Simultaneous substitution of bridging acetate groups and reversible RhC bond cleavage in [Rh2(O2CCH3)3-{(C6H4)PPh2}(HO2CCH3)2] in the presence of CF…
1993
Abstract The reaction of the monometallated compound [Rh2(O2CCH3)3 {(C6H4)PPh2}(HO2CCH3)2] (1) with CF3CO2H at room temperature yields [Rh2(O2CCF3)3{(C6H4)PPh2}(HO2CCF3)2] (3) as the only isolable product. Compound 3 has been characterized by X-ray methods. 3 crystallizes in the space group P21 / n. It contains three trifluoroacetate groups bridging a Rh4+2 unit with a RhRh bond distance of 2.438(1) Ă; the fourth bridging ligand is a triphenylphosphine metallated at one of the ortho positions. Two molecules of trifluoroacetic acid occupy the axial coordination positions. In addition to the substitution of acetate groups, reversible electrophilic RhC bond activation is observed.

Abstract The compound I(t-Bu2Sn)4I has been synthesized by controlled cleavage of the related cyclotetrastannane (t-Bu2Sn)4 with iodine in toluene. Both compounds have been investigated by mass, NMR and vibrational spectra. I(t-Bu2Sn)4I: δ(119Snterminal) 67.7, δ(Sncentral) 17.4 ppm; 1J(SnSn) 2199 (terminal-central) and 1575 (central-central), 2J(SnSn) 20 (terminal-central), 3J (SnSn) 307 Hz (terminal-terminal); ν(SnSn) 119, ν(SnI) 167 cm−1. (t-Bu2Sn)4: δ(Sn) 87.4 ppm; ν(SnSn) 125 cm−1. The crystal structure of I(t-Bu2Sn)4I has been determined (R = 0.071): bond lengths SnSn 289.5(1) (terminal-central) and 292.4(1) (central-central), SnI 275.3(1) pm. The conformation of the chain ISn…
Electrochemical behavior of layered annulenes
1985
Abstract The cyclic voltammetric behavior of a series of dimeric [14] annulenes was examined and compared with the monomer. The data suggest a signigficant degree of interaction between the annulene rings when a three-carbon chain connects them, little or no interaction with an eight-carbon chain, and weak interaction with a four-carbon chain.
Über polygermane
1986
Abstract The germylene Ph2Ge of Ph2GeHCl and Net3 inserts in excess Ph2GeHCl and forms polygermanes Cl(Ph2Ge)nH. This one-pot reaction and subsequent chlorination to Cl(Ph2Ge)nCl has been optimized. Increasing amounts of NEt3 step up the yields of higher polygermanes. The 13C NMR phenyl signals for C(ipso) shift to low field with increasing chain length. The crystal structures of Cl(Ph2Ge)3,4Cl (R = 0.072 and 0.087) have been determined. The position of Cl(Ph2Ge)4Cl is split off by disorder (main molecule 82%, side molecule 18%). Two crystallographically different molecules of the trigermane are present; the ClGe3Cl chain contains anti-gauche and gauche-gauche conformation respectively (d…
Cyclometallation reactions in complexes of the type Rh(oq)(CO)(P(o-BrC6F4)Ph2)
1986
Abstract The reaction of Rh(oq)(CO)(PCBr) (PCBr = P(o-BrC6F4)Ph2; oq = 8-oxyquinolinte)_ in refluxing toluene in the presence of Et4NBr (1/4 molar ratio) gives Rh(oq)Br(PC) (H2O), PC = P (o-C6F4)Ph2, in practically quantitative yield. The water molecule is readily displaced by various P-donor ligands to give complexes of general formula Rh(oq)Br(PC) PR3 (PR3 = PPh3, P(p-MeC6H4)3, P(p-MeOC6H4)3, P(p-FC6H4)3, P(PMe)3 and P(OPh3). The molecular structure of the compound Rh(oq)Br(PC) (PPh3) has been determined by X-ray methods. Crystals of the title compound are monoclinic, space group P21/n with unit cell dimensions a 11.273(4), b 20.087(8), c 17.471(7) A and β 102.15(8)°. The final R for 2304…
Superoxide dismutase activity of ternary copper complexes of sulfathiazole and imidazole derivatives. Synthesis and properties of [CuL2(R-Him)2] [HL=…
2000
Abstract New ternary copper(II) complexes of sulfathiazole (4-amino-N-(thiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide)(HL) and methyl imidazole derivatives have been synthesised and characterised. The crystal structure of the complex [CuL2(4,4-dmHim)2] (1) [4,4-dmHim=4,4-dimethylimidazoline] has been determined. The copper centre has a quasi regular square planar environment with Cu-nitrogen bond lengths ranging from 1.952 to 2.010 A. From the spectroscopic properties of the complexes [CuL2(1,2-dmHim)2] (2) [1,2-dmHim=1,2-dimethylimidazole] and [CuL2(4-mHim)2] (3) [4-mHim=4-methylimidazole] a distorted tetragonal octahedral geometry is deduced. The compounds showed SOD mimetic activity in fact, a low conc…
Crystal structures and magnetic properties of uniform and alternating azido-bridged (2,2′-bipyridyl)copper(II) chains
1998
Abstract Single crystals of four copper(II) complexes of formula [Cu(bipy)(N3)2]n (1,2), [Cu(bipy)2(N3)(ClO4)] (3) and [Cubipy)2(N3)]ClO4 (4) (bipy=2,2′-bipyridine) were obtained from aqueous solutions containing (2,2′-bipyridyl) copper(II) perchlorate and sodium azide, and their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The structures of compounds 1 and 4 were already known, but the better accuracy of our structural determination of complex 1 led us to reconsider it here. The structures of compounds 1 and 2 are made up of neutral chains of copper(II) ions bridged by two azide groups exhibiting asymmetrical end-on (1) and alternating asymmetrical end-on and end-to-end…
Generation, Characterization, and Electrochemical Behavior of the Palladium-Hydride Cluster [Pd3(dppm)3(3-CO)(3-H)]+ (dppm=Bis(diphenylphosphinometha…
2007
Addition of formate on the dicationic cluster [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3)-CO)](2+) (dppm=bis(diphenylphosphinomethane) affords quantitatively the hydride cluster [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3)-CO)(mu(3)-H)](+). This new palladium-hydride cluster has been characterised by (1)H NMR, (31)P NMR and UV/Vis spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The unambiguous identification of the capping hydride was made from (2)H NMR spectroscopy by using DCO(2) (-) as starting material. The mechanism of the hydride complex formation was investigated by UV/Vis stopped-flow methods. The kinetic data are consistent with a two-step process involving: 1) host-guest interactions between HCO(2) (-) and [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3…
Synthesis of a labile sulfur-centred ligand, [S(H)C(PPh2S)2]−: structural diversity in lithium(i), zinc(ii) and nickel(ii) complexes
2016
A high-yield synthesis of [Li{S(H)C(PPh2S)2}]2 [Li2·(3)2] was developed and this reagent was used in metathesis with ZnCl2 and NiCl2 to produce homoleptic complexes 4 and 5b in 85 and 93% yields, respectively. The solid-state structure of the octahedral complex [Zn{S(H)C(PPh2S)2}2] (4) reveals notable inequivalence between the Zn-S(C) and Zn-S(P) contacts (2.274(1) Å vs. 2.842(1) and 2.884(1) Å, respectively). Two structural isomers of the homoleptic complex [Ni{S(H)C(PPh2S)2}2] were isolated after prolonged crystallization processes. The octahedral green Ni(ii) isomer 5a exhibits the two monoprotonated ligands bonded in a tridentate (S,S',S'') mode to the Ni(ii) centre with three distinctl…
Electrostatic Contribution to the Surface Pressure of Charged Monolayers Containing Polyphosphoinositides
2008
Structural and functional studies of lateral heterogeneity in biological membranes have underlined the importance of membrane organization in biological function. Most inquiries have focused on steric determinants of membrane organization, such as headgroup size and acyl-chain saturation. This manuscript reports a combination of theory and experiment that shows significant electrostatic contributions to surface pressures in monolayers of phospholipids where the charge spacing is smaller than the Bjerrum length. For molecules with steric cross sections typical of phospholipids in the cell membrane (approximately 50 A(2)), only polyphosphoinositides achieve this threshold. The most abundant s…
