Effect of Guest Molecules on Spin Transition Temperature in Loaded Hofmann‐Like Clathrates with Improved Porosity
2020
The synthesis, crystal structure, magnetic and calorimetric studies of a new clathrate compound of the Hofmann-type spin crossover (SCO) metal-organic framework (MOF) {Fe(bpb)[MII(CN)4]}·xGuest (bpb = bis(4-pyridyl)butadiyne, and MII = Ni, Pt) with characteristic fsc topology is reported. The framework {Fe(bpb)[MII(CN)4]} can host up to 1.5 guest molecules of (trifluoromethyl)benzene and display complete one-step cooperative SCO behavior. Our systematic study on {Fe(bpb)[Pt(CN)4]}·xGuest shows a general reciprocal correlation between the SCO temperature with the volume of the guest molecules.
Probing the guest-binding preference of three structurally similar and conformationally adaptive macrocycles.
2019
A hybrid macrocycle was synthesized by combining the repeat units in oxatub[4]arene and zorb[4]arene, and its recognition behavior and conformational analysis were studied. Three structurally similar and conformationally adaptive macrocycles show different guest-binding selectivities and preferences even in a complex mixture containing three macrocycles and three guests.

Versatile behavior of conjugated diynes with zirconocene reactive species
2008
Thermal decomposition of Cp2ZrPh2 in the presence of the buta-1,3-diynes RC≡CC≡CR (R = Ph, SiMe3) can lead to seven- or five-membered metallacycles. In both cases a stable benzo-fused seven-membered zirconacyclocumulene arising from a 2-fold insertion of the triple bonds of the dialkyne in the in situ generated zirconocene benzyne is formed. In the case of Me3SiC≡CC≡CSiMe3 a second minor complex is isolated: a 3-alkynyl-substituted zirconaindene arising from a β monoinsertion of one acetylenic function of the conjugated diyne in the zirconocene benzyne. No stable 2-alkynyl-substituted zirconacycle was isolated. This α monoinsertion complex is an intermediate in the exchange of the metalated…
Isolating reactive metal-based species in Metal-Organic Frameworks - viable strategies and opportunities.
2021
Structural insight into reactive species can be achieved via strategies such as matrix isolation in frozen glasses, whereby species are kinetically trapped, or by confinement within the cavities of host molecules. More recently, Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been used as molecular scaffolds to isolate reactive metal-based species within their ordered pore networks. These studies have uncovered new reactivity, allowed observation of novel metal-based complexes and clusters, and elucidated the nature of metal-centred reactions responsible for catalysis. This perspective considers strategies by which metal species can be introduced into MOFs and highlights some of the advantages and lim…

Stepwise Construction of Heterobimetallic Cages by an Extended Molecular Library Approach.
2017
Two novel heterobimetallic complexes, a trigonal-bipyramidal and a cubic one, have been synthesized and characterized using the same C3-symmetric metalloligand, prepared by a simple subcomponent self-assembly strategy. Adopting the molecular library approach, we chose a mononuclear, preorganized iron(II) complex as the metalloligand capable of self-assembly into a trigonal-bipyramidal or a cubic aggregate upon coordination to cis-protected C2-symmetric palladium(II) or unprotected tetravalent palladium(II) ions, respectively. The trigonal-bipyramidal complex was characterized by NMR and UV–vis spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and single-crystal X-ray diffrac…
Fluorescence Quenching in BODIPYs Having Ir‐ and Rh‐Tethered Complexes
2016
The effect of Rh- and Ir-centers on the optical properties of the BODIPY core has been studied. To this end, novel metal complexes tethered to BODIPY have been prepared through an easy and versatile procedure using N-directed C–H activation reactions. The organometallic moiety has a tremendous influence on the emissive properties of the BODIPY fragment. A photoinduced electron transfer (PET) mechanism is suggested to be the main mechanism responsible for the suppression of the BODIPY fluorescence emission in the newly formed dyads. The efficiency of the PET depends on both the distance between the chromophores in the dyad and the nature of the transition metal (Rh vs. Ir).
Bis(2-methylbenzimidazole-κN1)copper(I) dichlorocuprate(I)
2004
By using alternating-current electrochemical synthesis, crystals of the copper(I) ionic compound composed of [Cu(C8H8N2)2]+ and [CuCl2]− ions have been obtained and structurally investigated. Both crystallographically independent Cu atoms lie on centres of inversion and exhibit the less-common coordination number 2. A linear arrangement of the metal atoms includes two N atoms of the different organic moieties in the [Cu(2-methylbenzimidazole)2]+ cation and two Cl atoms in the case of the inorganic anion.
