Multielectron transfer in a dicopper(II) anthraquinophane.

2013

The new dinuclear copper(II) metallacyclophane with the non-innocent N,N'-1,4-bis(oxamate)-9,10-anthraquinone bridging ligand possesses a dual multielectron redox behavior featuring stepwise one-electron oxidation of the antiferromagnetically coupled Cu(II) ions and two-electron reduction of the anthraquinone spacers in a π-stacked anti conformation.

Imidazolate bridged Cu(II)-Cu(II) and Cu(II)-Zn(II) complexes of a terpyridinophane azamacrocycle: a solution and solid state study.

2007

The dinuclear Cu2+ and Zn2+ as well as the mixed Cu2+-Zn2+ complexes of a 5,5''-pentaazaterpyridinophane ligand (L) are able to incorporate imidazolate (Im-) as a bridging ligand. The crystal structure of [Cu(2)L(Im)(Br)(H2O)](CF(3)SO(3))(2).3H2O (1) shows one copper coordinated by the three pyridine nitrogens of the terpyridine unit, one nitrogen of the imidazolate bridge (Im-) and one bromide anion occupying the axial position of a distorted square pyramid. The second copper atom is coordinated by the remaining imidazolate nitrogen, the three secondary nitrogens at the centre of the polyamine bridge and one water molecule that occupies the axial position. Magnetic measurements have been p…

A Binuclear MnIII Complex of a Scorpiand-Like Ligand Displaying a Single Unsupported MnIII–O–MnIII Bridge

2012

The crystal structure of a binuclear Mn(III) complex of a scorpiand-like ligand (L) displays an unsupported single oxo bridging ligand with a Mn(III)-O-Mn(III) angle of 174.7°. Magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate strong antiferromagnetic coupling between the two metal centers. DFT calculations have been carried out to understand the magnetic behavior and to analyze the nature of the observed Jahn-Teller distortion. Paramagnetic (1)H NMR has been applied to rationalize the formation and magnetic features of the complexes formed in solution.

Coordination Chemistry of 6-Thioguanine Derivatives with Cobalt: Toward Formation of Electrical Conductive One-Dimensional Coordination Polymers

2013

In this work we have synthetized and characterized by X-ray diffraction five cobalt complexes with 6-thioguanine (6-ThioGH), 6-thioguanosine (6-ThioGuoH), or 2'-deoxy-6-thioguanosine (2'-d-6-ThioGuoH) ligands. In all cases, these ligands coordinate to cobalt via N7 and S6 forming a chelate ring. However, independently of reagents ratio, 6-ThioGH provided monodimensional cobalt(II) coordination polymers, in which the 6-ThioG(-) acts as bridging ligand. However, for 2'-d-6-ThioGuoH and 6-ThioGuoH, the structure directing effect of the sugar residue gives rise to mononuclear cobalt complexes which form extensive H-bond interactions to generate 3D supramolecular networks. Furthermore, with 2'-d…

Structural and Theoretical Basis for Ligand Exchange on Thiolate Monolayer Protected Gold Nanoclusters

2012

Ligand exchange reactions are widely used for imparting new functionality on or integrating nanoparticles into devices. Thiolate-for-thiolate ligand exchange in monolayer protected gold nanoclusters has been used for over a decade; however, a firm structural basis of this reaction has been lacking. Herein, we present the first single-crystal X-ray structure of a partially exchanged Au(102)(p-MBA)(40)(p-BBT)(4) (p-MBA = para-mercaptobenzoic acid, p-BBT = para-bromobenzene thiol) with p-BBT as the incoming ligand. The crystal structure shows that 2 of the 22 symmetry-unique p-MBA ligand sites are partially exchanged to p-BBT under the initial fast kinetics in a 5 min timescale exchange reacti…

Touching the upper limit for ferromagnetic interactions in hetero-bridged dinuclear [Cu-2(II)] complexes using a novel N-5-dinucleating ligand bearin…

2012

A novel N-5-dinucleating ligand 4-amino-3,5-bis(bipyridine-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole allows the preparation for the first time, and under mild conditions, of single and mixed amido(R-NH-)-bridged copper(II) complexes, the latter exhibiting very strong ferromagnetic coupling.

PREVALENCE OF MYOCARDIAL BRIDGING AND CORRELATION WITH CORONARY ATHEROSCLEROSIS STUDIED WITH 64-SLICE CT CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY

2009

[Diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of "myocardial bridging": state of the art and unresolved issues].

2013

The current gold standard for the diagnosis of myocardial bridging is conventional coronary angiography; however, it shows only indirect signs of the disease, due to the systolic compression of the artery caused by the myocardial bridge with narrowing of the lumen and diastolic relaxation. On the other hand, computed tomography coronary angiography, even though exposing to radiation, clearly demonstrates the intramural course, the overlying muscular bands and the surrounding tissues also in asymptomatic patients and in absence of systolic compression. The prognosis of patients with myocardial bridge is usually good, but further studies are needed to evaluate the long-term prognosis of these…

A tetranuclear organorhenium(i) complex of the 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane radical anion, TCNQF4˙−

2008

The radical complex {(mu(4)-TCNQF4)[Re(CO)(3)(bpy)](4)}(PF(6))(3), as prepared and isolated from the reaction between TCNQF4 and [Re(CO)(3)(bpy)(MeOH)](PF(6)), was studied electrochemically and by IR vibrational spectroscopy, UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, and by EPR at 9.5, 190 and 285 GHz. The isotropic g factor of 2.0058, the detectable g anisotropy, and the (185,187)Re EPR hyperfine coupling of 0.95 mT for four equivalent metal nuclei support predominant, but not exclusive, spin localisation at the bridging ligand. Nitrile and metal carbonyl stretching frequencies as well as the typically structured near infrared absorption band lend further support to (TCNQF4 (-))(Re(I))(4) as the…

Polynitrile anions as ligands: Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of a new three-dimensional coordination polymer with the 2-dicyanomethyle…

2005

cited By 12; International audience; Reaction between CuCl2 and K2tcpd (tcpd2- = C[C(CN)2]32- = 2-dicyanomethylenc-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropanediide anion) in presence of the neutral ligand tn (1,3-diaminopropane) in aqueous solution yields the new compound [Cu(tn)(tcpd)] (1) which was characterized by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure of 1 consists of one [Cu(tn)]2+ unit and one tcpd2- anion, both located on general positions. Each Cu atom presents an essentially octahedral coordination with four nitrogen atoms arising from four polynitrile ligands and two nitrogen atoms from the chelating tn ligand. Despite its six nitrile groups potentially bridging, the tcpd ligand acts with a μ…
