Malonate-based copper(II) coordination compounds: Ferromagnetic coupling controlled by dicarboxylates
2003
Studies on structural and magnetic properties of polynuclear transition metal complexes, aimed at understanding the structural and chemical factors governing electronic exchange coupling mediated by multiatom bridging ligands, are of continuing interest to design new molecular materials exhibiting unusual magnetic, optical and electrical properties, bound to their molecular nature. Looking at potentially flexible bridging ligands, the malonate group seems a suitable candidate. The occurrence of two carboxylate groups in the 1,3 positions allows this ligand to adopt simultaneously chelating bidentate and different carboxylato bridging modes (syn–syn, anti–anti and syn–anti trough one or two …
Copper(II) complexes with 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine and oxalate and croconate: Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties
2012
Abstract Two new copper(II) complexes of formula [Cu2(2,5-dpp)(C2O4)2(H2O)4] (1) and [Cu2(2,5-dpp)(C5O5)2(H2O)4]·3H2O (2) [2,5-dpp = 2,5-bis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine, C2O42− = oxalate and C5O52− = croconate (dianion of 4,5-dihydroxycyclopent-4-ene-1,2,3-trione)] have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray crystallographic methods. Compounds 1 and 2 are dinuclear complexes where the 2,5-dpp molecule acts as a bis-bidentate bridge between the two copper(II) ions, the electroneutrality being achieved by the presence of bidentate oxalate (1) and croconate (2) ligands. Each copper(II) ion exhibits an elongated octahedral CuN2O4 environment with two nitrogen atoms from 2,5-dpp and two o…
Copper complexes modelling the interaction between benzolamide and Cu-substituted carbonic anhydrase. Crystal structure of Cu(bz)(NH3)4 complex
1998
New copper benzolamide (H 2 bz, 5-phenylsulfonamide-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide) complexes with ammonia, diethylentriamine (dien) and dipropylentriamine (dipn) have been prepared. The complex [Cu(bz)(NH 3 ) 4 ] crystallises in the monoclinic space group P 2 1 / n with a = 7.621(3), b = 19.91(5), c = 11.291(3) A, β = 93.17(4)° and Z = 4. The Cu(II) is five-coordinated with an almost regular square pyramidal geometry. The dideprotonated sulfonamide behaves as monodentate ligand interacting with the metal ion through the N atom of the unsubstituted sulfonamide group. In the EPR spectrum, exchange coupling between Cu(II) polyhedra of different orientations in the unit cell is observed. The …
Modifying the reactivity of copper (II) by its encapsulation into polydimethylsiloxane: A selective sensor for ephedrine-like compounds
2018
This paper demonstrates that the reactivity of copper (II) can be modified through its entrappment in a polymeric matrix of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), which makes possible the reaction into the support instead of in solution. Amino-containing compounds such as amino acids, proteins and sugars, which react with Cu (II) in solution, do not react inside the polymer. As a prove of concept, a highly specific Cu (II) PDMS-based sensor for ephedrines has been developed in this work. When the sensors are put into contact with solutions of these drugs under basic conditions, a change in their color from pale green to purple is observed. This change enables the visual identification of ephedrine (E…
Crystal structure and magnetic properties of the single-μ-chloro copper(II) chain [Cu(bipy)Cl2] (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine)
1999
Abstract The crystal and molecular structure of the copper(II) chain [Cu(bipy)Cl2] (1) (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The crystal structure of 1 consists of neutral single chloro-bridged copper(II) chains with alternating short and long Cu–Cl distances through a screw axis parallel to a. The copper surrounding is best described as distorted square pyramidal, the equatorial plane being built by the two nitrogen atoms of the chelating bipy and two chlorine atoms (one terminal and the other bridging), whereas the apical position is filled by the bridging chlorine atom from the symmetry-related adjacent unit. The equatorial Cu–Cl bonds (2.291(3) and 2…
Study of the interaction of [Cu(bipy)]2+ with oxalate and squarate in aqueous solution
1988
A study of the formation of complexes between [Cu(bipy)]2+ and ox2− and sq2− in aqueous solution, (bipy being 2,2′-bipyridine and ox2− and sq2− the dianions of ethanedioic acid and 3,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione, respectively), has been carried out with the aim of comparing the coordinating properties of these related ligands. The constants of the equilibria (i) and (ii) $$[Cu(bipy)]^{2 + } + ox^{2 - } \rightleftharpoons [Cu(bipy)ox]$$ (i) $$[Cu(bipy)]^{2 + } + sq^{2 - } \rightleftharpoons [Cu(bipy)sq]$$ (ii) have been determined by potentiometry and spectrophotometry at 25.0°C and 0.1 M NaNO3:logβ=5.78(2) and 2.16(2) for the oxalato- and squarato-complex, respectively. Such differen…
Spectroscopic behavior of metal–drug complexes. Infrared spectra of Cu(II) dimer complexes with acetazolamide (H2acm) and an analogue sulfonamide (B-…
1999
Abstract The infrared spectra of the drugs H2acm and B-H2ats, and their copper(II) dimer complexes with stoichiometries [Cu(acm)(NH3)2(OH2)]2·H2O and [Cu(B-ats)(NH3)2]2 are reported and discussed. The Raman spectra of H2acm and B-H2ats are also reported. An assignment of H2acm and B-H2ats modes in the complexes is proposed in comparison with the modes of the free ligands. The spectral modifications due to the deprotonation and coordination effects are analyzed. The ν(N–H) modes of the sulfonamido, carbonamido and Nring–H of the imine tautomer have been accurately assigned. Important information about the S–O and S–N vibrations has been obtained.
Apparent molar volumes of strontium nitrate and copper(II) chloride in ethanol + water at 298.15 K
1998
Densities of ethanol + water + strontium nitrate and ethanol + water + copper(II) chloride mixtures have been measured with an oscillating-tube densimeter over a large range of concentrations of the salt and ethanol, at 298.15 K. From these densities, apparent molar volumes of both electrolytes in ethanol + water mixtures have been calculated, and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been evaluated.
Reversible stimulus-responsive Cu(i) iodide pyridine coordination polymer
2015
We present a structurally flexible copper–iodide–pyridine-based coordination polymer showing drastic variations in its electrical conductivity driven by temperature and sorption of acetic acid molecules. The dramatic effect on the electrical conductivity enables the fabrication of a simple and robust device for gas detection. X-ray diffraction studies and DFT calculations allow the rationalisation of these observations.
Crystal structure of copper(II) cimetidine sulphate nonahydrate. Cation distortion and structure isomerism in three copper(II) cimetidine complexes
1988
Abstract In the crystalline state, the complex [Cu(CM) 2 ]SO 4 ·9H 2 O (CM = cimetidine) is constituted of two-dimensional cations[Cu(CM) 2 2+ ] n separated by SO 4 2− anions and water molecules. As in the related complexes [Cu(CM) 2 ](ClO 4 ) 2 and [Cu(CM) 2 ](NO 3 ) 2 , the copper atom lies in a strongly distorted octahedral CuN 4 S 2 environment. The distortion is quite different from one complex to another (cation distortion isomerism). In the title compound the CuS bond is unusually long (2.91 A). Unlike the title compound, the [Cu(CM) 2 2+ ] n cations in the perchlorate and nitrate salts are one-dimensional infinite chains characterized by different conformations of the cimetidine mo…
