Spin crossover (SCO) iron(II) coordination polymer chain: Synthesis, structural and magnetic characterizations of [Fe(abpt)2(μ-M(CN)4)] (M=PtII and N…
2013
Abstract New iron(II) coordination polymeric neutral chain of formula [Fe(abpt) 2 (μ-M(CN) 4 )], with M = Pt II ( 1 ), Ni II ( 2 ) and abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole, have been synthesized and characterized by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The two compounds are isostructural as deduced from a Rietveld analysis of X-ray powder diffraction data of 2 simulated from the single crystal structure of 1 . The crystal packing of 1 is formed by regular chains running along the crystallographic [−1 0 1] direction where the planar [Pt(CN) 4 ] 2− anion acts as a μ 2 -bridging ligand via two nitrogen atoms of two different trans cyano groups, whi…
A versatile rigid binucleating ligand for Rh2(μ-Cl)2 moieties: its application as a catalyst in hydrogenation and cyclopropanation
2003
A rigid non-deforming "MCl 2 M" binucleating ligand [7,8-μ-S(4'-C 6 H 3 (CH 3 ))S-C 2 B 9 H 1 0 ] - able to held the two rhodium atoms in a cooperative distance has been synthesized. The original two bridging chlorides are retained in [Rh 2 (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 Cl 2 {7,8-μ-S(4'-C 6 H 3 (CH 3 ))S-C 2 B 9 H 1 0 }] + . Hydrogenation of 1-hexene is 10 times faster with [Rh 2 (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 Cl 2 {7,8-μ-S(4'-C 6 H 3 (CH 3 ))S-C 2 B 9 H 1 0 }] + than with [Rh 2 (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 Cl 4 ]. A hydrogenation mechanism has been proposed which assumes that [Rh 2 (C 5 Me 5 ) 2 (Cl)(H){7,8-μ-S(4'-C 6 H 3 (CH 3 ))S-C 2 B 9 H 1 0 }] + is the first generated species in the process.
Novel Stannatrane N(CH2CMe2O)2(CMe2CH2O)SnO-t-Bu and Related Oligonuclear Tin(IV) Oxoclusters. Two Isomers in One Crystal
2016
The syntheses of the alkanolamine N(CH2CMe2OH)2(CMe2CH2OH) (1), of the stannatrane N(CH2CMe2O)2(CMe2CH2O)SnO-t-Bu (2), and of the trinuclear tin oxocluster 3 consisting of the two isomers [(μ3-O)(O-t-Bu){Sn(OCH2CMe2)(OCMe2CH2)2N}3] (3a) and [(μ3-O)(μ3-O-t-Bu){Sn(OCH2CMe2)(OCMe2CH2)2N}3] (3b) as well as the isolation of a few crystals of the hexanuclear tin oxocluster [LSnOSn(OH)3LSnOH]2 [L = N(CH2CMe2O)2(CMe2CH2O)] (4) are reported. The compounds were characterized by 1H, 13C, 15N, and 119Sn (1–3) nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (1–4). A graph set analysis was performed for compoun…
Hydrogen-bonded networks of [Fe(bpp)2]2+spin crossover complexes and dicarboxylate anions: structural and photomagnetic properties
2016
The paper reports the syntheses, crystal structures, thermal and (photo)magnetic properties of spin crossover salts of formula [Fe(bpp)2](C6H8O4)·4H2O (1·4H2O), [Fe(bpp)2](C8H4O4)·2CH3OH·H2O (2·2MeOH·H2O) and [Fe(bpp)2](C8H4O4)·5H2O (2·5H2O) (bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3yl)pyridine; C6H8O4 = adipate dianion; C8H4O4 = terephthalate dianion). The salts exhibit an intricate network of hydrogen bonds between low-spin iron(II) complexes and carboxylate dianions, with solvent molecules sitting in the voids. Desolvation is accompanied by a low-spin (LS) to high-spin (HS) transformation in the materials. The dehydrated phase 2 undergoes a two-step transition with a second step showing thermal hysteresis…
A Ferroelectric Iron(II) Spin Crossover Material
2017
A dual-function material in which ferroelectricity and spin crossover coexist in the same temperature range has been obtained. Our synthetic strategy allows the construction of acentric crystal structures in a predictable way and is based on the high directionality of hydrogen bonds. The well-known iron(II) spin crossover complex [Fe(bpp)₂]²+ (bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine), a four-fold noncentrosymmetric H-bond donor, was combined with a disymmetric H-bond acceptor such as the isonicotinate (isonic) anion to afford [Fe(bpp)₂](isonic)₂·2H₂O. This low-spin iron(II) compound crystallises in the acentric nonpolar I-4 space group and shows piezoelectricity and SHG properties. Upon dehydra…
Interplay of hydrogen bonding and π–π interactions in the molecular complex of 2,6-lutidine N-oxide and water
2006
Abstract The crystal and molecular structure of 2,6-lutidine N-oxide monohydrate (1) has been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Each water molecule is acting as bridging ligand between the N→O moieties of two 2,6-lutidine N-oxide molecules through moderate strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding (O–H⋯O, O⋯O distances are 2.787(2) and 2.832 (2) A) giving rise to a one-dimensional (1D) polymeric helical chain. A two-dimensional (2D) layered network is then formed by self-assembly of 1D helical chains via strong π–π interactions of the aromatic rings (interplanar distances 3.385 A). The molecular structure of 1 is compared with that for the already reported molecular structures of 2-ace…
Sulfur, tin and gold derivatives of 1-(2'-pyridyl)-ortho-carborane, 1-R-2-X-1,2-C2B10H10 (R = 2'-pyridyl, X = SH, SnMe3 or AuPPh3).
2004
Reaction of the lithium salt of 1-(2'-pyridyl)-ortho-carborane, Li[1-R-1,2-C(2)B(10)H(10)](R = 2'-NC(5)H(4)), with sulfur, followed by hydrolysis, gave the mercapto-o-carborane, 1-R-2-SH-1,2-C(2)B(10)H(10) which forms chiral crystals containing helical chains of molecules linked by intermolecular S-H...N hydrogen bonds. The cage C(1)-C(2) and exo C(2)-S bond lengths (1.730(3) and 1.775(2)[Angstrom], respectively) are indicative of exo S=C pi bonding. The tin derivative 1-R-2-SnMe(3)-1,2-C(2)B(10)H(10), prepared from Li[1-R-1,2-C(2)B(10)H(10)] and Me(3)SnCl, crystallises with no significant intermolecular interactions. The pyridyl group lies in the C(1)-C(2)-Sn plane, oriented to minimise th…
Photochemistry and Redox Chemistry of an Unsymmetrical Bimetallic Copper(I) Complex
2016
The bimetallic copper(I) complex Cu2L2 (cis-1) is formed with high diasteroselectivity from [Cu(NCCH3)4][BF4] and HL (4-tert-butyl phenyl(pyrrolato-2-yl-methylene)amine) in a kinetically controlled reaction. cis-1 features a rather short Cu···Cu distance of 2.4756(6) A and is weakly emissive at room temperature in solution. Oxidatively triggered disproportionation of cis-1 yields elemental copper and the mononuclear copper(II) complex CuL2 (trans-2). One-electron reduction of trans-2 gives cuprate [2]– with a bent bis(pyrrolato) coordinated copper(I) entity. The imine donor atoms of [2]– can insert an additional copper(I) ion giving exclusively the bimetallic complex cis-1 closing the oxida…
On the Road to MM′X Polymers: Redox Properties of Heterometallic Ni···Pt Paddlewheel Complexes
2014
On the quest of heterometallic mixed-valence MM'X chains, we have prepared two stable discrete bimetallic compounds: the reduced (PPN)[ClNi(μ-OSCPh)4Pt] (PPN = bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium; OSCPh = benzothiocarboxylato) and the oxidized [(H2O)Ni(μ-OSCPh)4PtCl] species. The role of the aqua and chlorido axial ligands is crucial to facilitate oxidation of the {Ni(μ-OSCPh)4Pt} core. Experimental and theoretical analyses indicate that a NiPt-Cl/Cl-NiPt isomerization process occurs in the oxidized species. The electronic structure of the reduced system shows two unpaired electrons, one located in a d(x(2)-y(2)) orbital of the Ni(II) ion and a second in the antibonding d(z(2)-dz(2)) combination…

International audience; The syntheses, crystal structures, and physical properties of the series of radical salts made with bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF or ET) and monosubstituted α-Keggin polyoxoanions of formula [XZ(H2O)M11O39]5- (XZM11 = Si(IV)Fe(III)Mo11, Si(IV)Cr(III)W11, P(V)Con(II)W11, P(V)Ni(II)W11, P(V)Cu(II)W11 P(V)Zn(II)W11, P(V)Mn(II)W11, and P(V)Mn(II)Mo11) containing a magnetic metal ion Z on a peripheral octahedral site of the Keggin union are reported. They all crystallize in two related series called α2 and α3. The general structure consists of alternating layers of the organic donor and the Keggin polyoxometalates. While the stoichiometry and α-packing a…
