Hydrogen-Bonded Open-Framework with Pyridyl-Decorated Channels: Straightforward Preparation and Insight into Its Affinity for Acidic Molecules in Sol…
2017
International audience; An hydrogen-bonded open framework with pores decorated by pyridyl groups has been constructed following an off-charge-stoichiometry assemblage of protonated tetrakis(4-pyridyl-oxymethyl)methane and [Al(oxalate)3]3-, respectively the H-bond donor and acceptor of the ionic H-bond interactions. This supramolecular porous architecture (SPA-2) possesses 1 nm-large pores interconnected in 3D with high solvent accessible void (53%). It demonstrated remarkable affinity for acidic organic molecules in solution, which was investigated by the means of various carboxylic acids including larger drug molecules. Noteworthy, competing sorption between acetic acid and its halogenated…
Equipping metallo-supramolecular macrocycles with functional groups: Assemblies of pyridine-substituted urea ligands
2012
A series of di-(m-pyridyl)-urea ligands were prepared and characterized with respect to their conformations by NOESY experiments and crystallography. Methyl substitution in different positions of the pyridine rings provides control over the position of the pyridine N atoms relative to the urea carbonyl group. The ligands were used to self-assemble metallo-supramolecular M(2)L(2) and M(3)L(3) macrocycles which are generated in a finely balanced equilibrium in DMSO and DMF according to DOSY NMR experiments and ESI FTICR mass spectrometry. Again, crystallography was used to characterize the assemblies. Methyl substitution in positions next to the pyridine nitrogen prevents coordination, while …
A family of heterotetrameric clusters of chloride species and halomethanes held by two halogen and two hydrogen bonds
2016
Two previously reported 1,3,5,7,9-pentaazanona-1,3,6,8-tetraenate (PANT) chloride platinum(II) complexes [PtCl{HNC(R)NCN[C(Ph)C(Ph)]CNC(R)NH}] (R = tBu 1, Ph 2) form solvates with halomethanes 1·1¼CH2Cl2, 1·1⅖CH2Br2, and 2·CHCl3. All these species feature novel complex-solvent heterotetrameric clusters, where the structural units are linked simultaneously by two C–X⋯Cl–Pt (X = Cl, Br) halogen and two C–H⋯Cl–Pt hydrogen bonds. The geometric parameters of these weak interactions were determined using single-crystal XRD, and the natures of the XBs and HBs in the clusters were studied for the isolated model systems (1)2·(CH2Cl2)2, (1)2·(CH2Br2)2, and (2)2·(CHCl3)2 using DFT calculations and Bad…
Cooperative H-bonds, π⋯π and anion⋯π interactions as driving forces in the construction of novel Cu(II) bis(imidazol-2-yl) supramolecular 3D framewor…
2019
Abstract Two new Cu(II) complexes with bis(2-imidazolyl) based ligands, with the formula [Cu(BIM)2(SCN)2]·2H2O (BIM = bis(2-imidazol-2-yl)methane) and [Cu(HBIMAM)2(OH2)2](BF4)4·2H2O (BIMAM = bis(2-imidazol-2-yl)methylaminomethane) have been synthesized and characterized. Both compounds contain mononuclear entities as molecular building blocks (MBBs); neutral [Cu(BIM)2(SCN)2] in compound 1 and cationic [Cu(HBIMAM)2(OH2)2]4+ in compound 2. The coordination around the metal atoms shows a tetragonally-elongated octahedral geometry (CuN4S2 and CuN4O2 chromophores). The Q-band EPR spectra of both compounds are indicative of an essentially d x 2 - y 2 ground state for copper(II) ions. The analysis…
Synthesis, Structural and Spectroscopic Characterization of Cr III , Fe III , Co III , Ni II and Cu II Complexes with an Asymmetric 1,3,4‐Thiadiazole…
2016
The reaction of the new asymmetric 1,3,4-thiadiazole-based ligand 2-[(5-ethylthio-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)hydrazonomethyl]phenol (H1ETHP) with various third-row transition metal salts resulted in the formation of six new mononuclear complexes [Cr(ETHP)2]ClO4 (1), [Fe(ETHP)2][FeCl4] (2), [Co(ETHP)(ETHP–H)] (3), [Ni(ETHP)(H1ETHP)]Cl (4), [Ni(ETHP)(H1ETHP)](ClO4) (5), [Ni(ETHP)(H1ETHP)]Br (6), and one tetranuclear complex [Cu2Cl3(ETHP)(H1ETHP)]2 (7). H1ETHP and all complexes have been analyzed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analysis of 1–6 reveals complexes of the [ML2]n+-type (n = 0,1), in which the mono anionic ligand ETHP coordinates in a tridentate NNO fashion via its imine,…
Energetic study of bifurcated hydrogen bonds in secondary structures of salts composed with dicarboxylic acids and ethylamine
2020
Abstract The nature of bifurcated hydrogen bonds prompted us to analyze the energy of supramolecular motifs on the example of new structures of carboxylic acids salts with amines, which guarantee a multitude of such interactions. Experimental and theoretical studies of four dicarboxylic salts with primary amine: ethylammonium succinate hydrate (1), tartrate hydrate (2) phthalate hydrate (3) and terephthalate (4) has been investigated along with study of the strength of interactions between the anions and cations. The complete topological analysis of the charge density for all new structures allowed designation of the estimated Cumulative Dissociation Energy (eCDE).
Solution Conformation and Self‐Assembly of Ferrocenyl(thio)ureas
2016
Conformations and (dis)assembly processes of ureas and thioureas are of fundamental importance in supramolecular chemistry, anion binding, or crystal engineering, both in solution and in the solid state. For sensing and switching processes a redox-active unit, such as the ferrocene/ferrocenium couple, is especially suitable. Here, self-assembly processes of redox-active ferrocenyl(thio)ureas FcNHC(X)NHR [X = O, R = Fc (1), Ph (2), 1-naphthyl (3), Me (4), Et (5); X = S, R = Fc (6), 1-anthracenyl (7)] through hydrogen bonds – both in the solid state and in THF and CH2Cl2 solution – are reported. Special emphasis is placed on the impact of nonclassical intramolecular NH···Fe hydrogen bonds in …
Ion-Pair Complexation with Dibenzo[21]Crown-7 and Dibenzo[24]Crown-8 bis-Urea Receptors
2016
Synthesis and ion-pair complexation properties of novel ditopic bis-urea receptors based on dibenzo[21]crown-7 (R(1) ) and dibenzo[24]crown-8 (R(2) ) scaffolds have been studied in the solid state, solution, and gas phase. In a 4:1 CDCl3 /[D6 ]DMSO solution, both receptors clearly show positive heterotropic cooperativity toward halide anions when complexed with Rb(+) or Cs(+) , with the halide affinity increasing in order I(-) <Br(-) <Cl(-) . In solution, the rubidium complexes of both receptors have higher halide affinities compared to the caesium complexes. However, Rb(+) and Cs(+) complexes of R(2) show stronger affinities toward all the studied anions compared to the corresponding catio…
Protonation of a Spherical Macrotricyclic Tetramine: Water Inclusion, Allosteric Effect, and Cooperativity
2017
The spherical macrotricyclic cryptand tetramine "C24" (1) displays remarkable protonation behaviour. It undergoes protonation in four successive steps for which pKa values of 11.17±0.05, 10.28±0.04, 6.00±0.06 and 3.08±0.08 have been determined at 298 K. The unusually close values for the first two protonations provide evidence for the encapsulation of a water molecule serving as effector for the second protonation, which is consistent with earlier observations that the exchange of protons bound in the diprotonated species with solvent protons is unusually slow and that 17 O NMR spectra show the presence of an oxygen centre in the same species quite distinct from that of solvent water. Encap…
Macrocyclic complexes based on [N⋯I⋯N]+ halogen bonds
2021
New 1–2 nm macrocyclic iodine(I) complexes prepared VIA a simple ligand exchange reaction manifest rigid 0.5–1 nm cavities that bind the hexafluorophosphate anion in the gas phase. The size of the cavities and the electrostatic interactions with the iodine(I) cations influence the anion binding properties of these macrocyclic complexes.
