Chiral hemicucurbit[8]uril as an anion receptor: selectivity to size, shape and charge distribution
2017
A novel eight-membered macrocycle of the hemicucurbit[n]uril family, chiral (all-R)-cyclohexanohemicucurbit[8]uril (cycHC[8]) binds anions in a purely protic solvent with remarkable selectivity. The cycHC[8] portals open and close to fully encapsulate anions in a 1 : 1 ratio, resembling a molecular Pac-Man™. Comprehensive gas, solution and solid phase studies prove that the binding is governed by the size, shape and charge distribution of the bound anion. Gas phase studies show an order of SbF6− ≈ PF6− > ReO4− > ClO4− > SCN− > BF4− > HSO4− > CF3SO3− for anion complexation strength. An extensive crystallographic study reveals the preferred orientations of the anions within the octahedral cav…
Understanding distortions of inorganic substructures in chloridobismuthates(III)
2021
The molar ratio variations of organic and inorganic reactants of chloridobismuthates(III) with N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium, [(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3]2+, and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium, [NH2C{N(CH3)2}2]+, cations lead to the formation of four different products, namely, tris(N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium) bis[hexachloridobismuthate(III)], [(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3]3[BiCl6]2 (1), catena-poly[N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium [[tetrachloridobismuthate(III)]-μ-chlorido]], {[(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3][BiCl5]} n (2), tris(N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium) tri-μ-chlorido-bis[trichloridobismuthate(III)], [NH2C{N(CH3)2}2]3[Bi2Cl9] (3), and catena-poly[N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium [[dichloridobismutha…
Copper(II) Polyamine Complexes withN-Benzothiazole Sulfonamides as Counterions — Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Properties of [Cu(dien)2](L1)2[HL…
2003
Copper(II) complexes of new N-benzothiazole sulfonamides (HL1= N-2-(benzothiazole)naphtalensulfonamide and HL2 = N-2-(6-chlorobenzothiazole)toluenesulfonamide) with ethylenediamine (en) and diethylenetriamine (dien) have been synthesized and characterised. The crystal structures of [Cu(dien)2](L1)2 (1) and [Cu(en)2(H2O)2](L2)2 (2) compounds have been determined. The metal centre adopts a “4+2” distorted octahedral environment in both complexes. Unusually, the sulfonamidate anions act as counterions. Spectroscopic properties are in good agreement with the crystal structures. The superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity of complex 2 has been tested. Kupfer(II)-Polyamin-Komplexe mit N-Benzothi…
trans-Bis(1H-benzimidazole-1-thione-κS)tetrachlorotellurium methanol disolvate
2002
The Te atom in the title complex, trans-[TeCl4(C6H4N2H2CS)2]·2CH4O or C16H20Cl4N4O2S2Te, occupies a special position at a crystallographic inversion centre and has an octahedral coordination formed by four chloro ligands and the S atoms of two benzimidazole–thione molecules. The hydrogen-bond system involving the disordered solvent methanol molecules links the tellurium complexes into the infinite two-dimensional aggregates in the crystal.
Uranyl sorption onto birnessite: A surface complexation modeling and EXAFS study
2014
This work investigates the mechanism of the uranyl interaction with birnessite, one of the most common layer-type MnO2 mineral at the Earth's surface, by coupling macroscopic (surface complexation experiments) and microscopic (EXAFS measurements) approaches. The sorption of uranyl on synthetic hexagonal birnessite, the low-pH birnessite form, was studied under various conditions of pH (3–6), electrolyte backgrounds (0.1 M NaClO4, NaNO3 and Na2CO3), and solid/liquid ratios (from 0.27 to 4.5 g/L). Sorption isotherms exhibit a complex form indicative of at least two types of sorption sites. EXAFS data reveal the presence of two equatorial O shells at ca. 2.32 Å and 2.46 Å for all the samples, …
Raman and optical reflection spectra of germanate and silicate glasses
2005
Abstract Germanate and phosphosilicate glasses made in oxygen surplus conditions were studied by Raman and optical reflection methods. We found that the optical reflection spectra of the germanate glasses are quite similar to the one those of a GeO 2 crystal with the α-quartz structure. The reflection of phosphosilicate glasses is very close to silica glass-related spectra. Hence, the determining influence of the tetrahedral structure on reflection spectra is revealed. The Raman spectra of germanate samples are similar to those reported the one known in the literature. Octahedral entities, namely bands similar to stishovite vibration modes, were difficult to detect in phosphosilicate glasse…
Cleavage of Ge–Ge and Sn–Sn Triple Bonds in Heavy Group 14 Element Alkyne Analogues (EAriPr4)2 (E = Ge, Sn; AriPr4 = C6H3-2,6(C6H3-2,6-iPr2)2) by Rea…
2016
The reactions of heavier group 14 element alkyne analogues (EAriPr4)2 (E = Ge, Sn; AriPr4 = C6H3-2,6-(C6H3-2,6-iPr2)2) with the group 6 transition-metal carbonyls M(CO)6 (M = Cr, Mo, W) under UV irradiation resulted in the cleavage of the E–E triple bond and the formation of the complexes {AriPr4EM(CO)4}2 (1–6), which were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction as well as by IR and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. Single-crystal X-ray structural analyses of 1–6 showed that the complexes have a nearly planar rhomboid M2E2 core with three-coordinate group 14 atoms. The coordination geometry at the group 6 metals is distorted octahedral formed by four carbonyl groups as well as two br…
Two Polymorphic Forms of a Six-Coordinate Mononuclear Cobalt(II) Complex with Easy-Plane Anisotropy: Structural Features, Theoretical Calculations, a…
2016
A mononuclear cobalt(II) complex [Co(3,5-dnb)2(py)2(H2O)2] {3,5-Hdnb = 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid; py = pyridine} was isolated in two polymorphs, in space groups C2/c (1) and P21/c (2). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that 1 and 2 are not isostructural in spite of having equal formulas and ligand connectivity. In both structures, the Co(II) centers adopt octahedral {CoN2O4} geometries filled by pairs of mutually trans terminal 3,5-dnb, py, and water ligands. However, the structures of 1 and 2 disclose distinct packing patterns driven by strong intermolecular O-H···O hydrogen bonds, leading to their 0D→2D (1) or 0D→1D (2) extension. The resulting two-dimensional layers and one-…
Tri- and tetranuclear heteropivalate complexes with core {Fe2Ni O} (x = 1, 2): Synthesis, structure, magnetic and thermal properties
2019
Abstract The reactions of complex [Fe2Ni(O)(Piv)6(Et2O)(H2O)2] (1) with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) gave the following new coordination compounds: the trinuclear complex [Fe2Ni(O)(Piv)6(phen)H2O]·(C2H5)2O (2), the tetranuclear ones [Fe2Ni2(OH)2(Piv)8(phen)2] (3) and [Fe2Ni2(OH)2(Piv)8(bpy)2] (4), depending on the crystallization conditions. According to single crystal X-ray diffraction data, all the compounds have molecular structures. The Mossbauer spectra of 1–3 correspond to high-spin Fe3+ ions in an octahedral environment consisting of oxygen atoms. The DC magnetic susceptibility studies and quantum-chemical analysis of intra- and intermolecular J pathways using…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of bis[μ-bis(3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-N′,N1,N2)] bis[triaqua nickel(II)] tetranitrate
1998
Abstract A new dinuclear nickel(II) coordination compound of formula Ni2(Hpt)2(H2O)6(NO3)4 (Hpt=3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole) was synthesized. The structure was solved at 298 K by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Bisμ-bis(3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-N′,N1,N2) bistriaqua nickel(II) tetranitrate (C14H24N12O18Ni2) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, a=7.2266(1), b=9.9144(1), c=11.2647(1) A, α=66.854(1)°, β=74.000(1)°, γ=86.400(2)°, V=712.42(1) A3, Z=1 (dinuclear units), 2823 reflections (1 > 2σ(I)), R1=0.0442, wR2=0.1197. The Ni(II) ions are bridged by two neutral Hpt ligands coordinating via N1 and N2 in the equatorial plane, Ni(1)-Ni(1)′=4.098(1) A. The Hpt bridging mode is a…
