Infrared spectra of triorganoacyloxysilanes and their isologs

Conclusions An analysis of the IR spectra of the compounds R₃MOCOR, where R and R=CH₃, C₂H₅ or C₆H₅, testify to a competition between , p-conjugation and d–p-interaction in the M-O bond (for M=Si, Ge), and to the formation of M...O coordination bonds (for M=Sn, Pb).Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 164–166, January, 1971.     

Titanium(IV) and zirconium(IV) derivatives of tetradentate schiff bases

Summary Titanium and zirconium isopropoxides react with the tetradentate Schiff bases, I)is-salicylaldehyde-o-phenylenediimine (SBH₂ ) and bis-salicylaldehyde-p-phenylencdiimine (SBH₂) in anhydrous benzene in 1: 1 and 1 :2 molar ratios to give almost quantitative yields of M(OPr-i)₂ (SB) and M(OPr-i)2(SB)(SBH), where M = Ti or Zr and [SB]² is the anion of the corresponding Schiff base, SBH₂. The i.r. spectra of the completes have been recorded and tentative assignments for C=N and C-O stretching frequencies made.     

Synthesis and characterisation of some complexes of manganese(II) and iron(II) picrates with heterocyclic amines

Summary Complexes of manganese(II) and iron(II) picrates with various bidentate (L) and monodentate (L) heterocyclic bases have been synthesised; their compositions have been established as [ML₃]A₂ (1), [ML₂ · 2 H₂O]A₂ (2), [ML₆]A₂ (3) and [ML4 · 2 H₂O]A₂ (4), where M = Fe^II and Mn^II, L = 2,2-bipyridyl (bipy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) in (1), A = picrate anion; M = Mn^II, L = bipy and phen in (2); M = Fe^II, L = pyridine (py), 4-picoline (4-pic) and 3-picoline (3-pic) in (3); M = Mn^II, L = py, 4-pic, quinoline (quin) and 2,6-lutidine (2,6-lut) in (4) and also M = Fe^II, L = quin and 2,6-lut.     

Interaction between cobaltocenium and decamethylcobaltocenium salts and Ph3ELi (E = Si,Ge, Sn)

Reactions of cobaltocenium salts [(C₅R₅)₂Co]PF₆ (R = H, Me) with Ph3ELi (E = Si, Ge, Sn) and with Ph₂SbLi mainly follow two pathways (nucleophilic addition and one-electron reduction), yielding cobalt cyclopentadiene-cyclope ntadienyl complexes (⁴-Ph₃EC₅R₅)(⁵-C₅R₅)Co (R = H, E = Si, Ge, Sn; R = Me, E = Si) and cobaltocenes (C₅R₅)₂Co (R = H, Me), respectively. The contribution of nucleophilic addition of Ph₃ELi decreases in the order of elements Si > Ge > Sn and when hydrogen atoms are replaced by methyl groups in the initial cobaltocenium salt. Thermal decomposition of cobalt cyclopentadiene-cyclopentadienyl complexes results in substituted cobaltocenes.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya.

Rhenium complexes with π-acetylenic ligands that contain silicon,germanium, and tin

Conclusions A study was made of the reaction of CpRe(CO)₂·THF with acetylenes of type Ph₃MCCPh, where M=Si, Ge, Sn. The previously unknown acetylenic complexes of rhenium CpRe(CO)₂(-Ph₃MCCPh), where M=Si and Ge, were isolated and studied, and it was shown that these complexes can undergo partial rearrangement to compounds with phenylvinylidene ligands.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1124–1126, May, 1979.     

A spectroscopic study of atomic interactions in aryl derivatives of group iv elements

Spectroscopic features (quantitative IR, Raman, and UV spectra) are discussed for group IV (M=C, Si, Ge, Sn) aryls, mainly R₃MC₆H₅ and R₃MCH₂C₆H₅, in order to distinguish features of the intramolecular interactions. Confirmation is obtained for the existing view on the electron-acceptor behavior of heteroatoms joined to aromatic rings. The effect is seen in the IR and UV spectra, which implies that the ground and excited states are perturbed. The effect of M on the ring is shown to be an over-all one; the positive (induction) component follows the electronegativity of M in a scale close to Gordy's, while the negative one increases somewhat from Si to Ge and Sn.The effects in M aryls are analogous to those in M alkenyls, in particular the - conjugation in a phenyl radical attached to Si, which is already known for M allyls.     

Ternary Rhodium Borides A3Rh5B2 (A = Mg,Sc) and Quaternary Derivatives A2MRh5B2. Preparation,Crystal Structure (M = Main Group and 3 d Elements), and Magnetism (M = Mn,Fe)

The new ternary rhodium borides Mg₃Rh₅B₂ and Sc₃Rh₅B₂ (P4/mbm, Z = 2; a = 943.4(1) pm, c = 292.2(1) pm and a = 943.2(1) pm, c = 308.7(1) pm, respectively) crystallize with the Ti₃Co₅B₂ type structure. Mg and Sc may in part be substituted by a variety of elements M. For M = Si and Fe, homogeneity ranges were found according to A_3–xM_xRh₅B₂ with 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0 for A = Sc and with x up to 1.5 for A = Mg. Quaternary compounds with x = 1 (A₂MRh₅B₂: A/M in short) were prepared with M = Be, Al, Si, P, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge, As, Sn (Co, Ni only with A = Mg; Sn only with A = Sc; P, As with deficiencies). Single crystal X‐ray investigations show an ordered substitutional variant of the Ti₃Co₅B₂ type in which the M atoms are arranged in chains along [001] with intrachain and interchain M–M distances of about 300 pm and 660 pm, respectively. Measuring the magnetisation (1.7 K–800 K) of the phases Mg/Mn, Sc/Mn, Mg/Fe, and Sc/Fe reveals antiferromagnetic interactions in the first and dominating ferromagnetic intrachain interactions in the remaining ones. Interchain interactions of antiferromagnetic nature are evident in Sc/Mn and Mg/Fe leading to metamagnetism below T_N = 130 K, while Sc/Fe behaves ferromagnetically below T_C = 450 K. The overall trend towards stronger ferromagnetic interactions with increasing valence electron concentration is obvious.     

Metal chelates of ligands containing the ONS donor grouping,Part II. Metal chelates of schiff bases derived from β-diketones and α-N-Methyl-S-methyldithiocarbazate

Summary The Schiff bases RC(OH)=CHC(R)=NNMeC(S)SMe (R = Ph,p-MeC₆H₄, R = Me; R = R = Ph) have been prepared by condensation of -diketones with -N-methyl-S-methyldithiocarbazate. By the loss of a proton they act as singly negatively charged tridentate ligands with oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur donor atoms (ONS). Iron forms the high-spin complexes [Fe^III(ONS)₂][Fe^IIICl₄]. Copper(II), palladium(II), and platinum(II) yield the square-planar 1 : 1 complexes, M(ONS)CI (M = Cu, Pd, Pt) and Cu(ONS)NO₃. Cobalt(II) and nickel(II) form high-spin, six-coordinate 1 : 2 complexes, M(ONS)₂. For M = Ni and R = R = Ph, the complex is high-spin and octahedral, but when R = Ph orp-MeC₆ H₄ and R = Me, the complexes are diamagnetic and square-planar with nitrogen and sulphur (NS) coordinatio of the Schiff base, indicating that a change in the Rgroup can bring about a change in spin-state and stereochemistry of nickel.Part I: see ref. 1.     

Transition metal complexes of γ-mercaptoalkylpiperidines

Summary Complexes with 1-methyl-3-(mercaptomethyl)piperidine (LH) and 1-methyl-2-(2-mercaptoethyl)piperidine (LH) Ligands in their thiolato (R), andN-protonated (HR) orN-methylated (MeR) zwitterionic form, of stoichiometry MR₂ (M=Ni, R=L or L; M=Cd, R=L), MR (M=Cu or Ag, R=L and L), [Ni(MeR)₂]I₂ · nH₂O (R=L, n=1; R=L, n=2), [Ni(HR)₂]X₂ (R=L or L, X=ClO₄; R=L, X=Br), and [Ag(HR)] ClO₄ (R=L) have been prepared and characterized. According to i.r. and electronic spectra, and magnetic measurements the nickel complexes exhibit polymeric frameworks built up from mercapto-bridged metal atoms in square-planar environments. Complexes with copper, silver, and cadmium exhibit similar polymeric arrangements through bridging sulphur atoms but with a different geometry at the metal centers, the first two being mainly linear, as anticipated, and the latter tetrahedral. In no case does coordinationvia nitrogen take place and therefore these ligands behave simply as mercaptides.     

Halogen oxidation and nitrosylation of some aldimine and ketimine carbonyl complexes of chromium and molybdenum

Summary The halogen oxidation and nitrosylation of cis-[(SB)M-(CO)₄] [M = Cr or Mo, SB = N,N-ethylenebis(p-tolualideneimine), N,N-ethylenebis(p-N,N-dimethylaminobenzalideneimine) or N,N-ethylenebis(methyl-p-methoxyphenylketimine); M = Mo, SB = N,N-ethylenebis-(cinnamylideneimine) or N,N-ethylenebis(methyl-p-methylphenylketimine)] have been studied. Halogenation of [(SB)Cr(CO)₄] yielded [(SB)CrX₂] (X = Cl, Br or I) where-as [(SB)Mo(CO)₄] gave [(SB)Mo(CO)₃X₂] (X = Br or I) and [(SB)MoX _x ] (X = I, n = 2; X = Cl or Br, n = 4). NOCl produced [(SB)Cr(NO)₂Cl₂] and [(SB)Mo(CO)₂(NO)Cl] when reacted with the corresponding [(SB)M(CO)₄]. The complexes were characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic measurements.     

Diverse reactions of nitroxide-radical adducts of silylene, germylene, and stannylene

The results of the thermolysis of 1:2 adducts of stable group-14 element divalent compounds [R₂M:, R₂=1,1,4,4-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)butane-1,4-diyl; 1b, M=Ge; 1c, M=Sn] to TEMPO radical are discussed in detail. Whereas the thermal reactions of the 1:2 adducts [R₂M(OR^′)₂, R^′=2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-N-yl; 3b, M=Ge; 3c, M=Sn] are understood to proceed by the initial homolysis of an M-O bond to give the corresponding aminoxy-substituted group-14 element radicals [R₂(R^′O)M; 2b, M=Ge; 2c, M=Sn] and TEMPO, the subsequent reactions of 2b and 2c were remarkably different to each other; 2b favors the N-O bond fission (path b) to give the corresponding germanone, while 2c prefers the M-O bond fission (path a) to give stannylene (1c). In combining with our previous results for aminoxysilyl radical (2a) [R₂(R^′O)Si], the origin of the remarkable differences in the reactivity among group-14 element radicals 2a-2c is discussed on the basis of the theoretical calculations for model reactions.Improved syntheses of the precursor dichlorogermane and dichlorostannane of germylene (1b) and stannylene (1c), respectively, are described in Section 3.     

The photo-induced decarbonylation of Cp′M(NO)(CO)2 (M = Cr,Mo, W) with diorgano dichalcogenides (R2E2; E = S,Se; R = Me,Ph)

The photo-induced decarbonylation of CpCr(NO)(CO)₂ (1a) in MeCN solution in the presence of R₂E₂ (E = S, Se; R = Me, Ph) leads to the formation of chalcogenolato-bridged binuclear complexes Cp₂Cr₂(NO)₂(-ER)₂ [E = S; R = Me (2a), Ph (3a); E = Se, R = Me (4a), Ph (5a)] while reactions between CpM(NO)(CO)₂ [M = Mo (1b), W (1c)] and Ph₂E₂ (E = S, Se) result in mononuclear complexes CpM(NO)(EPh)₂ [M = Mo; E = S (9b), Se (10b); M = W, E = S (11c), Se (12c)]. The corresponding reactions of (1b) with Me₂E₂ (E = S, Se) yielded both mono and binuclear complexes: CpMo(NO)(SeMe)₂ (8b), Cp₂Mo₂(NO)₂(-EMe)₂ [E = S (6b), Se (7b)]. The new complexes have been characterized by i.r., ¹H-, ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra and by electron-impact mass spectrometry.     

New hetero-annelation reactions using N-[bis-(methylthio)-methylene]-amino and related reagents

Summary Reaction of acyclic (B _1–3) and cyclic (R _4–5)BMMA (=N-[b is-(methylthio)-methylene]-amino) reagents withGewald-type thiophene derivatives (2,3) led to annelation of pyrimidine moieties. Thus, linear thiazolo- or thiazino- and pyrrolo-, pyrido- or azepino-fused thiopyrano[4,3:4,5]thieno-[2,3-d]pyrimidines (5 and6) as well as the angular imidazo-fused thiopyrano[4,3:4,5]thieno-[2,3-d]pyrimidine8 were easily obtained from one-pot reactions in good yields.on leave from Chemistry Department, Minia University, El-Minia, Egypt     

Synthesis of molecular ferromagnetics [R3R′X]MCr(C2O4)3 (X = N,R = Bun,R′ = Prn,Et, Me; X = P,R = Ph,R′ = Bun; M = Mn,Fe, Co,Ni, Cu)

The synthesis, IR spectra, and the temperatures of the transition into a ferromagnetic state (T _c) of layered ferromagnetics [R₃RX[MCr(C₂O₄)₃ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, and Ni) with the [Ph₃BuP]⁺, [Bu₃RN]⁺ (R = Pr, Et, and Me) cations capable of subsequently changing the distances between metallooxalate layers have been considered. The temperatureT _c has been found to be independent of the size of the organic cation. It is believed that the determining factors in the transition to a ferromagnetic state are exchange interactions inside the metallooxalate layer.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Palladium and platinum guanine complexes

Summary Reaction of [MCl₂(H₄Y)] or (H₆Y)[MCl₄] compounds (M = Pd or Pt; Y = EDTA, PDTA or CDTA) with guanine (Gu-H) in 0.5 M HCl yields new complexes MCl₂(Gu-H)(H₂O which have been characterized by elemental analyses in conjunction with electronic, i.r. and n.m.r. spectra. A dimeric structure with two bridging chloride ligands, including coordination of guanine through atom N(9), is proposed for both compounds.Abbreviations used in the paper EDTA 1,2-diaminoethane-N,N,N,N-tetraacetate - PDTA 1,2-diaminopropane-N,N,N,N-tetraacetate - CDTA trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N,N-tetraacetate - Gu-H guanine - 9-EtGu-H 9-ethylguanine     

Novel asymmetric heterobimetallic complexes of transition metals and the kinetics of oxygen binding to a cobalt(II) complex

A series of asymmetric heterobimetallic complexes of the type [LMLSn]Cl and [LMLSn]Cl₂, where L = ethylene diamine, M = Mn^II, Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II, M = Cr^III and Fe^III and L = 1-tryptophan and 1-valine, have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, u.v.–vis., i.r., e.p.r., n.m.r., cyclic voltammetry and conductivity measurements. The Co^III analogue of these complexes was characterized by two dimensional n.m.r. COSY data. The kinetics of oxygen binding with the complex [C₁₅H₂₃N₄O₂SnCo]Cl has also been studied. The kinetic data proves that Co^II of a coordinated molecule participates in the rate-determining step of the dioxygen binding process. The plots of the pseudo-first-order rate k _obs versus [O₂] are linear passing through an intercept. The electrochemical behaviour of [C₁₅H₂₃N₄O₂SnCo]²⁺ and [C₁₅H₂₃N₄O₂SnCu]⁺ was monitored by cyclic voltammetry. Comparison of the electrochemical properties of [Co^IIISn^IV]²⁺ and [Cu^IISn^IV]⁺ reveal that, in both the species, one electron transfer reaction takes place. For the [Co^IIISn^IV]²⁺ species E ⁰ = 0.272 and –1.1 V and for the [Cu^IISn^IV]⁺ species E ⁰ = 0.078 and –0.300 V values were obtained, respectively.     

Etude systématique des relations entre les structures wadéite et tétragermanate

Systematic study of solid solutions with general formula A_2?xA_x′(B_1?zB_z′)Ge_3?ySi_yO₉ (A, A′ = K, Rb, Cs, Tl; B, B′ = Ge, Ti, Sn) has been carried out. These results allow us to propose a tridimensional diagram of existence of wadeite and tetragermanate structures, as a function of the sizes of A, B, Ge, and Si elements. Condition of stability based upon differences of sizes between A and M elements and B and M elements (M = Ge, Si) were found. The variation of compactness of wadeite and tetragermanate structures shows up the particular role of M element (Ge, Si).

Synthesis of dinuclear group 6 metal carbonyl complexes bridged by 4,4′-bipyrazole ligands

A series of dinuclear group 6 metal carbonyl complexes containing 4,4-bipyrazole ligands [(CO)₅M (-dpz)M(CO)₅)] have been synthesized by the photochemical reaction of 4,4-bipyrazoles with M(CO)₆ [M = Cr, Mo or W; dpz = 4,4-bis-3,5-dimethylpyrazole; 4,4-methylenebis(3,5-dimethylpyrazole)], and characterized by elemental analyses, i.r. and ¹H-n.m.r. spectra. Their electrochemical behavior, investigated by cyclic voltammetry, indicates that all complexes exhibit one quasi-reversible redox peak owing to the presence of two equivalent M(CO)₅ fragments. The crystal structure of (CO)₅W(-dpz)W(CO)₅ [dpz = 4,4-methylenebis(3,5-dimethylpyrazole)] determined by X-ray diffraction, indicates that two W(CO)₅ units are linked by the bridging bidentate ligand, and are located in a mutually cis-position. The molecules form a two-dimensional double-layer sheet by intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the N—H groups and the oxygen atoms of metal carbonyls in the solid state.
