3-(Aryl)-2-sulfanylpropenoates of mercury(II) and phenylmercury(II)

Compounds [HQ]₂[Hg(L)₂] and [HQ][PhHg(L)] [where HQ = diisopropylammonium cation; L = pspa, fspa, tspa, where p = 3-(phenyl), f = 3-(2-furyl), t = 3-(2-thienyl), and spa = 2-sulfanylpropenoato] have been prepared by the reaction of mercury(II) acetate or phenylmercury(II) acetate with the corresponding acid in the presence of diisopropylamine in ethanol. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, FAB mass spectrometry and IR and NMR (¹H, ¹³C) spectroscopy. The crystal structures of the [HQ]₂[Hg(L)₂] compounds show the presence of diisopropylammonium cations and [Hg(L)₂]²⁻ anions. In each anion the Hg atom is in an HgO₂S₂ environment and this can be described as nido-tbp. The crystal structures of the [HQ][PhHg(L)] compounds show the presence of diisopropylammonium cations and [PhHg(L)]⁻ anions in which the Hg atom adopts an HgCOS distorted T-environment. The NMR data suggest that the coordination mode of the ligand L²⁻ determined by X-ray diffractometry in the solid remains in solution.     

Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 5-(2-carboxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin

A new series of hexacoordinate cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 5-(2-carboxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin HL having formulae [LM(OAc)(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (M = Co^II, Cu^II and Ni^II), [LMCl(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (M = Co^II and Ni^II), [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O, [LCu(H₂O)₃](ClO₄) and [LCu(HSO₄)(H₂O)₂] were isolated and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivities and magnetic susceptibilities, and by i.r., electronic and e.s.r. spectral measurements, as well as by thermal (t.g. and d.t.g.) analyses. The i.r. spectra indicate that the ligand HL behaves as a monobasic tridentate towards the three divalent metal ions via an azo-N, carboxylate-O and thiohydantoin-O atom. The magnetic moments and electronic spectral data suggest an octahedral geometry for Co^II complexes, distorted octahedral geometry for both Ni^II and Cu^II complexes with a dimeric structure for [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O through bridged chloro ligands. The X-band e.s.r. spectra reveal an axial symmetry for the copper(II) complexes with unsymmetrical M_s = ± 1 signal and G-parameter less than four for the dimeric [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O. The thermogravimetry (t.g. and d.t.g.) of some complexes were studied; the order and kinetic parameters of their thermal degradation were determined by applying Coats–Redfern method and discussed.     

Thermal and spectral studies of 5-(phenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin and 5-(2- hydroxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II)

Complexes of 5-(phenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin (L¹) and 5-(2-hydroxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin (HL²) with Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) salts have been synthesised and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, UV-Vis, IR, ESR and TG studies. The magnetic and spectral data suggested octahedral geometry for [L¹M(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂]·xH₂O {M=Ni^ll and Cu^ll} and [L¹CuCl₂(H₂O)]·H₂O (dimeric form for the latter), trigonal bipyramidal geometry for [L²Co(OAc)(H₂O)]·2H₂O, square pyramidal geometry for [L²Ni(OAc)(H₂O)]·H₂O and square planar geometry for [L²CuCl]·2H₂O. TG studies confirmed the chemical formulations of these complexes and showed that their thermal degradation takes place in three to five steps, depending on the type of the ligand and the geometry of the complex. The kinetic parameters (n, E^#, A, ΔH^#, ΔS^# and ΔG^#) of the thermal decomposition stages were computed using the Coats-Redfern and other standard equations and are discussed.     

Palladium(II)-, Platin(II)-, Ruthenium(II)-, Rhodium(III)- und Iridium(III)-Komplexe von Desoxyfructosazin

Metal Complexes of Biologically Important Ligands. CIII. [1] Palladium(II), Platinum(II), Ruthenium(II), Rhodium(III), and Iridium(III) Complexes of Desoxyfructosazine The reactions of the pyrazine derivative desoxyfructosazin(pz) with K₂PtCl₄ and with the chlorobridged [M(PR₃)Cl₂]₂ (M = Pd, Pt), [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)MCl₂]₂ and [(η⁶-p-Cymol)RuCl₂]₂ give the watersoluble complexes cis-Cl₂Pt(pz)₂, (R₃P)(Cl)M(pz)M(Cl)(PR₃) (M = Pd, Pt), (η⁵-C₅Me₅)(Cl)₂M(pz)M(Cl)₂(η⁵-C₅Me₅) (M = Rh, Ir), (η⁶-p-Cymol)(Cl₂)Ru(pz)Ru(Cl)₂(η⁶-p-Cymol).     

Thermal behavior of Cu(II)-, Cd(II)-, and Hg(II)-exchanged montmorillonite complexedwith cysteine

The thermal behavior of montmorillonite and organically modified montmorillonite, both treated with heavy metal cations [Cu(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II)], was characterized via thermal analyses (TG, DTG and DTA) combined with evolved species gas mass spectrometry (MS-EGA), and X-ray diffraction at in situ controlled temperature (HTXRD). The reactions involving Cu(II)- and Cd(II)-montmorillonite samples are mostly related to H₂O and OH loss, unlike Hg(II)-montmorillonite, where effects associated to Hg(II) loss are also present. Finally reactions related to dehydration, dehydroxylation and to organic matter decomposition can be observed in montmorillonite samples treated with cysteine.     

Picosecond flash-photolysis of Ni(II)- and Ag(II)-porphyrins

Photoexcitation of Ni(II)- and Ag(II)-porphyrins with a 10 ps pulse at 530 nm produces a new transient absorption. The transient species lifetimes were 250 ± 50 ps and 15 ± 8 ps for Ni- and Ag-porphyrins, respectively. It is shown that the triplet state is responsible for this absorption in Ag-porphyrin.

Cadmium(II)bis(oxalato)cobaltate(II)- pentahydrate

A mixed metal carboxylate, cadmium(II)bis(oxalato)cobaltate(II)pentahydrate, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectral, reflectance and X-ray powder diffraction studies. Thermal decomposition studies (TG, DTG and DTA) in air showed that the compound decomposed to CdCoO3 at 370°C through the formation of an anhydrous compound at ~194°C. Finally, CdCoO₂ is generated at 1000°C. DSC study in nitrogen up to 550°C showed the formation of a mixture of CdO and Co₃O₄ as end products. The kinetic parameters have been evaluated for the dehydration and decomposition steps using four non-mechanistic equations, i.e., Freeman and Carroll, Coats and Redfern, Flynn and Wall, MacCallum and Tanner equations. Using seven mechanistic equations, the rate controlling processes of the dehydration and decomposition mechanism are also inferred. The kinetic parameters, DH and DS obtained from DSC are discussed. IR and X-ray powder diffraction studies identified some of the decomposition products. A tentative mechanism for the decomposition in air is proposed. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 4-(sulfonylazido)phenylazopyrazolones

Transition metal complexes of Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II with 4-(4-azidosulfophenylazo)-5-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrazol-3-oneHL¹, 4-(4-azidosulfophenylazo)-5-methyl-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrazol-3-one HL² and 4-(3-azidosulfo-6-methoxyphenylazo)-5-methyl-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrazol-3-one HL³ were prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductances and magnetic susceptibilities and by i.r., electronic and e.s.r. spectral measurements as well as thermal (d.t.a and t.g.a.) analysis. The i.r. spectra indicate that HL acts as a bidentate ligand coordinating via the azo and enolic-oxygen linkages. The electronic spectral data and magnetic moments suggest a tetragonally distorted octahedral geometry for the complexes having the formula ML₂·2H₂O, (M = Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II), square pyramidal geometry for CuL ₂ ³ H₂O and tetrahedral geometry for CoL ₂ ³ . The X-band e.s.r. spectra of the copper(II) complexes reveal anaxial symmetry for both CuL ₂ ² 2H₂O and CuL ₂ ³ H₂O while CuL ₂ ¹ O is isotropic in the solid state at room temperature. The d.t.a. curves show two exothermic peaks for all three complexes CoL ₂ ³ ,NiL ₂ ³ 2H₂O and CuL ₂ ³ H₂O and one endothermic peak for the latter two aqua complexes.     

Copper(II), nickel(II), palladium(II) and iron(III) complexes of 2-(3-phthalhydrazidylazo)-1,3-diketones

Neutral complexes of three phthalhydrazidylazo-1,3-diketones [phthalhydrazidylazo-acetylacetone (H₂PAA),-benzoylacetone (H₂PBA) and-dibenzoylmethane (H₂PDM)] with Cu(II), Ni(II), Pd(II) and Fe(III) have been synthesised and characterized on the basis of their analytical data, magnetic moment, molar conductance and IR and¹H NMR spectral data. Dibasic tridentate coordination of the ligands is brought out by the above spectral data. Half-wave potentials and far IR spectral data of the Cu(II) complexes indicate that the H₂PAA complex is the most stable. M?ssbauer spectra of the Fe(III) complexes reveal that delocalisation of the metald electrons with the chelate ring decreases with increasing capability of the pendant groups of the ring for cross conjugation.     

Carbonyl-organocobalt(I) and -(II) complexes

Passage of CO through solutions of complexes (C₆F₅)₂CoL₂ gives carbonyl derivatives (C₆F₅)₂CoL₂(CO) (L₂ = 2 PEt₃, 2 P-n-Bu₃, 2 PPh₃, Ph₂PCH₂CH₃PPh₂). The properties of these compounds are described.The compounds are also produced by treating solutions of (C₆F₅)₂Co-(dioxane)₂ with CO, but a simultaneous reduction to (C₆F₅)Co(CO)₄ takes place. Treatment of the latter complex with monodentate ligands gives substitution products (C₆F₅)Co(CO)₃L (L = PEt₃, P-n-Bu₃, PPh₃) all of which are monomeric, whereas the addition of Ph₂PCH₂CH₂PPh₂ gives the dimer (C₆F₅)(CO)₂CoLLCo(CO)₂(C₆F₅). The properties of these compounds are discussed.     

Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) Complexes with 1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-Triazole

New complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole (L) of the composition ML₂(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₂ · nH₂O (M = Co(II), n = 3; M = Ni(II), n = 0; M = Cu(II), n = 0) were synthesized and studied by photoelectron and IR spectroscopy, magnetochemistry, thermogravimetry, and X-ray powder diffraction analysis. The type of _eff(T) relationship suggests that paramagnetic centers in the Co(II) chloride and Cu(II) nitrate and bromide complexes are involved in antiferromagnetic exchange interactions. The exchange energy values were estimated by the molecular field method.

The formazan nickel(II) system shows linkage isomerism; one isomer, A, contains an unusual five-membered formazan chelate ring, whereas the other, isomer B, has the usual six-membered ring.¹³C n.m.r., u.v. and i.r. spectra are presented and interpreted. From these the palladium and platinum complexes appear to contain the six-membered ring of the B type isomer.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,and spectral properties of Mn(II) and Co(II) complexes with 3-(p-chlorophenyl)- 4-(p-methylphenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole

Two new complexes, trans-[MnL₂(NCS)₂] (1) and trans-[CoL₂(H₂O)(EtOH)](ClO₄)₂?·?H₂O (2) with asymmetrical triaryltriazole ligands [L?=?3-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-(p-methylphenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole], have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Antifer-romagnetic exchange interactions between the M²⁺ ions were discovered in the [Co₃L₁₀(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₆ and [Ni₃L₁₀(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₆ complexes, whereas ferromagnetic exchange interactions were observed in the complexes [Ni₃L₆(H₂O)₆]Cl₆, [Ni₃L₆(H₂O)₆]Br₆, and [Cu₅L₁₆(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₁₀ · 2H₂O.     

Palladium(II)- and mercury(II)-catalyzed rearrangements of propargyl acetates

The scope and utility of the metal-catalyzed rearrangement of propargyl acetates first reported by Rautenstrauch were expanded. Treatment of a series of appropriate acetate substrates with Pd(II)- and Hg(II)-catalysts afforded synthetically useful fused 5,6-bicyclic-1,4-cyclopentadienyl acetates and 2-cyclopentenones. It was found that the substituents at the terminal alkynyl and alkenyl positions of the acetate substrate had a significant impact on the outcome of the reaction.     

Bis -(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazolyl-1-methyl)-(3-phosphanyl-propyl)-amine complexes of copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II)

A series of Cu(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) complexes of bis-(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazolyl-1-methyl)-(3-phosphanyl-propyl)-amine C₁₅H₂₆N₅P (1), prepared from 3-aminopropylphosphine and 1-hydroxymethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazole were characterized. The nature of bonding and the geometry of the complexes have been deduced from elemental analysis, infrared, electronic, ¹H NMR, ³¹P NMR spectra, magnetic susceptibility, and conductivity measurements. The studies indicate octahedral geometry for nickel complex and square pyramidal geometry for copper and cobalt complexes.

Biological activities of the ligand and metal complexes have been studied on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Aspergillus niger, and Aspergillus flavus by well-diffusion method. The zone of inhibition values were measured at 37°C for a period of 24 h. The electrochemical behavior of copper complexes was studied by cyclic voltammetry. Catalytic study indicates the copper complex has efficient catalytic activity in oxidation of amitriptyline.
