Magneto-structural correlations and DFT calculations in two rare tetranuclear copper(II)-clusters with doubly phenoxo and end-on azido bridges: Synth…
2010
International audience; By slightly changing the synthetic conditions, we have prepared two closely related linear tetranuclear CuII complexes with the symmetrical ONNO donor tetradentate Schiff-base ligand [H2L = (OH)C6H4(CH3)Cdouble bond; length as m-dashN(CH2)3Ndouble bond; length as m-dashC(CH3)C6H4(OH)] and with azide ions. These two distinctly coloured crystalline products were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, CV, EPR spectra and variable temperature magnetic measurements. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of the green [Cu4(μ-L)2(μ1,1-N3)2(N3)2] (1) and the red [Cu4(μ-L)2(μ1,1-N3)2(N3)2(H2O)2] (2) crystals show that the coordination environment o…
PtTe2: Potential new material for the growth of defect-free TeO2 single crystals
2008
Abstract The dissociation of Te–O bonds is the main drawback, which hampers the yield of large-sized paratellurite single crystals of high optical quality when using platinum crucibles. In this work, it is assumed that a catalytic dissociation process involves the intermediate formation of platinum tellurides, these ones being then responsible for entrapment of gas bubbles and black precipitates when growth proceeds. To alleviate this difficulty, we suggest that platinum ditelluride could be a chemically more appropriate compound instead of pure platinum. First experiments on direct transformation of platinum sheets into PtTe 2 under tellurium gas atmosphere are described, as well as the pr…
Through-bond versus through-space T1 energy transfers in organometallic compound-metalloporphyrin pigments
2009
The preparation and characterization of two d9−d9 M2-bonded Pt2(dppm)2(C≡CC6H4-M(P))2 complexes (where M = Zn or Pd, and P = diethylhexamethylporphyrin) were achieved. The central [Pt2(dppm)2(C≡CC6H4)2] organometallic unit appears to be an independent chromophore and is suspected to be luminescent at 77 K (in 2MeTHF) in the porphyrin-containing complexes, as this is the case for the unfunctionalized Pt2(dppm)2(C≡CPh)2 parent compound. However, when this spacer is connected (by a single C−C bond) to either M(P) (M = Zn, Pd), even in the absence of conjugation (as the computed dihedral angle between the C6H4 and porphyrin planes is ∼84.5°), total quenching of the luminescence of the [Pt2(dppm…
Growth, characterization, and high-pressure optical studies of CuWO4
2008
Copper tungstate (CuWO4) crystals grown by the top-seeded solution growth method were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering, and optical measurements. CuWO4 has a triclinic structure (P 1¯) with a = 4.709 A, b = 5.845 A, c = 4.884 A, α = 88.3°, β = 92.5°, and γ = 97.2°. It consists of corner-linked CuO6 and WO6 octahedra, the former having a pseudo-tetragonally elongated geometry caused by the Cu2+ Jahn–Teller effect. Fifteen out of the eighteen Raman modes of CuWO4 are reported, discussed, and compared with those of other tungstates. We also determined the indirect band-gap energy of CuWO4 (2.3 eV) and its negative pressure coefficient up to 25 GPa. The pressure evolution of…
Formation of meso-1,2-Bis(dimethylamino)-1,2-diphenylethane by Oxidative C-C Coupling Reaction
2005
The title compound was obtained from the reaction of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine with n-butyl lithium and sulfur in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature. Its molecular structure was investigated by means of single crystal X-ray diffraction and quantum chemical DFT methods. The formation of meso-1,2-bis(dimethylamino)-1,2-diphenylethane is likely to be due to an unusual α-deprotonation of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, instead of the well known ortho-lithiation, with a subsequent oxidative C-C coupling of the anions. Ab initio calculations of the corresponding α- and o-deprotonated anions of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine showed the former to be more stable than the latter, due to delocalisation of the negati…
Thermal and Photoinduced Electron Transfer in Directional Bis(terpyridine)ruthenium(II)–(Bipyridine)platinum(II) Complexes
2013
Metalloligands L1 and L2 consisting of directional bis(terpyridine)ruthenium(II) units and bipyridine moieties were constructed by amide formation. From these metalloligands two Ru–Pt heterobimetallic complexes 1 and 2 were derived by a building-block method by means of platination with [PtCl2(dmso)2]. Both bimetallic complexes 1 and 2 feature metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorptions, and emission occurs at room temperature in fluid solution from 3MLCT(Ru) states in all cases. Energy transfer from platinum to ruthenium is observed in 2 but not in 1 (light harvesting). The one-electron-reduced species [1]– and [2]– were prepared by reduction of 1 and 2 with decamethylcobaltocene. E…
Imidotungsten(VI) complexes with chelating phenols as ROMP catalysts
2011
Abstract Tungsten(VI) complexes of the type [W(NPh)Cl3(L)] (L = chelating phenolate) were studied as catalyst precursors for ROMP of 2-norbornene, dicyclopentadiene and 5-vinyl-2-norbornene. These compounds form active catalysts when treated by ethyl magnesium bromide. Moreover, polymerisations can be run under ambient atmosphere without complicated inert atmosphere techniques. Synthesis and crystal structure of a new precursor complex [W(NPh)Cl3(LS)] (LS = 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(phenylthiomethyl)phenolate) are also described.
Applications and stereoselective syntheses of P-chirogenic phosphorus compounds.
2016
International audience; Phosphorus compounds bearing chirality on the P-center are usually qualified as P-chirogenic or P-stereogenic. This chemical class concerns natural products, agrochemistry, molecular materials, biology and pharmacy, although it is certainly in coordination chemistry and in asymmetric catalysis using chiral transition metal complexes that P-chirogenic phosphorus compounds are the most used. The chiral phosphine ligands and their uses in asymmetric metal-catalyzed reactions have been widely reviewed in literature. However, an overview covering the applications as well as the stereoselective syntheses of all classes of phosphorus compounds has not yet been provided. Thi…
Bidirectional Chemo-Switching of Spin State in a Microporous Framework
2009
The ins and outs of spin: Using the microporous coordination polymer {Fe(pz)[Pt(CN)(4)]} (1, pz=pyrazine), incorporating spin-crossover subunits, two-directional magnetic chemo-switching is achieved at room temperature. In situ magnetic measurements following guest vapor injection show that most guest molecules transform 1 from the low-spin (LS) state to the high-spin (HS) state, whereas CS(2) uniquely causes the reverse HS-to-LS transition.
