Abstract A detailed study of the ability pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (1) and its 4-mono- 3,4,5-tri-substituted analogues to sensitize emission from Pr3+, Nd3+, Gd3+, Dy3+ Er3+ is presented. Sensitization Ln3+ was demonstrated via ligands in all complexes, excluding with covering spectral range 500 nm 1850 nm obtained variation ion. From ligand-based photoluminescence Gd3+-complexes, relative...

Reactions of chloro bridged complexes with R-3-(3-pyridyl)alanine afford the chelate complexes LnM[NH2CH(CO2)CH2C5H4NH+]Cl− (LnM = Ph3P(Cl)Pd, (tol3P)(Cl)Pd, (Ph-pyridyl)2Ir, Cp∗(Cl)Rh, Cp∗(Cl)Ir, (p-Cymol)(Cl)Ru) with protonated pyridine substituents. An analogous Cp∗Rh complex with 3-(2-pyridyl)alaninate was also obtained. Addition of base (NaOMe) to these complexes gives dimeric and trimeric...

Vinylation of the chloro–ethyl and dichloro zirconium complexes [Zr(CpSi2Cp)ClX] (CpSi2Cp=1,1%,2,2%-(SiMe2)2(h-C5H3)2; X=Et, Cl) with one or two equivalents of Mg(CH CH2)Cl gave the new zirconacyclopentane [Zr(CpSi2Cp){hCH2 (CH2)2 CH2}] and (h-butadiene)zirconium [Zr(CpSi2Cp){h-(butadiene)}] complexes, respectively. Addition of a toluene solution of PhC CPh to the zirconacyclopentane compound a...

Metal complexes carrying a new class of singlet carbene ligands stabilized by lateral enamine moieties are accessible by oxidative insertion into readily available chloro vinamidinium salts.

Nonheme and heme iron monooxygenases participate in oxidative N-dealkylation reactions in nature, and high-valent oxoiron(IV) species have been invoked as active oxidants that effect the oxygenation of organic substrates. The present study describes the first example of the oxidative N-dealkylation of N,N-dialkylamines by synthetic nonheme oxoiron(IV) complexes and the reactivity comparisons of...

Water-soluble gold(I) complexes [1-mesityl-3-(3-sodiumsulfonatopropyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] gold(I) Chloro (3) and [1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropyl-4-sodiumsulfonatophenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] gold(I) Chloro (4) were prepared, in high yield, by carbene transmetallation from the appropriate NHC silver complex with chloro tetrahydrothiophene gold ([AuCl(tht)]). The antimicrobial properties of both gold(I) c...

Di-chloro-bis[chloro(triphenylphosphine)mercury(II)], [Hg2Cl4(C18H15P)2], (I), and di-bromo-bis[bromo(triphenylphosphine)mercury(II)], [Hg2Br4(C18H15P)2], (II), have been reinvestigated at 120 K. The molecules of (I) lie across inversion centres in space group P21/n, and in both (I) and (II) the complexes are linked into three-dimensional frameworks by a combination of CÐH X (X = Cl and Br) and...
