The mononuclear nickel title complex (acetonitrile-κN){N-benzyl-N,N',N'-tris-[(6-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)meth-yl]ethane-1,2-di-amine}-nickel(II) bis-(tetra-fluor-ido-borate), [Ni(C30H35N5)(CH3CN)](BF4)2, was prepared from the reaction of Ni(BF4)2·6H2O with N-benzyl-N,N',N'-tris-[(6-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)meth-yl]ethane-1,2-di-amine (bztmpen) in aceto-nitrile at room temperature. With an open site occu...

The direct synthesis of nitrile from N2 under mild conditions is great importance and has attracted much interest. Herein, we report a conversion into via nitrile–alkyne cross-metathesis (NACM) process involving N2-derived Mo nitride. Treatment the nitride with alkyne in presence KOTf afforded an alkyne-coordinated nitride, which was then transformed MoV carbyne corresponding upon 1 e? oxidatio...

In the title compound, C21H22N2O, the planes of the two six-membered rings make a dihedral angle of 89.51 (7)°. The pyrrolidine ring has a puckering amplitude q 2 = 0.418 (3) and a pseudo-rotation phase angle ϕ2 = -166.8 (5), adopting a twist conformation (T). The other five-membered ring has a puckering amplitude q 2 = 0.247 (2) and a pseudo-rotation phase angle ϕ2 = -173.7 (5), adopting an en...

Copper(II) complexes of benzimidazole are known to exhibit biological activity that makes them of inter-est for chemotherapeutic and other pharmaceutical uses. The complex bis-(acetato-κO){5,6-dimethyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1-[(pyridin-2-yl)meth-yl]-1H-benzimidazole-κ2N2,N3}copper(II), has been prepared. The absorption spectrum has features attributed to intra-ligand and ligand-field transitions and...

A reaction between [(COD)IrCl]2 (COD is cyclo-octa-1,5-diene), HCl and indene failed to provide the hoped for chlorido-indenyliridium dimer, but instead produced the title compound, [IrCl3(CH3CN)(C8H12)], which is an octa-hedral complex of iridium(III) with a chelating cyclo-octa-1,5-diene ligand, three chloride ligands in a fac arrangement, and one aceto-nitrile ligand. Attempts to devise a ra...
