Quantum Mechanical Study of Substituent Dependence on the Structure,Spectroscopic (13C, 1H NMR and UV), NBO,Hyperpolarizability and HOMO?LUMO Analysis of Ru(NHC)2Cl2(CH‐p‐C6H4X) Complexes

In this work, we have explored the structural, electronic properties, ¹³C and ¹H NMR parameters and first hyperpolarizability of Ru(NHC)₂Cl₂(CH‐p‐C₆H₄X) complexes (XH, F, Cl, Me, NH₂, OH, CN, NO₂, CHO, COOH) by mpw1pw91 quantum method. The X‐substituent effect on structural parameters, frontier orbital energies, spectroscopic (¹H and ¹³C NMR, UV) of complex was carried out. The results indicate that the substituent has played a significant role on the structures and properties of complex. ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts were calculated by using the gauge‐invariant atomic orbital (GIAO) method. Total and partial density of state (TDOS and PDOS) and also overlap population density of state (OPDOS) diagrams analysis were exhibited. In analyzing the bonding characteristics of this structure, Ru‐C_carbene and Ru‐C_NHC bonds were identified and characterized in details by Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis.     

UV–vis,IR and 1H NMR spectroscopic studies and characterization of ionic-pair crystal violet–oxytetracycline

The present study shows the formation and characterization of the ionic-pair between the antibiotic oxytetracycline and the dye crystal violet in ammonia solution pH 9.0 ± 0.2 extracted into chloroform. The characterization was demonstrated using UV–vis spectrophotometry, ¹H NMR, measurement of relaxation times T₁ and IR spectroscopy, using a comparison between the signals of individual pure compounds with the signals with the mixture CV–OTC in different alkaline media. The formation of ionic-pair was also corroborated by new signals and chemical shifts. (2D) NMR spectroscopy experiments show that the interaction is electrostatic.

Synthesis and H NMR spectroscopic properties of substituted (η-tetraarylcyclobutadiene)(η-cyclopentadienyl)cobalt metallocenes

The reaction of diarylacetylenes with CoCl(PPh₃)₃ and sodium cyclopentadienylide or sodium carbomethoxycyclopentadienylide gave (η⁴-tetra-arylcyclobutadiene)(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)cobalt and (η⁴-tetra-arylcyclobutadiene)(η⁵-carbomethoxycyclopentadienyl)cobalt, respectively, where aryl = para-XC₆H₄ (X = CF₃, F, MeO). The reaction was unsuccessful for the synthesis of (η⁴-tetra(para-methoxyphenyl)cyclobutadiene)(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)cobalt, which was synthesised instead from dicarbonyl(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)cobalt. In all of the examples starting with CoCl(PPh₃)₃ an intermediate (η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)- or (η⁵-carbomethoxycyclopentadienyl)(triphenylphosphine)-2,3,4,5-tetraarylcobaltacyclopentadiene complex was isolated, and two examples were characterised by X-ray crystallography. Heating the (η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)- or (η⁵-carbomethoxycyclopentadienyl)(triphenylphosphine)-2,3,4,5-tetraarylcobaltacyclopentadiene complexes resulted in clean conversion to the corresponding metallocenes. The influence of the para-aryl substituents on the ¹H NMR of the cyclopentadienyl moiety is tabulated, together with the influence of a range of R substituents in (η⁴-tetraphenylcyclobutadiene)(η⁵-RC₅H₄)cobalt (R = CO₂Me, CH₂OH, Me, CHO, CCH, CO₂H, CN, CONHR¹, 2-oxazolinyl, NH₂, NHAc, HgCl, Br, I, SiMe₃, SnMe₃, Ph).

Synthesis of (NHC)Rh(cod)Cl and (NHC)RhCl(CO)2 complexes – Translation of the Rh- into the Ir-scale for the electronic properties of NHC ligands

Twenty-three different Rh complexes of the (NHC)RhCl(cod) and (NHC)RhCl(CO)₂ type were synthesized from [RhCl(cod)]₂. The electron donating nature of the NHC ligands was changed in a systematic manner. The redox potentials of the various (NHC)RhCl(cod) and the ν(CO) of the various (NHC)RhCl(CO)₂ were determined. A correlation of the Rh redox potentials and the Rh ν(CO), respectively, with the related data from analogous (NHC)IrCl(cod) and (NHC)IrCl(CO)₂ complexes established two linear relationships. The linear regression (R² = 0.993) of the Rh and the Ir redox potentials results in an equation for the redox potential transformation: E_1/2(Ir) = 1.016 · E_1/2(Rh) ? 0.076 V. The linear regression (R² = 0.97) of the Rh and Ir ν_av(CO) results in an equation for the ν_av(CO) transformation: ν_av(CO)Ir = 0.8695 · ν_av(CO)Rh + 250.7 cm^?1. In this manner the Rh and the Ir-scale for the determination of the electron donating properties of NHC ligands are unified.

Conformational stability, the spectroscopic (FT-IR and UV), first order hyperpolarizability, NBO analysis, HOMO and LUMO analysis of 6,8-diphenylimidazo[1,2-α]pyrazine molecule by ab initio HF and density functional methods

The conformational analysis of 6,8-diphenylimidazo[1,2-α]pyrazine molecule (abbreviated as 68DIP) was performed by using B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory to find the most stable form. Two staggered stable conformers were observed on the torsional potential energy surface. The equilibrium geometry, bonding features and vibrational frequencies of 68DIP have been investigated by using the DFT (B3LYP) and HF methods for the lowest energy conformer. The first order hyperpolarizability (β(total)) of this molecular system and related properties (β, μ, <α> and Δα) are calculated using HF/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) methods based on the finite-field approach. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions, charge delocalization and C-H?N intramolecular hydrogen-bond-like weak interaction has been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis by using B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) method. The results show that electron density (ED) in the σ* and π* antibonding orbitals and second order delocalization energies E((2)) confirm the occurrence of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) within the molecule.

Synthesis, crystal structure, spectroscopic, magnetic, theoretical, and microbiological studies of a nickel(II) complex of L-tyrosine and imidazole, [Ni(Im)2(L-tyr)2]·4H2O

The [Ni(Im)(2)(L-tyr)(2)]·4H(2)O (1) complex was obtained in crystalline form as a product of interaction of L-tyrosine sodium salt, imidazole, and NiSO(4). The X-ray structure was determined, and the spectral (IR, FIR, NIR-vis-UV, HF EPR) and magnetic properties were studied. The Ni(2+) ion is hexacoordinated by the N and O atoms from two L-tyrosine molecules and by two N atoms of imidazole, resulting in a slightly distorted octahedral [NiN(2)N(2)'O(2)] geometry with a tetragonality parameter T = 0.995.

Structures, energies, bonding, and NMR properties of pnicogen complexes H2XP:NXH2 (X ═ H, CH3, NH2, OH, F, Cl)

Ab initio calculations have been carried out in a systematic investigation of P···N pnicogen complexes H(2)XP:NXH(2) for X ═ H, CH(3), NH(2), OH, F, and Cl, as well as selected complexes with different substituents X bonded to P and N. Binding energies for complexes H(2)XP:NXH(2) range from 8 to 27 kJ mol(-1) and increase to 39 kJ mol(-1) for H(2)FP:N(CH(3))H(2). Equilibrium structures have a nearly linear A-P-N arrangement, with A being the atom directly bonded to P. Binding energies correlate with intermolecular N-P distances as well as with bonding parameters obtained from AIM and SAPT analyses. Complexation increases (31)P chemical shieldings in complexes with binding energies greater than 19 kJ mol(-1). One-bond spin-spin coupling constants (1p)J(N-P) across the pnicogen interaction exhibit a quadratic dependence on the N-P distance for complexes H(2)XP:NXH(2), similar to the dependence of (2h)J(X-Y) on the X-Y distance for complexes with X-H···Y hydrogen bonds. However, when the mixed complexes H(2)XP:NX'H(2) are included, the curvature of the trendline changes and the good correlation between (1p)J(N-P) and the N-P distance is lost.

Summary Ethylenediaminecopper(II) perchlorate complexes of the [Cu(ethylenediamine)L₂(ClO₄)₂] type, where L = imidazole, N-methylimidazole, 2-methylimidazole, 4-methylimidazole, and pyridine, have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, and electronic, vibrational, and e.p.r. spectroscopic measurements. The molecular structure of [Cu(ethylenediamine)(pyridine)₂(ClO₄)₂] has been determined by three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The Cu^II ion is coordinated by one ethylenediamine and two pyridine ligands forming an equatorial plane, and by two perchlorate anions located on the z axis. The pyridine ligands incline at 54.9 ° to the CuN₄ plane suggesting virtually no -interaction in the complex. Similar structures with a CuN₄ coordination plane are proposed for other complexes based on the spectroscopic data. The bonding properties of these complexes are elucidated and discussed with reference to the electronic structures deduced from Gaussian analyses of their LF spectra.
