Aza and cyanobridged tripodal dinuclear copper(II) complexes: Electrochemical studies and structural evidence for an original azacyanocarbanion

International audience; The reactivity of the mononuclear [Cu(TMPA)(L)] n+ complex (TMPA: tris(2-methylpyridine) amine, L: CH3CN, H2O) towards two different bridging species (tetracyanoethylene, 4,40-bipyridine) was investigated. The dinuclear complex [(mu-4,40-bipy)Cu-II(TMPA)(2)](CF3SO3)(4) (1) was synthesised and analysed by Xray diffraction (XRD). Magnetic studies revealed that this derivative displays very weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the two metal centres (2J = -0.69 cm(-1)). Solution studies (EPR spectroscopy and voltammetry) evidenced the lability of the bridged neutral bipyridine ligand in acetonitrile. The reaction of TCNE (TCNE: tetracyanoethylene) with the copper(…

“Two-Story” Calix[6]arene-Based Zinc and Copper Complexes: Structure, Properties, and O 2 Binding

International audience; A new “two-story” calix[6]arene-based ligand was synthesized, and its coordination chemistry was explored. It presents a tren cap connected to the calixarene small rim through three amido spacers. X-ray diffraction studies of its metal complexes revealed a six-coordinate ZnII complex with all of the carbonyl groups of the amido arms bound and a five-coordinate CuII complex with only one amido arm bound. These dicationic complexes were poorly responsive toward exogenous neutral donors, but the amido arms were readily displaced by small anions or deprotonated with a base to give the corresponding monocationic complexes. Cyclic voltammetry in various solvents showed a r…

Nickel precursors based on diamagnetic and paramagnetic di(imine)pyridine ligands for magnetic materials: Synthesis, X-ray structures and magnetic studies

International audience; Structural characterization and spectroscopic studies of the (2-acetyl-6-(1-TEMPO-imino)ethyl)pyridine (pat) and the 2,6-bis(1-TEMPO-imino)ethyl)pyridine (pbtMe) ligands are presented. Their electrochemical properties are also discussed. Two new nickel complexes, [NiII(dip)(CH3CN)(H2O)2](BF4)2 (1) (dip = 2,6-(di-iminepyridine)) and [NiII(pbtMe)(CH3CN)3](BF4)2 (2) have been characterized by X-ray diffraction. The reaction of 1 with the tetraethyl ammonium pentacyanopropenide salt (Et4N)(pcp) affords the new compound [NiII(pcp)(dip)(CH3CN)](pcp) (3) for which X-ray diffraction studies evidence an usual bridging μ2 coordination mode for the pentacyanopropenide anion, le…
