Co–Co and Co–Fe cyano-bridged pentanuclear clusters based on a methylpyrazinyl-diamine tetradentate ligand: spin crossover and metal substitution eff…
2017
A pentanuclear [CoII3CoIII2] cluster complex has been developed by a solvothermal synthesis. Its highly stable metal-mixed Fe–Co derivatives display robust spin crossover (T1/2 = 268 K) controlled by the degree of substitution.
Filling the Gap in the Metallacrown Family: The 9‐MC‐3 Chromium Metallacrown
2021
Abstract In this work, we report on a long‐sought missing complex in the metallacrown family. We synthesized and characterized the novel chromium metallacrown (MC) complex {CrIII(μ 2‐piv)3[9‐MCCr(III)N(shi)‐3](morph)3}⋅MeOH (in which shi3−=salicyl hydroxamate, piv=pivalate, and morph=morpholine). The MC with a 9‐MC‐3 cavity of kinetically inert chromium(III) ions was synthesized by a solvothermal reaction. Magnetization measurements reveal a high spin ground state.
Structural, magnetic and electrical properties of one-dimensional tetraamidatodiruthenium compounds
2013
The first bromo and iodo tetraamidatodiruthenium compounds of the type [Ru2X(μ-NHOCC6H4-R)4]n [X = Br, R = o-Me (1), m-Me (2), p-Me (3); X = I, R = o-Me (4), m-Me (5), p-Me (6)] have been prepared using solvothermal or microwave activation procedures. In these reactions ethanol or methanol as solvents have been used to make the synthesis procedures more environment-friendly. Solvothermal synthesis has allowed us to isolate single crystals of these extremely insoluble compounds and the crystal structures of all of them have been determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The change of the bridging halide ligand permits us to discuss the properties of these complexes on the basis of t…

Magnetic and optical properties in degenerated transition metal and Ga co-substituted ZnO nanocrystals
2019
Abstract In order to study the influence of itinerant electrons on magnetic properties of transition metal substituted ZnO nanocrystals, nanopowders containing different amounts of Ga and fixed amounts of Fe, Ni and Mn ions were synthesized. The ions of different transition metals and Ga were successfully introduced into the ZnO structure using solvothermal synthesis method. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Rietveld refinement were used to characterize the synthesized nanocrystals. Optical measurements revealed that Ga substitution can change the light transmittance/absorption in the infrared part of the electromagnetic light spectru…
Morphological and optical property study of Li doped ZnO produced by microwave-assisted solvothermal synthesis
2021
Abstract ZnO materials have been at the centre of many studies for decades. Doping of ZnO by lithium atoms is a prospective approach for compensation of n-type conductivity in the unintentionally doped ZnO aimed at obtaining p-type semiconductor. In this study, we have synthesized ZnO rod-like powders doped with lithium ions (0–0.65 atom%) by the new microwave-assisted solvothermal method in order to obtain greater photoluminescence intensity of ZnO emissions in the UV region. The obtained powders contain nanoparticles from 20 nm up to 250 nm depending on Li content. X-ray diffractometry and Raman spectroscopy were employed to characterise the structure of ZnO powders, scanning electron mic…
Heterometallic Titanium–Organic Frameworks by Metal-Induced Dynamic Topological Transformations
2020
Reticular chemistry has boosted the design of thousands of metal and covalent organic frameworks for unlimited chemical compositions, structures, and sizable porosities. The ability to generate porous materials at will on the basis of geometrical design concepts is responsible for the rapid growth of the field and the increasing number of applications derived. Despite their promising features, the synthesis of targeted homo- and heterometallic titanium–organic frameworks amenable to these principles is relentlessly limited by the high reactivity of this metal in solution that impedes the controlled assembly of titanium molecular clusters. We describe an unprecedented methodology for the syn…
Structural and magnetic characterization of the tridimensional network [Fe(HCO2)3]n·nHCO2H
2013
In this work we report the structural and magnetic characterization of a new three-dimensional porous metal–organic framework (MOF) based on iron(III) and the formate anion, [Fe(HCO2)3]n·nHCO2H (1), which was obtained by solvothermal synthesis. The tridimensional structure crystallizes in the trigonal space group Rc and is formed by highly regular octahedral Fe(OHCO)6 units. These units contain six equal Fe–O distances, with angles slightly different from 90° or 180°. The packing of 1 corresponds to a 3D covalent network defined by face sharing between the parallelepipeds, which are formed by the interactions of Fe(OHCO)6 units through formate ligands, thus generating a 41263 topology. This…
Spectral and structural studies on Ni(II) dithiocarbamates: Nickel sulfide nanoparticles from a dithiocarbamate precursor
2015
Abstract Three new planar Ni(II) dithiocarbamate complexes; [Ni(4-dpmpzdtc)2] (1), [Ni(4-dpmpzdtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (2) and [Ni(bupcbzdtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (3) (where, 4-dpmpzdtc = 4-(diphenylmethyl)piperazinecarbodithioato anion, bupcbzdtc = N-butyl-N-(4-chlorobenzyl))dithiocarbamato anion and PPh3 = triphenylphosphine) with “NiS4” and “NiS2PN” chromophore units were synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray structural analysis as well as UV–Vis, IR and NMR (1H, 13C and 31P) spectroscopy. For 2, 1H–1H COSY spectrum was also recorded. Single crystal X-ray structural analysis of 1–3, reveals a slightly distorted square planar geometry in all three complexes wherein the steric and electroni…
