Zirconocene-ate Zwitterionic Complexes: Preparation and X-ray Structure
1998
Valence-Delocalized and Valence-Trapped FeIIFeIII Complexes: Drastic Influence of the Ligands
1997
The two macrocyclic ligands H 2 L 1 and H 2 L 2 are not very different, but their Fe II Fe III complexes are remarkably so. [L 1 Fe 2 (μ-OAc) 2 ](ClO 4 ) is valence-delocalized on the Mossbauer time scale over the range 1.8-364 K, whereas [L 2 Fe 2 (μ-OAc)(OAc)(H 2 O)](ClO 4 )·2H 2 O is valence-trapped even at room temperature. The difference in properties of these complexes is also reflected in their electronic spectra, in their electrochemical and magnetic behavior, and in their structures.
[MnM(egta)]· 8H2O(M= Mn, Cd): A Novel Type of Two-Dimensional Magnetic Lattice
1993
Syntheses, X-ray structures, and redox behaviour of the group 14 bis-boraamidinates M[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (M = Ge, Sn) and Li2M[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (M = Sn…
2009
The solid-state structures of the complexes M[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (1a, M= Ge; 1b, M = Sn) were determined to be spirocyclic with two orthogonal boraamidinate (bam) ligands N,N′-chelated to the group 14 centre. Oxidation of 1b with SO2Cl2 afforded the thermally unstable, blue radical cation {Sn[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2}•+, identified by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, whereas the germanium analogue 1a was inert towards SO2Cl2. The reaction between Li2[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 and SnCl2 or PbI2 in 2:1 molar ratio in diethyl ether produced the novel heterotrimetallic complexes Li2Sn[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (2b) and (Et2O·Li)LiPb[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu…
Competitive gold-activation modes in terminal alkynes: an experimental and mechanistic study.
2013
The competition between π- and dual σ,π-gold-activation modes is revealed in the gold(I)-catalyzed heterocyclization of 1-(o-ethynylaryl)urea. A noticeable effect of various ligands in gold complexes on the choice of these activation modes is described. The cationic [Au(IPr)](+) (IPr=2,6-bis(diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) complex cleanly promotes the π activation of terminal alkynes, whereas [Au(PtBu3 )](+) favors intermediate σ,π species. In this experimental and mechanistic study, which includes kinetic and cross-over experiments, several σ-gold, σ,π-gold, and other gold polynuclear reaction intermediates have been isolated and identified by NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, or …
π-Interpenetrated 3D Covalent Organic Frameworks from Distorted Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.
2021
Three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) with a pcu topology have been obtained from distorted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons acting as triangular antiprismatic (D3d ) nodes. Such 3D COFs are six-fold interpenetrated as the result of interframework π-stacking, which enable charge transport properties that are not expected for 3D COFs.
An Open-Shell Coronoid with Hybrid Chichibabin-Schlenk Conjugation.
2021
A hexaradicaloid molecule with alternating Kekule and non-Kekule connectivities between adjacent spin centers was obtained by fusing two conjugation motifs in Chichibabin and Schlenk hydrocarbons into a coronoid structure. 1 H NMR, ESR, and SQUID experiments and computational analyses show that the system has a singlet ground state with a significant hexaradicaloid character (γ0 =0.826, γ1 =γ2 =0.773). It has multiple thermally accessible high-spin states (up to the septet), with uniform energy gaps of ca 1.0 kcal mol-1 between consecutive multiplicities. In line with its open-shell character, the coronoid has a small electronic band gap (ca. 0.8 eV) and undergoes two consecutive one-electr…

Optical absorption of magnesia-supported gold clusters and nanoscale catalysts: Effects due to the support, clusters, and adsorbants
2005
Polarization-resolved optical spectra of magnesia-supported gold clusters ${\mathrm{Au}}_{N}∕\mathrm{Mg}\mathrm{O}$ $(N=1,2,4,8)$, bound at a surface color center ${F}_{s}$ of the MgO(100) face, are calculated from the time-dependent density functional theory. The optical lines for $N=1,2$ are dominated by transitions that involve strong hybridization between gold and ${F}_{s}$ states whereas for $N=4,8$ intracluster transitions dominate. The theoretical optical spectra are sensitive to cluster structure and adsorbants (here CO and ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ molecules on ${\mathrm{Au}}_{8}∕{F}_{s}@\mathrm{Mg}\mathrm{O}$) which suggests polarization-resolved optical spectroscopy as a powerful tool t…
