Deuterated Molecular Ruby with Record Luminescence Quantum Yield
2017
The recently reported luminescent chromium(III) complex 13+ ([Cr(ddpd)2]3+; ddpd=N,N’-dimethyl-N,N’-dipyridine-2-yl-pyridine-2,6-diamine) shows exceptionally strong near-IR emission at 775 nm in water under ambient conditions (F=11%) with a microsecond lifetime as the ligand design in 13+ effectively eliminates non-radiative decay pathways, such as photosubstitution, back-intersystem crossing, and trigonal twists. In the absence of energy acceptors, such as dioxygen, the remaining decay pathways are energy transfer to high energy solvent and ligand oscillators, namely OH and CH stretching vibrations. Selective deuteration of the solvents and the ddpd ligands probes the efficiency of these o…
Exchange Coupling in Cyano-Bridged Homodinuclear Cu(II) and Ni(II) Complexes: Synthesis, Structure, Magnetism, and Density Functional Theoretical St…
2001
The synthesis and structural characterization of several new cyano-bridged copper(II) and nickel(II) homodinuclear complexes is presented. The measure of magnetic properties for these complexes is complemented with a computational study of the exchange coupling for several model structures representing this family of compounds. The influence of several factors on the coupling constant has been examined, coordination position occupied by the bridging ligand, distortions of the coordination environment, and relative disposition of the cyanide ion with respect to the M-M vector. Comparison of experimental and calculated coupling constants allows for the rationalization of the most relevant fea…
[1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine derivatives as molecular chemosensors for zinc(ii), nitrite and cyanide anions
2009
Three recently prepared tridentate ligands TPF, TPS and TPT, based on the triazolopyridine–pyridine nucleus possessing fluorescent properties, have been tested as chemosensors for metal ions. A particular response is obtained in the case of ZnTPT+2. The Zn2+ TPT 1 : 1 complex has proved to be an efficient chemosensor for anions especially nitrite and cyanide.
Cascade complex formation by phosphate in the cobalt(II)/[30]aneN10 anaerobic system
1993
Abstract The interaction of phosphate with the mono- and binuclear cobalt(II) complexes of [30]aneN 10 (1,4,7,10,13,16,19,22,25,28-decaazacyclotriacontane) has been studied by potentiometry in 0.15 mol dm −3 NaClO 4 solution at 298.15 K under anaerobic conditions. The stable species [CoH 2 ([30]aneN 10 )PO 4 ] + , [CoH 4 ([30]aneN 10 )PO 4 ] 3+ , [Co 2 H([30]aneN 10 )PO 4 ] 2+ , [Co 2 H 2 ([30]aneN 10 )PO 4 ] 3+ and [Co 2 H 3 ([30]aneN 10 )PO 4 ] 4+ , where the phosphate anion is directly bound to the metal ions or acts as a second sphere ligand, are formed and their stability constants have been determined. The results obtained allowed for the selection of suitable conditions for the study…
catena-Poly[[bis(3-pyridylmethanol-κN)copper(II)]-μ-oxalato-1κ2 O 1,O 2:2κ2 O 1′,O 2′]
2007
In the title compound, [Cu(C2O4)(C6H7NO)2] n , the CuII atom is six-coordinated in a slightly deformed elongated octahedral arrangement and the 3-(hydroxymethyl)pyridine ligand, surprisingly, acts as a monodentate ligand coordinated only through the N atom of the pyridine ring. The oxalate ligands, on inversion centres, bridge the metal ions, forming infinite chains. The chains are linked by intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.
Design of single chain magnets through cyanide-bearing six-coordinate complexes
2005
Abstract The design and preparation of stable cyanide-bearing six-coordinate complexes of formula [MIII(L)(CN)x](x + l − m)− (M = trivalent transition metal ion and L = polydentate blocking ligand) are summarized here. Their use as ligands towards either fully hydrated metal ions or coordinatively unsaturated preformed species, to afford a wide variety of low-dimensional metal assemblies whose nuclearity, dimensionality and magnetic properties can be tuned, is also reviewed. Special emphasis is put on the appropriate choice of the end-cap ligand L whose denticity determines the number of coordinated cyanide groups in the mononuclear precursors. Among the different new spin topologies obtain…
Inverted molecular cups: 1-D and 2-D Ag(I) coordination polymers from resorcinarene bis-thiacrowns
2016
Resorcinarene bis-thiacrown hosts 1–3 were prepared and crystallized with silver trifluoroacetate yielding one and two dimensional Ag coordination polymers. The complexation of silver in exo-cavity fashion folds the thiacrown bridges inwards transforming the resorcinarene hosts into inverted molecular cups. The silver cations were coordinated to the resorcinarene ligands and trifluoroacetate anions, which act as monodentate or bidendate bridging ligands between the metal ions. Argentophilic Ag⋯Ag (2.93–3.38 A) interactions supported by two bridging carboxylate anions were found in two of the structures, whereas longer Ag⋯Ag distances were observed if only one anion connected the silver cati…
DNA-binding of nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes: structure-affinity relationships
2013
Abstract Nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes with the same ligands normally display analogous coordination geometry and binding mode toward DNA. However, although qualitatively alike in structure and properties, different DNA-binding ability has often been observed. This review surveys the most recent examples of binding of the three metal ions complexed with monodentate and chelating bidentate to tetradentate ligands to DNA. An attempt has also been made to rationalize the observed trend in the values of the intrinsic DNA-binding constant, Kb, in terms of structural and chemical features.
Characterization of complexes formed between [Me2Sn(IV)]2+ and carboxymethylcelluloses.
2006
Complexes formed between carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and the [Me(2)Sn(IV)]2+ cation have been prepared in the solid state and characterized by FTIR and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The complexes contained CMC with varying molar weight and degree of carboxylation, and the complexes were isolated both from acidic and from neutral solutions at varying metal-to-ligand ratios. The characteristic vibration bands of the ligands were identified from their pH-dependent FTIR spectra. In the organotin(IV) complexes obtained at pH approximately 2, the -COO- moieties were found to be coordinated in a monodentate manner, and the band characteristic of the protonated (unbound) -COO- group(s) was also identifi…
Co-existence of ferro- and antiferromagnetic interactions in a hexanuclear mixed-valence CoIII2MnII2MnIV2 cluster sustained by a multidentate Schiff …
2019
The successful utilization of the “direct synthesis” approach yielded the unprecedented hexanuclear complex of formula [Co2MnII2MnIV2(L1)4Cl2(μ3-O)2(dmf)4]·2dmf (1) (H3L is the Schiff base derived from the condensation of salicylaldehyde and 3-aminopropane-1,2-diol). Single crystal X-ray analysis revealed that 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system P21/c and it contains a rare mixed-valence {CoIII2MnII2MnIV2(μ2-O)8(μ3-O)2} core where all metal ions are linked through the phenolato and alkoxo groups of the L3− ligand. Besides the charge balance resulting from the X-ray structure, the oxidation state of the metal ions has been confirmed by XPS spectroscopy. Cryomagnetic studies indicate the …
