Self-assembly of the tetrachlorido(oxalato)rhenate( iv ) anion with protonated organic cations: X-ray structures and magnetic properties
2016
Two novel ReIV compounds of formulae [H2bpy][ReIVCl4(ox)] (1) and [H3biim]2[ReIVCl4(ox)] (2) [H2bpy2+ = 4,4′-bipyridinium dication, H3biim+ = 2,2′-biimidazolium monocation, and ox2− = oxalate dianion] have been synthesised and magneto-structurally characterised. 1 crystallises in the monoclinic system with space group C2/c, and 2 crystallises in the triclinic system with space group P[1 with combining macron]. The ReIV ion in 1 and 2 is six-coordinate, bonded to four chloride ions and two oxalate-oxygen atoms in a distorted octahedral geometry. Short intermolecular ReIV–Cl⋯Cl–ReIV contacts, Cl⋯π type interactions and hydrogen bonds are present in the crystal lattice of both compounds, gener…
A trigonal prismatic anionic iron(iii) complex of a radical o-iminobenzosemiquinonate derivative: structural and spectral analyses
2017
A new iron(III) complex, [Et3NH][FeIII(L2−˙)2] (1) with a substituted o-aminophenol based ligand is reported. Complex 1 is an anionic complex with a triethylammonium cation in the lattice. It contains two O,O,N-coordinated o-iminobenzosemiquinonate(2−) radical anions with an Fe(III) centre in a high-spin configuration. The crystal structure of 1 was determined by X-ray diffraction, which revealed a trigonal prismatic coordination environment whose electronic structure was established by various physical methods including EPR, Mossbauer spectroscopy and variable-temperature (2–300 K) magnetic susceptibility measurements. Electrochemical analysis indicated primarily ligand-centred redox proce…
Organotin(IV) derivatives containing heteroditopic pyridyl-quinolin-8-olate ligands: Synthesis and structures
2021
Abstract Six novel neutral organotin(IV) complexes, viz. [n-Bu2Sn(L4-PyAQ)2] 1, [Bz2Sn(L4-PyAQ)2] 2, [Ph2Sn(L4-PyAQ)2] 3, [Ph2Sn(L3-PyAQ)2] 4, [Bz3Sn(L4-PyAQ)] 5 and [Ph3Sn(L4-PyAQ)] 6 have been synthesized via reactions of 3/4-pyridyl-quinolin-8-ol pro-ligands, with appropriate diorganotin oxide and triorganotin hydroxide precursors, respectively. The compounds 1-6 were characterized in solution by means of NMR spectroscopy while the solid-state structures of 1, 6, and of the solvates 2·1.5C6H6, 3·0.25C6H6, 2·4·C6H6, and 5·0.5H2O were authenticated by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In the solid-state, the tin centers in 1-2·4·C6H6 are hexacoordinated and reveal a distorted cis-…
Tuning the Electronic Properties of the Dative N-B Bond with Associated O-B Interaction: Electron Localizability Indicator from X-Ray Wavefunction Re…
2016
Despite the immense growth in interest in difluoroborate dyes, the nature of the interactions of the boron atom within the N-BF2 -O kernel is not yet fully understood. Herein, a set of real-space bonding indicators is used to quantify the electronic characteristics of the dative N-B bond in difluoroborate derivatives. The atoms-in-molecules (AIM) partitioning scheme is complemented by the electron localizability indicator (ELI-D) approach, and both were applied to experimental and theoretical electron-density distributions (X-ray constrained wavefunction fitting vs. DFT calculations). Additionally, Fermi orbital analysis was introduced for small DFT models to support and extend the findings…
Oxotris(oxalate)niobate(V): An oxalate delivery agent in the design of building blocks
2018
This work concerns the oxalate delivery process that occurs when using (NH4)3[NbO(C2O4)3]·6H2O as a suitable oxalate source in the synthesis of two compounds, [Cu(dmphen)(C2O4)(H2O)] (1) and [{Cu(dmphen)(CH3OH)}2(μ-C2O4)](ClO4)2 (2) (dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline). {[Fe{HB(pz)3}(CN)2(μ-CN)]2[{Cu(dmphen)}2(μ-C2O4)]}∙xCH3OH (3) (2.0 ≤ x ≤ 2.4) was obtained by reacting 2 and PPh4[Fe{HB(pz)3}(CN)3]∙H2O [ = tetraphenylphosphonium and = tris(pyrazolyl)borate]. Crystal structures of 1–3 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments: 1 is a mononuclear trigonal bipyramidal copper(II) species, 2 is a centrosymmetric oxalato-bridged dicopper(II) complex, and 3 consi…
Mixed phenoxo and azido bridged dinuclear nickel(II) and copper(II) compounds with N,N,O-donor schiff bases: Synthesis, structure, DNA binding, DFT a…
2019
Abstract Two dinuclear complexes, µ-phenoxo, µ1,1-azido bridged [Ni2(L)2(µ1,1-N3)(N3)(CH3OH)] (1) and µ-phenoxo, µ1,1-azido bridged [Cu2(L)2(µ1,1-N3)(N3)] (2) bearing HL as a blocking co-ligand produced by the 1:1 condensation of N-methyl 1,3 propanediamine with o-vanillin have been synthesized and successfully characterized by elemental analyses, IR and electronic spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction for 1 and DFT optimization for 2. X-ray crystal structure discloses that the asymmetric unit of 1 consists of two nickel(II) ions exhibiting a six-coordinate octahedral coordination with µ-phenoxo, µ1,1-azido bridging dimeric structure. The DFT optimization of 2 reveals the five-coor…
Stepwise Construction of Heterobimetallic Cages by an Extended Molecular Library Approach.
2017
Two novel heterobimetallic complexes, a trigonal-bipyramidal and a cubic one, have been synthesized and characterized using the same C3-symmetric metalloligand, prepared by a simple subcomponent self-assembly strategy. Adopting the molecular library approach, we chose a mononuclear, preorganized iron(II) complex as the metalloligand capable of self-assembly into a trigonal-bipyramidal or a cubic aggregate upon coordination to cis-protected C2-symmetric palladium(II) or unprotected tetravalent palladium(II) ions, respectively. The trigonal-bipyramidal complex was characterized by NMR and UV–vis spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and single-crystal X-ray diffrac…
New crystal structures of fluorinated α-aminophosphonic acid analogues of phenylglycine
2020
The four novel phosphonic acid analogues of phenylglycine with various substituents in phenyl ring (mostly fluorine atoms) have been synthesized by using procedure of amidoalkylation of phosphorus trichloride with aromatic aldehydes and acetamide. The NMR, ESI-MS spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-Ray diffraction methods were used to characterize unusual structures: the amino-(4-trifluoromethylbenzyl)-(1), amino-(3,4-difluorobenzyl)-(2), amino-(2,4,6-trifluorobenzyl)-(3), and amino-(2-fluoro-4-hydroxybenzyl)-(4) phosphonic acids. Since the α-aminophosphonates have a potential for biological activity and could be used as building blocks in medicinal chemistry, it is important to know their d…
A Generalized Semiempirical Approach to the Modeling of the Optical Band Gap of Ternary Al-(Ga, Nb, Ta, W) Oxides Containing Different Alumina Polymo…
2021
A generalization of the modeling equation of optical band gap values for ternary oxides, as a function of cationic ratio composition, is carried out based on the semiempirical correlation between the differences in the electronegativity of oxygen and the average cationic electronegativity proposed some years ago. In this work, a novel approach is suggested to account for the differences in the band gap values of the different polymorphs of binary oxides as well as for ternary oxides existing in different crystalline structures. A preliminary test on the validity of the proposed modeling equations has been carried out by using the numerous experimental data pertaining to alumina and gallia p…

2019
Abstract Two new Cu(II) complexes with bis(2-imidazolyl) based ligands, with the formula [Cu(BIM)2(SCN)2]·2H2O (BIM = bis(2-imidazol-2-yl)methane) and [Cu(HBIMAM)2(OH2)2](BF4)4·2H2O (BIMAM = bis(2-imidazol-2-yl)methylaminomethane) have been synthesized and characterized. Both compounds contain mononuclear entities as molecular building blocks (MBBs); neutral [Cu(BIM)2(SCN)2] in compound 1 and cationic [Cu(HBIMAM)2(OH2)2]4+ in compound 2. The coordination around the metal atoms shows a tetragonally-elongated octahedral geometry (CuN4S2 and CuN4O2 chromophores). The Q-band EPR spectra of both compounds are indicative of an essentially d x 2 - y 2 ground state for copper(II) ions. The analysis…
