Tin(II) Derivatives of 2,3-Dihydroxynaphthalene
Abstract The reaction of aqueous solutions of tin(II) chloride and 2,3-dihydroxynaphthalene (H2A) gives a white precipitate of SnA. This compound has been characterized by chemical analysis, IR spectra and thermogravimetric analysis. A spectrophotometric study of tin(II) and H2A in DMF shows the formation of two species with stoichiometric ratios Sn:H2A 1:1 and 1:2.
Structure, spectroscopic and magnetic properties of a novel 1-D coordination copper(II) polymer containing BIMAM ligand [BIMAM=bis(imidazol-2-yl)methylaminomethane] and μ-1,3 squarato bridges
Abstract This paper reports the synthesis and complete characterization (structural, spectroscopic and magnetic) of [Cu(HBIMAM)Cl(C4O4)]n · (H2O)n [BIMAM = bis(imidazol-2-yl)methylaminomethane]. This compound is made of infinite chains – running along c axis – built from [CuCl(HBIMAM)]+ units bridged together by μ-O1,O3-bis(monodentate) squarate anions. Non-covalent interactions (H-bonds and π–π) drive the build-up of an infinite three-dimensional array. The coordination polyhedron about the copper(II) ion is distorted square pyramidal. The EPR spectrum is indicative of a d z 2 - y 2 ground state for the Cu(II) ions with significant contribution of d z 2 . Magnetic susceptibility measuremen…
Synthesis, properties and crystal structure of bis(metiamide)bis(isothiocyanato)nickel(II)
Abstract The crystal structure of Ni(metiamide)2(NCS)2 was determined by X-ray diffraction methods. Unlike cimetidine, which is a tridentate ligand, metiamide (C9H16N4S2): N-Methyl-N-[2-{(5-methylimidazol-4-yl)methylthio}ethyl]thiourea (which also possesses three potential donor sites) is bidentate, coordinated to the nickel atom through N(imidazole) and S(thioether) atoms. The S(thiourea) atom does not take part in the coordination; instead, the isothiocyanate ion is coordinated through nitrogen to the metal atom. The nickel atom lies on a centre of symmetry in an elongated octahedral environment: the nitrogen atoms occupy equatorial positions (NiN = 2.04 and 2.06 A) and S(thioether) atom…
A rare example of nickel(ii) chains based on a heteroscorpionate-like ligand with quadruple imidazolyl interactions
The first nickel(ii) complex with the heteroscorpionate-like bridging ligand DIMMAL (2-di1H-2-imidazolylmethylmalonate), [Ni(DIMMAL)(H2O)3]n·3nH2O (1), is a one-dimensional coordination polymer whose structure shows regular Ni(ii) chains with H-bonding inter-chain interactions and a rare example of a Quadruple Imidazolyl Embrace (QIE). The Ni(ii) chain shows a weak antiferromagnetic interaction that can be modelled with a regular S = 1 chain model including a zero field splitting with g = 2.270, J = -1.5 cm(-1) and D = -2.26 cm(-1).

Abstract This paper reports the synthesis, X-ray structure and magnetic characterization of [Mn 2 Cl(BIP) (HBIMAM)(H 2 O) 5 ]Cl 3 ·4H 2 O a novel dinuclear manganese(II) incorporating two related bis(imidazolyl)-based ligands, BIP (3,3-di(2-1 H -2-imidazolyl)propanoate) and BIMAM ( N -methyldi(1 H -2-imidazolyl)methanamine). The metal atoms in the dinuclear entity are bridged by a μ 2 -η 1 :η 1 carboxylate group (from the propionate arm of the BIP ligand) acting in an anti – anti coordination bridging mode, with an intramolecular Mn⋯Mn distance of 6.47 A. The coordination around the Mn(II) ions shows a distorted octahedral geometry for both MnClN 2 O 3 and MnN 2 O 4 chromophores. Between th…
Crystal and molecular structure of tris(mepirizole) copper(II) hexafluorophosphate [mepirizole = 4-methoxy-2-5-methoxy-3-methyl-1h-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methylpyrimidine
Abstract The X-ray crystal structure of Cu(mep)3(PF6)2 [mep = mepirizole or 4-methoxy-2-(5-methoxy-3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6 methylpyrimidine], obtained from stoichiometric quantities of mep, Cu(NO3)2 and KPF6 in water/ethanol solution was determined. The trisbidentate Cu(mep)32+ cation is observed for the first time. One of the three mep molecules is disordered over two sets of positions related by crystallographic symmetry. The mep molecules exhibit two different conformations A and B: conformation B, which is observed for the first time, derives from the usual conformation A by rotating the pyrimidine ring by 180° around the central CN bond and rotating by 180° the methoxy group bonde…

Crystal structure, spectroscopic characterisation and magnetic properties of [Cu(BIP)(N3)]·H2O (BIP=3,3-bis(2-imidazolyl)propionate), a copper(II) polymeric compound with asymmetrical μ-1,3-azido bridges
Abstract The structure and the spectroscopic and magnetic properties of [3,3-bis(2-imidazolyl)propionato]azidocopper(II) monohydrate are described. The compound is built of [Cu(BIP)N3] entities which are connected through carboxylate groups from the BIP molecules —which act as a tridentate ligand—and asymmetrical μ-1,3-azido bridges, leading to a polymeric sheet-like structure. The copper atom is involved in a CuN3ON′ chromophore and lies in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. Both electronic and EPR spectra are indicative of an essentially dx2−y2 ground state for the copper(II) ions. Magnetic susceptibility measurements in the range 1.8–200 K show very weak antiferromagnetic exchange…

Pseudohalide derivatives of manganese(II) and copper(II) complexes with mepirizole, a biologically active pyrimidyl-pyrazole ligand
Abstract The synthesis and characterization of thiocyanate and azide derivatives of mepirizole(4-methoxy-2-(5-methoxy-3-methyl-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methylpyrimidine, hereinafter L) with manganese(II) and copper(II) is reported. The compounds were characterized by IR, electronic and EPR spectra and analytical data.

Magnetic susceptibility data show that in the azide derivative the copper atoms are antiferromagnetically coupled (J = −18 cm−1), but no magnetic exchange interaction could be detected i…
Complex formation of hypoxanthine and 6-mercaptopurine with Cd(II) ion
Reaction of Cd(II) ion with hypoxanthine (H2 Y) and with 6-mercaptopurine (H2 MP) in dioxane-water (50%) leads to the formation of CdY·2H2O and Cd(HMP)2·2H2O, respectively. In methanolic medium Cd(II) and H2 MP give Cd(MP)·H2O. These compounds have been characterized by chemical analysis, IR spectra and thermogravimetric analysis. The stability constant of CdY complex at 25±0.1 °C and 1M ionic strength with NaClO4 in dioxane-water medium is log β=10.25±0.05.

Abstract This paper reports the synthesis, X-ray crystal structure and magnetic characterization of two novel copper(II) dinuclear compounds including bis(imidazolyl) ligands and oxalate anions, [Cu2(BIM)2(C2O4)2]·4H2O (1) (BIM = bis(2-imidazolyl)methane) and [Cu2(BIK)2(C2O4)2] (2) (BIK = bis(2-imidazolyl)ketone).

In both cases, the 3D framework is held together by a combination of H-bonding and aromatic-aromatic interactions provided by the convenient structural features of BIM…
