Functionalized silicon-containing imino enols and enamino ketones prepared by hydrolytic condensation

A mixture of two isomers of organosilicon carbofunctional compounds, 4-(3′-triethoxysilylpropylimino)pent-2-en-2-ol (EtO)₃Si-CH₂CH₂CH₂-N=C(Me)-CH=C(Me)-OH (Ia, 83%) and 4-(3′-triethoxysilylpropylamino)pent-3-en-2-one (EtO)₃-CH₂CH₂CH₂-NH-C(Me)=CH-C(O)Me (Ib, 17%) was prepared by reaction of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane with acetylacetone. The use of trimethylsilyl ether of acetylacetone instead of acetylacetone yields Ia (84%) and silylated derivatives (Me₃SiO)_n(EtO)_3?n Si-CH₂CH₂CH₂-N=C(Me)CH=C(Me)OH (II) (16%). Solid, liquid, or resinous products were prepared by hydrolytic condensation of I and II. Compositions for preparing transparent sol-gel films were developed.     

Synthesis and thermal stability of silicon-containing esters of phosphorus acids

A number of trialkylsilylmethyl diphenyl phosphates MeRR′SiCH₂OP(O)(OPh)₂ (1a-e: R=Et (a), Pr (b), CF₃CH₂CH₂ (c, e), Me₃SiCH₂ (d); R′=Me (a-d), Et (e)) were synthesized and their thermal rearrangement, of the 1,2-shift type, was studied. The rearrangement consists of the migration of an alkyl group from Si atom to the methylene carbon atom and gives the corresponding silyl esters. The rate of the rearrangement was found to increase in the order1d<1b<1a<1 (R=R′=Me)<1c corresponding to the enhancement of the total inductive effect (−I) of the substituents at the Si atom. The relative migration ability of the substituents at the Si atom, determined by GC/MS analysis of the disiloxane fraction resulting from hydrolysis of pyrolyzed phosphates1a-e, increases in the order R=Pr<Et<CF₃CH₂CH₂<Me≪Me₃SiCH₂, which differs substantially from the order in which the rate of the rearrangement of phosphates1a-d changes. The electronegativity of the migrating group affects noticeably the relative ability to migrate. For Part 4, see Ref. 1. Deceased.

Reactions of Co2(CO)6(RC≡CR′) (RC2R′—hydroxy- or alkoxysilyl-alkynes) with tetraethyl-orthosilicate

Co₂(CO)₈ has been reacted with but-2-yn-1,4-diol (BUD) and the reactivity of the resulting complex Co₂(CO)₆(HOCH₂C≡CCH₂OH) (complex 1) is discussed. Complex 1 has been reacted with all the components used in the synthesis of sol-gel materials based on tetraethyl-orthosilicate (TEOS) with the aim at obtaining evidences for the processes occurring during the formation of inorganic-organometallic sol-gel materials containing BUD. Reaction pathways are discussed. BUD and complex 1 have also been reacted with 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl isocyanate (TSI); the new ligand [(EtO)₃Si(CH₂)₃NHC(— O)OCH₂C≡CCH₂OC(—O)NH(C H₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] (TB) and the complex Co₂(CO)₆[(EtO)₃Si(CH₂)₃NHC(—O)OCH₂C≡CCH₂OC(—O)NH(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] (11) have been obtained; these were characterized by means of spectroscopic techniques and mass spectrometry. Reactions of ligand TB and of complex 11 with TEOS have been performed. “Condensation” reactions of ligand TB (with TB) and of complex 11 (with complex 11) have also been attempted. Solid, amorphous materials were obtained: these were characterized by means of IR-Raman, SEM microscopy and XRD on powders.     

Formation of Cu<Superscript>I</Superscript>(CH<Subscript>3</Subscript>CN)<Subscript>4</Subscript>ClO<Subscript>4</Subscript> in the reactions of copper(II) perchlorate with acetonitrile in the presence of sulfur-containing organic compounds

Cu(ClO₄)₂·6H₂O was shown to react with 2,2′-[propane-1,3-diylbis(thio-2-phenylnemethylidene]-bis(3-pyridylamine) (I) or (5Z)-2-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-(2-pyridylmethylidene)-3,5-dihydro-4H-imidazol-4-one (II) in the presence of CH₃CN with the reduction of copper(II) to copper(I) and the formation of the tetrahedral complex Cu^I(CH₃CN)₄ClO₄ (III). In the course of the reaction the organic ligands I and II were oxidized to the corresponding sulfoxides.     

Crystal and molecular structure of 4(3-acryloyloxy)octyloxy- and 4(3-acryloyloxy)hexyloxy-4′-cyanobiphenyls

The molecular and crystal structures of N≡C-C₆H₄-C₆H₄-O-(CH₂)₈-O-CO-CH=CH₂ (4(3-acryloyloxy)octyloxy-4′-cyanobiphenyl) (I) and N≡C-C₆H₄-C₆H₄-O-(CH₂)₆-O-CO-CH=CH₂ (4(3-acryloyloxy)hexyloxy-4′-cyanobiphenyl) (II) were determined by X-ray diffraction. The structures of I and II are stereotype. The space group of I and II is C2/c, Z = 8; lattice parameters I: a = 34.677(7)?, b = 9.452(2)?, c = 13.004(3) ?, β = 99.30(3)°; II: a = 30.858(6) ?, b = 9.504(2) ?, c = 13.082(2) ?, β = 92.78(3)°. The planar extended molecules I and II are packed in the unit cell to give clearly differentiated aliphatic and aromatic regions throughout the whole crystal. All intermolecular contacts are concentrated in the aromatic region. The molecular packing is very loose but the aromatic areas of I and II fully coincide. The only free parameter of the structure is the length of the aliphatic chain (CH₂)n (n = 8 and 6). According to DSC data, compound I possesses enantiotropic mesomorphism and II possesses monotropic mesomorphism.     

Preparation of transparent sol-gel films containing europium, terbium, and ytterbium cations from 4-(3′-triethoxysilylpropylimino)-pent-2-en-2-ol

A reaction of 3-aminopropyl(triethoxy)silane with acetylacetone gave a mixture of two isomeric carbon-functionalized organosilicon compounds capable of complexation and sol-gel polymerization. These were 4-(3′-triethoxysilylpropylimino)-pent-2-en-2-ol (EtO)₃Si-CH₂CH₂CH₂-N=C(Me)CH=C(Me)OH (Ia, 83%) and 4-(3′-triethoxysilylpropylamino)-pent-3-en-2-one (EtO)₃Si-CH₂CH₂CH₂-NH-C(Me)=CH-C(O)Me (Ib, 17%). With acetylacetone trimethylsilyl ether instead of acetylacetone itself, compound Ia and silylated derivatives (Me₃SiO) _n (EtO)_{3 ? n} Si-CH₂CH₂CH₂-N=C(Me)CH=C(Me)OH were obtained as admixture in 84 and 16% yields, respectively. Reactions of ligands Ia and Ib with europium and terbium propan-2-olates afforded the corresponding complexes. Formulations of lanthanide complexes, oligodimethylsiloxanediols, and 3-aminopropyl(triethoxy)silane were used to prepare transparent sol-gel films. The photoluminescence spectra of the films show narrow bands due to Eu³⁺ or Tb³⁺ emission. Emission from the organosilicon matrix appears as a broad band at 430 to 435 nm.     

Synthesis,crystal structures,and catalytic property of dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes with hydrazones

Two new dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes, [MoO₂(L₁)] _n · 0.5 _n CH₃OH (I) and [MoO₂(L₂)(CH₃OH)] (II), where L1 and L₂ are the dianionic form of N′-[1-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxyphenyl)methylidene]isonicotinohydrazide and N′-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzylidene)-3-methylbenzohydrazide, respectively, were prepared and structurally characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray determination. For complex I, a polymeric structure is obtained, which is linked by coordination of the pyridine N atoms to the Mo atoms of other [MoO₂(L₁)] units. Complex II is a mononuclear molybdenum compound. In both complexes, the Mo atoms are in octahedral coordination. The catalytic properties of the complexes indicate that they are efficient catalysts for sulfoxidation.     

Reaction of tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine hydrochloride with zinc diacetate and bis(2-methylphenoxy)acetate

Reaction of tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine hydrochloride Cl⁻ N⁺H(CH₂CH₂OH)₃ with zinc diacetate and bis(2-methylphenoxy)acetate in the molar ratio 2: 1 results in complexes 2[Cl⁻ N⁺H(CH₂CH₂OH)₃]^· Zn (OCOR)₂ (I, II) R= Me (I), 2-MeC₆H₄OCH₂ (II), which contain two protatrane cations linked with zinc diacylate by two coordination bonds HO → Zn. Complexes I and II are also formed by the reaction of the corresponding tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine hydrochloride acylate RCOO⁻N⁺H(CH₂CH₂OH)₃ with ZnCl₂. The structure of complexes I, II is proved by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy.     

Reactions of Ru3(CO)12 with Ene-yne and Alkoxy-silyl Functionalized Compounds. The Crystal Structure of (μ-H)Ru3(CO)9[μ3-η2-HC=N(CH2)3Si(OEt)3]

Ru₃(CO)₁₂ has been reacted with the compounds hex-1-en-3-yne [EtC≡CCH=CH₂], 2-methyl-hex-1-en-3-yne [EtC≡CC(=CH₂)CH₃] and with 3(ethoxy-silyl)propyl isocyanate [(EtO)₃Si(CH₂)₃NCO] and the compound tb [(EtO)₃Si(CH₂)₃NHC(=O)OCH₂C≡CCH₂OC(=O)NH(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] in hydrocarbon solution. Some reactions in CH₃OH/KOH solution (followed by acidification) have also been performed. The main products of the reactions with ene-ynes are the clusters Ru₃(CO)₆(μ-CO)₂L₂ (L = C₆H₈, C₇H₁₀) and their demolition products, the “ferrole” Ru₂(CO)₆L₂ complexes. One of the isomers of Ru₃(CO)₆(μ-CO)₂L₂, and Ru₂(CO)₆L₂ (L = C₇H₁₀) have been reacted with vinyl-triethoxysilane [(EtO)₃SiCH=CH₂]: these reactions did not afford complexes containing new carbon–carbon bonds or triethoxy-silyl groups. Only polymerization of vinyl-triethoxysilane occurred. The reactions of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ with triethoxysilyl-propyl-isocyanate and tb (in the presence of Me₃NO) lead to the same products, that is the isomeric complexes (μ-H)Ru₃(CO)₉[C=N(H)(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] with a “perpendicular” ligand (complex 3, as proposed on the basis of spectroscopic results) and (μ-H)Ru₃(CO)₉[HC=N(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] with a “parallel” ligand (complex 4, as confirmed by a X-ray analysis). The reaction pathways leading to these products are discussed. Complex 4 has been reacted with tetraethyl orthosilicate and the resulting material has been characterized. These reactions are part of a study on the synthesis of inorganic-organometallic materials through sol–gel techniques. This paper is dedicated to Prof. Gunther Schmid in the occasion of his 70th birthday.     

Syntheses, magnetic and spectral studies on polystyrene supported coordination compounds of bidentate and tetradentate Schiff bases

The reaction of aminomethylated polystyrene (PSCH₂-NH₂) and 2-hydroxyacetanilide in DMF results in the formation of polystyrene-anchored monobasic bidentate Schiff base, PSCH₂-LH (I). On the other hand, the reaction of chloromethylated polystyrene (PSCH₂-Cl), 3-formylsalicylic acid, ethylenediamine and acetylacetone in DMF in presence of ethyl acetate (EA) and triethylamine (TEA) produces another polystyrene-anchored dibasic tetradentate Schiff base, PSCH₂-L′H₂ (II). BothI andII react with a number of di-, tri-and hexavalent metal ions like Co, Ni, Cu, Zn and Cd to form polystyreneanchored coordination compounds, and these have been characterized and discussed.

New cluster complexes [W₃S₄(Acac)₃(PPh₃)₃]PF₆ · 0.5CHCl₃ (Acac = CH₃C(O)CHC(O)CH₃) (I) and [W₃S₄(Hfac)₃(PPh₃)₂Br] · 2CHCl₃ (Hfac = CF₃C(O)CHC(O)CF₃) (II) were synthesized. Their molecular and crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. The cis-cis type of coordination of acetylacetonate and hexafluoroacetylacetonate ligands in I and II, respectively, was established, and the PPh₃ ligands were found in the trans-positions with respect to the “capping” sulfide ligand (μ³-S).

The azo coupling reaction of N-(2-carboxyethyl)anthranilic acid and N,N,N′,N′-tetrabis(2-carboxyethyl)-1,3-phenylenediamine with diazosulfanilic acid yielded the complexones sodium 4-N-(2-carboxyethyl)amino-5-carboxyazobenzene-4′-sulfonate (I) and 2,4-N,N,N′,N′-tetrabis(2-carboxyethyl)diaminoazobenzene-4′-sulfonic acid (II), respectively. The acidity constants of I and II (20°C, μ = 0.1M KCl) were determined to be as follows: for I, pK ₀₀ = 1.29 ± 0.13, pK ₀ = 2.92 ± 0.07, pK ₁ = 3.92 ± 0.05, pK ₂ = 5.16 ± 0.03; for II, pK ₀₀ = 2.35 ± 0.06, pK ₀ = 2.81 ± 0.09, pK ₁ = 3.21 ± 0.11, pK ₂ = 3.81 ± 0.09, pK ₃ = 4.34 ± 0.04, pK ₄ = 5.03 ± 0.06, pK ₅ = 6.67 ± 0.07.

The complexation constants of I and II with copper(II) ions were determined to be logK _CuQ^I= 5.47 ± 0.06 and logK _CuQ^II= 5.72 ± 0.13 (20°C, μ = 0.1 M KCl).     

Carbofunctional fluorine-containing triethoxysilanes: synthesis,film forming and properties

Novel fluorine-containing carbofunctional organosilicon monomers were synthesized: 3-pentafluorobenzylideneaminopropylethoxysilane (EtO)₃Si(CH₂)₃N=CH-C₆F₅, N-3-methoxydiethoxysilylpropyltrifluoroacetamide (EtO)₂(MeO)Si(CH₂)₃NHC(O)CF₃, and 1,1,5-trihydrooctafluoroamyl N-3-triethoxysilylpropylaminopropanoate (EtO)₃Si(CH₂)₃NH(CH₂)₂C(O)OCH₂(CF₂)₃CHF₂. Compositions for the formation of transparent thermally stable films were prepared from these monomers. The films have low absorbance intensity near 1550 nm, i.e., in the region of photosignal transmission of modern optical communication systems. The compositions can dissolve complexes with organofluorine ligands and produce transparent homogeneous films doped with rare-earth metals. The concentrations of the complexes in the matrices are 3.7–21.4 wt.% (metal concentrations are 0.6–3.7%). Fluorescence and fluorescence excitation spectra of the matrices and electronic absorption spectra of the doped films were studied. __________ Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

The reaction of [Ni(dppa)(Cl)₂] or [Ni(dppa)(Br)₂] with AgOTf gives [Ni(dppa)(OTf)₂], which then form [Ni(dppa)(RaaiR)](OSO₂CF₃)₂ under the action of arylazoimidazole(RaaiR) in a dichloromethane medium [RaaiR′ = p-R-C₆H₄-N=N-C₃H₂-NN-1-R′, (I–III), abbreviated as N,N′-chelating agent, where N(imidazole) and N(azo) represent N and N’, respectively; R = H (a), Me (b), Cl (c) and R′ = Me (I), CH₂CH₃ (II), CH₂Ph (III), OSO₂CF₃ is the triflate anion]. The ¹H NMR spectral measurements suggest that a bound azoimine is responsible for a number of signals of phenyl protons in the aromatic region.

Synthesis and X-ray diffraction study of R[UO2(CH3COO)3] (R = H3O+ or NH(C2H5) 3+ )

Single crystals of (H₃O)[UO₂(CH₃COO)₃] (I) and (NH(C₂H₅)₃)[UO₂(CH₃COO)₃] (II) are synthesized, and their structures are studied by X-ray crystallography. Compound I crystallizes in the tetragonal crystal system with the unit cell parameters a = 13.70640(10) ?, c = 27.5258(5) ?, V = 5171.14(11) ?³, space group I4₁/a, Z = 16, R = 0.0238. The crystals of compound II are orthorhombic with the parameters a = 13.3685(3) ?, b = 10.6990(3) ?, c = 12.2616(3) ?, V = 1753.77(8) ?³, space group Pna2₁, Z = 4, R = 0.0228. The uranium-containing structural units of crystals I and II are [UO₂(CH₃COO)₃]⁻ island mononuclear groups belonging to the A B₃⁰¹(A = UO₂²⁺, B⁰¹ = CH₃COO⁻) crystal-chemical group of uranyl complexes. [UO₂(CH₃COO)₃]⁻ complexes are linked into a three-dimensional framework by electrostatic interactions with the outer-sphere cations and by hydrogen bonds involving the hydrogen atoms of hydroxonium (I) or triethylammonium (II) with the oxygen atoms of the acetato groups.     

NMR studies of molecular motion in tetramethylammonium hydroxide pentahydrate

Polycrystalline (CH₃)₄NOH·5 H₂O (I) and (CH₃)₄NOD·5D₂O (II) have been studied by¹H NMR lineshapes, second moments and spin-lattice relaxation times and by²H NMR lineshapes as a function of temperature. From low temperatures the first motion to occur is reorientation of the internally rigid (CH₃)₄N⁺ ion about a uniqueC ₃ axis (E _ta = 8.37 kJ/mol forI,E _a = 9.00 kJ/mole forII), followed closely by pseudo isotropic reorientation of the whole ion (E _a = 18.10 kJ/mol). Motion of the cage molecules (water and hydroxide ion) occurs at higher temperatures with an apparentE _a = 11.30 kJ/mol. There is some evidence of a phase transition inII but notI in the 220–230 K region.²H NMR lineshapes ofII below 220 K indicate static cage molecules. Some of the²H quadrupole coupling constants derived from these spectra correspond to O·O hydrogen-bond distances which are incompatible with the known room temperature structure ofI. Above the possible transition inII the anisotropic²H lineshapes indicate rapid motion of²H among all possible hydrogen-bond sites via transfer along the bonds and molecular reorientation. This motion persists in the high temperature phase but the lineshape becomes isotropic due to the cubic symmetry of this phase. It is possible that¹H or²H tunnelling plays an important part in the motion of the cage molecules and the different phase behaviour ofI andII.Dedicated to Dr D. W. Davidson in honor of his great contributions to the sciences of inclusion phenomena.

The crystal structure of the new cluster complex (Et₄N)₂[Mo₃S₇Cl₆] · CH₃CN · H₂O (I) was determined. Heating of a solution of I in CH₃CN under solvothermal conditions (120°C) induces replacement of one Cl⁻ ligand by CH₃CN to give (Et₄N)[Mo₃S₇Cl₅(CH₃CN)] (II). The product was also studied by X-ray diffraction analysis.
