The relative stereochemistry of tris-heteroleptic ruthenium complexes [Ru(pp)(pp')(pp'')](PF(6))(2), where pp = 1,10-phenanthroline-4-carboxamide, pp' = 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, and pp'' = 7,8-dimethyl dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine, was studied using NMR spectroscopy. The (1)H and (13)C spectra were assigned by using double-quantum-filtered correlation spectroscopy (DQF-COSY), heter...

Five heteroleptic palladium(II) complexes of the general formula Pd(PR3)(tu)Cl2, where PR3 = triphenylphosphine (1), diphenyl-o-tolylphosphine (2), diphenyl-p-tolylphosphine (3), diphenyl-t-butylphosphine (4), and diphenyl-o-methoxyphenylphosphine (5), and tu = 1,3-bis(2-methoxyphenyl) thiourea. They all have been synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques (elemental anal...

The solvatochromism of the n ↔ π* electronic transitions of acetone, which is determined in this work by means of absorption and emission spectroscopy, has been studied using the pure solvent scales for polarizability, dipolarity and acidity of the medium. From these analyses, the necessary reduction of the dipole moment and the increase of the polarizability for acetone on electronic excitatio...

New organoplatinum(II) complexes with the general formula of Pt(N,N-L)R(2), where L is a bis(7-azaindol-1-yl) chelate ligand, R is a methyl or a phenyl, have been synthesized and investigated with the aim to understand the impact of the linker group in the L ligand on the structure and the stability of the Pt(II) complexes. The L ligands used in our investigation belong to two classes: class I ...

Heteroleptic neutral copper(I) dipyrrin complexes have been synthesised with the general formula [Cu(4,4'-(R)-6,6'-(CH3)-bipyridine)(dipyrrin)], R = CH3 or CO2Et, and H-dipyrrin is either 1,3,7,9-tetramethyldipyrromethene (HL1), 1,13-diphenyl-6,8-diisoindolemethene (HL2), or 1,13-diphenyl-3,11-di(trifluoromethyl)-6,8-diisoindolemethene (HL3). Improved stability was observed across the series , ...

-Stoichiometric reactions of metal hydroxycarbonates with the acid trans-l,2cyclohexanediaminotetraacetic acid (H4CDTA) in water under reduced pressure yielded [Cu(H2CDTA)]'H20 (I) and [Ni(H2CDTA)(H20)]'4H20 (II). Both compounds were characterized by TG-DTA analysis, spectral properties (IR, reflectance and RSE) and Xray diffraction. In I the copper(II) atom exhibits a distorted square-base coo...

Heteroleptic copper(I) halide complexes containing the bis[2-(diphenylphosphano)phenyl]ether (DPEphos) ligand and the heterocyclic thioamides pyridine-2(1H)-thione (py2SH), pyrimidine-2(1H)-thione (pymtH) or 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2(1H)-thione (dmpymtH) have been synthesized and characterized by (1)H-NMR, IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses and melting point determinations. The complexes can be...

some new symmetrical tetraaza schiff base ligands containing 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde moiety formed from condensation reaction of 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde and o-phenylenediamine derivatives, such as n, nˊ-bis(2-quinolylmethylidene)-4-methoxy-1, 2-phenylenediimine (l1), n, nˊ-bis(2-quinolylmethylidene)-4-methy-1, 2-phenylenediimine (l2), n, nˊ-bis(2-quinolylmethylidene)-4-chloro-1, 2-phenylene...

We report in this communication the facile synthesis of the new tris(thiazolylmethyl)amine TTA ligand and the full characterization in solution and in the solid state of two ferrous complexes, [(TTA)FeCl2] and [(TTA)Fe(OTf)2]. TTA, the first example of a simple tris(thiazolemethyl)amine chelate--the second one only within this class of tripods--exerts a weak ligand field and the tertiary amine ...

The reaction of [(AuBr)2(μ-PR2P(CH2)nPR2)] (where R ) CH3 for n ) 1; R ) Ph for n ) 1, 3, 4) with N-alkylxanthine and thioxanthine derivatives, containing two ionizable protons in close positions, yields, under basic conditions, neutral heterobridged dinuclear gold(I) ring complexes [Au(μ-L)2(μ-PR2P(CH2)nPR2)], which have been investigated by means of 1Hand 31P-NMR and FAB spectroscopies.
