Syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic properties of tricyanomethanide-containing bis(2-pyrimidylcarbonyl)amidate copper(II) complexes
2008
Abstract Three new copper(II) complexes of formulae [Cu(bpcam)(tcm)(H2O)] · 2H2O (1), [Cu(bpcam)(tcm)(H2O)] (2) and [Cu(bpcam)(tcm)]n (3) [bpcam = bis(2-pyrimidylcarbonyl)amidate and tcm = tricyanomethanide] have been prepared and their structures determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1 and 2 are mononuclear species where each copper atom is five-coordinated in a somewhat distorted square pyramidal environment with a tridentate bpcam ligand and a terminally bound tcm group building the basal plane and a water molecule in the apical position. Compound 3 is a uniform copper(II) chain where the [Cu(bpcam)]+ units are connected through single μ-1,5-tcm bridges which link one…
Coordination compounds of methazolamide. Synthesis, spectroscopic studies and crystal structures of [M(Methazolamidato)2(py)2(OH2)2] (M CoII, NiII …
1992
Abstract The synthesis and X-ray crystallographic characterization of three monomeric transition-metal coordination compounds with the ligand methazolamide {[N(4-methyl-2- sulphamoyl-Δ21,3,4-thiodiazolin-5-ylidene)],acetamide} (abbreviated as Hmacm) are described, via [M(macm)2(py)2(OH2)2] [M Co(1), Ni(2) and Cu(3)]. In all the compounds the metal ion, lying on the centre of symmetry, is surrounded by two sulphonamidato nitrogen atoms and two pyridine nitrogen atoms in equatorial sites and two oxygen water molecules in axial positions. The coordination geometry of the metal is an almost regular octahedron around the cobalt(II) and nickel(II) ions. In contrast, the copper(II) ion has a sig…
Molecular Tuning of the Magnetic Response in Organic Semiconductors
2017
The tunability of high-mobility organic semi-conductors (OSCs) holds great promise for molecular spintronics. In this study, we show this extreme variability - and therefore potential tunability - of the molecular gyromagnetic coupling ("g-") tensor with respect to the geometric and electronic structure in a much studied class of OSCs. Composed of a structural theme of phenyl- and chalcogenophene (group XVI element containing, five-membered) rings and alkyl functional groups, this class forms the basis of several intensely studied high-mobility polymers and molecular OSCs. We show how in this class the g-tensor shifts, $\Delta g$, are determined by the effective molecular spin-orbit couplin…
Metamagnetic Behavior in [M (tvp) (NCS)2] Coordination Polymers (M = Fe(II) and Co(II); tvp = 1,2-di-(4-pyridyl)-ethylene)
1999
Abstract We report the synthesis and magnetic properties of two new coordination polymers of formula [M(tvp)(NCS)2] (M = Fe(II) and Co(II)). The magnetic data reveal the occurrence of metamagnetic behavior. Switching from bulk antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic behavior occurs for magnetic fields greater than 1300 G (Fe(II)) and 450 G (Co(II)) at temperatures lower than 4 K. Both compounds are isomorphous. A molecular structure is suggested in the light of the magnetic properties and precedent data on related systems.

This contribution describes the synthesis and structural characterization of a triaminoguanidinium (TAG)-based ligand [H6(OMe)3Limin]BF4 (1) containing imine bonds (Limin) and its reduction with a dimethylamino borane complex to the corresponding amine compound (Lamin)[H9(OMe)3Lamin]OTs (2). In solution, both ligands are C3-symmetric but crystal structures show the great influence of the reduction on the molecular structure. We show that the planar imine ligand is converted to a highly flexible compound which has nine potential coordination sites, three phenoxy and six amine donors, for binding metal ions. First solid state structures of 1:1 (metal:ligand) coordination compounds with SnIV a…
From Hydrophobic Matching to Interfacial Tuning: New Ideas for the Mutual Adaptation Between Membranes and Peptides
2009
It is widely accepted that membrane proteins and lipid bilayers are complementary in terms of the distribution in space of their hydrophobic and polar regions. Similarly, it is also accepted that the hydrophobic parts of the protein and the membrane must adapt to each other. Classically these ideas are rationalized under the concept of hydrophobic matching, which predicts a number of possible mechanisms by which proteins can vary their effective hydrophobic length, or membranes can change their hydrophobic thickness. Such effects have been studied in detail for simplified systems, like transmembrane peptides or protein fragments, which generally show that optimizing peptide orientation is t…
Bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazolyl)selenide--a new bidentate bent connector for preparation of 1D and 2D co-ordination polymers.
2007
The synthesis and description of eight polymeric complexes formed by transition metals with the bifurcated ligand bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazolyl)selenide are discussed together with X-ray crystal analysis as well as variable temperature magnetic susceptibility and characterization by Mossbauer spectroscopy. Preferable types of binding patterns of the ligand were determined, which include a variation of the bridging modes (cis- and trans-) and of the separation length, where the latter parameter together with bending of the ligand molecule were found to be dependent on the type of co-ordination geometry of the central atom and the nature of the anion. A strategy for increasing the structure d…
Mono-aryltin(IV) and mono-benzyltin(IV) complexes with pyridine-2-carboxylic acid and 8-hydroxyquinoline. X-ray structure of p-chloro-phenyl-tris(8-q…
1999
Abstract Complexes RSn(O2CPy)3·2H2O and RSn(Ox)3, (PyCOOH=pyridine-2-carboxylic acid, HOx=8-hydroxyquinoline, R=o- and p-Tolyl, o- and p-ClC6H4=o- and p-ClPh, o-ClC6H4CH2=o-ClBenzyl; besides, R=Ph in RSn(Ox)3) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and determination of molecular weights in CHCl3 solutions. The structure of p-ClPhSn(Ox)3·2CHCl3 has been determined by X-ray diffractometry. The 7-coordinated tin atom of the monomeric compound is in the center of a pentagonal bipyramid formed by (p-ClPh)C and O and N atoms of the chelating Ox− ligands. The latter type of structure would hold for all complexes according to 119Sn Mossbauer (including the determination of th…
CuIIand ZnIICoordination Chemistry of Pyrazole‐Containing Polyamine Receptors − Influence of the Hydrocarbon Side Chain Length on the Metal Coordinat…
2004
The synthesis of a new macrocyclic receptor (L 4 ) containing two 3,5-dimethylpyrazole units connected by dipropylenetriamine bridges is reported for the first time; pH-metric titrations indicate that L 4 shows six protonation steps in the pH range 2-11. In the absence of metal ions, the pyrazole moieties are not involved in acid-base processes in this pH range. Addition of Cu I I and Zn I I results in deprotonation of the pyrazole moieties which act as bis(monodentate) η 1 :η 1 ligands. This induced deprotonation occurs at higher pH values than in the complexes of the analogous ligand containing diethylenetriamine bridges (L 1 ). The crystal structures of [Cu 2 (H - 2 L 4 )](ClO 4 ) 2 and …
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 …
