Synthesis of [5]Rotaxanes Containing Bi- and Tridentate Coordination Sites in the Axis

2010

A new example of a linear [5]rotaxane has been synthesized by using the traditional "gathering-and-threading" approach but based on an unusual axle incorporating a symmetrical bis(bidentate) chelating fragment built on a 4,7-phenanthroline core. The stoppering reaction is particularly noteworthy since, instead of using a trivial bulky stopper as precursor to the blocking group, two semistoppered copper-complexed [2]pseudorotaxanes (namely [2]semirotaxanes) are used, which leads to the desired [5]rotaxane in good yield. The efficiency of the method relies on the use of "click" chemistry, with its very mild conditions, and on the protection by a transition-metal (copper(I)) of the various coo…

Cu2+ Coordination Properties of a 2-Pyridine Heptaamine Tripod: Characterization and Binding Mechanism

2009

The synthesis, protonation, and Cu(2+) coordination chemistry of a tripodal heptaamine ligand (L(1)) functionalized with 2-pyridine fragments at the ends of its three branches are reported. L(1) presents six relatively high protonation constants followed by much more reduced constant that as indicated by the UV-vis and NMR data, occur on the pyridine fragments. p[H]-metric, ESI/MS(+), EPR and UV-vis data show that L(1) is able to form mono-, di-, and trinuclear Cu(2+) complexes. Slippage movements and molecular reorganizations have been observed to occur as a function of p[H] in the 1:1 Cu(2+) complexes. The kinetic studies showed that the complex formation is fast and proceeds through a di…

Anisotropic Effect after Stretching of the Spin-Crossover Compound [Fe(II)(2,6-bis-(benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine)2] (C1O4)2 in Polyvinylalcohol Polyme…

1999

Abstract [Fe(II)(2,6-bis-(benzimidazol-2′-yl)-pyridine)2](C1O4)2 diffused into a poly(vinyl)alcohol polymer matrix, exhibits an thermally induced spin-crossover. After stretching the matrix, the compound orients itself in the matrix. Polarised UV/VIS spectra measured parallel and perpendicular to the stretching direction allowed to calculate the distortion of the molecule in the matrix by means of semi-empirical PPP SCF-CI calculations.

Experimental Investigations and ab Initio Studies on Hexacoordinated Complexes of Dichlorosilane

1998

Dichlorosilane, SiH2Cl2, forms two different kinds of coordination compounds with pyridine and 3-picoline:  the simple adduct trans-SiH2Cl2(L)2 and the ionic complex [SiH2(L)4]Cl2·4CHCl3 (L = pyridine, 3-picoline). The adducts trans-SiH2Cl2(py)2, 1, and trans-SiH2Cl2(3pic)2, 2, form directly from the reaction of bis(dichlorosilyl)methylamine, NMe(SiHCl2)2 with pyridine (py), and 3-picoline (3pic). Reaction of 1 with an excess of pyridine in chloroform yielded [SiH2(py)4]Cl2·4CHCl3, 3. The molecular and crystal structures of 1−3 were investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Si atoms of all three compounds are hexacoordinated and lie on centers of inversion. The basic structural …

Alkyl and Aryl Substituted Corroles. 2. Synthesis and Characterization of Linked “Face-to-Face” Biscorroles. X-ray Structure of (BCA)Co2(py)3, Where …

2001

The synthesis, spectroscopic properties, and electrochemistry of (BCA)Co(2) and (BCB)Co(2) are described where BCA and BCB represent biscorroles linked by an anthracenyl (A) or a biphenylenyl (B) bridge. The pyridine and CO binding properties of (BCA)Co(2) and (BCB)Co(2) are also presented, and one of the compounds in its pyridine-ligated form, (BCA)Co(2)(py)(3), is structurally characterized. The data on the biscorroles are compared on one hand to the monocorrole having the same substitution pattern and on the other hand to bisporphyrins having two Co(II) ions and the same anthracenyl or biphenylenyl linkers in order to better understand the interaction which occurs between the two corrole…

Alkyl and Aryl Substituted Corroles. 1. Synthesis and Characterization of Free Base and Cobalt Containing Derivatives. X-ray Structure of (Me4Ph5Cor)…

2001

The synthesis, spectroscopic properties, and electrochemistry of six different alkyl- and aryl-substituted Co(III) corroles are presented. The investigated compounds contain methyl, ethyl, phenyl, or substituted phenyl groups at the eight β-positions of the corrole macrocycle and four derivatives also contain a phenyl group at the 10-meso position of the macrocycle. Each cobalt corrole undergoes four reversible oxidations in CH2Cl2 containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate and exists as a dimer in its singly and doubly oxidized forms. The difference in potential between the first two oxidations is associated with the degree of interaction between the two corrole units of the dimer …

Recognition-Directed Supramolecular Assemblies of Metal Complexes of Terpyridine Derived Ligands with Self-Complementary Hydrogen Bonding Sites

2000

The synthesis and X-ray structures of three metal complexes with terpyridine-derived ligands that contain amino-pyrimidine and amino-pyrazine moieties are presented. They have been designed in view of directing their self-assembly into specific supramolecular arrays through molecular recognition interactions. The solid-state structures indeed reveal extensive hydrogen-bonded networks. The Co complex 4a with PF6- counterions builds a two-dimensional infinite interwoven grid through strong double hydrogen bonds (d(N-H-N) =2.918-3.018 A) between the amino groups and the N atoms of the rings, with all H-bonding sites saturated. Changing the anions to BF4- in 4b leads to a similar infinite but p…

2005

Abstract The reactions between the copper (II) salts [CuXL]PF6 (L: 2,6-[1-(2,6-diisopropylphenylimino)ethyl]pyridine) (X = Cl 1, X = Br 2) and LiTCNQ, in a DMF/water mixture, or Et3NH(TCNQ)2, in acetone, produced the new complexes [CuXL(TCNQ)] (X = Cl 3, X = Br 4). For both compounds, crystallographic studies have clearly evidenced the existence of dimeric complexes [{CuClL}(TCNQ)]2 owing to π–π overlap between two adjacent TCNQ − radical anions. Compound 1 reacted with Et4N(C10N7) to afford the mononuclear derivative [CuClL(C10N7)] (5), while its reaction with K2C10N6 produced the dinuclear complex [(CuClL)2(C10N6)] (6). The crystal structures of complexes 5 and 6 have been determined by X…

Insertion of One, Two, and Three Molecules of Alkyne into the Pd−C Bond of Ortho-palladated Primary and Secondary Arylalkylamines

2009

The ortho-metalated complex [Pd2{κ2(C,N)-C6H4CH2CH2NHMe-2}2(μ-Br)2] (1) can be prepared by refluxing a 1:1 mixture of Pd(OAc)2 and N-methylphenethylamine in acetonitrile, followed by addition of an excess of NaBr. Complex 1 reacts with PPh3 to give the mononuclear derivative [Pd{κ2(C,N)-C6H4CH2CH2NHMe-2}Br(PPh3)] (2). The cationic complex [Pd{κ2(C,N)-C6H4CH2CH2NHMe-2}(py)2]ClO4 (3) can be obtained by reacting 1 with AgClO4 and pyridine. The previously reported complex [Pd2{κ2(C,N)-C6H4CH2NHCH2Ph-2}2(μ-Br)2] (A) reacts with PhC≡CCO2R (R = Me, Et) to give the monoinserted derivatives [Pd2{κ2(C,N)-C(Ph)═C(CO2R)C6H4CH2NHCH2Ph-2}2(μ-Br)2] (R = Me (4a), Et (4b)). These dimers react with neutral l…
