New polyfunctional silicon-containing amines C6[CH2CH2SiMe(OCH2CH2NR2)2]6 (R = H,Me) and their reactions with cobalt(ii) chloride and dicobalt octacarbonyl

Hexakis[bis(2-aminoethoxy)methylsilylethyl]benzene and hexakis[bis(N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoethoxy)methylsilylethyl]benzene C₆[(NR₂CH₂CH₂O)₂SiMeCH₂CH₂]₆ (4, R = H; 5, R = Me) were prepared from hexakis(methyldichlorosilylethyl)benzene C₆(Cl₂MeSiCH₂CH₂)₆ and 2-aminoethanol or N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoethanol, respectively. Compounds 4 and 5 react with anhydrous cobalt (ii) chloride to give poorly soluble dodecachloro{hexakis[bis(2-aminoethoxy)methylsilylethyl]benzene}hexacobalt and dodecachloro{hexakis[bis(N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoethoxy)methylsilylethyl]benzene}hexacobalt {Co₆[(NR₂CH₂CH₂O)₂SiMeCH₂CH₂]₆C₆}Cl₁₂ (R = H or Me), respectively. Polyfunctional amine 4 reacts with dicobalt octacarbonyl to produce hexakis[bis(2-aminoethoxy)methylsilylethyl]benzenedicobalt(ii) tetrakis(tetracarbonylcobaltate) {Co₂[(NH₂CH₂CH₂O)₂SiMeCH₂CH₂]₆C₆}[Co(CO)₄]₄. N,N-Dimethyl-substituted polyfunctional amine 5 is lowly reactive in the reaction with Co₂(CO)₈, whereas the simplest model of this compound, viz., bis(N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoethoxy)dimethylsilane (NMe₂CH₂CH₂O)₂SiMe₂, slowly reacts with Co₂(CO)₈ to give tris[bis(N,N-dimethyl-2-aminoethoxy)dimethylsilane]cobalt(ii) bis(tetracarbonylcobaltate) {Co[(NMe₂CH₂CH₂O)₂SiMe₂]₃}[Co(CO)₄]₂. Thermal decomposition and transformations of the resulting complexes under the action of oxygen and water were studied.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,and some spectroscopic properties of zinc(II) complexes with N2O2 ligands derived from m-phenylenediamine and m-aminobenzylamine

The reaction of bis(salicylidene)-m-phenylenediamine with zinc(II) ion affords a 2?:?2 dinuclear zinc(II) complex formulated as [Zn₂(L¹)₂]. A similar 2?:?2 dinuclear zinc(II) complex, [Zn₂(L²)₂], can be obtained by reaction of bis(salicylidene)-m-aminobenzylamine with zinc(II) ion. These two dinuclear complexes slightly differ in their crystal structures, especially coordination environments around the zinc(II) centers, depending on the dissimilar flexibilities of the two ligands. The differences between the two complexes are reflected in their diffuse reflectance and photoluminescence behaviors.

Luminescent dual sensor for time-resolved imaging of pCO2 and pO2 in aquatic systems

An optical dual sensor for the two-dimensional detection of pCO₂ and pO₂ is described. Tris(tetraoctylammonium)-8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate ((TOA)₃HPTS) acting together with the lipophilic buffer tetraoctylammonium hydrogen carbonate ((TOA)HCO₃) as pCO₂-sensing system along with the oxygen indicator tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) ruthenium(II) bis(3-(trimethylsilyl)-1-propanesulfonate) (Ru(dpp)₃TMS₂) are incorporated into a single layer ethyl cellulose matrix. A second layer of black silicone rubber served as an optical isolation. The two indicators were simultaneously excited with a 460-nm LED, and a fast-gateable CCD camera was used as the detector. The time-gated imaging scheme enables the mapping of pCO₂ and pO₂ within one measurement, where images in three different time windows during and after a series of square-shaped excitation pulses are recorded. A numerical evaluation method for the resolution of the single parameter maps from these three overall images is described. The response of the sensor has been optimized for use in aquatic systems.     

Reactions of pyridine-2-ethyl/methyl cyclopentadienes with metal carbonyls

Abstract

Thermal treatment of pyridine-2-ethyl cyclopentadiene (1) with Fe(CO)₅ and Ru₃(CO)₁₂ gave novel intramolecular C–H activated dinuclear products (3 and 5). In the case of Fe(CO)₅, the reaction also afforded the normal bis(cyclopentadienyl) diiron complex (4). However, similar reaction of pyridine-2-methyl cyclopentadiene (2) with Fe(CO)₅ and Ru₃(CO)₁₂ only afforded the normal bis(cyclopentadienyl) dinuclear metal complexes (7 and 8). For Ru₃(CO)₁₂, the reaction also yielded a pendant η¹-pyridyl-coordinated product (9). In addition, the reactions of 1 and 2 with Re₂(CO)₁₀ formed the corresponding pyridylethyl/pyridylmethyl cyclopentadienyl rhenium tricarbonyl complexes 10 and 11, which further underwent pyridine to rhenium cyclization via photoirradiation to provide the rhenium dicarbonyl complexes 12 and 13. The molecular structures of 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 12 were determined by X-ray diffraction.

Synthesis,structure and biological activity of diorganotin derivatives with pyridyl functionalized bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methanes

Three pyridyl functionalized bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methanes, namely 2‐[(4‐pyridyl)methoxyphenyl] bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methane (L¹), 2‐[(4‐pyridyl)methoxyphenyl]bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)methane (L²) and 2‐[(3‐pyridyl)methoxyphenyl]bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methane (L³) have been synthesized by the reactions of (2‐hydroxyphenyl)bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methanes with chloromethylpyridine. Treatment of these three ligands with R₂SnCl₂ (R = Et, n‐Bu or Ph) yields a series of symmetric 2:1 adducts of (L)₂SnR₂Cl₂ (L = L¹, L² or L³), which have been confirmed by elemental analysis and NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structures of (L²)₂Sn(n‐Bu)₂Cl₂·0.5C₆H₁₄ and (L³)₂SnEt₂Cl₂ determined by X‐ray crystallography show that the functionalized bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methane acts as a monodentate ligand through the pyridyl nitrogen atom, and the pyrazolyl nitrogen atoms do not coordinate to the tin atom. The cytotoxic activity of these complexes for Hela cells in vitro was tested. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of the deuterated organic conductor, (d8-ET)4[Hg2(SCN)4Cl2]

On the basis of completely deuterated bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (d₈-ET), new organic conductors, (d₈-ET)₄[Hg₂(SCN)₄Cl₂] and (d₈-ET)₂[Hg(SCN)₂Br] have been synthesized and studied by X-ray structural analysis. Unlike nondeuterated organic metalsk-(ET)₂[Hg(SCN)_3–n X _n ] (X = Cl or Br;n=1 and 2), the crystal structure of (d₈-ET)₄[Hg₂(SCN)₄Cl₄] exhibits -type packing of the d₈-ET radical cations in the conducting layer and a polymeric structure of anions, in which both the SCN groups and the Cl atoms are involved in the bridging bonds. The crystals of (d₈-ET)₂[Hg(SCN)₂Br] and the nondeuterated form (ET)₂[Hg(SCN)₂Br] are isostructural.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

New ionic liquid for inorganic cations analysis by capillary electrophoresis: 2-hydroxy- N , N , N -trimethyl-1-phenylethanaminium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (phenylcholine NTf2)

The potentialities of new ionic liquids (ILs) based on choline were evaluated as an electrophoretic medium in capillary electrophoresis for the analysis of alkaline and alkaline earth cations (Li⁺, K⁺, Na⁺, Cs⁺, Mg²⁺, Ba²⁺, Ca²⁺, and Sr²⁺) with indirect UV detection. Two types of capillaries were tested: an untreated fused silica and fused silica coated with a film of polyvinylalcohol. The coated capillary proved to be the best adapted for the metal ions studied. Moreover, it appeared that the nature of the ionic liquid anion influenced the baseline stability, and the bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide (NTf₂ ⁻) anion seemed to be the most efficient. These preliminary studies led us to synthesize a new ionic liquid, 2-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethyl-1-phenylethanaminium NTf₂ (phenylcholine NTf₂). This liquid was able to act as the running electrolyte and probe, generating the background signal in indirect UV light and consequently simplifying the electrophoretic medium. Excellent baseline stability, good reproducibility, as well as good sensitivity of detection were obtained with this new ionic liquid. Thus, 510,000 plates/meter for Li⁺ with 40 mM IL were successfully obtained. The optimal concentration of IL was 20 mM with a detection limit ranging from 28 μg L⁻¹ for Li⁺ to 1,000 μg L⁻¹ for Cs⁺. This method (phenylcholine NTf₂ with polyvinylalcohol capillary) was applied to analyze different commercial source and mineral waters. Finally, the potentiality of this ionic liquid in nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis was explored. The use of phenylcholine NTf₂ with a fused silica capillary, in pure methanol medium and in the presence of acetic acid, made it possible to obtain separation selectivity different from that obtained in aqueous medium.

Synthesis,structural characterization and bioassay screening of dimeric bis[dicarboxylatotetraorganodistannoxanes]

Reaction of bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)acetic acid with n‐Bu₂SnO in a 1:1 molar ratio gives dimeric bis[dicarboxylatotetraorganodistannoxanes], {[(n‐Bu)₂(Pz₂CHCO₂)Sn]₂O}₂ (Pz = pyrazol‐1‐yl or 3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl), which are characterized by IR and NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn) spectra and elemental analyses. The X‐ray crystal structure analyses indicate that {[(n‐Bu)₂(Pz₂CHCO₂)Sn]₂O}₂ is a centrosymmetric dimer with a cyclic Sn₂O₂ unit, in which each tin atom is situated in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. In addition, bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)acetic acid in the solid state forms a dimer through two intermolecular O? H···N hydrogen bonds. These organotin derivatives display low fungicide, insecticide and miticide activities, but display certain cytotoxicities for Hela cells in vitro. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
