Mono- and di-nuclear complexes of the ligands 3,4-di(2-pyridyl)- 1,2,5-oxadiazole and 3,4-di(2-pyridyl)-1,2,5-thiadiazole; new bridges allowing unusually strong metal–metal interactions

چکیده
The syntheses of two new ligands, 3,4-di(2-pyridyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazole (dpo) and 3,4-di(2-pyridyl)-1,2,5-thiadiazole (dpt), are described. Complexes with palladium and copper have seven-membered chelate rings with coordination through the two pyridine nitrogens, whereas in the silver nitrate complex of dpt the ligand acts as a bridge between metal centres. Studies of the mononuclear ruthenium complexes indicate five-membered chelate rings (involving donor nitrogen atoms from each of a pyridine ring and the oxadiazole or thiadiazole ring) and reveal that these ligands are very electron deficient and possess very low energy π* orbitals. Dinuclear ruthenium complexes have been prepared and the diastereoisomers separated and crystallographically characterised. Electrochemical studies of these complexes reveal remarkably strong metal–metal interactions, which also depend on the stereoisomeric form. Some heterodinuclear complexes have also been prepared.

Influence of anions on intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) in mixed-valence dinuclear complexes.
Spectroelectrochemical studies of the intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) characteristics of both diastereoisomeric forms of the dinuclear complex [{Ru(bpy)2}2(mu-dpi-)]n+ [bpy=2,2'-bipyridine; dpi-=4,5-di(2-pyridyl)imidazolate] showed that the degree of inter-metal electronic coupling (or valence delocalization) is dependent on stereochemical identity. Increasing the relative concentration of ...

Advances in the molecular variety and the elucidation of the physical properties of 1,10-phenanthroline annulated with 1,2,5-thiadiazole and 1,2,5-thiadiazole 1,1-dioxide moieties have been achieved, and are described herein. A 1,2,5-thiadiazole compound, [1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-f][1,10]phenanthroline (tdap), was used as a ligand to create multidimensional network structures based on S•••S and S...

The dinuclear bis(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium complex of 4,5-di(2-pyridyl)imidazolate has been prepared and separated into its (meso and rac) diastereoisomers. The 2-phenyl substituted analogue forms the meso isomer selectively. All three complexes have been characterised by 1H NMR and X-ray crystallography. Electrochemical measurements and spectroelectrochemistry of the mixed-valence states reve...

The new flexible spacer ligand 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane-N,N'-dioxide forms three classes of isomorphous compounds with metal(iI) thiocyanates at controlled ligand-metal molar ratios, and its mu3-O,O,O' mode leads to a pair of coordination networks having the same (4, 4) topological characteristics but different mono- and di-nuclear nodes.
