Crystal and molecular structure of dimethyl 4-phenyl-S-methylisothiosemicarbazide diacetate and its complex with copper(II) bromide

The structure of dimethyl 4-phenyl-S-methylisothiosemicarbazide diacetate NH(C₆H₅)C(SCH₃)NN × (CH₂COOCH₃)₂ (Z) hydroiodide (I) (crystals I are triclinic, space group $P\bar 1$ , a=11.671(3), b=10.889(2), c=8.237(2) Å,α=78.59(2),β=77.63(2),γ=106.47(2)°, Z=2, final R=0.088) and a complex of Z with copper(II) bromide, CuBr₂Z (II) (crystals II are orthorhombic, space group Pbca, a=14.487(4), b=18.827(8), c=14.565(5) Å, Z=8, R=0.062) was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. It is established that methylation of the sulfur atom changes the type of ligand attachment to the metal, namely, the ligand is transformed from the tripod S,N,O,O, into the N,N,O,O type (the sulfur atom is not involved in coordination). When coordinated, the ligand does not change conformation, and the thiosemicarbazide fragment retains the E-configuration. During complexation, Z topologically behaves as a classical complexon of the monoamine series.

Here, the carboxylato-bridged two dinuclear copper(II) complexes are linked through melamine giving a 1D alternating chain. The structure of 1 consists of a two-dimensional supramolecular layer constructed by intermolecular N-H...N hydrogen bonds of the melamine ligands from adjacent one-dimensional [Cu₂(C₄H₅O₂)₄(C₃H₆N₆)] chains.

Complex compounds of 1,5-disubstituted 2,4-dithiobiurets with copper(II) chloride

1,5-diphenyl, 1,5-di-p-tolyl, 1-phenyl 5-0-tolyl, 1-phenyl 5-p-tolyl and 1-methyl 5-p-tolyl 2,4-dithiobiurets react with anhydrous copper(II) chloride in alcohol to form golden yellow complexes of general formula [CuL₂]· Cl₂, where L is a molecule of the ligand. The structures of these complexes have been studied by infrared spectroscopy, conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The unusual magnetic moment (1.11–1.34 B.M.) values of these complexes are indicative of the metal–metal bonding. The structure of these complexes are proposed to have square planer configurations.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction is used to investigate two synthesized β-diketonate complexes of copper(II) with aminopyridine: Cu(4-NH₂Py)(aa)₂ (I) and Cu(4-NH₂Py)(hfa)₂ (II). The crystals of I and II have a monoclinic system; the unit cell parameters of I are: P2₁/n space group, a = 8.2921(3) Å, b = 14.7243(5) Å, c = 13.4970(4) Å, β = 102.426(1)°, V = 1609.32(9) ų, Z = 4; for II: C2/c space group, a = 23.5704(5) Å, b = 11.4977(2) Å, c = 16.0285(3) Å, β = 109.265(1)°, V = 4100.6(1) ų, Z = 8. The structures of I and II are molecular; they are composed of isolated molecules. The coordination polyhedron of the copper atom is formed by the O atoms of two acetylacetonate ligands (Cu-O 1.940(2)–2.171(2) I and the O atoms of two hexafluoroacetylacetonate ligands (Cu-O 1.940(2)–2.215(3) Å) in II. The molecules of 4-NH₂Py are bonded to the copper atom via the nitrogen atom of the aromatic ring (Cu-N 2.008(2) Å in I and Cu-N 1.978(3) Å in II). Noncoordinated amino groups join the molecules of the complexes together by means of N-H…O hydrogen bonds.

Tetranuclear copper(II) complex with the heterocyclic azomethine ligand: Crystal structure and magnetic properties

A tetranuclear copper(II) complex based on azomethine, which is the condensation product of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-formylpyrazol-5-one with 1,3-diaminopropan-2-ol, is synthesized. The complex includes two different tetranuclear clusters: symmetrical and unsymmetrical. They have a pseudo-cubane structure and are in a ratio of 1 : 2. The quantum-chemical calculation shows that the “unsymmetrical” conformer does not correspond to the local minimum on the molecular potential energy surface. Its existence is thus determined by the crystalline packing effects. According to the results of measurements of the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility, the ground spin state is a singlet caused by the overall antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper ions. Accepting the molar magnetic susceptibility of the complex to be equal to the sum of susceptibilities of the “symmetrical” and “unsymmetrical” clusters and assuming that the spin-Hamiltonian for both clusters includes three exchange parameters, the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of the complex is satisfactorily described with the following parameters of the model: J _1A = ?178, J _2A = 80, J _3A = 18, J _1B = ?26, J _2B = ?74, J _3B = 46 cm^?1, g _A = g _B = 2.05.     

Reactions of 2-pyridylphenylacetonitrile with copper(II) chloride,copper(II) bromide,cobalt(II) chloride and cobalt(II) bromide

Reaction of 2-pyridylphenylacetonitrile with copper(II) chloride and copper(II) bromide in dry ethanol gives the hitherto unreported compound 1,2-di(cyano,phenyl,2′-pyridyl)ethane. The cobalt halides react with 2-pyridylphenylacetonitrile to form 1:1 complexes containing O-ethyl-2-phenyl-2-(2′-pyridyl)acetimidate as ligand. Removal of the ligand by the action of dry liquid ammonia on the complexes provides a better route to the pure imidate than the well known Pinner method.     

Crystal and molecular structure of the copper(II) Schiff-base complex containing the azo group

From 3-allyl salicylaldehyde and 4-aminoazobenzene (HL), the Schiff-base complex of copper(II) is synthesized and structurally characterized. The crystallographic unit of a CuL₂ (1) single crystal contains two independent molecules of the complex. Coordination polyhedra of copper atoms are slightly distorted squares; azomethine ligands are in the trans-position. The neighboring molecules of the complex are bonded by intermolecular π stacking interactions.     

Structure of the Cu(II) chloride complex with 4-amino-l,2,4-triazole Cu(C2H4N4)Cl2

The coordination compounds of copper(II) chloride and bromide with 1,2,4-triazole (L¹) and 4-amino1,2,4-triazole (L²), CuL¹Hal₂ and CuL²Hal₂, possess interesting magnetic properties [1, 2]. For example, at very low temperatures CuL¹Cl₂ and CuL¹Br₂ are ferromagnets [2](T _c ≈ 3.3 and 6.5 K, respectively). To explain the magnetic behavior of copper(II) halide complexes with the above nitrogen heterocycles it is generally assumed that the complexes are polynuclear chain compounds in which the copper atoms are bridged by two halogen ions and bridging bidentate heterocycle molecules (coordination of N1 and N2 atoms). This hypothesis is made on the basis of the X-ray diffraction analysis of CuL¹Cl₂ [3]. It is interesting to perform an X-ray diffraction study of CuL²Cl₂ and CuL2Br2; this is important for obtaining reliable magnetostructural correlations for this group of compounds. In this study, we investigated single crystals of the complexes; this demanded choosing special conditions of synthesis, which differ from the conditions suggested for the synthesis of polycrystals in [1]. In this communication we report on the results of synthesis and X-ray diffraction analysis of the single crystals of the coordination compound CuL²Cl₂.

Crystal and molecular structure oftrans-bis-(1,1,1-trifluoro-5-methoxy-5-methyl-2,4-hexanedionato) copper(II)

A combined X-ray diffraction study of the single crystals (Enraf-Nonius CAD-4 automatic diffractometer, MoK_α radiation, graphite monochromator) and polycrystals (DRON-UM1, CuK_α radiation, Ni filter) of a new volatile complex of Cu(II) obtained from fluorinated alkoxy-Β-diketone, CF₃-CO-CH₂-CO-C(CH₃)₂OCH₃, is reported. The compound has a molecular structure; the crystals consist of trans-bis(1,1,1-trifluoro-5-methoxy-5-methyl-2,4-hexanedionato)copper(II) complexes. The structure was refined anisotropically for 2314 independent reflections with I > 2Σ(I) to R = 0.069. Crystal data: a = 24.469(3), c = 10.581(2) å, V = 5486.4 å³, space group R3, Z = 9, d_calc = 1.17 g/cm³. The complexes are packed to form through channels ≈5 å in diameter along the c axis, with terminal fluorine atoms facing the channels. The crystal-chemical data of the compound are compared with those of the nonfluorinated analog, trans-bis(2-methoxy-2,6,6-trimethylheptane-3,5-dionato)copper(II). The introduction of CF₃ groups into alkoxy-Β-diketone considerably decreases the sublimation temperature of the complex. The geometrical characteristics of chelate nodes in the complexes are almost equal: the Cu-0 distances are 1.92 å and the O-Cu-0 bond angles 92.1? (average). In both cases, the square planar environment of the Cu atom is completed to bipyramidal by interactions with the oxygen atoms of the methoxy groups of the neighboring molecules, with Cu...O distances being 2.8 å.
