π-π Stacking and Magnetic Coupling Mechanism on a Mono-nuclear Mn(Ⅱ) Complex

A new mono-nuclear Mn(Ⅱ) complex [Mn(MPT)2(NCS)(HOCH3)]ClO4(MPT = 2-methoxyl-1,10-phenanthroline) has been synthesized with 2-methoxyl-1,10-phenanthroline and thiocyanate anion as ligands,and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray crystallography.The crystal data:monoclinic system,space group P21/c with a = 12.8849(17),b = 15.684(2),c = 14.2703(19) ,β = 92.126(2)°,V = 2881.9(7) 3,Z = 4,C28H24ClMnN5O7S,Mr = 664.97,Dc = 1.533 g/cm3,F(000) = 1364 and μ = 0.679 mm-1.In the crystal,MPT functions as a bidentate ligand and Mn(Ⅱ) ion assumes a distorted octahedral geometry.In the crystal there are two types of π-π stacking interactions among the adjacent complexes,which involves 1,10-phenanthroline rings.The theoretical calculations reveal that the two types of π-π stacking resulted in a weak anti-ferromagnetic coupling with 2J =-14.68 cm-1 and a weak ferromagnetic coupling with 2J = 0.70 cm-1,respectively.The theoretical calculations also reveal that there are both spin polarization and spin delocalization in the two π-π stacking systems,and the magnetic coupling signs are unable to explain with McConnell I spin-polarization mechanism.     

Insight into the cation–anion interaction in 1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidinium lactate ionic liquid

In order to deepen the understanding of cation–anion interaction in ionic liquids (ILs), the structure and interionic interaction of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidinium lactate ([tmg][L]) ion pair, including stable configuration, hydrogen bond, frontier molecular orbital, electron density, ion interaction energy and charge transfer, are studied by using ab initio calculations. It is found that more charge-localized character of [tmg][L], especially the C1 carbocation on [tmg]⁺, and the intermolecular –NH₂-associated hydrogen bonds can substantially increase the cation–anion interaction, the interaction energy is 65.3–109.3 kJ/mol higher than that of 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ILs. It is also found that the frontier molecular orbitals, i.e., the HOMO, HOMO + 1 of [L]⁻ and the LUMO, LUMO + 1 of [tmg]⁺, can effectively interact and more charges are transferred between cation and anion. Based on the above results, the physical property of ILs is discussed.     

Theoretical and experimental 1H, 13C and 15N NMR studies of N‐alkylation of substituted tetrazolo[1,5‐a]pyridines

The ¹⁵N as well as ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts of nine substituted tetrazolopyridines and their corresponding tetrazolopyridinium salts have been determined by using NMR spectroscopy at the natural abundance level of all nuclei in CD₃CN. In this paper, we report, for the first time, the N‐alkylation reaction of electron deficient tetrazolopyridines. The treatment of tetrazolopyridines 5–13 with one equivalent of trialkyloxonium tetrafluoroborate leads to a mixture of two isomers, i.e. N3‐ and N2‐alkyl tetrazolo[1,5‐a]pyridinium salts. It has been observed that the N3‐isomer is always the major isomer, except in the case of the CF₃ substituent, where the two isomers are obtained in the same amount. The quaternary tetrazolopyridinium nitrogen N3 is shielded by around 100 ppm (parts per million) with respect to the parent tetrazolopyridine. Experimental data are interpreted by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, including solvent‐induced effects, within the conductor‐like polarizable continuum model (CPCM). Good agreements between theoretical and experimental ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR were found. The combination of multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy with gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) DFT calculations is a powerful tool in the structural elucidation for both neutral and cationic heterocycles and in the determination of the orientation of N‐alkylation of tetrazolopyridines.

Two-dimensionality of electronic structure and strong Fermi surface nesting in highly anisotropic iron-based superconductors

We perform first-principle calculations for a newly discovered iron-based superconductor, Sr₂ScFePO₃, whose blocking layer is a thick perovskite-based oxide (Sr₂ScO₃) and compare its result with those of other typical iron-based compounds, in order to make a strategy to explore iron-based compounds with higher superconducting transition temperature T_c. Consequently, we find that the thick blocking layer like Sr₂ScO₃ brings about perfectly cylindrical hole and electron Fermi surfaces. This can give much better nesting condition between disconnected Fermi surfaces compared to other types of iron-based superconductor compounds.

From a point-like to an arbitrarily shaped sample: A survey of equations for electron paramagnetic resonance signal intensity calculations

A set of original, analytical equations useful for theoretical calculation of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal intensity are presented for the multitude of sample shapes, which range from point-like, line-like, planar, rectangular, cubical, circular, cylindrical, spherical to an irregularly shaped sample. The samples can be situated at any available position within the prescribed part of the microwave cavity (a central cylinder of diameter 11 mm and length 23.5 mm, in either a Bruker single TE₁₀₂ or double TE₁₀₄ rectangular cavity, with the modulation coils situated in the left and right side cavity walls, which is connected to a X-band, field-modulated CW Bruker EPR spectrometer). The theoretical computations of EPR signal intensity can be used in the computer simulations in which: (i) the EPR signal intensity profiles are constructed; (ii) the optimal sample positions in the cavity to give a maximum value of signal intensity are found; (iii) the errors associated with sample positioning within the cavity when compared to a second sample of a different size, shape or position are studied.     

Zur Chemie von Sulfiden und Seleniden primärer Phosphane — Die (1-Hydroxyalkyl)-organyl-phosphansulfide und -selenide,neue Verbindungsklassen

Investigation into Sulfides and Selenides of Primary Phosphines — The (1-Hydroxyalkyl)-organyl-phosphine Sulfides and Selenides, New Classes of Compounds Primary phosphines react with S₈ and Se₈, respectively, forming organylphosphine monosulfides, and monoselenides, respectively, RP(X)H₂ (X = S, Se) which are well characterized by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. Organylphosphine monosulfides are detected in the reaction mixture of primary phosphines with 2,4-diaryl-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane-2,4-disulfides, too. The reaction of primary phosphines with sulfur or selenium proceeds in presence of most of the ketones without formation of any side product. The (1-hydroxyalkyl)-organyl-phosphine sulfides and selenides, respectively, RP(X)(H)C(OH)R¹R², are yielded generally in crystalline form. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of the (1-hydroxy-1-methyl-ethyl)-phenyl-phosphane sulfide (R = Ph, R¹ = R² = Me) has shown that in the crystal the molecules are chained via intermolecular O? H …? S hydrogen bridging bonds (O …? S = 328 pm). Aldehydes react with primary phosphines and sulfur forming bis(1-hydroxyalkyl)-phenyl-phosphine sulfides, RP(S)[CH(OH)R¹]₂. ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR spectroscopic investigations allow to detect and to identify stereoisomers in some cases. Quantumchemical calculations reflect correctly which of the carbonyl compounds are able to react with the organylphosphine monosulfide formed as intermediate.

Predicting Dinitrogen Activation via Transition-Metal-Involved [4+2] Cycloaddition Reaction

As the strongest triple bond in nature, the N≡N triple bond activation has always been a challenging project in chemistry. On the other hand, since the award of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1950, the Diels-Alder reaction has served as a powerful and widely applied tool in the synthesis of natural products and new materials. However, the application of the Diels-Alder reaction to dinitrogen activation remains less developed. Here we first demonstrate that a transition-metal-involved [4+2] Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction could be used to activate dinitrogen without an additional reductant by density functional theory calculations. Further study reveals that such a dinitrogen activation by 1-metalla-1,3-dienes screened out from a series of transition metal complexes (38 species) according to the effects of metal center, ligand, and substituents can become favorable both thermodynamically (with an exergonicity of 28.2 kcal mol⁻¹) and kinetically (with an activation energy as low as 13.8 kcal mol⁻¹). Our findings highlight an important application of the Diels-Alder reaction in dinitrogen activation, inviting experimental chemists’ verification.
