Syntheses,Structures, and Thermal Reactivity of New ZnII and CdII Thio‐ and Selenocyanato Coordination Compounds

Reaction of Zn^II and Cd^II thiocyanate or selenocyanate with pyrazine leads to the formation of new Zn^II and Cd^II coordination compounds. The structures of [Zn(NCSe)₂(pyrazine)₂]_n ( 1A ), [Cd(NCS)₂(pyrazine)₂]_n ( 2A ) and [Cd(NCSe)₂(pyrazine)₂]_n ( 3A ) consist of octahedrally coordinated metal cations which are surrounded by two terminal N‐bonded anions and two μ₂‐bridging pyrazine molecules. The metal cations are connected via the pyrazine ligands into layers, which are further linked by weak intermolecular S···S respectively Se···Se interactions. Investigations on the thermal degradation behavior of 1A , 2A , and 3A using simultaneous differential thermoanalysis and thermogravimetry as well as X‐ray powder diffraction, IR‐ and Raman spectroscopy prove that on heating, the pyrazine‐rich compound 1A decomposes in one step into zinc selenocyanate without the formation of a pyrazine‐deficient intermediate. In contrast, for compounds 2A and 3A a stepwise decomposition is observed, leading to the formation of the pyrazine‐deficient compounds [Cd(NCS)₂(pyrazine)]_n ( 2B‐I and 2B‐II ) and [Cd(NCSe)₂(pyrazine)]_n ( 3B ) as intermediates. The structures and the thermal reactivity are discussed and compared with that of related transition metal thiocyanates and selenocyanates with pyridine as N‐donor ligand.     

Investigations on the Structure Diversity and Thermal Degradation Behavior of CdII and ZnII Thiocyanato Coordination Compounds based on 3‐Acetylpyridine as Neutral Co‐Ligand

Reaction of Cd^II and Zn^II thiocyanate with 3‐acetylpyridine leads to the formation of the new Cd^II and Zn^II coordination compounds [Cd(NCS)₂(3‐acetylpyridine)₄] ( 1A ), [Cd(NCS)₂(3‐acetylpyridine)₂]_n ( 1B ), [Cd(NCS)₂(3‐acetylpyridine)]_n ( 1C ) and [Zn(NCS)₂(3‐acetylpyridine)₂] ( 2A ). Compound 1A consists of discrete complexes, in which the metal centers are octahedrally coordinated by four terminal bonded N‐donor co‐ligands and two terminal N‐bonded thiocyanato anions. In compound 2A the metal centers are only tetrahedrally coordinated by two terminal bonded N‐donor co‐ligands and two terminal N‐bonded thiocyanato anions. In compound 1B the Cd^II cations are octahedrally coordinated by two terminal bonded N‐donor co‐ligands and four thiocyanato anions. The metal centers are linked by μ‐1, 3 bridging thiocyanato anions into chains. In compound 1C the metal cations are octahedrally coordinated by two μ‐1, 5 bridging 3‐acetyl‐pyridine ligands and four μ‐1, 3 bridging thiocyanato anions building up a three‐dimensional coordination network. Investigations on the thermal degradation behavior of all compounds using simultaneous differential thermoanalysis and thermogravimetry as well as X‐ray powder diffraction and IR spectroscopy prove that on heating compound 2A decompose without the formation of 3‐acetylpyridine‐deficient intermediates. In contrast, for compound 1A a stepwise decomposition is observed, leading to the formation of the 3‐acetylpyridine‐deficient compound [Cd(NCS)₂(3‐acetylpyridine)₂]_n ( 1B ) which decomposes on further heating

Luminescent Thermochromism of 2D Coordination Polymers Based on Copper(I) Halides with 4‐Hydroxythiophenol

Solvothermal reactions between copper(I) halides and 4‐mercaptophenol give rise to the formation of three coordination polymers with general formula [Cu₃X(HT)₂]_n (X=Cl, 1 ; Br, 2 ; and I, 3 ). The structures of these coordination polymers have been determined by X‐ray diffraction at both room‐ and low temperature (110 K), showing a general shortening in Cu?S, Cu?X and Cu?Cu bond lengths at low temperatures. 1 and 2 are isostructural, consisting of layers in which the halogen ligands act as μ₃‐bridges joining two Cu1 and one Cu2 atoms whereas in 3 the iodine ligands is as μ₄‐mode but the layers are quasi‐isostructural with 1 or 2 . These compounds show a reversible thermochromic luminescence, with strong orange emission for 1 and 2 , but weaker for 3 at room temperature, whereas upon cooling at 77 K 1 and 2 show stronger yellow emission, and 3 displays stronger green emission. DFT calculations have been used to rationalize these observations. These results suggest a high potential for this novel and promising stimuli‐responsive materials.

Rational shaping of liquid crystalline diacylaminophenyl platforms equipped with chelating fragments,fluorescent dyes,and square planar platinum complexes

Recent investigations from our laboratory have described compelling experimental evidences that the use of a central 4‐methyl‐3,5‐diacylaminophenyl platform functionalized with two lateral aromatic rings each bearing three appended aliphatic chains is well‐suited to produce liquid crystalline materials, some of which carrying at the tips (A‐substitution position) chelating fragments such as phenanthroline, terpyridine, alkynyl functions, crown ethers or highly luminescent subunits such as difluoroboradiazaindacene or cationic platinum‐terpyridine complexes. An important carvet of this research program is that the presence of amide functions likely stabilizes the mesophases by hydrogen bondings. Judicious grafting of polycatenar tails to the platform insures formation of mesomorphic materials over a large temperature range. Careful design of the system by the direct connection of the platform via alkyne bonds to square planar platinum centers give rise to intriguing phosphorescent metallomesogens. © 2009 The Japan Chemical Journal Forum and Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

From a Well-Defined Organozinc Precursor to Diverse Luminescent Coordination Polymers Based on Zn(II)-Quinolinate Building Units Interconnected by Mixed Ligand Systems

Introduction of photoactive building blocks into mixed-ligand coordination polymers appears to be a promising way to produce new advanced luminescent materials. However, rational design and self-assembly of the multi-component supramolecular systems is challenging from both a conceptual and synthetic perspective. Here, we report exploratory studies that investigate the potential of [Zn(q)₂]₂[tBuZn(OH)]₂ complex (q = deprotonated 8-hydroxyquinoline) as an organozinc precursor as well as a mixed-ligand synthetic strategy for the preparation of new luminescent coordination polymers (CPs). As a result we present three new 2D mixed-ligand Zn(II)-quinolinate coordination polymers which are based on various zinc quinolinate secondary building units interconnected by two different organic linker types, i.e., deprotonated 4,4′-oxybisbenzoic acid (H₂obc) as a flexible dicarboxylate linker and/or selected bipyridines (bipy). Remarkably, using the title organozinc precursors in a combination with H₂obc and 4,4′-bipyridine, a novel molecular zinc quinolinate building unit, [Zn₄(q)₆(bipy)₂(obc)₂], was obtained which self-assembled into a chain-type hydrogen-bonded network. The application of the organometallic precursor allowed for its direct reaction with the selected ligands at ambient temperature, avoiding the use of both solvothermal conditions and additional base reagents. In turn, the reaction involving Zn(NO₃)₂, as a classical inorganic precursor, in a combination with H₂obc and bipy led to a novel 1D coordination polymer [Zn₂(q)₂(NO₃)₂(bipy)]. While the presence of H₂obc was essential for the formation of this coordination polymer, this ditopic linker was not incorporated into the isolated product, which indicates its templating behavior. The reported compounds were characterized by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis as well as UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy.     

Rare Tautomers of 1‐Methyluracil and 1‐Methylthymine: Tuning Relative Stabilities through Coordination to PtII Complexes

We have computationally explored how the relative stabilities of 1‐methyluracil (1‐MeUH) tautomers can be tuned through coordination of these tautomers to Pt^II complexes with a particular set of ligands. This has been done using density functional theory at the BP86/TZ2P level. Thus, we have examined the water/1‐MeUH exchange reactions of [Pt^II(A)(B)(C)(OH₂)]^q + 1‐MeUH to uncover: i) which tautomers are best stabilized by the Pt^II complex, and ii) how the net charge q in the complex affects the reaction energy. The net charge q depends on the ligands A, B, and C, which can be the neutral NH₃ or anionic Cl^?. To reveal the effect of solvation, all reaction systems are studied both in the gas phase and in water. Also the stabilization of tautomers of 1‐methylthymine (1‐MeTH) by cisplatin is investigated. The calculations reveal that relative energies of the metal (here: Pt^II)‐complexed forms of the various tautomers (here: of 1‐MeUH and 1‐MeTH) do not parallel those of the free tautomers. Rather, a rare nucleobase tautomer, despite its low natural abundance, may become favored over the predominant one when complexed to a metal ion.     

Coordination polymers derived from magnesium and barium complexes of redox-active ligands

The reactions of monomeric complexes [(dpp-bian)M(THF)_n](M = Mg, n = 3; M = Ba, n = 5; dpp-bian = 1,2-bis[(2,6-di-isopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene) with 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bipy) in THF proceed with electron transfer from dpp- bian2– to 4,4'-bipy0 to afford 1D coordination polymers [(dpp-bian)M(4,4'-bipy)(THF)_n]_m (M = Mg, n = 1; M = Ba, n = 2) that contain simultaneously radical anion ligands dpp-bian– and 4,4'-bipy . Addition of DME to coordination polymer [(dpp-bian)Mg(4,4'-bipy)(THF)_n]_m results in fragmentation of polymeric chains to give dinuclear magnesium species [{(dpp-bian)Mg(DME)}₂(4,4'-bipy)]. Barium analogue [{(dpp-bian)Ba(DME)₂}₂(4,4'-bipy)] has been prepared by reacting of complex [(dpp-bian)Ba(DME)2.5] with 4,4'-bipy in DME.     

Coordination around thorium(IV) in aqueous perchlorate,chloride and nitrate solutions

The coordination around the thorium(IV) ion in aqueous perchlorate, chloride and nitrate solutions has been determined from large angle X-ray scattering measurements. In perchlorate solutions, where inner-sphere complexes are not formed, the first coordination sphere contains 8.0±0.5 water molecules with Th-H₂O bond lengths of 2.48₅ Å. In chloride solutions inner-sphere complexes are formed, which lead to an increase in the coordination number. In nitrate solutions the nitrate ions are bonded as bidentate ligands to the thorium ion. The bond lengths are similar to those found in crystalline hydrates of thorium nitrate. The coordination numbers found for thorium(IV) in solution are compared with previously reported values for lower charged ions of similar size.On leave from Department of Inorganic Chemistry Royal Institute of Technology S-10044 Stockholm Sweden

Reduced Graphene Oxide Functionalized with a Luminescent Rare‐Earth Complex for the Tracking and Photothermal Killing of Drug‐Resistant Bacteria

An antibacterial platform based on multifunctional reduced graphene oxide (rGO) that is responsive to near‐infrared (NIR) light has been constructed. By introducing a luminescent Eu³⁺ complex and vancomycin for bacteria tracking into one system, this platform could specifically recognize and light up bacteria. Antibacterial activity of this nanoscale construction under NIR illumination was investigated. Upon illumination with NIR light, this nanoscale architecture generates great heat locally, resulting in the death of drug‐resistant bacteria. These results indicate that the ability of this nanoscale platform to kill drug‐resistant bacteria has great potential for clinical pathogenic bacteria diagnosis and treatment.

Luminescent sensors based on coordination polymers with adjustable emissions for detecting biomarker of pollutant ethylbenzene and styrene

Sensitive luminescent probes for phenylglyoxylic acid (PGA), which is a biomarker of ethylbenzene and styrene (EB/S) representing the internal dose of EB/S exposure, have been constructed on the basis of newly designed luminescent coordination polymers (LCPs). Three isostructural LCPs with different lanthanide centers were solvothermally synthesized and fully characterized. All the LCPs 1 – 3 display strong regulated emissions by the adjustable metal–organic coordination interactions. Among LCPs 1 – 3 , the fabricated LCP 2 can quantitatively detect PGA with the highest sensitivity in physiologically relevant ranges. The mechanism study of luminescent responses toward PGA further explains the excellent sensitivity and selectivity of LCP 2 for sensing PGA. The facile, accurate, fast, and recyclable sensing system relying on LCP materials provides a convenient approach for developing sensing platforms with adjustable emissions for assessment of the intoxication level of EB/S.
