Solvatochromism and piezochromism of pentacyanoferrates(II) and of mixed valence iron(II)—iron(III) and ruthenium(II)—ruthenium(III) species

Pressure effects on the MLCT bands of the pyrazine- and 4-cyanopyridine-pentacyanoferrate(II) anions have been established. The relation of these piezochromic effects to the solvatochromism of each complex is put into the correlation between these parameters developed for other d⁶ ternary complexes. The conformance of piezochromic and solvatochromic efrects on MMCT bands for diiron and diruthenium mixed valence complexes to this correlation is examined.

DNA-binding and photocleavage studies of metallofluorescein–porphyrin complexes of zinc(II) and copper(II)

The DNA-binding behaviors of the fluorescein?Cporphyrinatozinc(II) complex Zn(Fl-PPTPP) (Fl-PPTPP?=?5-(4-fluoresceinpropyloxy)phenyl-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin) and fluorescein?Cporphyrinatocopper(II) complex Cu(Fl-PPTPP) with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) were investigated by UV?CVis absorption titrations, fluorescence spectra, viscosity measurements, thermal denaturation and circular dichroism. The results suggest that both complexes interact with CT-DNA by intercalation. In addition, their photocleavage reactions with pBR322 supercoiled plasmid DNA were investigated. Both complexes exhibit significant DNA cleavage activity, and singlet oxygen may play an important role in these reactions.     

4,4′-Bipyridine complexes of molybdenum(II) and tungsten(II)

Treatment of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with two equivalents of 4,4-bipyridine (4,4-bipy) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature gave the MeCN displaced products, [MI₂(CO)₃(4,4-bipy-N)₂] (1) and (2). Equimolar amounts of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] and L (L = PPh₃, AsPh₃ or SbPh₃) react to give [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)L], which when reacted in situ with 4,4-bipy yield the new complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃(4,4-bipy-N)L] (3)–(8). Reaction of equimolar quantities of [WI₂(CO)(NCMe)( ²-RC₂R)₂] (R = Me or Ph) and 4,4-bipy gave the new bis(alkyne) complexes, [WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N)( ²-RC₂R)₂] (9) and (10). Treatment of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with two equivalents of (9) or (10) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature affords the bimetallic complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃{WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N,N)( ²-RC₂R)₂}₂] (11)–(14). Equimolar quantities of [MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)(PPh₃)] (prepared in situ) and (9) or (10), react to give the 4,4-bipy-bridged complexes, [MI₂(CO)₃{WI₂(CO)(4,4-bipy-N,N)( ²-RC₂R)₂}(PPh₃)] (15)–(18). All the new complexes, (1)–(18) were characterised by elemental analysis (C, H and N), i.r. and ¹H-n.m.r. spectroscopy.     

β-diketone complexes of manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and palladium(II)

Summary The reactions of manganese(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) acetates (1 mole) with antipyrine-4-azo--ethylcyanoacetate (HL¹) and antipyrine-4-azo--acetylacetone (HL²) (1 mole) produce complexes of the M(L)₂ type. K₂PdCl₄ (1 mole) reacts with HL¹ and HL² (1 mole) to yield complexes of the general formula PdLCl, the ligands behaving as monobasic tridentates. The electronic spectral and magnetic data show the complexes to be high-spin octahedral, whereas the palladium(II) complexes are diamagnetic square planar. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, conductance measurements and i.r. and electronic spectra as well as magnetic susceptibility measurements and thermal (t.g.a. and d.t.a.) analysis.Nuclear Material Authority.     

Synthesis and characterization of sterically encumbered β-ketoiminate complexes of iron(II) and zinc(II)

The synthesis, structure, and spectroscopic signatures of a series of four-coordinate iron(II) complexes of β-ketoiminates and their zinc(II) analogues are presented. An unusual five-coordinate iron(II) triflate with three oxygen bound protonated β-ketoimines is also synthesized and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals that the deprotonated bis(chelate)metal complexes are four-coordinate with various degrees of distortion depending on the degree of steric bulk and the electronics of the metal center. Each of the high-spin iron(II) centers exhibits multiple electronic transitions including ligand π to π*, metal-to-ligand charge transfer, and spin-forbidden d-d bands. The (1)H NMR spectra of the paramagnetic high-spin iron(II) centers are assigned on the basis of chemical shifts, longitudinal relaxation times (T(1)), relative integrations, and substitution of the ligands. The electrochemical studies support variations in the ligand strength. Parallel mode EPR measurements for the isopropyl substituted ligand complex of iron(II) show low-field resonances (g > 9.5) indicative of complex aggregation or crystallite formation. No suitable solvent system or glassing mixture was found to remedy this phenomenon. However, the bulkier diisopropylphenyl substituted ligand exhibits an integer spin signal consistent with an isolated iron(ii) center [S = 2; D = -7.1 ± 0.8 cm(-1); E/D = 0.1]. A tentative molecular orbital diagram is assembled.     

Six-Nuclear Complexes of Platinum(II) and Palladium(II) with Mercamine and β-Mercaptoethanol

The platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes [Pt₆(SCH₂CH₂NH₂)₈]Cl₄ and [Pd₆(SCH₂CH₂OH)₈ Cl₄· 5H₂O with mercamine and β-mercaptoethanol, respectively, were synthesized. It was found on the basis of the comparison of IR and X-ray electron spectra of the ligands and complexes, and also of the data of X-ray diffraction analysis that the bidentate coordination of ligands through sulfur and nitrogen atoms is realized in the platinum(II) complex. In the palladium(II) complex β-mercaptoethanol is coordinated in a mixed-mode type. In both complexes sulfur atoms of the ligands occupy a bridging position.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Complexes of Copper(II), Nickel(II) and Cobalt(II) with vic-Dioximes Bearing N''-p-Aminobenzoyl Benzaldehyde Hydrazone

Six different arylhydrazone derivatives of p-aminobenzoic hydrazide of vic-dioximes were synthesized by reaction of chloroglyoxime and dichloroglyoxime with N＇-p-aminobenzoyl benzaldehyde, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-methoxybenzaldehyde hydrazones, respectively. Metal-ligand （1 ： 2） complexes of vic-dioxime derivatives with Cu（Ⅱ）, Ni（Ⅱ） and Co（Ⅱ） were prepared from corresponding metal acetates. The ligands and their complexes were characterized on the basis of elemental analyses and spectral data. The complexing abilities of these new vic-dioximes toward transition metals of Co（Ⅱ）, Cu（Ⅱ）, Ni（Ⅱ）, Zn（Ⅱ）, Cd（Ⅱ）, Mn（Ⅱ） and Cr（Ⅲ） were determined by solid-liquid extraction studies.     

Complexes of N-aroyl-N′-thiobenzohydrazide with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II)

Summary New potential tetradentate ligands, N-benzoyl-N-thiobenzohydrazide (H₂BTBH) and N-salicyl-N-thiobenzohydrazide (H₂SBTH) have been prepared and characterized. Their complexes with Co^II, Ni^II and Zn^II have been prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and u.v.-vis., i.r. and ¹H-n.m.r. spectral studies. The bonding and stereochemistries of the complexes are discussed. H₂BTBH, H₂SBTH and the complexes have been screened towards a number of bacteria.     

Palladium(II) and Platinum(II) Complexes of N-Phenyl- and N-Ethyl-N′-pyrimidin-2-ylthiourea

Palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes of N-ethyl-N′-pyrimidin-2-ylthiourea(HL¹) and N-phenyl-N′-pyrimidin-2-ylthiourea (HL²) have been prepared, and the complexes [M(HL)Cl₂], [Pt(L)₂], [Pd(HL¹)₂]Cl₂, and [Pd(L²)₂] (where M = Pd^II or Pt^II) were characterized. The spectroscopic data are consistent with coordination of thioureas as neutral or monoanionic ligands to Pd^II and Pt^II through S and a pyrimidine-N. The IR spectra show shifts of CS and pyrimidine ring stretch bands to lower and higher frequencies, respectively. The ¹H NMR spectra differentiate between H(4′) and H(6′) resonances and indicate downfield shifts for all protons of pyrimidine [H(4′), H(5′), and H(6′)], two resonances for two N?H protons for complexes containing the neutral ligand (HL), and only one N?H proton chemical shift for complexes containing the monoanion (L). ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of pyrimidine carbons are correlated with the type of bonding between Pd^II or Pt^II and pyrimidine-N. The magnetic susceptibilities suggest a diamagnetic planar structure for all complexes.

A new mixed-ligand complex, Cd(S₂CN(C₄H₉)_{2 2})₂(2,2′-Bipy), was synthesized. A polycrystal X-ray diffraction analysis was performed (DRON-3M and DRON-UM1 diffractometers, CuK_α radiation, Ni filter) and the crystal structure was determined [Enraf-Nonius CAD-4 automatic diffractometer, MoK_α radiation, 2440 nonzero independent reflections, 153 refined structural parameters, R is 0.11 for I>2σ(I)]. Crystal data for C₂₈H₄₄CdN₄S₄ : a = 28.716(4), b = 6.848(6), c = 17.188(2) Å, space group Pcca, V-3380.2(7) ų, Z = 4, M = 679.42, dcaU.= 1.335 g/cm3. The structure consists of monomeric molecules in which the cadmium atom has a distorted octahedral environment. The polycrystal diffraction analysis revealed that the complex is isostructural with the defined complex Zn(S₂CN(C₄Hg)₂)₂(2,2′-Bipy). A crystal-chemical search on metal dialkyldithiocarbamates in the Cambridge Structural Database was accomplished and isostructural pairs of Zn and Cd metal complexes were found.     

Potentiometric investigation of ternary complexes of nickel(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) ions with β-alaninehydroxamic acid and ethylenediamine

Summary The formation constants of mixed ligand complexes of M^II (M = Ni, Zn or Cd) with -alaninehydroxamic acid (-Alaha) as primary ligand (A) and ethylenediamine (en) as secondary ligand (B) have been determined potentiometrically [298 K, = 0.2 (KCl)]. The formation constants for binary systems of -alaninehydroxamic acid and ethylenediamine were determined under identical experimental conditions. The pH-titration data were analysed using the SUPERQUAD computer program. The relative stability of each ternary complex was compared to that of its corresponding binary complex in terms of log X values.

Four new substituted 4,4-bis(alkylaminoisonitrosoacetyl)diphenylmethanes (ligands) have been prepared from 4,4-methylenebis(phenylglyoxylohydroximoyl chloride) and the corresponding amines. The Ni^II, Cu^II and Co^II complexes of these ligands were prepared and their structures were identified using AAS, i.r., ¹H-n.m.r. spectral data, elemental analyses and magnetic susceptibility measurements.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of complexes of manganese(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) isothiocyanates with ?-caprolactam

The possibility of ?-caprolactam (CPL) to coordinate to manganese(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) rhodanides has been investigated. New complexes trans-[M(CPL)₄(NCS)₂], where M = Mn (I), Co (II), and Ni (III), have been synthesized. The complexes have been studied by chemical analysis and IR spectroscopy. According to X-ray diffraction, complexes are isostructural to each other and crystallize in monoclinic space group P2₁/c, Z = 2. For I: a = 6.9457(2) ?, b = 17.7751(6) 0A, c = 12.8999(4) 0A, ?? = 104.2670(10)°, V = 1543.51(8) ?³, ??_calc = 1.342 g/cm³, R ₁ = 0.0426. For II: a = 6.8925(2) ?, b = 17.8189(8) ?, c = 12.7278(6) ?, ?? = 104.421(2)°, V = 1513.93(11) ?³, ??_calc = 1.377 g/cm³, R ₁ = 0.0280.

Features of сhitosan interaction with copper(II) and cobalt(II) tetrasulfophthalocyanines

The interaction of chitosan with copper(II) and cobalt(II) tetrasulfophthalocyanines is studied by spectral methods. The main parameters of binding of chitosan to anionic metal phthalocyanines are determined by Scatchard analysis. It is found that the formation of the polymer complex is considerably contributed by donor?acceptor interactions between the coordinately unsaturated metal phthalocyanine and chitosan amino groups. Сhitosan reacts with a monomeric cobalt(II) tetrasulfophthalocyanine, whereas copper(II) tetrasulfophthalocyanine in its complex with chitosan remains in the dimeric state. The reaction centers responsible for the Cu(SO₃H)₄Pc)₂–chitosan and Co(SO₃H)₄Pc–chitosan complexes are revealed by means of IR spectroscopy.     

Antimicrobial studies of N - N ′-dicarboxydiethyloxamide and its Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes

Neutral complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) have been synthesized from the oxamide-based ligand derived from leucine and diethyloxalate. The structural features have been deduced from their microanalytical, IR, UV/Vis, mass, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data. The Co(II) and Ni(II) chelates have octahedral geometries and the Cu(II) chelate is a square-pyramidal geometry. The non-electrolytic and monomeric nature of the complexes is shown by their magnetic susceptibility and low conductance data. The biological activities of the ligand and its metal chelates against gram-positive and negative bacteria and fungi are also reported. All the compounds are antimicrobially active and show higher activity than the free ligand.     

Synthesis and characterization of β-diketonato- and phenoxoderivatives of mono(dizirconium-ennea-isopropoxy)copper(II)

Summary -Diketonato- and phenoxo-derivatives of mono(dizirconium-ennea-isopropoxy) copper(II), [Cu{Zr₂(OPr-i)₉}-(RCOCHCOR)] and [Cu{Zr₂(OPr-i)₉}(-OAr)], have been prepared by the interaction of K(RCOCHCOR) or KOAr (1 mol) [R = R = Me (1a); R = R = CF₃ (1b); R = Me, R = CF₃ (1c); OAr = 2,6-Me₂C₆H₃O (2a), 3,5-Me₂C₆H₃O (2b), p-ClC₆H₄O (2c)] with [Cu{Zr₂-(OPr-i) ₉}(-Cl)] (1 mol) in PhH. Alcohol interchanges of the derivative [Cu{Zr₂(OPr-i)₉}(-Cl)] have also been studied. These new compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, i.r., electronic and e.s.r. spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The studies indicate a distorted octahedral geometry around Cu^II.     

Copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes of substituted β-hydroxyiminoanilides

Complexes of the general formula, ML₂ [M = Cu^II, Ni^II, Co^II and OV^IV; L = 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-hydroxyimino-N-(4-X-phenyl)-l-phenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide (X = H, Me, OMe, Cl)] have been prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, magnetic moments and i.r., e.p.r. and electronic spectra. These metal complexes contain the N₄ chromophore with the ligand coordinating through nitrogens of the azomethine and deprotonated anilide functions. C.v. measurements indicate that the copper(II) complexes are quasi-reversible in acetonitrile solution. Square planar and square pyramidal structures are assigned respectively to the copper(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes, whereas tetrahedral geometry is assigned to the nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes. Deprotonated anilide nitrogen is involved in coordination and the presence of an electron-donating group para to the anilide function decreases the ΔE values of the d–d transitions while the value is found to increase when electron-withdrawing groups are substituted. Line spacing in the e.p.r. spectra of the copper(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes increases when methyl group is para to the anilide group, and decreases when this group is replaced by methoxy or chloro. The ν(C–N) of the anilide group and the ν(C-N) of the azomethine function of the oxime metal complexes are metal-sensitive and the blue shift for the above stretching frequencies follows the order: copper(II) > oxovanadium(IV) > nickel(II) ≈ cobalt(II).

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Zinc(II) and Nickel(II) Complexes Involving Reduced Nitroxide Radicals

1 INTRODUCTION The synthesis of new molecular magnetic mate- rials that combine transition metal ions and pure organic radicals as ligating sites has attracted much more attention in the last few years[1~4]. Nitronyl ni- troxide radicals, independently or in combination with metal ions, have been one of the most studied systems in molecular magnetism for understanding the radical-radical or metal-radical interactions as well as for synthesizing organic ferromagnets and metal-radical magne…     

Synthesis of Co–Pd alloys by co-electroreduction of aquachloro-cobalt(II) and palladium(II) complexes

The work presents results of the studies on the synthesis of Co–Pd alloys from acid electrolytes containing chloride ions. The main aim of the tests was to identify reactions responsible for alloy formation and to determine an influence of the electrolysis parameters, i.e. working electrode potential, electrolyte composition and temperature on the composition of the resulted alloy coatings. Electrochemical investigations were performed by applying cyclic voltammetry (CV) combined with electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). The electrolyte composition was selected based on a thermodynamic analysis and spectrophotometric tests which were described in our previous papers [1, 2]. They allowed determination of equilibrium distribution of the metals complex forms and a stability analysis of the electrolyte. The alloys were synthesized within the potential range from ?0.7 to ?1.1 V. The tests indicate a possibility of alloys synthesis already at the potential range 相似文献
