CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE NOVEL COMPOUND (1α, 3bT, 5α)-1,3-DIPHENYL-5-HYDRIDO-5-ISOPROPOXY-1λ6, 3λ6,2,4,6,5λ5-DITHIATRIAZAPHOSPHORINE-1,3-DIOXIDE. A COMPARISON WITH RELATED STRUCTURES

Abstract

The title compound (1α, 3β, 5α)-(NSOPh)₂NP(H)O-i-Pr crystallizes in the spacegroup P2₁/n with cell dimensions: a = 12. 150(2), b = 8.911(1), c = 17.614(3) Å, β = 107.52(1)^o; Z = 4. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least-squares techniques to an R value of 0.048 for 2420 independent reflections (collected at room temperature) with I > 2.5 σ(I). The unit cell contains dimeric units which are formed by unprecedented P[sbnd]H…O[dbnd]S bridges. The conformation of the inorganic ring skeleton can be described as a boat; phosphorus and sulfur atoms show a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The S[sbnd]N bond lengths differ slightly, ranging from 1.547(3) to 1.588(2) Å. The exocyclic bond lengths are P[sbnd]H = 1.34(2), P[sbnd]O = 1.553(2), S[sbnd]O = 1.439(2) (mean value), and S[sbnd]C = 1.767(4) (mean value) Å. From a comparison with analogous structures the degree of asymmetry (ΔI = {[P[sbnd]N]-[S[sbnd]N]}Å) in the SNP unit is related to the difference in electronegativity between the sulfur and phosphorus centres.     

THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURES OF 10,10′-BIS(PHENOXARSINE) OXIDE AND SELENIDE

Abstract

The reaction between 10,10′-bis(phenoxarsine) oxide (I) and HI gives 10-iodophenoxarsine. The latter, on treatment with H₂Se give 10,10′-bis(phenoxarsine) selenide (II). The crystal structures of I and II have been determined from single crystal X-ray data. The unit cell for I is monoclinic, P2₁/c (No. 14) with a = 15.976(3) Å, b = 10.582(2) Å, c = 12.581(2) Å, β = 111.70(1)° V = 2018.6 ų; d(calc.) = 1.65Mg/m³ at 23°C for four molecules per unit cell. From 3279 reflections for which I>0.5σ(I), F>σ(F), R = 0.041 with anisotropic thermal parameters for all non-hydrogen atoms and with fixed positions and thermal parameters for hydrogens. One of the phenoxarsina rings deviates from planarity by approximately 5° while the other deviates by more than 24°. The (As[sbnd]O) distances are 1.810(3) and 1.821(3) Å for the flat and bent ring and the (As[sbnd]O[sbnd]As) angle is 122.3(1)°. The bond distances to As and O from C are nearly the same for both rings, but the bond angles with As and the ring O as the apex are systematically larger for the flat ring. For II the unit cell is triclinic, P1 (No. 2) with a = 9.368(1) Å, b = 14.089 Å, c = 9.269(2) Å, α = 111.37(2), β = 113.11(2), γ = 74.76(1); V = 1037.5 ų, d(calc) = 1.81 Mg/m³ for two molecules per unit cell at 23°C. From 2945 reflections for which I > 0.5σ(I), F > σ(F), R = 0.055 with anisotropic thermal parameters for all non-hydrogen atoms and with fixed positions and thermal parameters for hydrogen. One of the phenoxarsina rings deviates by 3° from planarity and the other by 8°. The (As[sbnd]Se) bond distances are 2.416(1) and 2.406(1) Å. The (As[sbnd]Se[sbnd]As) bond angle is 96.66(4)° and the corresponding (As[sbnd]C) and (C[sbnd]C) distances in the two rings are nearly the same. In comparison with I, the angles with As or O as the central atoms are about the same in both rings of II.     

X-RAY STRUCTURES OF BIS[(2-AMINOPHENYL)DIPHENYLPHOSPHINE]BIS-(ETHANOL)SILVER(I) NITRATE AND TRIS[(2-AMINOPHENYL)DIPHENYLPHOSPHINE] SILVER(I) NITRATE MONOHYDRATE

Abstract

The crystal structures of two Ag(I) salts, [Ag(LH)₂(EtOH)₂](NO₃) (1) and [Ag(LH)₃](NO₃).H₂O (2) where LH is (2-aminophenyl)diphenylphosphine, have been determined at room temperature. In 1 the Ag atom is coordinated by two P atoms derived from the phosphine ligands (Ag-P(1) 2.433(3) and Ag-P(2) 2.439(3) Å and P(1)-Ag-P(2) 160.1(1)°) and two O atoms derived from two weakly coordinating ethanol molecules (Ag-O(1a) 2.49(1) and Ag-O(2a) 2.75(1) Å). In 2 the three phosphine ligands coordinate via the P atoms (Ag-P 2.455(2), 2.462(2) and 2.484(2) Å) which define a trigonal planar geometry about the Ag atom. In neither case was any evidence found for a bonding interaction between the amino-N atom and the Ag atom. Crystals of 1 are monoclinic, space group P2₁/n with unit cell dimensions: a=10.272(4), b=16.358(2), c=23.709(3) Å, β=101.01(2)° and Z=4 and crystals of 2 are triclinic, space group P 1 with a=11.857(2), b=21.285(2), c=11.190(4) Å, α=91.77(1), β=104.50(2), γ=97.93(1)° and Z=2. The structures were each refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure to final R=0.058 using 2433 reflections for 1 and to R=0.069 using 4428 reflections for 2.

A three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular compound, [(phen)LSnS]₂·(H₂O)₂ (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, L = mercaptoacetic acid), has been synthesized and the crystal structure was determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study. 1 is triclinic, space group P-1 with a = 6.695(1) Å, b = 10.929(2) Å, c = 12.117(2) Å, α = 114.55(3)°, β = 93.53(2)°, γ = 104.06(3)°, and Z = 1. The dinuclear cluster of [(phen)LSnS]₂ and H₂O are linked into a 3D supramolecular framework by a combination of O[sbnd]H…O, C[sbnd]H…O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions. Its luminescence property is discussed.

Abstract

Crystals of [Zn(trien)I]I (trien=triethylenetetramine C₆N₄H₁₈) are orthorhombic. The space group is P2₁2₁2₁, with four molecules in the unit cell of dimensions a=11.97(1), b=13.72(1), c=8.12(1)Å. A total of 2029 independent reflections was measured with a Siemens A.E.D. automatic diffractometer using MoK_α radiation. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares to a conventional R factor of 0.041 for 1435 observed reflections. The coordination around the central zinc atom is square pyramidal with the zinc atom 0.71 Å above the plane of the four nitrogen atoms of the ligand molecule. The values of coordination bond lengths, Zn-N(prim) 2.13 Å, Zn-N(sec) 2.19 Å, Zn-I 2.59 Å fall all in the range expected for covalent bonds. The molecular structure is discussed in comparison with that of [Cu(trien)SCN]CNS.

Interactions of the complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) have been investigated by UV absorption, fluorescence, and cyclic voltammetry; thus, modes of CT-DNA binding for the complexes have been proposed. Furthermore, DNA cleavage activities by the complexes were performed in the absence of any external agents. The influence of complex concentration or reaction time on the DNA cleavage was studied.

Abstract

Two new uranyl coordination compounds, [C₉H₁₇N₂]₃[(UO₂)₂(CrO₄)₂Cl₂(H₂O)₂]Cl·5H₂O (1) and (C₉H₁₇N₂)[(UO₂)(C₂O₄)Cl] (2), have been synthesized by adding potassium dichromate (K₂Cr₂O₇) or oxalic acid dihydrate (H₂C₂O₄·2H₂O) solution into an aqueous solution of uranyl nitrate and 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride [Bmmim]Cl. [Bmmim]Cl provides the charge balance and Cl ions that coordinate with uranyl ions. The fundamental building units of 1 and 2 are UO₆Cl pentagonal bipyramidal structures. Compound 1 exhibits a graphene-like structure with a system molar ratio of 1:1 for U:Cr and crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca, with a = 25.644(3) Å, b = 12.996(14) Å and c = 29.198(4) Å. 16-Membered rings are formed by CrO₄^2? and UO₂²⁺ in the crystal structure of 1. Compound 2 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/n, with a = 10.759(3) Å, b = 11.395(3) Å, c = 14.149(4) Å, β = 102.962(9)° and shows one-dimensional (1D) serrated chains. Within the crystal structures of 1 and 2, C–H_[Bmmim]Cl?O hydrogen bonds are identified. O–H_water?Cl hydrogen bonds are also detected in the crystal structure for 1.     

CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF BIS(TRIPHENYLBENZYLPHOSPHONIUM) TETRABROMOCADMATE

Abstract

The molecular and crystal structure of bis(triphenylbenzylphosphonium)tetrabromocadmate has been determined by x-ray diffractometer data. Crystals are triclinic, space-group Pl with two formula units in a unit-cell of dimensions a = 12.506(6), b = 10.471(5), c = 18.396(13) Å, α = 93.07(4)°, β = 105.75(5)°, γ = 92.58(4)°. The structure was solved by direct and Fourier methods and refined by least-squares techniques to R = 0.061 for 3723 independent observed reflections. The structure consists of tetrabromocadmate (II) anions and triphenylbenzylphosphonium cations, both with a quasi-perfect tetrahedral symmetry around the cadmium and phosphorus atoms. The most significant average bond distances are: Cd-Br, 2.588(2) Å, P[sbnd]C (Phen), 1.794(5) Å and P[sbnd]CH₂, 1.806(6) Å. The P[sbnd]C (Phen) bonds are in slightly distorted staggered conformation (gauche-, gauche +, and trans) in respect of the C (Phen)-CH₂ bonds of the benzyl residues. The interatomic distances between the ions correspond to the usual Van der Waals distances.

Abstract

Two copper(I) complexes, [Cu(H₂net)₂Cl] · CH₂Cl₂ (1) and [Cu(H₂nmt)₂Cl]₂ · (CHCl₃)₂ (2), were synthesized by the reaction of CuCl₂ · 2H₂O with N-(p-nitrophenyl)-N′-(ethoxycarbonyl)-thiourea (H₂net) and N-(p-nitrophenyl)-N′-(methoxycarbonyl)-thiourea(H₂nmt), respectively. Both complexes crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2/c. For complex 1, a = 29.52(2), b=13.920(6), c = 14.873(3)Å; β= 101.75(2)°, V = 5984(4) ų, Z = 8 and R = 0.053; for complex 2, a = 30.68(1), b = 13.369(4), c = 14.226(7) Å, β = 99.52(4)°. V = 5754(4) ų, Z = 4 and R = 0.063. In complex 1, two H₂net molecules are bonded to Cu(I) atom through two S atoms forming a mononuclear complex with trigonal geometry for the Cu(I) ion [Cl(1)-Cu-S(1)=118.54(7), Cl(1)-Cu-S(2)=119.70(7), S(1)-Cu-S(2)=112.17(8)°, Cu-S(1) = 2.251(2), Cu-S(2) = 2.255(2), Cu-Cl(1) = 2.263(2) Å]. Complex 2 is a dimer formed by long Cu-S interactions [Cu-S* = 2.607(3) Å] from adjacent twc H₂nmt molecules; the Cu(I) ion has distorted tetrahedral coordination [Cl(1)-Cu-S(1) = 119.8(1), Cl(1)-Cu-S(2)=120.0(1), S(1)-Cu-S(2)=108.85(9)°] with unequal Cu-S [2.268(2), 2.247(2)Å] and Cu-Cl(1) [2.255(2)Å] bonds.     

Syntheses,structural determination,and binding studies of nine-coordinate multinuclear (mnH)2[EuIII(egta)]2·6H2O and binuclear (mnH)4[EuIII2(dtpa)2]·6H2O

Two lanthanide complexes, (mnH)₂[Eu^III(egta)]₂·6H₂O (1) (H₄egta = ethyleneglycol-bis-(2aminoethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid) and (mnH)₄[Eu^III₂(dtpa)₂]·6H₂O (2) (H₅dtpa = diethylenetriamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetic acid), have been synthesized and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray diffraction reveals that 1 is multinuclear nine-coordinate and crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system with space group C2/c. The obtained cell dimensions are a = 38.513(3)?Å, b = 13.5877(8)?Å, c = 8.7051(5)?Å, β = 99.6780(10)°, and 4490.6(5)?ų. Each methylamine (mnH⁺) cation in 1, through hydrogen bonds, connects three adjacent [Eu^III(egta)]^? anions. The [Eu^III(egta)]^? anions connect one another forming a 1-D multinuclear zigzag chain structure along the c-axis. Complex 2 is nine-coordinate binuclear structure with tricapped trigonal prismatic conformation and crystallizing in the monoclinic crystal system, but with space group P2₁/n. The obtained cell dimensions are a = 9.9132(8)?Å, b = 24.1027(18)?Å, c = 10.7120(10)?Å, β = 109.1220(10)°, and 2418.2(3)?ų. For 2, there are two kinds of methylamine cations (mnH⁺) connecting [Eu^III₂(dtpa)₂]^4? complex anions and lattice waters through hydrogen bonds, leading to formation of a 2-D ladder-like layer structure.     

REACTIONS OF A PHOSPHORANIMINE ANION WITH SOME ORGANIC ELECTROPHILES

Abstract

The reactions of a variety of electrophiles with the N-silyl-P-trifluoroethoxyphosphoranimine anion Me₃Sin°P(Me)(OCH₂CF₃)CH^? ₂ (1a), prepared by the deprotonation of the dimethyl precursor Me₃SiN[dbnd]P(OCH₂CF₃)Me₂ (1) with n-BuLi in Et₂O at-78°C, were studied. Thus, treatment of 1a with alkyl halides, ethyl chloroformate, or bromine afforded the new N-silylphosphoranimine derivatives Me₃SiN[dbnd]P(Me)(OCH₂CF₃)CH₂R [2: R = Me, 3: R = CH₂Ph, 4: R = CH[sbnd]CH₂, 5: R = C(O)OEt, and 6: R = Br]. In another series, when 1a was allowed to react with various carbonyl compounds, 1,2-addition of the anion to the carbonyl group was observed. Quenching with Me₃SiCl gave the O-silylated products Me₃SiN[dbnd]P(Me)(OCH₂CF₃)CH₂°C(OSiMe₃)R¹R² [7: R ¹ = R ² = Me; 8: R ¹ = Me, R ² = Ph; 9: R¹ = Me, R ² = CH[sbnd]CH₂; and 10: R ¹ = H, R ² = Ph]. Compounds 2–10 were obtained as distillable, thermally stable liquids and were characterized by NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P) and elemental analysis.

A new phenylimidorhenium(V) compound containing the 2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol Schiff-base ligand: experimental and theoretical aspects

Reaction of equimolar trans-[Re(NPh)(PPh₃)₂Cl₃] with H₂L, a 1?:?1 Schiff-base condensate of salicylaldehyde and ethanolamine, in chloroform gives trans-[Re(NPh)(HL)(PPh₃)Cl₂] (1a) in good yield. 1a has been characterized by C, H, and N microanalyses, FTIR and UV–vis spectra. The X-ray crystal structure of 1a reveals that it is an octahedral trans-Cl,Cl phenylimidorhenium(V) complex. The rhenium center has an ‘N₂OCl₂P’ coordination sphere. 1a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 11.2391(5), b = 16.4848(7), c = 16.3761(8) Å, V = 3034.0(2) ų and Z = 4. The electrochemical aspects of 1a have been studied. Electrochemical studies of 1a in dichloromethane show a quasi-reversible Re(V) to Re(VI) oxidation at 1.128 V versus Ag/AgCl. This redox potential reasonably matches the calculated redox potential, 1.186 V versus Ag/AgCl. Geometry optimization of the trans-Cl,Cl 1a vis-à-vis its cis analog, cis-Cl,Cl 1b, have been performed at the level of density functional theory (DFT). It is revealed that 1a is more stable than 1b by 21.6 kcal per mole of energy in the gas phase.

STEREOCHEMISTRY OF (R)-2-METHYLAZIRIDINE COMPLEXES OF COBALT(III) AND DIMERIZATION OF THE LIGAND

Abstract

A cobalt(III) complex containing (R)-2-methylaziridine (R-meaz), [Co(R-meaz)(NH₃)₅]³⁺, was prepared and the two diastereomers arising from the presence of the chiral nitrogen atom (N(R) and N(S)) were separated by column chromatography. Molecular mechanics calculations estimated the N(R)-isomer to be more stable. This result was supported by the x-ray structure determination of the more abundant (ca. 94%) isomer, N(R)-[Co(R-meaz)(NH₃)₅]Br₃H₂O. Crystal data: monoclinic, P2₁, a = 7.357(1), b = 9.780(1), c = 10.426(1) Å, μ = 93.58(1)°, V= 748.7(3) ų, Z= 2. Kinetic studies of isomerization (epimerization) between the two isomers revealed that inversion at the nitrogen center was very slow (5 × 10^?2 M^?1 S^?1at 25 °C). The small rate constant seems to be related to the strained three-membered structure of the meaz ligand. The reaction of Na₃[Co(N0₂)6] and R-meaz yielded a complex containing two dimerized R-meaz chelates, trans-[Co(NO₂)2(di-R-meaz)₂] (di-R-meaz =RR)-α,2-dimethyl-l-aziridineethanamine). The crystal strucrure of trans-[Co(NO₂)₂ (di-R-meaz)₂]C1O₄H₂O was established by x-ray crystallography. Crystal data: orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁, a = 11.784(6), b = 21.023(9), c = 8.608(7) Å, V = 2133(2) ų, Z = 4.     

INTRODUCTION DE SYSTÈMES CAGE DANS LES MOLÉCULES D'INTÉRĚT BIOLOGIQUE. 2. ALKYLATION DES ESTERS SULFAMIQUES AU MOYEN D'UN DÉRIVÉ DE L'ADAMANTANE

Abstract

Sulfamic esters of the general type R[sbnd]O[sbnd]SO₂[sbnd]NH₂ were alkylated under solid-liquid, liquid-liquid phase transfer catalysis conditions and by noncatalytic procedure, in homogeneous medium, in the presence of an equimolar amount of triethylamine, by means of a 1-adamantyl bromomethyl ketone. According to the procedure and the nature of R, these reactions yield the N-monoalkyl, N-dialkyl derivatives or a cleavage of the O[sbnd]SO₂ bond with formation of the O-alkylation products.

SYNTHESES,CHARACTERIZATION AND CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF TETRAMETHYLDIBENZOTETRAAZA[14]-ANNULENE ZINC(II) COMPLEXES CONTAINING AN AXIAL BASE

Abstract

The complexes of Zn(tmtaa) and Zn(tmtaa)L [H₂tmtaa = tetramethyldibenzotetraaza[14]-annulene; L = triethylamine, pyridine (Py) and p-dimethylaminopyridine (p-N(CH₃)₂Py)] were synthesized and characterized by IR, LTV, mass and NMR spectra as well as DSC measurements. The effects of different axial ligands (L) on the spectral properties of the complexes have been studied. The crystal structure of Zn(tmtaa)N(C₂H₅)3 was determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to a monoclinic system and the space group is P2₁/n. The cell parameters are a = 11.134(2)A, b = 17.453(4)Å, c= 13.784(3)Å, ? = 106.19(3)°, Z = 4, R₁, =0.0336 and wR₂= 0.0805 for 4539 independent reflections with I <2σ(I). The zinc(II) is coordinated through four nitrogen atoms of tmtaa and a nitrogen of triethylamine to form a five-coordinate square-pyramidal structure. The average bond length of Zn for the four nitrogens of tmtaa is 2.050(2)Å and for a nitrogen of triethylamine is 2.188(2)Å. The displacement of the zinc to the plane of four nitrogens of tmtaa is 0.563(2)Å.     

New hydrogen-bonded dimeric and polymeric gold(I) complexes of the heterodifunctional ligand Ph2PNHP(O)Ph2

The preparation of several new gold(I) complexes by chloride metathesis of [AuCl(HL)] [HL=Ph₂PNHP(O)Ph₂] with either HL or K[Ph₂P(E)NP(E)Ph₂] (E=S or Se) is described. All compounds were characterised by a combination of ³¹P{¹H}, ¹H and IR spectroscopy, microanalysis and X-ray crystallography. X-ray structural studies reveal that [Au(HL)₂]Cl [monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a=9.0726(3) Å, b=21.0847(6) Å, c=12.0131(3) Å, β=105.1090(10)°, V=2219 ų, Z=2, final R=3.97] forms a one dimensional polymeric structure in which alternating [Au(HL)₂]⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are linked through intermolecular N–H⋯Cl hydrogen-bonding. In contrast the three-co-ordinate compound [Au{Ph₂P(Se)NP(Se)Ph₂-Se,Se′}(HL)] [monoclinic, space group P2₁/a, a=21.6752(5) Å, b=9.1200(10) Å, c=24.0742(7) Å, β=106.080(2)°, V=4573 ų, Z=4, final R=8.94] forms hydrogen-bonded dimer pairs analogous to that previously observed in non-complexed HL. The X-ray crystal structure of the gold(I) precursor [AuCl(HL)] has also been determined: monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a=10.217(8) Å, b=23.256(5) Å, c=20.086(5) Å, β=101.15(4)°, V=4683 ų, Z=8, final R=5.2. The X-ray crystal structure reveals intermolecular N–H⋯OP hydrogen-bonding between adjacent [AuCl(HL)] molecules forming infinite chains.
