The [Ni(S₃N)(CN)₂]- anion is planar, Ni being coordinated by one S₃N^? chelate ligand and by two CN^? ions. From the reaction of CuCI₂, S₇NH, and [Ph₄As]OH result the salts [Ph₄As][Cu(S₃N)₂] or [Ph₄As][Cu(S₃N)Cl], depending on the reaction conditions.

Cu^I is coordinated by one S₃N^? chelate ligand and one C1^?, resulting in a trigonal planar environment.     

Crystal Structures of (PPh3)2Pd(N3)2, (AsPh3)2Pd(N3)2, (2‐Chloropyridine)2Pd(N3)2, [(AsPh4)2][Pd2(N3)4Cl2], [(PNP)2][Pd(N3)4], [(AsPh4)2][Pt(N3)4] · 2 H2O,and [(AsPh4)2][Pt(N3)6]

The crystal structures of the monomeric palladium(II) azide complexes of the type L₂Pd(N₃)₂ (L = PPh₃ ( 1 ), AsPh₃ ( 2 ), and 2‐chloropyridine ( 3 )), the dimeric [(AsPh₄)₂][Pd₂(N₃)₄Cl₂] ( 4 ), the homoleptic azido palladate [(PNP)₂][Pd(N₃)₄] ( 5 ) and the homoleptic azido platinates [(AsPh₄)₂][Pt(N₃)₄] · 2 H₂O ( 6 ) and [(AsPh₄)₂][Pt(N₃)₆] ( 7 ) were determined by X‐ray diffraction at single crystals. 1 and 2 are isotypic and crystallize in the triclinic space group P1. 1 , 2 and 3 show terminal azide ligands in trans position. In 4 the [Pd₂(N₃)₄Cl₂]^2– anions show end‐on bridging azide groups as well as terminal chlorine atoms and azide ligands. The anions in 5 and 6 show azide ligands in equal positions with almost local C_4h symmetry at the platinum and palladium atom respectively. The metal atoms show a planar surrounding. The [Pt(N₃)₆]^2– anions in 7 are centrosymmetric (idealized S₆ symmetry) with an octahedral surrounding of six nitrogen atoms at the platinum centers.     

Comparison of the Complexation of Open-Chain and Cyclic N2S2 Ligands with Cu+ and Cu2+

The complexation properties of the open-chain N₂S₂ ligands 1–4 are described and compared to those of analogous N₂S₂ macrocycles 5–7 . With Cu²⁺, the open-chain ligands give complexes with the stoichiometry CuL²⁺ and CuLOH⁺, the stabilities and absorption spectra of which have been determined. The ligand field exerted by these ligands is relatively constant and independent of the length of the chain. With Cu⁺, the species CuLH, CuLH²⁺, and CuL⁺ were identified and their stabilities measured. The redox potentials calculated from the equilibrium constants and measured by cyclic voltammetry agree and lie between 250 and 280 mV against SHE. The comparison between open-chain and cyclic ligands shows that (1) a macrocyclic effect is found for Cu²⁺ but not for Cu⁺, (2) the ligand-field strength is very different for the two types of ligands, and (3) the redox potentials span a larger interval for the macrocyclic than for the open-chain complexes.

The β-form is orthorhombic, a = 9.333(2), b = 17.659(4), c = 23.950(6) Å, Z = 4. The structure of the metal complex is the same in the two modifications. One S₃N^? and one S₅^2? are coordinate as chelate ligands to Pd. From S₇NH, Pd(CN)₂, and XOH X = [(CH₃)₄N]⁺ and [(C₆H₅)₄P]⁺ the salts X[Pd(S₃N)(CN)₂] were formed.

Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of new unsymmetrical N2O2 Schiff bases derived from 3-(2-aminobenzylimino)-1-phenylbutan-1-ol: synthesis,structure, antibacterial properties,and electrochemistry

Two new N₂O₂ unsymmetrical Schiff bases, H₂L¹ = 3-[({o-[(E)-(o-hydroxyphenyl)methylideneamino]phenyl}methyl)imino]-1-phenyl-1-buten-1-ol and H₂L² = 3-[({o-[(E)-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)methylideneamino]phenyl}methyl)imino]-1-phenyl-1-buten-1-ol, and their copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes, [CuL¹] (1), [CuL²] (2), [NiL¹] (3), and [NiL²] (4), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic methods. The crystal structures of these complexes have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The coordination geometry around Cu(II) and Ni(II) centers is described as distorted square planar in all complexes with the CuN₂O₂ coordination more distorted than the Ni ones. The electrochemical studies of these complexes indicate a good correlation between the structural distortion and the redox potentials of the metal centers. The ligand and metal complexes were also screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity.

In order to study the interactions between the praseodymium cation (Pr³⁺) and the ligands magnetic measurements were carried out. The magnetic data were interpreted by ligand field calculations applying the angular overlap model.

Compound 1 : triclinic space group P$\bar{1}$ , a = 6.9695(6) Å, b = 13.8095(12) Å, c = 18.0354(17) Å, α = 98.367(11), β = 96.097(11) and γ = 101.281(11)°; compound 2 : monoclinic space group P2₁/m, a = 7.1668(5), b = 25.8986(14), c = 16.0436(11) Å, β = 96.847(8)°; compound 3 : monoclinic space group P2₁/n, a = 11.6194(9), b = 10.2445(5) Å, c = 27.3590(18) Å, β = 91.909(6)°; compound 4 : triclinic space group P$\bar{1}$ , a = 7.0743(6), b = 12.0846(11), c = 13.9933(14) Å, α = 114.723(10), β = 97.595(11), γ = 93.272(11)°. The main structural feature of the two atoms thick layered [Sb₈S₁₃]^2– anion in 1 are large nearly rectangular pores with dimensions 11.2 × 11.7 Å. The layers are stacked perpendicular to [100] to form tunnels being directed along [100]. In contrast to 1 the structure of 2 contains a [Sb₈S₁₃]^2– chain anion with Sb₁₂S₁₂ pores measuring about 8.9 × 11.5 Å. Only if longer Sb–S distances are considered as bonding interactions a layered anion is formed. The chain anion [Sb₆S₁₀]^2– in compound 3 is unique and is constructed by corner‐sharing SbS₃ pyramids. Two symmetry‐related single chains consisting of alternating SbS₃ units and Sb₃S₃ rings are bound to Sb₄S₄ rings in chair conformation. Finally, in the structure of 4 the SbS₃ and SbS₄ moieties are joined corner‐linked to form a chain of alternating SbS₄ units and (SbS₃)₃ blocks. Neighboring chains are connected into sheets that contain relatively large Sb₁₀S₁₀ heterorings. The sheets are further connected by sulfur atoms generating four atoms thick double sheets.

Copper(II) Complexes with Chiral Diaminodiamido Ligands: Solution and Structural Studies

Abstract

Three diaminodiamido ligands (S,S)-N,N′-bis(prolyl)ethanediamine (ProNN-2), (S,S)-N,N′-bis(N-methylvalyl)ethanediamine (Me₂ValNN-2), and (S,S)-N,N′-bis(N-methylphenylalanyl)-ethanediamine (Me₂PheNN-2) were synthesised and their complex formation equilibria with copper(II) investigated in aqueous solution by potentiometry and, for ProNN-2, by electronic spectrophotometry. ProNN-2 forms the species [CuLH]³⁺, [Cu₂L₂]⁴⁺, [Cu₂L₂H_?2]²⁺ and [CuLH_?2], Me₂PheNN-2 forms the complexes [CuLH]³⁺, [Cu₂L₂H_?2]²⁺ and [CuLH_?2], whereas Me₂ValNN-2 forms the monomer [CuLH_?1]⁺ but not the dimer. The dimeric cation [Cu₂L₂H_?2]²⁺, of Me₂PheNN-2 has severe steric requirements, as demonstrated by the X-ray crystal structure of the complex [Cu₂L₂H_?2]Cl₂· 12H₂O, of the corresponding non-methylated ligand. Since copper(II) complexes of the ligands examined are used as additives to the mobile phase to perform chiral resolution of D,L-amino acids in RP-HPLC, the present results provide valuable clues to an understanding of the mechanism of the enantiomeric separation.     

Chiral Tetraamines Based on (S)-2-(Aminomethyl)pyrrolidine: Template synthesis and properties of copper(II) complexes

The template reaction of {bis[(S)-2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine]}copper(II) with formaldehyde, nitroethane, and base in MeOH yields optically pure {1,7-bis[(S)-pyrrolidin-2-yl]-4-methyl-4-nitro-2,6-diazaheptane}- copper(II) ([Cu((S,S)-mnppm)]²⁺) in high yield. The same reaction with rac-2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine is also described. Preparative details and spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of the Cu^II complexes and of the free ligands are reported and compared with structural, spectroscopic and electrochemical data of the Cu^II complex of the unsubstituted parent ligand 1,7-bis[(S)-pyrrolidin-2-yl]-2,6-diazaheptane (ppm). The crystal structure of [Cu(ppm)]Cl ClO₄ has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods.     

Metallchelate ungesättigter geminaler Dichalcogenoliganden mit gemischten S,Se-Ligatoren Kristall- und Molekülstruktur von Tetra-n-butylammonium-bis(1,1-dicyanoethylen-2,2-thioselenolato)nickelat(II), [(n-C4H9)4N]2[Ni(SSeC?C(CN)2)2]

Metal Chelates of Unsaturated Geminal Dichalcogeno Ligands Containing S as well as Se Ligators. Crystal and Molecular Structure of Tetra-n-butylammonium-bis(1,1-dicyanoethylene-2,2-thioselenolato)nickelate(II), [(n-C₄H₉)₄N]₂[Ni(SSeC? C(CN)₂)₂] Synthesis and properties of chelates of the thioseleno ligands 1,1-dicyanoethylene-2,2-thioselenolate (bis-chelates with Ni²⁺, Pd²⁺, Pt²⁺, Cu²⁺, Au³⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Se²⁺, Te²⁺, UO₂²⁺; tris-chelate mit Cr³⁺, Fe³⁺, Co³⁺, Rh³⁺, In³⁺; 1:1-chelate mit Cu⁺, Au⁺), cyanthioselenocarbimate (bis-chelates with Ni²⁺, Pd²⁺) and 0-β-methoxyethyl-thioselenocarbonate (bis-chelates with Ni²⁺, Pd²⁺, Pt²⁺, Zn²⁺; tris-chelate mit Cr³⁺, Co³⁺, Rh³⁺) are reported. The X-ray crystal structure of [(n-C₄H₉)₄N]₂[Ni(SSeC? C(CN)₂)₂] shows a planar NiS₂Se₂ arrangement. From the space group P2₁/c (a = 14,043(1) Å, b = 8.704(1) Å, c = 20.647(2) Å, β = 108.56(1)°) and Z = 2 follows a trans position of the thioseleno ligands. The same magnitude of the C–S and C–Se distance refers to a hindrance of the equalization of the bonding in the chelate. The structure is compared with those of similar compounds.     

Synthesis and metal-ion binding properties of new N2S4- and N2S5-donor macrocycles

Synthetic procedures for new N₂S₄- and N₂S₅-donor macrocycles (2 and 4) were given. The ligands were prepared by the reaction of NaBH₄ with the appropriate macrocyclic diamide in the presence of boron trifluoride ethyl etherate in dry tetrahydrofuran (THF). Solvent extraction method was used to evaluate metal-ion binding properties of the new ligands. The solvent extraction experiments suggested that the reduced macrocycles have Ag⁺ and Hg²⁺ selectivities compared to Pb²⁺, Co²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions. The extraction constants (log K _ex) and complex compositions were determined for Ag⁺ and Hg²⁺ complex of compound (4).     

Copper(II) Complexes with Ethyl [(Pyrazolo-1-carbothioyl)-amino]acetate Derivatives: Synthesis and Structure

Optically active derivative of the natural monoterpene (+)-3-carene, namely, ethyl (3bS,4aR)-[(3,4,4-trimethyl-3b,4,4a,5-tetrahydrocyclopropa[3,4]cyclopenta[1,2-c]pyrazole-1-carbothioyl)-amino]acetate (HL¹) and ethyl [(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazole-1-carbothioyl)-amino]acetate (HL²) were synthesized. Paramagnetic complexes [CuL¹Cl] _n (I) and [Cu₂L² ₂Cl₂] (II) were prepared. According to X-ray diffraction data, complex Iwith anion of (+)-3-carene derivative has chain structure, whereas complex IIwith anion of HL², which has no carbocyclic fragments, is a pseudodimer. Organic anions act as tetradentate bridging, cyclic ligands forming five-membered CuN₃C and CuNOC₂metal cycles. Coordination polyhedron of Cu(ClN₂O + S) in complexes Iand IIis a square pyramid. The values of _efffor complexes Iand II(1.88 and 1.84 _B, respectively) are constant in the temperature interval 78–300 K, which means that the unpaired electrons of Cu(II) ions do not exhibit any noticeable exchange interactions.     

Chiral fluoroacetic acid: synthesis of (R)- and (S)-[2H1]-fluoroacetate in high enantiopurity

A two-step synthesis of (R)- and (S)-[²H₁]-fluoroacetate (sodium salts) in high enantioselectivity is reported. The synthesis is the development of a previous one in which the enantioselectivity has been increased from ～38% ee to >95% ee. The improvement in enantioselectivity applied Bio’s methodology, which involved a deoxyfluorination reaction with DAST on either enantiomer of [²H₁]-benzyl alcohol, adding TMS-morpholine to the reaction. The additive promotes an S_N2 inversion process, and suppresses a competing non-stereospecific S_N1 reaction course, and as a result significantly improves the stereointegrity of the C–F bond formation. The intermediate [²H₁]-benzyl alcohols, [²H₁]-benzyl fluorides and the product [²H₁]-fluoroacetates as their hexyl esters were separately assayed for their stereochemical integrity, using the Courtieu method. This method involved measuring their ²H NMR spectra in a chiral matrix of poly-γ-benzyl l-glutamate. The chiral assay demonstrated that there was no significant loss in stereointegrity during the deoxyfluorination reaction and showed that the enantiomers of [²H₁]-fluoroacetate were generated with high enantiomeric purity (95% ee).     

Two nickel(II) bis[(pyridin‐2‐yl)methyl]amine complexes with homophthalic and benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetracarboxylic acids

Two new Ni^II complexes involving the ancillary ligand bis[(pyridin‐2‐yl)methyl]amine (bpma) and two different carboxylate ligands, i.e. homophthalate [hph; systematic name: 2‐(2‐carboxylatophenyl)acetate] and benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetracarboxylate (btc), namely catena‐poly[[aqua{bis[(pyridin‐2‐yl)methyl]amine‐κ³N,N′,N′′}nickel(II)]‐μ‐2‐(2‐carboxylatophenyl)aceteto‐κ²O:O′], [Ni(C₉H₆O₄)(C₁₂H₁₃N₃)(H₂O)]_n, and (μ‐benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetracarboxylato‐κ⁴O¹,O²:O⁴,O⁵)bis(aqua{bis[(pyridin‐2‐yl)methyl]amine‐κ³N,N′,N′′}nickel(II)) bis(triaqua{bis[(pyridin‐2‐yl)methyl]amine‐κ³N,N′,N′′}nickel(II)) benzene‐1,2,4,5‐tetracarboxylate hexahydrate, [Ni₂(C₁₀H₂O₈)(C₁₂H₁₃N₃)₂(H₂O)₂]·[Ni(C₁₂H₁₃N₃)(H₂O)₃]₂(C₁₀H₂O₈)·6H₂O, (II), are presented. Compound (I) is a one‐dimensional polymer with hph acting as a bridging ligand and with the chains linked by weak C—H...O interactions. The structure of compound (II) is much more complex, with two independent Ni^II centres having different environments, one of them as part of centrosymmetric [Ni(bpma)(H₂O)]₂(btc) dinuclear complexes and the other in mononuclear [Ni(bpma)(H₂O)₃]²⁺ cations which (in a 2:1 ratio) provide charge balance for btc⁴⁻ anions. A profuse hydrogen‐bonding scheme, where both coordinated and crystal water molecules play a crucial role, provides the supramolecular linkage of the different groups.

On the Reaction of Macrocycles with Lanthanoids. II. The Crystal Structures of [K(thf)₃]₂[(C₂₂H₂₈N₄)₂Sm₂] · 4 THF and [(C₂₂H₂₂N₄)Co] · DME In a complicated redox reaction [(TMTAA)K₂] and [SmI₂(thf)₂] form the polynuclear metal complex [K(thf)₃]₂[(TMTAT)₂Sm₂]. This complex crystallizes with four molecules THF per formula unit and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray investigation (spacegroup P2₁/c (No. 14), z = 4, a = 998.0(2) pm, = b = 2618.3(6) pm, c = 1619.4(3) pm, β = 96.52(2)°). In the dimeric unit [(TMTAT)₂Sm₂]^2? the Sm³⁺ ions are bonded to the four N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand and one C₆H₄ ring of the second ligand is attached η⁶ like to one metal ion. Additionally two [K(thf)₃]⁺ fragments are bonded to this central unit, and therefor coordination number seven results for the K⁺ ion. [TMTAA]^2? is not reduced by [Cp₂Co] in a similar reaction. The monomeric paramagnetic complex [(TMTAA)Co] (μ_eff = 2,76 μ_B) is formed instead. The structure reveils a square planar coordination of the Co atom by the four N atoms of the TMTAA ligand (spacegroup C2/c (No. 15), z = 4, a = 1945.1(4) pm, b = 1165.6(2) pm, c = 1144.7(2) pm, β = 116.38(1)°).

Besides the known complex ions [Cu(S₃N)₂]^? and [Cu(S₃N)Cl]^? still some more may be obtained when CuCl₂ is reacted with S₇NH: Under special conditions the S₇N ring is partly preserved, and [Cu(S₃N)(S₇N)]^? is formed. Its sparingly soluble [(Ph₃P)₂N]⁺ salt is monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 9.335(6), b = 30.984(11), c = 15.108(8) Å, β = 102.87°(4), Z = 4. Using a longer reaction time a dinuclear complex [(S₃N)Cu(S₂O₃)Cu(S₃N)]^{? ?} results from the reaction of CuCl₂ with S₇NH. The two Cu atoms are bridged by an S atom of the S₂O₃^{? ?} anion. The [Ph₄As]⁺ salt of the dinuclear complex anion is triclinic, space group P1 , a = 11.226(6), b = 12.423(6), c = 19.000(10) Å, β = 76.47°(4), β = 83.98°(4), γ = 84.71°(4), Z = 2. In all these compounds the coordination of Cu^I is trigonal-planar, the S₃N^? chelate group coordinates the Cu in the usual way by two S atoms.
