First synthesis and isolation of the E- and Z-isomers of some new Schiff bases. Reactions of 6-azido-5-formyl-2-pyridone with aromatic amines

Some novel Schiff bases have been prepared by reacting 6-azido-5-formyl-2-pyridone 1 with a series of aromatic amines 2a-f. 5-Arylaminomethylene-6-(E)-aryl-iminopyridones 3a-e were obtained by reaction of 1 with 2a-e at room temperature, whereas with 2f, the 6-azido-5-naphthalen-2-yl-iminomethylpyridone derivative 4 was formed. On the other hand, heating 1 with 2a-d at 140-150 degrees C yielded two sets of isomeric products, (E)-3a-d and (Z)-5a-d. Refluxing compounds (Z)-3a,c with hydroxyl-amine in methanol gave the corresponding hydroxyliminopyridones 8a,c. Heating of (E)-3a-d with excess POCl3 at reflux did not give the expected tricyclic compound 9, but rather the isomeric products (Z)-5a-d were obtained. The structures of all these products have been characterized using IR and 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy.     

Cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate-mediated reactions: Simple route to benzimidazole derivatives

The reaction of o-phenylenediamine with aromatic aldehydes in MeOH at room temperature catalyzed by cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN) afforded either 2-aryl-1-arylmethyl-1H-benz-imidazoles and/or 2-aryl-substituted benzimidazoles.     

Coordination chemistry of new ruthenium and osmium dihydroxyquinoxaline complexes

Trinuclear clusters M3(CO)12(M=Ru and Os) react with 2,3-dihydroxyquinoxaline (DQ) to give M(CO)2 (DQ) (DMSO) products. I.r. and n.m.r. spectroscopy show these complexes are trigonal bipyramidal with the two CO molecules differently bonded to the metal center; axially in the ruthenium complex and equatorially in the osmium complex. Prolonged heating of ruthenium(III) chloride with DQ gave the [Ru(DQ) (DMSO)3]Cl3 complex, the i.r. spectrum of which showed that the ligand is bonded to the metal in the catecholate form.     

Synthesis,magnetic and spectral studies of iron(III), cobalt(II,III), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of 2–formylpyridine N(4)-antipyrinylthiosemicarbazone

2–Formylpyridine N(4)-antipyrinylthiosemicarbazone and its metal complexes have been synthesized and characterized. Elemental analyses, molar conductivities, magnetic measurements and spectral (i.e., i.r., electronic, n.m.r. and e.s.r.) studies have been used to characterize the complexes. The i.r. spectra show that the thiosemicarbazones behave as bidentate or tridentate ligands either in the thione or thiolato form. Ligand field parameters have been calculated and the proposed stereochemistries are based on the various physical and spectral methods.     

Synthesis and characterization of some pyrimidine, purine, amino acid and mixed ligand complexes

Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes of barbital, thiouracil, adenine, amino acids (methionine, lysine and alanine) and some mixed ligands were prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility and ESR spectra. Coordination of the metallic centre to the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of barbital, thiouracil, amino acids and coordinate to amino group and nitrogen atom of adenine occurred. Electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements were utilized to infer the structure of the complexes which are octahedral for Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II) and tetrahedral for Mn(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) complexes. ESR spectra were observed for copper complexes with a d(x2)-(y2) ground state with small g(||) values indicating strong interaction between the ligands and their metal ions.     

Synthesis and properties of iron(II) and iron(III) complexes with 3-(α,γ-dicarboxy-n-propylidene-hydrazino)-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (DCPT)

Summary Proton-ligand formation constants ofDCPT and metal-ligand formation constants of its complexes with Fe(II) and Fe(III) have been determined potentiometrically at 10, 20, 30, and 40°C in 75% (v/v) dioxane-water at 0.10M ionic strength (KNO₃). The thermodynamic parameters G, H, and S have also been evaluated. The possibility of formingM(HL),M(HL)₂, andM(HL)₃ species was substantiated from potentiometric and electronic absorption measurements. The values of the stability constants logK _M(HL), log , and log derived from the spectrophotometric method are in good agreement with those obtained from potentiometric data. The use ofDCPT as an analytical reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of iron is discussed. The solid complexes have been characterized by chemical analysis and magnetic susceptibility, IR, NMR, and electronic spectral data.

Synthese und Eigenschaften von Eisen(II)- und Eisen(III)-Komplexen mit 3-(,-Dicarboxy-n-propylidene-hydrazino)-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazin (DCPT)

Zusammenfassung Die Bildungskonstanten sowohl vonDCPT als auch seiner Komplexe mit Fe(II) und Fe(III) wurden bei 10, 20, 30 und 40°C in Dioxan-Wasser (75% (v/v)) bei einer lonenstärke von 0.1M KNO₃ potentiometrisch bestimmt. Zusätzlich wurden die thermodynamischen Parameter G, H und S ermittelt. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit des Auftretens von Komplexen der ArtM(HL),M(HL)₂ undM(HL)₃ wurde mittels potentiometrischer und absorptionsspektroskopischer Messungen erhärtet. Nach beiden Methoden ermittelte Stabilitätkonstanten stimmen gut überein. Die Verwendung vonDCPT als analytisches Reagens zur spektrophotometrischen Eisenbestimmung wird diskutiert. Die Komplexe konnten in Substanz hergestellt werden und wurden durch chemische Analyse und über ihre magnetischen und spektroskopischen Eigenschaften charakterisiert.

     

o-hydroxyaroyl-isonicotinoyl hydrazones as chelating agents with divalent transition metal ions

Summary Two series of bivalent metal complexes of the type M(Sal)· xH₂O and M(Naph) have been synthesized; where M = Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pd and Cd, and H₂-Sal and H₂-Naph are salicylaldehyde and o-hydroxynaphthaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazones which acted as dibasic terdentate ligands. The polymeric nature and coordination sites of the complexes have been characterized by elemental, d.t.a. and t.g.a analyses, molar conductance, pH, room temperature magnetic susceptibility and spectral (i.r., ¹H n.m.r, u.v.) measurements.

A molecule of N-phthaloylglycinate is connected by van der Waals contact and H-bonds.     

Electric conductivities of S-alkylisothiouronium salts in nitrobenzene and methanol at 25, 35, and 45°C

Conductance data for dilute solutions of S-n-butylisothiouronium bromide and iodide salts as well as S-alkylisothiouronium picrates (alkyl=methyl to octyl) are reported in pure nitrobenzene and methanol at 25, 35, and 45°C. The data were analyzed using Fuoss' equation (1980) (F-80) to obtain the three adjustable parameters; molar conductance at infinite dilution _o, association constant K_A and the association distance R that minimize the standard deviation . The variation of the parameters for each solvent are discussed with the variation of both cationic and anionic size as well as with temperature. It was found that the solvent-separated ion pair model (SSIP) can be applied in methanol for the salts under investigation. The thermodynamic parameters related to ion-pair formation were calculated and interpreted. The plots of #x039B;_o vs. the reciprocal of the molecular weight M were used to separate the molar conductances into values for the individual ions.
