Oxidative coupling of 2-aminopyrimidine with LiOCl produces 5-chloro-2,20-azobis(pyrimidine) and 2,20-azobis(5chloropyrimidine) (abcp), both of which were structurally characterized. The symmetrical abcp was used as strongly p-accepting monoand bis-chelate ligand in complexes with [(bpy)2Ru] 2þ, [(H6C6)ClRu] þ, [(Ph3P)2Cu] þ and (OC)3ClRe. The p-acceptor capability of abcp results in low-energy...

trans-Bis(1,4-dimesityl-3-methyl-1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene)palladium(II) dichloride has been shown to be an excellent catalyst for the multiple Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions of polybromoarenes to the corresponding fully substituted polyarylarenes. The reactions proceeded in excellent yields and with high turnover numbers. With 1,4-dibromobenzene the catalyst was found to be active for up to 1...

Organometallic complexes of the general formula [(η(6)-arene)Ru(N⁁N)Cl](+) and [(η(5)-Cp*)Rh(N⁁N)Cl](+) where N⁁N is a 2,2'-dipyridylamine (DPA) derivative carrying a thiol-targeted maleimide group, 2,2'-bispyridyl (bpy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or ethylenediamine (en) and arene is benzene, 2-chloro-N-[2-(phenyl)ethyl]acetamide or p-cymene were identified as catalysts for the stereoselective...

From a consideration of odd-even intramolecular electron transfer processes in octahedrally co-ordinated transition metal complexes, two relationships have been derived. The first correlation describes 71 —> y3 optical electron transfer bands of the complexes K20sC l6 , K2IrCl6 , K2PtCl6 , K2PtCl4 as a function of the respective 35C1 nuclear quadrupole coupling constants. The second rela­ tions...

(S)-1-chloro-2-heptanol is an enantiopure chemical of great value that can synthesize Treprostinil for treating primary pulmonary hypertension. In this work, a new strain B-36, capable asymmetric reduction 1-chloro-2-heptanone to (S)-1-chloro-2-heptanol, was screened and identified as Curvularia hominis B-36 (CCTCC M 2017654) based on the morphological internally transcribed spacer (ITS) sequen...

N-substituted pyridine hydrazide (pyridine-2-carbonyl chloride and 4-chloro-benzoic acid hydrazide) undergoes hydrazide formation of the iminic carbon nitrogen double bond through its reaction with cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) metal salts in ethanol which are reported and characterized based on elemental analyses, IR, solid reflectance, magnetic moment, molar conductance, and thermal ...

The widespread use of platinum in high-tech and catalytic applications has led to the production of diverse Pt loaded wastewaters. Effective recovery strategies are needed for the treatment of low concentrated waste streams to prevent pollution and to stimulate recovery of this precious resource. The biological recovery of five common environmental Pt-complexes was studied under acidic conditio...

Multi-frequency continuous-wave and pulsed EPR techniques are employed to investigate the coordination of nitrogen-containing ligands to Ti(3+)-chloro complexes. Frozen solutions of TiCl3 and TiCl3(Py)3 dissolved in nitrogen-containing solvents have been investigated together with the TiCl3(Py)3 solid-state complex. For these different systems, the hyperfine and nuclear quadrupole data of Ti(3+...

Six novel one-dimensional chloro-bridged ReIVCuII complexes of formula {[Cu(L)4][ReCl6]}n, where L = imidazole (Imi, 1), 1-methylimidazole (Meim, 2), 1-vinylimidazole (Vim, 3), 1-butylimidazole (Buim, 4), 1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole (Vtri, 5) and N,N'-dimethylformamide (DMF, 6) are characterised structurally, magnetically and theoretically. The structures exhibit significant differences in Cu-Cl bon...
