Ag44(EBT)26(TPP)4 Nanoclusters with Tailored Molecular and Electronic Structure
2021
Although atomically precise metalloid nanoclusters (NCs) of identical size with distinctly different molecular structures are highly desirable to understand the structural effects on the intriguing optical and photophysical properties, their synthesis remains highly challenging. Herein, we employed phosphine and thiol capping ligands featuring appropriate steric effects and synthesized a charge‐neutral Ag NC with the formula, Ag 44 (EBT) 26 (TPP) 4 (EBT: 2‐ethylbenzenethiolate; TPP: triphenylphosphine). The single‐crystal X‐ray structure reveals that this NC has a hollow metal core of Ag 12 @Ag 20 and a metal‐ligand shell of Ag 12 (EBT) 26 (TPP) 4 . The presence of mixed ligands and long V‐…
Revised structure of trans-resveratrol: Implications for its proposed antioxidant mechanism
2015
The crystal structure of trans-resveratrol has been redetermined by X-ray diffraction. The newly refined structure demonstrates that the previously reported, dynamically disordered hydrogen-bonding network is rather the superposition of two crystallographically independent molecules of trans-resveratrol. This latter arrangement possesses a well-defined hydrogen-bonding network in a unit cell of double the previously reported volume. While not meant as a criticism of the proposed antioxidant mechanism itself, the present studies clearly show that the X-ray diffraction data should no longer be used for its additional support.
(E)-2-{[1-(3,11-Dimethyl-4-methylene-10-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5,10,11-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]pyrazolo[3,4-f][1,5]diazocin-5-yl)ethylidene]amino}-N-methyl-N-(…
2013
The central eight-membered ring of the title compound, C40H36N8O2, deviates from the ideal boat conformation because the bond between the exo-ethylene group and the adjacent N atom is twisted by 60.0 (4)° due to steric hindrance. Its adjacent benzene and pyrazole rings are oriented almost perpendicular to each other, making a dihedral angle of 85.8 (3)°. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by C(ar)—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network.
Single ion magnet behaviour in a two-dimensional network of dicyanamide-bridged cobalt(II) ions
2015
A novel two-dimensional coordination polymer of the formula [Co(dca)2(atz)2]n (1) resulted from assembling trans-bis(2-amino-1,3,5-triazine)cobalt(II) motifs by dicyanamide spacers. Variable-temperature dc and ac magnetic susceptibility measurements of 1 show that the high-spin cobalt(II) ions act as single ion magnets (SIMs).
[2,6-Bis(di-tert-butylphosphinomethyl)phenyl-κ3P,C1,P′](trifluoroacetato)palladium(II)
2010
The Pd(II) atom in the title compound, [Pd(C(2)F(3)O(2))(C(24)H(43)P(2))], adopts a distorted square-planar geometry with the P atoms in a trans arrangement, forming two five-membered chelate rings. Four intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur. The crystal packing reveals one weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond, which self-assembles the mol-ecules into infinite chains parallel to the b axis.
Molecular recognition of N-acetyltryptophan enantiomers by β-cyclodextrin
2017
The enantioselectivity of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) towards L- and D-N-acetyltryptophan (NAcTrp) has been studied in aqueous solution and the crystalline state. NMR studies in solution show that β-CD forms complexes of very similar but not identical geometry with both L- and D-NAcTrp and exhibits stronger binding with L-NAcTrp. In the crystalline state, only β-CD–L-NAcTrp crystallizes readily from aqueous solutions as a dimeric complex (two hosts enclosing two guest molecules). In contrast, crystals of the complex β-CD–D-NAcTrp were never obtained, although numerous conditions were tried. In aqueous solution, the orientation of the guest in both complexes is different than in the β-CD–L-NAcTrp …
Synthesis of new half sandwich tetrachloro derivatives of molybdenum(V) and tungsten(V). X-ray structures of (C5HPri4)W(CO)3(CH3) and (C5Et5)WCl4
2002
International audience; The new synthetic intermediates (Ring)MCl4 [Ring=C5HPri4 or 4Cp, M=Mo, 2; Ring=C5Et5 or VCp, M=W, 4, Ring=4Cp, M=W, 6] containing sterically protecting cyclopentadienyl ligands have been synthesized. Along the synthetic pathway to 2, it was found that the treatment of [4CpMo(CO)3]− with an aqueous ferric solution according to the well established Manning procedure affords the hydride compound 4CpMo(CO)3H (1) by hydrolysis rather than the expected neutral dimer by oxidation. Compound 1 could be converted, however, to 2 upon oxidation with PhICl2 in good yields. Compound 4 is shown by a single crystal X-ray analysis to adopt a monomeric four-legged piano stool structur…
Interaction of half-sandwich alkylmolybdenum(III) complexes with B(C6F5)3. The X-ray structure of [CpMo(η4-C4H6)(μ-Cl)(μ-CH2)(O)MoCp][CH3B(C6F5)3]
2001
Abstract The reactions of the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) complexes CpMo(η 4 -C 4 H 4 R 2 )(CH 3 ) 2 , where Cpη 5 -C 5 H 5 and RH or CH 3 , with equimolar amounts of B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 have been investigated in toluene. EPR monitoring shows the formation of an addition product which does not readily react with Lewis bases such as ethylene, pyridine, or PMe 3 . The analysis of the EPR properties and the X-ray structure of a decomposition product obtained from dichloromethane, [CpMo(η 4 -C 4 H 6 )(μ-Cl)(μ-CH 2 )(O)MoCp][CH 3 B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 ], indicate that the borane attack has occurred at the methyl position.
Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-{[5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]sulfanyl}ethanone
2017
The title heterocyclic compound is contains an oxadizole and two chloro-substituted phenyl rings. In the crystal, C—H⋯N hydrogen bonding links the molecules into undulating ribbons parallel to the b axis. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are the H⋯C (18%), H⋯H (17%), H⋯Cl (16.6%), H⋯O (10.4%), H⋯N (8.9%) and H⋯S (5.9%) interactions.
Binding Modes of Nonspherical Anions to N-Alkylammonium Resorcinarenes in the Solid State
2012
A series of hydrogen bond stabilized N-alkylammonium resorcinarene salts with nitrate, triflate, and picrate as the counteranions were synthesized and characterized with 1H NMR and electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry. Together with electrostatic interactions, the binding of the anions with several hydrogen bond donor sites proceeds through a complex array of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds, evidenced by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. These N-alkyl ammonium resorcinarenes bind the larger nonspherical anions into deformed cavitand-like structures and enforce a transformation of the resorcinarene conformation from almost symmetrical to extremely distorted.
