Designing binuclear transition metal complexes: a new example of the versatility of N,N′-bis(2-aminobenzyl)-4,13-diaza-18-crown-6
2005
[Abstract] N,N′-Bis(2-aminobenzyl)-4,13-diaza-18-crown-6 (L) is a versatile receptor able to adapt to the coordinative preferences of different metal cation guests. With first-row transition metal ions, L tends to form binuclear complexes but, depending on the nature of the particular metal ion, the structure of the binuclear complex may be very different. Herein we report a study of the structure and magnetic properties of the corresponding nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes. The X-ray crystal structure of the nickel complex (1), with formula [Ni2(L)(CH3CN)4](ClO4)4·CH3CN, shows that this compound presents a symmetric coordination environment with L adopting an anti arrangement. Each Ni(I…
Oxidation of substituted phenols using copper(II) metallatriangles formed through ligand sharing
2014
Reaction of N(2),N(2')-bis-[(1-butyl-benzimidazol-2yl)methyl]biphenyl-2,2'-dicarboxamide (L) with CuX2⋅nH2O in methanol leads to the assembly of four trinuclear Cu(II) complexes with the general formula [Cu3(L)3X3]⋅3X⋅nH2O⋅mMeCN, where X=Cl(-), Br(-), NO3(-) and C6H5COO(-) and n=0-5, m=0-8 (compounds 1-4, respectively). The structure of one of the complex contains three Cu(II) metal ions at the corners of an equilateral triangle. Each of the copper(II) are coordinated through two benzimidazolyl imine N-atoms and two amide carbonyl O-atoms and the apical position is occupied by an anionic nitrate ion, leading to a distorted square pyramidal environment. The magnetic susceptibility data were …
New BDH-TTP/[MIII(C5O5)3]3– (M = Fe, Ga) Isostructural Molecular Metals
2012
Two new isostructural molecular metals-(BDH-TTP)(6)[M(III)(C(5)O(5))(3)]·CH(2)Cl(2) (BDH-TTP = 2,5-bis(1,3-dithiolan-2-ylidene)-1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene, where M = Fe (1) and Ga (2))-have been prepared and fully characterized. Compound 1 is a molecular conductor showing paramagnetic behavior, which is due to the presence of isolated [Fe(C(5)O(5))(3)](3-) complexes with high-spin S = (5)/(2) Fe(III) metal ions. The conductivity originates from the BDH-TTP organic donors arranged in a κ-type molecular packing. At 4 kbar, compound 1 behaves as a metal down to ∼100 K, showing high conductivity (∼10 S cm(-1)) at room temperature. When applying a pressure higher than 7 kbar, the metal-insulator…
Mass spectrometric studies on small open-chain piperazine-containing ligands and their transition metal complexes
2001
Electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry was used to characterize the complexes formed between open-chain piperazine-containing ligands and transition metal salts (Cobalt, Copper, Zinc, and Cadmium as chlorides, nitrates, and acetates). Only single-charged complexes were observed, formed of one ligand (L) and mainly one metal ion (M). Since the net charge of the complexes was one, a counterion (X) was attached to some of the complexes, with formation of [L + M + X]+ complexes, and a proton was lost from others, as in [L − H + M]+ complexes. In most cases the composition of the complexes was more dependent on the ligand than the metal salt. Collisio…
Spin Crossover in a Supramolecular Fe4II [2×2] Grid Triggered by Temperature, Pressure, and Light
2000
A multiplex electronic switch on the molecular level has been realized by using a tetranuclear FeII complex of the [2×2] grid type. The four metal ions can be switched stepwise between their high-spin and low-spin states by temperature, pressure, and light, thus representing a triple level, triple switch system as illustrated in the picture.
Heats and Entropies of Reaction of Transition Metal Ions with Ethylenediamine
1960
THE heats of formation of complexes between ligands and metal ions are very important to further the ligand field-theory and check its implications. Until now, only the heats of hydration of the first transition group ions have been used for this purpose1 as the thermochemical data on the complexes formed by ligands other than water are very incomplete. The transition metal complexes of ethylenediamine, which have a very nearly octahedral configuration, could also be fruitfully studied in terms of ligand field-theory. Unfortunately only the thermal data on nickel (II), copper (II) and zinc (II) complexes are known2, and so the formation constants have been used instead of the values of enth…
Advanced Functional Structures Based on Interpolyelectrolyte Complexes
2013
This review considers interpolyelectrolyte complexes, with a particular emphasis on advanced macromolecular co-assemblies based on polyionic species with nonlinear topology and on polymer–inorganic hybrids formed by interpolyelectrolyte complexes containing metal ions and/or metal nanoparticles.
A novel approach for obtaining α,β-diaminophosphonates bearing structurally diverse side chains and their interactions with transition metal ions stu…
2020
Aminophosphonates are an important group of building blocks in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry. Novel representatives of this class of compounds containing nontypical side chains are still needed. The aza-Michael-type addition of amines to phosphonodehydroalanine derivatives provides a simple and effective approach for synthesizing N′-substituted α,β-diaminoethylphosphonates and thus affords general access to aminophosphonates bearing structurally diverse side chains. Thermodynamic analysis of the chosen aminophosphonates at physiological pH proves that they serve as potent chelators for copper(II) ions and moderate chelators for nickel(II) ions.
Polynitrile anions as ligands: From magnetic polymeric architectures to spin crossover materials
2010
International audience; The use of polynitrile anions as ligands (L) either alone or in combination with neutral co-ligands (L′) is a very promising and appealing strategy to get molecular architectures with different topologies and dimensionalities thanks to their ability to coordinate and bridge metal ions in many different ways. The presence of several potentially coordinating nitrile groups (or even other donor groups as –OH, –SH or –NH2), their rigidity and their electronic delocalization allow the synthesis of original magnetic high dimensional coordination polymers with transition metals ions. Furthermore, these ligands have shown coordinating and bridging capabilities in novel discr…
Metal ion beams from an ECR ion source using volatile compounds
1994
Abstract A new MIVOC method (Metal Ions from Volatile Compounds) at an ECR ion source gives a means to produce highly charged metal ion beams at room temperature conditions. Chemical compounds containing metallic atoms are utilized. The compound has to fulfill the two basic requirements: Vapour pressure of the compound is relatively high at room temperature. Evaporation and diffusion of the compound into the source take place without dissociation of the molecule. Up to present metal ion beams from iron and nickel compounds have been produced. The maximum currents of 56Fe9+ and 58Ni10+ from natural elements were 23.9 μA and 18.7 μA, respectively. First measurements have demonstrated the abil…
