Synthesis, Spectral Characterization and Electrochemical Properties of New vic-dioxime Complexes Bearing Carboxylate

Three new vic-dioxime ligands, [N-(ethyl-4-amino-1-piperidine carboxylate)-phenylglyoxime (L¹H₂), N-(ethyl-4-amino-1-piperidine carboxylate)-glyoxime (L²H₂), and N,N′-bis(ethyl-4-amino-1-piperidine carboxylate)-glyoxime (L³H₂)], and their Co(II) with Cu(II) metal complexes, were synthesized for the first time. Mononuclear complexes of these ligands with a 1:2 metal-ligand ratio were prepared with Co(II) and Cu(II) salts. The BF₂⁺-capped Co(II) and mononuclear complexes of the vic-dioxime were prepared for [Co(L¹·BF₂)₂] and [Co(L²·BF₂)₂]. The ligands act in a polydentate fashion bonding through nitrogen atoms in the presence of a base, as do most vic-dioximes. The cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes are non-electrolytes as shown by their molar conductivities (Λ_M) in DMF. The structures of the ligands and complexes were determined by elemental analyses, FT-i.r., u.v.–vis., ¹H- and ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and molar conductivity. The comparative electrochemical studies show that the stabilities of the reduced or oxidized species and the electrode potentials of the complexes are affected by the substituents attached on the oxime moieties of the complexes.

The Decomposition of Transition Metal Tetrafluoroborates by some strong Base Ligands

Abstract

Some transition metal complexes of triethylene-diamine (TED, I) and quinuclidine (Q, II) have been reported.^1–5 Recently we treated I and II with metal bistetrafluoroborates (M=Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺) which have not been studied yet, and postulated that pure coordination complexes might be obtained. However, evidence for the existence of 1:1 adducts such as C₆H₁₂N₂:BF₃ (III) and C₇H₁₃N:BF₂ (IV) in treatment of I and II with metal bistetrafluoroborates has now been found. We wish to describe our results concerning formation of these two new 1:1 adducts in this letter.     

Synthesis, structural and optical properties of novel borylated Cu(II) and Co(II) metal complexes of 4-benzylaminobiphenylglyoxime

4-Benzylaminobiphenylglyoxime ligand and its Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes were prepared. -bridge containing 4-benzylaminobiphenylglyoxime complexes were obtained by replacing of the bridging protons of the dioxime complexes with BF₂ group. These compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic (ICP-OES, infra-red) and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Thermal decomposition of the complexes is studied in nitrogen atmosphere. The final decomposition products are found to be the corresponding metal oxides. The optical constants such as optical conductivity, dielectric constant, refractive index were determined for the complexes. The analysis of the optical absorption data revealed that the band gap E_g was direct transitions. The optical dispersion parameters were determined according to Wemple and Didomenico method.

Ferrocene based chiral binuclear η6‐benzene‐Ru(II)‐phosphinite complexes: Synthesis,characterization and catalytic activity in asymmetric reduction of ketones

In the present study, a series of chiral C₂‐symmetric ferrocenyl based binuclear η⁶‐benzene‐Ru(II) complexes bearing diphenylphosphinite and diisopropylphosphinite moieties have been synthesised. The new binuclear η⁶‐benzene‐Ru(II)‐phosphinite complexes were characterised based on nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P–NMR), FT‐IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Then, these complexes have been screened as catalytic precursors in the transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone with 2‐propanol as both the hydrogen source and solvent in the presence of KOH. The corresponding optically active secondary alcohols were obtained in excellent conversion rates between 96 and 99% and moderate to good enantioselectivities (up to 78% ee). The complex 5 was the most efficient catalyst among the four new complexes investigated herein.

A kinetic study of the oxidation of <Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">l</Emphasis>-methionine by water soluble colloidal MnO<Subscript>2</Subscript>

Aqueous solution of water soluble colloidal MnO₂ was prepared by Perez-Benito method. Kinetics of l-methionine oxidation by colloidal MnO₂ in perchloric acid (0.93 × 10⁻⁴ to 3.72 × 10⁻⁴ mol dm⁻³) has been studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction follows first-order kinetics with respect to [H⁺]. The first-order kinetics with respect to l-methionine at low concentration shifts to zero order at higher concentration. The effects of [Mn(II)] and [F⁻] on the reaction rate were also determined. Manganese (II) has sigmoidal effect on the rate reaction and act as auto catalyst. The exact dependence on [Mn(II)] cannot be explained due to its oxidation by colloidal MnO₂. Methionine sulfoxide was formed as the oxidation product of l-methionine. Ammonia and carbon dioxide have not been identified as the reaction products. The mechanism with the observed kinetics has been proposed and discussed.

Synthesis and Analytical Characterization of Functionalized β‐Hydroxydithiocinnamic Acids and their Esters. Complex Chemistry towards Nickel(II), Palladium(II), and Platin(II) Starting from silyl‐protected 4‐hydroxy acetophenone ( 1 ) the 1,1‐ethenedihiolato complexes 3 – 5 were synthesised using carbon disulfide and potassium‐tert‐butylate as a base.

The molecular structures of three of the complexes have been determined using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, indicating a pseudo‐octahedral geometry around the ruthenium(II) ion. All the ruthenium(II) arene complexes were explored as catalysts for transfer hydrogenation of a wide range of aromatic, cyclic and aliphatic ketones with 2‐propanol using 0.1 mol% catalyst loading, and conversions of up to 100% were obtained. Further, the influence of other variables on the transfer hydrogenation reaction, such as base, temperature, catalyst loading and substrate scope, was also investigated.
