Synthesis and Structural Study of Tetravalent (Zr 4+ , Hf 4+ , Ce 4+ , Th 4+ , U 4+ ) Metal Complexes with Cyclic Hydroxamic Acids
2015
Six- and seven-membered cyclic hydroxamic acids, such as 1-hydroxypiperidine-2-one (1H, 1,2-PIPOH) and 1-hydroxyazepan-2-one (2H), have recently been identified in some mixed siderophores as one of their three chelating subunits. Compared to their ubiquitous noncyclic counterparts, cyclic hydroxamates are preorganized for metal binding. Surprisingly, the coordination chemistry of these bidentate, monoanionic ligands remains virtually unknown, even in the case of iron(III). We report herein the first structural study of the complexes of 1– and of 6–, an unsaturated seven-membered ring analog of 2–, with tetravalent cations of transition metals (zirconium and hafnium), lanthanide (cerium), an…
Synthesis, crystal structure and properties of two acetazolamide (5-acetamido-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide) complexes: bis(5-acetamidato- 1,3,4-th…
1992
Abstract The diverse coordination chemistry exhibited by acetazolamide (H2acm), a potent inhibitor of the carbonic anhydrase metalloenzyme, is highlighted in two new copper(II) complexes of this ligand: [Cu(Hacm)2(en)2] (I) and [Cu(Hacm)2(tn)2] (II). The synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopic properties of both compounds are reported in this paper. The structures of both compounds consist of discrete units of [Cu(Hacm)2(en)2] (I) and [Cu(Hacm)2(tn)2] (II), respectively, interacting through van der Waals contacts and hydrogen bonds only. Hacm, however, binds differently in each compound. In both cases, the Cu(II) ions, lying on the symmetry centers, show an elongated octahedral geome…
Spin state switching in iron coordination compounds
2013
The article deals with coordination compounds of iron(II) that may exhibit thermally induced spin transition, known as spin crossover, depending on the nature of the coordinating ligand sphere. Spin transition in such compounds also occurs under pressure and irradiation with light. The spin states involved have different magnetic and optical properties suitable for their detection and characterization. Spin crossover compounds, though known for more than eight decades, have become most attractive in recent years and are extensively studied by chemists and physicists. The switching properties make such materials potential candidates for practical applications in thermal and pressure sensors …
Discrete unusual mixed-bridged trinuclear CoIII2CoII and pentanuclear NiII coordination complexes supported by a phenolate-based ligand: theoretical …
2021
Two new complexes [CoIII2CoII(μ-OL)2(μ-OOCCH3)2(μ-N3)2(N3)2]·Et2O (1·Et2O) and [NiII5(μ-OL)4(μ-OOCCH3)2(OOCCH3)2(μ-N3)2]·CH3CN (2) (HOL = 2-((2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylamino)methyl)phenol) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and UV/Vis spectroscopy. Structural analysis revealed that 1 is a discrete trinuclear and 2 is a discrete pentanuclear coordination complex. In complex 1, terminal metal (CoIII) is in a distorted octahedral MN4O2 environment where coordination is satisfied by two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen atom of the ligand, and an oxygen atom from the acetate group and two nitrogen atoms from azide (one each from the bridging and terminal ones). The centra…
Reactions with a Metalloid Tin Cluster {Sn10[Si(SiMe3)3]4}(2-): Ligand Elimination versus Coordination Chemistry.
2015
Chemistry that uses metalloid tin clusters as a start- ing material is of fundamental interest towards understand- ing the reactivity of such compounds. Since we identified {Sn10(Si(SiMe3)3)4} 2� 7 as an ideal candidate for such reactions, we present a further step in the understanding of metalloid tin cluster chemistry. In contrast to germanium chemistry, ligand elimination seems to be a major reaction channel, which leads to the more open metalloid cluster {Sn10(Si(SiMe3)3)3} � 9, in which the Sn core is only shielded by three Si(SiMe3)3 ligands. Compound 9 is obtained through different routes and is crystallised together with two differ- ent countercations. Besides the structural charact…
Synthesis and X-Ray Single Crystal Structure of Two New Copper Complexes with the Redox Active Ligand 1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione
2005
The synthesis and the crystal structures of the complexes [Cu(LI)2](ClO4) (1) and [Cu(LI)(CH3CN)2(ClO4)2] (2) are reported. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with the unit cell dimensions a = 13.169(4), b = 12.289(3), c = 14.732(3) A, β = 109.03(2)° and Z = 4. Copper(I) is coordinated to four N atoms of the two 1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione (LI) ligands with a two-fold axis passing between the ligands. The copper(II) compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbn21 with unit cell dimensions of a = 7.498(5), b = 23.492(7), c = 12.363(4) A and Z = 4. Copper(II) coordination can be described as a distorted octahedron with the N donor atoms of one LI ligand and of t…
Chiral Molecular Magnets: Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Behavior of the Series [M(L-tart)] (M = MnII, FeII, CoII, NiII;L-tart = (2R,3R)-(+)-tart…
2006
A new series of layered magnets with the formula [M(L-tartrate)] (M = Mn(II), Co(II), Fe(II), Ni(II); L-tartrate = (2R,3R)-(+)-tartrate) has been prepared. All of these compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the chiral orthorhombic space group I222, as found by X-ray structure analysis. Their structure consists of a three-dimensional polymeric network in which each metal shows distorted octahedral coordination bound to four L-tartrate ligands, two of which chelate through an alcohol and a carboxylate group and the other two bind terminally through a monodentate carboxylate group. The chirality of the ligand imposes a Delta conformation on all metal centers. Magnetically, the paramag…
Synthesis and Reaction Chemistry of Sb(ECH2CH2NMe2)3(E= O, S)
2012
The antimony aminoalkoxide and aminothiolates Sb(ECH 2CH 2NMe 2) 3 [E = O (1), S (2)] were synthesized and their ability to form adducts with other metal moieties investigated. Compound 1 forms 1:1 adducts with NiI 2 (3) and M(acac) 2 [M = Cd (4), Ni (5)], while 2 undergoes ligand exchange with AlMe 3 to afford Me 2AlSCH 2CH 2NMe 2 (6). The structures of 2-4 and 6 were determined. Compound 2 incorporates three S, N-chelating ligands though the interaction with nitrogen is weaker than in analogous alkoxide complexes. Product 3 reveals one iodine has migrated from nickel to antimony, and all three alkoxide ligands bridge the two metals through μ 2-O atoms. In contrast, in 4, only one alkoxide…
Chemical Applications of Mössbauer Spectroscopy
2012
The Tutorial Lecture begins with a brief recapitulation of the hyperfine interactions and the relevant parameters observable in a Mossbauer spectrum. The main chapter with selected examples of chemical applications of Mossbauer spectroscopy follows and is subdivided into sections on: basic information on structure and bonding; switchable molecules (thermal spin transition in mono- and oligonuclear coordination compounds, light-induced spin transition, nuclear-decay-induced spin transition, spin transition in metallomesogens); mixed-valency in biferrocenes and other iron coordination compounds, and in an europium intermetallic compound; electron transfer in Prussian blue-analog complexes; mo…
Supramolecular coordination chemistry of aromatic polyoxalamide ligands: A metallosupramolecular approach toward functional magnetic materials
2010
Abstract The impressive potential of the metallosupramolecular approach in designing new functional magnetic materials constitutes a great scientific challenge for the chemical research community that requires an interdisciplinary collaboration. New fundamental concepts and future applications in nanoscience and nanotechnology will emerge from the study of magnetism as a supramolecular function in metallosupramolecular chemistry. Our recent work on the rich supramolecular coordination chemistry of a novel family of aromatic polyoxalamide (APOXA) ligands with first-row transition metal ions has allowed us to move one step further in the rational design of metallosupramolecular assemblies of …
