A mixed-valence Cu(I)–Cu(II) and metal–metal bond containing coordination polymer obtained from an in situ oxidation reaction route
2006
Abstract A new mixed-valence copper coordination polymer with copper–copper metal bonds in a two-dimensional network was generated from an in situ oxidation reaction route under hydrothermal conditions. The synthesis of this coordination polymer demonstrated that the novel compounds that may not be accessible using the known methods could be synthesized via an oxidation reaction route. The reaction conditions are mild enough to keep the building blocks intact during the oxidation and self-assembly process under hydrothermal conditions.
Synthesis, physicochemical and electrochemical properties of metal–metal bonded ruthenium corrole homodimers
2002
Abstract Two diruthenium(III,III) corrole dimers, [(Et 6 Me 2 Cor)Ru] 2 and [(Me 6 Et 2 Cor)Ru] 2 , where Et 6 Me 2 Cor and Me 6 Et 2 Cor are the 2,3,8,12,17,18-hexaethyl-7,13-dimethylcorrole and 8,12-diethyl-2,3,7,13,17,18-hexamethylcorrole trianions, respectively, were synthesized and characterized as to their spectroscopic and electrochemical properties. They exhibit up to three oxidations and two reductions by cyclic voltammetry in CH 2 Cl 2 or pyridine containing 0.1 M TBAP, almost all of which are electrochemically reversible on the voltammetric and/or thin-layer spectroelectrochemical timescale. The two reductions and the first two oxidations involve one-electron transfer processes w…
Metal–Metal Distances, Electron Counts, and Superconducting TC's in AM2B2C
2001
Abstract We present first principles band structure calculations on representative boron carbides belonging to the class of superconducting compounds with the general formula AM 2 B 2 C with A =Lu, La, or Th and M =Ni or Pd. The compounds are analyzed within the framework of the so-called van Hove scenario, where superconductivity is linked to certain kinds of instabilities in the band structure. We attempt to determine why the addition of the extra electron on replacing the rare earth with Th does not make a significant difference to the superconducting properties, and why the compound LaNi 2 B 2 C is not superconducting.
Radical salts of TTF derivatives with the metal-metal bonded [Re2Cl8]2- anion
2008
Abstract Four new salts of the radical cations of TMTSF (tetramethyltetraselenafulvalene), TMTTF (tetramethyltetrathiafulvalene), BEDT-TTF (bisethylenedithiotetrathia-fulvalene) (ET) and o-Me2TTF (o-4,4′-dimethyltetrathiafulvalene) with the metal–metal bonded dianion [Re2Cl8]2− were synthesized, and their structures and physical properties investigated. The structures of these semiconducting salts feature one-dimensional stacking of the donor molecules interleaved with [Re2Cl8]2− anions and interstitial solvent molecules.
