Structural diversity in pseudohalide complexes of cadmium(II) with N-methylthiourea (Metu): Polymeric [Cd(Metu)2(NCS)2]n versus monomeric [Cd(Metu)2(CN)2]

Cadmium(II) complexes, catena-poly[bis(thiocyanato-κN)bis(N-methylthiourea)cadmium(II)], [Cd(Metu)₂(NCS)₂]_n (1) and dicyanidobis(N-methylthiourea)cadmium(II), [Cd(Metu)₂(CN)₂] (2) were prepared and their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. In 1, the cadmium(II) ion is bound to four sulfur atoms of bridging Metu ligands and two nitrogen atoms of thiocyanate adopting a distorted octahedral environment. In 2, the geometry around cadmium is distorted tetrahedral attained by two cyanide ions and two methylthiourea molecules bound through the sulfur atoms. The crystal structures of both complexes show intra and intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions. The complexes were also characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy and the spectroscopic data were discussed in terms of the nature of bonding.     

Synthesis,crystal structures,thermal properties,and DNA-binding studies of transition metal complexes with imidazole ligands

A new series of complexes of transition metal (Cu, Zn, Ni) perchlorate with imidazole have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (IR), UV-Vis spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Based on elemental and spectral data, the complexes are M(C₃H₄N₂) _x (ClO₄)₂ (M?=?Cu, Zn, x?=?4; M?=?Ni, x?=?6; C₃H₄N₂?=?imidazole). The crystal structures of Cu(C₃H₄N₂)₄(ClO₄)₂ (1) and Zn(C₃H₄N₂)₄(ClO₄)₂ (2) show metals surrounded by four nitrogens of imidazole, while the nickel complex Ni(C₃H₄N₂)₆(ClO₄)₂ (3) has six nitrogens of imidazole. Intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen bonds exist between hydrogen of imidazole and oxygen of perchlorate. The thermal stabilities of 1, 2, and 3 at different heating rates (β?=?5°C?min^?1, 10°C?min^?1, and 15°C?min^?1) show that all the complexes exhibit two thermal decomposition stages; the sequence of thermal stability is 2?>?1?>?3. 1, 2, 3, and imidazole display DNA binding ability, ascertained by UV-Vis titration.

Coordination diversity in tin compounds with bis(benzoxazole)phenol as a polydentate ligand: Synthesis and crystal structure studies

Abstract

The reaction of 2,6-bis(benzoxazolyl)-4-tert-butylphenol (HL) with [ⁿBu_xSnCl_4?x] (x?=?0, 1) in 1:1 stoichiometry yielded the tin coordination complexes [(HL)SnⁿBu_xCl_4?x] [x?=?0 (1); x?=?1 (2)]. Deprotonation of HL was performed using reagents having groups with high basicity such as ⁿBuLi or [Sn{N(SiMe₃)₂}₂]. These basic reagents prompted the coordination of the ligand in its anionic form, yielding the complexes [(thf)₂Li(L)SnCl₄] (3) and [(L)Sn{N(SiMe₃)₂}] (4), respectively. The molecular structure of HL displayed an intramolecular hydrogen bond OH—N and a planar arrangement of the bis(benzoxazolyl)phenolic system. In the molecular structures of both complexes containing HL an intramolecular hydrogen bond of NH—O type was also present. The coordination of the ligand in either neutral or anionic form is described by a κO,κN chelate mode toward Sn. All complexes displayed bis(benzoxazolyl)phenolic moieties close to planar; the least planar system was observed in 4 that was also studied by DFT methods.

Syntheses,characterization, and crystal structures of two fluorinated gallium phosphates templated by organic amines

Two fluorinated gallium phosphates templated by organic amines, (C₄H₁₅N₃)[Ga₃F₂(PO₄)₃] (1) and [(C₂H₁₀N₂)(C₂H₉N₂)][Ga₃F₄(HPO₄)₄] (2), have been synthesized under hydrothermal and solvothermal conditions, respectively. The compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR spectroscopy, and powder X-ray diffraction. Their crystal structures were determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure of 1 has a 3-D framework with 10-membered ring channels along the b-axis. The crystal structure of 2 is an infinite 1-D chain structure, further forming a 3-D supramolecular structure with pseudo 10-membered ring channels along the a-axis through O–H?···?O hydrogen bonds. The protonated organic amine cations are located in the inorganic channel and interact with the polyanion framework both electrostatically and via N–H?···?O and N–H?···?F hydrogen bonds.     

Syntheses and structures of cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) complexes with N,N,N′,N′-tetraalkylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamides (O-daap) containing nitrate as the counter ion

Reactions of M(NO₃)₂?·?xH₂O [M?=?Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II)] with N,N,N′,N′-tetraalkylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamides(O-daap) in CH₃CN yield [Co(O-dmap)(NO₃)₂] (1), [Co(O-deap)(NO₃)₂] (2), [Co(O-dpap)(NO₃)₂] (3), [Ni(O-dmap)(H₂O)₃](NO₃)₂] (4), [Ni(O-deap)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)](NO₃)] (5), [Cu(O-deap)(NO₃)₂] (6), and [Cu(O-dpap)(NO₃)₂] (7). X-ray crystal structures of 1, 2, 4, 5, and 7 reveal that O-daap ligands coordinate tridentate to each metal, O–N–O, with nitrate playing a vital role in molecular and crystal structures of all the complexes. The coordination geometry in the two Co(II) complexes, 1 and 2, is approximately pentagonal bipyramidal with nitrate bonded in a slightly unsymmetrical bidentate chelating mode. [Ni(dmap)(H₂O)₃](NO₃)₂ (4) and [Ni(deap)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)](NO₃) (5) exhibit octahedral geometry, the former containing uncoordinated nitrate while the latter has one nitrate coordinated unidentate and the other nitrate outside the coordination sphere. The Cu(II) in [Cu(dpap)(NO₃)₂] (7) occupies a distorted square pyramidal geometry and is linked to two unidentate nitrates, although one nitrate is also involved in a weak interaction with the metal through its other oxygen. IR spectra and other physical studies are consistent with their crystal structural data. O-dmap?=?N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamides; O-deap?=?N,N,N′,N′-tetraethylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamides; and O-dpap?=?N,N,N′,N′-tetraisopropylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamides.     

Reactions of pyrrole-2,5-dicarbaldehyde with 2-aminodiphenylamine in the presence of nickel and cobalt trimethylacetates

The reactions of pyrrole-2,5-dicarbaldehyde (1) with 2-aminodiphenylamine (3) taken in a ratio of 1 : 2 in the presence of polinuclear nickel(ii) and cobalt(ii) trimethylacetate complexes were studied in MeCN. The reaction with Ni₉(HOOCCMe₃)₄(₄-OH)₃(₃-OH)₃(OOCCMe₃)₁₂ (2) afforded the mononuclear complex Ni(OOCCMe₃)₂[(PhHN)C₆H₄NHCHC₄H₂NCHNC₆H₄(NHPh)] (4) with a new ligand, which is the product of condensation of one molecule 1 with two molecules 3 and contains two NHPh groups. By contrast, the reaction with the polymeric complex [Co(OH) _n (OOCCMe₃)_2–n ] _x (5, n = 0.05—0.1) gave rise to the tetranuclear complex Co₄(₄-O)(-OOCCMe₃)₄L₂ (6), where L is, apparently, the product of further oxidation of Schiff"s base to the benzimidazole derivative. The structures of compounds 4 and 6 were established by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Evaluation of Novel N-Substituted β-Hydroxy Benzimidazole Sulfone Fluoroquinolones by Selective Oxidation Using Ticl4-H2O2

Abstract

The synthesis of N-substituted β-hydroxy benzimidazole sulfones containing 8-methoxy fluoroquinolone has been described and they were evaluated for antimicrobial activities. The compounds of N-substituted β-hydroxy benzimidazole sulfides (4a–e) and N-substituted β-hydroxy benzimidazole sulfones (5a–e) at C-7 of fluoroquinoline exhibited superior activity in vitro. 8-Methoxy fluoroquinolone carboxylic acid (1), reaction with piperizine in acetonitrile in presence of triethylamine under reflux gives 7-piperazinyl-8-methoxyfluoroquinolone (2). The latter is reacted with epichlorohydrine in presence of NaOH in acetone yielded N-substituted epoxide (3), which on treatment with 5-substituted-2-mercaptobenzimidazoles gives N-substituted β-hydroxy benzimidazole sulfides (4). Further, 4 on treatment with TiCl₄-H₂O₂ and in DCM yielded the corresponding N-substituted β-hydroxy benzimidazole sulfone (5).
