چکیده

The crystal structure of the bicyclic hexaamine complex [Cu(fac-Me5-tricosane-N6)](ClO4)2.H2O (fac-Me5-tricosane-N6 = facial-1,5,9,13,20-pentamethyl-3,7,11,15,18,22-hexaazabicyclo[7.7.7]tricosane) at 100 K defines an apparently tetragonally compressed octahedral geometry, which is attributed to a combination of dynamic interconversion and static disorder between two tetragonally elongated structures sharing a common short axis. This structure is fluxional at 60 K and above as shown by EPR spectroscopy. Aqueous cyclic voltammetry reveals that a remarkably stable Cu(I) form of the complex is stabilised by the encapsulating nature of the expanded cage ligand.

An unusually flexible expanded hexaamine cage and its Cu(II) complexes: variable coordination modes and incomplete encapsulation.

The bicyclic hexaamine "cage" ligand Me(8)tricosaneN(6) (1,5,5,9,13,13,20,20-octamethyl-3,7,11,15,18,22-hexaazabicyclo[7.7.7]tricosane) is capable of encapsulating octahedral metal ions, yet its expanded cavity allows the complexed metal to adopt a variety of geometries comprising either hexadentate or pentadentate coordination of the ligand. When complexed to Cu(II) the lability of the metal r...

Synthesis of Binuclear Copper (II) Complexes with Expanded Porphyrins

The synthesis and characterization of some new binuclear copper (II) complexes, based on the use of large, pyrole-containing macrocycles, the so called "expanded porphyrins", [Cu2(macrocycle)]+4 is described. Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) studies indicate a weak "half-field line", which is characteristic of the Cu(II)-Cu(II) dimer, is observed at about 1600G. The obser...

Manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), and copper(II) complexes of an extended inherently chiral tris-bipyridyl cage.

Manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), and copper(II) derivatives of two inherently chiral, Tris(bipyridyl) cages (L and L') of type [ML]-(PF(6))(2)(solvent)(n) and [FeL'](ClO(4))(2) are reported, where L is the hexa-tertiary butyl-substituted derivative of L'. These products were obtained by using the free cage and metal template procedures; the latter involved the reductive amination of the res...

A new structural form for a decanuclear copper(II) assembly.

The synthesis and structure of a novel decanuclear copper(II) cage is reported. The assembly of the cage is facilitated by the cumulative coordinative interaction of tert-butyl phosphonate, 2-pyridylpyrazole and hydroxide ligands with copper(II) ions. Magnetic studies of this decanuclear copper(II) cage indicate complex antiferromagnetic behaviour.
