Synthesis and structural characterization of a tetracopper(I) complex of 2,6-(bis(3- dimethylamino)-propyliminomethyl)-4- methylthiophenolate

The compound 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenyl (1) has been made by hydrolysis of S-(2,6- diformyl-4-methylphenyl)dimethylthiocarbamate followed by oxidation with I₂. Condensation of 1 with 4 equiv. of 3-dimethylaminopropylamine and subsequent reduction with Na/benzophenone results in the sodium salt of the Schiff base binucleating ligand 2,6-(bis(3-dimethylamino)-propyliminomethyl)-4-methyl-thiophenolate (2, NaL). The ligand (L) binds 2 eq of Cu(I) and crystallizes from MeCN solution to give an air sensitive tetracopper(I) complex with the formula [Cu₄L₂(MeCN)](PF₆)₂ (3)·0.5 MeCN·0.25 MeOH as determined by X-ray crystallography. The complex contains three distorted trigonal planar and one distorted tetrahedral Cu¹ centers with Cu---S bond lengths short for their respective coordination geometries. In DMSO solution, ¹H NMR spectra of 3 reflect free ligand symmetry suggesting dissociation into dimers. Cyclic voltammetry of 3 in MeCN reveals one irreversible oxidation at 110 mV (vs SCE).     

Computational study of sulfoxides of thiacyclohexane, 4‐silathiacyclohexane, 4‐fluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane,and 4,4‐difluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane: Relative energies of conformations and sulfinyl oxygen stabilized pentacoordinate silicon in boat and twist structures

Second‐order Møller‐Plesset theory (MP2) has been used to calculate the equilibrium geometries and relative energies of the chair, 1,4‐twist, 2,5‐twist, 1,4‐boat, and 2,5‐boat conformations of thiacyclohexane 1‐oxide (tetrahydro‐2H‐thiopyran 1‐oxide), 4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide, cis‐ and trans‐4‐fluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide, and 4,4‐difluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide. At the MP2/6‐311+G(d,p) level of theory, the chair conformer of axial thiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 0.99, 5.61, 5.91, 8.57, and 7.43 kcal/mol more stable (ΔE) than its respective equatorial chair, 1,4‐twist, and 2,5‐twist conformers and 1,4‐boat and 2,5‐boat transition states. The chair conformer of equatorial thiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 4.62, 6.31, 7.56, and 7.26 kcal/mol more stable (ΔE) than its respective 1,4‐twist and 2,5‐twist conformers and 1,4‐boat and 2,5‐boat transition states. The chair conformer of axial 4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 1.79, 4.26, 3.85, and 5.71 kcal/mol more stable (ΔE) than its respective equatorial chair, 1,4‐twist, and 2,5‐twist conformers and 2,5‐boat transition state. The 2,5‐twist conformer of axial 4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is stabilized by a transannular interaction between the sulfinyl oxygen and silicon, to give trigonal bipyramidal geometry at silicon. The chair conformer of equatorial 4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 2.47, 7.90, and 8.09 kcal/mol more stable (ΔE) than its respective 1,4‐twist, and 2,5‐twist conformers and 2,5‐boat transition state. The chair conformer of axial cis‐4‐fluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 4.18 and 5.70 kcal/mol more stable than its 1,4‐twist conformer and 2,5‐boat transition state and 1.51 kcal/mol more stable than the chair conformer of equatorial cis‐4‐fluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide. The chair conformer of axial trans‐4‐fluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 5.02 and 6.11 kcal/mol more stable than its respective 1,4‐twist conformer and 2,5‐boat transition state, but is less stable than its 2,5‐twist conformer (ΔE = ?1.77 kcal/mol) and 1,4‐boat transition state (ΔE = ?1.65 kcal/mol). The 2,5‐twist conformer and 1,4‐boat conformer of axial trans‐4‐fluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide are stabilized by intramolecular coordination of the sulfinyl oxygen with silicon that results in trigonal bipyramidal geometry at silicon. The chair conformer of axial 4,4‐difluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is 3.02, 5.16, 0.90, and 6.21 kcal/mol more stable (ΔE) than its respective equatorial chair, 1,4‐twist, and 1,4‐boat conformers and 2,5‐boat transition state. The 1,4‐boat conformer of axial 4,4‐difluoro‐4‐silathiacyclohexane 1‐oxide is stabilized by a transannular coordination of the sulfinyl oxygen with silicon that results in a trigonal bipyramidal geometry at silicon. The relative energies of the conformers and transition states are discussed in terms of hyperconjugation, orbital interactions, nonbonded interactions, and intramolecular sulfinyl oxygen–silicon coordination. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis,characterization, and structure of lanthanide picrate complexes with tetramethylenesulfoxide (TMSO)

A series of complexes with composition M(pic)₃(TMSO)₃ (M=La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Er, Yb, and Y) were synthesized and characterized. The electronic absorption spectrum of the Nd complex and the emission spectrum of the Eu complex were recorded and assigned. The unique compound, Sm(pic)₃(TMSO)_2.5(EtOH)_0.5, obtained by recrystallizatiori of Sm(pic)₃(TMSO)₃ from ethanol, was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The complex crystallizes in a monoclinic cell space groupP2₁/n witha=21.809(4)Å,b=15.811(3)Å,c=12.800(3)Å and =99.87(4)°. The coordination polyhedron about the Sm center is a tricapped trigonal prism involving the three picrates, which act as bidentate ligands via the phenoxo oxygen and an oxygen of an adjacent nitro group, as well as the oxygens of two TMSO ligands. The ninth position is statistically (50%) occupied by an oxygen atom of a third TMSO ligand and an oxygen atom of an ethanol molecule.     

Bis-(2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)cyclopentadienylchlorolutetium: synthesis and dynamic behavior in solution

The new biscyclopentadienyl lutetium complex (⁵:¹-C₅H₄CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₂LuCl was synthesized by the reaction of LuCl₃(THF)₃ with lithium (2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)cyclopentadienide. Its behavior in solution was investigated by dynamic NMR spectroscopy. It was shown that the coordination of both phosphino groups to the lutetium center is retained over the whole temperature range studied. The barrier to pseudo-rotation for the trigonal bipyramid, which governs the intramolecular dynamics of this complex, was determined.

Monophenylantimony(III) Derivatives of Cyclic Dithiocarbamates; Synthesis,Spectroscopic Characterization,and Antimicrobial Study

Abstract

Some new monophenylantimony(III) compounds having the formulas have been synthesized by reaction of phenylantimony(III) dichloride with the sodium salt of cyclic dithiocarbamates in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratios. These newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, and their plausible structures have been proposed on the basis of IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C), and ESI-mass studies. Sodium salts of cyclic dithiocarbamates and their corresponding organoantimony(III) derivatives (1–8) have been screened for antimicrobial activity against E. coli, P. aeruginosa (Bacteria) and A. niger and A. flavus (Fungi).     

B2O3/ZrO2催化剂的11B MAS NMR表征

 用11B MAS NMR技术研究了B2O3/ZrO2催化剂中B2O3活性组分的存在形式及作用状态. 结果表明,B2O3在ZrO2表面以三配位BO3与四配位BO4结构单元存在. ZrO2载体的预焙烧温度和硼含量对B2O3的作用状态具有重要的影响,并改变BO3与BO4结构单元之间的比例. 催化剂表面吸附水的存在对BO4与BO3之间的分布有很大的影响,催化剂焙烧脱水至少可使部分BO4转化为BO3. BO4结构形式容易在无定形的微孔大比表面积的ZrO2表面形成; BO3结构形式却倾向于在结晶形的中孔小比表面积的ZrO2上存在.
