Synthesis and characterization of some novel triphenylarsenic(V) derivatives of monofunctional bidentate 2,2‐disubstituted benzothiazoline ligands

A series of triphenylarsenic(V) derivatives Ph₃As(OPrⁱ)[SC₆H₄N:C(R)CH₂C(O)R′] have been synthesized by the reactions of triphenylarsenic(V)‐ isoproproxide, Ph₃As(OPrⁱ)₂ with the corresponding 2,2‐disubstituted benzothiazolines of the type (where R = CH₃, R′ = CH₃( 1 ); R = CH₃, R′ = C₆H₅( 2 ); R = CH₃, R′ = 4‐CH₃C₆H₄( 3 ); R = CH₃, R′ = 4‐ClC₆H₄( 4 ); and R = CF₃, R′ = C₆H₅( 5 )) in equimolar ratio in refluxing benzene solution. Molecular weight measurements of these complexes show their monomeric nature in solution. Characterization of these compounds using elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, and spectral studies (IR as well as NMR (¹H and ¹³C)) shows the monofunctional bidentate nature of the ligands and a hexacoordination around the central arsenic atom in these organoarsenic(V) derivatives. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Inhaltsübersicht. Triorganoantimon- und Triorganobismutdicarboxylate R₃M[O₂C(CH₂)ⁿ-2-C₄H₃X]₂ (M = Sb, R = CH₃, C₆H₁₁, C₆H₅, 4-CH₃OC₆H₄; M = Bi, R = C₆H₅, 4-CH₃C₆H₄; n = 0, X = O, S, NH, NCH₃. M = Sb, R = CH₃, C₆H₅; M = Bi, R = C₆H₅; n = 1, X = O, S. M = Sb, R = C₆H₁₁, n = 1, X = S; R = 4-FC₆H₄, n = 0, X = O, S, NCH₃; R = 2,4,6-(CH₃)₃C₆H₂, n = 0, X = O, S, NH) wurden durch Reaktionen von R₃Sb(OH)₂ (R = CH₃, C₆H₁₁, 2,4,6-(CH₃)₃C₆H₂), R₃SbO (R = C₆H₅, 4-CH₃OC₆H₄, 4-FC₆H₄) bzw. R₃BiCO₃ mit den entsprechenden fünfgliedrigen heterocyclischen Carbonsäuren 2-C₄H₃X(CH₂)_nCOOH dargestellt. Auf der Basis schwingungsspektroskopischer Daten wird für alle Verbindungen eine trigonal bipyramidale Umgebung vom M (zwei O-Atome von einzähnigen Carboxylatliganden in den apikalen, drei C-Atome von R in den äquatorialen Positionen) vorgeschlagen, ferner eine schwache Wechselwirkung zwischen O(=C) jeder Carboxylatgruppe und M. Die Kristallstrukturbestimmung von (C₆H₅)₃Sb(O₂C–2-C₄H₃S)₃ stützt diesen Vorschlag. Die Verbindung kristallisiert triklin [Raumgruppe P$1; a = 891,8(14), b = 1058,2(12), c = 1435,6(9) pm, α = 68,53(8), β = 85,47(9), γ = 85,99(11)°; Z = 2; d(ber.) = 1,607 Mg m^–3; V(Zelle) = 1255,6 ų; Strukturbestimmung anhand von 3947 unabhängigen Reflexen (F_o > 3σ(F²_o)), R(ungewichtet) = 0,037]. Sb bindet drei C₆H₅-Gruppen in der äquatorialen Ebene [mittlerer Abstand Sb–C: 211,1(5)pm] und zwei einzähnige Carboxylatliganden in den apikalen Positionen einer verzerrten trigonalen Bipyramide [mittlerer Abstand Sb–O: 212,0(4) pm]. Aus den relativ kurzen Sb – O(=C)-Abständen [274,4(4) und 294,9(4) pm] und aus der Aufweitung des dem O(=C)-Atom nächsten äquatorialen C–Sb–C-Winkels auf 145,9(2)° [andere C-Sb-C-Winkel: 104,4(2), 109,5(2)°] wird auf schwache Sb–O(=C)-Koordination geschlossen. Schließlich wird eine Korrelation zwischen dem (+, –)I-Effekt des Organoliganden R an M (M = Sb, Bi) und der Stärke der M–O(=C)-Koordination in den Dicarboxylaten R₃M[O₂C(CH₂)_n–2-C₄H₃X]₂ vorgeschlagen. Triorganoanümony and Triorganobismuth Derivatives of Carbonic Acids of Five-membered Heterocycles. Crystal and Molecular Structure of (C₆H₅)₃Sb(O₂C–2-C₄H₃S)₂ Triorganoantimony- and triorganobismuth dicarboxylates R₃M[O₂C(CH₂)_n–2-C₄H₃X]₂ (M = Sb, R = CH₃, C₆H₁₁, C₆H₅, 4-CH₃OC₆H₄; M = Bi, R = C₆H₅, 4-CH₃C₆H₄; n = 0, X = O, S, NH, NCH₃. M = Sb, R = CH₃, C₆H₅; M = Bi, R = C₆H₅; n = 1, X = O, S. M = Sb, R = C₆H₁₁, n = 1, X = S; R = 4-FC₆H₄, n = 0, X = O, S, NCH₃; R = 2,4,6-(CH₃)₃C₆H₂, n = 0, X = O, S, NH) have been prepared by reaction of R₃Sb(OH)₂ (R = CH₃, C₆H₁₁; 2,4,6-(CH₃)₃C₆H₂), R₃SbO (R = C₆H₅, 4-CH₃OC₆H₄, 4-FC₆H₄) or R₃BiCO₃ with the appropriate five-membered heterocyclic carboxylic acid. From vibrational data for all compounds a trigonal bipyramidal environment around M (two O atoms of unidendate carboxylate ligands in apical, three C atoms (of R) in equatorial positions) is proposed and also an additional weak interaction of O(=C) of each carboxylate group and M. The crystal structure determination of Ph₃Sb(O₂C–2-C₄H₃S)₂ gives additional prove to this proposal. It crystallizes triclinic [space group P$1; a = 891.8(14), b = 1058.2(12), c = 1435.6(9) pm, α = 68.53(8), β = 85.47(9), γ = 85.99(11)°; Z = 2; d(calc.) = 1.607 Mg m^–3; V_cell = 1255.6 ų; structure determination from 3 947 independent reflexions (F_o > 3σ(F²_o)), R(unweighted) = 0.037]. Sb is bonding to three C₆H₅ groups in the equatorial plane [mean distance Sb–C: 211.1(5) pm] and two unidentate carboxylate ligands in the apical positions of a distorted trigonal bipyramid [mean distance Sb–O: 212.0(4) pm]. From the relatively short Sb–O(=C) distances [274.4(4) and 294.9(4) pm] and from the enlarged value of the equatorial C–Sb–C angle next to the O(=C) atom [145.9(2)°; other C–Sb–C angles: 104.4(2), 109.5(2)°] additional weak Sb–O(=C) coordination is inferred. Finally a correlation between the (+, –) I-effect of the organic ligands It at M and the strength of the M–O = C interaction is suggested.

O distances: 218.5(2), 209.9(2)/212.1(3), 213.2(3) pm]. In (C₆H₅)₃Sb(O₂C-2-C₅H₄N)₂ there is a short Sb? O(?C) and a short Sb? N contact [Sb? O: 272.1(2), Sb? N: 260.2(2) pm] and distoritions of the equatorial angles [C? Sb? C: 99.2(1)°, 158.2(1)°, 102.0(1).] and of the axial angle [O? Sb?

Studies on organophosphorus compounds XLVIII Synthesis of Dithioesters from P,S-Containing Reagents and Carboxylic Acids and Their Derivatives

2,4-Bismethylthio-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane 2,4- disulfide, IIa, is prepared from 0,0-dimethyldithiophosphoric acid, Ia, and P₄S₁₀ at 160°C. 2,4-Bis(4-phenoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4- dithiadiphsophetane 2,4-disulfide, IIc, and 2,4-bis(4-phenylthiolophenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane 2,4-disulfide, IId, are prepared at l60°C from P₄ S₁₀ and diphenylether and diphenylsulfides, respectively. Carboxylic acids RCOOH(R = CH₃ C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, C₆H₅CH₂, C₆H₈) react with compound Ia at 130°C to give the corresponding methyl dithioesters. Carboxylic acids RCOOH (R = C₆H₈-CH₂, C₆H₈) react with compound Ib at 200°C for 15 min to give the corresponding ethyl dithioesters, while low boiling acids (R = CH₃, C₂H₈, n-C₃H₇) yielded mixtures of the corresponding ethyl dithioester and ethyl carboxylate. Carboxylic acid chlorides RCOCl (R = ClCH₂, C₂H₅, t-C₄H₅ C₆H₅CH₂, C₆H₅, P-NO₂C₆H₄) react with compound IIa at 80°C to give the corresponding methyl dithioesters in good yields. S-Substituted thioesters react with IIC at 85°C to give the corresponding dithioesters in good yields. Dihydro2(3H)-furanone, VI, and 5-methyl-2(3H)-furanone, VII, react with IIa at 80°C; to dihydro-2(3H)-thiophenethione, VIII and 2,2'-dithiobis(5-methyl thiophene),IX, respectively. Also XI reacts with IIa,IIc, and IId to give VIII in nearly quantitative yields.     

SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERISATION OF DIORGANOANTIMONY(III) COMPLEXES OF THIOSEMICARBAZONES

Abstract

The interaction of the sodium salts of thiosemicarbazones with diphenylantimony chloride in 1:1 molar ratio in benzene solution lead to the formation of derivatives, Ph₂Sb[SC(NH₂)NN: C(R)R′] where R = H; R′ [dbnd] C₆H₅, CH₃OC₆H₄, C₆H₅CH[dbnd]CH, and R′ [dbnd] CH₃; R′[dbnd]C₆H₅, CH₃OC₆H₄, C₆H₄CH₃, respectively. The resulting complexes have been characterised on the basis of elemental analyses and molecular weight determination. The mode of bonding of the ligands with the metal atom has been proposed on the basis of I.R., ¹H and ¹³C NMR studies. All these ligands are found to behave as monofunctional bidentate moiety in these complexes.     

Unique Bridging Function of the Triazole Core in Copper(II) Chloride Complexes with 1‐Allylbenzotriazole

During alternating‐current electrochemical synthesis of copper(I) π‐complex of [CuCl{C₆H₄N₃(C₃H₅)}] composition, starting from ethanol solution, containing CuCl₂·2H₂O and 1‐allylbenzotriazole, green crystals of intermediate [Cu^II₃Cl₆{C₆H₄N₃(C₃H₅)}₄] ( I ) compound has been obtained upon 24 h. After some days these crystals transform into red ones of [Cu^II₂Cl₄{C₆H₄N₃(C₃H₅)}₃] ( II ). Both compounds were X‐Ray structurally investigated. Crystals of I are triclinic, sp.gr. a = 9.1329(9), b = 10.0352(4), c = 12.239(3) Å, α = 76.443(13), β = 84.470(14), γ = 76.808(7)°, V = 1060.5(3) ų, R = 0.0414 for 3311 reflections. II : monoclinic, C2/c, a = 13.828(1), b = 15.044(2), c = 10.702(1) Å, β = 91.36(1)°, V = 2225.7(4) ų, R = 0.050 for 1495 reflections. In both compounds each benzotriazole core coordinates two copper atoms using two nitrogen atoms in 2 and 3 positions. Isolated Cu₃Cl₆ fragments in I are condensed along [001] direction into infinite chains [CuCl₂]_n in II. Finally, red crystals of II transform into colorless ones of the earlier studied copper(I) π‐complex of CuCl·C₆H₄N₃(C₃H₅) composition.     

Reactions of alkylcobalt complexes containing a tetradentate nitrogen-donating ligand

The reactions of RCo(BDM1,3pn)(H₂O) with light, heat, acids, electrophiles and nucleophiles were studied. (HBDM1,3pn is a mononegative, tetradentate dioxime-diimine ligand formed by condensing 2,3-butanedionemonoxime with 1,3-propanediamine in a 2/1 molar ratio; R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, and C₆H₃CH_2-) Pyrolysis and photolysis of the alkyl complexes result in a cobalt(II) complex (anaerobic conditions) along with alkenes and alkanes. The major organic products from solid state pyrolysis at 200°C or photolysis in water are CH₄ (R = CH₃), C₂H₄ (R = C₂H₅), C₃H₆ (R = n-C₃H₇), C₄H₈ (R = n-C₄H₉) and (C₆H₅CH₂)₂ (R = C₆H₅CH₂). No alkyl—cobalt bond cleavage occurs with acids or bases in most cases. Two exceptions are the reactions with 3 M HNO₃ at 25°C and with 1 M NaOH at 52°C. Electrophiles like I₂ cleave the alkyl—cobalt bond forming RI and Co^III (BDM1,3pn)I₂. Nucleophilic reagents (N^-) displace the H₂O trans to the alkyl group to form RCo(BDM1,3pn)(N), but do not dealkylate the alkyl complex under the reaction conditions studied.     

Mono‐ and heterodi‐nuclear complexes of aluminium: synthesis,characterization and antifungal activity

Some new types of mononuclear derivatives, AlL(1–4)L(1–4)H ( 1a–1d ) of aluminium were synthesized by the reaction of Al(OPrⁱ)₃ and LH₂ [XC(NYOH)CHC(R)OH], X = CH₃, Y = (CH₂)₂, R = CH₃(L1H₂); X = C₆H₅, Y = (CH₂)₂, R = CH₃(L2H₂); X = CH₃, Y = (CH₂)₃, R = CH₃(L3H₂); X = C₆H₅, Y = (CH₂)₃, R = CH₃(L4H₂) in 1:2 molar ratio in refluxing benzene. Reactions of AlL(1–4)L(1–4)H with hexamethyldisilazane in 2:1 molar ratio yielded some new ligand bridged heterodinuclear derivatives AlL(1–4)L(1–4)SiMe₃ ( 2a – 2d ). All these newly synthesized derivatives were characterized by elemental analysis and molecular weight measurements. Tentative structures were proposed on the basis of IR and NMR spectra (¹H, ¹³C, 27 Al and ²⁹Si) and FAB‐mass studies. Schiff base ligands and their mono‐ and heterodi‐nuclear derivatives with aluminium have been screened for fungicidal activities. These compounds showed significant antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and A. flavus. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Triphenylantimony(v) Derivatives of 2,2-Disubstituted Benzothiazoline Ligands: Synthetic and Spectroscopic Studies

The reactions of triphenylantimony(v) isopropoxide with 2,2-disubstituted benzothiazolines in a 1:2 molar ratio in refluxing benzene solution yielded the corresponding triphenylantimony(v) derivatives (1–5) of the type Ph₃Sb[SC₆H₄N: C(R)CH₂C(O)R']₂, [Where, R═CH₃, R'═CH₃(1); R═CH₃, R'═C₆H₅(2); R═CH₃, R'═4-CH₃C₆H₄(3); R═CH₃, R'═4-ClC₆H₄(4); and R═CF₃, R'═C₆H₅(5)]. All of these newly synthesized derivatives have been characterized by elemental analyses and molecular weight measurements as well as IR and NMR [¹H and ¹³C] spectral studies. On the basis of spectral data, seven-coordination around central antimony atom has been assigned to these derivatives.     

Non‐Isomorphic Chlorine—Bromine Substitution in the Copper(I) Halide π‐Complexes with 1‐Allyl‐4‐aminopyridinium

By alternating‐current electrochemical synthesis crystals of {Cu[H₂NC₅H₄N(C₃H₅)]Br₂} ˙ H₂O ( I ), {Cu[H₂NC₅H₄N(C₃H₅)]Br_0.65Cl_1.35} ˙ H₂O ( II ) and {Cu[H₂NC₅H₄N(C₃H₅)]Cl₂} ( III ) π‐complexes have been obtained and structurally investigated. The I and II compounds are isostructural and crystallize in a monoclinic sp. gr. P2₁/c, I : a = 7.359(2)Å, b = 12.3880(6)Å, c = 13.637(3)Å, β = 107.03(1)°, V = 1188.7(4)ų, Z = 4 for C₈H₁₃N₂OBr₂Cu composition, R = 0.0293 for 2140 reflections. II : a = 7.2771(6)Å, b = 12.3338(3)Å, c = 13.4366(7)Å, β = 107.632(2)°, V = 1149.3(1)ų, Z = 4 for C₈H₁₃N₂Br_0.65Cl_1.35Cu composition, R = 0.0463 for 2185 reflections. Metal and halogen atoms form centrosymmetric Cu₂X₄ dimers. Each copper atom is surrounded by three halogen atoms and by a weakly bonded C=C‐group of the onium moiety. Isolated {Cu[H₂NC₅H₄N(C₃H₅)]}₂X₄ dimers are combined into a three‐dimensional network due to a bridging function of water molecules via a system of rather strong hydrogen bonds. Chlorine derivative III crystallizes in another structure type: sp. gr. C2/c, a = 21.568(7)Å, b = 7.260(2)Å, c = 13.331(3)Å, β = 95.65(2)°, V = 2077(2)ų, Z = 8 for C₈H₁₁N₂Cl₂Cu composition. Copper atom, included in CuCl₂^— isolated fragment, is coordinated to a C=C‐bond of ligand moiety. N‐H…Cl hydrogen bonds unite Cu[H₂NC₅H₄N(C₃H₅)]Cl₂ subunits into infinite ribbons. π‐Interaction in III appears to be more effective than in I and II .     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktionen von Vanadiumsäureestern VO(OR)3: Umesterung und Reaktion mit Oxalsäure

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactions of Vanadium Acid Esters VO(OR)₃: Transesterification and Reaction with Oxalic Acid The reaction of tert.‐Butyl Vanadate VO(O‐tert.Bu)₃ ( 1 ) with H₂C₂O₄ in the primary alcohols ethanol and propanol results in the formation of (ROH)(RO)₂OV^V(C₂O₄)V^VO(OR)₂(HOR) (with R = C₂H₅ 2 and R = C₃H₇ 3 ). Compounds 2 and 3 are the first structurally characterized neutral, binuclear oxo‐oxalato‐complexes with pentavalent vanadium. The two vanadium atoms are connected by a bisbidentate oxalate group. The {VO₆} coordination at each vanadium site is completed by a terminal oxo group, an alcohol ligand and two alcoxide groups. The binuclear molecules are connected to chains by hydrogen bonding. In the case of 2 a reversible isomorphic phase transition in the temperature range of –90 °C to –130 °C is observed. From methanolic solution the polymeric Methyl Vanadate [VO(OMe)₃] ( 4 ) was obtained by transesterification. A report on the crystal structures of 1 , 2 and 3 as well as a redetermination of the structure of 4 is given. Crystal data: 1, orthorhombic, Cmc2₁, a = 16.61(2) Å, b = 9.274(6) Å, c = 10.784(7) Å, V = 1662(2) ų, Z = 4, d_c = 1.144 gcm^–1; 2 (–90 ° C) , monoclinic, I2/a, a = 33.502(4) Å, b = 7.193(1) Å, c = 15.903(2) Å und β = 143.060(3)°, V = 2303(1) ų, Z = 4, d_c = 1.425 gcm^–1; 2 (–130 ° C) , monoclinic, I2/a, a = 33.274(4) Å, b = 7.161(1) Å, c = 47.554(5) Å, β = 142.798(2)°, V = 6851(1) ų, Z = 12, d_c = 1.438 gcm^–1; 3 , triklinic, P1, a = 9.017(5) Å, b = 9.754(5) Å, c = 16.359(9) Å, α = 94.87(2)°, β = 93.34(2)°, γ = 90.42(2)°, V = 1431(1) ų, Z = 2, d_c = 1.340 gcm^–1; 4 , triklinic, P1, a = 8.443(2) Å, b = 8.545(2) Å, c = 9.665(2) Å, α = 103.202(5)°, β = 96.476(5)°, γ = 112.730(4)°, V = 610.2(2)ų, Z = 4, d_c = 1.742 gcm^–1.     

Supermesityl-stabilisierte Iminoborane. III

Supermesityl stabilized Iminoboranes. III New Iminoboranes R? B?N? R′ (R = 2,4,6(t-Bu)₃C₆H₂), IIa – IIf , were obtained by base-induced HF-elimination from RBF? NHR′ ( Ia-Ie ) or directly from RBF₂ and lithiated H₂NR′ (for IIf ). Compounds II exhibit a differentiated behaviour upon thermal treatment depending on R′. While IIa (R′ = H) immediately reacts to give the corresponding benzo[1]borolane IIIa , the dimeric diazadiboretidine is formed from IIb (R′ = Me) at 100°C; IIc (R = Et) and IId (R = C₆H₅) deliver the benzo[1]borolanes IIIc and IIId when they are heated to 180°C (in melt). IIe (R = 2,6(i-Pr)C₆H₃) and IIf (R = adamantyl) are stable at 250°C. All compounds were characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopically (MS, IR, NMR: ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹B, ¹⁹F and in part ¹⁵N).     

Halide and complex halogeno anions as salts of oxinate chelates of titanium(IV)

(η⁵-Cyclopentadienyl)(η⁵-pyrrolyl)titanium(IV) dichloride, (η⁵-indenyl)-(η⁵-pyrrolyl)titanium(IV) dichloride and (η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)(η⁵-indenyl)-titanium(IV) dichloride, when treated with 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) in aqueous medium form ionic derivatives of the type, [(η⁵-R)(η⁵-R′)TiL]⁺ Cl^- (R = C₅H₅, C₉H₇, R′ = C₄H₄N; R = C₅H₅, R′ = C₉H₇; L is the conjugate base of (oxine). A number of halide and complex halogeno anions present in aqueous solution were isolated as salts of these ionic complexes giving derivatives of the type, [(η⁵-R)(η⁵-R′)TiL]⁺ X^- (X = Br^-, I^-, ZnCl₃(H₂O)^-, CdCl₄^2-, HgCl₃^-). Conductivity measurements in nitrobenzene solution indicate that these complexes are electrolytes. Both the IR and ¹H NMR spectral studies demonstrate that the ligand L is chelating. Consequently there is tetrahedral coordination about the titanium(IV) ion.     

Synthesis and characterization of some bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV) complexes with internally functionalized oximes(LH): sol–gel transformations of Cp2TiCl2, Cp2TiClL and Cp2TiL2 to nano‐sized anatase titania

Some bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV) complexes of the type [Cp₂TiCl_2?n{L}_n] {where, n = 1 or 2; L = ONC(R)Ar; R = H or CH₃ and Ar = C₅H₄N‐2, C₄H₃O‐2 or C₄H₃S‐2} have been synthesized by the metathetical reactions of Cp₂TiCl₂ with the sodium salt of internally functionalized oximes in 1:1 and 1:2 stoichiometry in anhydrous THF. All these red to brown colored solid derivatives have been characterized by elemental analyses, FT‐IR and NMR (¹H and ¹³C{¹H}) spectral studies. The FAB mass spectra of some representative derivatives indicate their monomeric nature. Oximato ligands in all the complexes appear to bind the titanium via N and O in a dihapto ( ‐N, O) manner in the solid state. Thermogravimetric curves of [Cp₂TiCl{ONC(CH₃)C₅H₄N‐2}] and [Cp₂Ti{ONC(CH₃)C₅H₄N‐2}₂] suggest the formation of hybrid materials CpTiO(Cl) and Cp₂TiO, respectively, as the final products at 900 °C under nitrogen atmosphere. Sol–gel transformations of Cp₂TiCl₂, [Cp₂TiCl{ONC(CH₃)C₅H₄N‐2}] and [Cp₂Ti{ONC(CH₃)C₅H₄N‐2}₂] yielded titania a–c, respectively, at low sintering temperature (600 °C). The powder XRD patterns, IR as well as Raman spectra of all these oxides indicate the formation of nano‐sized anatase phase. The SEM images of titania a–c indicate agglomers like surface morphologies. The absorption spectra of a–c exhibit an energy band gap in the range of 3.47–3.71 eV.

Organische Phosphorverbindungen XXXVII. Darstellung und Eigenschaften von Bis-(dialkoxyphosphonyl-methyl)-, Bis-(alkoxyphosphinyl-methyl)-und Bis-(oxophosphoranyl-methyl)-phosphinsäureestern sowie der entsprechenden Säuren [1]

Bis-chloromethyl-alkyl-and - aryl-phosphine oxides, (CICH₂₎₂P(O)R, which are obtained by reaction of (CICH₂₎₂P(O)Cl with GRIGNARD reagents, undergo a MICHAELIS -ARBUSOV reaction when heated for several hours with trivalent phosphorus esters (phosphites, phosphonites, or phosphinites) at 170–180°C. The reaction affords bis-(dialkyloxyphosphonyl-methyl)-, bis (alkyloxyphosphinyl-methyl)-, and bis-(oxophosphoranyl-methyl)-, -alkyl- or -aryl-phosphine oxides, R(O)P[CH₂P(O)R′R″]₂ R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₈H₁₇, n-C₁₂H₂₅, C₆H₅; R′ and R″ = C₂H₅O, C₄H₉O, C₆H₅, CH₃ in good yields. Conversion of the compounds containing alkyloxy groups to the free acids is achieved by refluxing with conc. HCl. Bis-(dihydroxyphosphonyl-methyl)-dodecylphosphine oxide, n-C₁₂H₂₅(O)P[CH₂P(O) (OH)_2]2, obtained by hydrolysis of the all-ethyl ester, titrates in aqueous solution as a tetrabasic acid with breaks at pH = 4 (two equivalents), pH = 6,9 (one equivalent) and pH = 9,6 (one equivalent). This acid, its disodium salt (m. p. 405–410°) and its tetrasodium salt (m.p. > 460°) are surface active and are excellent chelating agents. The ¹H- and ³¹P-NMR. spectra of all the compounds prepared are discussed.     

Cobalt, nickel, and copper coordination compounds with 3-phenylpropenal benzoylhydrazone

3-Phenylpropenal benzoylhydrazone (HL) reacts with cobalt, nickel, and copper chlorides, nitrates, and acetates to give coordination compounds MX₂ · nH₂O [M = Co, Ni, Cu; X = Cl, NO₃, HL = C₆H₅CH=CHCH=NNHC(O)C₆H₅; n = 0, 2] and ML₂ · nH₂O (M = Co, Ni, Cu; n = 1–3). Complexes MALCI (M = Co, Ni, Cu) were obtained by these reactions in the presence of amines (A = C₅H₅N, 2-CH₃C₅H₄N, 3-CH₃C₅H₄N, 4-CH₃C₅H₄N). All the compounds have a monomeric structure. Azomethine (HL) in them behaves as a bidentate N,O-ligand. Thermolysis of the complexes involves the stages of dehydration (70–90°C), deaquation (145–155°C) or deamination (145–185°C), and complete thermal decomposition (330–490°C).     

4,4′‐Tri­methyl­enedipyridinium bis­[carboxy­methyl­phos­pho­nate(1–)]: a three‐dimensional framework structure built from O—H⃛O,N—H⃛O and C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds

In the title compound, C₁₃H₁₆N₂²⁺·2C₂H₄O₅P⁻, the cation lies across a twofold rotation axis in space group Fdd2. The anions are linked into molecular ladders by two O—H⃛O hydrogen bonds [H⃛O = 1.73 and 1.77 Å, O⃛O = 2.538 (2) and 2.598 (3) Å, and O—H⃛O = 160 and 170°], these ladders are linked into sheets by a single type of N—H⃛O hydrogen bond [H⃛O = 1.75 Å, N⃛O = 2.624 (3) Å and N—H⃛O = 171°] and the sheets are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by a single type of C—H⃛O hydrogen bond [H⃛O = 2.48 Å, C⃛O = 3.419 (4) Å and C—H⃛O = 167°].     

Synthese und eigenschaften neur kupfer- und gold-komplexe des typs C5H5MPR3, C5Me5MPR3 und R″C2MPR3 (M = Cu,Au) sowie die kristallstruktur von C5H5AuPPr3i

The complexes C₅H₅CuPR₃ (R = Me, Prⁱ), C₅H₅AuPR₃ (R = Me, Prⁱ), C₅Me₅CuPR₃ (R = Me, Prⁱ, Ph) and C₅Me₅AuPR₃ (R = Prⁱ, Ph) are prepared from [ClCuPR₃]_n or ClAuPR₃ and LiC₅H₅ (TlC₅H₅) or LiC₅Me₅, respectively. According to the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra, the cyclopentadienyl and pentamethylcyclopentadienylgold compounds are fluxional in solution. The X-ray crystal structure of C₅H₅AuPPr₃ⁱ has been determined at ?120°C. The gold atom is in a linear arrangement (PAuC(1) = 177.0(2)°) and primarily σ-bonded to the cyclopentadienyl ring which shows a weak “slip distortion” toward a η³-mode of coordination. The complexes C₅R′₅AuPR₃ (R′ = H, Me) and C₅Me₅CuPPr₃ⁱ react with 1-alkynes such as C₂H₂, HC₂Ph and HC₂CO₂Me to form alkinylgold and copper compounds R″C₂MPR₃. They have been characterized by IR, UV and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) spectroscopy.     

An ESR study of some group IVB free radical adducts of diethylketomalonate

The formation of the compound RSnX(acac)₂ (acac = 2,4-pentanedionato) by reaction of bis(2,4-pentanedionato)tin(II) on a halide RX with R = CH₃, C₂H₅, C₄H₉, C₆H₅, CH₂I, (C₆H₅)₃SnCH₂, (C₂H₅)₃SnCH₂ and X = I, Br has been studied by polarography. At 25°C, it is in fact an equilibrium whose constant has been measured. The intermediate formation of the ion-pair [RSn(acac)₂⁺X^?] has allowed us to explain the experimental results.
