Experimental and computational studies of transition metal complexes with polydentate amino- and amidophenolate ligands : synthesis, structure, react…

2013

Chelating polydentate ligands play a key role in several areas of modern coordination chemistry. They can be exploited, for example, in catalysis, bioinorganic chemistry, heavy metal abstraction and molecular magnetism. Furthermore, compounds of this type can be found in natural chemicals, commercial products and industrial applications. In this dissertation, several 3d, 4d and 5d transition metal complexes with polydentate amino- and amidophenolate ligands were prepared and their structure, reactivity and magnetic properties were studied with experimental and computational techniques. In the first part of the dissertation, the solid-state structure, reactivity and magnetic properties of 12…

Halogen bonds in 2,5-dihalopyridine-copper(II) chloride complexes

2018

Ten coordination complexes obtained through a facile reaction between 2,5-dihalopyridines and copperIJII) chloride (CuCl2) are characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction. Two series of dihalopyridine complexes based on 2-chloro-5-X-pyridine and 2-bromo-5-X-pyridine (X = F, Cl, Br and I) were prepared to analyze the C–X2/X5⋯Cl–Cu halogen bonds (XB). The influence of X2- and X5-substituents on the respective interactions was examined by comparing them to the X2/X3⋯Cl–Cu XBs found in mono-substituted halopyridine complexes, (n-X-pyridine)2·CuCl2 (n = 2, 3 and X = Cl, Br and I). Varying the X5-halogens in (2,5-dihalopyridine)2·CuCl2, the C5–X5⋯Cl–Cu XBs follow the order F5 1 and they c…

Structural Dynamics of Interfirm Knowledge Networks

2016

In this chapter, we investigate the drivers of interfirm network structural dynamics and their influence on knowledge creation and diffusion processes that occur in such networks over time. Interfirm knowledge networks are complex webs of linkages connecting a variety of idiosyncratic firms within and across industries. Aimed to contribute to answer the recent calls for a more dynamic and multilevel view to understand network structures and processes, we leverage the complex network research to formulate a multilevel theoretical framework that clarifies the structural dynamics and knowledge creation and diffusion potential of interfirm networks.

Transition metal chlorides complexes with tetrahydrofuran [MtCl(4)(THF)(2)] used as precursors of ethylene polymerization

2002

Otrzymano trzy kompleksy chlorków metali przejściowych z THF - [TiCl4(THF)2] (I), [ZrCl4(THF)2] (II), oraz [HfCWTHF),] (III) i zastosowano je jako prekursory katalizatorów tytanowo-magnezowych w niskociśnieniowej polimeryzacji (0,5 MPa, 323 K) etylenu przy użyciu AlEt3 (najkorzystniej), AlEt2Cl lub Al(z'-Bu)3 jako kokatalizatora (rys. 1, tabela 1). Zmierzono gęstość, gęstość nasypową, stopień krystaliczno-ści, ciężary cząsteczkowe i ich rozkład oraz temperaturę topnienia uzyskanego PE-HD (tabela 1). Aktywność katalizatorów wzrastała w szeregu (III) < (II) < (I), tzn. ze wzrostem elektroujemności pierwiastka metalu i ze spadkiem wartości ładunku cząstkowego na atomie metalu grupy przejściowe…

Crystal Structures and Density Functional Theory Calculations of o-and p-Nitroaniline Derivatives: Combined Effect of Hydrogen Bonding and aromatic i…

2013

The interplay of strong and weak hydrogen bonds, dipole–dipole interactions, and aromatic interactions of o- and p-nitroaniline derivatives was studied by combining crystal structure analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Crystal structures of four 2-nitroaniline derivatives, 2-((2-nitrophenyl)amino)ethyl methanesulfonate (1A), 2-((2-nitrophenyl)amino)ethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (2A), N,N′-((1,3-phenylenebis(oxy))bis(ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(2-nitroaniline) (3A), and N-(2-chloroethyl)-2-nitroaniline (4A), and crystal structures of three 4-nitroaniline derivatives, 2-((4-nitrophenyl)amino)ethyl methanesulfonate (1B), 2-((4-nitrophenyl)amino)ethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (…

Direct detection of 17O NMR in [Gd(DOTA)]- by NMR Spectroscopy

2015

The 17O NMR spectrum of the non-coordinated carboxyl oxygen in the GdIII-DOTA (DOTA = tetraazacyclododecanetetraacetic acid) complex has been observed experimentally. Its line width is essentially unaffected by paramagnetic relaxation due to gadolinium, and is only affected by the quadrupole pathway. The results are supported by the relevant parameters (hyperfine and quadrupole coupling constants) calculated by relativistic DFT methods. This finding opens up new avenues for investigating the structure and reactivity of paramagnetic GdIII complexes used as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging.

VARIABILITY OF REMOTE SENSING SPECTRAL INDICES IN BOREAL LAKE BASINS

2018

Remotely sensed hyperspectral data has widely been used to determine water quality parameters in oceanic waters. However in freshwater basins the dependence between the hyperspectral data and the parameters is more complicated. In this work some ideas are presented concerning the study of this dependence. The data used in this study were collected from the lake Hiidenvesi in southern Finland. The hyperspectral data consists of reflectances in 36 bands in the wavelength area 508&hellip;878&thinsp;nm and the separately measured water quality parameters are turbidity, blue-green algae, chlorophyll, pH and dissolved oxygen. Hyperspectral data was used as bare band reflectances, but also in the …

Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in isostructural pincer complexes [OH-(t-BuPOCOPt-Bu)MCl] (M = Pd and Pt)

2019

In the crystal structure of the isostructural title compounds, namely {2,6-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)oxy]-4-hydroxyphenyl}chloridopalladium(II), [Pd(C22H39O3P2)Cl], 1, and {2,6-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)oxy]-4-hydroxyphenyl}chloridoplatinum(II), [Pt(C22H39O3P2)Cl], 2, the metal centres are coordinated in a distorted square-planar fashion by the POCOP pincer fragment and the chloride ligand. Both complexes form strong hydrogen-bonded chain structures through an interaction of the OH group in the 4-position of the aromatic POCOP backbone with the halide ligand. © 2019.

Sensitivity of transatlantic dust transport to chemical aging and related atmospheric processes

2017

We present a sensitivity study on transatlantic dust transport, a process which has many implications for the atmosphere, the ocean and the climate. We investigate the impact of key processes that control the dust outflow, i.e., the emission flux, convection schemes and the chemical aging of mineral dust, by using the EMAC model following Abdelkader et al. (2015). To characterize the dust outflow over the Atlantic Ocean, we distinguish two geographic zones: (i) dust interactions within the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), or the dust–ITCZ interaction zone (DIZ), and (ii) the adjacent dust transport over the Atlantic Ocean (DTA) zone. In the latter zone, the dust loading shows a steep …
