Synthesis, spectroscopic studies and nonlinear optical behavior of N,N′-bis(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylmethylidene)-1-methyl-1,2-diaminoethane-N,N′,O,O′-nickel(II)

A Schiff base complex N,N′-bis(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylmethylidene)-1-methyl-1,2- diaminoethane-N,N′,O,O′-nickel(II) has been synthesized. The title compound has been characterized by FT-IR and UV–vis spectroscopies. The UV–vis experiments indicate that the compound has solvatochromism in the UV region, implying non-zero molecular first hyperpolarizability. To investigate microscopic second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) behavior of the examined complex, the electric dipole moments (μ) and the first static hyperpolarizabilities (β) were computed using Finite Field second-order Møller Plesset (FF MP2) perturbation procedure. According to ab initio quantum mechanical calculations, the title complex exhibits non-zero β values, revealing microscopic second-order NLO behavior.

Molecular and crystal structures of N,N′-propylene- and N,N′-phenylene-diylbis [3-(1-aminoethyl)-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione]

Two macrocyclic ligands, N,N′-propylene-diylbis[3-(1-aminoethyl)-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione] I and N,N′-phenylene-diylbis[3-(1-aminoethyl)-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione] II, have been prepared by the condensation of dehydroacetic acid (3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one) with 1,2-phenylenediamine and 1,3-propylenediamine. They have been characterized by means of elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray crystallography. The molecular structures of the compounds I and II can be described as consisting of two β-enaminone-2-pyrone rings interlaced with either alkyl chain in I or phenyl ring in II. The X-ray studies confirmed the existence of strong N–HO intramolecular hydrogen bonds in both structures. Their lengths are in accordance to lengths of RAHB intramolecular hydrogen bonds in 1,3-diketones, aryl-hydrazones, β-enaminones and related heterodienes (2.5–2.6 Å) [P. Gilli, V. Bertolasi, V. Ferretti and G. Gilli, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 122 (2000) 10405].     

Potential of ethylenediaminedi(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid) and N,N′-bis(hydroxybenzyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid for the determination of metal ions by capillary electrophoresis

Two aromatic polyaminocarboxylate ligands, ethylenediaminedi(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid) (EDDHA) and N,N′-bis(hydroxybenzyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid (HBED), were applied for the separation of transition and heavy metal ions by the ion-exchange variant of electrokinetic chromatography. EDDHA structure contains two chiral carbon centers. It makes it impossible to use the commercially available ligand. All the studied metal ions showed two peaks, which correspond to meso and rac forms of the ligand. The separation of metal–HBED chelates was performed using poly(diallyldimethylammonium) polycations in mixed acetate–hydroxide form. Simultaneous separation of nine single- and nine double-charged HBED chelates, including In(III), Ga(III), Co(II)–(III) and Mn(II)–(III) pairs demonstrated the efficiency of 40 000–400 000 theoretical plates. The separation of Co(III), Fe(III) complexes with different arrangements of donor groups and oxidation of Co(II), Mn(II), Fe(II) ions in reaction with HBED have been discussed.     

Synthesis and characterization of [chloro{2(1H)-pyridinethione-S}{tris(pyridin-2-ylthiolato)methyl-C,N,N′,N″]}nickel(II)], [Ni(TPTM)(SPyH)Cl]

The compound, [chloro{2(1H)-pyridinethione-S}{tris(pyridin-2-ylthiolato)methyl-C,N,N′,N″]}nickel(II)], [Ni(TPTM)(SPyH)Cl], was isolated from the reaction between NiCl₂ · 6H₂O and tris(pyridin-2-ylthiolato)methane in aqueous EtOH. X-ray crystallography at 120 K revealed an octahedral arrangement about Ni with a tetradentate tris(pyridin-2-ylthio)methyl-C,N,N,N ligand, a monodentate 2(1H)-pyridinethione-S ligand and a chloride. The 2(1H)-pyridinethione-S ligand was derived from tris(pyridin-2-ylthio)methane probably via an acid catalysed hydrolysis reaction. Intramolecular N–H–Cl and C–H–Cl interactions help to cement the molecular structure. Weak C–H–Cl and C–H–S hydrogen bonding interactions link molecules of [Ni(TPTM)(SPyH)Cl] into a 3D array. EPR and UV spectra, and Hartree–Fock theoretical calculations are reported.     

Temperature dependence vapour pressure measurements of Mg(tmhd)2(tmeda) [(tmhd = 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione, tmeda = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine]

The reaction between the magnesium β-diketonate complex Mg(tmhd)₂(H₂O)₂ and 1 equiv. of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmeda = Me₂NCH₂CH₂NMe₂) in hexane at room temperature yielded Mg(tmhd)₂(tmeda). The standard enthalpy of sublimation (83.2 ± 2.3 kJ mol⁻¹) and entropy of sublimation (263 ± 6.3 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) of Mg(tmhd)₂(tmeda) were obtained from the temperature dependence vapour pressure, determined by adopting a horizontal dual arm single furnace thermogravimetric analyser as a transpiration apparatus. From the observed melting point depression DTA, the standard enthalpy of fusion (58.3 ± 5.2 kJ mol⁻¹) was evaluated, using the ideal eutectic behaviour of Mg(tmhd)₂(tmeda) as a solvent with bis(2,4-pentanedionato)magnesium(II), Mg(acac)₂ as a non-volatile solute.
