Two isomorphous Mn(II) and Co(II) 5-amino-tetrazolate coordination polymers with magnetic Δ-chains: crystal structures and magnetic properties

Two Co(II) and Mn(II) coordination polymers, which have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions, are isomorphous with magnetic Δ-chains containing trinuclear triangular [M(3)(μ(3)-OH)] clusters. The Δ-chains are bridged by isonicotinic spacers to generate a two-dimensional scalariform layer structure. Magnetic investigations indicate that Co(II) compound exhibits not only spin canting but also metamagnetic behaviors, while only spin-canted antiferromagnetic behaviors was observed in Mn(II) compound.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of copper(II)-cobalt(II) complexes ofN,N′-1,2-propanedisalicylamidatocuprate(II)

Summary The binuclear metal complexes [Cu(sampn)Co(L)₂] (L=bipy, phen), have been prepared by the reaction of sodiumN,N-1,2-propanedisalicylamidatocuprate(II) heptahydrate, Na₂[Cu(sampn)] 7H₂O, with a divalent metalion, and 2,2-bipyridine or 1, 10-phenathroline. The complexes were characterized by variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements; the results indicate that a weak antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction operates between the metal ions.     

Synthesis,structure and magnetic studies of copper(II)-nickel(II) complexes withN,N′-bis(2-aminopropyl)oxamidocopper(II)

Three novel heterobinuclear complexes have been prepared and identified as [Cu(oxap)Ni(L)₂](ClO₄)₂·ξH₂O, where oxap denotes theN,N′-bis(2-aminopropyl)oxamido dianion and L denotes 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (NO₂-phen). The crystal structure of [Cu(oxap)Ni(phen)₂]-(ClO₄)₂·2H₂O has been determined. Crystal data: triclinic, space group , a=12.079 (6), b=12.409 (4), c=17.261 (8) ?, α=70.91 (2), β=86.72 (4), γ=89.19 (3)^o. At room temperature, Z=2. The Cu^II is in a square planar environment and the Ni^II is in an octahedral environment. The Cu−Ni distance is 5.292 ?. The temperature dependences of the magnetic susceptibilities of [Cu(oxap)Ni(phen)₂]-(ClO₄)₂·2H₂O and [Cu(oxap)Ni(bipy)₂](ClO₄)₂ have been studied in the 4.2–300 K range, giving the exchange integral J=−92.4 cm⁻¹ for bipy and J=−94.3 cm⁻¹ for phen. These results are commensurate with antiferromagnetic interactions between the adjacent metal ions.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of heterobinuclear copper(II)–iron(II) complexes with N,N′-bis(2-aminopropyl)oxamidocopper(II)

Six new -oxamido heterobinuclear complexes, namely [Cu(oxap)Fe(L)2]SO4, where oxap denotes the N,N-bis(2-aminopropyl)oxamido dianion and L represents 1,10-phenanthroline (phen); 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (NO2-phen); 5-chloro-1,10-phenanthroline (Cl-phen); 5-methyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Me-phen); 2,2-bipyridine (bpy); and 4,4-dimethyl-2,2-bipyridine (Me2bpy), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, i.r. spectra, electronic spectra, magnetic moments (at room temperature) and molar conductivity measurements. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibilities of [Cu(oxap)Fe(bpy)2]SO4 (1) and [Cu(oxap)Fe(phen)2]SO4 (2) have been studied in the 4.2–300K range, giving the exchange integrals J=–20.9cm–1 for (1) and J=–22.5cm–1 for (2). These results are commensurate with antiferromagnetic interactions between adjacent metal ions within each molecule.     

Synthesis,structures and magnetic properties of four 3D heterometallic cobalt(II)–barium(II) coordination polymers

Four heterometallic complexes, namely {[CoBa(2,5-pdc)₂(H₂O)₃]_n·2nH₂O} (1), [CoBa(2,5-pdc)₂(H₂O)₄]_n (2), [CoBa(2,5-pdc)₂(H₂O)₅]_n (3) and [CoBa₂(2,5-pdc)₃(μ₂-H₂O)₂(H₂O)₄]_n (4) (2,5-H₂pdc?=?pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid), have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized both structurally and magnetically. All four complexes exhibit 3D frameworks, in which the Co(II) centers are chelated by pyridine nitrogen and carboxyl oxygen atoms in a five-membered ring. The Ba(II) centers are chelated and bridged by carboxyl oxygen atoms to extend the structures into 3D frameworks. The networks of the complexes can be controlled via rationally choosing the appropriate ligand and tuning the ratio of the two types of metal centers. The magnetic properties of complexes 1, 2 and 4 have been investigated from 2 to 300 K.     

Structural, MALDI-TOF-MS, magnetic and spectroscopic studies of new dinuclear copper(II), cobalt(II) and zinc(II) complexes containing a biomimicking μ-OH bridge

The Py(2)N(4)S(2) octadentate coordinating ligand afforded dinuclear cobalt, copper and zinc complexes and the corresponding mixed metal compounds. The overall geometry and bonding modes have been deduced on the basis of elemental analysis data, MALDI-TOF-MS, IR, UV-vis and EPR spectroscopies, single-crystal X-Ray diffraction, conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements. In the copper and zinc complexes, a μ-hydroxo bridge links the two metal ions. In both cases, the coordination geometry is distorted octahedral. Magnetic and EPR data reveal weakly antiferromagnetic high spin Co(II) ions, compatible with a dinuclear structure. The magnetic characterization of the dinuclear Cu(II) compound indicates a ferromagnetically coupled dimer with weak antiferromagnetic intermolecular interactions. The intra-dimer ferromagnetic behaviour was unexpected for a Cu(II) dimer with such μ-hydroxo bridging topology. We discuss the influence on the magnetic properties of non-covalent interactions between the bridging moiety and the lattice free water molecules.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of copper(II)-MII-copper(II) trinuclear complexes with N,N′-bis(2-aminoethyl)oxamidocopper(II) [M = Co and Ni]

Summary Two novel trinuclear complexes were prepared, namely [Cu₂(oxae)₂(H₂O)₂M] (ClO₄)₂, [oxae = N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl) oxamido dianion; M = Co and Ni]. Based on elemental analyses, conductivity measurements and i.r. spectra, the complexes are proposed to have extended oxamidobridged structures. The magnetic susceptibility of [Cu₂-(oxae) ₂(H₂O)₂Co](ClO₄)₂ were measured over the 4–300 K range and the observed data were successfully simulated by an equation based on the spin Hamiltonian, =–2J(₁·₂·₂·₃). The exchange integral, J, was found to be equal to –29.2 cm^–1, indicating an antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction between the adjacent metal ions.

Synthesis,spectral, magnetic,electrochemical and catalytic studies of cyclam-based copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes–effect of N-substitution

New N-substituted cyclam ligands 1,8-[bis(3-formyl-2-hydroxy-5-methyl)benzyl]-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane, 1,8-[bis(3-formyl-2-hydroxy-5-methyl)benzyl]-4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane, 1,8-[bis(3-formyl-2-hydroxy-5-bromo)benzyl]-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane, and 1,8-[bis(3-formyl-2-hydroxy-5-bromo)benzyl]-4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (L¹–L⁴) were synthesized and mononuclear copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes prepared. The ligands and complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, electronic, IR, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectral studies. N-alkylation causes red shifts in the λ_max values of the complexes. Copper(II) complexes show one-electron, quasi-reversible reduction waves in the range ?1.04 to ?1.00 V. The nickel(II) complexes show one-electron, quasi-reversible reduction waves in the range ?1.18 to ?1.30 V and one-electron, quasi-reversible oxidation waves in the range +1.20 to +1.40 V. The reduction potential of the copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes of the ligands L¹ to L² and L³ to L⁴ shift anodically on N-alkylation. The ESR spectra of the mononuclear copper(II) complexes show four lines, characteristic of square-planar geometry with nuclear hyperfine spin 3/2. All copper(II) complexes show a normal room temperature magnetic moment value μ_eff?=?1.70–1.74 BM which is close to the spin only value of 1.73 BM. Kinetic studies on the oxidation of pyrocatechol to o-quinone using the copper(II) complexes as catalysts and on the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenylphosphate using the copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes as catalyst were carried out. The tetra-N-substituted complexes have higher rate constants than the corresponding disubstituted complexes.     

Spectral, magnetic and thermal characterisation of new Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with Schiff base 5-bromo-N,N′-bis-(salicylidene)-o-tolidine

Starting from 5-bromo-N,N′-bis-(salicylidene)-o-tolidine (H₂L) new complexes with Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) were synthesised and characterised. The features of complexes have been assigned from microanalytical, IR, UV–Vis–NIR and EPR spectra, magnetic data at room temperature as well as thermal analysis. IR data are in accordance with bischelate nature of the deprotonated ligand that coordinates through azomethinic nitrogen and phenolic oxygen. The electronic spectra display the characteristic pattern of tetrahedral stereochemistry for [CoL]·H₂O complex and octahedral one for [NiL(OH₂)₂]·H₂O complex. The electronic spectra correlated with magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate a square-planar surrounding for [ML] (M:Ni, Cu) species, while the EPR spectrum of copper complex sustains the proposed stereochemistry. The thermal analysis evidenced that thermal transformations are complex processes according to TG, DTA and DTG curves including (crystallization or coordination) water elimination, thermolyses and oxidative degradation of Schiff base. All these processes lead to the most stable metallic oxides as final product.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties comparison of M-Cu(II) and M-VO(II) Schiff base-porphyrazine complexes: what is the mechanism for spin-coupling?

Dimetallic Schiff base-porphyrazine (pz) compounds, denoted 1[M(1); M(2); R], have been prepared, where metal ion M(1) is incorporated into the pz core, and metal ion M(2) is bound to a bis(5-tert-butylsalicylidenimine) chelate built onto two amino nitrogens attached to the pz periphery; R is a solubilizing group (either propyl (Pr) or 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl (TMP)) attached to the remaining carbons of the pz periphery. The synthesis of 1[Cu; Cu; R], 1[Cu; VO; R], 1[ClMn; Cu; Pr], and 1[ClMn; VO; Pr] is discussed, the crystal structures of 1[Cu; Cu; TMP] and 1[ClMn; VO; Pr] are presented, and the magnetic properties of these compounds are compared. The pattern of ligand-mediated exchange coupling in these complexes is startling: for the Cu-M(2) complexes 1[Cu; VO; R] and 1[Cu; Cu; R], 2 x 10(2) < or = |J(Cu-VO)/J(Cu-Cu)|; for the ClMn-M(2) complexes 1[ClMn; Cu; Pr] and 1[ClMn; VO; Pr], J(ClMn-VO)/J(ClMn-Cu) approximately 1/3, an inverse ratio from that of the Cu-M(2) complexes, but with lesser discrimination. This coupling pattern is explained in terms of a novel orientation relative to the M(1)-M(2) direction: the "square-planar" Schiff base ligand set of M(2) is rotated in-plane by 45 degrees relative to the effectively coplanar pz ligand set of M(1).     

Rhenium(IV)–copper(II) heterobimetallic complexes: Synthesis,crystal structure and magnetic properties

Two Re(IV)–Cu(II) heterometallic complexes {(CuL_α)[ReCl₄(ox)]}_n (where L_α = N-meso-5,12-Me₂-7,14-Et₂-[14]-4,11-dieneN₄), 1, and (CuL_β)[ReCl₄(ox)] (L_β = N-rac-5,12-Me₂-7,14-Et₂-[14]-4,11-dieneN₄N-rac-5,12-Me₂-7,14-Et₂-[14]-4,11-dieneN₄), 2, were synthesized. The [CuL²⁺] macrocyclic cation is coordinated from above and below by [ReCl₄(ox)]²⁻ units through the chloro-ligands and creates a chloro-bridged heterometallic Re^IV–Cu^II one-dimensional zig-zag chain. Compound 2 can be viewed as a heterobimetallic dinuclear unit, in which the Re(IV)-Cu(II) centers are linked by an oxalato bridge. The magnetic behavior of 1 and 2 has been investigated over the temperature range 1.8–300 K. Compound 1 behaves like a ferrimagnetic {Re(IV)–Cu(II)} bimetallic, one-dimensional chain with intrachain antiferromagnetic coupling. Compound 2 shows a weak antiferromagnetic interaction within the [Re(IV)–Cu(II)] unit along with a strong single-ion anisotropy, D(Re) = −63 cm⁻¹.

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.     

Synthesis and magnetic characterization of Ln(III)–Co(II) complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline ligands

Four heteronuclear complexes, [Ln₂Co₂L₁₀(H₂O)(phen)₂] · n(H₂O) (Ln = La 1, n = 2; Ln = Nd 2, Sm 3, Gd 4, n = 0; HL = α-methylacrylic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and X-ray diffraction. The complexes with a discrete Co–Ln–Ln–Co tetranuclear molecule are isomorphous in the triclinic space group P 1 and Z = 1, in which all metal ions are bridged by bidentate α-methylacrylato groups. Magnetic measurements of 1, 2 and 3 show antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between paramagnetic centers.     

Synthesis,crystal structures,magnetic and luminescent properties of nickel(II) and cadmium(II) coordination polymers bearing 5-(2′-carboxylphenyl) nicotate ligands

Two coordination polymers, namely [M(cpna)(phen)(H₂O)] _n (M = Ni, 1; Cd, 2, H₂cpna = 5-(2′-carboxylphenyl) nicotic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic and luminescence measurements. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies show that the two complexes are isostructural polymers. They have 1D step-like chain structures, which are further extended into 3D metal–organic supramolecular frameworks by π–π stacking interactions. Magnetic studies for complex 1 show antiferromagnetic coupling between the adjacent Ni(II) centers, with g = 2.10 and J = −4.30 cm⁻¹. Complex 2 displays strong green fluorescent emission at room temperature.     

π-Extended and six-coordinate iron(II) complexes: structures, magnetic properties, and the electrochemical synthesis of a conducting iron(II) metallopolymer

Herein, we describe the preparation of three new bidentate π-extended derivatives of the ligand N-phenyl-2-pyridinalimine (ppi) containing a 3-thienyl (4) substituent at position 4 of the aniline ring or 2-thienyl (6) or phenyl (2) substituents at each of the 2,5 positions of the aniline rings. Three iron(2+) complexes (7-9) containing these ligands were prepared by combining two equivalents each of 2, 4, or 6 with Fe(NCS)(2), and the resulting neutral, six-coordinate complexes were fully characterized, including with single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments in the case of complexes 7 and 9. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility and Mo?ssbauer experiments confirm the presence of spin-crossover in complexes 7 and 8, and the unusual solid state variable temperature magnetic properties of complex 9 likely result from crystal packing forces. Electropolymerization of the 2,5-dithienyl-substituted complex (9) produces a conducting and electrochromic metallopolymer film (poly-9).     

Solvatochromism and piezochromism of pentacyanoferrates(II) and of mixed valence iron(II)—iron(III) and ruthenium(II)—ruthenium(III) species

Pressure effects on the MLCT bands of the pyrazine- and 4-cyanopyridine-pentacyanoferrate(II) anions have been established. The relation of these piezochromic effects to the solvatochromism of each complex is put into the correlation between these parameters developed for other d⁶ ternary complexes. The conformance of piezochromic and solvatochromic efrects on MMCT bands for diiron and diruthenium mixed valence complexes to this correlation is examined.
