Bis-qtpy (qtpy = 2,2':6',2'':6'',2'"-quaterpyridine) metal complexes, [M(qtpy)(2)]2+

Reactions of perchlorates of iron(II), nickel(II), and zinc(II) with 2,2':6',2':6',2'"-quaterpyridine (qtpy) gave the first crystallographically established bis-qtpy metal complexes of formula [M(qtpy)(2)][ClO(4)](2) (M = Fe, Ni, Zn). Coordination of two terdentate quaterpyridines to the same center produces a distorted octahedron of six nitrogen atoms around the metal, leaving two pendant pyridyl groups, one for each quaterpyridine. For the diamagnetic zinc system, an NMR investigation has been carried out in order to establish the conditions to obtain the intermediate mono-qtpy complex, of formula [Zn(qtpy)(H(2)O)(2)][ClO(4)](2), which has also been crystallographically established. The corresponding hexafluorophosphate derivatives [M(qtpy)(2)][PF(6)](2) (M = Ni and Zn) were prepared in DMF at room temperature.     

Pr2Br5: No mixed valence praseodymium bromide

The metallothermic reduction of praseodymium tribromide, PrBr₃, with lithium metal (molar ratio 1:1) in sealed tantalum containers at 850°C yields bronze lustrous rods of Pr₂Br₅. The crystal structure (monoclinic, P2₁/m, Z = 2, a = 774.38(4), b = 415.33(3), c = 1327.06(9) pm, β = 90.816(6)°, V_m = 128.52(2) cm³ mol^?1) contains seven- and eight-coordinate trivalent praseodymium in mono- and bicapped trigonal prisms. Pr₂Br₅ should therefore be formulated as (Pr³⁺)₂(Br^?)₅(e^?). It is isostructural with Pr₂I₅ and is believed to be identical with PrBr_2,38 reported for the Pr/PrBr₃ system.     

Synthesis and characterization of liquid crystals containing a non-activated 1' ,3' ,3'-trimethylspiro\[2H-1-benzopyran-2,2-indoline] group

Two series of mesogens derived from the non-activated spiropyran dyes 6-hydroxy-1 ,3 ,3- trimethylspiro\[2H -1-benzopyran-2,2-indoline] (series trimethylspiro\[2 H -1-benzopyran-2,2-indoline] (series 2 ) have been synthesized. Analysis by differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscopy and X-ray diffraction showed compounds in series 1 form monotropic nematic and SmA phases, while compounds in series 2 form only a monotropic nematic phase.

Chemical and photochemical synthesis of substituted dihydro-thieno[2',3':4,5]thieno[2,3-c]quinolin-6-ones and tetrahydro-dithieno[2,3-b:2',3'-d]thieno[2'',3''c:2'',3''c']diquinolin-6,14-dione

Some new substituted dihydrothieno[2',3':4,5]thieno[2,3-c]quinolin-6-ones 9- 12 and tetrahydrodithieno[2,3-b: 2',3'-d]thieno[2',3'-c:2',3'-c']diquinolin-6,14-dione (17) were prepared from the corresponding new anilides 5-8 and from the corresponding dianilide 15, respectively, by a multistep combination of chemical and photochemical reactions. All the prepared compounds are of particular interest because they might serve as DNA intercalators in anticancer therapy.     

Solid state coordination chemistry: structural consequences of variations in tether length in the oxovanadium-copper-bisterpy-[O3P(CH2)nPO3]4- system, n= 1-6 (bisterpy = 2,2':4',4'':2'',2'''-quarterpyridyl-6',6''-di-2-pyridine)

Hydrothermal reactions of Na3VO4, an appropriate Cu(II) source, bisterpy and an organodiphosphonate, H2O3P(CH2)nPO3H2 (n = 1-6) yielded a family of materials of the type [Cu2(bisterpy)]4+/VxOy(n-)/[O3P(CH2)nPO3]4-. This family of bimetallic oxides is characterized by an unusual structural diversity. The oxides [[Cu2(bisterpy)]V2O4[O3PCH2PO3H]2] (1), [[Cu2(bisterpy)(H2O)]VO2[O3P(CH2)3PO3][HO3P(CH2)3PO3H2]] (4) and [[Cu2(bisterpy)]V2O4[O3P(CH2)6PO3H]2].2H2O (7.2H2O) are one-dimensional, while [[Cu2(bisterpy)(H2O)2]V2O4[O3P(CH2)2PO3][HO3P(CH2)2PO3H]2] (2), [[Cu2(bisterpy)]V4O8[O3P(CH23PO3]2].4H2O (3.4H2O) and [[Cu2(bisterpy)]V2O4(OH)2[O3P(CH2)4PO3]].4H2O (5.4H2O) are two-dimensional. The V(IV) oxide [[Cu2(bisterpy)]V4O4[O3P(CH2)5PO3H]4].7.3H2O (6.7.3H2O) provides a relatively unusual example of a three-dimensional bimetallic oxide phosphonate. The structures reveal a variety of V/P/O substructures as building blocks.     

Conformational polymorphism and thermochemical analysis of 5,5' '-bis[(2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-1-aza-2,5-disila-1-cyclopentyl)ethyl]-2,2':5',2' ':5' ',2' '-quaterthiophene

The titled compound exists as two polymorphic solid phases (denoted form-I and form-II). Form-I obtained by as-synthesized material is a more stable phase. Form-II is a less stable phase. Spontaneous solid-solid transformation from form-II to form-I is observed in the temperature range between room temperature and the melting point of form-I (Tm = 156.5 degrees C), and its activation energy is estimated to be 96 kJ mol-1 by Arrhenius plot. The solid-solute-solid transformation (recrystallization from solution) from form-II to form-I is also observed. In contrast, form-II is obtained only by a solid-melt-solid transformation from form-I. Therefore, the system of two polymorphs is monotropic. The solid-state NMR measurement shows that form-I has the molecular conformation of complete S-syn-anti-syn in the oligothiophene backbone, whereas form-II has that of S-all-anti. With the solution NMR data, the polymorphism could not be observed. Therefore, the polymorphs originate from the different molecular packing involving the conformational change of the molecule. This unique property is attributed to the extra bulky terminal groups of the compounds. However, despite the extra bulky terminal groups, the mentioned polymorphism is not observed in the titled compound analogue which has S-all-anti conformation (like form-II).

Synthesis, characterization and thermal decomposition of thiourea complexes of antimony and bismuth triiodide

The thiourea complexes of antimony and bismuth triiodide were synthesized by a direct reaction of antimony and bismuth triiodide with thiourea powder at room temperature. The formula of the complex is MI₃[SC(NH₂)₂]₃(M=Sb, Bi). The crystal structure of the complexes belongs to monoclinic system and the lattice parameters are a=1.4772 nm, b=1.6582 nm, c=2.0674 nm and β=90.81° for SbI₃(SC(NH₂)₂)₃ and a=1.4009 nm, b=2.0170 nm, c=2.0397 nm and β=90.84° for BiI₃[SC(NH₂)₂]₃. The infrared spectra reveal that the trivalent antimony or bismuth ion is coordinated by the nitrogen atom, not the sulfur atom of the thiourea. Thermal analysis shows that there are two times structure rearrangements or phase transformation in the complexes from 100 to 170°C.
