3-Formyl-2-furanboronic acid: X-ray and DFT studies
2004
The molecule of the title compound, C5H5BO4, is almost planar with the boronic acid group inclined to the furan ring by 3.7 (1)°. DFT (density functional theory) calculations at the B3LYP/6-311+G** level of theory (with no imaginary frequencies) were used to approximate the influence of hydrogen bonding on the molecular geometry and have confirmed the planarity of the molecule. No significant differences in geometrical parameters in the solid state and in the gas phase are associated with the presence of the O—H⋯O intermolecular hydrogen-bonding network. The crystal packing is characterized by O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonded dimers, which are additionally linked by O—H⋯O, as well as C—H⋯O interactio…
Primary- and secondary-octahedral distortion factors in bis(1,4-H2-1,2,4-triazolium) pentabromidoantimonate(III) –1,4-H2-1,2,4-triazolium bromide
2015
Abstract The analysis of octahedral distortion in the structure of inorganic–organic (C2H4N3)2[SbBr5]·(C2H4N3)Br (BTPTB) bromidoantimonate(III) determined at 295 and 85 K, supported by the Hirshfeld surface analysis and the data retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database, is presented. The anionic substructure of BTPTB is built from distorted [SbBr6]3− octahedra that are connected by the cis corners forming polymeric one-dimensional [{SbBr5}n]2n− zig-zag chains running parallel to the a axis and isolated Br− ions. The organic substructure consists of the fully ordered 1,4-H2-1,2,4-triazolium cations. The oppositely charged substructures are linked by the system of N(C)–H⋯Br hydrogen b…
Crystal and molecular structure and electronic properties of [Cu(phen)2(HL)] · (phen)0.5 · 7H2O (H3L = 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione), a nove…
1998
Abstract The crystal and molecular structure of [Cu(phen)2(HL) · (phen)0.5 · 7H2O (H2L = 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione) has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The structure is built up of neutral [Cu(phen)2(HL)] entities (which are associated to form dinuclear units through hydrogen bonds involving the cyanurate ions), uncoordinated phenanthroline and crystallisation water molecules. The copper atom is involved in a CuN5 chromophore, with an stereochemistry near to a compressed trigonal bipyramid (TBP) but with a significant degree of distortion towards the square pyramidal (SP) topology. The EPR spectrum is indicative of a mixed d z 2 d x 2 −y 2 ground state for the copp…
Vibrational spectra and DFT calculations of PPV-oligomers
2003
The first two members of the p-phenylenevinylene- oligomer family (i. e. 1, 4-distyrylbenzene [DSB] and 4, 4'-distyrylstilbene [DSS]) were synthesized and their infrared and Raman spectra recorded and empirically assigned. Molecular geometries were optimized for the planar point group (C2h) by the density functional theory (DFT) method using the B3LYP functional and 6-31G* basis set. Calculations of vibrational spectra, including intensities, were carried out subsequently using the DFT method with the same basis set and linear scaling was applied. Calculated vibrational wavenumbers are in a fair agreement with our own experimental spectra. In order to explore changes in vibrational dynamics…
Hypervalent tin-organic compounds: Vibrational spectroscopy in the solid as a tool for structure determination
1997
Abstract A full set of IR- and Raman spectra down from 600 cm1 has been determined and assigned for 60 penta- or hexacoordinated tin-compounds in the groups RSn(CH2CH2CH2)3N (R = Cl, Br, I, Me), RR'Sn(MCH2CH2)2X (R,R′ = Cl, Br, I, Me, Ph, M = CH2 S; X = NMe, O, S), RPh2SnCH2CH2CH2NMe2 (R = Cl, Br, I) and RMe2Sn—CHD—COOMe (R = F, Cl, Br, I, Me). In these hypervalent compounds an approach of the donor atom X to the central atom tin outlines a ‘path’ of nucleophilic attack from a tetrahedron to a trigonal bipyramid. Along this ‘reaction path’ the bond lengths of the axial ligand increase continuously while the bond lengths of the equatorial ligands slightly decrease. The number of similar hype…
Self-Assembly of a Copper(II)-Based Metallosupramolecular Hexagon
2008
The self-assembly of a 1:1 mixture of copper(II) ions and a rigid heteroditopic ligand L containing phen and terpy binding units gives rise in the solid state to green crystals of a hexanuclear metallamacrocycle 1. X-ray crystallography reveals that 1 consists of molecular hexagons of the grid-type family in which each metal ion is bound to two different ligands through the phen and terpy units, plus a weakly coordinated PF6 (-) anion in a highly distorted octahedral geometry. ES-MS studies of acetonitrile solutions of L and copper(II) in a 1:1 ratio show mixtures of polynuclear complexes in which trinuclear L3Cu3 species are predominant.
Synthesis, reactivity and structures of ruthenium carbonyl clusters with telluride and hydride ligands
2002
The reaction of [Cp* 2 Nb(Te 2 H)] ( 1 ) (Cp*=C 5 Me 5 ) with [Ru 3 (CO) 12 ] in boiling toluene gave [Ru 3 (μ 2 -H) 2 (CO) 9 (μ 3 -Te)] ( 2 ), [Ru 6 (μ 3 -H)(CO) 15 (μ 3 -Te) 3 ][Cp* 2 Nb(CO) 2 ] ( 3 ) and [Ru 5 (μ 2 -H)(CO) 14 (μ 4 -Te)][Cp* 2 Nb(CO) 2 ] ( 4 ) along with already known [Ru 4 (CO) 11 (μ 4 -Te) 2 ] ( 5 ). Complexes 2 – 4 were analytically and spectroscopically characterized and X-ray diffraction analyses of 3 and 4 were carried out. The anion of 3 is built up of a triangular hexametallic core of C 3 v symmetry, in which the central Ru 3 triangle, being bridged by a μ 3 -H ligand, is composed of three corner-linked Ru 3 Te tetrahedra. The main structural feature of the anion …
A Bis(mu-phenoxo)-Bridged Dizinc Complex with Hydrolytic Activity
2013
The dinuclear complex [Zn2(papy)2]·2CH3OH [H2papy = N- (2-hydroxybenzyl)-N-(2-picolyl)glycine] was synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of the complex reveals that both ZnII ions are pentacoordinate with distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination arrangements. The phenoxyl groups of each ligand bridge the two metal atoms, whereas each carboxylate of the ligand is terminally bound to one ZnII ion. Potentiometric studies of the ZnII:H2papy system in a methanol/water mixture show the existence of a mononuclear species at lower pH; but at a pH above 5, a dimeric species starts to dominate and transforms further into a bis(μ-phenoxo) bridged dizinc complex by deprotonation of …
Computer simulations of electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of P2O5Li2WO4Li2O glasses
1992
Abstract P2O5Li2WO4Li2O glasses have been synthesized and studied over a wide range of compositions. The glasses were characterized mainly by thermodifferential analysis and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The EPR spectra are characterized by the presence of two signals with very different intensities, associated with the Wv (major signal) and Mov (minor signal) paramagnetic centres. The signals have been satisfactorily reproduced by computer simulation, assuming anisotropy in the g values as well as the hyperfine parameters and linewidths. EPR parameters have been extracted and indicate metallic ions located in environments close to square pyramidal.
Crystal and molecular structure of anhydrous betaine, (CH3)3NCH2CO2
1999
Abstract 1–Carboxy–N,N,N–trimethylmethanamanium inner salt or anhydrous betaine, (CH3)3NCH2CO2, FW=117.15 gmol −1 , crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with a=14.544(2) A , b=6.859(3) A , c=6.131(1) A , V=611.7(3) A 3 , Z=4, D x =1.27 Mgm −3 , λ (MoK α )=0.71073 A , μ =0.091 mm −1 . The structure was resolved by direct methods and refined by least-square calculations to R=0.038 for 531 reflections. Observed changes in bond angles imply that there is a repulsion between nitrogen and oxygen. The melting point (measured at onset) is 570 K. FTIR spectra of anhydrous betaine and monohydrate were recorded. Clear differences were found between the two compounds based on infrared (i.r…
