Photoswitching of the antiferromagnetic coupling in an oxamato-based dicopper(ii) anthracenophane
2011
Thermally reversible photomagnetic (ON/OFF) switching behavior has been observed in a dinuclear oxamatocopper(ii) anthracenophane upon UV light irradiation and heating; the two CuII ions (SCu = 1/2) that are antiferromagnetically coupled in the dicopper(ii) metallacyclic precursor (ON state) become uncoupled in the corresponding [4+4] photocycloaddition product (OFF state), as substantiated from both experimental and theoretical studies. © 2011 The Royal Society of Chemistry.
Unsymmetrically Substituted Bis(phosphino)Ferrocenes Triggering Through-Space 31(P, P′)-Nuclear Spin Couplings and Encapsulating Coinage Metal Cations
2021
International audience; We describe unsymmetrically substituted di-tert-butylated 1,1'-bis(phosphino)ferrocenes, with phosphino substituents R = [5-methyl]-2-furyl = Fu, and R' = phenyl (4a), i-propyl (4b). A modular synthetic approach was applied from the di-tert-butylated ferrocene platform (1), which lead to the formation of new diphosphines by using 1,1'bis(diiodo)-3,3'-bis(tert-butyl)ferrocene (2) as synthetic precursor. In contrast to the cousin non-alkylated unsymmetrically substituted diphosphino-ferrocenes which were reported up to now, these diphosphines showed strong (31 P, P')nonbonded (" ug-p e") nuclear spin-spin coupling. The strength of such internuclear spin-spin coupling c…
A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study of the Ammonium Bifluoride Catalyzed Regioselective Synthesis of Quinoxalines and Pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazines
2015
International audience; Ammonium bifluoride was efficiently used (at a 0.5 mol % loading) to catalyze the cyclocondensation between 1,2-arylenediamines and 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds at room temperature in methanol-water, affording quinoxalines and pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazines in excellent yields. Importantly, 2,8-disubstituted quinoxalines and 3-substituted pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazines were regioselectively formed by reacting aryl glyoxals with 3-methyl-1,2-phenylenediamine and 2,3-diaminopyridine, respectively. Analysis of the DFT reactivity indices allowed to explain the catalytic role of ammonium bifluoride.
A rare polymeric azido-bridged copper(II) chain with a pentameric repeating unit: Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties
2013
International audience; The novel polymeric chain copper(II) complex [Cu4(μ-Mesalpn)2(μ1,1,1-N3)2(μ1,1-N3)2Cu]n (1) was prepared by the reaction of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O with Mesalpn in the presence of an excess of NaN3. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study showed an unusual 1D polymeric chain based on pentanuclear Cu5 units with both μ1,1,1-N3 and μ1,1-N3 bridges, and with three independent Cu(II) ions presenting three different coordination numbers (4, 5 and 6). The magnetic susceptibility data show the presence of dominant anti-ferromagnetic interactions.
Reappraising Schmidpeter's bis(iminophosphoranyl)phosphides: coordination to transition metals and bonding analysis
2020
The synthesis and characterization of a range of bis(iminophosphoranyl)phosphide (BIPP) group 4 and coinage metals complexes is reported. BIPP ligands bind group 4 metals in a pseudo fac-fashion, and the central phosphorus atom enables the formation of d0–d10 heterobimetallic complexes. Various DFT computational tools (including AIM, ELF and NCI) show that the phosphorus–metal interaction is either electrostatic (Ti) or dative (Au, Cu). A bridged homobimetallic Cu–Cu complex was also prepared and its spectroscopic properties were investigated. The theoretical analysis of the P–P bond in BIPP complexes reveals that (i) BIPP are closely related to ambiphilic triphosphenium (TP) cations; (ii) …
Formation of dibutyl carbonate and butylcarbamate via CO2 insertion in titanium(IV) butoxide and reaction with n-butylamine
2016
Abstract The species resulting from insertion of 12CO2 and 13CO2 into titanium(IV) butoxide is for the first time fully characterized by means of infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Results show formation of Ti-monobutylcarbonate, that easily undergoes nucleophilic attack by an aliphatic amine. The hydrolysis of the resulting species produces butylcarbamate and dibutylcarbonate as the only main products. Characterization results of the carbonate-like adduct, along with its reactivity with amine molecules open the route to new ways of CO2 utilization as building block for valuable organic compounds.
Protonation and Electrochemical Properties of Pyridyl- and Sulfonatophenyl-Substituted Porphyrins in Nonaqueous Media
2017
International audience; The protonation and electrochemical properties of positively charged and negatively charged porphyrins are reported in up to five different nonaqueous solvents. The positively charged porphyrins are represented by mono- and di-pyridyl derivatives having the formula Pyx(PhMe)4-xPM, where P=the dianion of the porphyrin macrocycle, PhMe is a meso-tolyl group, Py a meso-pyridyl group, x=1 or 2, and M=H2, NiII, CuII, ZnII, or CoII. The negatively charged porphyrins are comprised of meso-tetrasulfonato derivatives having the formula [(R)4(TPPS)H2]4−(X+)4, where [(TPPS)H2]4− represents the porphyrin with four SO3− groups on the meso-phenyl substituents of the macrocycle, R=…
Theoretical Investigation of the Low-Energy States of CpMoCl(PMe 3 ) 2 and Their Role in the Spin-Forbidden Addition of N 2 and CO
2003
International audience; A recent computational investigation of Jahn−Teller effects in unsaturated 16-electron d4d6 [CpMLn] complexes (Abu-Hasanayn, F.; Cheong, P.; Oliff, M. Angew. Chem.2002, 41, 2120) highlighted the typical presence of two spin-triplet and two singlet states of competing stability in these complexes and pointed out the necessity to account for more than one electronic state in studies thereof. Consequently, we have reinvestigated the addition of N2 to all the four low-energy states of CpMoCl(PH3)2, a reaction for which previously only one singlet and one triplet state have been considered (Keogh, D. W.; Poli, R. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1997, 119, 2516). The present study was pe…
Supramolecular open-framework architectures based on dicarboxylate H-bond acceptors and polytopic cations with three/four N–H+donor units
2015
International audience; Supramolecular assemblages based on anionic H-acceptors and cationic H-donors have been envisioned to elaborate open frameworks maintained by ionic H-bonds. Combinations of di-anionic chloranilate (CA2-), oxalate (Ox2-), or terephthalate (BDC2-) and trisimidazolium or tetrapyridinium derivatives (three and four N-H+ donors, respectively) yielded five architectures of formulae [(H3TrIB)(CA)1.5[middle dot]2DMF[middle dot]2.5H2O] (1), [(H4Tetrapy)(CA)2[middle dot]3DMF] (2), [(H3TrIB)(HOx)(Ox)[middle dot]5H2O] (3), [(H4Tetrapy)(Ox)2[middle dot]5H2O] (4), and [(H4Tetrapy)(BDC)2(H2O)[middle dot]1DMF[middle dot]3H2O] (5) (with TrIB = 1,3,5-trisimidazolylbenzene and Tetrapy …
Half-sandwich complexes of molybdenum-(III), -(IV) and -(V) with P–O and P–N bifunctional ligands Ph2PCH2X (X = 2-oxazolinyl, or C(O)NPh2)
2000
International audience; The reaction of the ligands Ph2PCH2X (X = 2-oxazolinyl, I; or C(O)NPh2, II) with the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) precursors [Mo(η-C5R5)(μ-Cl)2]2 (R = H or Me) has been investigated. Ligand I reacts with both complexes to form the corresponding adducts [Mo(η-C5R5)Cl2(Ph2PCH2C3H4NO)] (R = H, 1; or Me, 2). The reaction between I and [MoCp*Cl4] (Cp* = η-C5Me5) affords [MoCp*Cl4(Ph2PCH2C3H4NO-κ1P)] as a kinetic isomer, which then transforms quantitatively to [MoCp*Cl3(Ph2PCH2C3H4NO-κ2P,N)]+Cl−, 3. Ligand II reacts with [MoCp(μ-Cl)2]2 (Cp = η-C5H5) to afford the adduct [CpMoCl2{Ph2PCH2C(O)NPh2-κ2P,O}], 4, as an equilibrium mixture of two isomers. Longer reaction times in…
