Thermodynamic properties of methylvinylsulphide

Enthalpies of the overall decomposition reactions MX₂L₂(c) → MX₂(c) + 2L(g) and of the intermediate stepwise loss of ligand, L, where X is Cl or Br; L is 3-chloropyridine, 3-bromopyridine, 2-chloropyridine, 2-bromopyridine, or 2-methoxypyridine; and M is Mn, Ni, Cu, or Cd have been measured by use of a differential scanning calorimeter. Enthalpies of sublimation of NiCl₂(3-chloropyridine)₂, NiCl₂(3-bromopyridine)₂ and CuCl₂(3-bromopyridine)₂ have been determined. Values of the metal—nitrogen bond dissociation energies in these compounds have been calculated. A value for the specific heat of CuCl₂(2-chloropyridine)₂ is reported.     

The thermal decomposition of transition-metal complexes containing heterocyclic ligands: 2.Benzoxazole complexes

Enthalpies of the overall decomposition reactions

and of the intermediate reactions involving stepwise loss of ligand, L, where M is Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, or Cd, X is Cl or Br, and L is benzoxazole, 2-methylbenzoxazole, or 2,5-dimethylbenzoxazole have been measured by use of a differential scanning calorimeter. Specific heats of CoCl₂(2-methylbenzoxazole)₂, and CoBr₂(2-methylbenzoxazole)₂ are reported together with enthalpies of sublimation of CoCl₂(2-methylbenzoxazole)₂, CoBr₂(2-methyl-benzoxazole)₂, CoCl₂(2,5-dimethylbenzoxazole)₂ and CoBr₂(2,5-dimethylbenzoxazole)₂. Enthalpies of decomposition of benzoxazole complexes are found to be greater than those of the corresponding pyridine complexes, but less than those of the analogous benzothiazole complexes. However, the mean bond dissociation energies of the cobalt—nitrogen and cobalt—oxygen bonds in these complexes are all in the region 33±2 kcal mol^?.     

4-amino-2,6-dimethyl-5-oxo-3-thioxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-l,2,4-triazine cobalt(II) complexes

Summary Cobalt(II) complexes of 4-amino-2,6-dimethyl-5-oxo-3-thioxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazine (taz) were prepared by reacting the triazine with the corresponding cobalt salt. The isolated compounds were of the types: [CoCl₂(taz)], [CoX₂(taz)₂(H₂O)₂] (X = Br or I), [CoX₂(taz)₂] (X = Br, SCN or NO₃) and [Co(taz)₂(H₂O)₂]X₂(X = C1O₄, BF₄ or NO₃). Conductance, magnetic and spectroscopic (i.r. and vis.) data were used for structural assignments. Pseudooctahedral and pseudotetrahedral structures are proposed for the complexes, with the triazine molecule acting either as a monodentate nitrogen-donor or a bidentate nitrogen-sulphur-donor ligand.     

The thermal decomposition of transition-metal complexes containing heterocyclic ligands: I. Benzothiazole complexes

Enthalpies of the decomposition reactions MX₂L₂(c)→MX₂(c) + 2L (g), where M is Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, or Cd, X is Cl and/or Br, and L is benzothiazole or 2-methyl-benzothiazole have been measured by use of a differential scanning calorimeter. Specific heats and enthalpies of sublimation of some of the complexes have been obtained.     

Investigation of phase diagrams by DTA and X-ray methods: The systems AX/CoX2 (A = Na-Cs,TI;X = Cl,Br, I)

A combination of differential thermal analysis and X-ray structure analysis is advantageously used to investigate the formation of double halides in complicated systems betweeen alkali halides, AX, and divalent halides, MX₂. Among the systems of CoX₂ (X = Cl, Br.I) this is particularly valid for the systems TICI/CoCl₂ and TlBr/CoBr₂.     

Über die Systeme AJ/CoJ2 und die kristallchemischen Beziehungen in der Gruppe der Doppelhalogenide AnCoX(n+2) mit X = Cl,Br, J [1]

The Systems AI/CoI₂ (A = Alkali Metal, Tl, Ag) and the Crystal Chemistry of the Double Halides A_nCoX_(n+2) with X = Cl, Br, I The systems AI/CoI₂ (A = Cs, Rb, K, Tl, Na, Ag) were investigated by differencethermal analysis. The systems of NaI and AgI are found to be eutectical. A compound A₂CoI₄ always exists in the other systems. Cs₂CoI₄ crystallizes in the β-K₂SO₄ type with a coordination number (C.N.) for Cs equal to 9/10. Results obtained with single crystal technique reveal for the first time that among the double halides Rb₂CoI₄ is of the monoclinic Sr₂GeS₄ type (C. N. for Rb = 6(+2)). The compounds K₂CoJ₄, Tl₂CoJ₄, T-K₂CoBr₄, and T-Tl₂CoBr₄ are isotypic. Both structure groups are characterized by isolated CoX₄^2? tetrahedra. Reflectance spectra and magnetic susceptibilities can be explained on the basis of crystal field theory. – Our results close presently existing gaps in the knowledge on systems of CoBr₂ and CoCl₂ too.     

Bacterial activity of cobalt(III) complexes. Part IV: Diethylenetriaminemonoacetatocobalt(III) complexes

Summary The activities of the diethylenetriaminemonoacetatocobalt(III) complexes, [Co(en)(DTMA)]I₂, [CoX₂(DTMA)] and [CoCO₃(DTMA)]·H₂O (DTMA=diethylenetriaminemonoacetato or formally 3-amino-3, 6-diazaoctanato; en=ethylenediamine, X=Cl^–, NO ₂ ^– , NCS^–) were studied onEscherichia coli B growing in a minimal glucose medium in both lag- and log-phases. Activities decrease in the order: [Co(NCS)₂(DTMA)]> [Co(NO₂)₂(DTMA)]>[Co(en)(DTMA)]I₂>[CoCl₂(DTMA)] >[CoCO₃(DTMA)]·H₂O. The antagonistic activities of the complexes were also studied.     

Co(II) halide complexes with 2-amino-3-methylpyridinium and 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium: synthesis,crystal structures,and magnetic properties

Reaction of CoX₂ · nH₂O with either 2-amino-3-methylpyridine (3-MAP) or 2-amino-5-methylpyridine (5-MAP) in aqueous acid gave complexes, (3-MAPH)₂CoX₄ or (5-MAPH)₂CoX₄ (H₂O) _n [n = 0,1; X = Cl, Br; 3-MAPH = 2-amino-3-methylpyridinium, 5-MAPH = 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium]. The 3-MAPH salts are formed in the triclinic crystal system while the 5-MAPH salts are formed in the monoclinic crystal system. Three of these compounds exhibit weak antiferromagnetic interactions along with varying degrees of single-ion anisotropy, however, 1 shows easy-plane anisotropy and exhibits a mixture of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions.     

Investigation of interaction of olefin-bonded transition metal complexes by gas chromatography. Diphenylphosphine complexes with CoCl2 and CoBr2

Summary Packings consisting of diphenylphosphine complexes with CoCl₂ and CoBr₂, chemically bonded to the silica surface, were synthesized and their retention parameters determined. The packings are capable of specifically interacting with electron-donating compounds by forming -complexes. The interaction is considerably stronger in the case of CoBr₂-containing packing than in the case of CoCl₂-containing packing.

Gaseous complexes of cobalt(II) bromide and pyridine

The stepwise decomposition of CoBr₂py₂(s) has been investigated on a thermobalance by the “modified entrainment” method yielding Δ₁H=88.6 kJ mol¹, Δ₁S=156.6 JK^?1 mol^?1 and Δ₂H=119.0 kJ mol^?1, Δ₂S=211.8 JK^?1 mol^?1 for the dissociation of the first and second pyridine. The evaporation of CoBr₂py₂(l) and the association of gaseous pyridine to CoBr₂py(l) forming CoBr₂py₂(g) has been studied by vis spectroscopy at 250?420°C. By combining the new results with literature values, a complete thermodynamic cycle for the solid-liquid-gas equilibria in the CoBr₂-pyridine system could be established. It shows that in solution the formation of CoBr₂py₂ is not determined by the cobalt-pyridine bond energy but by the solvation energy of the rectants.     

Melting and high-temperature solid state transitions in cobalt(II) halides

Melting and high temperature solid-state transitions in CoCl₂ and CoBr₂ are widely discussed. On the basis of DSC and conductometric measurements it was found that melting process of CoCl₂ is preceded by a solid-state transition appearing about 20 K below the melting point of CoCl₂. Due to deconvolution of the thermograms, the enthalpy of fusion and that of solid-state transition were found to be 36.4 and 9.6 kJ mol^–1, respectively. Melting points of CoCl₂ and CoBr₂ were established to be 999.0 and 949.7 K, respectively. Hitherto unknown enthalpy of fusion of CoBr₂ was determined to be 27.2 kJ mol^–1. A solid-state transition in CoBr₂ at 650 K has been confirmed.     

Rhodium(I) carbonyl complexes with sulphur and nitrogen donor ligands

Summary Rhodium(I) carbonyl complexes, namely [Rh(CO)₂ClL] where L = thiourea (Tu), 1,3-diphenyl-2-thiourea (DTu), dithizone (Dtz), indole (Id), 3-chloropyridine (Clpy), 3-hydroxypyridine (HOpy), 3-methylpyridine (Mepy), 2,5-dimethylpyridine (Me₂py) or 2,5-dichloropyridine (Cl₂py)] were prepared. [Rh(CO)₂Cl(Clpy)₂] has also been isolated. In the (Tu) complex, (C-S) occurs at ca. 710cm^-1, indicating the presence of a metal-sulphur bond. The carbonyl stretching frequencies in [Rh (CO)₂ClL] and [Rh(CO)₂CIL₂] occur at ca. 2100–1990 and 1830–1800 cm^-1, respectively. PPh₃ reacts with the complexes to form trans-[Rh(CO)Cl(PPh₃)₂]. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, conductivity measurements and by their i.r. spectra.

Co(III) and Cr(III) complexes of diphosphadithia ligands and the crystal structure of [CoCl2(L3)]PF6·CH2Cl2 (L3=Ph2P(CH2)2S(o-C6H4)S(CH2)2PPh2)

[CrX₃(thf)₃] (X=Cl or Br) reacts with L (L=L¹–L³ or Ph₂[14]aneP₂S₂) (L¹=Ph₂P(CH₂)₂S(CH₂)₂S(CH₂)₂PPh₂, L²=Ph₂P(CH₂)₂S(CH₂)₃S(CH₂)₂PPh₂, L³=Ph₂P(CH₂)₂S(o-C₆H₄)S(CH₂)₂PPh₂, Ph₂[14]aneP₂S₂=4,8-diphenyl-1,11-dithia-4,8-diphosphacyclotetradecane) and TlPF₆ in MeNO₂ solution to yield the distorted octahedral complexes [CrX₂(L)]PF₆ as green coloured solids in high yield. UV/visible spectroscopy suggests that these are cis-dihalo species and they have also been characterised by IR spectroscopy, electrospray mass spectrometry and microanalyses. The Co(III) analogues [CoX₂(L)]⁺ are readily prepared in a two-stage reaction, involving treatment of CoX₂·6H₂O with L (L=L¹–L³) and NH₄PF₆ in EtOH solution to give a green/brown solid, followed by halogen oxidation of this product in CH₂Cl₂ solution using X₂/CCl₄, to give the final products as brown coloured solids. A mixture of PF₆⁻ and [CoX₄]²⁻ anions are present in the final Co(III) compounds in varying ratios. Crystal structures of [CoCl₂(L²)]₂[CoCl₄]·4H₂O and [CoCl₂(L³)]PF₆·CH₂Cl₂ confirm tetradentate P₂S₂ coordination of L in each case, with mutually cis halogens completing the distorted octahedral geometry. In both cases the complex cation adopts the cis-α form in the solid state and this is also consistent with the solution ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectroscopic data. ⁵⁹Co NMR spectroscopy reveals a very broad single resonance at ≈3200 ppm for these species.     

Synthesis and characterization of Mn(II) and Zn(II) azido complexes with halo-substituted pyridine derivative ligands

The synthesis, IR spectra and single-crystal structures of two Mn(II) and one Zn(II) azido complexes with halo-substituted pyridine derivative ligands are reported: [Mn(N₃)-₂(3-Brpy)₂(H₂O)]₂(3-Brpy)₂ (1), [Mn(N₃)₂(3-Brpy)₂] _n (2) and [Zn(N₃)₂(3-amino,2-chloropyridine)] _n (3) with 3-Brpy = 3-bromopyridine. In the dinuclear Mn(II) complex 1 and polymeric 1D Zn(II) complex 3, di-EO only azido bridges exist, whereas in the polymeric Mn(II) 1D system of 2, a rather less common di-EO/di-EO/di-EE azido bridging sequence has been observed (EO = end-on, EE = end-to-end). The halo-substituted pyridine derivatives act in the three compounds as terminal ligands and in 1 also as solvent molecules.     

Crystal-field splitting in the M11,111 spectra of Co(II) compounds

Cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and copper(I) complexes of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2,5-bis(methylmercapto)-1,3,4-thiadiazole

Summary Some cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and copper(I) complexes of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (mttz) and 2,5-bis(methylmercapto)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (bmttz) have been prepared and studied by conductometric and magnetochemical methods and by electronic and i. r. spectroscopy. The complexes CoX₂ · 2L (L=mttz, X=Cl, Br or I; L=bmttz, X=Br or I), CoCl₂ · bmttz are pseudotetrahedral, and the complexes NiX₂ · mttz (X=Cl or Br), NiCl₂ · 1.3 bmttz, NiBr₂ · 1.5 bmttz are pseudooctahedral. The complex Co₃(OAc)₂ · 4(mttz-H) · 2H₂O has an undefinite constitution. The polynuclear complexes CuCl₂ · 1.3 mttz and CuBr₂ · 1.2 mttz contain presumably pseudotetrahedral chromophores, the chloride having a subnormal magnetic moment. The CuX₂ · 2 bmttz (X=Cl, Br or NO₃) complexes have a six coordination with bridging ligand molecules. In the CuX · 2 mttz (X=Cl, Br or ClO₄) complexes the anions are coordinated, while in the CuClO₄ · 2 bmttz complex the perchlorate anion is ionically bonded.     

Synthesis of metal complexes with a novel ethyldioxolane pendant-arm hexaazamacrocyclic ligand

The coordination capability of a pendant-arm azamacrocyclic ligand L with four ethyldioxolane pendant groups towards transition, post-transition and lanthanide metal ions was achieved. In all cases, complexes with a 2:1 metal:ligand molar ratio were obtained. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, MS-FAB, IR, conductivity measurements, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Crystal structures of [CoL][CoBr_0.5(NO₃)_3.5] and [(H₂O)H₂L][Nd(NO₃)₄(H₂O)₃]NO₃·3.5H₂O have been determined. The [CoL]²⁺ cation contains the Co(II) ion endomacrocyclicly coordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry with a N₆ core. The Nd(III) complex presents a mononuclear exomacrocyclic structure with an 11 coordination environment. π,π-Stacking interactions have been observed between the pyridine rings of the protonated ligand [(H₂O)H₂L]²⁺, and the [Nd(NO₃)₄(H₂O)₃]²⁻ anion.     

Preface

Abstract

The FT-IR and Raman spectra of eight new complexes of formula ML₂Ni(CN)₄ (where M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu or Cd and L = 2-chloropyridine; M = Ni or Cd and L = 2-bromopyridine) are reported. The spectroscopic results indicate that the complexes have structures consisting of corrugated polymeric layers of [M-Ni(CN)₄]∞ with 2-substituted pyridine molecules bound directly to the metal (M). For a given ligand (2-Clpy or 2-Brpy) the effects of metal-ligand bond formation on the ligand modes are examined. Metal-ligand bond strengths of the halo-derivatives of pyridine (L = 2-Clpy or 2-Brpy), inferred by the effects on frequency shifts of certain ligand modes, have also been compared.
