Synthesis and characterization of novel carbene complexes of phosphorus(V) fluorides with potential liquid-crystalline properties

A series of novel push–pushI and push–pullII carbene-stabilized complexes of phosphorus(V) fluorides bearing substituents with liquid-crystalline properties were synthesized by the oxidative addition of difluoroamines to phosphorus(III) halides. These octahedral complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis.     

From neutral iminophosphoranes to multianionic phosphazenates. The coordination chemistry of imino-aza-P(V) ligands

This review deals with the chemistry and coordination behaviour of imino-aza phosphorus(V) ligands focussing on s- and p-block as well as Group 11 and 12 metal complexes. Imino phosphorus(V) ligands contain one or more terminal RNP-units, which include iminophosphoranes R₃PNR′, monoanionic diiminophosphinates [R₂P(NR′)₂]⁻, dianionic triiminophosphonates [RP(NR′)₃]²⁻ and trianionic tetraiminophosphates [P(NR′)₄]³⁻. Aza-phosphorus(V) ligands feature bridging PNP units, which include cyclic and polymeric phosphazenes [R₂PN]_n. Imino-aza- phosphorus(V) ligands containing both imino and aza functions include linear diiminodiphosphazenates [N{R₂P(NR′)₂}₂]⁻ and multianionic poly(imino) cyclophosphazeantes such as [N₄{RP(NR′)}₄]⁴⁻ and [N₃{P(NR′)₂}₃]⁶⁻. Imino-aza phosphorus(V) ligands are assembled of three basic building blocks: the cationic tetravalent phosphonium centre (P), the anionic divalent amido function (N) and the terminally arranged R-group. The overall negative charge Z of the resulting ligand system is equal to the difference between the number of P and the number of N-centres: Z=n(P)n(N). Imino-aza phosphorus(V) ligands are electron rich N-donor ligands which co-ordinate via both N(imino) and N(aza) functions and have been applied in numerous metal complexes in order to stabilise low coordination numbers, unusual oxidation states and bonding modes or serve as ligands in homogeneous catalysis. The R-group provides both steric bulk and solubility in non-polar solvents. Multianionic phosphazenates feature a polydentate ligand surface, which facilitates an extremely high metal load. PN units of iminophosphoranes and phosphazenes have acceptor properties and enhance the acidity of α-alkyl and ortho-aryl protons. Deprotonation of P-alkyl and P-aryl iminophosphoranes give ligand systems featuring C,N chelating sites, which are also discussed.     

Electrostatic MO-O (methanol) bond in benzyltriphenylphosphonium trans-tetrachloro(methanol)oxomolybdate(V)

Benzyltriphenylphosphonium trans-tetrachloro(methanol)oxomolybdate(V) has been obtained from methanol suspension of benzyltriphenylphosphonium molybdate(VI) saturated with hydrogen chloride. The crystal structure comprises discrete trans-tetrachloro(methanol)oxomolybdate(V) anions and benzyltriphenylphosphonium cations. The anion has distorted octahedral geometry of central atom with visible trans influence imposed by short Mo-O bond (1.659(2) Å). The methanol O atom is bonded to the Mo atom, the bond being mostly electrostatic in character. A comparison with previously reported structures indicates that the methanol methyl moiety can switch between different positions with respect to the chloride ligands.     

Formation and Crystal Structure of 4,4'-Oxybis(2,6-bis(dimethylamino)-4H-1,3,5,4-thiadiazaphosphinine 4-Oxide)

Abstract

The reaction of P₄S₁₀ with dimethyl cyanamide as solvent yields a complex mixture of products, from which the new compound 4,4′-oxybis(2,6-bis(dimethylamino)-4H-1,3,5,4-thiadiazaphosphinine 4-oxide) (1) was isolated. In this pyrophosphate derivative, the phosphorus atoms are part of the, otherwise rarely encountered, 1,3,5,4-thiadiaza-phosphinine ring. The molecular structure of the new compound was elucidated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, showing an almost planar thiadiazaphosphinine ring and a cis-like arrangement of the heterocycles at the two phosphorus atoms.     

Synthesis of intermediate sitting-atop complexes (i-SAT) from the reaction between free base meso-tetraarylporphyrins and phosphorus(III) chloride in solvent free media

The reaction of meso-tetraarylporphyrins (H₂tap) with phosphorus(III) chloride has been studied in the solid state. The reaction products are intermediate sitting-atop (i-SAT) complexes in which two pyrrolenine nitrogen atoms of the porphyrins act as electron donors to the phosphorus(III) atoms and two protons on the pyrrole nitrogen atoms remain. These new complexes have been characterized by (¹H, ³¹P, ¹³C) NMR, FT-IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis and electrical conductometry.     

Carbon-halogen bond activation by a structurally constrained phosphorus(III) platform

The σ-bond activation by main group element has received enormous attention from theoretical and experimental chemists. Here, the reaction of C–X (X = Cl, Br, I) bonds in benzyl and allyl halides with a pincer-type phosphorus(III) species was reported. A series of structurally robust phosphorus(V) compounds were formed via the formal oxidative addition reactions of C–X bonds to the phosphorus(III) center. Density functional theory calculations show that the nucleophilic addition process is more favorable than the direct oxidative addition mechanism. Isomerization of bent structures of phosphorus(III) compound to poorly nucleophilic compounds to undergo further C–X bond activation can be rationalized by frontier molecule orbital analysis. This study not only provides a deep understanding of the reactivity of phosphorus(III) species but also demonstrates a potential of main group elements for the small-molecule activation.     

Speciation of arsenic(III) and arsenic(V) by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry coupled with preconcentration system

A novel and simple flow-based method was developed for the simultaneous determination of As(III) and As(V) in freshwater samples. Two miniature columns with a solid phase anion exchange resin, placed on two 6-way valves were utilized for the solid-phase collection/concentration of arsenic(III) and arsenic(V), respectively. As(III) could be retained on the column after its oxidation to As(V) species with an oxidizing agent. The collected analytes were then sequentially eluted by 2 M nitric acid and introduced into ICP-AES. Potassium permanganate was examined as potential oxidizing agent for conversion of As(III) to As(V). The standard deviation of the analytical signals (peak height) for the replicate analysis (n = 5) of 0.5 μg l⁻¹ solution were 3 and 5% for As(III) and As(V), respectively. The limit of detection (3σ) for both As(III) and As(V) were 0.1 μg l⁻¹. The proposed system produced satisfactory results on the application to the direct analysis of inorganic arsenic species in freshwater samples.     

Phosphorus (V) porphyrin diaxially substituted with Leu-enkephalin

Synthesis of the first phosphorus (V) porphyrin-peptide conjugate was successfully accomplished. A biologically active peptide, leucine enkephalin, was constructed on the phosphorus atom of the 5,10,15,20-meso-tetraphenylporphinato dichlorophosphorus (V) chloride. The method involved solution phase peptide synthesis. The first C-terminal amino acid in the sequence of the peptide was axially attached to the porphyrin through a linker, 3-aminopropanol, and the remainder of leucine enkephalin was synthesized by subsequent additions of amino acids. Leucine enkephalin-P(V) porphyrin conjugate represents a new group of compounds, and its synthesis broadens potential applications of P(V) porphyrine, e.g. in photodynamic therapy.     

Thermal Analysis of Ba(II)–Sr(II) Cyclo-Tetraphosphates(V)

The synthesis of new inorganic pigments has been investigated with the goal of preparing heat stable and anticorrosive pigments. The synthesis is based on a thermal procedure making use of the reversible transformation of cyclo-tetraphosphates(V) to higher linear phosphates(V). New binary condensed phosphates were synthesized based on the results of thermal analysis. These compounds represent new environmentally-friendly special pigments. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Zum oxydativen Abbau von elementarem Phosphor,P4, mit CCl4 und 1,2-Dinucleophilen

On the Oxidative Degradation of Elemental Phosphorus, P₄, with CCl₄ and 1.2-Dinucleophiles In the presence of tertiary amins the interaction of elemental phosphorus with CCl₄ and bifunctionally protic nucleophiles such as 1.2-dioles, pyrocatechol, and 2-aminoalcohols leads to an oxidative degradation of P₄. Depending on the reaction conditions acyclic as well as cyclic and even spirocyclic phosphorus(III) and phosphorus(V) compounds are obtained in variable proportions. The formation of the phosphorus(V) spiro compounds exclusively occurs by oxidizing spirocyclic phosphorus(III) compounds in the way of the Atherton-Todd reaction. A procedure for preparing triethylammonium tris(o-phenylenedioxo)phosphate, 8 , directly from P₄, CCl₄, and pyrocatechol is given.     

Luminol Chemiluminescence with Heteropoly Acids and its Application to the Determination of Arsenate,Germanate, Phosphate and Silicate by Ion Chromatography

A flow-injection chemiluminescence (CL) method has been proposed for sensitive determination of arsenate, germanate, phosphate and silicate, after separation by ion chromatography (IC). The post-column detection system involved formation of heteropoly acid in a H₂SO₄ medium before the CL reaction with luminol in an NaOH medium. For separation, heteropoly acid formation and the CL detection reaction, pH requirements were not compatible. When present as a heteropoly acid complex with molybdenum(VI), ger- manium(IV) and silicon(IV) caused CL emission from oxidation of luminol, and such a CL oxidation of luminol was observed analogously for arsenic(V) and phosphorus(V) but with the addition of metavanadate ion to the acid solution of molybdate. Good sensitivity for the three analytes arsenic(V), ger- manium(IV) and phosphorus(V) could be given by a single set of reagent conditions, chosen carefully. Another set was suitable for determining phosphorus(V) and silicon(IV). The minimum detectable concentrations of arsenic(V), germanium(IV), phosphorus(V) and silicon(IV) were 10, 50, 1 and 10 μg l⁻¹, respectively. Linear calibrations for arsenic(V), germanium(IV), phosphorus(V) and silicon(IV) were established over the respective concentration ranges of 10–1000, 50–25000, 1–1000 and 50–1 μg l⁻¹. The proposed IC–CL method was successfully applied to analyses of a seaweed reference material, rice wine and water samples.     

Kinetics of oxidation of cysteine and captopril via Cs3[Mo(CN)8] and Cs3[W(CN)8]

The kinetics of the oxidation of cysteine and captopril via octacyanomolybdate(V) and octacyanotungstate(V) in a buffered acidic media (pH range 2.20–4.80) have been studied spectrophotometrically. The rate law for the oxidation is: Rate = k [RSH] [Ox] [H⁺]⁻¹, where RSH is cysteine or captopril and Ox is Cs₃[Mo(CN)₈] or Cs₃[W(CN)₈]. The activation parameters (E_a, ΔH^#, ΔG^#, ΔS^#) for the oxidation of cysteine and captopril via Cs₃[Mo(CN)₈] or Cs₃[W(CN)₈] have been determined. The results indicate that Cs₃[Mo(CN)₈] is more reactive than Cs₃[W(CN)₈] as an oxidizing agent. Effects of pH, ionic strength, temperature, dielectric constant of the reaction medium and copper(II) ions on the oxidation rate have been studied. Mechanisms for the oxidation of cysteine to cystine and captopril to the corresponding disulfide have been proposed.     

A large series of isotypic Mo(V) diphosphates with a tunnel structure: From A(MoO)10(P2O7)8 with A=Ba, Sr, Ca, Cd, Pb to A(MoO)5(P2O7)4 with A=Ag, Li, Na, K

The single crystal structure of a series of nine isotypic Mo(V) diphosphates was determined from crystals with composition A²⁺(MoO)₁₀(P₂O₇)₈ (A=Ba, Sr, Ca, Cd, Pb) and A⁺(MoO)₅(P₂O₇)₄ (A=Ag, Li, Na, K). The structure of those phosphates, built up of corner sharing MoO₆ octahedra, MoO₅ tetragonal pyramids and P₂O₇ diphosphates groups, forms eight-sided tunnels as described by Lii et al. for A=Ag. New features are evidenced: (1) existence of two orientations, up and down along b for the MoO₅ pyramids; (2) maximum insertion rate of the divalent cations which is twice less than that of the univalent cations; (3) different behavior of the series “Pb, Sr, Ba, Li, Na, K” which exhibits only one kind of site for the inserted cation, compared to the “Cd, Ca, Ag” series for which two kinds of sites are observed; (4) off-centering of the A-site cations with respect to the tunnel axis; and (5) unusually high thermal factors along the tunnel axis, but absence of ionic conductivity.     

Darstellung und Charakterisierung von Chrom(V)- und Mangan(V)- nitridophthalocyaninen(1-) und -(2-): [MNPc(1-)]+; und [MNPc(2-)] (M=Cr,Mn)

Preparation and Characterization of Chromium of Chromium(V)- and Manganese(V)- nitridophthalocyanines(1-) and -(2-): [MNPc(1-)]⁺ and [MNPc(2-)] (M=Cr, Mn) Nitridophthalocyaninatochromium(V), [CrNPc(2-)], is prepared by oxidation of [Cr(OH)₂PC(2-)] with chlorine in the presence of excess ammonia as a paramagnetic (μ_eff = 1,99 B.M.), Microcrystalline blue powder. Through chemically very stable it reacts as well as the isostructural nitridophthalocyaninatomanganese(V) with bromine or concentrated nitric acid giving ring- oxidized darkblue nitridophthalocyaninatomental(poly)bromides or -nitrates, [MNPc(1-)]X (M=Cr, Mn; X=Br_y, NO₃; y≈?2). The nitrido-metal stretching vibration (ν(N?M)) is independent of the oxidation state of the Pc-ligands at ca. 1017 cm^?1 for the chromium and at ca. 1055 cm^?1 for the manganesenitridophthalocyanines. ν(N?Mn) is resonance Raman (r.r.) enhanced, ν(N?Cr) not. The characteristic differences in the u.v. -vis., f.i.r./m.i.r. and r.r. spectra of [MNPc(2-)] and [MNPc(1-)⁺ and the influence of aggregation of phthalocyanine-radicals are discussed.     

Selective synthesis of sulfoxides and sulfones by tantalum(V) catalyzed oxidation of sulfides with 30% hydrogen peroxide

The reaction of sulfides with 30% hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by tantalum(V) chloride in acetonitrile, i-propanol, or t-butanol selectively provided the corresponding sulfoxides in high yields. On the other hand, the reaction of sulfides with 30% hydrogen peroxide-catalyzed by tantalum(V) chloride or tantalum(V) ethoxide in methanol effectively gave the sulfones.     

Solvent effects on oxygen atom transfer reaction between manganese(V)-oxo corrole and alkene

Pseudo-first order reaction rate constants of 5,10,15-tris（pentafluorophenyl）corrole Mn（V）-oxo (F₁₅CMn（V）-oxo),5,15-bis（pentafluorophenyl）-10-（phenyl）corrole Mn（V）-oxo(F₁₀CMn（V）-oxo),5,15- bis（phenyl）-10-（pentafluorophenyl）corrole Mn（V）-oxo（F₅CMn（V）-oxo） and 5,10,15-tris（phenyl）corrole Mn（V）-oxo（F₀CMn（V）-oxo） with a series of alkene substrates in different solvents were determined by UV-vis spectroscopy.The results indicated that the oxygen atom transfer pathway between Mn（V）-oxo corrole and alkene is solvent-dependent.     

全钒液流电池高浓度下V(IV)/V(V)的电极过程研究

采用循环伏安、低速线性扫描和阻抗技术, 以石墨为电极, 研究了V(IV)/V(V)在较高浓度下的电极过程. 结果表明, 采用2.0 mol•L-1 的V(IV)溶液时, H2SO4浓度低于2 mol•L-1, V(IV)/V(V)反应极化大, 可逆性差, 表现为电化学和扩散混合控制; H2SO4浓度增至2 mol•L-1以上, V(IV)/V(V)反应的可逆性提高, 转为扩散控制, 且增加H2SO4浓度有利于阻抗的降低; 但H2SO4浓度超过3 mol•L-1, 溶液的粘度和传质阻力大, 阻抗反而增大. 在3 mol•L-1的H2SO4中, 随着V(IV)浓度的增加, 体系的可逆性和动力学改善, 阻抗减小; 但V(IV)浓度超过2.0 mol•L-1, 较高的溶液粘度导致溶液的传质阻力迅速增加, V(IV)/ V(V)的电化学性能衰减, 阻抗增大. 因此, 综合考虑电极反应动力学和电池的能量密度两因素, V(IV)溶液的最佳浓度为1.5～2.0 mol•L-1, H2SO4浓度为3 mol•L-1.     

A first methodical approach to salts with unsymmetrical fluorophenyl(pentafluorophenyl)difluoroiodonium(V) cations [Rf(RF)IF2] (Rf=x-FC6H4, x=2, 3, 4; RF=C6F5)

A promising approach to the unknown type of [Ar′(Ar)IF₂]X salts is offered. x-FC₆H₄IF₄ (x=2, 3, 4) reacts with C₆F₅BF₂ in CH₂Cl₂ and forms [x-FC₆H₄(C₆F₅)IF₂][BF₄] salts in good yields. For [4-FC₆H₄(C₆F₅)IF₂][BF₄] the fluoro-oxidizer property is shown in reactions with weakly reducing agents like E(C₆F₅)₃ (E=P, As, Sb, Bi) and ArI (Ar=4-FC₆H₄, C₆F₅). The fluorine/aryl substitution method is also applied to the synthesis of [(4-FC₆H₄)₂IF₂][BF₄], an example with two identical aryl groups in the difluoroiodonium(V) moiety.     

Investigation on Concentrated Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） Redox Reaction by Rotating Disc Voltammetry

The kinetic characteristics of the concentrated Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） couple have been studied at a glassy carbon electrode in sulfuric acid using rotating-disc electrode and cyclic voltammetry. The kinetics of the Ⅴ（Ⅳ）/Ⅴ（Ⅴ） redox couple reaction was found to be electrochemically quasi-reversible with the slower kinetics for the Ⅴ（Ⅴ） reduction than that for the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） oxidation. And, dependence of diffusion coefficients and kinetic parameters of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） species on the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 concentration was investigated. It is shown that the concentration of active species Ⅴ（Ⅳ） should be over 1 mol·L^-1 for the redox flow battery application. Further, with increasing the Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 concentration, the diffusion coefficients of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） were gradually reduced whereas its kinetics was improved considerably, especially in the case of Ⅴ（Ⅳ） and H2SO4 up to 2 and 4 mol·L^-1.
