Effects of sequence, connectivity, and counter ions in new amide-linked Ru(tpy)2-Re(bpy) chromophores on redox chemistry and photophysics.
2013
New cationic metallo ligands L1-L3 based on bis(terpyridine) ruthenium(II) complexes decorated with differently substituted 2,2'-bipyridines attached via amide groups (5-NHCO-bpy, 4-CONH-bpy, 5-CONH-bpy) were prepared. Coordination of Re(I)Cl(CO)(3) fragments to the bpy unit gives the corresponding bimetallic Ru~Re complexes 1-3. Hydrogen bonds of the bridging amide groups to [PF(6)](-) counterions or to water molecules are observed both in the solid state and in solution. The impact of the amide orientation, the connecting site, and the coordination of counterions on redox and photophysical properties is explored. Both the metallo ligands L1-L3 and the bimetallic complexes 1-3 are emissive…
Cubane-Type Mo3FeS44+,5+ Complexes Containing Outer Diphosphane Ligands: Ligand Substitution Reactions, Spectroscopic Studies, and Electronic Structu…
2012
A general protocol to access Mo(3)FeS(4)(4+) clusters selectively modified at the Fe coordination site is presented starting from the all-chlorine Mo(3)(FeCl)S(4)(dmpe)(3)Cl(3) (1) [dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphane-ethane)] cluster and tetrabutylammonium salts (n-Bu(4)NX) (X = CN(-), N(3)(-), and PhS(-)). Clusters Mo(3)(FeX)S(4)(dmpe)(3)Cl(3) [X = CN(-) (2), N(3)(-) (3), and PhS(-) (4)] are prepared in high yield, and comparison of geometric and redox features upon modification of the coordination environment at the Fe site at parity of ligands at the Mo sites is also presented. The existence of the cubane-type Mo(3)FeS(4)(4+,5+) redox couple is demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry and for co…
Effect of temperature and ligand protonation on the electronic ground state in Cu( ii ) polymers having unusual secondary interactions: a magnetic an…
2018
International audience; Two new copper(II) polymeric complexes, {[Cu(HPymat)(H2O)](NO3)}n (1) and [Cu2(Pymat)2(H2O)3]n (2), have been synthesized using the Schiff base ligand H2Pymat [H2Pymat = (E)-2-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)-methyleneamino)terephthalic acid]. Complex 1 is a cationic 1D polymer, whereas complex 2 is a two dimensional polymer. Both complexes were crystallographically, spectroscopically and magnetically characterized. Theoretical studies were performed and the catecholase activity of the complexes was also examined. Complex 1 is a ferromagnetically coupled complex with J = 2.8 cm−1 and 2 shows antiferromagnetic coupling with J = −1.6 cm−1. Both complexes show notable features in the …
Unusual Formation of a Stable 2D Copper Porphyrin Network
2013
Copper(II) 5,15-bis(diethoxyphosphoryl)-10,20-diphenylporphyrin was obtained and characterized by means of cyclic voltammetry, electron paramagnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared, and UV-visible spectroscopy. Three crystalline forms were grown and studied by means of X-ray diffraction methods (single crystal and powder). The highly electron-withdrawing effect of phosphoryl groups attached directly to the porphyrin macrocycle results in a self-assembling process, with formation of a stable 2D coordination network, which is unusual for copper(II) porphyrins. The resulting 2D structure is a rare example of an assembly based on copper(II) porphyrins where the copper(II) central metal io…
Isolation, characterization, and computational studies of the novel [Mo3(mu3-Br)2(mu-Br)3Br6]2- cluster anion.
2010
The novel trimolybdenum cluster [Mo(3)(mu(3)-Br)(2)(mu-Br)(3)Br(6)](2-) (1, {Mo(3)}(9+), 9 d-electrons) has been isolated from the reaction of [Mo(CO)(6)] with 1,2-C(2)H(4)Br(2) in refluxing PhCl. The compound has been characterized in solution by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and in the solid state by X-ray analysis (counter-cations: (n-Bu)(4)N(+) (1), Et(4)N(+), Et(3)BzN(+)), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), magnetic susceptibility measurements, and infrared spectroscopy. The least disordered (n-Bu)(4)N(+) salt crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 20.077(2) A, b = 11.8638(11) A, c = 22.521(2) A, alpha = 9…
Oxidative DNA cleavage induced by an iron(III) flavonoid complex: synthesis, crystal structure and characterization of chlorobis(flavonolato)(methano…
2006
A flavonol iron(III) complex, [Fe(flavonolato)(2)Cl(MeOH)], has been prepared. The compound has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopy, magnetism and electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) at X- and Q-band. The geometrical environment around the metal is best described as rhombic distorted octahedral. This distortion has also been inferred from the magnetic measurements and from the EPR spectra at different temperatures, E/D(rhombicity parameter) approximately 0.06. The DNA cleavage activity of the iron(III) complex with and without ascorbate/hydrogen peroxide is reported. Mechanisms of the oxidative cleavage have been proposed when DNA strand scission is performed both …
Functional superoxide dismutase mimics. Structural characterization and magnetic exchange interactions of copper(II)-N-substituted sulfonamide dimer …
2004
Dinuclear copper(II) complexes with N-substituted sulfonamide ligands as superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimics have been investigated. The new N-(thiazol-2-yl)toluenesulfonamide (Htz-tol) and N-(thiazol-2-yl)naphthalenesulfonamide (Htz-naf) ligands have been prepared and structurally characterized. The complexes derived from these ligands, [Cu(2)(tz-tol)(4)] (1) and [Cu(2)(tz-naf)(4)] (2), have been synthesized, and their crystal structure, magnetic properties, and EPR spectra were studied in detail. In both compounds the metal centers are bridged by four nonlinear triatomic NCN groups. The coordination geometry of the coppers in the dinuclear entity of 1 and 2 is distorted square planar with t…
Bioinspired manganese(II) complexes with a clickable ligand for immobilisation on a solid support.
2014
International audience; Clickable ligands like N,N′-bis((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)prop-2-yn-1-amine (L1) and N-((1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methyl)-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)prop-2-yn-1-amine (L2) have been used to synthesise a series of manganese(II) complexes for grafting onto appropriate solid supports. These ligands mimic the 2-His-1-carboxylate facial chelation present in the active site of the manganese-dependent dioxygenase (MndD), while the alkyne side function allows grafting of the ligand onto an azido-functionalised support using “click chemistry” methodologies. Such synthetic analogues of the MndD crystallise in the solid state as double halide or pseudohalide-bridged dinuclear manganese(…
An "S"-shaped pentanuclear CuII cluster derived from the metal-assisted hydrolysis of pyCOpyCOpy: structural, magnetic and spectroscopic studies.
2007
Reaction of [Cu2(O2CMe)4(H2O)2] with 2,6-di-(2-pyridylcarbonyl)-pyridine (pyCOpyCOpy or dpcp) in MeCN–H2O 10 : 1, led to the pentanuclear copper(II) complex [Cu5(O2CMe)6{pyC(O)(OH)pyC(O)(OH)py}2] (1) which crystallizes in the triclinic P space group. The copper(II) atoms are arranged in an “S”-shaped configuration, and are bridged by the doubly deprotonated bis(gem-diol) form of the ligand, pyC(O)(OH)pyC(O)(OH)py2−. Magnetic susceptibility data indicate the interplay of both ferro- and antiferromagnetic intramolecular interactions stabilizing an S = 3/2 ground state. Fitting of the data according to a next-nearest-neighbour model {Ĥ = −[J1(Ŝ1Ŝ2 + Ŝ1′Ŝ2′) + J2(Ŝ2Ŝ3 + Ŝ3′Ŝ2′) + J3(Ŝ1Ŝ3 + Ŝ3′Ŝ…
The first unpaired electron placed inside a C3-symmetry P-chirogenic cluster
2010
The Pd(3)(dppm*)(3)(CO)(n+) enantiomers (n = 2 (2), 1 (3)) were prepared either from (R,R)- or (S,S)-P-chirogenic bis(phenyl-m-xylylphosphino)methane (dppm*; 1) and Pd(OAc)(2) in the presence of CF(3)CO(2)H, CO and water (n = 2), and then by reductive electrolysis (n = 1). The stable enantiomeric [Pd(3)((S,S)-dppm*)(3)(CO)](+)˙ (3), is the first C(3)-symmetry radical-cation M-M bonded cluster, therefore the odd electron is delocalized onto the Pd(3) frame within this symmetry. The novel chiral species have been characterized by circular dichroism (CD) of both enantiomers of the Pd(3)(dppm*)(3)(CO)(2+) clusters (2) and by EPR spectroscopy for the Pd(3)((S,S)-dppm*)(3)(CO)(+)˙ paramagnetic co…
