Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel 1D Magnesium (Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer Constructed by L-Cysteic Acid

A novel coordination polymer [Mg(L)(H2O)2]·H2O] (LH2=L-cysteic acid) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The crystal crystallizes in orthorhombic system, space group P212121, with a=5.962(3), b=11.224(6), c=13.664(7)(A), V=914.3(8) (A)3, Z=4, Mr=245.50, Dc=1.783 g/cm3,μ=0.445 mm-1,flack parameter=0.32(16), F(000)=512, the final R=0.0458 and wR=0.1172 for 1578 observed reflections with I ＞ 2σ(Ⅰ). The Mg(Ⅱ) atom shows an octahedral geometry defined by two carboxyl O atoms from two different L-cysteic acid ligands, one carboxyl O atom and one amino N atom from the adjacent ligand, and two aqua ligands. The Mg(Ⅱ) atoms are bridged by L-cysteic acid ligands, leading to a 1D infinite zigzag chain. In the structure there are extensive hydrogen bonds,through which the complex completes its 3D framework structure.     

Organomercury(II) and tellurium(II) compounds with the "pincer" ligand 2,6-[O(CH2CH2)2NCH2]2C6H3--stabilization of an unusual organotellurium(II) cationic species

The reaction of RH (1) with Hg(OAc)(2), in EtOH, gave the acetate RHgOAc (2) [R = 2,6-[O(CH(2)CH(2))(2)NCH(2)](2)C(6)H(3)]. The corresponding RHgCl (3) was obtained from 2 and LiCl. The reaction of 3 with TeCl(4) (1:1 molar ratio), in anhydrous 1,4-dioxane, resulted in the transfer of the organic ligand from mercury to tellurium and the isolation of the unexpected ionic compounds [RTe](2)[Hg(2)Cl(6)] (4) and [RH(3)][HgCl(4)] (5). The molecular structures of 1-4 and 5·H(2)O were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The acetate 2 and the chloride 3 are monomeric in solid state. In both mercury and tellurium organometallic compounds the organic group acts as an (N,C,N) "pincer" ligand. This coordination pattern provided stability for the rare [RTe](+) cation. Weak cation-anion interactions [Te···Cl 3.869(3) ?] are present between [RTe](+) and the dinuclear anion [Hg(2)Cl(6)](2-) in the crystal of 4. Theoretical calculations with DFT methods were performed for models of 3 and 4. The results show that in the cation of 4 the coordination of the nitrogen atoms play an important role for the stabilization of the structure found in the crystal whereas in 3 the coordination of the nitrogen atoms to the metal centre stabilizes to a less extent the structure found in solid state.

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Two Novel 1-D Metal Complexes with Dicyanamide： [Zn（pheen）（dca）2]n and [Cu（quin）2（dca）2]n

Even-numbered metal chain complexes: synthesis, characterization, and DFT analysis of [Ni4(mu4-Tsdpda)4(H2O)2] (Tsdpda2- = N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)dipyridyldiamido), [Ni4(mu4-Tsdpda)4]+, and related Ni4 string complexes

The synthesis and the X-ray structure of two complexes exhibiting a linear chain of four nickel atoms is reported, following Ni4(mu4-phdpda)4 (1), which had been characterized previously. [Ni4(mu4-Tsdpda)4(H2O)2], where H2Tsdpda is N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)dipyridyldiamine (2), is axially coordinated to two water molecules, at variance with 1. One-electron oxidation of 2 resulted in the loss of the axial ligands, yielding [Ni4(mu4-Tsdpda)4]+, [3]+, which was also structurally characterized. Finally, we report the structure of Ni4(mu4-DAniDANy)4 (4), a complex synthesized starting from the new ligand N,N'-bis-p-anisyl-2,7-diamino-1,8-naphthyridine. Magnetic measurements concluded that 4 is diamagnetic, like 1, whereas 2 is antiferromagnetic (-2J(14) = 80 cm(-)(1), using the Heisenberg Hamiltonian H = -2J(14) S(1).S(4)), as are other axially coordinated chains with an odd number of nickel atoms. DFT calculations are reported on these complexes in order to rationalize their electronic structure and their magnetic behavior. The magnetic properties of the [Ni4]8+ complexes are governed by the electronic state of the Ni(II) atoms, which may be either low-spin (S = 0), or high-spin (S = 1). DFT calculations show that the promotion to high spin of two Ni atoms in the chain, either external or internal, depends on the interplay between axial and equatorial coordination. The synergy between axial coordination and the presence of electron-withdrawing toluenesulfonyl substituents in 2 favors the promotion to the high-spin state of the terminal Ni atoms, thus yielding an antiferromagnetic ground state for the complex. This is at variance with complexes 1 and 4, for which the lowest quintet state results from the promotion to high spin of the internal nickel atoms, together with an important ligand participation, and is destabilized by 9 to 16 kcal mol(-1) with respect to the diamagnetic ground state.     

Synthesis and Extended 3D Hydrogen-bonded Structure of Complex Tris(violurato-N,O) Cobalt(III) Hexahydrate

1 INTRODUCTION The study of cobalt complexes plays an important role in pharmacology, coordination chemistry and bio- inorganic chemistry. The recent work on organoco- baloximes shows that it has outgrown its initial rele- vance of Vitamin B12 model and acquired an indepen- dent research field because of its rich chemistry[1~4]. At the same time, research on the complexes with oxime ligands has considerable interest owning to their special catalytic, electric, magnetic properties and bio…     

Mononuclear Ca(II)-bulky aryl-phosphate monoanion and dianion complexes with ortho-amide groups

Two new mononuclear Ca(II) complexes with aryl dihydrogen phosphate ligands having two strategically oriented bulky amide groups, 2,6-(Ph3CCONH)2C6H3OPO3H2 (1), including one with a phosphate monoanion, (NMe4)[CaII[O2P(OH)OC6H3-2,6-(NHCOCPh3)2]3(NCMe)3] (3), and one with a phosphate dianion, [CaII[O3POC6H3-2,6-(NHCOCPh3)2](H2O)3(MeOH)2] (4). Both are analogues for the NH...O hydrogen bonds in the active site of Ca(II)-containing phosphotransferase. Crystallographic studies of these Ca(II) complexes revealed that the amide NHs are directed to uncoordinated O atoms of the phosphates, and the IR and 1H NMR spectra indicate that strong NH...O hydrogen bonds are formed only in the phosphate dianion state. The ligand exchange reaction of 3 with a non-hydrogen-bonded phosphate ligand shows that the NH...O hydrogen bonds prevent the Ca-O bond from dissociation. A scatter plot analysis comparing the distance of a Ca-O bond with the Ca-O-P angle, the Fourier density analysis, and DFT calculations reveal that a partial degree of covalency in the Ca-O(phosphate) bonds is present.     

A dodecanuclear Zn cluster sandwiched by polyoxometalate ligands

A dodecazinc silicotungstate K(20)Na(2)[Zn(6)(OH)(7)(H(2)O)(Si(2)W(18)O(66))](2)·34H(2)O (1) has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, elemental analysis, infrared, UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, acid-base titration, and DFT calculations. The twelve zinc atoms between the two [Si(2)W(18)O(66)](16-) frameworks make this complex more stable hydrolytically than the heteropolytungstate ligands, [Si(2)W(18)O(66)](16-), themselves. The structurally unique central Zn(12) core is formed by the fusion of two [Zn(6)(OH)(7)(H(2)O)](5+) units through two edge-sharing Zn6 atoms. DFT B3LYP calculations give HOMO-LUMO and (HOMO - 1)-LUMO energy gaps of ～3.65 and 3.91 eV, respectively, as compared to the band gap in ZnO of 3.35 eV.     

Syntheses of 8-quinolinolatocobalt(III) complexes containing cyclen based auxiliary ligands as models for hypoxia-activated prodrugs

New ligands H(2)L2-H(2)L6 comprise the cyclen macrocycle which is N,N'-dialkylated at the 1,7-nitrogen atoms by three- and four-carbon alkyl chains bearing terminal sulfonic (C(3) H(2)L2), phosphonic (C(3) H(2)L3, C(4) H(2)L4) or carboxylic acid (C(3) H(2)L5, C(4) H(2)L6) groups, and HL7 is N-monoalkylated by a four-carbon sulfonic acid group. The ligands were prepared by alkylation of a bridged bisaminal intermediate. The syntheses of cobalt(III) complexes containing a tetradentate cyclen, N,N'-1,7-Me(2)cyclen, cyclam or L2-L7 ligand together with the bidentate 8-quinolinato (8QO(-)) ligand, of interest as it is a model for a more potent cytotoxic analogue, were investigated. Coordination of ligands (L) cyclen, N,N'-1,7-Me(2)cyclen or cyclam to cobalt(III) was achieved using Na(3)[Co(NO(6))] to form [Co(L)(NO(2))(2)](+). HOTf (trifluoromethansulfonic acid) was used to prepare the triflato complexes [Co(L)(OTf)(2)](+), followed by substitution of the labile triflato ligands to yield [Co(L)(8QO)](ClO(4))(2) isolated as the perchlorate salts. One further example containing cyclam and the 5-hydroxymethyl-8-quinolinato ligand was also prepared by this method. Complexes containing the pendant arm ligands L2-L6 were prepared from the cobalt precursor trans-[Co(py)(4)Cl(2)](+). Reaction of this complex with H(2)L2·4HCl and 8QOH produced [Co(L2)(8QO)] in one step and contains two deprotonated sulfonato pendant arms. The reaction of H(2)L3·4HBr with [Co(py)(4)Cl(2)](+) gave [Co(L3)]Cl in which L3 acts as a hexadenate ligand with the three-carbon phosphonato side chains coordinated to cobalt. H(2)L5·4HCl bearing three-carbon carboxylic acid pendant arms gave a similar result. The four-carbon ligands were coordinated to cobalt by reaction of [Co(py)(4)Cl(2)](+) with H(2)L4·4HBr or H(2)L6·4HCl to give [Co(HL4)Cl(2)] or [Co(H(2)L6)Cl(2)]Cl, which in turn with 8QOH gave the 8QO(-) complexes [Co(L4)(8QO)] bearing anionic phosphate pendant arms or [Co(H(2)L6)(8QO)]Cl(2) containing neutral carboxylic acid side chains. The reaction of Na(3)[Co(CO(3))(3)] with the mono-N-alkylated ligand HL7·4HCl and then HOTf gave [Co(L7)(CO(3))] and then in turn [Co(L7)(OTf)(2)]. The carbonato complex [Co(L7)(CO(3))] with [8QO](2)[SO(4)] produced [Co(L7)(CO(3))]. All complexes containing L7 bear an anionic sulfonato group on the side chain. The synthesis and characterisation of the six new ligands based on N-alkylated cylen ligand and the cobalt complexes outlined above are described, along with cyclic voltammograms of the 8QO(-) complexes and the molecular structures determined by X-ray crystallography of [Co(cyclen)(H(2)O)(2)](OTf)(3) (formed by aquation of the triflato complex), [Co(cyclen)(8QO)](ClO(4))(2), Co(L2)(8QO)·2H(2)O, Co(L4)(8QO)·6H(2)O and [Co(H(2)L6)Cl(2)]Cl·H(2)O. These demonstrate the coordination of the cyclen ligand in the folded anti-O,syn-N configuration with the N-alkylated nitrogens occupying apical positions.     

Supramolecular architectures assembled by the interaction of purine nucleobases with metal-oxalato frameworks. Non-covalent stabilization of the 7H-adenine tautomer in the solid-state

The synthesis, crystal structure and variable-temperature magnetic measurements of the compounds [Mn(mu-ox)(H2O)(7H-pur-kappaN9)]n (1), {[Mn(mu-ox)(H2O)2].(7H-ade).(H2O)}n (2) and {[Cu(mu-ox)(H2O)(7H-ade-kappaN9)][Cu(mu-ox)(mu-H2O)(7H-ade-kappaN9)]. approximately 10/3H2O}n (3), (where ox: oxalato dianion, pur: purine, and ade: adenine) are reported. Compounds 1and 2 contain one-dimensional chains in which manganese(II) atoms are bridged by bis-bidentate oxalato ligands. The distorted octahedral geometry around each metal centre is completed in compound 1 by one water molecule and the imidazole N9 donor site of the purine ligand, which is a rare example of direct binding between the Mn(II) ion and the N donor site of an isolated nucleobase. Unlike 1, the adenine moiety in compound 2 is not bonded to manganese atoms and the metal coordination polyhedron is filled by two water molecules in a cis-arrangement. Its crystal building is constructed from pi-stacked layers of Watson-Crick hydrogen-bonded adenine...(H2O2)...adenine aggregates and zig-zag Mn(II)-oxalato chains held together by means of a strong network of hydrogen bonding interactions. The nucleobase exists in the lattice as the 7H-adenine tautomer which represents an unprecedented solid-state characterization of this minor tautomer as free molecule (without metal coordination) stabilized through non-covalent interactions. Compound consists of two slightly different [Cu(ox)(H2O)(7H-ade-kappaN9)] units in which the nucleobase coordinates through the imidazole N9 atom. The planar complex entities are parallel stacked and joined by means of long Cu-O bonds involving oxygen atoms from the oxalato and the aqua ligands, giving one-dimensional chains with a [4 + 1] square-planar pyramidal and a [4 + 2] octahedral coordination around the metal centre, respectively. Self-assembled process of compound 3 is further driven by an in-plane network of hydrogen bonding interactions to generate a porous 3D structure containing parallel channels filled by guest water molecules. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of all the complexes show the occurrence of antiferromagnetic interactions between the paramagnetic centres. DFT calculations have been performed to check the influence of packing in the stability of the 7H-amino tautomer of 2 and in the complex geometry of 3.     

A unique single carboxylate-bridged spin-frustrated chiral Mn(II) metallatriangle

The reaction between Hmbpymca ligand (prepared in situ from the hydrolysis of 5-methyl-4-cyano-bispyrimidine with NaOH and further neutralization with 2 M HCl) and Mn(ClO(4))(2)·4H(2)O in 1:1 molar ratio afforded the triangulo-trimanganese(II) complex [Mn(3)(bpymca)(3)(H(2)O)(6)]Cl(3)·6H(2)O 1. The chloride anions in this complex come from the HCl used in the neutralization process. The molecular structure of 1 consists of cationic molecular triangles [Mn(3)(μ-mbpymca)(3)(H(2)O)(6)](3+) with C(3) symmetry, chloride anions and crystallization water molecules, all of them involved in an extensive network of hydrogen bonds, leading to a chiral network. Within the [Mn(3)(μ-mbpymca)(3)(H(2)O)(6)](3+) cations, seven-coordinated Mn(II) ions are bridged by both oxygen atoms of the carboxylate groups and exhibit a MnO(5)N(2) compressed pentagonal bipyramidal coordination environment. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility shows the presence of weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Mn(II) ions mediated by the carboxylate group of the mbpymca ligand and the existence of a 3D antiferromagnetic ordering below 4 K, which has its origin in the AF inter-trimer exchange interactions mediated by the strong hydrogen bonds present in the crystal of 1. The experimental magnetic susceptibility data above 7 K could be satisfactorily fitted to the theoretical analytical expression derived from the spin Hamiltonian H = -J(S(1)S(2) + S(1)S(3) + S(2)S(3)) with J = -0.782(3) cm(-1) and g = 2.092(3). The model predicts a degenerate ground state with an S = 1/2, which is typical of triangular trimetallic spin frustrated systems containing metal with non-integer spins. DFT calculations were performed on the molecular structure as found in the solid state to support the experimental J value and the Mn-O(carb)-Mn as the primarily exchange pathway.     

蝎型钒氧配合物Tp*VO(OOCHCCHCOOCH3)(pz*H)和Tp*VO(DMSO)(NCS)的合成、结构及量子化学研究

New lead inorganic-organic hybrid microporous and layered materials: synthesis,properties, and crystal structures

Two new lead(II) phosphonates, namely, Pb2[PMIDA]*1.5H2O (1) (H4PMIDA = H2O3PCH2N(CH2CO2H)2) and Pb(H2L) (2) (H4L = CH3N(CH2PO3H2)2), have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions at 150 degrees C. Complex 1 crystallized in tetragonal P42/n with cell dimensions of a = 17.317(7) and c = 7.507(5) A and Z = 8. In complex 1, Pb(1) is 6-coordinated by chelation in a tetradentate fashion by a PMIDA ligand (3 O, 1 N) and two phosphonate oxygen atoms from neighboring Pb(PMIDA) units in a severely distorted octahedral geometry, whereas Pb(2) is 6-coordinated by 4 carboxylate and 2 phosphonate oxygen atoms also with a severely distorted octahedral environment. These two different types of Pb(II) ions are interconnected through bridging carboxylate and phosphonate groups, resulting in a 3D network with micropores, whose cavity is filled by lattice water molecules interlinked via hydrogen bonds. Each PMIDA ligand bridges with 8 Pb(II) ions (3 Pb(1) and 5 Pb(2)). Complex 2 is orthorhombic, P2(1)2(1)2(1), with a = 7.382(5), b = 7.440(6), and c = 30.75(2) A and Z = 8. The structure of 2 features a 2D double lead(II) phosphonate layer along the ab plane. Each lead(II) ion is 5-coordinated by five phosphonate oxygen atoms from four ligands in a distorted trigonal bipyramid geometry. These double layers are further interconnected via hydrogen bonds between the protonated and uncoordinated phosphonate oxygens along the c-axis.     

Comments on the nature of the bonding in oxygenated dinuclear copper enzyme models

The nature of the bonding in model complexes of di-copper metalloenzymes has been analyzed by means of the electronic localization function (ELF) and by the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM). The constrained space orbital variations (CSOV) approach has also been used. Density functional theory (DFT) and CASSCF calculations have been carried out on several models of tyrosinase such as the sole Cu2O22+ central core, the Cu2O2(NH3)62+ complex and the Cu2O2(Imidazol)62+ complex. The influence on the central Cu(2)O(2) moiety of both levels of calculation and ligand environment have been discussed. The distinct bonding modes have been characterized for the two major known structures: [Cu(2)(mu-eta(2): eta(2)-O(2))](2+) and [Cu(2)(mu-O(2))](2+). Particular attention has been given to the analysis of the O-O and Cu-O bonds and the nature of the bonding modes has also been analyzed in terms of mesomeric structures. The ELF topological approach shows a significant conservation of the topology between the DFT and CASSCF approaches. Particularly, three-center Cu-O-Cu bonds are observed when the ligands are attached to the central core. At the DFT level, the importance of self interaction effects are emphasized. Although, the DFT approach does not appear to be suitable for the computation of the electronic structure of the isolated Cu(2)O(2) central core, competitive self interaction mechanisms lead to an imperfect but acceptable model when using imidazol ligands. Our results confirm to a certain extent the observations of [M.F. Rode, H.J. Werner, Theoretical Chemistry Accounts 4-5 (2005) 247.] who found a qualitative agreement between B3LYP and localized MRCI calculations when dealing with the Cu(2)O(2) central core with six ammonia ligands.     

Asymmetric terminal ligation on substituted sites in a disorder-free Keggin anion, [beta-SiFe2W10O36(OH)2(H2O)Cl]5-

A new monomeric diiron beta-Keggin derivative, [(CH3)2NH2]5[beta-SiFe2W10O36(OH)2(H2O)Cl].7H2O (1) with non-adjacent substituted sites has been obtained in good yield by reaction of Fe(III) cations with [gamma-SiW10O36]8- in aqueous solution. The use of hydrogen bonding counter-cations produced a disorder-free polyanion. This situation facilitates unequivocal identification of the terminal ligands on Fe atoms and interpretation of the magnetic properties, which are also addressed by DFT calculations. Electrochemical studies establish that 1 can be step-wise reduced by two electrons and then reversibly oxidized.

Group 12 metal zwitterionic thiolate compounds: preparation and structural characterization

Reactions of TabHPF(6) (Tab = 4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate) with three equiv. of M(OAc)(2)·2H(2)O (M = Zn, Cd) gave rise to two tetranuclear adamantane-like compounds, [M(4)(μ-Tab)(6)(Tab)(4)](PF(6))(8)·S (·S: M = Zn, S = DMF·4H(2)O; ·S: M = Cd, S = DMF·5H(2)O). The similar reactions of MCl(2) (M = Zn, Cd, Hg) with four equiv. of TabHPF(6) in the presence of Et(3)N afforded three mononuclear compounds [M(Tab)(4)](PF(6))(2)·S (·S: M = Zn, S = 2(H(2)O)(0.5); ·S: M = Cd, S = 2(H(2)O)(0.5); ·S: M = Hg, S = 2DMF). Treatment of the precursor complex or with equimolar MCl(2) and two equiv. of TabHPF(6) and Et(3)N produced one dinuclear compounds [M(μ-Tab)(Tab)(2)](2)(PF(6))(4)·2DMF·2H(2)O (·2DMF·2H(2)O: M = Zn; ·2DMF·2H(2)O: M = Hg) while analogous reactions of with CdCl(2)·2H(2)O gave rise to [Cd(μ-Tab)(2)(Tab)](2)(PF(6))(4)·2DMF (·2DMF). These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, UV-Vis spectra, (1)H NMR and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. In or , four M(2+) ions and six S atoms of Tab ligands constitute an adamantane-like [M(4)(μ-S)(6)] cage in which each M(2+) ion is tetrahedrally coordinated by one terminal S and three bridged S atoms from four different Tab ligands. In , each M(2+) center of the [M(Tab)(4)](2+) dication is tetrahedrally coordinated by four S atoms of Tab ligand. Two [M(Tab)(2)](2+) dications in or are further bridged by a pair of Tab ligands to form a dimeric [M(μ-Tab)(Tab)(2)](2)(4+) structure. Each dimeric [(Tab)Cd(μ-Tab)(2)Cd(Tab)](4+) unit in is linked to its two neighboring units via two couples of bridging Tab ligands, thereby generating a unique 1D cationic chain. These results may provide useful information on interpreting structural data of MTs containing group 12 metals.     

Ferromagnetic heterotrinuclear Cu-Ni complexes of a compartmental chiral Schiff base

Nickel(II) and copper(II) acetate react with the trinucleating compartmental Schiff base H(4)L (H(4)L = 6,6'-(E)-3,3'-(ethane-1,2-diyl)bis(1-(2-((E)-3-bromo-5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)ethyl)imidazolidine-3,2-diyl)bis(2-bromo-4-chlorophenol)) to produce the heterotrinuclear complexes [Ni(2)CuL(OAc)(2)]·0.25H(2)O·2.5MeOH (1·0.25H(2)O·2.5MeOH) and [NiCu(2)L(OAc)(2)]·3.25H(2)O·0.5MeOH (2·3.25H(2)O·0.5MeOH) as a function of the Ni(OAc)(2)?:?Cu(OAc)(2) molar ratio. The crystal structures of H(4)L, 1·0.25H(2)O·2.5MeOH and 2·3.25H(2)O·0.5MeOH could be solved. The free ligand presents two stereogenic methine groups on the imidazolidine heterocycles. X-Ray diffraction studies on H(4)L determined that the solved crystal structure corresponds to a racemate formed by the (2R,2'R) and (2S,2'S) enantiomers, without detecting the (2R,2'S) diastereoisomer. The crystal structures of both heterotrinuclear complexes reveal that Ni(II) has a preference for the central ligand pocket, showing that this cavity discriminates between Ni(II) and Cu(II) when both species are present in the reaction medium. These results are validated by DFT calculations. As a consequence of the coordination, 1·0.25H(2)O·2.5MeOH and 2·3.25H(2)O·0.5MeOH are also chiral, but crystallise as racemates. In addition to their asymmetric methine groups, these complexes present four other stereogenic centres: the four coordinated imidazolidine N atoms. The luminescent properties of the ligand and both complexes were analysed, showing that the presence of the metals partially inhibits the emission of the ligand and apparently tunes the position of the secondary fluorescence emission band. The magnetic characterisation of 1·0.25H(2)O·2.5MeOH and 2·3.25H(2)O·0.5MeOH was also performed, showing the ferromagnetic behaviour of both complexes.
