochemical parameters have been determined experimentally andvia digital simulation experiments.

Radiolysis of cerium(III) 1,2-bis(β-aminoethoxy)ethane N,N,N′,N′-sodium sulfonate triacetic acid chelate

The publication describes chelation studies of cerium(III) with 1,2-bis(-aminoethoxy)-ethane N,N,N,N-sodium sulfonate triacetic acid (ASTA). The results showed the effectiveness of ASTA as a chelating agent by molar ratio, continuous variation and slope ratio methods. Stable 11 complex was formed at pH from 4 to 8. Aqueous solutions of the chelate of different mole ratios at pH and 7.5 were irradiated by -radiation with different doses. The results show that a decrease of absorbance with increasing absorbed dose was obtained in the dose range studied. A proposed radiolytic mechanism is discussed. The degradation of ligand was due to OH radical.     

Heterobinuclear copper(II)–lanthanoid(III) complexes bridged by N,N′-oxamidobis(benzoato)cuprate(II)

Eight new -oxamido-bridged copper(II)–lanthanoid(III) heterobinuclear complexes described by the overall formula Cu(obbz)Ln(Me-phen)₂NO₃ (Ln = Y, La, Nd, Eu, Gd, Tb, Ho, Er), where obbz denotes the oxamidobis(benzoato) and Me-phen represents 5-methyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Me-phen), have been synthesized and characterized by the elemental analyses, spectroscopic (i.r., u.v., e.s.r.) studies, magnetic moments (at room temperature) and by molar conductivity measurements. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of Cu(obbz)Gd(Me-phen)₂NO₃ has also been measured over the 4.2 300 K range. The least-squares fit of the experimental susceptibilities based on the spin Hamiltonian operator, = –2 J ₁ · ₂, yielded J = + 2.18 cm^–1. The observed Gd^III–Cu^II coupling is ferromagnetic. A plausible mechanism for a ferromagnetic coupling between Gd^III–Cu^II is discussed in terms of spin-polarization.

Synthesis and magnetic properties of copper(II)-lanthanoid(III)-copper(II) trinuclear complexes with N,N′-bis(2-aminoethyl)-oxamido ligand

Summary Ten novel -oxamido trinuclear complexes, namely Cu₂–(oxae)₂Ln(ClO₄)₃ (Ln = Y, Pr, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er and Yb), where oxae donotes the N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl)-oxamido dianion, were prepared and characterized. The magnetic susceptibility of Cu₂(oxae)₂Gd(ClO₄)₃ was measured over the 4–300 K range and the observed data were successfully simulated by an equation based on the spin Hamiltonian operator . The exchange integrals J _(Gd-Cu) and J _Gd-Cu were found to be 2.37 and –0.71cm^-1, respectively, indicating that very weakly ferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction operates between copper(II) and gadolinium(III) ions.Visiting scholar: Qufu Normal University.     

Kinetic studies on the reaction of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′,N′-triacetate chromium(III) with hydrogen peroxide

The rate of reaction of Cr(III)L (L=N-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′,N′-triacetate) with hydrogen peroxide was studied in aqueous media and was found to yield Cr(VI) over the temperature range of 25–41 °C. The reaction was followed spectrophotometrically at 396 nm under pseudo-first order conditions with hydrogen peroxide in a large excess. The reaction follows first-order kinetics in Cr(III). The dependence of the rate constant on hydrogen peroxide concentration is attributed to the formation of an intermediate between the monohydroxy chromium(III) complex and hydrogen peroxide which decomposes in the rate determining step. At high hydrogen peroxide concentration, the order is changed from first to zero order.The values of the intramolecular electron transfer rate constant, the formation constant of the intermediate complex and the activation parameters were calculated.     

cis-Bis[N1,N2-bis(trimethylsilyl)benz­amidinato-κ2N1,N2]chloro(4-tolyl­imido-κN)vanadium(V)

The title complex, [V(C₇H₇N)(C₁₃H₂₃N₂Si₂)₂Cl], consists of a V metal centre coordinated to five N atoms and a Cl⁻ ion in a pseudo-octahedral arrangement. The N atoms of the benzamidinate ligands form two four-membered chelate rings to V, with bite angles of 63.59 (8) and 64.36 (8)°, whilst the fifth N atom is from a p-tolyl­imido ligand [V—N—C 172.2 (2)°] located cis with respect to the Cl⁻ ion [Cl—V—N_imido 96.96 (8)°].     

Infrared investigations of the order–disorder ferroelectric phase transitions in imidazolium halogenobismuthates(III) and halogenoantimonates(III): (C3N2H5)5Bi2Cl11, (C3N2H5)5Bi2Br11 and (C3N2H5)5Sb2Br11

Infrared spectra of the powdered (C₃N₂H₅)₅Bi₂Cl₁₁, (C₃N₂H₅)₅Bi₂Br₁₁and (C₃N₂H₅)₅Sb₂Br₁₁ crystals in the region of internal vibrations of the imidazolium cations (3600 and 400 cm⁻¹) at the temperature intervals of 10–300 K, covering paraelectric–ferroelectric phase transitions, are presented and discussed in this paper. The research shows that the vibrational states of the imidazolium cations change markedly during the paraelectric–ferroelectric phase transition. The continuous nature of these transitions is well reflected in the infrared spectra, which is consistent with the previous X-ray and dielectric findings.     

Synthesis,characterization and charge-transfer photochemistry of trans-aquo azido-N,N′-trimethylenebis(naphthylideneiminato)chromium(III)

A new Cr^III complex, viz. trans-[Cr(naphprn)(H₂O)₂]ClO₄·2H₂O, (1) {naphprn=N,N-trimethylenebis(naphthylideneimine)} has been synthesized and characterized. Aquo ligand substitution of ( 1 ) by the azide ligand gave rise to trans-[Cr(naphprn)(N₃)(H₂O)], ( 2 ). Irradiation of ( 2) in DMF gave nitrido(naphprn)chromium(V) ( 3 ). Solutions of ( 3 ) showed e.p.r. spectra at room temperature (g _iso=1.9865). The i.r. spectra showed disappearance of a band at 2067cm^–1 showing the breakdown of NN and appearance of a new band at 1074cm^–1which is assigned to the Cr¹⁴N, stretching frequency indicating the formation of a nitrido chromium(V) complex, ( 3). The u.v.–vis. spectrum of complex ( 3 ) exhibited a d–d band maximum at 553nm (=120M^–1cm^–1). The rate of formation of ( 2 ) was found to be 5.0×10^–3M^–1s^–1 in an aqueous acidic medium at [Cr^III]=0.5×10^–3M; [N₃ ^–]=0.01–0.15M; [H⁺]=0.001M and I=0.2M (LiClO₄). The rate of photo-decomposition of ( 2 ) to give rise to ( 3 ) was found to be 0.15×10^–3s^–1 in DMF.     

Ligand field analysis of tris(aminoacidato)cobalt(III) complexes with glycinato(N,O) and β-alaninato(N,O) metal chelate rings

In addition to showing a well-known demarcation between facial and meridional configurations the ligand field spectra of Co(βAla)_x(Gly)_3-x (x = 1 or 2) [βAla = β-alan- inato(N,O) ring, and gly = glycinato(N,O) ring] complexes provide a rare example of a marked difference in the observed splitting pattern of the¹T_1g(O_h) level among the three possible meridional isomers generated by cyclic permutation of chelate rings with respect to the pseudo three-fold axis. Angular overlap calculations which consider an anisotropy of the metal-car☐ylate oxygen donor interaction reproduce fairly well the ligand field spectra of the complete series of Co(βAla)_x(Gly)_3-x (x = 0, 1, 2 or 3) complexes.
