In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title complex, [Cu(2)I(2)(C(22)H(16)N(2)O(4))(2)], the Cu(I) atom is coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry by an N,N'-bidentate dimethyl 2,2'-biquinoline-4,4'-dicarboxyl-ate ligand and two symmetry-related I atoms, which act as bridges to a symmetry-related Cu(I) atom. The distance between the Cu(I) atoms within the dinuclear unit is 2.6723 (11) Å.

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title Ag(I) compound, [Ag2(C6H6N2O)4](NO3)2, the aromatic amine-coordinated Ag(I) atom is further bridged by two hydroxyl-amine mol-ecules that use aromatic and oxime N atoms for bridging, and it exists in a distorted trigonal-planar geometry. In the crystal, the nitrate anions link to the dinuclear compound mol-ecules via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating a chai...

Controlled hydrolysis of donor-substituted titanium-salan complexes led to the formation of well-defined dinuclear complexes. Structure determination by means of X-ray and NMR-studies revealed the presence of a single μ-oxo bridge and one labile alkoxide ligand per titanium center. Concomitant cytotoxicity assays of the isolated dinuclear complexes showed cytotoxicities in the low micro-molar r...

The Py(2)N(4)S(2) octadentate coordinating ligand afforded dinuclear cobalt, copper and zinc complexes and the corresponding mixed metal compounds. The overall geometry and bonding modes have been deduced on the basis of elemental analysis data, MALDI-TOF-MS, IR, UV-vis and EPR spectroscopies, single-crystal X-Ray diffraction, conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements. In the copper...

Novel fluorine substituted mononuclear Ti(β-diketonato)2Cl2 complexes have been synthesised and shown to be involved in a partial hydrolysis reaction in solution, in which the hydrolyzed dinuclear {Ti(β-diketonato)2Cl}2(μ-O) is in equilibrium with the monomer. This is in contrast to the solution behaviour of the non CF3-containing Ti(CH3COCHCOCH3)2Cl2, Ti(PhCOCHCOCH3)2Cl2 and Ti(PhCOCHCOPh)2Cl2...

A novel dinuclear platinum complex of (dfppy-mhb-dfppy)Pt(2)(acac)(2) was synthesized and characterized, where dfppy-mhb-dfppy is a binary C^N cyclometalated ligand containing two bridged 2,4-difluorophenylpyridine (dfppy) units and acac is 2,4-pentanedione anion. Compared to previously reported dinuclear platinum complexes with a binary ancillary ligand, this dinuclear platinum complex showed ...

Using the enantiomeric bis-bidentate bridging ligands (+)/(-)-2,5-bis(4,5-pinene-2-pyridyl)pyrazine (L(S)/L(R)) and depending on the ratio control of reactants, two mono- and dinuclear Eu(III)-based enantiomeric pairs with the formulae Eu(dbm)(3)L(R/S)·2H(2)O (L(R) in R-1, L(S) in S-1 and dbm = dibenzoylmethanato) and Eu(2)(dbm)(6)L(R/S)·H(2)O (L(R) in R-2 and L(S) in S-2) have been stereoselec...

The new acyclic and potentially heptadentate dinucleating ligand, 2,6-bis(N,N-bis-(2-pyridylmethyl)-sulfonamido)-4-methylphenolato (bpsmp(-)) contains two tertiary sulfonamide groups. The sulfonamide donors permit a greater degree of control over the accessibility of mono versus dinuclear complexes compared to their closely related amine-containing counterparts, on account of their relatively w...

In this paper we report the stepwise preparation and the characterization of new unsymmetrical monoanionic Ru(III) dinuclear compounds, [NH(4)][{trans-RuCl(4)(Me(2)SO-S)}(mu-L){mer-RuCl(3)(Me(2)SO-S)(Me(2)SO-O)}] (L = pyz (1), pym (2)). By a similar synthetic approach we also prepared new mixed-valence Ru(III)/Ru(II) dinuclear compounds of formula [NH(4)][{trans-RuCl(4)(Me(2)SO-S)}(mu-pyz){cis,...

The decomposition of N2O on dinuclear oxygen-bridged iron sites in Fe-ZSM-5 was simulated under steady-state conditions considering the reaction mechanism and the rate parameters proposed by Hansen et al. [J. Phys. Chem. C 111 (2007) 2092] on the basis of DFT calculations. The presence of low concentrations of water vapor in the feed stream (ppb to ppm levels) affects the calculated values for ...
