Chiral and Racemic Spin Crossover Polymorphs in a Family of Mononuclear Iron(II) Compounds
2017
[EN] Understanding the origin of cooperativity and the equilibrium temperature of transition (T1/2) displayed by the spin-crossover (SCO) compounds as well as controlling these parameters are of paramount importance for future applications. For this task, the occurrence of polymorphism, presented by a number of SCO complexes, may provide deep insight into the influence of the supramolecular organization on the SCO behavior. In this context, herein we present a novel family of mononuclear octahedral FeII complexes with formula cis- [Fe(bqen)(NCX)2], where bqen is the chelating tetradentate ligand N,N¿-bis(8-quinolyl)ethane-1,2-diamine and X = S, Se. Depending on the preparation method, these…
Electron-Sponge Behavior, Reactivity and Electronic Structures of Cobalt-Centered Cubic Co9Te6(CO)8 Clusters
2008
Extended investigations of the reaction sequence [Cp′2Nb(Te2)H]/CH3Li/[Co2(CO)8] (Cp′ = tBuC5H4) led to the identification of Lin[3] {3 = [Co9Te6(CO)8]; n = 1, 2} salts through their transformation with [PPN]Cl into [PPN]n[3] (PPN = Ph3PNPPh3). These compounds form in the solid state columnar ([PPN][3]) or undulated 2D ([PPN]2[3]) supramolecular networks. Electrochemical studies of [Cp*2Nb(CO)2][3] (Cp* = C5Me5) or [Na(THF)6][3] revealed the presence of the redox couples [3]–/[3]2–/[3]3–/[3]4–/[3]5– regardless of the nature of the cation, whereas in the anodic part oxidative degradation of the cluster takes place. This behavior is in agreement with the observation that [3]– containing salts…
From self-inclusion and host-guest complexes to channel structures
2012
Various supramolecular interactions are applied as driving forces in self-assembly and molecular recognition processes. Single crystal X-ray diffraction method is especially important for solid-state studies of non-covalent interactions as it reveals their influence on the molecular and supramolecular structures. This paper discusses structures of two completely different types of compounds in which a variety of intermolecular interactions are involved. It will be shown that strong and weak intermolecular hydrogen bonds in N-alkylammonium resorcinarene salts, depending on the type of anion, inclusion of resorcinarene upper rim pendant group or solvent molecules into the cavity, strongly aff…
Mechanism and cis/trans Selectivity of Vinylogous Nazarov-type [6π] Photocyclizations
2017
Vinylogous Nazarov-type cyclizations yield seven-membered rings from butadienyl vinyl ketones via a photochemical [6π] photocyclization followed by subsequent isomerization steps. The mechanism of this recently developed method was investigated using unrestricted DFT, SF-TDDFT, and CASSCF/NEVPT2 calculations, suggesting three different pathways that lead either to pure trans, pure cis, or mixed cis/trans configured products. Singlet biradicals or zwitterions occur as intermediates. The computational results are supported by deuterium-labeling experiments.
A hybrid magnet with coexistence of ferromagnetism and photoinduced Fe(iii) spin-crossover
2011
International audience; The insertion of a [Fe(sal2-trien)]+ complex cation into a 2D oxalate network results in a hybrid magnet with coexistence of magnetic ordering and photoinduced spin-crossover (LIESST effect) in compound [FeIII(sal2-trien)][MnIICrIII(ox)3]*(CH2Cl2) (1). A complete photomagnetic characterization together with a detailed structural analysis of the low-spin (LS) and high-spin (HS) structures of 1 is presented in order to understand such unusual behavior. This very rare and unexpected property in a FeIII spin-crossover complex, has been attributed to the strong distortion exhibited by the metastable HS state. Furthermore, 1 has shown that, in contrast to what has been pre…
Towards the synthesis of substituted porphyrins by a pyridyl group bearing a reactive functionality
2010
Pyridyl-substituted porphyrins bearing a reactive functionality were prepared via Suzuki cross-coupling reactions and resulted in very good yields. These compounds are precursors of new porphyrin architectures able to coordinate two metals: one in the porphyrin core and the second around the pyridyl moiety. During the coupling reactions, a higher reactivity of a chloro picolyl group was evidenced compared to a bromo function on the same reacting molecule.
Asymmetric Synthesis of Spiro β-Lactamsviaa Squaramide- Catalyzed Sulfa-Michael Addition/Desymmetrization Protocol
2016
An efficient asymmetric synthesis of spirocyclohexenone β-lactams bearing three contiguous stereocenters has been achieved in moderate to good yields and high stereoselectivities. The protocol involves the combination of a squaramide-catalyzed sulfa-Michael addition under desymmetrization via a dynamic kinetic resolution of racemic 2,5-cyclohexadienones.
Aza and cyanobridged tripodal dinuclear copper(II) complexes: Electrochemical studies and structural evidence for an original azacyanocarbanion
2014
International audience; The reactivity of the mononuclear [Cu(TMPA)(L)] n+ complex (TMPA: tris(2-methylpyridine) amine, L: CH3CN, H2O) towards two different bridging species (tetracyanoethylene, 4,40-bipyridine) was investigated. The dinuclear complex [(mu-4,40-bipy)Cu-II(TMPA)(2)](CF3SO3)(4) (1) was synthesised and analysed by Xray diffraction (XRD). Magnetic studies revealed that this derivative displays very weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the two metal centres (2J = -0.69 cm(-1)). Solution studies (EPR spectroscopy and voltammetry) evidenced the lability of the bridged neutral bipyridine ligand in acetonitrile. The reaction of TCNE (TCNE: tetracyanoethylene) with the copper(…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of [Co(bpcam)2]ClO4·dmso·H2O, [Co(bpcam)2]2[Co(NCS)4]·dmso·H2O and [Ni(bpcam)2]·H2O [Hbpcam = bi…
2017
The preparation, spectroscopic characterization, structural study and magnetic investigation of three new complexes of formula [Co(bpcam)2]ClO4·dmso·H2O (1), [Co(bpcam)2]2[Co(NCS)4]·dmso·H2O (2) and [Ni(bpcam)2]·H2O (3) [Hbpcam = bis(2-pyrimidylcarbonyl)amide] are reported. Each bpcam group in 1–3 acts as a tridentate ligand being coordinated to the cobalt(III) (1 and 2)/nickel(II) (3) ions through three nitrogen atoms in a mer-arrangement. Six-coordinate cobalt(III) and nickel(II) occur in 1 and 3 respectively, whereas six-coordinate cobalt(III) and four-coordinate cobalt(II) coexist in 2. Cyclic voltammetry of 1 in acetonitrile shows the occurrence of one quasi reversible CoIII ↔ CoII pro…
