Metallomacrocycle (MacM) complex with cyanide as bridged ligand: Electronic structures of [MacMCN]n

The electronic structures of complexes and one‐dimensional metallomacrocycles with cyanide as bridged ligand, such as [MacM(CN)₂]^? and [MacM(CN)]_n [Mac=phthalocyanine, tetrabenzoporphyrine; M=Co(III), Rh(III)] have been investigated using density functional theory. The results of this study show that the intrinsic semiconductivity properties depend on the frontier bands. The valence band is composed by the π‐macrocycle orbital. The conduction band for the cobalt polymers is a mixture of orbitals between this metal and the cyanide ligand along of the stacking direction. However, in the rhodium polymers such a band is exclusively composed of the π* system of the macrocycles. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002     

Retroracemization using new forms of Belokon's original ligand: ­intermediate NiII complexes of N‐({2‐[N‐(S)‐alkylprolylamino]phenyl}phenylmethylene)‐(S)‐phenylalanine (alkyl is 2‐picolyl, 3‐picolyl or ethyl)

In the title compounds, [N‐(phenyl{2‐[N‐(S)‐(2‐picolyl)­prolyl­amino]­phenyl}methyl­ene)‐(S)‐phenyl­alaninato]­nickel(II), [Ni(C₃₃H₃₀N₄O₃)], (I), [N‐(phenyl{2‐[N‐(S)‐(3‐picolyl)­prolyl­amino]­phenyl}methyl­ene)‐(S)‐phenyl­alaninato]­nickel(II) hemihydrate, [Ni(C₃₃H₃₀N₄O₃)]·0.5H₂O, (II), and [N‐({2‐[N‐(S)‐ethyl­prolyl­amino]­phenyl}phenyl­methyl­ene)‐(S)‐phenyl­ala­nin­ato]­nickel(II), [Ni(C₂₉H₂₉N₃O₃)], (III), the Ni^II centres have approximate square‐planar coordination geometries from N₃O donor sets. The picolyl N atoms in (I) and (II) are too remote from the metal centres to interact significantly, but the metal coordination geometries experience tetrahedral distortion and/or displacement of the metal centre from the N₃O plane. These are linked to conformational differences between the ligands of the symmetry‐independent complexes (Z′ = 2), which in turn are related to molecular packing. In (III), where a less sterically demanding ethyl group replaces the picolyl substituents, there are none of the distortions or displacements seen in (I) and (II).     

An indium(III)–water chain based on an unusual acyclic water pentamer

An in situ reaction under hydro­thermal conditions leads to the formation of the title compound, diaqua­(pyridine‐2‐carboxyl­ato)­(pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxyl­ato)indium(II) trihydrate, [In(C₆H₄NO₂)(C₇H₃NO₄)(H₂O)₂]·3H₂O, in which the central In^III atom is seven‐coordinated by one pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxyl­ate ligand, one pyridine‐2‐carboxyl­ate ligand and two water mol­ecules in a penta­gonal–bipyramidal coordination environment. An indium(III)–water chain based on an unusual water pentamer is observed.     

DFT studies on the multi‐channel reaction of CH3S+NO2

The mechanisms for the reaction of CH₃S with NO₂ are investigated at the QCISD(T)/6‐311++G(d,p)//B3LYP/6‐311++G(d,p) on both single and triple potential energy surfaces (PESs). The geometries, vibrational frequencies, and zero‐point energy (ZPE) correction of all stationary points involved in the title reaction are calculated at the B3LYP/6‐311++G(d,p) level. More accurate energies are obtained at the QCISD(T)/6‐311++G(d,p). The results show that 5 intermediates and 14 transition states are found. The reaction is more predominant on the single PES, while it is negligible on the triple PES. Without any barrier height for the whole process, the main channel of the reaction is to form CH₃SONO and then dissociate to CH₃SO+NO. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2007     

μ‐{N,N′‐Bis[2‐(dimethyl­amino)ethyl]oxamidato(2–)}‐1κ2O,O′:2κ4N,N′,N′′,N′′′‐bis­(4,4′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine‐1κ2N,N′)dinickel(II) bis­(perchlorate)

In the crystal structure of the title complex, [Ni₂(C₁₀H₂₀N₄O₂)(C₁₂H₁₂N₂)₂](ClO₄)₂ or [Ni(dmaeoxd)Ni(dmbp)₂](ClO₄)₂ {H₂dmaeoxd is N,N′‐bis­[2‐(dimethyl­amino)ethyl]oxamide and dmbp is 4,4′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine}, the deprotonated dmaeoxd²⁻ ligand is in a cis conformation and bridges two Ni^II atoms, one of which is located in a slightly distorted square‐planar environment, while the other is in an irregular octa­hedral environment. The cation is located on a twofold symmetry axis running through both Ni atoms. The dmaeoxd²⁻ ligands inter­act with each other via C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions, which results in an extended chain along the c axis.

9,9‐Dimethoxy‐7,11‐diphenyl‐2,4‐diazaspiro[5.5]undecane‐1,3,5‐trione monohydrate

Due to steric repulsions, the cyclo­hexane ring in the title compound, C₂₃H₂₄N₂O₅·H₂O, shows some bond‐length abnormalities and adopts a chair conformation. The pyrimidine and cyclo­hexane rings are approximately perpendicular to each other, and the phenyl rings are equatorial. C—H?π and N—H?O intermolecular interactions, as well as C—H?O inter‐ and intramolecular interactions, occur between the mol­ecules. In addition to van der Waals interactions, the water mol­ecule interacts with the pyrimidine­trione ring to stabilize the structure.
