The templating roles of ClO4 – and CF3SO3 – allow control and reversible inversion of the chirality of nucleotide-based copper(ii) helices. These results hold great potential for developing responsive materials.

Structural insight into the reaction mechanism of Pd-catalyzed nitrile hydration: Trapping the [Pd(H2O)4]2+ cation through a supramolecular complex

Abstract Four new bis(oxamato)palladate(II) complexes of formula (n-Bu4N)2[Pd(2,4,6-Me3pma)2]·2CH3CN (1), (n-Bu4N)2[Pd(2,4,6-Me3pma)2]·2CH3CONH2 (2) and (n-Bu4N)4[Pd(H2O)4][Pd(4-Xpma)2]3·2CH3CONH2 with X = Br (3) and Cl (4) (2,4,6-Me3pma = N-2,4,6-trimethylphenyloxamate, 4-Brpma = N-4-bromophenyloxamate, N-4-chlorophenyloxamate and n-Bu4N+ = tetra-n-butylammonium) have been obtained and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. All of them contain bis(oxamato)palladate(II) anions and bulky n-Bu4N+ cations, but compounds 3 and 4 have also the out of the ordinary [Pd(H2O)4]2+ inorganic cation. Acetonitrile and appealing acetamide are present as lattice molecules in compounds (1) and …

Homochiral self-assembly of biocoordination polymers: anion-triggered helicity and absolute configuration inversion

The different natures of the weakly coordinating anions – triflate or perchlorate – in the Cu2+-mediated self-assembly of cytidine monophosphate nucleotide play a fundamental role in the homochiral resolution process, yielding one-dimensional copper(II) coordination polymers of opposite helicity that can be easily inverted, in a reversible way, by changing the nature of the anion as revealed by circular dichroism experiments both in solution and in the solid state.
