Metal complexes of a homopolymer system containing diethanolamine side group: synthesis and dielectrical behaviors

In this work, 4-diethanolaminomethyl styrene (DEAMSt) monomer was prepared by modification of 4-chloromethyl styrene with diethanolamine. The homopolymerization of styrene modificated was carried out by free radical polymerization method at 60?°C in presence of 1,4-dioxane and AIBN. The metal complexes were prepared by reaction of the homopolymer used as ligand P(DEAMSt)L^l and Ni(II), Co(II) metal ions in presence of ethanol and dilute NaOH at 65?°C for 48?h in pH 6.

The structure of modificated monomer, homopolymer used as ligand and polymer-metal complexes were characterized by (FT-IR), ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, Raman spectroscopy tecniques, elemental analysis, SEM, XRD and magnetic measurements. Their geometric structures according to magnetic measurements of Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes were estimated that have a tetrahedral structure. P(DEAMSt)L^l polymer has a transition state between amorphous and crystalline, whereas metal complexes (Co(II) and Ni(II) are with a large crystal structure. The molecular weight of P(DEAMSt)L¹ homopolymer was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The glass transition temperature (Tg) of homopolymer was measured by differantial scanning calorimeter (DSC). The thermal behaviors of both ligand and polymer-metal complexes were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and (DTA). The results obtained were compared with each other. Then, the dielectrical measurements (dielectric constant, dielectric loss and conductivity) of the ligand and polymer-metal complexes were investigated as a function of temperature and frequency. The activation energies (Ea) of the ligand and metal complexes were determined from the conductivity measurements.

手性氮磷配体与钌的配位过程的研究—原位变温 31P核磁及分子模拟计算

用原位变温 ³¹P NMR和分子模拟研究了手性氮磷配体与金属钌的配位过程。首先确定了配体及其与金属的配合物的化学位移信号分别在δ=-13.0ppm和δ=48.2ppm。配位过程在293～343K温度范围内,相继生成四配位和五配位中间体。四配位体在 ³¹P NMR上对应于30.8ppm和-15.0ppm的两个信号;五配位中间体对应于35.1ppm和-16.5ppm的两个信号;最后在343K,产物中只有六配位的配合物存在,其信号出现在48.2ppm。为了得到各种中间体的结构,用分子模拟方法进行了结构优化计算,并比较了它们的构象能。计算结果表明,四配位中间体有两种构象,能量相差9kcal·mol^-1,它们可能同时存在于平衡状态。而五配位中间体只有一种绝对优势构象,尚有一个磷原子未参与配位。六配位的钌金属配合物的结构优化结果显示,两个氯原子分别位于PNNP原子所构成平面的两侧。其构象能为162.0kcal·mol^-1,其中键角能的贡献是112.5kcal·mol^-1,而非键静电作用是-41.4kcal·mol^-1,这表明分子内的静电吸引力对于形成完全配位产物是十分有利的,但是收敛的配体分子却承受了较大的键角张力。     

Bifunctional pyridyl alcohols with the bicyclo[3.3.0]octane scaffold in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes

Some new pyridyl alcohols with the cis-bicyclo[3.3.0]octane scaffold were synthesized and used as chiral ligands for the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Ligands 4 were found to be far superior to the C₂-symmetric ligands 2 in terms of enantioselectivities. Quantitative yields and enantiomeric excesses of up to 92% were obtained when the ligand 4 was used. The carbonyl function in 4 proved to be beneficial for the high enantioselectivities in the addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Conversion of the carbonyl group into oxime or oxime ether group led to a sort of more active ligands, which catalyzed the same reaction with rate acceleration.     

Further studies on dppm-stabilized mixed-metal clusters: X-ray structure of PdPtCoCl(CO)3(μ-dppm)2 1

The metalloligated mixed-metal cluster [PdPtCo₂(CO)₇(-dppm)₂] (2) (dppm = -Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) possesses numerous potential reaction centers (e.g., metal(s), metal-metal bonds, CO, and dppm ligands) and this has previously led to an investigation of the site selectivity of reactions with nucleophiles. The exocyclic CO(CO)₄ fragment was substituted with a chloride ligand and the resulting chiral, triangular cluster PdPtCoCl(CO)₃(-dppm)₂ (4) has been structurally characterized. The Pd-Co and Pt-Co edges of this almost equilateral triangle are bridged by a dppm ligand, and two of the three carbonyls borne by the Co atom are semi-triply bridging above and below the plane of the metals. The Co(CO)₃P fragment behaves as an anionic 4-electron donor organometallic bridging group toward thed ⁹-d ⁹ Pd(I)-Pt(I) unit.

Synthesis, crystal structure of bis(arylamido)lanthanide methyl complexes and their catalytic behavior for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate

Reactions of [N(C₆H₃i-Pr₂-2,6)(SiMe₃)]₂LnCl(THF) (Ln=Nd, Yb) with two equivalents of MeLi in a mixture solution of toluene and Et₂O gave [N(C₆H₃i-Pr₂-2,6)(SiMe₃)]₂LnCH₃(μ-CH₃)Li(THF)₃·PhCH₃ (Ln=Nd (1), Yb (2)) in good isolated yields as crystalline solids. The single-crystal structural analysis of 2 revealed that the coordination geometry of ytterbium ion is best described as a distorted pseudo-tetrahedron. Both 1 and 2 are active for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate to give syndiotactic-rich and high molecular weight polymers (M_n>10⁴) with relatively narrow molecular weight distributions (M_w/M_n<2).

Surface properties of Reactive Yellow 2 immobilised pHEMA and HEMA/chitosan membranes: characterisation of their selectivity to different proteins

Poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate), pHEMA, and a composite pHEMA/chitosan networks were synthesized in the membrane form via UV initiated photo-polymerisation in the presence of an initiator ,′-azoisobutyronitrile. Reactive Yellow 2 (RY-2) was covalently immobilised as a dye–ligand onto both membranes. The polarity and surface energy of the investigated membranes were determined by contact angle measurement. The incorporation of chitosan in the pHEMA networks produced more hydrophilic surface, as indicated by contact angle analysis. The binding characteristics of lysozyme, γ-globulins, human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) to pHEMA-RY-2 and pHEMA/chitosan-RY-2 affinity membranes have been investigated from aqueous solution and their dye–ligand free forms were used as control systems. When chitosan was incorporated in the pHEMA network as a cationic polymer led to higher adsorption capacity for the lysozyme. Selective adsorption behaviour was also observed in the case of pHEMA/chitosan-RY-2 membrane for the lysozyme. The non-specific adsorptions of the lysozyme on the pHEMA and pHEMA/chitosan membranes were about 1.9 and 7.2 mg/ml, respectively. These were negligible for all others investigated proteins. The lysozyme adsorption data was analysed using the first-order and the second-order models. The first-order equation in both affinity membrane systems is the most appropriate equation to predict the adsorption capacities of the adsorbents. The adsorption isotherms well fitted the combined Langmuir–Freundlich model. A theoretical analysis has been conducted to estimate the thermodynamic contributions (changes in enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy) for the adsorption of lysozyme to both dye–ligand immobilised membranes. The adsorption capacities of both dye–ligand immobilised membranes increased with increasing the temperature while decreased with increasing the NaCl concentration. Both affinity membranes are stable when subjected to sanitization with sodium hydroxide after repeated separation–elution cycles.
