The synthesis and characterization of two dinuclear ruthenium polypyridyl complexes based on the bridging ligands 5,5'-bis(pyridin-2' '-yl)-3,3'-bis(1H-1,2,4-triazole) and 5,5'-bis(pyrazin-2' '-yl)-3,3'-bis(1H-1,2,4-triazole) and of their mononuclear precursors are reported. The dinuclear compounds have been prepared by a Ni(0) catalyzed coupling of a mononuclear ruthenium(II) polypyridyl compl...

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...

MagSaki software was developed for the magnetic analysis of dinuclear high-spin cobalt(II) complexes. This software performs magnetic analysis to determine magnetic parameters using several types of theoretical calculations, such as the following: (1) a mononuclear complex in an isotropic octahedral field, (2) a mononuclear complex in an axially distorted octahedral field, (3) a dinuclear compl...

The unsymmetrical dinucleating ligand 2-(N-isopropyl-N-((2-pyridyl)methyl)aminomethyl)-6-(N-(carboxylmethyl)-N-((2-pyridyl)methyl)aminomethyl)-4-methylphenol (IPCPMP or L) has been synthesized to model the active site environment of dinuclear metallohydrolases. It has been isolated as the hexafluorophosphate salt H(4)IPCPMP(PF(6))(2) x 2 H(2)O (H(4)L), which has been structurally characterized,...

The synthesis and characterisation of a series of dinuclear ruthenium and osmium polypyridyl metal complexes based on the bridging ligands [5-(5'-bipyridin-2',2''-yl)-3-(pyridin-2-yl)]-1,2,4-triazole (Hpytr-bipy), 2,2'-bis(pyridin-2''yl)-5,5'-bis(pyridin-3''-yl) (bipy-bipy) and 5,5'-bis(pyridin-2''-yl)-3,3'-bis(1,2,4-triazole) (Hpytr-Hpytr) are reported. The dinuclear complexes have been synthe...

The synthesis of a range of rhodium(iii) and iridium(iii) half sandwich complexes with aryl dithiolato ligands of varying geometry and flexibility are reported. These include dinuclear [Cp*M(S-R-S)]2 complexes 3b and 4b, M = Rh, Ir; S-R-S = naphthalene-1,8-dithiolate (b) and four dinuclear complexes bearing bridging dithiolate ligands [(Cp*M)2(μ2-Cl)(μ2-S-R-S)]Cl 3c, 4c, 5b, 6b, M = Rh, Ir; S-R...

The electron capture dissociation (ECD) of metallo-supramolecular dinuclear triple-stranded helicate Fe(2)L(3)(4+) ions was determined by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. Initial electron capture by the di-iron(II) triple helicate ions produces dinuclear double-stranded complexes analogous to those seen in solution with the monocationic metal centers Cu(I) or Ag(I). ...

Four linear dinuclear N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-palladium complexes {[PdCl(2)(NHC)](2)(μ-L)·xCH(2)Cl(2)} (1-4, L = pyrazine, DABCO) were synthesized through one-pot reactions of imidazolium salts, PdCl(2) and various bidentate N-heterocycles under mild conditions. The compounds were fully characterized by NMR, FT-IR and elemental analysis. Among them, complexes [PdCl(2)L(Mes)](2)(μ-pyrazine)...

A series of novel dissymmetric gemini cationics surfactants was synthesized by three-step reactions. The dissymmetric gemini surfactants contain a dodecanoic acid dimethylethylamine ester as the constant cationic part on one side of the hydroxypropyl center and a similar other cationic part, but with a different acid length (from octanoic to palmitic), on the other side. The critical micelle co...
