Synthesis and Structure of Bis（indene—1,2,3—trione 2—oximato）bis （aqua）Mn（Ⅱ）：Mn（C9H4NO3）2（H2O）2

1 INTRODUCTION The interest in the complexes of transition metals with ligands ketoxime[1, 2] as potential models for metal binding sites in ferroverdin[3, 4] has prompted the investigation on the structures and the overall coordination geometry of the metal centers in these complexes. Oxime derivatives are interesting ligands since the ketoximes are found to chelate transition metals through the N (oxime) and O (ketone) atoms[5, 6]. However, monodentate coordination via only one O or …     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Cadmium（Ⅱ） Complex [Cd（H2O）（CH3OC6H4COO）2]n

1 INTRODUCTION Cadmium (Ⅱ) complexes have been exten- sively studied from both chemical and structural views, mainly due to the capability of cadmium (Ⅱ) (shared by most d10 metal ions) to adopt different modes of coordination determined by the consideration of size, as well as electrostatic and covalent bonding forces[1]. And the field of coordination polymers has witnessed tremendous growth over the last decade[2]. Many coordination polymeric networks have been shown to posses intere…

Transition metal complexes of such ligands[2] are potential models for metal binding sites in ferroverdin[3]. They were found as dyes and light-absorbing agents for the acceleration of the sol…     

Syntheses and solid-state and solution structures of [Ba[(C5Me5)2Ti2F7]2(hmpa)] and [Ba8Ti6F30I2(C5Me5)6(hmpa)6][I3]2

The complexes [Ba[(C5Me5)2Ti2F7]2(hmpa)].(THF), 1.hmpa.(THF), and [Ba8Ti6F30I2(C5Me5)6(hmpa)6][I3]2.10(THF), 2[I3]2.10(THF), were prepared from [Hdmpy](+)[(C5Me5)2Ti2F7]- (dmpy = 2,6-dimethylpyridine), BaI2, and hmpa (hmpa = hexamethylphosphoramide). They were characterized by 1H and 19F NMR and IR spectroscopy and examined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The complexation equilibrium of the barium ion in 1 with hmpa and the dynamics of the barium ion moving on the fluorine surfaces of [(C5Me5)2Ti2F7]- in 1.hmpa have been studied by variable-temperature 19F NMR spectroscopy. The core of the complex 2[I3]2.10(THF) resembles the basic structural unit of the cubic perovskite.     

Structural diversity in solvated lithium aryloxides. Syntheses, characterization, and structures of [Li(OAr)(THF)x]n and [Li(OAr)(py)x]2 complexes where OAr = OC6H5, OC6H4(2-Me), OC6H3(2,6-(Me))2, OC6H4(2-Pr(i)), OC6H3(2,6-Pr(i)))2, OC6h4(2-Bu(t)), OC6H3(2,6-Bu(t)))2

A series of sterically varied aryl alcohols H-OAr [OAr = OC6H5 (OPh), OC6H4(2-Me) (oMP), OC6H3(2,6-(Me))2 (DMP), OC6H4(2-Pr(i)) (oPP), OC6H3(2,6-(Pr(i)))2 (DIP), OC6H4(2-Bu(t)) (oBP), OC6H3(2,6-(Bu(t)))2 (DBP); Me = CH3, Pr(i) = CHMe2, and Bu(t) = CMe3] were reacted with LiN(SiMe3)2 in a Lewis basic solvent [tetrahydrofuran (THF) or pyridine (py)] to generate the appropriate "Li(OAr)(solv)x". In the presence of THF, the OPh derivative was previously identified as the hexagonal prismatic complex [Li(OPh)(THF)]6; however, the structure isolated from the above route proved to be the tetranuclear species [Li(OPh)(THF)]4 (1). The other "Li(OAr)(THF)x" products isolated were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction as [Li(OAr)(THF)]4 [OAr = oMP (2), DMP (3), oPP (4)], [Li(DIP)(THF)]3 (5), [Li(oBP)(THF)2]2, (6), and [Li(DBP)(THF)]2, (7). The tetranuclear species (1-4) consist of symmetric cubes of alternating tetrahedral Li and pyramidal O atoms, with terminal THF solvent molecules bound to each metal center. The trinuclear species 5 consists of a six-membered ring of alternating trigonal planar Li and bridging O atoms, with one THF solvent molecule bound to each metal center. Compound 6 possesses two Li atoms that adopt tetrahedral geometries involving two bridging oBP and two terminal THF ligands. The structure of 7 was identical to the previously reported [Li(DBP)(THF)]2 species, but different unit cell parameters were observed. Compound 7 varies from 6 in that only one solvent molecule is bound to each Li metal center of 7 because of the steric bulk of the DBP ligand. In contrast to the structurally diverse THF adducts, when py was used as the solvent, the appropriate "Li(OAr)(py)x" complexes were isolated as [Li(OAr)(py)2]2 (OAr = OPh (8), oMP (9), DMP (10), oPP (11), DIP (12), oBP (13)) and [Li(DBP)(py)]2 (14). Compounds 8-13 adopt a dinuclear, edge-shared tetrahedral complex. For 14, because of the steric crowding of the DBP ligand, only one py is coordinated, yielding a dinuclear fused trigonal planar arrangement. Two additional structure types were also characterized for the DIP ligand: [Li(DIP)(H-DIP)(py)]2 (12b) and [Li2(DIP)2(py)3] (12c). Multinuclear (6,7Li and 13C) solid-state MAS NMR spectroscopic studies indicate that the bulk powder possesses several Li environments for "transitional ligands" of the THF complexes; however, the py adducts possess only one Li environment, which is consistent with the solid-state structures. Solution NMR studies indicate that "transitional" compounds of the THF precursors display multiple species in solution whereas the py adducts display only one lithium environment.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Complex {[Co~(Ⅲ)L_2]·[Co~(Ⅱ)(H_2O)_6]_(0.5)·2.25H_2O}_4 (H_2L = N-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)salicylidenimine)

The reaction of Co(OAc)2·4H2O with the Schiff base H2L in a methanol solution affords the red crystals of {[CoIIIL2]·[CoII(H2O)6]0.5·2.25H2O}4 1 (H2L = N-(2-hydroxyphenyl) sali-cylidenimine). The molecular and crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal is of monoclinic, space group P21/n, C104H114Co6N8O37, Mr = 2421.61, a = 10.625(3), b = 16.335(4), c = 15.265(4) , β = 102.990(4)o, V = 2581.6(11) 3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.558 g/cm3, μ = 1.034 mm-1, F(000) = 1252, R = 0.0414 and wR = 0.1167 for 5889 reflections. The Co(III) atom is six-coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and four oxygen atoms of two tridentate L ligands. The abundant hydrogen bonding interactions extend the complex into a one-dimensional supra-molecular framework. The uncoordinated water molecules act as space-fillers and consolidate the whole architecture through the hydrogen bonding interactions.     

Substituted N-picolylethylenediamines of the type (ArNHCH2CH2){(2-C5H4N)CH2}NR [R = Me, 4-CH2=CH(C6H4)CH2, (2-C5H4N)CH2] and their transition metal(II) halide complexes

Alkylation of (ArNHCH2CH2){(2-C5H4N)CH2}NH with RX [RX = MeI, 4-CH2=CH(C6H4)CH2Cl) and (2-C5H5N)CH2Cl] in the presence of base has allowed access to the sterically demanding multidentate nitrogen donor ligands, {(2,4,6-Me3C6H2)NHCH2CH2}{(2-C5H4N)CH2}NMe (L1), {(2,6-Me3C6H3)NHCH2CH2}{(2-C5H4N)CH2}NCH2(C6H4)-4-CH=CH2 (L2) and (ArNHCH2CH2){(2-C5H4N)CH2}2N (Ar = 2,4-Me2C6H3 L3a, 2,6-Me2C6H3 L3b) in moderate yield. L3 can also be prepared in higher yield by the reaction of (NH2CH2CH2){(2-C5H4N)CH2}2N with the corresponding aryl bromide in the presence of base and a palladium(0) catalyst. Treatment of L1 or L2 with MCl2 [MCl2 = CoCl2.6H2O or FeCl2(THF)1.5] in THF affords the high spin complexes [(L1)MCl2](M = Co 1a, Fe 1b) and [(L2)MCl2](M = Co 2a, Fe 2b) in good yield, respectively; the molecular structure of reveals a five-coordinate metal centre with bound in a facial fashion. The six-coordinate complexes, [(L3a)MCl2](M = Co 3a, Fe 3b, Mn 3c) are accessible on treatment of tripodal L3a with MCl2. In contrast, the reaction with the more sterically encumbered leads to the pseudo-five-coordinate species [(L3b)MCl2](M = Co 4a, Fe 4b) and, in the case of manganese, dimeric [(L3b)MnCl(mu-Cl)]2 (4c); in 4a and 4b the aryl-substituted amine arm forms a partial interaction with the metal centre while in 4c the arm is pendant. The single crystal X-ray structures of , 1a, 3b.MeCN, 3c.MeCN, 4b.MeCN and 4c are described as are the solution state properties of 3b and 4b.     

Synthesis and x-ray crystal structure of [(THF)Zn(O(2)(OH)SiR)](4) (R = (2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3))N(SiMe(3))): enroute to larger aggregates

Reaction of aminosilanetriol RSi(OH)(3) (1) (R = (2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3))N(SiMe(3))) with diethyl zinc at room temperature in 1:1 stoichiometric ratio affords [(THF)Zn(O(2)(OH)SiR)](4) (2) (R = (2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3))N(SiMe(3))) in good yield. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies reveal that 2 is monoclinic, P2(1), with a = 17.117(3) A, b = 16.692(5) A, c = 17.399(4) A, alpha = gamma = 90 degrees, beta = 91.45(7) degrees, and Z = 2. The molecular structure of 2 contains two puckered eight-membered Zn(2)Si(2)O(4) rings, which are connected by the Zn-O bonds and form two planar four-membered Zn(2)O(2) rings. Compound 2 contains an unreacted hydroxyl group on each silicon atom, and hence, we carried out the reactions of 2 with dimethylzinc and methyllithium to form [Zn(4)(THF)(4)(MeZn)(4)(O(3)SiR)(4)] (3) (R = (2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3))N(SiMe(3))) and [(L)ZnLi(O(3)SiR)](4) (4) (L = 1,4-(Me(2)N)(2)C(6)H(4), R = (2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3))N(SiMe(3))), respectively. This suggested that 2 could be an intermediate product formed during the synthesis of 3 and 4.

The structure was solved by heavy-atom method and Fourier techniques and refined by least-squares to a final R=0. 051 ,Rw = 0. 049 for 839 reflections with I≥1. 5σ (I). The results revealed that the bond length of Gd-C is 2. 437(22) A ,the average bond lengths of Gd-Cl 2. 678(6) A ,Gd-O 2. 499(12) A, C-C from phenyl group 1. 376(40)A. This crystal structure is the first organolanthanide complex with only one Ln-C bond in the molecule.     

Hypervalent organobismuth(iii) carbonate, chalcogenides and halides with the pendant arm ligands 2-(Me2NCH2)C6H4 and 2,6-(Me2NCH2)2C6H3

R2BiOH (1) [R = 2-(Me2NCH2)C6H4] and (R2Bi)2O (2) are formed by hydrolysis of R2BiCl with KOH. Single crystals of were obtained by air oxidation of (R2Bi)2. The reaction of R2BiCl and Na2CO3 leads to (R2Bi)2CO3 (3). 3 is also formed by the absorption of CO2 from the air in solutions of 1 or 2 in diethyl ether or toluene. (R2Bi)2S (4) is obtained from R2BiCl and Na2S or from (R2Bi)2 and S8. Exchange reactions between R2BiCl and KBr or NaI give R2BiX [X = Br (5), I (6)]. The reaction of RBiCl2 (7) with Na2S and [W(CO)5(THF)] gives cyclo-(RBiS)2[W(CO)5]2 (8). cyclo-(R'BiS)2 (9) [R' = 2,6-(Me2NCH2)2C6H3] is formed by reaction of R'BiCl2 and Na2S. The structures of were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Chloro(p-toluidine)[4-(p-tolyl)imino-2-pentanone-3-oximato]- palladium(Ⅱ), PdCl(p-CH_3C_6H_4NH_2)(p-CH_3C_6H_4-iai)

1 INTRODUCTION Transition metal complexes of N-R-isonitroso- b-ketoimine have received considerable interest, because the isonitroso (oximo) group can coordinate to metal atoms through its oxygen and/or nitrogen atoms to form several geometrical isomers[1～4]. Some palladium(Ⅱ) complexes with N-R-isonitro- soacetylacetoneimine (abbreviated to R-Hiai)[4] and N-R-isonitrosoethylacetoacetate (abbreviated to R- Hieai)[5] have been reported. Here we will report the structure of a palladi…     

Characterization of the sterically encumbered terphenyl-substituted species 2,6-Trip2H3C6Sn-Sn(Me)2C6H3-2,6-Trip2, an unsymmetric, group 14 element, methylmethylene, valence isomer of an alkene, its related lithium derivative 2,6-Trip2H3C6(Me)2Sn-Sn(Li)(Me)C6H3-2,6-Trip2, and the monomer Sn(t-Bu)C6H3-2,6-Trip2 (Trip = C6H2-2,4,6-i-Pr3)

The reaction of the recently reported sterically encumbered terphenyl tin(II) halide species Sn(Cl)C6H3-2,6-Trip2 (Trip = C6H2-2,4,6-i-Pr3), 1, with 1 equiv of MeLi or MeMgBr afforded 2,6-Trip2H3C6Sn-Sn(Me)2C6H3-2,6-Trip2, 2, which is the first stable group 14 element methylmethylene (i.e., CH3CH) analogue of ethylene (H2CCH2). Reaction of 1 with 1.5 equiv of MeLi yielded the stannylstannate species 2,6-Trip2H3C6(Me)2Sn-Sn(Li)(Me)-C6H3-2,6-Trip2, 3, whereas reaction of 1 with 1 equiv of t-BuLi gave the heteroleptic stannanediyl monomer Sn(t-Bu)C6H3-2,6-Trip2 (4). The compounds 2-4 were characterized by 1H, 13C (7Li, 3 only), and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy in solution and by UV-vis spectroscopy. The X-ray crystal structures of 2-4 were also determined. The formation of the stannylstannanediyl 2 instead of the expected symmetrical, valence isomer "distannene" form (Sn(Me)C6H3-2,6-Trip2)2, 6, is explained through the ready formation of LiSn(Me)2C6H3-2,6-Trip2, 5, which reacts rapidly with 1 to produce 2 which can then react with a further equivalent of MeLi to give 3. The stability of singly bonded 2 in relation to the formally doubly bonded 6 was rationalized on the basis of the difference in the strength of their tin-tin bonds. In contrast to the methyl derivatives, the reaction of 1 with t-BuLi proceeded smoothly to give the monomeric compound 4. Apparently, the formation of a t-Bu analogue of 5 was prevented by the more crowding t-Bu group. Compound 2 is also the first example of a stable molecule with bonding between a two-coordinate, bivalent tin and four-coordinate tetravalent tin. Both compounds 2 and 3 display large J 119Sn-119Sn couplings between their tin nuclei and the tin-tin bond lengths in 2 (2.8909(2) A) and 3 (2.8508(4) A) are relatively normal despite the presence of the sterically crowding terphenyl substituents.     

Synthesis and Structure Characterization of N-Phenyl-（2S）-hydroxy-3-[（2-hydroxybenzylidene）amino]propionamide

1 INTRODUCTION Schiff bases can be conveniently prepared from the corresponding aldehyde and primary amine, which, as multidentate ligands, have already received great attention. Many metal complexes of this kind of ligands have been used successfully in various re- actions, such as Diels-Alder and hetero-Diels-Alder reactions[1], kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides[2], and Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi (NHK) reaction[3].
