Synthesis,crystal structure and magnetic behavior of a two-dimensional copper(II) complex with mellitic anion as bridging ligand

A two-dimensional complex Cu₃[C₆(COO)₆](H₂O)₁₀ · 2H₂O has been prepared and its crystal structure determined by X-ray crystallography. In the complex each mellitic anion provides four carboxylate groups as coordinate groups and, according to the coordination, the four carboxylate groups are classified as two types according to its coordinate modes. The first is that a carboxylate group coordinates a copper(II) ion via its one oxygen atom, and the second one is that a carboxylate group, as a two-dentate ligand, coordinates to two copper(II) ions. The copper(II) ions also are classified as being of two types according to their coordinate modes. The configuration around each copper(II) ion is a distorted pyramid. The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility of the complex was measured in the 4–300 K range and the magnetic data indicate that the magnetic interaction between bridging copper(II) ions displays an antiferromagnetic coupling below 42 K, while above 42 K a ferromagnetic interaction appears.     

Structure and magnetic properties of a copper(II) compound with syn–anti carboxylato- and linear Cu–Cl–Cu chloro-bridges

The copper(II) polymer Cu(2-qic)Cl (2-qic = quinoline-2-carboxylate) was synthesized and then characterized by X-ray crystal structure determination, spectroscopic and magnetic studies. The crystal structure consists of copper(II) ions with two different chromophores: four-coordinated in a square-planar geometry and five-coordinated in an environment between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal. The copper ions are bridged sequentially through the carboxylate groups in a syn–anti conformation, forming an infinite one-dimensional zigzag chain with two alternating non-equivalent copper(II) chromophores. The chloride atom acts as a single chloro-bridge link to adjacent chains, forming a ribbon type structure (1D). The variable-temperature (1.8–300 K) magnetic susceptibility data of the complex were interpreted with the dimer law using the molecular field approximation. The results obtained indicate a very weak ferromagnetic (J₂ = 0.37 cm⁻¹) interchain interaction through the syn–anti carboxylate bridge. A relatively strong antiferromagnetic interaction, transmitted through the chloro-bridge with an exchange coupling of J₁ = −57.0 cm⁻¹, dominates the magnetic properties of this complex. The magnitude and the nature of the exchange coupling are explained on the basis of the structural results.     

Mononuclear vs. binuclear carboxylates of copper(II) with 2,2′‐bipyridine: Synthesis,characterization, structural description,and properties

Two new copper(II) carboxylate complexes with 2,2′‐bipyridine and para‐nitrophenyl acetate (complex 1 ) and phenyl acetate (complex 2 ) have been synthesized; isolated in quantitative yield; and characterized using fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), electron paramagnetic resonance, absorption spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and powder and single crystal X‐ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Being mononuclear, the geometry around copper in complex 1 is a Jahn–Teller distorted octahedral, while complex 2 is binuclear with slightly distorted square pyramidal geometry around both copper ions. Powder XRD indicated several peaks in spectra of both complexes, which coincided with their theoretical spectra. FT‐IR results of the carboxylate stretching frequency were in accordance with the single crystal structure data. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of complexes 1 and 2 yielded g_┴ values of 2.06161 and 2.24623 and 1.94959, respectively, indicating a localized electron in b₁ (d _x²_–y²‐orbital). Ultra‐violet (UV)–visible spectroscopy and electrochemistry helped in characterization, as well as in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)‐binding ability of the complexes, yielding DNA‐binding constant values = 1.351 × 10⁴ and 1.361 × 10⁴ and 1.820 × 10⁴ and 2.426 × 10⁴ M^?1, respectively, for complexes 1 and 2 . The complexes demonstrate good biological potential.     

Synthesis and characterisation of new copper(II) coordination polymers constructed from pyrazine–tetrazole ligands with the formation of a water cluster

Three novel bis-tetrazole ligands (1–3) containing carboxylate functional groups on the tetrazole rings and a rigid pyrazine linker unit, for the construction of coordination polymers when coordinated to copper(II) ions, were synthesised and structurally characterised. The use of pyrazine as a rigid linker between the two tetrazole units was expected to increase the dimensionality of the solid phase polymeric network of the resulting copper(II)-containing compounds. X-ray structures of the ligands revealed the effect of the substitution position on the tetrazole ring of the ester/carboxylate groups. Higher solid phase dimensionality was successfully achieved as shown by the layered two-dimensional (2-D) coordination structure being formed when the pyrazine bis-tetrazole systems were reacted with copper(II) chloride, although not in the expected manner. There was no interaction between the pyrazine nitrogen atoms and the metal ion. Computational studies showed that this was probably due to the geometry, required by the copper ion, to be involved in the close packing between the layers. The 2-D coordination polymer based on the asymmetric substituted pyrazine bis-tetrazole, [Cu(4)(H₂O)](H₂O)₂, was further connected into a three-dimensional (3-D) coordination network through hydrogen bonding between H₂O molecules. These H₂O molecules were connected as a unique 1-D chain throughout the structure.

金属酞菁化合物在TiO2表面的分散研究

Dispersion of copper(Ⅱ) phthalocyanine (CuPc), copper(Ⅱ) phthalocyaninesulfonate (CuPcS) and cobalt(Ⅱ)phthalocyaninetetrasulfonate (CoPcTS) on the surface of titanium dioxide was investigated by XRD, XPS, FT-IR and UV-Vis techniques. Results show that interaction between CuPc and TiO2 was very weak and CuPc was difficult to disperse on the surface of the support. While partly sulfurized CuPcS could be dispersed on the surface of support through sulfo-groups and its dispersion capacity was determined to be 0.085 g CuPcS/g TiO2. Completely sulfurlzed CoPcTS could also be dispersed on the surface of TiO2 as a monolayer and its dispersion capacity was 0.12 g CoPcTS/g TiO2. Interactions of the sulfo-groups as well as the electrons of CoPcTS with the surface of TiO2 could be evidenced by FT-IR characterization. Therefore, it was suggested that CoPcTS molecules be adsorbed on the surface of TiO2 in a flat-lying mode while CuPcS in a slanting one. UV-Vis spectra show that the dispersed CuPcS and CoPcTS molecules exist in both forms of monomers and dimers.     

Synthesis and characterization of Cu(II) paddlewheel complexes possessing fluorinated carboxylate ligands

The goal of this study was to establish the relationship between the ¹⁹F NMR line broadening and the varying distance between the ¹⁹F nucleus and copper(II) ion, with the aim of gathering data that can be used to interpret ¹⁹F NMR spectra of subsequent fluorine-labeled, copper-binding proteins. Fluorinated alkyl and aryl copper(II) carboxylates were synthesized from fluorinated carboxylic acids and Cu(OH)₂. The copper(II) carboxylates were characterized using ¹⁹F NMR, IR, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. In the alkyl carboxylate compounds, the line broadening and chemical shift lessened with increased distance between the fluorine atom and the copper ions; however, in the aryl carboxylate derivatives, increased distance was not a factor in the amount of line broadening or change in chemical shift between the acid and metal salt. The compound, bis(3-(trifluoromethyl)butyrate) copper(II) (5) was found to possess the optimum combination of decreased line broadening and increased chemical shift sensitivity in ¹⁹F NMR. The crystal structures obtained for compounds 1, 2, 4, and 6 were analogous to previous copper(II) carboxylate complexes, though it is noted that compound 6, bis(5,5,5-trifluoropentanoate) copper(II) assumes a tetrameric structure lacking apical ligands, and thus enables the formation of an extended network of near-neighbor copper(II) ions.     

Synthesis,Properties and Crystal Structures of Mononuclear Copper(II) Complexes with Bis(2-Pyridylmethyl)Amino Acids

Tetradentate Schiff-base carboxylate-containing ligands, bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino-3-propionic acid (Hpmpa) and bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino-4-butyric acid (Hpmba), react with CuCl₂ to give rise to the mononuclear complexes [Cu(Hpmpa)Cl]Cl · 2H₂O (1) and [Cu(Hpmba)Cl₂]· H₂O (2). These complexes have been characterized by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopic and cyclic voltammetry. Crystal structure of (1) shows that the copper(II) ion has a distorted square-pyramidal geometry with the three nitrogen atoms of the Hpmpa ligand and one chloride anion occupying the basal plane and an oxygen atom from the carboxylate group coordinating the axial position. In (2), the coordination environment around the copper(II) ion reveals a distorted square-pyramids with three nitrogen atoms of the Hpmba ligand and one chloride anion that comprise the basal plane, whereas the apical position is filled by the chloride anion. Cyclic voltammetry of the complexes gives two one-electron waves corresponding to Cu^II/Cu^III and Cu^III/Cu^I processes. The electronic spectra and redox potentials of the complexes are influenced significantly by the N-pendant carboxylate groups.     

Synthesis,characterization, and antibacterial activities of two new copper(II) glycinate complexes incorporating 2-(4′-thiazolyl)benzimidazole/2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole

Two new complexes, [Cu(TBZ)(Gly)(H₂O)]Cl (1) and [Cu(HPB)(Gly)Cl]?·?2H₂O (2) (TBZ?=?2-(4′-thiazolyl)benzimidazole, HPB?=?2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole, and Gly?=?glycinate), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, UV-Vis, and IR methods. The complexes, structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, show a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry in which two nitrogen atoms of TBZ or HPB and the carboxylate oxygen and amino nitrogen of glycinate bind in the plane and a water or chloride coordinated at the axial site. The complexes, free ligands, and copper(II) chloride were tested for their ability to inhibit growth of Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella. The results show that the complexes have good antibacterial activities against the microorganisms compared with their ligands and copper(II) chloride.     

Unusual co-ordination behaviour of imidazole-4-acetic acid. Synthesis, crystal structure and vibrational studies of one-dimensional co-ordination polymer of zinc(II) with two different ligand forms

This work is devoted to structural and vibrational studies of novel 1D polymeric zinc(II) complex [ZnCl(ia)(Hia)]·H₂O (infinity) [Hia=imidazole-4-acetic acid]. It has been found for the first time that the ia anion is acting as bidentate bridging ligand with N1 and carboxylate oxygen atoms as binding centres. The quasi-tetrahedral coordination polyhedron is completed by one chloride anion and monodentate Hia ligand bonded with zinc(II) cation via carboxylate oxygen atom. The compound crystallise in the triclinic P space group with Z=2. The polymer chains are held together by hydrogen bonding network involving the N---H and carboxylate groups, chloride ions and water molecules. The differences between normal vibrations of two ligand forms present in the complex are discussed on the basis of the density functional calculations (DFT) performed for natural and N-deuterated isotopomers. The assignment of the observed MIR and Raman bands is given in terms of potential energy distribution (PED).     

Syntheses,Spectral, Thermal and Electrochemical Studies of 3-Carboxylacetonehydroxamic Acid and its Iron(Ii), Cobalt(Ii), Nickel(Ii), Copper(Ii) and Zinc(Ii) Complexes

3-Carboxylacetonehydroxamic acid (CAHA) and its iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis and IR spectra and magnetic susceptibility. The pK _a1 and pK _a2 values of the ligand in aqueous solution were found to be 6.5 ± 0.1 and 8.6 ± 0.1, which correspond to dissociation of carboxyl and hydroxamic protons, respectively. The dianion CAH acts as a tetradentate ligand through the hydroxamate and carboxylate groups and coordinates to the divalent metal ions, forming coordination polymers with a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1 : 1 in the solid state. FTIR spectra and thermal decomposition of the ligand and its metal complexes were recorded and briefly discussed. The electrochemical behavior of the complexes was investigated by square wave voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry at neutral pH. In contrast to the solid state, the iron(II) and copper(II) cations form stable complex species with a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1 : 2 in solution. The iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes show two-electron irreversible reduction behavior, while the copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes undergo quasi-reversible and reversible electrode reactions, respectively. The stability constants of the complexes were determined by square wave voltammetry.     

Physico‐Chemical Studies on Cu(II) Complexes of Acrylate Chelating Polymers

Abstract

Metal chelating polymers containing amide and carboxylic groups were prepared by gamma‐radiation polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) monomers in the presence of polyacrylamide (PAM). The resins obtained were loaded by copper ions and characterized by FT‐IR spectroscopy, electron spin resonance (ESR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetery (DSC). The IR spectra indicated a lower frequencies shift in the carbonyl bands due to copper ion chelation with carbonyl groups in the polymer resins. Also, the IR spectra reveal a splitting in the band at 3600–3200?cm^?1 that due to the coordination of the NH and OH groups with copper ions. The ESR spectrum was anisotropic with hyperfine structure having the following values 2.3808 and 2.07218 for g _∥ and g _⊥, respectively. These spectra for copper ions have square planar coordination with two nitrogen and two oxygen atoms. TGA and DSC studies show that radiation crosslinking and complexation with copper ion increase the thermal stability of PAM–AA resins. Meanwhile, resin complexes with copper ion showed a higher thermal stability than pure resin. The increase in thermal stability may be correlated with the metal ions coordination with NH and OH groups; this coordination prevents the splitting of ammonia and water molecules. Also, the metal ions providing a coordination crosslink between polymer chains could increase thermal stability.     

Competitive complexation in the copper(II) chloride-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-dimethylformamide-Aerosil system

Competitive complexation in the copper(II) chloride-N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)-Aerosil system was studied by IR spectroscopy. It was found that adsorption from organic solutions containing copper(II) chloride and DMF resulted in the formation of the following three types of DMF complexes: self-associates of DMF, DMF complexes with surface hydroxyl groups, and DMF complexes with Cu(II) ions. The removal of DMF resulted in the sequential degradation of, initially, self-associates; next, complexes with silanol groups; and, finally, complexes with copper ions.Translated from Kinetika i Kataliz, Vol. 45, No. 6, 2004, pp. 917–920.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Golubeva, Zubareva.     

Noncovalent interactions and copper(II) coordination in systems containing l-aspartic acid and triamines

Interactions between l-aspartic acids (Asp) and polyamines (PA): 3,3-tri (1,7-diamino-4-azaheptane) or spermidine (Spd, 1,8-diamino-4-azaoctane) are investigated in metal-free systems as well as between Cu(II) ions in ternary systems with Asp and 3,3-tri or Spd. The composition and stability constants of the complexes formed have been determined by a potentiometric method, while the centres of interactions in the ligands have been identified by NMR, UV–Vis, IR, and EPR spectroscopy. The centres are the potential sites of metal ion coordination. In the Asp/PA systems, formation of molecular complexes (Asp)H_x(PA) was observed. Comparison of the log K_e of the adducts showed that the stability of the adducts significantly depends on the steric factor contributed by the length of PA. In the (Asp)H₃(PA) species, an inversion effect was observed where one of the amine groups (deprotonated) of 3,3-tri or Spd becomes a negative reaction centre and reacts with the protonated amino group of Asp. Therefore, depending on pH, the amino group of the PA can act as a positive or negative reaction centre. In the ternary systems of Cu(II)/Asp/PA the heteroligand-protonated complexes and molecular complexes are formed. In the molecular complexes ML?L′, where L = Asp and L′ = PA, the metallation involves oxygen atoms from the carboxyl groups and the amino group of the amino acid, while the fully protonated PA is located outside the inner coordination sphere and reacts with the anchoring binary complex CuH(Asp) or Cu(Asp). Introduction of metal ions into the Asp/3,3-tri system was found to change the character of the interaction and in the Cu(Asp)H₂(3,3-tri) complex, the oxygen atoms from the Asp carboxyl groups do not take part in coordination.     

Influence of TiO2 impregnated with a novel copper(II) carboxylic porphyrin and its application in photocatalytic degradation of 4-Nitrophenol

A novel 5,15-di-[4-carboxylatomethoxy]phenyl-10,20-diphenylporphyrin, its copper complex and the corresponding metalloporphyrin-TiO₂ photocatalyst were synthesized and characterized by DRS, SEM, XRD, and FT–IR. The photocatalytic effects of anataseTiO₂ impregnated with this copper(II) porphyrin was investigated by photodegradation of 4-nitrophenol(4-NP) in aqueous solution under Xenon lamp irradiation. The results indicated that the photoactivity of copper(II) porphyrin-TiO₂ composite was evidently enhanced by the interaction between carboxyl of the porphyrin molecule and hydroxyls anchored on the TiO₂. Futhermore, the copper(II) carboxylic porphyrin displayed good adsorption behavior and activity of the dye-sensized TiO₂ system.     

Copper Complexes of Dicarboxy‐Functionalized Tetramethylcyclam. Crystal Structures of Complexes with the Axial Ligands Perchlorate,Chloride, and Iodide

6,13‐Dicarboxy‐1,4,8,11‐tetramethyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclotetradecane‐copper(II) perchlorate ( 2 a ) was synthesized via one‐step cyclocondensation from bis(N,N′‐dimethyl‐ ethylenediamine‐copper(II) perchlorate, formaldehyde and malonic acid. Anion exchange yielded the analogous copper(II) chloride ( 2 b ) and iodide ( 2 c ) complexes. Crystal structures of 2 a – 2 c show a square‐planar N₄‐co‐ordination of the copper(II) ion with RRSS configuration of the nitrogens and perchlorate, chloride or iodide ions weakly co‐ordinated axially. Relating to the macroring, the carboxy groups are in trans‐position. In 2 a , the packing is typical of parallel strands of complex subunits effected by dimerization of the carboxy groups, while in 2 b and 2 c formation of the supramolecular strands involve hydrogen bond interactions between carboxy groups and halide anions.     

Supramolecular Open‐Framework of a Bipyridinium‐Carboxylate Based Copper Complex with High and Reversible Water Uptake

The rigid zwitterionic ligand 1,1′‐bis(4‐carboxylatphenyl)‐(4,4′‐bipyridinium) (pc1) and copper(II) ions give rise to a linear complex [Cu(pc1)₂(H₂O)₄]²⁺, which self assembles in a pseudo tetragonal supramolecular arrangement leading to the supramolecular open‐framework [Cu(pc1)₂(H₂O)₄](Cl)₂ · 8H₂O exhibiting an open structure including water molecules and chlorides in pores. The dehydration of this material occurs at relatively low temperature (70 °C) and results in structure modification accompanied by shrinking of the crystals. Characterization of the obtained material by FT‐IR spectroscopy reveals appearance of coordinated carboxylates groups, which may indicate the formation of coordination polymer after dehydration. Water adsorption (maximum uptake 0.23 g H₂O per g) on dehydrated material allows to restore the initial structure. A large hysteresis in water adsorption‐desorption isotherm is characteristic of a significant modification of the structure during the hydration‐dehydration cycle which is in line with the structural transition determined from thermodiffractometry and FT‐IR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis, characterisation and thermal analysis of copper (II) and chromium (II, III) hydrazine carboxylates

Copper(II) hydrazine carboxylate monohydrate, Cu(N₂H₃COO)₂·H₂O and chromium (II, III) hydrazine carboxylate hydrates, Cu(N₂H₃COO)₂·H₂O and Cu(N₂H₃COO)₂·3H₂O have been prepared and characterised by chemical analysis, IR, visible spectra and magnetic measurements. Thermal analysis of the copper complex yields a mixture of copper metal and copper oxide. Chromium complexes on thermal decomposition yield Cr₂O₃ as residue. Decomposition of chromium(HI) complex under hydrothermal conditions yield CrOOH, a precursor to CrO₂.     

Low-dimensional quantum magnetic systems: Synthesis,structure and magnetic behavior of (2,5-dimethylpyrazine)copper(II) chloride and synthesis and magnetic behavior of bis(2,6-dimethylpyrazine)copper(II) chloride

The synthesis, X-ray structure and magnetic susceptibility of (2,5-dimethylpyrazine)copper(II) chloride (1), and the synthesis and magnetic susceptibility of (2,6-dimethylpyrazine)₂copper(II) chloride (2), are reported. Compound 1 crystallizes in the space group P2₁/c as a coordination polymer of Cu(II) ions bridged by 2,5-methylpyrazine. The resulting chains are magnetically linked via short chloride–chloride contacts. The magnetic susceptibility responds as a uniform Heisenberg chain (2J/k = −20(5) K) with a phase transition to three dimensional order near 5 K. Susceptibility data for compound 2 show that the compound is a linear chain coordination polymer with the copper ions linked by bihalide bridges. A fit to the model for a uniform Heisenberg chain yields 2J = −22.7(2) K.     

Structural diversification of the coordination mode of divalent metals with 1,3-propanediaminetetraacetate (1,3-pdta): The missing crystal structure of the s-block metal complex [Sr2(1,3-pdta)(H2O)6]·H2O

This paper reports the synthesis and X-ray characteristics of the missing homonuclear s-block metal complex {[Sr₂(1,3-pdta)(H₂O)₆]·H₂O}_n. In the title compound, the hexadentate 1,3-propanediaminetetraacetate (1,3-pdta) ligand joins to two Sr(II) centers via the diamine chain. Moreover, each Sr(II) is bridged through two carboxylate O atoms and a water molecule to two neighboring Sr(II) ions. The coordination sphere around each Sr(II) ion consists of one diamine nitrogen, four carboxylate oxygens and four water molecules. Comparison with the previously reported M(II)-1,3-pdta complexes reveals that increasing of the ion size results in the incorporation of water molecules into its first coordination sphere and consequent increase of the coordination number (C.N.) from six to seven or eight, while keeping the hexadentate coordination mode of the ligand. Further increase of the metal ion size leads to the loss of the chelating properties of the diamine and formation of a bis-tridentate complex. Associated with it is the change in the binding mode of the carboxylate groups. This forms the basis for classification of divalent metal 1,3-pdta complexes into five distinct structural classes. Additionally, in the present study X-ray powder diffraction and IR spectroscopy were used to distinguish the different structural types of M(II)-1,3-pdta complexes, including Ba[Ba(1,3-pdta)]·2H₂O which has been used for their preparation.
