Field-induced single ion magnet behaviour of discrete and one-dimensional complexes containing [bis(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)ketone]-cobalt(II) building…
2021
International audience; We describe herein the first examples of six-coordinate CoII single-ion magnets (SIMs) based on the β-diimine Mebik ligand [Mebik = bis(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)ketone]: two mononuclear [CoII(Rbik)2L2] complexes and one mixed-valence {CoIII2CoII}n chain of formulas [CoII(Mebik)(H2O)(dmso)(μ-NC)2CoIII2(μ-2,5-dpp)(CN)6]n·1.4nH2O (3) [L = NCS (1), NCSe (2) and 2,5-dpp = 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine (3)]. Two bidentate Mebik molecules plus two monodentate N-coordinated pseudohalide groups in cis positions build somewhat distorted octahedral surroundings around the high-spin cobalt(II) ions in 1 and 2. The diamagnetic [CoIII2(μ-2,5-dpp)(CN)8]2− metalloligand coordinates the pa…
Experimental and Computational Study of Unique Tetranuclear µ 3 ‐Chloride and µ‐Phenoxo/Chloro‐Bridged Defective Dicubane Cobalt(II) Clusters
2016
Two tetranuclear CoII clusters [Co4(L)2(µ3-Cl)2Cl2] have been prepared by using multidentate diaminobisphenolate ligands. The solid-state structures of the complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The cores of the cluster compounds can be defined as a two-vertex-deficient dicubane geometry (pseudo-dicubane). In the central unit, the cobalt(II) cations are linked through phenoxide oxygen (outer bridges) and chloride anions (inner bridges), previously unprecedented in this type of cobalt cluster. The magnetic properties were studied by both experimental and computational methods. By using a combination of techniques, we were able to determine the nature and strength of t…
Cobalt(II) and copper(II) assembling through a functionalized oxamate-type ligand
2014
Two new metal complexes of formula {[Co(Hpcpa)(H2O)3]n� 3/2nH2O} (1) and [Cu2(MeHpcpa)4(MeOH)2] � H2O� 3.68 MeOH (2 )[ H 3pcpa = N-(4-carboxyphenyl)oxamic acid and MeH2pcpa = methyl ester derivative of H3pcpa] have been synthesized and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction. 1 is a neutral zigzag chain of cobalt(II) ions bridged by Hpcpa 2� ligands exhibiting the bidentate/monodentate coordination mode. Each cobalt(II) ion is six-coordinate with three mer positioned water molecules, two oxamate-oxygens from a Hpcpa 2� ligand and a carboxylate-oxygen from another Hpcpa 2� group building a somewhat distorted octahedral surrounding. The intrachain cobalt–cobalt separation is 11.326(2…
Coordination versatility of 1,3-bis[3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazol-1-yl]propane: Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes
2006
Abstract The ligand 1,3-bis[3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazol-1-yl]propane (L8) has afforded six-coordinate monomeric and dimeric complexes [(L8)CoII(H2O)2][ClO4]2 (1), [(L8)NiII(MeCN)2][BPh4]2 (2), [(L8)NiII(O2CMe)][BPh4] (3), and [ ( L 8 ) 2 Co 2 II ( μ - O 2 CMe ) 2 ] [ BPh 4 ] 2 ( 4 ) . The crystal structures of 1, 2 · MeCN, 3, and 4 revealed that the ligand L8 is flexible enough to expand its coordinating ability by fine-tuning the angle between the chelating fragments and hence folds around cobalt(II)/nickel(II) centers to act as a tetradentate chelate, allowing additional coordination by two trans-H2O, cis-MeCN, and a bidentate acetate affording examples of distorted octahedral Co II N 2 ( pyridy…
Analyser of chromium and/or cobalt
2003
Abstract Two stopped-flow manifolds have been proposed for individual or simultaneous determination of chromium and cobalt in water samples. Automated procedures based on multicommutation systems have emphasised the differences of their catalytic effect in luminol–hydrogen peroxide chemiluminescence reaction. A more rapid decay of signal was observed for Co for both configurations (flow injection or continuous injection). The influence of chemical and hydrodynamic variables has been studied in order to establish the robustness of method. The analysis rate was lower 1.5 min per replicate. Chemometric tools have been employed for the resolution of their contributions. Partial least squares (P…
A new mixed-valence hexanuclear cobalt complex, [Co4IICo2III(dea)2(Hdea)4)(piv)4](ClO4)2·H2O: Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties
2010
A new Co II /Co III hexanuclear complex, [Co 4 II Co 2 III (dea) 2 (Hdea) 4 )(piv) 4 ](ClO 4 ) 2 ·H 2 O 1 , has been obtained by reacting cobalt(II) perchlorate, diethanolamine, and pivalic acid (H 2 dea = diethanolamine and piv = pivalato anion). The cobalt ions are held together by four μ 3 and four μ 2 alkoxo bridges as well as by four syn – syn carboxylato groups. The hexanuclear motif contains four Co(II) and two Co(III) ions. The {Co II 4 Co III 2 (μ 2 -O) 4 (μ 3 -O) 4 } core can be described as a four face-sharing monovacant and bivacant distorted heterocubane units. The cobalt(III) ions are hexacoordinated. Two of the cobalt(II) are hexacoordinated, while the two others are pentacoo…
Crossing the boundary between face-centred cubic and hexagonal close packed: the structure of nanosized cobalt is unraveled by a model accounting for…
2014
The properties of nanostructured cobalt in the fields of magnetic, catalytic and biomaterials depend critically on Co close packing. This paper reports a structural analysis of nanosized cobalt based on the whole X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern simulation allowed by the Debye equation. The underlying structural model involves statistical sequences of cobalt layers and produces simulated XRD powder patterns bearing the concurrent signatures of hexagonal and cubic close packing (h.c.p. and f.c.c.). Shape, size distribution and distance distribution between pairs of atoms are also modelled. The simulation algorithm allows straightforward fitting to experimental data and hence the quantitative …
Apoferritin-encapsulated Ni and Co superparamagnetic nanoparticles
2006
Ni and Co nanoparticles (average diameters 3 and 3.5 nm) have been prepared within the apoferritin cavity. The protein shell prevents bulk aggregation of the metal particles, rendering them water soluble. X-Ray diffraction, transmission electronic microscopy and magnetization measurements have been used for characterizing the nanoparticles. The magnetic study of both nanoparticles confirmed the expected superparamagnetic behavior.
Pressure-Driven Symmetry-Preserving Phase Transitions in Co(IO3)2
2021
[EN] High-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction studies of cobalt iodate, Co(IO3)(2), reveal a counterintuitive pressure-induced expansion along certain crystallographic directions. High-pressure Raman and infrared spectroscopy, combined with density-functional theory calculations, reveal that with increasing pressure, it becomes energetically favorable for certain I-O bonds to increase in length over the full range of pressure studied up to 28 GPa. This phenomenon is driven by the high-pressure behavior of iodate ion lone electron pairs. Two pressure-induced isosymmetric monoclinic-monoclinic phase transitions are observed at around 3.0 and 9.0 GPa, which are characterized by increasing o…
Cobalt-Containing Silicotungstate Sandwich Dimer [{Co3(B-β-SiW9O33(OH))(B-β-SiW8O29(OH)2)}2]22-
2005
The 6-cobalt-substituted [{Co3(B-beta-SiW9O33(OH))(B-beta-SiW8O29(OH)2)}2]22- has been characterized by IR and UV-vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis, magnetic studies, electrochemistry, and gel filtration chromatography. A single-crystal X-ray analysis was carried out on K10Na12[{Co3(B-beta-SiW9O33(OH))(B-beta-SiW8O29(OH)2)}2].49H2O (KNa-1), which crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/n, with a=19.9466(8) A, b=24.6607(10) A, c=34.0978(13) A, beta=102.175(1) degrees, and Z=2. Polyanion 1 represents a novel class of asymmetric sandwich-type polyanions. It contains three cobalt ions, which are encapsulated between an unprecedented (B-beta-SiW9O34) fragment and a (B-beta-Si…
