Compounds of general formulatrans-ArNi(PR₃)₂OAr' (R = Et, cyclohexyl; Ar = 2-MeC₆H₄, 2-FC₆H₄; Ar' = 4-FC₆H₄, 4-NO₂C₆H₄) were synthesized by the reaction of Ar'OK with cationic nickel complexes generated by treatment of ArNi(PR₃)₂Cl with TlBF₄. Syntheses of 4-fluorophenoxide complexes, ArNi(PR₃)₂OC₆H₄F-4, additionally give some quantities oftrans-[ArNi(PR₃)₂OC₆H₄F-4][HOC₆H₄F-4] adducts. Exchange reactions MeC₆H₄Ni(PEt₃)₂OC₆H₄F-4 + XC₆H₄OH 2-MeC₆H₄Ni(PEt₃)₂OC₆H₄X + 4-FC₆H₄OH were studied in THF. The equilibrium is shifted to the right as the acidity of ArOH increases. A linear relationship between lgK _eq and pK _a of XC₆H₄OH in DMSO was found. A conclusion concerning the strong polarization of the Ni-O bond was made on the basis of an analysis of the chemical shifts of fluorine atoms in 2-MeC₆H₄Ni(PEt₃)₂OC₆H₄F-4.Translated fromIvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Crystal Structure and Characterization of 2-N-(2-Hydroxy-benzylidene) Furanmethanoamine Nickel(II) Complex

1 INTRODUCTION Recently, the low-spin square-planar nickel(II) complexes and high-spin octahedral nickel(II) complexes with Schiff base ligands have received much attention in optical materials[1～3]. Some nic- kel(II) complexes are widely used as lubricating oil, rubber industry additives, a fire-resistant additive and fungicide for leather[4～7]. Also, their adducts with nitrogen have attracted broad attention due to their potential applications as organic conductors and magnetic mate…     

Structures and magnetic properties of tetranuclear nickel(II) complexes with unusual mu3-1,1,3 azido bridges

Pyrazolate-based dinucleating ligands with thioether-containing chelate arms have been used for the synthesis of a family of novel tetranuclear nickel(II) complexes [L2Ni4(N3)3(O2CR)](ClO4)2 that incorporate three azido bridges and one carboxylate (R = Me, Ph). Molecular structures have been elucidated by X-ray crystallography in four cases, revealing Ni4 cores with a unique topology in which two of the azido ligands adopt an unusual mu3-1,1,3 bridging mode. The compounds were further characterized by mass spectrometry, IR spectroscopy, and variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements. Magnetic data analyses indicate a combination of significant intramolecular ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic exchange interactions that give rise to an overall S(T) = 0 ground state. The sign and the magnitude of the individual couplings have been rationalized in the framework of the common magnetostructural correlations for end-to-end and end-on azido linkages, suggesting that these correlations also remain valid for the respective fragments of multiply bridging mu3-1,1,3 azido ligands.     

Oxidation of ascorbic acid in the presence of phthalocyanine metal complexes. Chemical aspects of catalytic anticancer therapy. 1. Catalysis of oxidation by cobalt octacarboxyphthalocyanine

The kinetics of oxidation of ascorbic acid in the presence of cobalt octa-4,5-carboxyphthalocyanine sodium salt (Teraphthal) was studied. A kinetic equation was obtained and a scheme of the process was proposed. According to the scheme, the first stage is the formation of a complex of the catalyst with dioxygen, and the limiting stage is the reaction of dioxygen with the ascorbate monoanion. The influence of the pH of the medium and the presence of a transport protein (albumin) on the state and catalytic activity of Teraphthal was studied. The involvement of hydrogen peroxide and oxygen-centered radicals in the catalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid was proved.     

Mechanism of Reppe's nickel-catalyzed ethyne tetramerization to cyclooctatetraene: a DFT study

In this B3 LYP model study, homoleptic nickel(0) ethyne complexes have been predicted as the catalyst resting state for the title reaction. Ethyne ligand coupling of Ni(C(2)H(2))(3) yields monoethyne nickelacyclopentadiene in the rate-determining step. Ethyne coordination is followed by insertion of an ethyne ligand into the Ni--C sigma bond. A highly strained monoethyne trans-nickelacycloheptatriene is formed. This trans intermediate is unable to reductively eliminate benzene without prior isomerization to a cis-structure. Instead, it rapidly collapses to a nickelacyclononatetraene. Ethyne coordination induces reductive elimination to the cyclooctatetraene complex Ni(eta(2)-C(2)H(2))(eta(2)-C(8)H(8)), followed by facile ligand exchange. Other ethyne coupling pathways have been computed to be less favored. The cyclooctatetraene ligand binds significantly weaker to nickel(0) than ethyne, both for mononuclear, and for dinuclear species. For this reason, C--C bond formation steps at Ni(2)(micro-cot) fragments have been predicted to feature prohibitively high overall reaction barriers.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Mixed-Ligand Ni(II) Complex of N-(1-Phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzylidene-5-pyrazolone) p-Nitrobezoylhydrazide and Pyridine

A novel mixed-ligand nickel complex, [Ni(PMBP—PNH) (Py)₃], [PMBP—PNH=N-(1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzylidene-5-pyrazolone) p-nitrobezoylhydrazide; Py = pyridine], has been synthesized by the hydrothermal method and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum, thermal analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The X-ray diffraction reveals that the nickel (II) ion in the title complex is in a slightly distorted octahedral arrangement of the ONO donor atoms of primary ligand PMBP-PNH and three N-donor atoms in the secondary ligand pyridine.     

Koordinative Verankerung von Nickelkomplexen an Hectorit-Schichtsilicaten mit Hilfe langkettiger Diphenylphosphinogruppen

Coordinative Anchoring of Nickel Complexes on Hectorite-Layer Silicates through long-chain Diphenylphosphine Groups The treatment of sodium and calcium hectorites with 2-diphenylphosphinoethyltriethoxysilane leads, by condensation of free hydroxyl groups, to functionalized layer silicates with long-chain diphenylphosphine groups onto which nickel chloride can be coordinated. In these modified hectorites the fourth coordination site of the tetrahedrally coordinated nickel is occupied by a labile solvent molecule. On the other hand, the complex bis(2-diphenylphosphinoethyltriethoxysilane)nickel(II) chloride prepared beforehand also reacts with sodium hectorite under condensation; but the square-planar coordination of the four stable ligands (two chloride and two phosphor atoms) is maintained. This finds its expression in a significant activity decrease in catalytic reactions as compared to the aforementioned products.     

双核金属酞菁类化合物催化脱硫机理研究Ⅳ──中心金属离子对MPc－PcM催化活性的影响

实验研究结果表明双核金属酞菁类化合物ＭＰｃ－ＰｃＭ（Ｍ＝Ｖ、Ｃｒ、Ｍｎ、Ｆｅ、Ｃｏ、Ｎｉ、Ｃｕ）是催化Ｈ＿２Ｓ液相氧化反应的良好催化剂，且其催化活性顺序为Ｃｏ＞Ｎｉ＞Ｖ＞Ｆｅ＞Ｃｕ＞Ｃｒ＞Ｍｎ．采用量子化学理论计算方法（ＩＮＤＯ／Ｓ）分析了其前线分子轨道的构成特征，结果表明这几种ＭＰｃ－ＰｃＭ的ＬＵＭＯ轨道皆为有金属离子参与形成的π轨道，但ＨＯＭＯ轨道间的差异却很大．Ｍ＝Ｃｏ、Ｎｉ、Ｃｕ、Ｃｒ时，其ＨＯＭＯ为π轨道；而Ｍ＝Ｆｅ、Ｍｎ时，其ＨＯＭＯ却为σ轨道．正是在前线分子轨道的轨道类型、共轭程度及金属轨道贡献三方面因素的协同作用下，才导致ＭＰｃ－ＰｃＭ的催化活性顺序并非按中心金属离子价电子层ｄ电子数的递变而呈现出规律性的变化．     

The magnetic behaviour of [NnBu4]4[Ni16Pd16(CO)40]: an even-electron homoleptic carbonyl-metal cluster anion displaying a J = 2 ground state

The magnetic behaviour of the even-electron [Ni16Pd16(CO)40]4- cluster, in its [NnBu4]+ salt, has been investigated by magnetometry and muon spin rotation/relaxation (muSR) spectroscopy. The susceptibility measurements show an exceptionally high magnetic moment corresponding to a total spin value J=2. This suggests a Hund filling of a quadruplet ground state, quite unique in carbonyl-metal clusters. SQUID magnetometry shows a departure from the Curie-Weiss law, for T>150 K, and strong deviation from a Brillouin behaviour of the magnetisation curves. muSR spectroscopy in zero applied field shows a temperature independent decay of the muon spin polarisation, similar to that of a purely paramagnetic system. The observed muon spin repolarisation in a moderate external longitudinal field, however, invalidates this simple picture and suggests the presence of a local anisotropy field acting on the cluster's magnetic moment. A consistent interpretation of magnetometry and muSR results implies the occurrence of an additional interaction of the cluster spin with an effective crystalline field. The inclusion of this interaction in a model Hamiltonian allows us to successfully reproduce both the susceptibility and magnetisation data.
