ChemInform Abstract: Dynamic Magnetic MOFs
2013
In this review we combine the use of coordination chemistry with the concepts of molecular magnetism to design magnetic Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) in which the crystalline network undergoes a dynamic change upon application of an external stimulus. The various approaches so far developed to prepare these kinds of chemically or physically responsive MOFs with tunable magnetic properties are presented.
Dual application of (aqua)(chlorido)(porphyrinato)chromium(III) as hypersensitive amine-triggered ON switch and for dioxygen activation.
2014
Although synthesis and substitution reactions of chlorido chromium(III) porphyrins Cr(III)(TPP)(Cl)(L) (H2TPP = 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrin, L = pyridine, H2O, ROH, etc.), have been well-established in coordination chemistry for decades, an unexpected dichotomous reactivity of Cr(III)(TPP)(Cl)(H2O) (1) toward amines is disclosed here. This reactivity leads to the application of 1 as highly sensitive substoichiometric and irreversible ON switch for amine detection by an autocatalytic pathway. The concomitant activation of O2 by the 1/amine system is furthermore exploited in an electrochemically driven epoxidation of norbonene using O2 as initial oxidant.
Fragmentation reactions of realgar caused by early transition metal hydrides
2012
Abstract The reaction of realgar with [Cp′2MH3] in boiling toluene gave [Cp′2M2As2S6] (Cp′ = t-BuC5H4; M = Nb: 1; Ta: 2), while [Cp2WH2] (Cp = C5H5) reacted with As4S4 to give [Cp2W(H)(η1-As5S2)] (6). The structures were determined by X-ray crystallography. Compounds 1 and 2 are dimers in which two Cp′M units are symmetrically bridged by a μ,η2:2-AsS3 ligand, a sulfide ligand and a heteroallylic μ,η2:2-AsS2 ligand. The structure of 6 belongs to the type of bent metallocenes in which tungsten is surrounded tetrahedrally by two Cp ligands, a crystallographically found hydride atom and the new As5S2 cage. The reaction of 1 with W(CO)5THF gave [Cp′2Nb2As2S6·W(CO)5] (3) and [Cp′2Nb2As2S6W(CO)3·W…
Copper(II) complexes with sulfonamides derived from 2-picolylamine and their use as chemical nucleases
2006
Reaction between 2-picolylamine (2-aminomethylpyridine) with 2-mesitylenesulfonyl and 4- tert -butylbenzene sulfonyl chlorides leads to the formation of 2,4,6-trimethyl- N -[pyridin-2-ilmethyl]benzenesulfonamide (Hpmesa) and 4-ter-butyl- N -[pyridin-2-ilmethyl]benzenesulfonamide (Hptbsa). These compounds react with Cu(II) salts to yield coordination compounds with CuL 2 stoichiometry. The immediate environment of the metal ion is a highly distorted tetrahedron, the sulfonamide ligands acting in a bidentate fashion. Compound Hpmesa crystallizes in monoclinic space group P 2 1 /c (number 14), with Z = 4; complex [Cu(pmesa) 2 ] crystallizes in monoclinic space group P 1 ¯ (number 2), with Z …
Review: Solution equilibria of ternary complexes formed from copper(II), aliphatic amines, and bioligands
2014
This review provides a summary of the coordination chemistry of ligands in the ternary system: copper(II)–aliphatic amine–bioligand, where amine = ethylenediamine – En, diethylenetriamine – Dien, or N, N, N′, N″, N″-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine – Me5dien, and bioligand = selected amino acid, aminohydroxamic acid, or aminophosphonic acid, in aqueous solution. We would like to show the specific interactions of copper(II) in ternary systems in the context of complex equilibria chemistry.
Enantioselective self-assembly of antiferromagnetic hexacopper(ii) wheels with chiral amino acid oxamates
2013
The Cu(2+)-mediated self-assembly of oxamato-based ligands derived from either the (S)- or (R)-enantiomers of the amino acid valine leads to the formation of two antiferromagnetically coupled homochiral anionic hexacopper(II) wheels in the presence of templating tetramethylammonium countercations.
Preparation and Thermochromic Switching between Phosphorescence and Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence of Mononuclear Copper(I) Complexes
2020
Instructive, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly laboratory syntheses of two highly luminescent copper(I) complexes CuI(PPh3)2(pyR) (pyR = pyridine, 4-cyanopyridine) are described for second-year/upper-division undergraduate inorganic chemistry students. Both complexes exhibit bright thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) at ambient temperature and phosphorescence at low temperature. The laboratory experiments familiarize the students with mechanochemical syntheses, cluster and complex formation, ligand substituent effects, and the fascinating phenomenon of luminescence thermochromism.
Structural, spectral, and magnetic properties of end-to-end di-mu-thiocyanato-bridged polymeric complexes of Ni(II) and Co(II). X-ray crystal structu…
2002
Thiocyanatonickel(II) and thiocyanatocobalt(II) complexes of the composition Ni(NCS)(2)(HIm)(2) (1) and Co(NCS)(2)(HIm)(2) (2), where HIm = imidazole, were prepared and studied. In particular, the crystal structure of Ni(NCS)(2)(HIm)(2) was determined by X-ray methods. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/n, with a = 7.720(1) A, b = 5.557(1) A, c = 13.774(3) A, beta = 102.54(3) degrees, and Z = 2. Its structure consists of a one-dimensional polymeric chain in which nickel(II) ions are bridged by two thiocyanate groups bonding in an end-to-end fashion in a trans arrangement. The Ni...Ni distance is 5.557(1) A. The crystal packing is determined by the intermo…
Uranyl Complexes of Alkyl-Bridged Ditopic Diaminotetraphenol Ligands and Their Use as Uranyl Ion Extractors
2013
The coordination chemistry of uranyl ions was studied using long n-alkyl chain (n = 5-8) bridged by N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-hydroxy-3-methyl-5-tert-butylbenzyl)diaminoalkanes (H4L1-H4L4) as ligands. All ligands formed 2:1 (U-to-L ratio) complexes with uranyl ions, but in addition 1:1 complexes could be characterized using ligands H4L2 and H4L3. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopy (IR and NMR), and X-ray diffraction. The 2:1 complexes are of two types: [(UO2)2(H2Lm)(NO3)2(solvent)2] (m = 1 and 2; solvent = ethanol or propanol) or (cation)2[(UO2)2(H2Lm)(NO3)2(anion)2]·xsolvent (m = 2 and 4; cation = triethylammonium, anion = nitrate or thiocyanate, and solvent = …

2008
Abstract Five copper(II) complexes of formulas [Cu(bpcam)(CN)(H2O)] (1), [Cu(bpcam)(N3)(H2O)]2 (2), [Cu(bpcam)(NCS)(H2O)] (3), [Cu(bpcam)(dca)(H2O)]2 (4) and [Cu(bpca)(tcm)]n (5) [bpcam = bis(2-pyrimidylcarbonyl)amidate, bpca = bis(2-pyridylcarbonyl)amidate, dca = dicyanamide and tcm = tricyanomethanide] have been prepared and their structures determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 3 are mononuclear species where each copper atom is five coordinated with a tridentate bpcam and a terminally bound cyanide (1)/thiocyanate (3) ligands creating a basal plane with a water molecule in the axial position of a distorted square pyramid. Compound 2 is made of neutral di-μ-1,1-…
