A new tetranuclear copper(I) complex based on allyl(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)azanide ligand: Synthesis and structural characterization
2015
Abstract By means of alternating current electrochemical technique a new tetranuclear crystalline copper(I) complex [Cu I 4 ( L − ) 4 ] ( L − – allyl(5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)azanide ion) has been obtained and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction ( Sp. gr. I 4 1 / a ) and Raman spectroscopy. The metal center adopts linear arrangement, composed of one thiadiazole N atom from the one L − anion and one azanide N atom of the other L − ligand. A bridged Cu atoms stitch four L − ligands into the firstly observed tetranuclear copper(I) azanide complex with intramolecular Cu(I)⋯Cu(I) interactions at the distance of 2.7451(6) A. Molecular structure and Raman spectrum of the compo…
Mössbauer study of the solid state configuration of triorganotin derivatives with intramolecular coordination
1980
Triorganotin bromides with intramolecular nitrogen-to-tin coordination (I-VIII, Fig. 1) have been structurally investigated by Mossbauer and infrared spectroscopy. Mossbauer-Zeeman spectra have been measured for I and VIII in order to obtain the sign of the nuclear quadrupole splitting ΔE and the value of the asymmetry parameter η. Point-charge model values of ΔE and η have been calculated for environments of tin atoms in I-VIII which are plausible in view of the results of previous investigations. From trends of experimental ΔE in the series, and from the agreement between experimental and calculated Mossbauer parameters it is concluded that the compounds I-VIII all have trigonal bipyramid…
Iron(III) bis(pyrazol-1-yl)acetate based decanuclear metallacycles: synthesis, structure, magnetic properties and DFT calculations
2016
The synthesis, structural aspects, magnetic interpretation and theoretical rationalizations for a new member of the ferric wheel family, a decanuclear iron(III) complex with the formula [Fe10(bdtbpza)10(μ2-OCH3)20] (1), featuring the N,N,O tridentate bis(3,5-di-tert-butylpyrazol-1-yl)acetate ligand, are reported. The influence of the steric effect on both the core geometry and coordination mode is observed. Temperature dependent (2.0–300 K range) magnetic susceptibility studies carried out on complexes 1 established unequivocally antiferromagnetic (AF) interactions between high-spin iron(III) centers (S = 5/2), leading to a ground state S = 0. The mechanism of AF intramolecular coupling was…
Stability of Dinuclear Phosphane Palladium(III) Complexes: A DFT Approach
2018
Computational density functional theory studies have been carried out for the dinuclear ortho-metalated palladium(III) compounds [Pd2{μ-(C6H4)PPh2}2{μ-(X1-X2)}2Cl2]. These studies have shown that the electronic and steric properties of the auxiliary ligands (X1-X2 = bridging (carboxylato) or chelating (phenolato/acetylacetonato) O,O-donor ligands, bridging N,N-donor ligands (triazenido/formamidinato/pyrazolato), and bridging N,S-donor ligands) lead to systematic trends in their stability, highlighting that (a) the electronic nature of the donor atoms trans to the P has a clear trend, the replacement of hard donor atoms (O, N) by softer S donors generally reducing the stability of the compou…
Overcoming Steric Hindrance in Aryl‐Aryl Homocoupling via On‐Surface Copolymerization
2019
On-surface synthesis is a unique tool for growing low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials with precise structural control down to the atomic level. This novel approach relies on carefully designed precursor molecules, which are deposited on suitable substrates and activated to ultimately form the desired nanostructures. One of the most applied reactions to covalently interlink molecular precursors is dehalogenative aryl-aryl coupling. Despite the versatility of this approach, many unsuccessful attempts are also known, most of them associated to the poor capability of the activated precursors to couple to each other. Such failure is often related to the steric hindrance between reactants, which…
Photochemical Generation of Cyclophanes from 1,3,5-Trisubstituted Benzenes with Chalcone Chromophores
2007
(E,E,E)-1,3,5-Tricinnamoylbenzene (7a) photodimerizes in solution to the [4.4.4](1,3,5)cyclophane 8a. The process consists of three consecutive steps in which cisoid enone conformations of 7a react in regio- and stereoselective anti-head-to-head cycloadditions. (E,E,E)-1,3,5-Tris(3-oxo-3-phenylpropenyl)benzene (13a), an isomer of 7 with reversed enone units, shows a single [2π+2π] cycloaddition of the same type. Due to steric reasons, it is afterwards not capable of intramolecular processes and oligomerizes by intermolecular photocycloadditions. Photolyses in the crystalline state yield dimers by topochemically controlled syn-head-to-tail processes (7a → 10a, 13a → 15a). An efficient dimeri…
Dinitrogen complexation with main group radicals
2011
In this report we present data from hyperfine sublevel correlation spectroscopy (HYSCORE), an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopic technique, that reveals weak but distinct interactions between several main group element radicals and physically dissolved dinitrogen in solution. These interactions are the basis for a well-defined coordination of N2 to the paramagnetic centers. The complexes formed are primarily of the van der Waals-type but also feature a non-negligible orbital overlap between dinitrogen and the radicals' SOMO. Our spectroscopic findings are strongly supported by experiments with isotope-labeled 15N2, spectral simulations and quantum chemical and density funct…
Weak intermolecular interactions promote blue luminescence of protonated 2,2′-dipyridylamine salts
2014
In this work we demonstrate that protonation and π-stacking can be exploited to convert non-luminescent 2,2′-dipyridylamine into blue-emitting derivatives. We have synthesized a series of luminescent 2,2′-dipyridylamine (dpa) salts, i.e., (dpaH)X·nSolv (dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamine, X = HF2, n = 0.5, Solv = H2O 1; X = Cl, n = 2, Solv = H2O 2; X = Br, n = 2, Solv = H2O 3; X = I n = 1, Solv = H2O 4a; X = I n = 1, Solv = CHCl34b), (dpaH)2[SiF6]·H2O 5 and (dpaH)X (X = I36; SbF67; BF48) and characterized their emission properties, both in the solid-state and in solution. To rationalize our observations and relate the luminescence properties to the structure in the solid state and in solution, we ha…
Chemistry of density : extension and structural origin of Carnelley's rule in chloroethanes
2012
Low-density liquids and solids, with all intermolecular contacts longer than the sum of van der Waals radii, are formed by all ethanes chlorinated at one locant: CH2ClCH3, CHCl2CH3 and CCl3CH3. The concepts of molecular symmetry described by Carnelley and that of point groups have been compared. Carnelley's rule, when applied to liquid and solid chloroethanes clearly reveals the density dependence on the presence of intermolecular Cl⋯Cl and H⋯Cl short contacts, or their absence due to steric hindrances of overcrowded substituents. At 2.62 GPa, CH2ClCH3 freezes directly into phase II, with molecules arranged into layers with short Cl⋯Cl, H⋯Cl and H⋯H contacts. Only for CH2ClCH3, both the low…
Solid State Luminescence Enhancement in π-Conjugated Materials: Unraveling the Mechanism beyond the Framework of AIE/AIEE
2017
Solid state luminescence enhancement (SLE) of conjugated organic materials has had a great impact in materials science, but a deep understanding has been rather limited to date. Here, we investigate a prototype example of SLE materials, cyano-substituted distyrylbenzene (DCS), by varying systematically and subtly the substitution pattern (inter alia of the position of the cyano-substituent) to give largely different photoresponse in fluid and solid solution as well in the crystalline state. The combination of quantitative (ultra)fast optical spectroscopic techniques, appropriate quantum-chemical methods, and structural (X-ray) data allows us to elucidate and rationalize all details of the S…
