Combining Cyanometalates and Coordination Clusters: An Alternative Synthetic Route toward Original Molecular Materials
2013
International audience; With the discovery of molecules or molecule-based compounds that can display blocked magnetization, magnetic ordering or switchable magnetic bistability, the research efforts devoted to molecular magnetic materials have considerably increased over the past two decades, fully exploiting the advantages of the bottom-up approach. 1-4 This research field focuses on promising properties for potential technological applications such as information storage, quantum computing and spintronics at the molecular scale, but it also provides fundamental insights into original quantum phenomena. 5,6 Coordination chemists have developed efficient synthetic tools for the preparation …
Halogen bonds in 2,5-dihalopyridine-copper(II) chloride complexes
2018
Ten coordination complexes obtained through a facile reaction between 2,5-dihalopyridines and copper(II) 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…
Versatile behavior of conjugated diynes with zirconocene reactive species
2008
Thermal decomposition of Cp2ZrPh2 in the presence of the buta-1,3-diynes RC≡CC≡CR (R = Ph, SiMe3) can lead to seven- or five-membered metallacycles. In both cases a stable benzo-fused seven-membered zirconacyclocumulene arising from a 2-fold insertion of the triple bonds of the dialkyne in the in situ generated zirconocene benzyne is formed. In the case of Me3SiC≡CC≡CSiMe3 a second minor complex is isolated: a 3-alkynyl-substituted zirconaindene arising from a β monoinsertion of one acetylenic function of the conjugated diyne in the zirconocene benzyne. No stable 2-alkynyl-substituted zirconacycle was isolated. This α monoinsertion complex is an intermediate in the exchange of the metalated…
Bis(2-methylbenzimidazole-κN1)copper(I) dichlorocuprate(I)
2004
By using alternating-current electrochemical synthesis, crystals of the copper(I) ionic compound composed of [Cu(C8H8N2)2]+ and [CuCl2]− ions have been obtained and structurally investigated. Both crystallographically independent Cu atoms lie on centres of inversion and exhibit the less-common coordination number 2. A linear arrangement of the metal atoms includes two N atoms of the different organic moieties in the [Cu(2-methylbenzimidazole)2]+ cation and two Cl atoms in the case of the inorganic anion.
Variable Cooperative Interactions in the Pressure and Thermally Induced Multistep Spin Transition in a Two-Dimensional Iron(II) Coordination Polymer
2020
Two types of experiments conducted to investigate the effect of pressure on the spin crossover (SCO) properties of the 2D Fe(II) coordination polymer formulated {Fe[bipy(ttr)2]}n are reported, namely, (1) magnetic measurements performed at variable temperature and at fixed pressure and (2) visible spectroscopy at variable pressure and fixed temperature. The magnetic experiments carried out under a hydrostatic pressure constraint of 0.04, 0.08, and 0.8 GPa reveal a two-step spin transition behavior. The characteristic critical temperatures of the spin transition are shifted upward in temperature as pressure increases. The slope of the straight-line of the Tc vs P plot, dTc/dP, is 775 K/GPa a…
Insight into the Mechanism of Water Adsorption/Desorption in Hydrophilic Viologen-Carboxylate Based PCP
2017
A water stable and highly hydrophilic porous coordination polymer based on viologen-carboxylate type ligand, the 4,4′-bipyridinium,1,1-bis(3-carboxyphenyl) (pc2), is obtained by the solvothermal method: [Cd3(pc2) (BTC)2(H2O)2]·6H2O ([1(H2O)2]·6H2O; BTC3– = 1,3,5-carboxybenzene). Its crystal structure and the ones of two partially dehydrated phases have been determined, allowing insight into the mechanism of water adsorption/desorption of this PCP material. It is shown that the dehydrated compound [1] first adsorbs two water molecules which fill the pores, leading to [1]·2H2O. On the other hand, the partial dehydration of the as-synthesized compound leads to the intermediate phase [1(H2O)]·3…

Abstract Reaction of the dimeric hydroxo di-n-butylstannane trifluoromethanesulfonato complex [n-Bu2Sn(μ-OH)(H2O)0.5(η1-O3SCF3)]2 (1) with phenazine (C12H8N2, Phz) (2) in dichloromethane at room temperature in a 1:3 molar ratio yielded the novel two-dimensional organometallic coordination polymer 2 ∞ { [ n - Bu 2 ( μ -OH ) SnOSn ( μ - η 2 - O 3 SCF 3 ) n - Bu 2 ] 2 [ n - Bu 2 ( μ -OH ) SnOSn ( η 1 - O 3 SCF 3 ) n - Bu 2 ] 2 } (3), together with the phenazinium trifluoromethanesulfonate salt [C12H9N2]+ [CF3SO3]−, crystallographically isolated in two different structural arrangements, free 4 and in π–π aromatic stacking interaction with independent intercalated non-protonated phenazine molecu…

A cyanide and hydroxo-bridged nanocage: a new generation of coordination clusters.
2013
International audience; Combining serendipitously-formed hydroxo-clusters, [CoII3(OH)(piv)4(L)]+ (where L = MeCN or Hpiv), with assembling cyanide building block, [FeIII(Tp)(CN)3]−, has led to an unprecedented architecture where polymetallic cobalt clusters and blocked tris-cyanide iron complexes define the apexes of a unique magnetic cubic nanocage.
Triorganotin( iv ) cation-promoted dimethyl carbonate synthesis from CO 2 and methanol: solution and solid-state characterization of an unexpected di…
2018
Two novel C,N-chelated organotin(IV) complexes bearing weakly coordinating carborane moieties were prepared by the reaction of the corresponding C,N-chelated organotin(IV) chloride (i.e. LCNR2SnCl, R = n-Bu (1) and Ph (2); LCN = 2-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)phenyl)) with monocarba-closo-dodecaborate silver salt (AgCB11H12; Ag·3). Both products of the metathesis, [LCN(n-Bu)2Sn]+[CB11H12]− (4) and [LCNPh2Sn]+ [CB11H12]− (5), respectively, were characterized by both multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The instability of 4 and 5 towards water is discussed. The solid-state structure of LCN(n-Bu)2SnOH·B(C6F5)3 (4a) as a model compound with a Sn–O(H)⋯B linkage is also reported. The…
