Reaction of [Au^III(C₆F₅)₃(tht)] with RaaiR′ in dichloromethane medium leads to [Au^III(C₆F₅)₃ (RaaiR′)] [RaaiR′=p-R-C₆H₄-N=N-C₃H₂-NN-l-R′, (1-3), R = H (a), Me (b), Cl (c) and R′= Me (1), CH₂CH₃ (2), CH₂Ph (3), tht is tetrahydrothiophen]. The nine new complexes are characterised by ES/MS as well as FAB, IR and multinuclear NMR (¹H,¹³C,¹⁹F) spectroscopic studies. In addition to dimensional NMR studies as¹H,¹H COSY and¹H¹³C HMQC permit complete assignment of the complexes in the solution phase.     

Synthesis, structural and spectral properties of novel octakis(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzylthio) substituted porphyrazine derivatives

[Octakis(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzylthio)porphyrazinato] magnesium carrying eight (3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzylthio) groups on the peripheral positions have been synthesized by cyclotetramerization of 1,2-bis(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzylthio)maleonitrile in the presence of magnesium butanolate. Its demetalation by the treatment with trifluoroacetic acid resulted in the metal-free derivative. Further reaction of this product with copper(II) acetate, zinc(II) acetate and cobalt(II) acetate have led to the metallo derivatives M = Cu(II), Zn(II), Co(II). These novel complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, together with FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ¹⁹F NMR, UV-vis and mass spectral data.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and Sol-Gel Behavior of Dichlorotitanium(IV) (O-Alkyl,O-Cycloalkyl,and O-Aryl Trithiophosphates)

Dichlorotitanium(IV) trithiophosphates of the type TiCl₂[(RO)P(S)S₂] (where R = Me, Et, Prⁿ, Prⁱ, Buⁿ, Bu^s, Buⁱ, Amⁱ, Ph and cyclohexyl) have been synthesized for the first time by the reaction of titanium tetrachloride with potassium trithiophosphates in a 1:1 molar ratio in anhydrous benzene. Sol-gel chemistry of these titanium(IV) compounds has been studied in dry benzene by treatment with hydrogen sulfide gas. These newly synthesized derivatives have been characterized by elemental analysis (C, H, S, Cl, and Ti), molecular weight measurement, and spectral [IR and multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P)] studies. The bonding mode of trithiophosphate ligands and tentative structure around titanium(IV) are discussed.

Abstract

Replacement reactions of bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)antimony(III) chloride have been carried out with oxygen and sulfur donor ligands such as disodium oxalate, sodium acetate, sodium salicylate, benzoic acid, thioglycolic acid, acetylacetone, thiphenol, ethane-1,2-dithiol, and 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol to give mixed bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)antimony(III) derivatives of the corresponding ligands. These derivatives have been characterized by the physicochemical [melting point and molecular weight determination, elemental analysis (C, H, N, S, and Sb)], spectral [FT-IR, far-IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C)], ESI-mass, powder XRD, and SEM studies.

Internal Mobility, Structure, Phase Transitions, and Ionic Conductivity in Thallium Fluoroantimonates(III) TlSb4F13 and TlSb3F10

Internal mobility in TlSb₄F₁₃ (I) and TlSb₃F₁₀ (II) was studied by ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy in the temperature range 210-450 K. Types of ionic motion in the fluoride subsystem were determined. Phase transitions resulting in modifications with high ionic (superionic) conductivity above 420 K were established for both compounds (385-425 K). Using impedance spectroscopy, we studied the electrophysical properties of I and II in the temperature range 290-425 K ( 1.1×10^-3 and 1.0× 10^-3 S/cm for I and II, respectively; T=425 K).     

Synthesis, characterisation and mass spectrometric fragmentation of O-(chlorodifluoroacylated) alcohols

An indirect and uncatalysed esterification of chlorodifluoroacetic acid with polyfluoro and hydrocarbon alcohols has been developed. The method which involves the reaction between sodium chlorodifluoroacetate and alcohols in dimethylformamide (DMF) is particularly facile with polyfluorinated alcohols resulting in esters in 71-85% yield. The esters have been characterised on the basis of ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR and mass spectral data. The electron impact (EI) mass spectrometric fragmentation of these polyfluorinated esters have shown some interesting features which have been substantiated by using tandem mass spectrometry.     

Synthesis,characterization, and insecticidal activity of new tin (IV) complexes

A three-component reaction of dimethyltin dibromide with imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, pyridine derivatives, or isoquinoline and allyl bromide in refluxing ethanol affords the ionic complex, bis(1-allylcycloiminium) dimethyltetrabromostannate (II). The reaction involves N-allylation of cycloimine accompanied by the coordination of two bromide ions with the tin atom of dimethyltin dibromide. The complexes have been characterized by infrared and ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR studies. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of a complex reveals the tin atom to be hexacoordinated and the dimethyltetrabromostannate (II) anion having octahedral geometry. Some of the complexes tested for their insecticidal activity are found to exhibit strong activity against Tribolium castaneum insect with LC₅₀ ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 ppm.     

Synthesis and characterization of Cu(II) paddlewheel complexes possessing fluorinated carboxylate ligands

The goal of this study was to establish the relationship between the ¹⁹F NMR line broadening and the varying distance between the ¹⁹F nucleus and copper(II) ion, with the aim of gathering data that can be used to interpret ¹⁹F NMR spectra of subsequent fluorine-labeled, copper-binding proteins. Fluorinated alkyl and aryl copper(II) carboxylates were synthesized from fluorinated carboxylic acids and Cu(OH)₂. The copper(II) carboxylates were characterized using ¹⁹F NMR, IR, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. In the alkyl carboxylate compounds, the line broadening and chemical shift lessened with increased distance between the fluorine atom and the copper ions; however, in the aryl carboxylate derivatives, increased distance was not a factor in the amount of line broadening or change in chemical shift between the acid and metal salt. The compound, bis(3-(trifluoromethyl)butyrate) copper(II) (5) was found to possess the optimum combination of decreased line broadening and increased chemical shift sensitivity in ¹⁹F NMR. The crystal structures obtained for compounds 1, 2, 4, and 6 were analogous to previous copper(II) carboxylate complexes, though it is noted that compound 6, bis(5,5,5-trifluoropentanoate) copper(II) assumes a tetrameric structure lacking apical ligands, and thus enables the formation of an extended network of near-neighbor copper(II) ions.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic and thermal studies on platinum(II) complexes of 5-nitrosouracil derivatives

Three complexes were obtained during reactions of 6-amino-1-methyl-5-nitrosouracil, 6-methylamino-1-methyl-5-nitrosouracil and 6-methylamino-1-benzyl-5-nitrosouracil with K₂PtCl₄. The complexes were isolated in good yields as powdery precipitates and characterized through elemental analysis, infrared and ¹H NMR spectroscopies, and thermal analysis. The pyrimidine bases easily substitute chloro ligands as a neutral monodentate ligand form. The exocyclic oxygen atoms are the probable binding sites rather than ring or exocyclic nitrogen atoms. trans Square planar structures were proposed in all cases.     

Ionic mobility and structure of fluorozirconates Rb2? x (NH4) x ZrF6 ( x > 1.5) by NMR, x-ray structure analysis, and impedance spectroscopy

The ionic mobility in the temperature interval 180 to 480 K, structure, and electrophysical properties of rubidium-ammonium hexafluorozirconates Rb_2−x (NH₄) _x ZrF₆ (1.5 ≤ x ≤ 2.0) are studied by methods of the ¹⁹F, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, x-ray structure analysis, differential thermal analysis, and impedance spectroscopy. Correlations between the composition of the cationic sublattice, the character of ionic motions, and the phase transition temperature (of the type order-disorder) are established in these compounds. The salient feature of the high-temperature modifications of these fluorozirconates with x ≥ 1.5 is the translation diffusion of ions inside the fluoride and ammonium sublattices and the ¹⁹F NMR spectra are characterized by monoaxial anisotropy of the magnetic shielding tensor of the fluorine nuclei. Fluorozirconates with x > 1.5 are shown to belong with the structural type (NH₄)₂ZrF₆. The rubidium cations isomorphically replace the ammonium cations. The electrophysical characteristics of the compounds are examined in the temperature interval 300 to 480 K. It is established that the electroconductivity of these compounds increases with x.

Synthesis,characterization and initial biological studies of a new platinum(II) complex with deoxyalliin

A new platinum(II) complex with deoxyalliin was synthesized and characterized by chemical and spectroscopic techniques. Elemental and mass spectrometry analyses of the solid complex fit to the composition [Pt(C₆H₁₁NO₂S)Cl₂]·H₂O. ¹³C NMR, ¹⁵N NMR and infrared spectra of the complex are consistent with coordination of deoxyalliin to Pt(II) through the nitrogen and sulfur atoms forming a square-planar geometry. The complex is soluble in dimethylsulfoxide. Biological analysis for evaluation of a potential cytotoxic effect of the complex was performed using HeLa cells, a human cervix adenocarcinoma-derived cell line. The results were compared with those of a palladium(II) complex previously described.     

123Sb NQR and 19F NMR study of potassium,rubidium, and cesium heptafluorodiantimonates(iii)

The dynamics of crystal lattices of potassium, rubidium, and cesium heptafluorodiantimonates(iii) and specific features of internal rotations of the Sb₂F₇ fluoride groups in these compounds were studied using ¹²³Sb NQR in the temperature interval from 77 to 325 K and ¹⁹F NMR in the temperature interval from 240 to 470 K in combination with X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analyses. The distinctions in the dynamic behavior of the fluoride ions with changing the size (polarizability) of outer-sphere cations are discussed. The structural phase transition in CsSb₂F₇ was revealed at 425—430 K accompanied by the appearance of a high ion conductivity ( 1.3·10^–3 S cm^–1 at 450 K). A second type phase change can exist at 220—270 K.     

Synthesis and characterization of 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethoxy) benzene based saturated and unsaturated polyesters

Polyesterification of adipic acid and maleic anhydride with 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethoxy)benzene (HER) in the presence of toluene-4-sulphonic acid was carried out using melt condensation technique. The structural characterization of the synthesized polyesters had been carried out using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) spectroscopic methods. The thermal properties of the polyesters were studied using differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The activation energies for the thermal degradation of the polyesters were calculated by the method of Dharwadkar and Kharkhanavala and discussed. The char residue value at 600 °C indicated maleic anhydride based polyester is thermally more stable compared to the adipic acid based polyester. The mechanism of degradation of these polyesters is discussed.     

Five-coordinate pentafluorobenzothiolate osmium(IV) complexes [Os(SC6F5)4(P(C6H4X-4)3)] (X = OCH3, CH3, F, Cl or CF3): Solid and solution structural characterization

The reactions of OsO₄ with excess of HSC₆F₅ and P(C₆H₄X-4)₃ in ethanol afford the five-coordinate compounds [Os(SC₆F₅)₄(P(C₆H₄X-4)₃)] where X = OCH₃ 1a and 1b, CH₃ 2a and 2b, F 3a and 3b, Cl 4a and 4b or CF₃ 5a and 5b. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of 1 to 5 exhibit a common pattern with an osmium center in a trigonal-bipyramidal coordination arrangement. The axial positions are occupied by mutually trans thiolate and phosphane ligands, while the remaining three equatorial positions are occupied by three thiolate ligands. The three pentafluorophenyl rings of the equatorial ligands are directed upwards, away from the axial phosphane ligand in the arrangement “3-up” (isomers a). On the other hand, ³¹P{¹H} and ¹⁹F NMR studies at room temperature reveal the presence of two isomers in solution: The “3-up” isomer (a) with the three C₆F₅-rings of the equatorial ligands directed towards the axial thiolate ligand, and the “2-up, 1-down” isomer (b) with two C₆F₅-rings of the equatorial ligands directed towards the axial thiolate and the C₆F₅-ring of the third equatorial ligand directed towards the axial phosphane. Bidimensional ¹⁹F–¹⁹F NMR studies encompass the two sub-spectra for the isomers a (“3-up”) and b (“2-up, 1-down”). Variable temperature ¹⁹F NMR experiments showed that these isomers are fluxional. Thus, the ¹⁹F NMR sub-spectra for the “2-up, 1-down” isomers (b) at room temperature indicate that the two S-C₆F₅ ligands in the 2-up equatorial positions have restricted rotation about their C–S bonds, but this rotation becomes free as the temperature increases. Room temperature ¹⁹F NMR spectra of 3 and 5 also indicate restricted rotation around the Os–P bonds in the “2-up, 1-down” isomers (b). In addition, as the temperature increases, the ¹⁹F NMR spectra tend to be consistent with an increased rate of the isomeric exchange. Variable temperature ³¹P{¹H} NMR studies also confirm that, as the temperature is increased, the a and b isomeric exchange becomes fast on the NMR time scale.     

Triorganotin(IV) Derivatives of Bidentate Schiff Bases: Synthesis and Spectral Studies

Abstract

Reaction of tri-n-butyl tin(IV) chloride with the sodium salt of Schiff bases [salicylidene-2-aminopyridine (sapH), salicylidene-2-amino-4-picoline (sapicH), salicylidene-2-methyl-1-aminobenzene (o-smabH), salicylidene-4-methyl-1-aminobenzene (p-smabH), salicylidene-1- aminobenzene (sabH), salicylidene-3-nitro-1-aminobenzene (snabH)] in MeOH-C₆H₆ mixture in 1:1 molar ratio produced complexes of the type [Buⁿ ₃Sn(sb)] (where sb = Schiff bases). All complexes obtained were characterized by elemental analysis (C, H, N, and Sn), infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR; ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn), and TOF-MS spectroscopic studies. These complexes were found to be monomeric, colored viscous liquids and are soluble in polar solvents (methanol, ethanol, DMSO, and DMF). On the basis of ¹¹⁹Sn NMR observations, a five coordination geometry around tin(IV) atom in these complexes is proposed tentatively.     

Synthesis, spectrophotometry, and X-ray diffraction studies of a new salt: p-xylylenebis(tetrahydrothiophenium) bis(triiodide)

A new salt, p-xylylenebis(tetrahydrothiophenium) bis(triiodide) C₁₆H₂₄I₆S₂, was prepared. The molecular structure of the salt was studied by X-ray diffraction; the factors that form the crystal packing represented by...Ct...I₃...I₃...Ct... type chains (Ct is cation) were identified. The stability of p-xylylenebis(tetrahydrothiophenium) diiodochlorides and triiodides was estimated by spectrophotometry using the average iodine number function .

Co(III) complexes of the type [(L)Co(O2CO)] (L = tripodal tetraamine ligand): Synthesis,structure, DFT calculations and Co NMR

The syntheses and characterisation of the Co(III) complexes [(L)Co(O₂CO)]ClO₄ (L = a tripodal tetraamine ligand = baep, abap, uns-penp, dppa, trpn) are reported. Geometric isomers are possible for all but the trpn complex, owing to the non-equivalence of the three arms on the tripodal ligand, and both NMR and X-ray crystallography are used to identify the single isomer formed. X-ray crystal structures of the complexes [(L)Co(O₂CO)]ClO₄ · xH₂O (L = baep, x = 0.5; L = abap, x = 0; L = uns-penp, x = 1; L = dppa, x = 0; L = trpn, x = 1) are reported; little variation is observed in the geometry of the carbonate chelate ring while significant lengthening of bonds and expansion of angles involving the cobalt ion occurs as the number of six-membered chelate rings in the complex cations increases. ⁵⁹Co NMR chemical shift data for the complexes show the expected linear relationship between λ_max, the wavelength of the lowest energy d–d transition, and γ, the magnetogyric ratio of the ⁵⁹Co nucleus. An excellent correlation between Δ, the d orbital splitting parameter, and δ(⁵⁹Co) also exists for these complexes. Rate data for the acid hydrolysis of [(L)Co(O₂CO)]⁺ (L = uns-penp, dppa) in 1.0 M HClO₄ differ by two orders of magnitude, and this is attributed to the differing steric accessibility of the endo O atoms in each complex. DFT calculations on the complexes reproduce the isomeric preferences, UV–Vis and ⁵⁹Co NMR spectroscopic data well, provided that solvent effects are included.     

Bis(Tetramethylselenophosphoramidoyl) Methylamine Complexes of Cd(Ii) and Zn(Ii): Synthesis and Multinuclear (31P, 77Se,and 113Cd) Nmr Characterization in Solution

Abstract

Five new complexes ZnL₂(ClO₄)₂ (1), CdL₂(ClO₄)₂ (2), CdL₂(BF₄)₂ (3), CdLCl₂ (4), and CdL(NO₃)₂ (5) [L = ((Me₂N)₂PSe)₂NMe] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (IR) and multinuclear (³¹P, ⁷⁷Se, and ¹¹³Cd), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se NMR data showed that the title ligand is coordinated in a bidentate fashion to the metal center via its both P=Se groups. The solution structure of the cadmium complexes was further confirmed by its ¹¹³Cd NMR spectra, which displayed a quintuplet for the perchlorate complex and a triplet for each of the nitrate and chloride complexes, respectively due to coupling with four (two ligands) and two (one ligand) equivalent phosphorus nuclei, consistent with a four-coordinate tetrahedral geometry for the cadmium center. The results are discussed and compared with the corresponding oxo and thio analogues.     

Alkyldiamine bis(selenocyanato)cadmium(II) complexes: Synthesis, Cd, Se, N and C NMR spectroscopy and X-ray structure of a 2D metal-organic framework

Complexes of cadmium(II)-selenocyanate with several alkyldiamine ligands have been synthesized and characterized by IR, ¹¹³Cd, ⁷⁷Se, ¹⁵N and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The X-ray structure of the complex [Cd(SeCN)₂-en] reveals two non-equivalent metal ion centers, both with a distorted octahedral geometry. The combined bridging modes of selenocyanate and ethylenediamine with the blocking mode of a chelating ethylenediamine generate a 2D metal-organic framework.
