Experimental and Theoretical Studies on Magnetic Exchange in Silole-Bridged Diradicals.
2006
International audience; Five bis(tert-butylnitroxide) diradicals connected by a silole [2,5-R2-3,4-diphenylsilole; R = Me3CN(®O.bul.)Z; Z = p-C6H4 (7a), p-C6H4C6H4-p (7b), 1,4-naphthalenediyl (7c), m-C6H4 (7d)] or a thiophene [2,5-R2-thiophene; R = p-Me3CN(®O.bul.)C6H4 (12)] ring as a coupler were studied. Compd. 12 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna21 with a 20.752(5), b 5.826(5), and c 34.309(5) .ANG.. X-ray crystal structure detn., electronic spectroscopy, variable-temp. EPR spectroscopy, SQUID measurements and DFT computations (UB3LYP/6-31+G*) were used to study the mol. conformations and electronic spin coupling in this series of mols. Whereas compds. 7b, 7c, and 7d are q…
Stereochemical Consequences of Oxygen Atom Transfer and Electron Transfer in Imido/Oxido Molybdenum(IV, V, VI) Complexes with Two Unsymmetric Bidenta…
2012
Two equivalents of the unsymmetrical Schiff base ligand (L(tBu))(-) (4-tert-butyl phenyl(pyrrolato-2-ylmethylene)amine) and MoCl(2)(NtBu)O(dme) (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) gave a single stereoisomer of a mixed imido/oxido Mo(VI) complex 2(tBu). The stereochemistry of 2(tBu) was elucidated using X-ray diffraction, NMR spectroscopy, and DFT calculations. The complex is active in an oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reaction to trimethyl phosphane. The putative intermediate five-coordinate Mo(IV) imido complex coordinates a PMe(3) ligand, giving the six-coordinate imido phosphane Mo(IV) complex 5(tBu). The stereochemistry of 5(tBu) is different from that of 2(tBu) as shown by NMR spectroscopy, DFT ca…
Effects of static and dynamic perturbations on isotropic hyperfine coupling constants in some quinone radicals.
2004
The effects of solvent dielectric response on the isotropic hyperfine coupling constants of the 1,4-benzoquinone, 1,4-naphthoquinone and 9,10-anthraquinone anions and 1,4-naphthalenediol cation radicals were studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy and by the theoretical density functional method within the polarizable continuum model. Experimental results demonstrate that the isotropic hyperfine coupling constants can be obtained with high accuracy and that the effects of solvent impurities can be minimized by careful sample preparation. The results obtained correlate well with theoretical predictions from density functional theory calculations. For 1,4-naphthalenediol both th…
Synyhesis, structure, spectroscopy and redox chemistry of square-planar nickel(II) complexes with tetradentate o-phenylenedioxamidates and related li…
2005
[EN] A series of four-coordinate square-planar nickel(II) complexes of o-phenylenebis(N¿-methyloxamidate) (L1) and related o-phenylene(N¿-methyloxamidate)oxamate (L2) and o-phenylenebis(oxamate) (L3) tetradentate ligands have been synthesized and characterized structurally, spectroscopically and electrochemically. The parent nickel(II)¿L1 complex presents an intense MLCT band in the UV region (¿max = 357 nm) and a distinctive 1 s ¿ 4p CT satellite in the Ni K-edge XANES spectrum (E = 8339.2 eV). These features together with the short Ni¿N(amidate) bond lengths (1.85¿1.93 Å) as revealed by the analysis of the Ni K-edge EXAFS spectrum and confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction are typi…
Fluidity of liposome membranes doped with metalloporphyrins: An ESR study
2008
Changes in membrane fluidity of porphyrin-doped liposomes have been investigated to assess the kinetics of the fluidization process. Metal complexes of tert-butylphenyl mesosubstituted porphyrin, containing ions of Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Cu, were used as dopants. Liposomes were obtained by sonication of hen egg yolk lecithin (EYL). Electron paramagnetic resonance (ESR) was applied using two spin probes, TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine- 1-oxyl) and 16-DOXYL-stearic acid [2-ethyl-2-(15-methoxy-15-oxopentadecyl)-4,4- dimethyl-3-oxazolidinyloxyl], localized at different sites within the membrane to determine the spectroscopic parameters: partition (F) and rotation correlation time (τ), rel…
Effects of sequence, connectivity, and counter ions in new amide-linked Ru(tpy)2-Re(bpy) chromophores on redox chemistry and photophysics.
2013
New cationic metallo ligands L1-L3 based on bis(terpyridine) ruthenium(II) complexes decorated with differently substituted 2,2'-bipyridines attached via amide groups (5-NHCO-bpy, 4-CONH-bpy, 5-CONH-bpy) were prepared. Coordination of Re(I)Cl(CO)(3) fragments to the bpy unit gives the corresponding bimetallic Ru~Re complexes 1-3. Hydrogen bonds of the bridging amide groups to [PF(6)](-) counterions or to water molecules are observed both in the solid state and in solution. The impact of the amide orientation, the connecting site, and the coordination of counterions on redox and photophysical properties is explored. Both the metallo ligands L1-L3 and the bimetallic complexes 1-3 are emissive…
Cubane-Type Mo3FeS44+,5+ Complexes Containing Outer Diphosphane Ligands: Ligand Substitution Reactions, Spectroscopic Studies, and Electronic Structu…
2012
A general protocol to access Mo(3)FeS(4)(4+) clusters selectively modified at the Fe coordination site is presented starting from the all-chlorine Mo(3)(FeCl)S(4)(dmpe)(3)Cl(3) (1) [dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphane-ethane)] cluster and tetrabutylammonium salts (n-Bu(4)NX) (X = CN(-), N(3)(-), and PhS(-)). Clusters Mo(3)(FeX)S(4)(dmpe)(3)Cl(3) [X = CN(-) (2), N(3)(-) (3), and PhS(-) (4)] are prepared in high yield, and comparison of geometric and redox features upon modification of the coordination environment at the Fe site at parity of ligands at the Mo sites is also presented. The existence of the cubane-type Mo(3)FeS(4)(4+,5+) redox couple is demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry and for co…
Effect of temperature and ligand protonation on the electronic ground state in Cu( ii ) polymers having unusual secondary interactions: a magnetic an…
2018
International audience; Two new copper(II) polymeric complexes, {[Cu(HPymat)(H2O)](NO3)}n (1) and [Cu2(Pymat)2(H2O)3]n (2), have been synthesized using the Schiff base ligand H2Pymat [H2Pymat = (E)-2-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)-methyleneamino)terephthalic acid]. Complex 1 is a cationic 1D polymer, whereas complex 2 is a two dimensional polymer. Both complexes were crystallographically, spectroscopically and magnetically characterized. Theoretical studies were performed and the catecholase activity of the complexes was also examined. Complex 1 is a ferromagnetically coupled complex with J = 2.8 cm−1 and 2 shows antiferromagnetic coupling with J = −1.6 cm−1. Both complexes show notable features in the …
Unusual Formation of a Stable 2D Copper Porphyrin Network
2013
Copper(II) 5,15-bis(diethoxyphosphoryl)-10,20-diphenylporphyrin was obtained and characterized by means of cyclic voltammetry, electron paramagnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared, and UV-visible spectroscopy. Three crystalline forms were grown and studied by means of X-ray diffraction methods (single crystal and powder). The highly electron-withdrawing effect of phosphoryl groups attached directly to the porphyrin macrocycle results in a self-assembling process, with formation of a stable 2D coordination network, which is unusual for copper(II) porphyrins. The resulting 2D structure is a rare example of an assembly based on copper(II) porphyrins where the copper(II) central metal io…
Isolation, characterization, and computational studies of the novel [Mo3(mu3-Br)2(mu-Br)3Br6]2- cluster anion.
2010
The novel trimolybdenum cluster [Mo(3)(mu(3)-Br)(2)(mu-Br)(3)Br(6)](2-) (1, {Mo(3)}(9+), 9 d-electrons) has been isolated from the reaction of [Mo(CO)(6)] with 1,2-C(2)H(4)Br(2) in refluxing PhCl. The compound has been characterized in solution by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and in the solid state by X-ray analysis (counter-cations: (n-Bu)(4)N(+) (1), Et(4)N(+), Et(3)BzN(+)), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), magnetic susceptibility measurements, and infrared spectroscopy. The least disordered (n-Bu)(4)N(+) salt crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 20.077(2) A, b = 11.8638(11) A, c = 22.521(2) A, alpha = 9…
