Equilibrium and structural studies of complexes with a hexadentate ligand containing amide, amine and pyridyl nitrogen donors. Crystal structures of copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(III) complexes
A novel potentially hexadentate ligand, 1,8-bis(2-pyridylcarbamoyl)-3,6-diazaoctane (pyctrien) has been synthesised as its tetrahydrochloride salt; its protonation constants and the stability constants of the copper(II) and nickel(II) chelates have been determined by potentiometry. Amide group deprotonation permits the formation of [MLH−1]+ and [MLH−2] species in all cases, whereas the detection of the neutral or the protonated species depends on the nature of the metal ions. The solid complexes of copper, nickel and cobalt with the neutral and the deprotonated ligand have been synthesised and characterised by IR and UV–VIS spectroscopy. The amidic groups are coordinated through the oxygen …
Alkyl- and aryl-substituted corroles. 5. Synthesis, physicochemical properties, and X-ray structural characterization of copper biscorroles and porphyrin-corrole dyads.
The synthesis and characterization of cofacial copper biscorroles and porphyrin-corroles linked by a biphenylenyl or anthracenyl spacer are described. The investigated compounds are represented as (BCA)Cu(2) and (BCB)Cu(2) in the case of the biscorrole (BC) derivatives and (PCA)Cu(2) and (PCB)Cu(2) in the case of porphyrin (P)-corrole (C) dyads, where A and B represent the anthracenyl and biphenylenyl bridges, respectively. A related monomeric corrole (Me(4)Ph(5)Cor)Cu and monomeric porphyrin (Me(2)Et(6)PhP)Cu that comprise the two halves of the porphyrin-corrole dyads were also studied. Electron spin resonance (ESR), (1)H NMR, and magnetic measurements data demonstrate that the copper corr…
Synthesis, characterization and X-ray crystal structures of cyclam derivatives. Part VI. Proton binding studies of a pyridine-strapped 5,12-dioxocyclam based macrobicycle
The 14-membered cyclic diamide 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-5,12-dione (5,12-dioxocyclam) can be considered as a trans-autodiprotected tetraazamacrocycle and provides a convenient starting material for the preparation of macrobicyclic receptors. As an example, the secondary amine nitrogen atoms located at the 1 and 8 positions were cross-bridged with a 1,3-pyridyl strap, affording the constrained ansa-dioxocyclam ligand 1,9,12,18,22-pentaazatricyclo[7.6.6.13,7]docosa-3,5,7(22)-triene-13,19-dione (L1). The proton binding properties of this cage-type compound, which possesses a hemispherical cavity, were fully investigated by spectroscopic (IR, NMR, UV, MALDI-TOF MS), quantum chemical, a…
Metalloporphyrins with metalmetal σ-bonds. Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, and electrochemistry of (P)MRe(CO)5 where P is the dianion of octaethylphorphyrin (OEP) or tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and M = Al, Ga, In or Tl
Abstract The synthesis, physicochemical properties, and electrochemistry of a new series of metal metal σ-bonded metalloporphyrins are reported. The investigated compounds are represented as (P)MRe(CO)5 where P is the dianion of octaethylporphyrin (OEP) or tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and M = Al, Ga, In, or Tl. These compounds provide the first examples of Al and Ga metalloporphyrins with covalent metalmetal bonds as well as give the first series of compounds in which the same metalate anion is covalently bonded to four different group 13 metalloporphyrins. Each synthesized complex was characterized by 1H NMR, IR, and UV-visible spectroscopy as well as by electrochemistry. Graham Δσ and Δπ …
Copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes of pyridylamido hexadentate ligands: chemical speciation and spectroscopic studies
Abstract Two novel potentially hexadentate ligands, 1,10-(2-bis picolinamide)-4,7-diazadecane (pycdpnen) and 1,8-bis(2-picolinamide)-3,6-dioxaoctane (pycdado) have been synthesised as their hydrochloride salt; its protonation constants and the stability constants of the copper(II) and nickel(II) chelates have been determined by potentiometry. Amide groups deprotonation permits the formation of [MLH −1 ] + species in all cases, while only pycdado gives [MLH −2 ] species. The solid complexes of copper and nickel with the neutral and the deprotonated ligands have been synthesised and characterised by IR, UV–Vis and ESR spectroscopy. The amidic groups are coordinated through the oxygen atoms in…
Structure and mixed spin state of the chloroiron(III) complex of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaphenyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin, Fe(dpp)Cl
Abstract The chloroiron(III) complex Fe(dpp)Cl (1) of the peripherally crowded 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaphenyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin or dodecaphenylporphyrin (dpp), has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, normal-coordinate structural decomposition analysis (NSD), EPR and Mossbauer spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The dpp ligand present in the crystal structure of this molecule is predominantly saddle-shaped. It is also ruffled and slightly domed according to an analysis of the out-of-plane distortions performed by using NSD. This saddle deformation is significantly smaller than those observed in the chloroiron(III) complexes of the β-p…
Synthesis and Characterization of Copper Complexes Containing the Tripodal N7 Ligand Tris{2-[(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyl}amine (=N′-(Pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-N,N-bis{2-[(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyl}ethane-1,2-diamine): Equilibrium, Spectroscopic Data, and Crystal Structures of Mono- and Trinuclear Copper(II) Complexes
The stability constants of the CuII chelates with the tripodal heptadentate ligand tris{2-[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]ethyl}amine (=N′-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-N,N-bis{2-[(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyl}ethane-1,2-diamine; tpaa), determined by potentiometry and UV spectrometry, show the formation of [Cu(tpaaH)]3+ and [Cu(tpaa)]2+ species. In the solid state, two mononuclear CuII compounds, [Cu(tpaa)](PF6)2 (1) and [Cu(tpaaH)](ClO4)3⋅H2O (2), and one trinuclear [Cu3(tpaa)2(ClO4)2](ClO4)4⋅2 H2O (3) complex were isolated and characterized by IR, UV/VIS, and EPR spectroscopy. An X-ray structure of the mononuclear protonated complex 2 shows that the Cu2+ ion has a distorted square-pyramidal geometry (τ=…
New Synthesis oftrans-Disubstituted Cyclam Macrocycles – Elucidation of the Disubstitution Mechanism on the Basis of X-ray Data and Molecular Modeling
A new way to synthesize trans-disubstituted cyclam tetraazamacrocycles 1 is reported. The synthesis proceeds in three steps via the tricyclic 1,4,8,11-tetraazatricyclo[9.3.1.14,8]hexadecane system 2, which can be selectively dialkylated and hydrolyzed under basic conditions to give the final product 1. An understanding of the reactivity, based on the X-ray experimental electrostatic potential and molecular modeling of the 1,4,8,11-tetraazatricyclo[9.3.1.14,8]hexadecane macrotricycle, has permitted the elucidation of a new reaction pathway leading to the trans-disubstituted cyclam.
Migration Reactivities of σ-Bonded Ligands of Organoiron and Organocobalt Porphyrins Depending on Different High Oxidation States
Migration reactivities of sigma-bonded organo-iron and -cobalt porphyrins were examined as a function of the compound oxidation state. Migration rates were determined for both the one-electron and two-electron oxidized species produced in the electron-transfer oxidation with different oxidants in acetonitrile at 298 K. The investigated compounds are represented as [(OETPP)Fe(R)](n)()(+), where n = 1 or 2, OETPP = the dianion of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin, and R = C(6)H(5), 3,5-C(6)F(2)H(3), or C(6)F(5), and as [(TPP)Co(R)](n)()(+), where n = 1 or 2, TPP = the dianion of 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin, and R = CH(3) or C(6)H(5). The rapid two-electron oxid…
Cobalt complex based on cyclam for reversible binding of nitric oxide
We report the synthesis and theoretical calculations of nitrosyl cobalt complexes based on saturated tetraazamacrocycle for the reversible binding of nitric oxide (NO). Density-functional theory provides a rigorous theoretical framework for analysing, interpreting and investigating important parameters in order to further tune the properties of these complexes to the target application. We focus on understanding the stability of complexes in methanol solution as well as their reactivity and stability evolution in the presence of NO, O2 and higher nitrogen oxides intermediates. Calculations have been used to explore appropriate combinations of different macrocycles, metal centres and ligands…
The 5/2,3/2 Spin Admixture in the Chloroiron(III) Derivative of the Sterically Crowded 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-Octaethyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin
Despite similar ring deformations in solution and in the solid state, the chloroiron(III) derivative of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin ([FeCl(oetpp)], shown schematically) prepared in this study exhibits only a very weak quantum-mechanical admixture of spin S=3/2 (only 4-10 %) with spin S=5/2. In contrast, for the variety of [FeCl(oetpp)] studied earlier by other researchers a 40 % contribution of the S=3/2 state was found.
Mössbauer investigations of the hexachlorantimonate salt of the phenyliron 2,3,7,8,l2,13,17,18-octaethyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrinate, [Fe(oetpp)Ph]SbCl6 and X-ray structure of the phenyliron(III) precursor Fe(III)(oetpp)Ph
Abstract The phenyliron derivative, [Fe(oetpp)C6H5)]SbCl6 (2) generated in dichloromethane by oxidation of the phenyliron(III) complex, Fe(III) (oetpp)C6H5 (1) of the 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethyl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin with 1 equiv. of phenoxathiinylium hexachloroantimonate, [C12H8OS]SbCl6, was studied by Mossbauer spectroscopy. This compound exhibits an isomer shift δ of 0.13 mm s−1 and a quadrupole splitting ΔEQ of 3.23 mm s−1. The measured magnetic hyperfine pattern obtained in the temperature range 4.2–40 K in a field of 3.5 and 7 T, applied perpendicular to the γ-beam, has been consistently analyzed in the spin Hamiltonian approximation assuming an iron(IV) S=1 electronic con…
