Highly Stable Neutral and Positively Charged Dicarbollide Sandwich Complexes

2005

Novel sandwich metallacarboranes commo-[3,3'-Ni(8-SMe2-1,2-C2B9H10)2] (1), commo-[3,3'-Co(8-SMe2-1,2-C2B9H10)2]+ (2+), commo-[3,3'-Ru(8-SMe2-1,2-C2B9H10)2] (4) and commo-[3,3'-Fe(8-SMe2-1,2-C2B9H10)2] (5) have been prepared by reaction of [10-SMe2-7,8-nido-C2B9H10]- with NiCl2 x 6 H2O, CoCl2, [RuCl2(dmso)4] and [FeCl2(dppe)], respectively. Reduction of 2+ with metallic Zn leads to the neutral and isolable complex commo-[3,3'-Co(8-SMe2-1,2-C2B9H10)2] (3). Theoretical calculations using the ZINDO/1 semiempirical method show three energy minima for complexes 1-3 and 5 that agree with the presence of three different rotamers in solution at low temperature, while four relative energy minima have…

Recent studies on RR′S·C2B9H11 charge-compensated ligands

2002

Abstract In this paper we report the synthesis of three new carborane derivatives of the series 7,8-R,R′-10-L-7,8-C2B9H9 (R=R′=H, L=SEtPh; R=CH3, R′=H, L=SMe2 and L=SEt2) along with the enhanced characterization of formerly described compounds 7,8-R,R′-10-L-7,8-C2B9H9 (R=R′=H, L=SMe2 (1), L=SEt2 (2) and L=S(CH2)4 (3)). They have been fully characterised using 1H-, 11B- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Their bridging proton resonances have been located for the first time. Individual sulfonium substituent contributions have been calculated that have permitted to establish a rule to predict its position in the 1H-NMR spectrum. The crystal structures of 1 and 3 have been resolved for the first time. T…

On the magneto-structural role of the coordinating anion in oxamato-bridged copper(ii) derivatives

2019

We herein present the synthesis, spectroscopic analysis, description of the crystal structures and magnetic properties of four new complexes of the formula [{Cu(opba)(H2O)1.2}{Cu(dmphen)(SCN)}2]·dmf (1), [{Cu(opba)}2{Cu(dmphen)Cl}4]·1.5dmf·2.5dmso (2), [{Cu(opba)}2{Cu(dmphen)Br}4]·dmf·2.3dmso (3) and [{Cu(opba)}{Cu(dmphen)(dca)}2]n (4) [H4opba = N,N′-1,2-phenylenebis(oxamic acid), dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and dca = dicyanamide anion]. 1 is a neutral tricopper(II) complex where an inner [Cu(opba)]2− fragment adopts a bis-bidentate coordination mode towards two outer [Cu(dmphen)(NCS)]+ units. 2 and 3 are bis-trinuclear species where two oxamato-bridged [Cu(opba){Cu(dmphen)X}2…

A carboxylate-bridged NiII8 cluster with a distorted cubane topology: structure, magnetism and density functional studies

2016

Using a dicarboxylate ligand appended with (2-pyridyl)ethylamine unit, a new cluster [NiII8(L4)6(DMF)2(CH3OH)2(H2O)6][ClO4]4·2CH3OH·2CH3CO2C2H5 (1) [L4(2−): 3-[N-{2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl}amino]-bis(propionate)] has been synthesized, through ‘coordination-driven self-assembly’. The crystal structure of 1 reveals a centrosymmetric octanuclear carboxylate-bridged nickel(II) tetracation, with a distorted cubane topology. The four crystallographically independent nickel(II) centres differ markedly in their coordination environment. Magnetic studies (2–300 K) reveal that in 1 the net magnetic-exchange is antiferromagnetic. Based on geometric parameters associated with two interacting nickel(II) cen…

Halide-Mediated Modification of Magnetism and Electronic Structure of α-Co(II) Hydroxides: Synthesis, Characterization, and DFT+U Simulations.

2019

The present study introduces a comprehensive exploration in terms of physicochemical characterization and calculations based on density functional theory with Hubbard's correction (DFT+U) of the whole family of α-Co(II) hydroxyhalide (F, Cl, Br, I). These samples were synthesized at room temperature by employing a one-pot approach based on the epoxide route. A thorough characterization (powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis/mass spectroscopy, and magnetic and conductivity measurements) corroborated by simulation is presented that analyzes the structural, magnetic, and electronic aspects. Beyond the inherent tendency of intercalated anions to …

Synthesis, crystal structure, DFT and biological activity of E-pyrene-1-carbaldehyde oxime and E-2-naphthaldehyde oxime

2020

Abstract The aldoximes E-pyrene-1-carbaldehyde oxime 1 and E-2-naphthaldehyde oxime 2 were synthesized, in ca. 90% yield, by treatment of pyrene-1-carbaldehyde or 2-naphthaldehyde, respectively, with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and sodium carbonate in MeOH. Compounds 1 and 2 were characterized by IR, 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopies, elemental analyses and single crystal X-ray diffraction (in the case of 1). The studied system (compound 1) showed significant amounts of H⋯H (44.4%), C⋯H (25.4%) and C⋯C (13.3%) intermolecular interactions in addition to the short N⋯H (5.9%) and O⋯H (6.2%) intermolecular interactions. These interactions affect the molecular packing of the studied system in th…

Unveiling the high reactivity of cyclohexynes in [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions through the molecular electron density theory

2018

[3 + 2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions of cyclohexyne, a cyclic strained acetylene, with methyl azide and methoxycarbonyl diazomethane have been studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d) computational level. These 32CA reactions, which take place through a one-step mechanism involving highly asynchronous transition state structures, proceed with relatively low activation enthalpies of 6.0 and 4.3 kcal mol-1, respectively, both reactions being strongly exothermic. The reactions are initiated by the creation of a pseudoradical center at one of the two acetylenic carbons of cyclohexyne with a very low energy cost, 1.0 kcal mol-1, which promotes the eas…
