Thermal and spectral studies of 5-(phenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin and 5-(2- hydroxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II)

Complexes of 5-(phenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin (L¹) and 5-(2-hydroxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin (HL²) with Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) salts have been synthesised and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, UV-Vis, IR, ESR and TG studies. The magnetic and spectral data suggested octahedral geometry for [L¹M(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂]·xH₂O {M=Ni^ll and Cu^ll} and [L¹CuCl₂(H₂O)]·H₂O (dimeric form for the latter), trigonal bipyramidal geometry for [L²Co(OAc)(H₂O)]·2H₂O, square pyramidal geometry for [L²Ni(OAc)(H₂O)]·H₂O and square planar geometry for [L²CuCl]·2H₂O. TG studies confirmed the chemical formulations of these complexes and showed that their thermal degradation takes place in three to five steps, depending on the type of the ligand and the geometry of the complex. The kinetic parameters (n, E^#, A, ΔH^#, ΔS^# and ΔG^#) of the thermal decomposition stages were computed using the Coats-Redfern and other standard equations and are discussed.     

Spectroscopic,magnetic and thermal studies on complexes of Cu(II) and VO2+ with diacetylmonoxime derivatives: new method for extraction of Cu(II)

The coordination behavior of Cu(II) and VO²⁺ towards some oximes has been investigated. The isolated complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic moment, spectra (electronic, IR, ESR and mass) and thermal measurements. The IR spectra showed most ligands are deprotonated during complex formation acting as mononegative bi- or tridentate, binegative tetradentate and neutral tridentate. The magnetic moments and electronic spectra showed octahedral, square pyramidal and square-planar structures for the Cu(II) and VO²⁺ complexes. The ESR spectra of the complexes are quite similar and exhibit axial symmetric g-tensor parameters with g _∥ > g _⊥ > 2.0023 and confirmed the structures. The TG curves showed decomposition steps and indicate stability of the complexes. The ligands can remove Cu(II) ions from water by flotation technology using oleic acid surfactant with high efficiency.

The syntheses and crystal structures of four new divalent transition metal complexes of the types [Cu₂(dien)₂(nic)](ClO₄)₃ · MeOH (nic = anion of nicotinic acid; dien = diethylenetriamine), 1; [Cu(dien)(nic)]₂(nic)₂, 2; [Cu(dien)(nic)]₂(BF₄)₂ · 2MeOH, 3 and [Ni(dien)(nic)(H₂O)]₄(NO₃)₄ · 2MeOH, 4, are reported, which were prepared by the reactions of diethylenetriamine and nicotinic acid with Cu(ClO₄)₂ · 6H₂O, Cu(OAc)₂ · H₂O, Cu(BF₄)₂ · 6H₂O and Ni(NO₃)₂ · 6H₂O in MeOH, respectively. These complexes were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method and elemental analyses. In the cation of complex 1, one nicotinate ligand bridges two Cu(II) metal centers through the pyridyl nitrogen atom and one of the carboxylate oxygen atoms. The cations of complexes 2 and 3 form the twelve-membered metallocycles, involving two Cu(II) ions that are bridged by two nicotinate ligands. The cation of complex 4 forms a tetranuclear cage with the four Ni(II) metal centers bridged by four nicotinate ligands and each Ni(II) metal center adopts the distorted octahedral geometry. Their thermal properties have been investigated by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA).     

Synthesis, spectroscopy and structures of palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes containing mercapto-o-carborane

The reactions of [M₂Cl₂(μ-Cl)₂(PMe₂Ph)₂] with mercapto-o-carboranes in the presence of pyridine afforded mono-nuclear complexes of composition, [MCl(SCb°R)(py)(PMe₂Ph)] (M = Pd or Pt; Cb° = o-C₂B₁₀H₁₀; R = H or Ph). The treatment of [PdCl₂(PEt₃)₂] with PhCb°SH yielded trans-[Pd(SCb°Ph)₂(PEt₃)₂] (4) which when left in solution in the presence of pyridine gave another substitution product, [Pd(SCb°Ph)₂(py)(PEt₃)] (5). The structures of [PdCl(SCb°Ph)(py)(PMe₂Ph)] (1), [Pd(SCb°Ph)₂(PEt₃)₂] (4) and [Pd(SCb^oPh)₂(py)(PEt₃)] (5) were established unambiguously by X-ray crystallography. The palladium atom in these complexes adopts a distorted square-planar configuration with neutral donor atoms occupying the trans positions. Thermolysis of [PdCl(SCb°)(py)(PMe₂Ph)] (2) in TOPO (trioctylphosphine oxide) at 200 °C gave nanocrystals of TOPO capped Pd₄S which were characterized by XRD pattern and SEM.     

Excited state properties of transition metal phosphine complexes

Phosphine ligands determine the excited state properties of a variety of coordination compounds. Phosphines not only influence metal-centered excited states, but participate directly in charge transfer transitions owing to their electron donating and accepting ability. Moreover, intraligand excited states are accessible if the phosphine carries suitable substituents. This diversity is illustrated by selected examples. The excited state behavior is discussed on the basis of spectral (absorption and emission) and photochemical properties of appropriate phosphine complexes.     

Synthesis and spectroscopic,magnetic and cyclic voltammetric characterization of some metal complexes of methionine: [(C5H10NO2S)2MII]; MII = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II)

Some metal complexes of DL–methionine were prepared in aqueous medium and characterized by different physico-chemical methods. Methionine forms 1:2 complexes with metal, M(II). The general empirical formula of the complexes is proposed as [(C₅H₁₀NO₂S)₂M^II]; where M^II = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II). All the complexes are extremely stable in light and air and optically inactive. Magnetic susceptibility data of the complexes demonstrate that they are high spin paramagnetic complex except Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) complexes. The bonding pattern in the complexes are similar to each other as indicated by electronic absorption spectra and FTIR spectral analysis. The current potential data, peak separation (AE) and the peak current ratio (i_pa/i_pc) of the (Mn, Cu and Cd) complexes indicate that the charge transfer processes are irreversible, the systems are diffusion controlled and also adsorptive controlled. The charge transfer rate constant of metals in their complexes are less than those in their metal salts at identical experimental conditions due to the coordination of metal with methionine.     

Synthesis and characterization of oxazolone complexes with Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) in different counterions

Oxazolone forms (1:1) complexes with Fe²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ chlorides, as well as forms (1:1) complexes with Co²⁺ and Cu²⁺ acetates. All the complexes are found to be non-electrolytes in DMF; tetrahedral, square-planar and octahedral structures are assigned to them based on electronic and magnetic data. IR studies reveal that the complexes are formed by donating the lone-pair electron from O and N atoms to the metal ion. The thermal decomposition of the [ML·mX·nH₂O]_y·H₂O chelates was studied by TG–DTA techniques. The mechanism of the decomposition has been established from TG–DTA data. The kinetic parameters, activation energy (E_a) and pre-exponential factor (A), were calculated from TG curves using Coats and Redfern method. Relative thermal stabilities of the chelates have been evaluated on the basis of these parameters.

Spectroscopic and thermal investigations of Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Al(III) caproates

Five complexes: Cu(cap)₂·4H₂O, Zn(cap)₂, Cd(cap)₂·4H₂O, Pb(cap)₂ and Al(cap)₃·4H₂O (where cap is the caproate anion?=?CH₃(CH₂)₄COO^?) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA), UV-Vis spectra, ¹H NMR and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). Using the non-isothermal, Horowitz-Metzger (HM) and Coats-Redfern methods, the kinetic parameters for the non-isothermal degradation of the complexes were calculated using TG data. The infrared and ¹H NMR data are in agreement with coordination through carboxylate, with cap acting as a bridging bidentate ligand. Thermogravimetric analysis of the hydrated complexes shows that the first degradation step is release of water molecules followed by decomposition of the anhydrous complexes, with release of caproate molecules.

The IR data show that the ligand is neutral bidentate, monobasic bidentate, monobasic tridentate or dibasic tridentate towards the metal ion. Molar conductances in DMF indicate that the complexes are non-electrolytes. The ESR spectra of solid [(L)(HL)Cu₂(NO₃)(H₂O)]·1/2H₂O (10) and [(H₂L)Cu(Cl)₂(H₂O)₂] (11) show axial spectra with g_∥ >?g_⊥ >?2.0023 indicating d_(x²???y²) ground state with significant covalent bond character. However, [(HL)₂Mn₂(Cl)₂(H₂O)₄·H₂O (13) shows an isotropic spectrum, indicating manganese(II) to be octahedral.

Studies of thermal decomposition of palladium(II) complexes with olefin ligands

Thermal decomposition kinetics of ML₂ (M = Ni(II) and Co(II); L = 5-(2-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)hydrazono)-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione) complexes were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The first decomposition process of the NiL₂ and CoL₂ complexes occurs in the temperature range of 320–350 °C. Kinetics parameters corresponding to this step, such as activation energy, E_α, and apparent pre-exponential factor, ln A_aap, were calculated from the thermogravimetric data at the heating rates of 5, 10, 15 and 20 K min⁻¹ by differential (Friedman's equation) and integral (Flynn–Wall–Ozawa's equation) methods. The results show that the activation energy evidently depends on the extent of conversion. As far as their activation energy is concerned, NiL₂ complex shows a higher thermal stability than the CoL₂ complex.
