Coordination chemistry of 2-(8-aminoquinolino)-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol with manganese(IV), iron(III), and cobalt(II/III):N,O-coordinated o-iminobenzosemiquinonate(1-) pi radical monoanions vs.o-iminophenolate(2-) dianions

The potentially tridentate ligand 2-(8-aminoquinolino)-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol, H[1LAP], has been synthesized and its coordination chemistry with Mn(IV), Fe(III), and Co(III) has been investigated by X-ray crystallography, electro- and magnetochemistry, electronic, Mossbauer and EPR spectroscopies. The following complexes have been prepared [MnIV(1LAP-H)2](1), St=3/2; [MnIV(1LAP-H)(1LISQ)](PF6).CH2Cl2 (2), St= 1; [FeIII(1LISQ)2](ClO4).0.5H2O (3), St=1/2; [FeIII(1LISQ)(3,5-dtcat)]2 (4), St= 0; K[CoII(1LISQ)(1LIBQ)](NCS)2 (5), St= 1; [CoIII2(NCS)2(1LAP-H)2(AQ)] (6), St=0, where (1LAP-H)2- corresponds to the o-iminophenolate(2-) dianion, (1LISQ)- is the o-iminobenzosemiquinonate(1-) pi radical derivative of the ligand H[1LAP], (1LIBQ)0 is the neutral iminobenzoquinone ligand, and 3,5-dtcat is 3,5-di-tert-butylcatecholate(2-) and N,N-coordinated (AQ) is 8-aminoquinoline. It is shown that the pi radical anions in 2, 3, 4 couple antiferromagnetically to the respective paramagnetic metal ion. Complex 4 is a dinuclear neutral complex with weak antiferromagnetic coupling between two [FeIII1LISQ)(3,5-dtcat)] halves. The asymmetrically ligated complex 6 contains two bridging (1LAP-H)2- ligands and two diamagnetic CoIII ions. In contrast, 5 is correctly described as [CoII(1LISQ)(1LIBQ)]+ rather than [CoIII(1LISQ)2]+ since it possesses a temperature-independent magnetic moment of mueff(10-298 K)= 3.0 muB indicating an St=1 ground state which is attained via strong antiferromagnetic coupling (|J> or =200 cm(-1)) between a high spin cobalt(II) ion (SCo=3/2) and a single pi radical anion (Srad=1/2).     

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Mono-and Binuclear Copper(Ⅱ) Mixed-ligand Complexes Involving Schiff Base

1 INTRODUCTION The chemistry of copper compounds has been extensively investigated and the relationship be- tween structure and reactivity, ranging from indus- trial catalysis to biochemistry activity, is of major importance. For binuclear copper(II) complexes equa- torially bridged by pair of hydroxide[1] or alkoxide[2, 3] groups, satisfactory linear correlation is found be- tween the Cu–O–Cu bridging angle and spin coupling between the metal centers. However, for binuclear copper(I…     

Synthesis of new 1,3-bis（phenylethynyl）disilazanes

Three new 1,3-bis(phenylethynyl)disilazanes were synthesized from the reaction of 1,3-dichlorodisilazanes with (phenylethy- nyl)lithium,and characterized by infrared (IR) spectra,nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS).     

Intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions of optically active allenic ketones: chirality transfer in the preparation of substituted oxa-bridged octalones

The intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of allenic ketones containing a furyl unit (IMDAF) to generate oxatricyclic systems in good yields is described. The alkene dienophiles 1ab give poor yields of the cycloadducts 2ab, presumably due to the facile retro Diels-Alder reaction. However, the analogous allenic dienophile 7 afforded the desired cycloadduct 8 in 91% yield on treatment with dimethylaluminum chloride. When the allene bears an alkyl substituent on the terminal carbon, complete diastereoselectivity is seen in the IMDAF, e.g. cyclization of 14 gave only the cycloadduct 15 in 80% yield presumably due to greater steric hindrance in the transition state II as compared to that in I. Finally we report complete chirality transfer of the stereochemistry of an allene to the carbon framework of the oxatricyclic system. Thus, the optically active allenic ketone 20 afforded only the desired cycloadduct 21 with the correct absolute stereochemistry needed for the synthesis of the arisugacin class of natural products.     

Complexation mechanism of olefin with silver ions dissolved in a polymer matrix and its effect on facilitated olefin transport

Remarkable separation performance of olefin/paraffin mixtures was previously reported by facilitated olefin transport through silver-based polymer electrolyte membranes. The mechanism of facilitated olefin transport in solid membranes of AgCF3SO3 dissolved in poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) is investigated. In silver polymer electrolyte membranes, only free anions are present up to the 2:1 mole ratio of [C=O]:[Ag], and ion pairs start to form at a ratio of 1:1, followed by higher-order ionic aggregates above a ratio of 1:2. At silver concentrations above 3:1, the propylene permeance increases almost linearly with the total silver concentration, unexpectedly, regardless of the silver ionic constituents. It was also found that all the silver constituents, including ion pairs and higher order ionic aggregates, were completely redissolved into free anions under the propylene environment; this suggests that propylene can be a good ligand for the silver cation. From these experimental findings, a new mechanism for the complexation reaction between propylenes and silver salts in silver-polymer electrolytes was proposed. The new mechanism is consistent with the linearity between the propylene permeance and the total silver concentration regardless of the kind of the silver constituents. Therefore, the facilitated propylene transport through silver-polymer electrolytes may be associated mainly with the silver cation weakly coordinated with both carbonyl oxygen atoms and propylene.

Synthesis, Structure and Conductivity of the New Charge-transfer Salt (ET)_2(CH_2=CH-CH_2-SO_3)·H_2O

ET is one of the most famous electron-donor molecules, which forms charge-transfer complexes (abbr. CT-complexes) with various types of counterions. These complexes have received intense attention because a wide range of physical properties such as conductivity and superconductivity1, ferromagnetism2-4 and nonlinear optical properties5 was found in these materials. Although the majority of the ET-based CT-complexes were prepared by combining with inorganic counterions, CT-complexes with o…
