An investigation of photo- and pressure-induced effects in a pair of isostructural two-dimensional spin-crossover framework materials
2014
International audience; Two new isostructural iron(II) spin-crossover (SCO) framework (SCOF) materials of the type [Fe(dpms)2 (NCX)2 ] (dpms=4,4'-dipyridylmethyl sulfide; X=S (SCOF-6(S)), X=Se (SCOF-6(Se))) have been synthesized. The 2D framework materials consist of undulating and interpenetrated rhomboid (4,4) nets. SCOF-6(S) displays an incomplete SCO transition with only approximately 30 % conversion of high-spin (HS) to low-spin iron(II) sites over the temperature range 300-4 K (T1/2 =75 K). In contrast, the NCSe(-) analogue, SCOF-6(Se), displays a complete SCO transition (T1/2 =135 K). Photomagnetic characterizations reveal quantitative light- induced excited spin-state trapping (LIES…
NMR T1-Relaxation Measurements on Paramagnetic Organolanthanides: An Alternative Tool for Structure Determination in Solution
2005
1H NMR investigations were conducted on four paramagnetic organolanthanides, all bearing the tetraisopropylcyclopentadienyl ligand Cp4i (HC5iPr4) in order to verify whether or not interactions observed in the solid state are maintained in solution. In some cases variable-temperature experiments were necessary to enhance the resolution and determine the best conditions for the study. The 1D NMR spectrum could be interpreted in every case. Complementary 2D COSY experiments allowed the full attribution of the signals. T1 (1H) relaxation values were determined for all the paramagnetic complexes at the most suitable temperature, and compared with those of the diamagnetic KCp4i. The same tendency…
Structural, photophysical and magnetic properties of transition metal complexes based on the dipicolylamino-chloro-1,2,4,5-tetrazine ligand
2015
International audience; The ligand 3-chloro-6-dipicolylamino-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (Cl-TTZ-dipica) 1, prepared by the direct reaction between 3,6-dichloro-1,2,4,5-tetrazine and di(2-picolyl)-amine, afforded a series of four neutral transition metal complexes formulated as [Cl-TTZ-dipica-MCl2]2, with M = Zn(II), Cd(II), Mn(II) and Co(II), when reacted with the corresponding metal chlorides. The dinuclear structure of the isostructural complexes was disclosed by single crystal X-ray analysis, clearly indicating the formation of [MII–(μ-Cl)2MII] motifs and the involvement of the amino nitrogen atom in semi-coordination with the metal centers, thus leading to distorted octahedral coordination geome…
Unsymmetrically Substituted Bis(phosphino)Ferrocenes Triggering Through-Space 31(P, P′)-Nuclear Spin Couplings and Encapsulating Coinage Metal Cations
2021
International audience; We describe unsymmetrically substituted di-tert-butylated 1,1'-bis(phosphino)ferrocenes, with phosphino substituents R = [5-methyl]-2-furyl = Fu, and R' = phenyl (4a), i-propyl (4b). A modular synthetic approach was applied from the di-tert-butylated ferrocene platform (1), which lead to the formation of new diphosphines by using 1,1'bis(diiodo)-3,3'-bis(tert-butyl)ferrocene (2) as synthetic precursor. In contrast to the cousin non-alkylated unsymmetrically substituted diphosphino-ferrocenes which were reported up to now, these diphosphines showed strong (31 P, P')nonbonded (" ug-p e") nuclear spin-spin coupling. The strength of such internuclear spin-spin coupling c…
Exploring the Slow Relaxation of the Magnetization in CoIII -Decorated {DyIII 2 } Units
2016
We have prepared and structurally characterized a new member of the butterfly-like {CoIII 2DyIII 2} single-molecule magnets (SMMs) through further CoIIIdecoration, with the formula [CoIII 4DyIII 2(OH)2(teaH)2(tea)2(Piv)6] (teaH3=triethanolamine; Piv=trimethylacetate or pivalate). Direct current (DC) susceptibility and magnetization measurements were performed allowing the extraction of possible crystal-field parameters. A simple electrostatic modeling shows reasonable agreement with experimental data. Alternating current (AC) susceptibility measurements under a zero DC field and under small applied fields were performed at different frequencies (i.e., 10–1500 Hz) and at low temperatures (i.…
A rare polymeric azido-bridged copper(II) chain with a pentameric repeating unit: Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties
2013
International audience; The novel polymeric chain copper(II) complex [Cu4(μ-Mesalpn)2(μ1,1,1-N3)2(μ1,1-N3)2Cu]n (1) was prepared by the reaction of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O with Mesalpn in the presence of an excess of NaN3. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study showed an unusual 1D polymeric chain based on pentanuclear Cu5 units with both μ1,1,1-N3 and μ1,1-N3 bridges, and with three independent Cu(II) ions presenting three different coordination numbers (4, 5 and 6). The magnetic susceptibility data show the presence of dominant anti-ferromagnetic interactions.
Theoretical Investigation of the Low-Energy States of CpMoCl(PMe 3 ) 2 and Their Role in the Spin-Forbidden Addition of N 2 and CO
2003
International audience; A recent computational investigation of Jahn−Teller effects in unsaturated 16-electron d4d6 [CpMLn] complexes (Abu-Hasanayn, F.; Cheong, P.; Oliff, M. Angew. Chem.2002, 41, 2120) highlighted the typical presence of two spin-triplet and two singlet states of competing stability in these complexes and pointed out the necessity to account for more than one electronic state in studies thereof. Consequently, we have reinvestigated the addition of N2 to all the four low-energy states of CpMoCl(PH3)2, a reaction for which previously only one singlet and one triplet state have been considered (Keogh, D. W.; Poli, R. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1997, 119, 2516). The present study was pe…
Supramolecular open-framework architectures based on dicarboxylate H-bond acceptors and polytopic cations with three/four N–H+donor units
2015
International audience; Supramolecular assemblages based on anionic H-acceptors and cationic H-donors have been envisioned to elaborate open frameworks maintained by ionic H-bonds. Combinations of di-anionic chloranilate (CA2-), oxalate (Ox2-), or terephthalate (BDC2-) and trisimidazolium or tetrapyridinium derivatives (three and four N-H+ donors, respectively) yielded five architectures of formulae [(H3TrIB)(CA)1.5[middle dot]2DMF[middle dot]2.5H2O] (1), [(H4Tetrapy)(CA)2[middle dot]3DMF] (2), [(H3TrIB)(HOx)(Ox)[middle dot]5H2O] (3), [(H4Tetrapy)(Ox)2[middle dot]5H2O] (4), and [(H4Tetrapy)(BDC)2(H2O)[middle dot]1DMF[middle dot]3H2O] (5) (with TrIB = 1,3,5-trisimidazolylbenzene and Tetrapy …
Half-sandwich complexes of molybdenum-(III), -(IV) and -(V) with P–O and P–N bifunctional ligands Ph2PCH2X (X = 2-oxazolinyl, or C(O)NPh2)
2000
International audience; The reaction of the ligands Ph2PCH2X (X = 2-oxazolinyl, I; or C(O)NPh2, II) with the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) precursors [Mo(η-C5R5)(μ-Cl)2]2 (R = H or Me) has been investigated. Ligand I reacts with both complexes to form the corresponding adducts [Mo(η-C5R5)Cl2(Ph2PCH2C3H4NO)] (R = H, 1; or Me, 2). The reaction between I and [MoCp*Cl4] (Cp* = η-C5Me5) affords [MoCp*Cl4(Ph2PCH2C3H4NO-κ1P)] as a kinetic isomer, which then transforms quantitatively to [MoCp*Cl3(Ph2PCH2C3H4NO-κ2P,N)]+Cl−, 3. Ligand II reacts with [MoCp(μ-Cl)2]2 (Cp = η-C5H5) to afford the adduct [CpMoCl2{Ph2PCH2C(O)NPh2-κ2P,O}], 4, as an equilibrium mixture of two isomers. Longer reaction times in…
Aza and cyanobridged tripodal dinuclear copper(II) complexes: Electrochemical studies and structural evidence for an original azacyanocarbanion
2014
International audience; The reactivity of the mononuclear [Cu(TMPA)(L)] n+ complex (TMPA: tris(2-methylpyridine) amine, L: CH3CN, H2O) towards two different bridging species (tetracyanoethylene, 4,40-bipyridine) was investigated. The dinuclear complex [(mu-4,40-bipy)Cu-II(TMPA)(2)](CF3SO3)(4) (1) was synthesised and analysed by Xray diffraction (XRD). Magnetic studies revealed that this derivative displays very weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the two metal centres (2J = -0.69 cm(-1)). Solution studies (EPR spectroscopy and voltammetry) evidenced the lability of the bridged neutral bipyridine ligand in acetonitrile. The reaction of TCNE (TCNE: tetracyanoethylene) with the copper(…
