β-diketone complexes of manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and palladium(II)

Summary The reactions of manganese(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) acetates (1 mole) with antipyrine-4-azo--ethylcyanoacetate (HL¹) and antipyrine-4-azo--acetylacetone (HL²) (1 mole) produce complexes of the M(L)₂ type. K₂PdCl₄ (1 mole) reacts with HL¹ and HL² (1 mole) to yield complexes of the general formula PdLCl, the ligands behaving as monobasic tridentates. The electronic spectral and magnetic data show the complexes to be high-spin octahedral, whereas the palladium(II) complexes are diamagnetic square planar. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, conductance measurements and i.r. and electronic spectra as well as magnetic susceptibility measurements and thermal (t.g.a. and d.t.a.) analysis.Nuclear Material Authority.     

Complexes of N-nicotinoyl-N′-2-furanthiocarbohydrazide with oxovanadium(IV), manganese(II), iron(II & III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II)

A new potential tetradentate ligand, N-nicotinoyl-N-2-furanthiocarbohydrazide (H₂Nfth), and its complexes with VO^IV, Mn^II, Fe^II,III, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, u.v.–vis, i.r., n.m.r., ES⁺ and FAB mass spectral data. The room temperature e.s.r spectra of the VO^IV and Fe^III complexes yield g values, characteristic of octahedral complexes. The Mössbauer spectra of [Fe(HNfth)₂] and [Fe₂(Nfth)₃] at room temperature and at 78 K suggest the presence of high-spin iron(II) and iron(III), respectively. The complexes are electrically insulating at room temperature, however, their conductivities increase as the temperature increases from 333–383 K, with a band gap of 0.46–0.77 eV, indicating their semiconducting behaviour. H₂Nfth and its soluble complexes have been screened against several bacteria and fungi.     

Thermodynamics of Copper(II), Zinc(II), Cobalt(II), Mercury(II), and Nickel(II) Complexation with α,α-Dipyrrolylmethene in DMF

Thermodynamics of complexation reactions between Zn(II), Ni(II), Hg(II), Co(II), and Cu(II) acetates and 3,35,5-tetramethyl-4,4-dibutyldipyrrolylmethene in DMF at 298.15 K is studied by calorimetric and spectrophotometric methods. The replacement of Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Hg²⁺ ions by Co²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions was found to increase the equilibrium constants of reactions of complex formation with dipyrrolylmethene by more than two orders of magnitude. The role of solvation interactions in coordination of dipyrrolylmethene by d-metal ions is established.     

Copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes of substituted β-hydroxyiminoanilides

Complexes of the general formula, ML₂ [M = Cu^II, Ni^II, Co^II and OV^IV; L = 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-hydroxyimino-N-(4-X-phenyl)-l-phenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide (X = H, Me, OMe, Cl)] have been prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, magnetic moments and i.r., e.p.r. and electronic spectra. These metal complexes contain the N₄ chromophore with the ligand coordinating through nitrogens of the azomethine and deprotonated anilide functions. C.v. measurements indicate that the copper(II) complexes are quasi-reversible in acetonitrile solution. Square planar and square pyramidal structures are assigned respectively to the copper(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes, whereas tetrahedral geometry is assigned to the nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes. Deprotonated anilide nitrogen is involved in coordination and the presence of an electron-donating group para to the anilide function decreases the ΔE values of the d–d transitions while the value is found to increase when electron-withdrawing groups are substituted. Line spacing in the e.p.r. spectra of the copper(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes increases when methyl group is para to the anilide group, and decreases when this group is replaced by methoxy or chloro. The ν(C–N) of the anilide group and the ν(C-N) of the azomethine function of the oxime metal complexes are metal-sensitive and the blue shift for the above stretching frequencies follows the order: copper(II) > oxovanadium(IV) > nickel(II) ≈ cobalt(II).

Aqueous Equilibrium and Solution Structural Studies of the Interaction of N,N′-bis(4-imidazolymethyl)etylenediamine with Ca(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Mg(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) Metal Ions

Divalent metal complexes of N,N′-bis(4-imidazolymethyl)etylenediamine (EMI) have been studied using potentiometric and spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis and NMR methods) in aqueous 0.1 mol⋅L⁻¹ KCl supporting electrolyte at 25 °C. Final models and overall stability constants for the complexes of Ca(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Mg(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) have been established by potentiometry for all M(II)–EMI systems, except for Co(II)–EMI. The data revealed that EMI forms ML complexes with all M(II)–EMI systems, which is the dominant species over a wide range of pH except for the Ca(II)–EMI and Mg(II)–EMI systems. Formation of the MnHL complex was also found for Mn(II)–EMI solutions. In addition, the UV-Vis and ¹H NMR results allowed us establish the coordination modes for the metal complexes between EMI with Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II).     

X-ray study of volatile Ni(II), Cu(II), and Pd(II) complexes of β-ketoimine pivalyltrifluoroacetone

Synthesis of volatile complexes based on -ketoimine pivalyltrifluoroacetone, C(CH₃)₃C(NH)CH₂COCF₃, is described. The general formula of the complexes is M(L)₂, where M = Cu, Ni, Pd. Complexes of this kind with Ni and Pd were obtained for the first time. The Cu and Pd complexes were found to be isostructural. A comprehensive crystal-chemical study showed that all structures are molecular and built of trans-complexes. The central atom has a square plane environment. The average M-O and M-N distances are nearly equal in all compounds: 1.84 , 1.92 , and 1.98 for Ni, Cu, and Pd complexes, respectively; the mean values of the O-M-N chelate angles are 93.4°, 91.9°, and 92.7°, respectively.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by I.

Complexes of N-phenyl-N′-2-furanthiocarbohydrazide with oxovanadium(IV), manganese(III), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II)

A new ligand, N-phenyl-N -2-furanthiocarbohydrazide (HPhfth), and its complexes with VO^IV, Mn^III, Fe^III, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, i.r., n.m.r., u.v.–vis., mass and FAB mass spectral data. The room temperature e.s.r. spectra of the VO^IV, Fe^III and Cu^II complexes yield <g> values characteristic of square pyramidal VO^IV, octahedral Fe^III and square planar Cu^II, respectively. The Ni^II and Cu^II complexes semiconduct, but the Zn^II complex is an insulator at room temperature. However, the conductivity increases as the temperature increases from 303–383 K, with a band gap of 0.21–1.01 eV. HPhfth and its soluble complexes have been screened against several bacteria and fungi.     

Complex formation of Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Co(II), and Cd(II) acetates with 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-hexamethyldipyrrolylmethene

The reactions of complex formation of Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II) acetates with 3,3′,4,4′5,5′-hexamethyl-2,2′-dipyrrolylmethene (HL) in DMF were studied by the electronic spectroscopy and calorimetric titration methods at 298.15 K. The main products of the above reactions are [ML₂] chelates. In the case of Cu and Ni salts, the process occurs through the spectrally recorded stage of formation of the heteroligand [ML(AcO)] complexes. The reaction with Cd acetate terminates at the stage of the heteroligand complex formation due to the large radius and decreasing electron affinity of the Cd²⁺ ion. The effect of the metal nature appears in the increasing thermodynamic stability of single-type complexes in the series [ML₂]: Ni(II) < Zn(II) < Co(II) < Cu(II) and [ML(AcO)]: Cd(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II).     

Microwave assisted synthesis and characterization of N,N′-bis(salicylaldehydo)ethylenediimine complexes of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II)

Microwave chemistry is a green chemical method that improves reaction conditions and product yields while reducing solvent amounts and reaction times. The main aim of this article is to synthesize the tetradentate N₂O₂ ligand [HO(Ar)CH=N–(CH₂)₂–N=CH(Ar)OH] and manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), and zinc(II) complexes of the type ML by classical and microwave techniques. The resulting Schiff base and its complexes are characterized by ¹H NMR, infrared, elemental analysis, and electronic spectral data. The ligand and its Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes were further identified by X-ray diffraction and mass spectra to confirm the structure. The results suggest that the metal is bonded to the ligand through the phenolic oxygen and the imino nitrogen.

Antimicrobial studies of N - N ′-dicarboxydiethyloxamide and its Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes

Neutral complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) have been synthesized from the oxamide-based ligand derived from leucine and diethyloxalate. The structural features have been deduced from their microanalytical, IR, UV/Vis, mass, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data. The Co(II) and Ni(II) chelates have octahedral geometries and the Cu(II) chelate is a square-pyramidal geometry. The non-electrolytic and monomeric nature of the complexes is shown by their magnetic susceptibility and low conductance data. The biological activities of the ligand and its metal chelates against gram-positive and negative bacteria and fungi are also reported. All the compounds are antimicrobially active and show higher activity than the free ligand.     

Hydrogen-bonded networks based on manganese(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of N,N′-dimethylurea

A project related to the crystal engineering of hydrogen-bonded coordination complexes has been initiatied and some of our first results are presented here. The compounds [Mn(DMU)₆](ClO₄)₂ (1), [Ni(DMU)₆](ClO₄)₂ (2), [Cu(OClO₃)₂(DMU)₄] (3) and [Zn(DMU)₆](ClO₄)₂ (4) have all been prepared from the reaction of N,N-dimethylurea (DMU) and the appropriate hydrated metal perchlorate salt. Crystal structure determinations of the four compounds demonstrate the existence of [M(DMU)₆]²⁺ cations and ClO₄ ^– counterions in (1), (2) and (4), whereas in (3) monodentate coordination of the perchlorate groups leads to molecules. The [M(DMU)₆]²⁺ cations and ClO₄ ^– anions self-assemble to form a hydrogen-bonded one-dimensional (1D) architecture in (1) and different 2D hydrogen-bonded networks in (2) and (4). The hydrogen bonding functionalities on the molecules of (3) create a 2D structure. The complexes were also characterised by room-temperature effective magnetic moments and i.r. studies. The data are discussed in terms of the nature of bonding and the known structures.
