Synthesis and characterization of CuII and CoII complexes derived from 2,4,6-tri-(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TPT) by chemical and tribochemical reactions

Four Cu^II and Co^II complexes–[Cu(L₁)Cl₂(H₂O)]3/2H₂O · 1/2EtOH, [Cu(L₁)₂Cl₂]6H₂O, [Co(L₁)Cl₂]3H₂O · EtOH, and [Co₂(L₁)(H₂O)Cl₄]1.5H₂O · EtOH (L₁ = 2,4,6-tri(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine; TPT)–were synthesized by conventional chemical method and used to synthesize another four metal complexes–[Cu(L₁)I₂(H₂O)]6H₂O, [Cu(L₁)₂I₂]6H₂O, [Co(L₁)I(H₂O)₂]I · 2H₂O, and [Co₂(L₁)I₄(H₂O)₃]–using tribochemical reaction, by grinding it with KI. Substitution of chloride by iodide occurred, but no reduction for Cu^II or oxidation of Co^II. Oxidation of Co^II to Co^III complexes was only observed on the dissolution of Co^II complexes in d₆-DMSO in air while warming. The isolated solid complexes (Cu^II and Co^II) have been characterized by elemental analyses, conductivities, spectral (IR, UV-Vis, ¹H-NMR), thermal measurements (TGA), and magnetic measurements. The values of molar conductivities suggest non-electrolytes in DMF. The metal complexes are paramagnetic. IR spectra indicate that TPT is tridentate coordinating via the two pyridyl nitrogens and one triazine nitrogen forming two five-membered rings around the metal in M : L complexes and bidentate via one triazine nitrogen and one pyridyl nitrogen in ML₂ complexes. In binuclear complexes, L is tridentate toward one Co^II and bidentate toward the second Co^II in [Co₂(L₁)Cl₄]2.5H₂O · EtOH and [Co₂(L₁)I₄(H₂O)₃]. Electronic spectra and magnetic measurements suggest a distorted-octahedral around Cu^II and high-spin octahedral and square-pyramidal geometry around Co^II.     

Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) Complexation with Isatin Aminoguanisone and Nitroaminoguanisone

New complexes of bivalent Co, Ni, and Cu with isatin aminoguanisone (HL) and nitroaminoguanisone (HL¹) of the composition ([Co(HL)₂]Cl₂ (I), [Ni(HL)₂]Cl₂ (II), [Cu(L)Cl] (III), [Co(L¹)₂] (IV), [Ni(L¹)₂] (V), and [Cu(L¹)₂] (VI) are synthesized. Their molecular conductivities and effective magnetic moments are measured and thermal stabilities are studied. The type of the ligand coordination in I–VI is proposed on the basis of IR data. The summary of physicochemical data for I–VI and the energy calculations for their molecules by the molecular mechanics method made it possible to establish stoichiometry of the coordination polyhedra of the complexes.

The coordination polygon PdNCl₃ is a distorted square (trapezium) made up of the pyrazole N atom of the monodentate ligand (cation HL⁺) and three Cl atoms. Complex II seems to contain the square polygon PdN₂Cl₂.

Complexes 1–3 display similar layers structures. In 1–3, the adjacent layers are further connected through π···π interactions to form three-dimensional supramolecular structures. Complexes 4 and 5 show a dimer containing an eight-membered ring. The dimer extends into three-dimensional supramolecular structures through π···π interactions, C–H···F and C–H···Cl interactions.

Two new co-ordination compounds of Pd^II with 1-vinylimidazole of the formulae [PdL₄]Cl₂·3H₂O and trans-[PdL₂Cl₂], where L is a 1-vinylimidazole molecule, have been obtained. The compounds were characterised by spectroscopic, molar conductivity, thermogravimetric and magnetochemical measurements. Single crystal X-ray structure analyses of the complexes were also carried out. The compounds are diamagnetic with square-planar coordinatination around the palladium(II) ions. Other physico-chemical properties of the both complexes are compatible with their structures.     

Synthesis and structural characterization of mono- and dinuclear NiII and PdII complexes derived from tetradentate 1,7-bis-(pyridin-2-yl)-2,6-diaza-1,6-heptadiene

The reaction of Schiff base 1,7-bis-(pyridin-2-yl)-2,6-diaza-1,6-heptadiene (L) with either NiCl₂·6H₂O or [Pd^IICl₂(CH₃CN)₂]/Na[BF₄] in 1?:?1 stoichiometry yielded mononuclear ionic complexes, trans-[Ni^II(L)(H₂O)₂]Cl₂·3H₂O (1·3H₂O) and [Pd^II(L)][BF₄]₂ (2), respectively; the reaction of L with [Pd^IICl₂(CH₃CN)₂] in 1?:?2 ratio yielded dinuclear cis-[Pd^II ₂(μ-L)Cl₄] (3). Complexes 1–3 were characterized by vibrational spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction; diamagnetic 2 and 3 were also characterized by NMR in solution. The molecular structures of 1 and 2 displayed tetradentate coordination of L with formation of two five-membered and one six-membered chelate rings for both complexes. In 3, L showed bidentate coordination mode for each pyridylimine toward Pd^II. Complex 1 has distorted octahedral geometry around Ni^II and an extended hydrogen-bond network; distorted square planar geometry around Pd^II in 2 and 3 was observed.     

Effect of structural features of molecules (Cl<Subscript>3</Subscript>PNZ)<Subscript>2</Subscript> (Z = CH<Subscript>3</Subscript> and CH<Subscript>2</Subscript>CH<Subscript>2</Subscript>Cl) on the position exchange of chlorine atoms in the P-Cl fragments

Based on the analysis of structural parameters of molecules (Cl₃PNCH₃)₂ (I) and (Cl₃PNCH₂CH₂Cl)₂ (II) by the quantum-chemical nonempirical calculations the following was revealed. The structure of I and II dimers has geometric features, which have a decisive influence on the degree of inhibition of positional exchange of the chlorine atoms in the P-Cl fragments known for the chlorine derivatives of pentacoordinated phosphorus atom. The obstacles to this dynamic process in the mentioned intramolecular dimers is shown to result from the spatial nonvalent interactions due to the short contacts of the chlorine and hydrogen atoms.

Three new Cd(II) complexes consisting of phenanthroline derivative and organic acid ligands, formulated as [Cd₃(3-PIP)₂(L¹)₆] (I), [Cd(3-PIP)(L²)] · H₂O (II), and [Cd(3-PIP)(L³)] (III) (3-PIP = 2-(3-pyridyl)imidazo[4,5-f]-1,10-phenanthroline, HL¹ = 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid, H₂L² = oxalic acid, H₂L³ = benzene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid), have been synthesized via the hydrothermal reaction and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analyses and FT-IR spectra. Complex I is a trinuclear structure. Complex II features a 1D zigzag chain. Complex III shows a twisted double chain of binuclear units sustained by double carboxylate bridges. Three complexes are further extended into 3D supramolecular frameworks by hydrogen bonding and π-π-stacking interactions. The structural differences among I–III show that the organic carboxylates have important effects on the structures. Furthermore, the supramolecular interactions are the critical factors in determining the final structures of the complexes. In addition, the thermal stabilities and luminescent properties of complexes I and II are also investigated.

Syntheses,characterization and anti‐microbial activities of palladium(II) and palladium(IV) complexes of 3,10‐C‐meso‐Me8[14]diene (L1) and its reduced isomeric anes (LA,LB and LC). Crystal and molecular structure of [PdL1][Pd(SCN)4]

The reactions of 3,10‐C‐meso‐3,5,7,7,10,12,14,14‐octamethyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclotetradecadiene, L¹, and two isomers (L_B and L_C, differing in the orientation of methyl groups on the chiral carbon atoms) of its reduced form with PdCl₂ and K₂[Pd(SCN)₄], produce square‐planar tetrachloro‐ and tetrathiocyano‐palladium(II) complexes of general formulae [PdL′][PdCl₄] and [PdL′][Pd(SCN)₄] (L′ = L¹, L_B and L_C), respectively. By contrast, the third ane isomer, L_A, upon reaction with the same reagents, PdCl₂ and K₂[Pd(SCN)₄], formed octahedral tetrachloro‐ and tetrathiocyanato‐palladium(IV) complexes [PdL_ACl₂]Cl₂ and [PdL_A(SCN)₂](SCN)₂, respectively. The [PdL′][PdCl₄] and [PdL_ACl₂]Cl₂ complexes undergo substitution reactions with KSCN to form square‐planar and octahedral tetrathiocyanato complexes [PdL′][Pd(SCN)₄] and [PdL_A(SCN)₂](SCN)₂, respectively. All complexes have been characterized on the basis of analytical, spectroscopic, conductometric and magnetochemical data. The anti‐fungal and anti‐bacterial activities of these complexes have been studied against some phytopathogenic fungi and bacteria. The crystal structure of [PdL¹][Pd(SCN)₄] has been confirmed by X‐ray crystallography and shows with square‐planar PdN₄ and PdS₄ geometries [monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 17.884(3) Å, b = 14.734(2) Å, c = 11.4313(18) Å, β = 104.054(5)° ].

On the complexes of yttrium chloride with carbamide and acetamide

Data on the synthesis and the IR spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction analyses of new complexes of yttrium chloride with carbamide (Ur), [Y(Ur)₄(H₂O)₄]Cl₃ (I) and [Y(Ur)₆(H₂O)₂]Cl₃ (II), and with acetamide (AA), [Y(AA)₅(H₂O)₂]Cl₃ (III), are presented. The coordination of the ligands occurs through the oxygen atoms. For complexes I and II, the coordination polyhedra of the Y atoms are distorted tetragonal antiprisms. For structure III, the coordination polyhedron of the Y atom is a distorted pentagonal bipyramid. The coordination of four Ur molecules in complex I does not change their planar structure, and two Ur molecules in structure II have the dihedral angle N-C(O)-N different from 180°. The chloride ions are in the external sphere. Many hydrogen bonds are observed in the structures of complexes I–III.     

Thermal, spectral, electrochemical and biologic characterization of new Pd(II) complexes with ligands bearing biguanide moieties

New complexes [Pd(HDMBG)₂]Cl₂·H₂O, [PdL¹]Cl₂·0.5H₂O and [PdL²]Cl₂·1.5H₂O (HDMBG: dimethylbiguanide, L¹ and L²: ligands resulted from HDMBG, ammonia/hydrazine and formaldehyde template condensation) were synthesized and characterized. The features of complexes have been assigned from microanalytical, IR, UV–Vis and cyclic voltammetry data. The thermal transformations are complex processes according to TG and DTA curves including water and hydrochloric acid elimination, thermolysis processes leading to paracyanide formation as well as PdO decomposition, final product being palladium. Complexes were screened for their antimicrobial properties against some pathogenic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial as well as fungal Candida albicans strains. The complexes exhibit specific antibacterial and/or antifungal activity, depending on their structure and the tested microbial strains. All complexes inhibit the microbial biofilm development on the inert substratum. It was also observed that PdCl₂ complexation minimized their cytotoxic effect on the eukaryotic cells.     

Influence of structural variation of salamo‐based ligand on supramolecular architectures,Hirshfeld analyses,and fluorescence properties of new tetranuclear NiII complexes

Two new tetranuclear Ni^II complexes, [Ni₄(L¹)₂(N₃)₄(MeOH)₂]·CH₃COCH₃ (1) and [Ni₄(L²)₂(N₃)₄(MeOH)₂]·4CH₃COCH₃ (2) , were synthesized using NiCl₂·6H₂O, NaN₃, and asymmetric salamo‐based ligands H₂L¹ and H₂L², respectively. The structural characterization was made by elemental analyses, infrared (IR) and ultraviolet‐visible (UV‐vis) spectra, and X‐ray diffraction analyses. The results of X‐ray diffraction analyses show that the Ni^II atoms in complexes 1 and 2 are distorted octahedral geometries. Interestingly, the degree of distortion of the ligands in complexes 1 and 2 is different, which indicates that the interaction of Ni^II ions on different ligands is different. Meanwhile, the investigation of molecular packing by employing the Hirshfeld surface analysis exhibits that the percentages of C–H/H–C, O–H/H–O, and H–H/H–H contacts of the complex 1 (or 2 ) are calculated to be 17.7%, 7.9%, and 53.7% (or 18.8%, 13.8%, and 52.5%), respectively, where the H–H/H–H contacts have the characteristics of strong contacts whereas the O–H/H–O hydrogen bonds are considerably weak, and the studies on fluorescence properties further confirm the Ni^II atoms have different binding abilities to the different ligands.     

Novel platinum(II) and (IV) complexes of naphthaldimine schiff bases

Naphthaldimines containing N₂O₂ donor centers react with platinum(II) and (IV) chlorides to give two types of complexes depending on the valence of the platinum ion. For [Pt(II)], the ligand is neutral, [(H₂L¹)PtCl₂]·3H₂O (1) and [(H₂L³)₂Pt₂Cl₄]·5H₂O (3), or monobasic [(HL²)₂Pt₂Cl₂]·2H₂O (2) and [(HL⁴)₂Pt]·2H₂O (4). These complexes are all diamagnetic having square-planar geometry. For [Pt(IV)], the ligand is dibasic, [(L¹)Pt₂Cl₄(OH)₂]·2H₂O (5), [(L²)Pt₃Cl₁₀]·3H₂O (6), [(L³)Pt₂Cl₄(OH)₂]·C₂H₅OH (7) and [(L⁴)Pt₂Cl₆]·H₂O (8). The Pt(IV) complexes are diamagnetic and exhibit octahedral configuration around the platinum ion. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis and IR spectra, electrical conductivity and thermal analyses (DTA and TGA). The molar conductances in DMF solutions indicate that the complexes are non-ionic. The complexes were tested for their catalytic activities towards cathodic reduction of oxygen.     

Synthesis,characterization, and antibacterial activity of two zinc(II) complexes with Schiff bases derived from rimantadine

The reactions of zinc(II) chloride and two Schiff base ligands derived from rimantadine and 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde/4-methoxysalicylaldehydes, generated two novel complexes [Zn(L¹)₂Cl₂] (I) and [Zn(L²)₂Cl₂] (II), where L¹ = 2-((1-(1-adamantan-1-yl)ethyl)-iminomethyl)-4-chlorophenol, L² = 2-((1-(1-adamantan-1-yl)ethyl)iminomethyl)-5-methoxyphenol. The complexes were characterized by the means of IR, ¹H NMR, elemental analysis, molar conductance and thermal analysis. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that both complexes crystallize in orthorhombic system, space group Fdd2 for I and Pbcn for II. In two complexes crystals, each asymmetric unit consists of one zinc(II) ion, two corresponding Schiff base ligands and two chlorine atoms; the central zinc atom lies on a twofold rotation axis and is four-coordinate via two chlorine atoms and two oxygen atoms from the Schiff base ligands, forming a distorted tetrahedral geometry.
