Density Functional Study of the Complexation Reaction of Sn(CH3)3X (X = F, Cl, Br and I) with Halide Anions

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 20 2003
Frank De Proft
Abstract The Lewis acid-base reaction between Sn(CH3)3X and Y, (with X, Y = F, Cl, Br and I) has been studied using quantum chemical calculations. Complexation energies were calculated at the Density Functional Theory (DFT) level and rationalized on the basis of a local application of the hard and soft acids and bases principle. It was observed that smaller differences in the local softness of the interacting sites in the Lewis acid and base correspond to stronger interactions. Moreover, the calculated sequences in complexation energies can be reproduced using equations containing chemical concepts introduced within the framework of conceptual density functional theory and rooted in the hard and soft acids and bases principle and referring only to the reactants. A method of treating the electronegativity and softness of the halide anions is presented based on a Taylor expansion of the electronegativity of the neutral halogens and the softness-polarizability proportionality. Experimental evidence for the calculated sequences was gathered from measured 117Sn chemical shifts and 1J (13C- 119/117Sn) coupling constant changes upon complexation. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Drei passend orientierte elektronenarme Iodarylgruppen bilden die Grundlage des ersten Anionenrezeptors (siehe Bild; weiß H, grau C, rot O, blau F, lila I, grün Cl), der ausschließlich Halogenbrücken verwendet, um eine hochaffine molekulare Erkennung in verdünnter Lösung zu erzielen. In seiner Anionenselektivität unterscheidet sich der Rezeptor von strukturverwandten Wasserstoffbrückenrezeptoren. [source]


Hydrogen bonding in the bromide salts of 4-aminobenzoic acid and 4-aminoacetophenone

ACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION C, Issue 4 2008
Dominik Cin
In the title compounds, 4-carboxyanilinium bromide, C7H8NO2+·Br,, (I), and 4-acetylanilinium bromide, C8H10NO+·Br,, (II), each asymmetric unit contains a discrete cation with a protonated amino group and a halide anion. Both crystal structures are characterized by two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded networks. The ions in (I) are connected via N,H...Br, N,H...O and O,H...Br hydrogen bonds, with three characteristic graph-set motifs, viz. C(8), C21(4) and R32(8). The centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded R22(8) dimer motif characteristic of carboxylic acids is absent. The ions in (II) are connected via N,H...Br and N,H...O hydrogen bonds, with two characteristic graph-set motifs, viz. C(8) and R42(8). The significance of this study lies in its illustration of the differences between the supramolecular aggregations in two similar compounds. The presence of the methyl group in (II) at the site corresponding to the hydroxyl group in (I) results in a significantly different hydrogen-bonding arrangement. [source]


Dipyrrolyl-Functionalized Bipyridine-Based Anion Receptors for Emission-Based Selective Detection of Dihydrogen Phosphate

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 5 2007
Patrick Plitt Dr.
Abstract New cationic anion receptors, based on the use of pyrrole-substituted bipyridine and coordinated to transition metals, are described. Specifically, polypyridine,ruthenium and ,rhodium cores have been functionalized to generate an anion binding site. The design was chosen to probe the influence of the pyrrole-to-pyrrole separation on anion-binding affinities and selectivities; this distance is greater in the new systems of this report (receptors 1 and 2) relative to that present in related dipyrrolyl quinoxaline based receptors 3 and 4. Solution-phase anion-binding studies, carried out by means of 1H,NMR spectroscopic titrations in [D6]DMSO and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) in DMSO, reveal that 1 and 2 bind most simple anions with substantially higher affinity than either 3 or 4. In the case of chloride anion, structural studies, carried out by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, are consistent with the solution-phase results and reveal that receptors 1 and 2 are both able to stabilize complexes with this halide anion in the solid state.

Dipole induced photodetachment dynamics of halide anions

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF QUANTUM CHEMISTRY, Issue 1 2008
Chandan Kumar MondalArticle first published online: 1 MAY 200
Abstract In this article the dynamics of photodetachment from closed shell anion in the presence of two color (bichromatic) laser field have been explored in the context of polar environmental situation. The electronic states of halide ions are modeled by a one dimensional Hamiltonian with a potential V(x) = ,V0e. The two parameters V0 and , are fixed by requiring V(x) to reproduce the experimentally observed ground state ionization energy of the halide ion concerned. The potential so generated are shown to support only one bound state. The time-dependent Fourier grid Hamiltonian method is used to follow the detachment dynamics with fairly high intensities of light. The environmental effects on the dynamics are sought to be modeled by two ways i) allowing the well depth (V0) to fluctuate randomly V0(t) = V0[1+,VR(t)]; R(t) randomly fluctuates between +1 and ,1 with time, when ,V (strength of fluctuation) is fixed and ii) in the presence of perturbation produced by a neighboring solvent dipole, which changes the effective potential. The detachment rate constant is studied as a function of important system parameters of the used light field. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2008 [source]


Novel approach to phasing proteins: derivatization by short cryo-soaking with halides

ACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION D, Issue 2 2000
Zbigniew Dauter
A quick (less than 1,min) soak of protein crystals in a cryo-solution containing bromide or iodide anions leads to incorporation of these anomalous scatterers into the ordered solvent region around the protein molecules. These halide anions provide a convenient way of phasing through their anomalous scattering signal: bromides using multiwavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD) and bromides and/or iodides using single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) or single isomorphous replacement with anomalous scattering (SIRAS) methods. This approach has been tested successfully on four different proteins and has been used to solve the structure of a new protein of molecular weight 30,kDa. [source]


Protonated Macrobicyclic Hosts Containing Pyridine Head Units for Anion Recognition

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 19 2008
David Esteban-Gómez Dr.
Abstract In this paper, we report two macrobicyclic receptors containing pyridine head units derived from 1,10-diaza-15-crown[5] (L1) or 4,13-diaza-18-crown[6] (L2) that can be protonated in MeCN and used for anion recognition. The interaction of these protonated lateral macrobicycles with different anions has been investigated by means of spectrophotometric titrations in MeCN. The association constants for the complexes of halide anions with the protonated macrobicycles follow the sequences Cl,>Br,>I,>F, (L1) and Cl,>F,>I,>Br, (L2), whereby an increase of more than two logarithmic units is observed from F, to Cl, for the binding constants of the receptor derived from L1. The association constants also indicate an important degree of selectivity of these macrobicyclic receptors for Cl, over Br, or I,. The X-ray crystal structure analyses of the chloride and bromide complexes confirms the formation of the envisaged supramolecular complexes. Moreover, the binding constants indicate that these receptors present a high sulfate-to-nitrate binding selectivity. The stability trend observed for the recognition of halide anions by the macrobicycles presented herein as well as the sulfate-to-nitrate binding selectivity have been rationalised by means of DFT calculations at the B3LYP/LanL2DZ level. These studies indicate that the especially high binding selectivity for Cl, is the result of the optimum fit between the protonated macrobicyclic cavity and the size of the anion, whereas the sulfate-to-nitrate selectivity results from shape complementarity between the hydrogen-binding acceptor sites on sulfate and the hydrogen-bond donors of the macrobicycle.
