Synthesis, Crystal Structures, and Magnetic Properties of Two Novel Cyanido-Bridged Heterotrimetallic {CuIIMnIICrIII} Complexes
2017
The self-assembly process between the heteroleptic [CrIII(phen)(CN)4]− and [CrIII(ampy)(CN)4]− metalloligands and the heterobimetallic {CuII(valpn)MnII}2+ tecton afforded two heterotrimetallic complexes of formula [{CuII(valpn)MnII(μ-NC)2CrIII(phen)(CN)2}2{(μ-NC)CrIII(phen)(CN)3}2]·2CH3CN (1) and {[CuII(valpn)MnII(μ-NC)2CrIII(ampy)(CN)2]2·2CH3CN}n (2) [phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, ampy = 2-aminomethylpyridine, and H2valpn = 1,3-propanedyilbis(2-iminomethylene-6-methoxyphenol)]. The crystal structure of 1 consists of neutral CuII2MnII2CrIII4 octanuclear units, where two [Cr(phen)(CN)4]− anions act as bis-monodentate ligands through cyanide groups toward two manganese(II) ions from two [CuII(v…
A two-dimensional coordination polymer constructed from binuclear copper(II) metalloligands and manganese(II) ions: Synthesis, crystal structure and …
2016
Abstract The self-assembly process between the binuclear [Cu2(HL)(L)]− complex and the manganese(II) ion affords a two-dimensional coordination polymer of formula [Mn{Cu2(HL)(L)}2(H2O)2]n (1) (H3L = 3-hydroxyiminomethylsalicylic acid) where parallel ladder-like motifs of defective double cubanes of bis(phenoxo)dicopper(II) units as rods and anti-syn carboxylato bridges as rungs act as ligands towards tetraaqua-manganese(II) entities through the deprotonated oxime groups. The topology of 1 is compared with the one of another compound, [Mn{Cu2(HL)(L)}2(H2O)4]·4H2O·2DMF (1′) which was obtained in different conditions by Okawa et al. (J. Chem. Soc., Dalton Trans. (2001) 3119). Magnetic suscepti…
Conformational Control of Metallocene Backbone by Cyclopentadienyl Ring Substitution: a New Concept in Polyphosphane Ligands Evidenced by “Through-Sp…
2009
The present study deals with the conformational control of the metallocene backbone within ferrocenyl polyphosphane ligands and their performance in the highly topical palladium-catalyzed heteroaromatics arylation by direct C−H activation. New substituted cyclopentadienyl rings were synthesized, which allowed the assembling of original tri- and diphosphanes. The bulky cyclopentadienyl lithium salts diphenylphosphino-3-(triphenyl)methylcyclopentadienyllithium (4) and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)-4-(triphenyl)methylcyclopentadienyllithium (5) were prepared in excellent yield. The assembling of these new hindered cyclopentadienyl salts (Cp) with other Cp fragments was performed in order to prepa…
Controlling the Host-Guest Interaction Mode through a Redox Stimulus
2017
International audience; A proof-of-concept related to the redox-control of the binding/releasing process in a host-guest system is achieved by designing a neutral and robust Pt-based redox-active metallacage involving two extended-tetrathiafulvalene (exTTF) ligands. When neutral, the cage is able to bind a planar polyaromatic guest (coronene). Remarkably, the chemical or electrochemical oxidation of the host-guest complex leads to the reversible expulsion of the guest outside the cavity, which is assigned to a drastic change of the host-guest interaction mode, illustrating the key role of counteranions along the exchange process. The reversible process is supported by various experimental d…
Catalytic activity of biscobalt porphyrin-corrole dyads toward the reduction of dioxygen
2009
A series of biscobalt cofacial porphyrin-corrole dyads bearing mesityl substituents at the meso positions of the corrole ring were investigated as to their electrochemistry, spectroelectrochemistry, and CO binding properties in nonaqueous media and then applied to the surface of a graphite electrode and tested as electrocatalysts for the reduction of dioxygen to water or hydrogen peroxide in air-saturated aqueous solutions containing 1 M HClO(4). The catalytic reduction of O(2) with the same dyads was also investigated in the homogeneous phase using 1,1'-dimethylferrocene as a reductant in PhCN containing HClO(4). The examined compounds are represented as (PMes(2)CY)Co(2), where P = a porph…

A reinvestigation of compound CpMo(PMe3)2(CH3)2: Alkylation by single electron transfer and radical addition?
2001
International audience; The synthesis of the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) diphosphine dimethyl complex CpMo(PMe3)2(CH3)2 has been reinvestigated. The compound was obtained from the corresponding dichloro complex CpMo(PMe3)2Cl2 and methyllithium at low temperatures and isolated as a crystalline product by conducting all operations at temperatures lower than −10 °C. The complex is thermally unstable at room temperature but has been fully characterised by EPR spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and X-ray diffraction. The formation reaction is retarded by excess phosphine. On the basis of this and other related observations, a mechanism involving phosphine pre-dissociation followed by single elec…
Theoretical investigation of the spin crossover transition states of the addition of methane to a series of Group 6 metallocenes using minimum energy…
2016
International audience; Density functional calculations are reported on the addition of methane to Group 6 metallocenes, M(η-C5H5)2 (M), M(CH2(η-C5H4)2) (a-M) and M(η-C5Me5)2 (M*) where M = Mo and W. Full geometry optimisations were carried out on the singlet and triplet 16 electron complexes, 1[M] and 3[M], the η2-methane complexes, 1[M(η2-CH4)], and the hydridomethyl adducts, 1[M(CH3)(H)]. The triplet state for [M] was found to be more stable for all six metallocenes, the difference being least in the case of the ansa-bridged system. Formation of the hydridomethyl complexes was exoenergetic for all tungsten systems and for a-Mo, the other two Mo systems being endoenergetic. Minumum energy…
Reactivity of di-n-butyl-dicyclopentadienylzirconium towards amido stabilized stannylenes
2009
Abstract Reaction of Sn[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )] 2 and [{Sn(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )(μ-Cl) 2 ] with di- n -butyl-dicyclopentadienylzirconium yielded the trimetallic a carbene-like complex {[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )]( n -Bu)Sn} 2 Cp 2 Zr. The oxidation of {[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )]( n -Bu)Sn} 2 Cp 2 Zr by oxygen gives the five-membered dioxadistannazirconacyclic complex {[(N(C 6 H 3 i Pr 2 -2,6)(SiMe 3 )]( n -Bu)Sn} 2 O 2 Cp 2 Zr.
Supporting group decision makers to locate temporary relief distribution centres after sudden-onset disasters
2020
International audience; In the humanitarian response, multiple decision-makers (DMs) need to collaborate in various problems, such as locating temporary relief distribution centres (RDCs). Several studies have argued that maximising demand coverage, reducing logistics costs and minimising response time are among the critical objectives when locating RDCs after a sudden-onset disaster. However, these objectives are often conflicting and the trade-offs can considerably complicate the situation for finding a consensus.To address the challenge and support the DMs, we suggest investigating the stability of non-dominated alternatives derived from a multi-objective model based on Monte Carlo Simul…
