Novel thiosalamo ligand as a remarkably stable N2S2 salen-type chelate and synthesis of a nickel(II) complex

Novel N2S2 tetradentate chelate ligand H2tsalamo, which contains both thiol groups and C=N moieties, was synthesized as a remarkably stable compound. Complexation between H2tsalamo and nickel(II) acetate gave a square planar complex [Ni(tsalamo)] as dark brown crystals, whose structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. In contrast, the corresponding N2O2 ligands, salamo and 3-MeOsalamo, gave trinuclear and mononuclear complexes, respectively, in which all the nickel atoms have octahedral geometry.

Magnetic properties of a manganese(II) trinuclear complex involving a tridentate Schiff-Base ligand

The Schiff condensation of 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde N-oxide with 2-aminophenol gave a tridentate ligand, abbreviated as Hpoxap. This ligand bears the functionality of a terminating group in a trinuclear complex [Mn(poxap)Mn(ac)4Mn(poxap)], where ac- is the acetate bridge. The magnetic data were treated simultaneously during the fitting procedure with the spin Hamiltonian containing isotropic exchange, the zero-field splitting parameters, and the molecular-field correction and resulted in JMn-Mn/hc = -4.73 cm-1, gMn(t) = 1.96, DMn(t)/hc = -0.45 cm-1, and zj/hc = +0.45 cm-1 with ground state S = 5/2, where t = terminal atom. At low temperature, the features of a ferromagnetic correlation become evident.     

Structure and magnetic properties of a new dinuclear nickel(II) complex with a dinucleating hexaazamacrocycle

The crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new dinuclear nickel(II) complex [LNi2(AcO)4]·14H2O, where L = 3,6,9,17,20,23-hexaazatricyclo [23.3.1.111,13] triaconta-1(29),11(30),12,14,25(26),27-hexene, has been studied.

Each Ni atom is six coordinated by three N atoms from the macrocycle and three O atoms from the two coordinated acetates; two nickel atoms in each macrocycle are at the distance of 7.028Å. The result of the magnetic measurement indicates that the zero-field splitting constant of nickel(II) centres |D| = 1.87 cm–1.

Synthesis and magnetic properties of new nickel(II)-copper(II)-nickel(II) trinuclear complexes with irregular spin-state structure

Summary Four novel heterotrinuclear complexes were prepared, namely {[Ni(L)₂]₂[Cu(pba)]}(ClO₄)₂, where pba = pro-pylene-1,3-bis(oxamato) and L = 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (NO₂-phen), 2,2-bipyridyl (bpy), 4,4-dimethyl-2,2-bipyridyl (Me₂bpy). Based on i.r., elemental analyses, conductivity measurements and electronic spectra oxamato-bridged structures are proposed for these complexes, consisting of two nickel(II) ions, each in a distorted octahedral environment, and a copper(II) ion in a square planar environment, respectively. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of {[Ni(phen)₂]₂[Cu(pba)]}(ClO₄)₂·H₂O was studied in the 4–300 K range, giving the exchange integral J = - 106 cm^–1. TheX _scm T versusT plot exhibited a minimum at ca. 98 K, characteristic of this kind of coupled polymetallic complex with an irregular spin-state structure. E.s.r. spectra of these complexes clearly indicated a strong rhombicity withg ₁ = 5.20,g ₂ = 2.29 andg ₃ = 2.02 (approximately), which agrees with an anisotropicS = ±1/2 Kramer doublet in the ground state.

Encapsulation of nickel(II) and copper(II) by a tetraazamacrocyclic ligand

A tetraazamacrocyclic ligand, L, containing six non-equivalent benzene rings, derived from the condensation of benzil with 1,2- diaminobenzene, has been isolated and its complexes [MLCl₂] (M = Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺) prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, i.r., u.v.–vis., e.p.r. spectral studies, magnetic moments, redox potentials and conductivity measurements. The complexes have axially elongated octahedral geometries with two axial chlorines, and adopt the trans-configuration. These studies also indicate the covalent nature and the high-spin octahedral structure for these complexes. A cyclic voltammetric investigation reveals that the complexes exhibit a single one-electron redox couple, as anticipated for a copper(II) complex (Cu²⁺/Cu⁺) and a single two-electron redox couple for a nickel(II) complex (Ni²⁺/Ni⁰). The electrochemical processes are considered quasi-reversible. Antimicrobial activities of the ligand and the complexes have been tested against Bacillus megaterium and Candida tropicallis.     

Synthesis and studies of a trinuclear Mn(II) carboxylate complex

We report a carboxylate triangle consisting of three manganese(II) centres which is made from manganese(II) carbonate and pivalic acid. The magnetic exchange within the triangle is extremely weak, and antiferromagnetic. Several models have been used to fit the magnetic data, and the best fit uses two weak antiferromagnetic coupling constants of J(1)=-0.588 cm(-1) and J(2)=-0.855 cm(-1). Exchange interactions between the metal centres has been calculated using DFT adopting all the three possible Heisenberg models for a trinuclear system and the results are compared with experimental values. Spin density distribution is used to analyse the nature of the coupling between the metal centres. EPR spectroscopy has been used to explore the nature of the ground state. Recrystallisation of the trinuclear compound from MeCN gives a polymer, while oxidation in air leads to a known compound--an edge-sharing bitetrahedral (MnIII2MnII4) cage.

The complex is characterized by spectroscopic, electrochemical, and thermal analysis. X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals that the central copper atom displays the distorted square planar geometry. The water molecule present in the lattice participates in a strong hydrogen bonding network, which leads to a 2D supramolecular arrangement.
