Temperature-dependent in situ ligand cyclization via C═C coupling and formation of a spin-crossover iron(II) coordination polymer

The reaction of N(1),N(2)-bis(pyridin-4-ylmethylene)ethane-1,2-diamine (L) with Fe(NCS)(2) under various temperatures gave rise to three iron(II) coordination polymers, namely, one-dimensional [Fe(L')(NCS)(2)] (1), two-dimensional [Fe(L)(2)(NCS)(2)]·H(2)O (2), and one-dimensional [Fe(L)(2)(NCS)(2)]·2CH(2)Cl(2)·4MeOH (3). The formation of 1 involved an in situ C═C coupling reaction, L to L' [L' = 5,6-di(pyridin-4-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrazine], which was catalyzed by cyanide ions decomposed from thiocyanates; the manganese(II) (1a) and zinc(II) (1b) analogues of 1 were also synthesized for comparison. Magnetic studies showed that complex 1 underwent a pressure-dependent one-step incomplete spin transition whereas complexes 2 and 3 were paramagnetic in the whole temperature range.     

Effect of Ligand Field Strength on the Spin Crossover Behaviour in 5‐X‐SalEen (X=Me,Br and OMe) Based Fe(III) Complexes

The reaction of Fe(NCS)₃ prepared in situ in MeOH with 5‐X‐SalEen ligands (5‐X‐SalEen=condensation product of 5‐substituted salicylaldehyde and N‐ethylethylenediamine) provided three Fe(III) complexes, [Fe(5‐X‐SalEen)₂]NCS; X=Me ( 1 ), X=Br ( 2 ), X=OMe ( 3 ). All the complexes reveal similar structural features but a very different magnetic profile. Complex 1 shows a gradual spin crossover while complexes 2 and 3 show a sharp spin transition. The T_1/2 for complex 2 is 237 K while for complex 3 it is much higher with a value of 361 K. The spin transition temperature is shifted towards higher temperature with increasing electron‐donation ability of the ligand substituents. This experimental observation has been rationalized with DFT calculations. UV‐Vis and cyclic voltammetry studies support the fact that the electron density on the ligand increases from Me to Br to OMe substituents. To understand the change in spin states, temperature‐dependent EPR spectra have been recorded. The spin state equilibrium in the liquid state has been probed with Evans NMR spectroscopic method, and thermodynamic parameters have been evaluated for all complexes.     

Computational study of the thermal decomposition and the thermochemistry of allyl ethers and allyl sulfides

In spite of the several experimental and computational studies on the thermal decomposition of allyl ethers and allyl sulfides, there are still disagreements on aspects of the reaction mechanism, such as the true nature of the transition states and the grade of synchronicity of the reactions. This work presents a computational study of the gas-phase thermolysis reaction of allyl ethers and allyl sulfides substituted at α-carbon, at the M05-2X/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory and a temperature range from 586.15 to 673.15 K. The substituent groups were methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, allyl, benzyl and acetonyl. It was found that the sulfides react faster than the homologous ethers and that the substituent groups with the capacity of delocalize charge increase the reaction rate. Through natural bond orbital calculations, the transition states were characterized. The synchronicities and atomic charges of the studied reactions were determined. A computational study at the G3 level of theory on the thermochemistry of allyl ethers and sulfides was also carried out.     

An easy and efficient synthesis of 3-nitrochromans

The reaction of nitro olefins reacted with (E)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1-nitroethylene in the presence of DABCO generates 3-nitrochroman with a high stereoselectivity. A possible reaction mechanism for the reaction and the transition states involved in producing the final product are proposed. The treatment of 3-nitrochromans with t-BuOK give alkenes.     

Heterogeneous reactions of solid nickel(II) complexes,V

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of solid complexes of the type Ni(NCS)₂L₂ (L=pyridine,β-picoline and quinoline), of pseudooctahedral configuration, were studied by using isothermal methods, on the basis of losses of weight, in the temperature range 90–191?. The most suitable reaction order for all the complexes under investigation was found to ben=2/3, i.e. the total decomposition rate is determined by the chemical process proper. The calculated values ofE _a(in kcal · mole^?1) decrease in the following order: Ni(NCS)₂py₂ (29.4)>Ni(NCS)₂(β-pic)₂ (27.6)>Ni(NCS)₂Q₂ (24.3). With increasing volume of the ligand L the reaction rate also increases, and this suggests that the reaction proceeds by dissociative activation. For all the investigated complexes it was found that δH>E _A; this may be explained by a several-step mechanism and the complex Ni(NCS)₂L is then considered an intermediate.     

Crystal structure and thermal behavior of tris(ethylenediamine)chromium(III) complex—II: Solid state thermal behaviour of (+)589-tris(ethylenediamine)chromium(IIII) thiocyanate

The solid state deamination reactions of (+)₅₈₉-[Cr(en)₃](NCS)₃ and (±)-[Cr(en)₃](NCS)₃·H₂O have been investigated by DTA, TG and isothermal techniques. The rates of thermal deamination and apparent racemization reactions of (+)₅₈₉-[Cr(en)₃](NCS)₃ were determined at selected temperatures, and the activation energies of these reactions, 27 kcal/mol (deamination reaction) and 24 kcal/mol (racemization reaction), were obtained from these Arrhenius plots. The racemization was mainly accompanied with the deamination process. After the deamination reactions finished at 132°C for 7 hr (optically active complex) and 130°C for 7 hr (racemic complex), both yellow optically active- and racemic-complexes changed to orange powders and then for both deamination products the formation of trans-[Cr(en)₂(NCS)₂](NCS) was conclusively demonstrated by the chromatographic evidence. The mutual relation of the thermal behavior and the crystal structure in this system has also been discussed by comparison with present thermal data and our previous X-ray result of (+)₅₈₉-[Cr(en)₃](NCS)₃ crystal.     

Synthesis and properties of azoles and their derivatives. 36. Synthesis of 2-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles, 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles,and 1,2,4-triazoline-3-thiones containing indolyl radicals

On the heterocyclization of 1-(indol-3-ylcarbonyl)thiosemicarbazides, depending on the conditions of performing the reaction, either 1,2,4-triazoline-3-thiones, 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles, or 2-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles containing an indolyl residue in position 5 are obtained. 1,2,4-Triazoline-3-thiones and 2-amino-1,3, 4-thiadazoles have also been synthesized by the reaction of the hydrochloride of ethyl indol-3-carboximidate with thiosemicarbazides.For communication 35, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsilicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1271–1276, September, 1984.     

Novel supramolecular isomerism in coordination polymer synthesis from unsymmetrical bridging ligands: solvent influence on the ligand placement orientation and final network structure

The assembly of Co(NCS)(2) with 1-methyl-1'-(3-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethene (L(1)) exhibits a novel supramolecular isomerism of [Co(L(1))(2)(NCS)(2)](infinity) caused by different placement orientation of L(1) around metal centers. The reaction in MeOH/H(2)O and EtOH/H(2)O resulted in a double chain structure of 1, and that in EtOH/CH(3)NO(2) led to an open framework structure of 2. The reaction in MeOH/CH(3)NO(2) solvent system concomitantly afforded 1 and 2. The assemblies of 1-(3-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyrimidyl)ethene (L(2)) with Co(NCS)(2) created the water-coordinated complexes of Co(L(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)(NCS)(2) (3 and 4), an MeOH coordinated complex of Co(L(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)(NCS)(2) (5), and an open framework coordination polymer of [Co(L(1))(2)(NCS)(2)](infinity) (6) depending on the reaction solvent system. From these observations, it is suggested that in the formation of 1, the solvent-coordinated intermediate species would be generated first and its trans coordination configuration should define the placement orientation of L(1) in the resulting polymer of 1. On the other hand, it is presumed that the solvent-coordinated intermediate would not be produced during the formation of 2 due to the weaker coordination ability of EtOH and CH(3)NO(2) molecules. The open framework coordination polymers of 2 and 6 are converted in the solid state into the isomeric coordination polymer of 1 and hydrogen bonded network structure of 3, respectively.     

Relevance of the ligand exchange rate and mechanism of fac-[(CO)3M(H2O)3]+ (M = Mn, Tc, Re) complexes for new radiopharmaceuticals

The water exchange process on fac-[(CO)3Mn(H2O)3]+ and fac-[(CO)3Tc(H2O)3]+ was kinetically investigated by 17O NMR as a function of the acidity, temperature, and pressure. Up to pH 6.3 and 4.4, respectively, the exchange rate is not affected by the acidity, thus demonstrating that the contribution of the monohydroxo species fac-[(CO)3M(OH)(H2O)2] is not significant, which correlates well with a higher pKa for these complexes compared to the homologue fac-[(CO)3Re(H2O)3]+ complex. The water exchange rate K298ex/s(-1) (DeltaHex double dagger/kJ mol(-1); DeltaSex double dagger/J mol(-1) K(-1); DeltaV double dagger/cm3 mol-1) decreases down group 7 from Mn to Tc and Re: 23 (72.5; +24.4; +7.1) > 0.49 (78.3; +11.7; +3.8) > 5.4 x 10(-3) (90.3; +14.5; -). For the Mn complex only, an O exchange on the carbonyl ligand could be measured (K338co = 4.3 x 10(-6) s(-1)), which is several orders of magnitude slower than the water exchange. In the case of the Tc complex, the coupling between 17O (I = 5/2) and 99Tc (I = 9/2) nuclear spins has been observed (1J99Tc,17O = 80 +/- 5 Hz). The substitution of water in fac-[(CO)3M(H2O)3]+ by dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is slightly faster than that by CH3CN: 3 times faster for Mn, 1.5 times faster for Tc, and 1.2 times faster for Re. The pressure dependence behavior is different for Mn and Re. For Mn, the change in volume to reach the transition state is always clearly positive (water exchange, CH3CN, DMS), indicating an Id mechanism. In the case of Re, an Id/Ia changeover is assigned on the basis of reaction profiles with a strong volume maximum for pyrazine and a minimum for DMS as the entering ligand.     

X-ray absorption spectroscopic studies of chromium nitroso complexes. Crystal and molecular structure of (Ph4P)3[Cr(NO)(NCS)5].2.4(CH3)2CO

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) provides a direct means of solving the controversy on Cr oxidation states in nitroso complexes. The first XAS studies of four known Cr-NO complexes, [Cr(NO)(OH(2))(5)](2+), [Cr(NO)(acac)(2)(OH(2))], [Cr(NO)(CN)(5)](3)(-), and [Cr(NO)(NCS)(5)](3)(-), have been performed, in comparison with the related Cr(III) complexes, [Cr(OH(2))(6)](3+), [Cr(acac)(3)], [Cr(CN)(6)](3)(-), and [Cr(NCS)(6)](3)(-). The X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra of the Cr-NO complexes are distinguished from those of the corresponding Cr(III) complexes by increased intensities of pre-edge absorbancies due to the 1s --> 3d transition, as well as with slight shifts (by 0.2-1.0 eV) of the edge positions to lower energies, with no major changes in the edge shape. These features, together with the available structural data on Cr-NO complexes, show that the effective Cr oxidation states in such complexes are close to Cr(III), due to the pi-back-bonding within the Cr-NO moiety. Multiple-scattering fitting of X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectra of [Cr(NO)(acac)(2)(OH(2))] supported the assignment of this complex as a trans-isomer (Keller, A.; Jezovska-Trzebiatowska, B. Polyhedron 1985, 4, 1847-1852). The first crystal structure of a Cr nitroso-isothiocyanato complex, (Ph(4)P)(3)[Cr(NO)(NCS)(5)].2.4(CH(3))(2)CO, has been determined.     

A computational study of the reactions of thiiranes with ammonia and amines

The relative rates of reaction of thiirane and thiirane derivatives with NH3, a series of secondary amines including aziridine, and trimethylamine were determined in the gas phase by means of B3LYP/6-31+G(d)//HF/6-31+G(d) computations and transition state theory. Convergence of the results was selectively tested using the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Comparison with MP2/6-31 + G(d)//MP2/6-31G(d) computations was made in model cases. These results are significant in that they supplement the only reported gas-phase experimental study of this type of reaction. The reaction rates of thiirane with secondary amines can best be rationalized by means of an interplay of steric and polarizability effects. While beta-halo substituents retard S(N)2 reactions in solution, both 2-fluorothiirane and its acyclic model react more than l0(6) times faster with NH3 than the unsubstituted compounds in the gas phase. 2-Fluorothiirane was calculated to react with NH3 at C2 by a factor of 0.142 with respect to thiirane itself; attack at C3 was found to be 3.42 x 10(6) times faster than the parent compound. 2-Methylthirane reacts with NH3 at 0. 230 the rate of thiirane with a 12.8-fold regioselectivity for C3. In the reaction of 2,2-dimethylthirane and NH3, this preference for C3 increases to a factor of 124. Ground-state destabilization of cis-2,3-dimethylthiirane is sufficient to account for its calculated rate acceleration with respect to the trans isomer.     

An MO study of regioselective amine addition to ortho-quinones relevant to melanogenesis

Energy profiles for alternative intramolecular cyclisations of 4-(aminoalkyl)-ortho-quinones have been calculated using the AM1 method and ab initio energies of the transition states are determined. In all the cases cyclisation at position 5 occurs via a significantly lower energy transition state than cyclisation at position 3. This is consistent with experimental observations. Optimal trajectories for attack have been determined from a study of the reactions of methylamine with 4-methyl-ortho-quinone. For cyclisation of aminoalkyl derivatives deviation from the optimal direction is less for reaction at position 5 but constraint on angle of attack only partially accounts for the regioselectivity. Intrinsic differences in the electronic energies of the alternative transition states are the main contributor to regioselectivity. The relative energies of transition states can be modified by variation of the substituent at position 4. The calculations suggest that seven-membered ring formation may occur via a boat transition state and steric hindrance in the seven-membered transition states may account for the experimentally observed influence of N-substituents on the mode of reaction.     

The Microwave-Assisted Dehydrative Cyclization of Thiosemicarbazides Forming Substituted 1,2,4-Triazoles

Different types of 4,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones were prepared by microwave irradiation as well as by a classical method. The beneficial effect of microwave irradiation on the dehydrative cyclization of thiosemicarbazides in different reaction media is described. Our results show that the effect of microwave irradiation on the reaction studied was the shortening of reaction times (from 2–9 h to 2–4 min) and a minor decrease (1–4%) in yields. The structure of the new compounds was established by FTIR, MS, and ¹H NMR spectral data.     

Mechanism of the reaction of 2-methoxybenzo[d][1,3,2]dioxaphosphinin-4-one with chloral by quantum-chemical calculations

Quantum-chemical calculations of various stereoisomers, intermediates, and transition states of the reaction of 2-methoxybenzo[d][1,3,2]dioxaphosphinin-4-one with chloral, leading to formation of 2-methoxy-3-(trichloromethyl)benzo[e[1,4,2 ⁵]dioxaphosphepin-2,5-dione, were carried out by the density functional theory (DFT) method with the PBE functional and Triple z basis, using the Priroda program. The first step of the reaction is [1+2] cycloaddition of phosphorus to the chloral C=O bond to form an intermediate with a five-coordinate phosphorus atom via a transition state in which the positive and negative charges are strongly localized on phosphorus and chloral oxygen, respectively. Calculations of the internal reaction coordinate from all transition states were carried out.     

Mössbauer Studies on Spin State of the Thermal Decomposition of Substituted Tris (2-Pyridylimine) Iron (II) Thiocyanate

The spin states of iron (II) in FeL₂(NCS)₂ produced from the thermal decomposition of FeL₈(NCS)₂ (L=2-py-CR₁=NR₂, R₁ or R₂=H, Me(CH₃), Ph) under nitrogen atmosphere are investigated by means of Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetic measurements. It was found that the spin states of iron (II) in substitutited bis (2-pyridylimine) iron (II) thiocyanate are included: intermediate-spin (³T₁, S=1), mixed-spin of ⁵T₂(S=2)+³T₁ and spin incomplete transition of ⁵T₂?³T₁.     

Retrieval and analysis of transition states in electrophilic substitution reactions of the carborane(12) series

The transition states of the reaction of electrophilic substitution in a series of ortho-, meta-, and para-carboranes were found by calculations in the B3PW91/6-31G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) approximations. The key role of catalyst was demonstrated in the reactions of halogenation and alkylation. The reaction selectivity of electrophilic alkylation by CH₃Br in the presence of AlCl₃ should be lower than that of the chlorination reaction.     

Structures, spectroscopic properties and redox potentials of quaterpyridyl Ru(II) photosensitizer and its derivatives for solar energy cell: a density functional study

Scalar relativistic density functional theory (DFT) has been used to explore the spectroscopic and redox properties of Ruthenium-type photovoltaic sensitizers, trans-[Ru((R)L)(NCS)(2)] ((R)L = 4,4'-di-R-4',4'-bis(carboxylic acid)-2,2' : 6',2' : 6',2'-quaterpyridine, R = H (1), Me (2), (t)Bu (3) and COOH (4); (R)L = 4,4'-di-R-4',4'-bis(carboxylic acid)-cycloquaterpyridine, R = COOH (5)). The geometries of the molecular ground, univalent cationic and triplet excited states of 1-5 were optimized. In complexes 1-4, the quaterpyridine ligand retains its planarity in the molecular, cationic and excited states, although the C≡N-Ru angle representing the SCN → Ru coordination approaches 180° in the univalent cationic and triplet excited states. The theoretically designed complex 5 displays a curved cycloquaterpyridine ligand with significantly distorted SCN → Ru coordination. The electron spin density distributions reveal that one electron is removed from the Ru/NCS moieties upon oxidation and the triplet excited state is due to the Ru/NCS → polypyridine charge transfer (MLCT/L'LCT). The experimental absorption spectra were well reproduced by the time-dependent DFT calculations. In the visible region, two MLCT/L'LCT absorption bands were calculated to be at 652 and 506 nm for 3, agreeing with experimental values of 637 and 515 nm, respectively. The replacement of the R- group with -COOH stabilizes the lower-energy unoccupied orbitals of π* character in the quaterpyridine ligand in 4. This results in a large red shift for these two MLCT/L'LCT bands. In contrast, the lower-energy MLCT/L'LCT peak of 5 nearly disappears due to the introduction of cycloquaterpyridine ligand. The higher energy bands in 5 however become broader and more intense. As far as absorption in the visible region is concerned, the theoretically designed 5 may be a very promising sensitizer for DSSC. In addition, the redox potentials of 1-5 were calculated and discussed, in conjunction with photosensitizers such as cis-[Ru(L(1))(2)(X)(2)] (L(1) = 4,4'-bis(carboxylic acid)-2,2'-bipyridine; X = NCS(-) (6), Cl(-) (7) and CN(-) (8)), cis-[Ru(L(1)')(2)(NCS)(2)] (L(1)' = 4,7-bis(carboxylic acid)-1,10-phenanthroline, 9), [NH(4)][Ru(L(2))(NCS)(3)] (L(2) = 4,4',4'-tris(carboxylic acid)-2,2' : 6',2'-terpyridine, 10) and [Ru(L(2))(NCS)(3)](-) (11).     

Theoretical studies on structures and spectroscopic properties of photoelectrochemical cell ruthenium sensitizers, [Ru(Hmtcterpy)(NCS)3]n- (m = 0, 1, 2, and 3; n = 4, 3, 2, and 1)

A series of ruthenium(II) complexes, [Ru(tcterpy)(NCS)3](4-) (0H), [Ru(Htcterpy)(NCS)3](3-) (1H), [Ru(H2tcterpy)(NCS)3](2-) (2H), and [Ru(H3tcterpy)(NCS)3](-) (3H) (tcterpy = 4,4',4'-tricarboxy-2,2':6',2'-terpyridine), are investigated theoretically to explore their electronic structures and spectroscopic properties. The geometry structures of the complexes in the ground and excited states are optimized by the density functional theory and single-excitation configuration interaction methods, respectively. The absorption and emission spectra of the complexes in gas phase and solutions (ethanol and water) are predicted at the TDDFT(B3LYP) level. The calculations indicate that the protonation effect slightly affects the geometry structures of the complexes in the ground and excited states but leads to significant change in the electronic structures. In cases of both absorptions and emissions, the energy levels of HOMOs and LUMOs for 0H-3H decrease dramatically as a result of the introduction of the COOH groups. The protonation much stabilizes the unoccupied orbitals with respect to the occupied orbitals. Thus, both the absorptions and emissions are red-shifted from 0H to 3H. The phosphorescence of 0H-3H are attributed to tcterpyridine --> d(Ru)/NCS ((3)MLCT/(3)LLCT) transitions. The solvent media can influence the molecular orbital distribution of the complexes; as a consequence, the spectra calculated in the presence of the solvent are in good agreement with the experimental results. The MLCT/LLCT absorptions of 0H in ethanol and water are red-shifted relative to that in the gas phase. However, the MLCT/LLCT absorptions of the protonated complexes (1H-3H) are blue-shifted in ethanol and water with respect to the gas phase. Similarly, the solvent effect causes a blue-shift of the phosphorescent emission for 0H-3H.
