Structure of thiocarbamide-containing cobalt(III) dioximates with [BeF4]2− and [BF4]− anions

The crystal structure of the complexes [Co(DH)₂(Tu)₂]₂[BeF₄]·C₂H₅OH (I) and [Co(DfH)₂(Tu)₂][BF₄] 0.5H₂ (II) (where DH^? is the dimethylglyoxime monoanion, DfH^? is the α-benzyldioxime monoanion, and Tu is thiourea) has been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The coordination polyhedron of the Co³⁺ atom is an N₄S₂ octahedron formed by four nitrogen atoms of the dioxime molecule and two sulfur atoms of the fragments of thiourea (Tu); the latter have parallel and perpendicular orientations relative to the dioxime residue. The deviation of the cobalt atom from the four-angle plane (formed by the nitrogen atoms of the dimethylglyoxime residues) does not exceed 0.019 Å. The Co-N and Co-S distances vary from 1.877(3) Å to 1.901(3) Å and from 2.280(1) Å to 2.307(1) Å, respectively. The statistically disordered cations [BeF₄]^2? and [BF₄]^? play an important role in crystal formation — they form a complex system of hydrogen bonds.     

Synthesis and structure of new thiourea-containing Cobalt(III) dioximates with the [TiF6]2− anion

The new Co(III) dioximates [Co(DH₂)(D)(Thio)₂]₂[TiF₆] ·2DMF (I), [Co(NioxH)₂(Thio)₂]₂[TiF₆] · 2.25H₂O (II), and [Co(DpgH)₂(Thio)₂]₂[TiF₆] · 4DMF · 1.5H₂O (III) have been synthesized and studied (DH₂ and D are, respectively, the dimethylglyoxime molecule and doubly charged anion; NioxH and DpgH are singly charged anions of 1,2-cyclohexanedione dioxime and diphenylglyoxime, respectively; Thio is thiourea; DMF is dimethylformamide). The composition and structure of the complexes have been studies by IR, UV, and NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structures have been determined by X-ray crystallography. The hydrogen bonds in the structures are formed by fluorine atoms of the [TiF₆]^2? anion with Co(III) complex cations and solvent molecules of crystallization. The amino groups of coordinated thiourea molecules are also involved in the hydrogen bond system, which is responsible for their different arrangement with respect to the equatorial planes of the Co(III) complex cations.     

Synthesis and structure of oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines of an expanded π-electron-deficient cavity and their interactions with anions

Novel macrocyclic anion receptors based on the principle of anion-π interactions were reported. By means of both post-macrocyclization modification protocol and the stepwise fragment coupling approach, functionalized oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines bearing two other electron-deficient (hetero)aromatic rings on the lower rim were efficiently synthesized. The resulting oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine macrocyclesadopt 1,3-alternate conformation, yielding therefore an expanded electron-deficient cavity or space consisting of two triazine rings and two appending aromatic rings. Spectroscopic titration study showed the selective interaction of the pentafluorophenyl-substituted oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine with azide and fluoride in solution with the binding constants (K(1:1)) ranging from 1.33 × 10(3) to 3.52 × 10(3) M(-1).

Two new decavanadate metal compounds, [Co(pyim)₃]₂[V₁₀O₂₈]·7H₂O (1) and [Ni(pyim)₃]₂[H₂V₁₀O₂₈]·4H₂O (2) (pyim?=?2-(2-pyridyl)-imidazole), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, infrared spectra, powder X-ray diffraction analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. Crystallographic analysis reveals that 1 is constructed from [V₁₀O₂₈]^6?, metal cation [Co(pyim)₃]³⁺, and water. [V₁₀O₂₈]^6? clusters are connected by waters through O–H?O hydrogen bonds to form a sheet structure which is further connected by N–H?O hydrogen bonds to form a 3-D supermolecular framework. In 2, although [Ni(pyim)₃]²⁺ is similar to [Co(pyim)₃]³⁺ in 1, the M?O cluster anion is protonated [H₂V₁₀O₂₈]^4?.     

The unusual stability of [NpO2Cl4]2−: Synthesis and characterisation of [NpO2(DPPMO2)2Cl]2[NpO2Cl4] and [Ph3PNH2]2[NpO2Cl4]

The [NpO₂(DPPMO₂)₂Cl][NpO₂Cl₄] complex (where DPPMO₂ = bis(diphenylphosphino)methanedioxide) contains the linear neptunyl group, {NpO₂}²⁺, with two bidentate P=O donor ligands.

A series of new organic–inorganic compounds templated by the [SiW12O40]4− polyanion

Two couples of new compounds templated by the polyanion [SiW₁₂O₄₀]^4?,[Hbix][Cu^I(bix)]₃[SiW₁₂O₄₀]·4H₂O (1) and [Cu^II(H₂O)(Hbix)₂(bix)]₂[Cu^II(H₂O)₂(Hbix)₂(bix)][SiW₁₂O₄₀]₃·4H₂O (2) (bix = 1,4-Bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene), [Cu^I(bbi)]₄[SiW₁₂O₄₀]·2H₂O (3) and [Cu^II(bbi₂)]₂[SiW₁₂O₄₀] (4) (bbi = 1,1′-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(imidazole)) were hydrothermally synthesized, and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analyses and single X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 2 were synthesized from the same reactants but exhibited distinct structures which could be ascribed to the different ratios of the reactant bix to Cu^II. In compound 1, the higher ratio of bix results in the transformation of the Cu^II to Cu^I, the [SiW₁₂O₄₀]^4? templates direct the Cu^I–bix coordination polymers to form a 3D supramolecular framework with grid-like channels along two directions. The [SiW₁₂O₄₀]^4? templates in compound 2 locate in the voids of the 3D supramolecular network constructed by Cu^II–bix coordination polymers, which exhibits the interdigitation fashion in both the formation of the 2D layer and the 3D framework. Compounds 3 and 4 were synthesized similar to 1 and 2, except for the change of bix to bbi. In compound 3, the Cu^I–bbi polymers form a supramolecular metal–organic host framework with rhombic channels in which the SiW₁₂ templates reside. Compound 4 shows a framework with hexagonal channels constructed by Cu^II–bbi coordination polymers which accommodated the SiW₁₂ templates.

The reaction of pentaphenylantimony with mercury iodide affords the ionic complex [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Hg₂I₆]^2?·Ph₂Hg (I). The [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Hg₂I₆]^2? (II) and [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Cd₂I₆]^2? (III) complexes are synthesized from tetraphenylantimony iodide and mercury and cadmium iodides. The [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Hg₄I₁₀]^2? complex (IV) is prepared from tetraphenylantimony 2,4-dimethylbenzenesulfonate and mercury iodide. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the Sb atom in the [Ph₄Sb]⁺ cations of complex I has virtually ideal tetrahedral coordination (the CSbC angles are 108.09°–109.64°). In the central square fragment Hg₂I₂ of the [Hg₂I₆]^2? anion, the Hg-I_br bond lengths are 2.825 and 3.075 Å, and the terminal iodine atoms are more strongly bonded to the mercury atoms (Hg-I_term 2.691 and 2.700 Å). The [Cd₂I₆]^2? anion in complex III has a similar structure (the Cd-I_bridg and Cd-I_term distances are 2.865, 2.872 and 2.723, 2.748 Å, respectively). The anions in complex IV are joined by I…Hg (3.651 Å) and I…I (4.058 Å) interactions into an infinite dimeric network.     

Synthesis and properties of BaCe1−xYxO3−δ–BaWO4 composite protonic conductors

Barium cerate doped by trivalent rare earth metal ions is a potentially huge component of materials for electrochemical industry due to its high protonic conductivity. However, the poor chemical stability especially in the presence of CO₂, SO₂ or H₂O, resulting in decreasing the mechanical durability of obtained materials, limits their possible applications. The new approach towards stable ceramic protonic conductors with high electrical conductivity is presented. Thermal stability of yttrium doped (10 mol%) of BaCeO₃ was enhanced by forming the composite material BaCe_0.9Y_0.1O₃–BaWO₄ (10 mol% of BaWO₄). The synthesis was performed by solid-state reaction method. The detailed study of thermal decomposition of starting powders mixture was performed using thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) techniques combined with Evolved Gas Analysis (EGA—mass spectrometry). Structure, phase composition and microstructure together with thermal stability of sintered materials were determined. The exposition tests were performed to characterise the stability of composites in carbon dioxide and water vapour-rich atmospheres. The samples were exposed to atmosphere containing CO₂/H₂O (7 % of CO₂ in air, 100 % RH) at temperature of 25 °C for 300 h. Thermal analysis supplied with mass spectrometry was applied to analyse the materials after the test. The results of this experiment showed better chemical resistance of composite material—BaCe_0.9Y_0.1O₃ with 10 mol% of BaWO₄ compared to single phase material.

Also their IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and elemental analysis have been investigated, respectively. Crystal data for 1: triclinic, P-1, a = 8.8049(4) Å, b = 9.1585(5) Å, c = 10.1912(5) Å, α = 74.925(4)°, β = 80.987(4)°, γ = 67.495(5)°, Z = 1. Crystal data for 2: triclinic, P-1, a = 9.2010(4) Å, b = 9.8663(4) Å, c = 11.4191(4) Å, α = 107.014(4)°, β = 92.514(3)°, γ = 107.265(4)°, Z = 1. The structures consist of isolated 8-membered boron ring made of the [B₇O₁₀(OH)₃]^2?cluster subunits. UV–Vis spectral investigation indicates that they are wide-band-gap semiconductors. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicates that they are potential blue light materials.     

Kinetic study of reaction of [ReN(H2O)(CN)4]2− with quinoline-2-carboxylate and pyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate anions

The kinetics of the reaction between [ReN(H₂O)-(CN)₄]²⁻ with different κ² N,O-donor ligands (quin⁻ and 2,3-dipic⁻, respectively) have been studied in the pH 4–12 range in aqueous solution. Two consecutive reaction steps with the formation of the [ReN(η¹-quin)(CN)₄]³⁻ and [ReN(μ²-quin) (CN)₃]²⁻ complexes, respectively, were spectrophotometrically observed and kinetically investigated. The same reaction mechanism is proposed for these two ligands. The first fast reaction (for quin⁻) is attributed to the aqua substitution of [ReN(H₂O)(CN)₄]²⁻ with forward and reverse rate constants of 1.96(5) × 10⁻¹ M⁻¹ s⁻¹ and 5.6(3) × 10⁻² s⁻¹, while a rate of 2.64(3) M⁻¹ s⁻¹ was observed for the reaction between the conjugate base [ReN(OH)(CN)₄]³⁻ and quin⁻ at 40.2 °C. Due to small absorbance changes, it was difficult to obtain any good quality data for the fast reactions for 2,3-dipic⁻. The second, slower reaction is attributed to cyano substitution with rate constants (k ₃ K ₁) of 4.17(4) × 10⁻³ for quin⁻ and 4.68(7) × 10⁻³ M⁻¹ s⁻¹ for 2,3-dipic⁻, at 80.02 °C, respectively. The acid dissociation constant for the aqua complex was spectrophotometrically determined as 11.58(3) and 11.54(2) and kinetically as 11.51(8) and 11.41(1), at 80.4 °C, respectively. Negative values of −83.5(2) and −144.1(2) J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ as well as the of 71.4(3) and 47.3(3) kJ mol⁻¹, for the slow quin⁻ and 2,3-dipic⁻ reactions, respectively, point to an ordered transition state where bond formation is responsible for the major driving force of the reaction. The and for the fast forward reaction of quin⁻ is indicative of expected associative activation in the transition state.

The structural units of I are doubly charged [HTA]²⁺ cations, [PdCl₄]^2? and Cl^? anions, and crystallization water molecules combined by hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions. The planar thiazolium and pyrimidine rings are in the F conformation, ??_t = 1.0°, ??_p = ?86.6°, and the dihedral angle between the planes is 85.5°.
