Hydrogen-Bonded Molecular Ladders and Interlaced Networks in Complexes Built of V-Shaped Molecules 4,4′-Isopropylidenediphenol or 4,4′-Oxydibenzoic Acid with 4,4′-Bipyridine

Abstract  

The title compounds, C₁₀H₈N₂·C₁₅H₁₆O₂ (1) and C₁₀H₈N₂·C₁₄H₁₀O₅ (2), were synthesized by 4,4′-bipyridyl and two similar V-shaped molecules. The two complexes both crystallized in the same space group P2₁/n with the crystal cell parameters: a = 16.0536(3) ?, b = 6.42730(1) ?, c = 21.2717(4) ?, β = 102.330°, V = 2144.21(7) ?³, Z = 4 in compound 1 and a = 7.45020(10) ?, b = 10.0784(2) ?, c = 26.9430(5) ?, β = 92.1140(10)°, V = 2021.67(6) ?³, Z = 4 in compound 2. Compound 1 forms regular molecular chains containing alternative 4,4′-bipyridyl and 4,4′-isopropylidenediphenol units; the molecular components are linked by two types of O–H···N hydrogen bonds. Additionally, every two neighboring chains are connected to be a ladder structure by means of weak C–H···O interactions. In compound 2, 4,4′-bipyridyl and 4,4′-oxydibenzoic acid first construct one-dimensional architecture by strong O–H···N hydrogen bonds, which are similar with the interactions in compound 1. Secondly, two types of weak C–H···O contacts formed between 4,4′-bipyridyl and the acid link one-dimensional chains to be interlaced three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded networks.     

Preparation and Reactivity of 4,4′-diaminostilbene-2,2′disulphonate

The precursor compound 4,4′-diaminostilbene-2,2′disulphonic acid DAS-(SO₃H)₂ was successfully deprotonated through reactions with (n-Bu₄N)(OH) and NaOH to produce the corresponding salts sodium 4,4′-diaminostilbene-2,2′disulphonate Na₂(DAS-(SO₃)₂) (1) and tetrabutylammonium 4,4′-diaminostilbene-2,2′disulphonate (n-Bu₄N)₂(DAS-(SO₃)₂) (2). The structure of (n-Bu₄N)₂(DAS-(SO₃)₂) (2) was confirmed through the use of single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound (2) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with the lattice parameters of a = 10.0645(6), b = 14.2573(9), c = 17.6053(11), and β = 94.3160(10). The reaction of Cu²⁺(aq) with (n-Bu₄N)₂(DAS-(SO₃)₂) resulted in the crystallization of the molecular organocopper cluster, [CuDAS-(SO₃)₂]₂·3H₂O (3), that resembles a molecular parallelogram as revealed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound (3) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with the lattice parameters of a = 8.8647(6), b = 10.5247(7), c = 21.2265(14), and β = 93.1730(10). Within the structure of (3) each [DAS-(SO₃)₂]²⁻ ligand is shown to bind two copper atoms through interactions with three of the five available metal binding sites.

One-Dimensional Polymers Constructed with Paddle-Wheel Dinuclear Copper(II) Bridged by 4,4′-Bipyridine

Abstract  

The coordination compound {[Cu(NAP)₂](4,4′-bpy)_1/2}·DMF (1) was prepared by the reaction of α-naphthoic acid, 4,4′-bipyridine and Copper(II) acetate hydrate in basic solution, and was fully characterized by X-ray diffraction, element analysis, FTIR and TG analysis. Crystals of compound 1 belongs to the monoclinic crystal system, space group C2/c; a = 17.460(4) ?, b = 13.928(3) ?, c = 21.240(4) ?, β = 93.83(3), V = 5153.7 ?³, Z = 8. The structure analyses of 1 show a one-dimensional chain structure where the binuclear structural units [Cu₂(NAP)₄] are bridged by 4,4′-bipyridine molecules. Furthermore, the 1D chains are assembled to form 2D supramolecular sheet by intermolecular π···π stacking interactions between naphthalene rings.     

The electronic nature of the substituents and the structure of 4,4′-dipyridilium dications. The crystal structure of N,N′-di(carbethoxymethyl)-4,4′-dipyridilium diperchlorate

The crystal structure of N,N′-di(carbethoxymethyl)-4,4′-dipyridilium diperchlorate (I) C₁₈H₂₂Cl₂N₂O₁₂ at 293 K is determined by the X-ray diffraction technique. The crystals are monoclinic, a = 5.501(1) Å, b = 26.460(5) Å, c = 8.140(2) Å, β = 100.63(3)°, space group P2₁/n, Z = 2, 2271 reflections measured (2052 reflections unique), R ₁ = 0.062, and wR2 = 0.141 for 1161 reflections with F ≥ 4σ(F). The interaction between the lone-electron pair of the carbonyl oxygen atom of the electron-withdrawing ester group and the π system of the dication manifests itself as the intramolecular O(1)?N contact (2.780 Å). In the absence of charge transfer from the counterion to the dication, this interaction contributes to the stabilization of a planar structure of the dication fragment of the molecule despite the electron-withdrawing nature of the ester groups.     

The structure of solvate [Cu2(DfH)4(4,4′-Bipy)] · 2DMF

The crystal structure of [Cu₂(DfH)₄(4,4′-Bipy)] · 2DMF prepared by the reaction of copper(II) acetate with diphenylglyoxime (DfH₂) and 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-Bipy) was established by X-ray diffraction.

The DMF molecules occupy the cavities formed by the dinuclear molecules [Cu₂(DfH)₄(4,4′-Bipy)]. The compound was characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy.

Synthesis and crystal structure of 4,4′-bis(4-pyridylethyl)biphenyl, noncovalently hydrogen bonded two-dimensional networks

A new pyridine containing compound, 4,4-bis(4-pyridylethyl)biphenyl 1, was synthesized and its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. Two kinds of two-dimensional networks linked by hydrogen bonds were obtained with different crystal solvents: 1·2H₂O, monoclinic, space group P2₁/n with a = 8.3280(10), b = 5.5990(10), c = 24.054(4) Å, = 98.79(2)°, V = 1108.4(3) ų, Z = 2, Dc = 1.200 g cm^–3, R1 = 0.0558; 1·CH₃OH·2H₂O, triclinic, space group P-1 with a = 8.3310(10), b = 12.861(2), c = 13.111(2) Å, = 64.110(10), = 75.000(10), = 83.750(10)°, V = 1220.7(3) ų, Z = 2, Dc = 1.177 g cm^–3, R1 = 0.0529. It is interesting that in the hydrate the host molecule of 1 contains an essentially flat biphenyl section, while in the methanol complex the host molecule of 1 contains a substantial twist in the center of the biphenyl section. The compounds were also characterized by NMR and FTIR spectroscopies. The ¹H and ¹³C NMR assignments for 1 were carried out by 2D NMR spectral measurements in acetonitrile-d ₃.

The complex is dimeric. The coordination around the cation is distorted square-pyramidal. Two coordination sites are occupied by the nitrogen atoms of the bipyridyl ligand, two by the phenolic oxygen and oxygen ofo-nitro group, and the fifth coordination site is occupied by the phenolic oxygen belonging to the symmetry-related molecule (1–x,–y,1–z). Both oxygens act as bridges to form the dimer. The bridging is unsymmetrical, with Li-O (phenolic)=1.84(2) Å and Li¹-O (phenolic)=2.16(2) Å (whereI=1–x,–y, 1–Z).

Abstract

The crystal and molecular structure of the mesogenic title compound (HBA) is described. Lattice parameters are: space group P1, a = 9.003(2) Å, b = 8.850(2) Å, c = 8.510(2) Å, α = 79.63(1)°, β = 65.04(1)°, γ = 87.41(1)° (at T = 299 K). The molecules contain a centre of symmetry and the phenyl rings are coplanar. In order to obtain better structural data for a comparison with its methoxy derivative (MBA) a redetermination of this structure was carried out using a new data set. The melting enthalpy of HBA is 45(2) kJmol^?1 (127.8(5)°C) its clearing enthalpy is 1.5(4) kJmol^?1 (153.2(5) °C). The fluctuation wave-length 2π/q_‖ of 27(2) Å in the nematic state can be compared with the molecular length of 31.63 Å.     

Structures of NN′-ethylenebis(monothioacetylacetoneiminato)nitrosylcobalt and NN′-ethylenebis(2-hydroxyacetophenoneiminato)nitrosylcobalt

The cobalt atoms in both [Co(NO)(sacacen)] and [Co(NO)(7-Mesalen)] {sacacenH₂ isNN-ethylenebis(monothioacetylacetoneimine) and 7-MesalenH₂ isNN-ethylenebis(2-hydroxyacetophenoneimine)} are 5-coordinate, with a tetragonal-pyramidal arrangement of donor atoms. The cobalt atom in [Co(NO)(sacacen)] lies just above the plane defined by the SNNS donor atoms of the quadridentate ligand, and the nitrosyl group occupies the apical position. A similar geometry is defined by the ONNO donor atoms and the NO group in [Co(NO)(7-Mesalen)]. The Co-N-O angles are strongly bent, as predicted from¹⁵N-nmr studies (127.2(6)°[Co(NO)(sacacen)] and 127.4(3)°[Co(NO)(7-Mesalen)]). Both nitrosyls crystallize in the monoclinic system. For [Co(NO)(sacacen)],a=8.501,b=12.673,c=13.866 Å,=95.00°,Z=4 and space groupP2₁/c. The structure was determined by the heavy-atom method, usingMo K diffractometer data, and refined by full matrix least squares toR=0.062 for 2920 observed reflections. For [Co(NO)(7-Mesalen)],a=9.461,b=13.053,c=13.456,=99.32°,Z=4 and space groupP2₁/c. The structure was determined as above toR=0.040 for 2461 observed reflections.

Crystal structure of (3,3′,4,4′-tetramethyl-1,1′-diphosphaferrocen-2-yl) carboxylic acid and its bis-[W(CO)5] complex·0.5C5H12: Conformation of 1,1′-diphosphaferrocenes

The structures of (3,3,4,4-tetramethyl-1,1-diphosphaferrocen-2-yl)carboxylic acid (1) and its bis-[W(CO)₅] pentane solvate complex (2) have been determined by X-ray analysis. The compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2₁ /n space group with Z = 4; a = 7.8404(9), b = 14.9441(16), c = 11.7730(14) Å, = 92.773(10)°, V = 1377.8(3) ų, and D_calc = 1.553 g cm^–3. The compound 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group with two complex molecules and one pentane molecule in the unit cell. Cell parameters: a = 10.7070(2), b = 12.577(2), c = 13.239(3) Å, = 84.00(2), = 77.58(1), = 66.06(1)°, V = 1591.0(5) ų, and D_calc = 2.100 g cm^–3 .The fully eclipsed conformation of the phospholyl rings with P···P secondary bonding of 3.353(1) Å is observed in 1 and a partially eclipsed conformation is found in 2. The 10 possible conformations of 1,1-diphosphaferrocenes were described as the function of conformational parameter and observed geometry of the phospholyl rings.⁷ We suppose that the earlier conclusions concerning the destabilizing nature of 1,1-diphosphaferrocene conformations with < 100° cannot be considered as general. The mode of W – P coordination, the structural changes of 1 by W(CO)₅ coordination, the structural effect of phospholyl rings substitution by the –COOH group, and hydrogen bonds are analyzed.
