Coordination of 2,2'-bipyridyl and 1,10-phenanthroline to yttrium and lanthanum complexes based on a scorpionate ligand

Reaction of yttrium and lanthanum trichloride with 1 equiv of sodium or potassium hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate and 1 equiv of 2,2'-bipyridine gives good yields of the complexes [MCl(2)(Tp(Me2))(C(10)H(8)N(2))] (M = Y (1), La (2)). The analogous compounds with 1,10-phenanthroline, [MCl(2)(Tp(Me2))(C(12)H(8)N(2))] (M = Y (3), La (4)), have been obtained by a similar procedure. The solid-state structures of 2-4 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and revealed that the compounds are all seven-coordinate with capped octahedral geometry. In contrast, reaction of yttrium trichloride with 1 equiv of sodium hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate in the presence of 1 equiv of neocuproine affords [YCl(3)(Tp(Me2))][Na(neoc)(3))] (5). Compounds 1 and 2 provide an entry for the synthesis of complexes containing the bipyridyl ligand in a radical anionic form or in a dianionic form. Reaction of 1 and 2 with an excess of sodium amalgam gives [Y(Tp(Me2))(bipy)(THF)(2)] (6) and [La(Tp(Me2))(2)(bipy)] (7), respectively. The structures of both compounds have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Compound 7 can be oxidized with iodine to give [La(Tp(Me2))(2)(bipy)]I (8).     

Reaction of cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide with azobenzene. Synthesis and molecular and crystal structure of the binuclear complex [C5H5(THF)Lu(μ−η2:η2−PhN—NPh)]2(THF)2 and its dynamic behavior in solution

The reaction of the cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide, C₅H₅Lu(C₁₄H₁₀)²⁻(THF)₂ (1), with azobenzene yielded the [C₅H₅(THF)Lu(μ−η²:η²−PhN—NPh)]₂(THF)₂ (2) binuclear complex. The structure of the reaction product was established by X-ray structural analysis. The dynamic behavior of complex2 in a THF-d₈ solution was studied by¹H NMR spectroscopy in the temperature range of 265–330 K. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Lutetium complexes with the 1,3-diphenylcyclopentadienyl ligand. Syntheses and molecular structures of the complexes {(Ph2C5H3)Lu(C2Ph4)(THF)} and {(Ph2C5H3)LuCl2(THF)3}

The reaction of LuCl₃(THF)₃ with Na(1,3-Ph₂C₅H₃) followed by the in situ reaction with Na₂[Ph₄C₂] produced (1,3-Ph₂C₅H₃)Lu(Ph₄C₂)(THF) (1). The structure of 1 was established by X-ray diffraction. In the crystal structure of 1, the bis-allyl η⁶-coordination of the tetraphenylethylene dianion to the lutetium cation was observed. The structures of (1,3-Ph₂C₅H₃)LuCl₂(THF)₃ and (C₅H₅)LuCl₂(THF)₃ were determined by X-ray diffraction. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

On random coefficient INAR(1) processes

The random coefficient integer-valued autoregressive process was introduced by Zheng,Basawa,and Datta in 2007.In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of this model(in particular,weak limits of extreme values and the growth rate of partial sums) in the case where the additive term in the underlying random linear recursion belongs to the domain of attraction of a stable law.     

A structural study of (1RS,2SR,3RS,4SR,5RS)‐2,4‐dibenzoyl‐1,3,5‐triphenylcyclohexan‐1‐ol chloroform hemisolvate and (1RS,2SR,3RS,4SR,5RS)‐2,4‐dibenzoyl‐1‐phenyl‐3,5‐bis(2‐methoxyphenyl)cyclohexan‐1‐ol

(1RS,2SR,3RS,4SR,5RS)‐2,4‐Dibenzoyl‐1,3,5‐triphenylcyclohexan‐1‐ol or (4‐hydroxy‐2,4,6‐triphenylcyclohexane‐1,3‐diyl)bis(phenylmethanone), C₃₈H₃₂O₃, (1), is formed as a by‐product in the NaOH‐catalyzed synthesis of 1,3,5‐triphenylpentane‐1,5‐dione from acetophenone and benzaldehyde. Single crystals of the chloroform hemisolvate, C₃₈H₃₂O₃·0.5CHCl₃, were grown from chloroform. The structure has triclinic (P) symmetry. One diastereomer [as a pair of (1RS,2SR,3RS,4SR,5RS)‐enantiomers] of (1) has been found in the crystal structure and confirmed by NMR studies. The dichoromethane hemisolvate has been reported previously [Zhang et al. (2007). Acta Cryst. E 63 , o4652]. (1RS,2SR,3RS,4SR,5RS)‐2,4‐Dibenzoyl‐3,5‐bis(2‐methoxyphenyl)‐1‐phenylcyclohexan‐1‐ol or [4‐hydroxy‐2,6‐bis(2‐methoxyphenyl)‐4‐phenylcyclohexane‐1,3‐diyl]bis(phenylmethanone), C₄₀H₃₆O₅, (2), is also formed as a by‐product, under the same conditions, from acetophenone and 2‐methoxybenzaldehyde. Crystals of (2) have been grown from chloroform. The structure has orthorhombic (Pca2₁) symmetry. A diastereomer of (2) possesses the same configuration as (1). In both structures, the cyclohexane ring adopts a chair conformation with all bulky groups (benzoyl, phenyl and 2‐methoxyphenyl) in equatorial positions. The molecules of (1) and (2) both display one intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond.

Spontaneous Association of the Terbium Cyclopentadienyl Complexes under Controlled Hydrolysis

Controlled hydrolysis of the terbium cyclopentadienyl complexes results in the formation of the heteroligand tetranuclear terbium complex [{Tb(η⁵-C₅H₅)}₃{Tb(THF)₃}(μ₃-Cl)(μ₂-Cl)₆(μ₄-O)] (I), the recrystallization of which from tetrahydrofuran (THF) gives solvatomorph I · 0.5THF (Ia). According to the X-ray structure analysis data (CIF files CCDC 1569329 (I) and 1569330 (Ia)), the complexes are tetrahedral with the μ₄-bridging O^2– anion at the center of the tetrahedron. The cyclopentadienyl ligand in complex I is shown to act as an “antenna” providing luminescence of the complex.     

Di‐ and triphenylacetate complexes of yttrium and europium

The significant variety in the crystal structures of rare‐earth carboxylate complexes is due to both the large coordination numbers of the rare‐earth cations and the ability of the carboxylate anions to form several types of bridges between rare‐earth metal atoms. Therefore, these complexes are represented by mono‐, di‐ and polynuclear complexes, and by coordination polymers. The interaction of LnCl₃(thf)_x (Ln = Eu or Y; thf is tetrahydrofuran) with sodium or diethylammonium diphenylacetate in methanol followed by recrystallization from a DME/THF/hexane solvent mixture (DME is 1,2‐dimethoxyethane) leads to crystals of the non‐isomorphic dinuclear complexes tetrakis(μ‐2,2‐diphenylacetato)‐κ⁴O:O′;κ³O,O′:O′;κ³O:O,O′‐bis[(1,2‐dimethoxyethane‐κ²O,O′)(2,2‐diphenylacetato‐κ²O,O′)europium(III)], [Eu(C₁₄H₁₁O₂)₆(C₄H₁₀O₂)₂], (I), and tetrakis(μ‐2,2‐diphenylacetato)‐κ⁴O:O′;κ³O,O′:O′;κ³O:O,O′‐bis[(1,2‐dimethoxyethane‐κ²O,O′)(2,2‐diphenylacetato‐κ²O,O′)yttrium(III)], [Y(C₁₄H₁₁O₂)₆(C₄H₁₀O₂)₂], (II), possessing monoclinic (P2₁/c) symmetry. The [Ln(Ph₂CHCOO)₃(dme)]₂ molecule (Ln = Eu or Y) lies on an inversion centre and exhibits three different coordination modes of the diphenylacetate ligands, namely bidentate κ²O,O′‐terminal, bidentate μ₂‐κ¹O:κ¹O′‐bridging and tridentate μ₂‐κ¹O:κ²O,O′‐semibridging. The terminal and bridging ligands in (I) are disordered over two positions, with an occupancy ratio of 0.806 (2):0.194 (2). The interaction of EuCl₃(thf)₂ with Na[Ph₃CCOO] in methanol followed by crystallization from hot methanol produces crystals of tetrakis(methanol‐κO)tris(2,2,2‐triphenylacetato)‐κ⁴O:O′;κO‐europium(III) methanol disolvate, [Eu(C₁₉H₁₅O₂)₃(CH₃OH)₄]·2CH₃OH, (III)·2MeOH, with triclinic (P) symmetry. The molecule of (III) contains two O,O′‐bidentate and one O‐monodentate terminal triphenylacetate ligand. (III)·2MeOH possesses one intramolecular and four intermolecular hydrogen bonds, forming a [(III)·2MeOH]₂ dimer with two bridging methanol molecules.
