    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 16 2010
    Maximilian N. Kopylovich
    Abstract A series of cationic (2+) [Ni{HN=C(R)NHC(R)=NH}2](X)2 {R = 4-(Cl)C6H4 (1), 3-(NC)C6H4 (3), 4-(NC)C6H4 (4) and Me (7); X = Cl, (1, 3, 4) or MeCOO,·H2O (7)} and neutral [Ni{HN=C(R)NC(R)=NH}2](solvate) {R = 3-(Cl)-4-py (2), 3-py (5) and 4-py (6); solvate = MeOH and/or H2O; py = pyridyl} N,N -chelating bis(1,3,5-triazapentadiene/ato)nickel(II) [Ni(tap)2]2+/0 complexes has been easily generated by a ketoxime-mediated single-pot reaction of a nickel(II) salt [NiCl2·2H2O or Ni(MeCOO)2·4H2O] with 4-chlorobenzonitrile, isophthalonitrile, terephthalonitrile, acetonitrile, 2-chloro-4-cyanopyridine, 3-cyanopyridine or 4-cyanopyridine, respectively. The obtained compounds have been characterized by IR, 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopy, FAB-MS(+) or ESI-MS(+), elemental analyses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction [for 7 and solvated mono- {1a·(Me2CO)0.33·(MeOH)0.67} and bis-deprotonated (2b·2Me2CO, 4b·CHCl3, 5b·Me2CO and 6b·MeOH) products, formed upon recrystallization of 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6, respectively]. The crystal structures of all compounds bear similar monomeric Ni(tap)2 units with a nearly square-planar geometry. In addition, the structure of 7 features the formation of infinite 1D zig-zag water,acetate chains {[(H2O)2(MeCOO)2]2,}n, which multiply interact with the [Ni(tap)2]2+ cations to generate a 2D hydrogen-bonded supramolecular assembly.

    Design of Neutral Metallomesogens from 5,5-Dimethyldipyrromethane: Metal Ion Mediated Control of Folding and Hairpin Structures

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 32 2008
    Kelly A. Ames
    Abstract New ligands derived from 5,5-dimethyldipyrromethane and their corresponding neutral complexes with ZnII and PdII are described. The ligands incorporate either a hexacatenar [H2(1n), n = 1, 10, 12, 14 and 16], tetracatenar [H2(2n), n = 1 and 16] or an extended dicatenar structure [H2(3n), n = 1and 16]. Single-crystal X-ray structure determinations of [Zn2(11)2] and [Zn2(31)2] confirm a distorted tetrahedral geometry at ZnII to afford double-stranded helical structures, while the PdII species [Pd(31)] shows a distorted square-planar geometry with the ligand adopting an alternative hairpin conformation. The metal-free hexacatenar ligands H2(1n) (n = 10, 12, 14, 16) and the corresponding complexes [Zn2(116)2] and [Pd(1n)] (n = 12, 14, 16) are not mesomorphic. However, the tetracatenar complex [Zn2(216)2] generates a smectic mesophase, as confirmed by X-ray diffraction, while [Pd(216)] and the metal-free ligand H2(216) show no mesomorphic behaviour. Two of the extended dicatenar compounds, H2(316) and [Zn2(316)2] are non-mesomorphic, while [Pd(316)] displays a smectic A phase.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Anion-Directed Template Synthesis and Hydrolysis of Mono-Condensed Schiff Base of 1,3-Pentanediamine and o -Hydroxyacetophenone in NiII and CuII Complexes

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 21 2008
    Pampa Mukherjee
    Abstract Bis(o -hydroxyacetophenone)nickel(II) dihydrate, on reaction with 1,3-pentanediamine, yields a bis-chelate complex [NiL2]·2H2O (1) of mono-condensed tridentate Schiff baseligand HL {2-[1-(3-aminopentylimino)ethyl]phenol}. The Schiff base has been freed from the complex by precipitating the NiII as a dimethylglyoximato complex. HL reacts smoothly with Ni(SCN)2·4H2O furnishing the complex [NiL(NCS)] (2) and with CuCl2·2H2O in the presence of NaN3 or NH4SCN producing [CuL(N3)]2 (3) or [CuL(NCS)] (4). On the other hand, upon reaction with Cu(ClO4)2·6H2O and Cu(NO3)2·3H2O, the Schiff base undergoes hydrolysis to yield ternary complexes [Cu(hap)(pn)(H2O)]ClO4 (5) and [Cu(hap)(pn)(H2O)]NO3 (6), respectively (Hhap = o -hydroxyacetophenone and pn = 1,3-pentanediamine). The ligand HL undergoes hydrolysis also on reaction with Ni(ClO4)2·6H2O or Ni(NO3)2·6H2O to yield [Ni(hap)2] (7). The structures of the complexes 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 have been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. In complex 2, NiII possesses square-planar geometry, being coordinated by the tridentate mono-negative Schiff base, L and the isothiocyanate group. The coordination environment around CuII in complex 3 is very similar to that in complex 2 but here two units are joined together by end-on, axial-equatorial azide bridges to result in a dimer in which the geometry around CuII is square pyramidal. In both 5 and 6, the CuII atoms display the square-pyramidal environment; the equatorial sites being coordinated by the two amine groups of 1,3-pentanediamine and two oxygen atoms of o -hydroxyacetophenone. The axial site is coordinated by a water molecule. Complex 7 is a square-planar complex with the Ni atom bonded to four oxygen atoms from two hap moieties. The mononuclear units of 2 and dinuclear units of 3 are linked by strong hydrogen bonds to form a one-dimensional network. The mononuclear units of 5 and 6 are joined together to form a dimer by very strong hydrogen bonds through the coordinated water molecule. These dimers are further involved in hydrogen bonding with the respective counteranions to form 2-D net-like open frameworks. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Studies on Nickel(II) Complexes with Amide-Based Ligands: Syntheses, Structures, Electrochemistry and Oxidation Chemistry

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 12 2008
    Jyoti Singh
    Abstract The present work discusses the nickel chemistry in a set of amide-based open-chain ligands with subtle differences in the backbone or terminal amine substituents. The ligands coordinate to the Ni2+ ion through the Namide and Namine atoms maintaining a square-planar geometry. Absorption spectra and NMR studies reveal that the solid-state square-planar geometry is retained in solution. The electrochemical results suggest that the NiIII/NiII redox couple primarily depends on the N4 donors, which is composed of two Namide and twoNamine atoms and not on the peripheral substituents. All four ligands with variable backbone and substituents are equally competent in stabilizing the NiIII state. On the basis of electrochemical findings, chemical oxidations were carried out, and they reveal generation of the NiIII state in two cases, whereas decomposition was observed in others. Preliminary alkene epoxidation reactions suggest that the present nickel complexes transiently stabilize the higher oxidation state of the nickel ion that possibly participates in the oxidation of the substrates.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Synthesis, Structure and Magnetic Properties of a Tetranuclear Copper(II) Complex on the Basis of a 2-Substituted Glucopyranoside Schiff Base Ligand,

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 17 2006
    Anja Burkhardt
    Abstract Condensation of a derivatized 2-aminoglucose fragment with salicylaldehyde affords the new sugar-based Schiff base ligand benzyl 4,6- O -benzylidene-2-deoxy-2-salicylideneamino-,- D -glucopyranoside (H2L). The reaction of the dibasic ligand H2L with [Cu(CH3COO)2]·H2O leads to the formation of the tetranuclear copper(II) complex [{Cu(L)}4] (3) by a self-assembly process. The X-ray structural analysis of complex 3 which crystallizes together with two molecules of chloroform and one molecule of ethanol in the space group P212121 revealed for all copper atoms a NO3 coordination environment with a square-planar geometry. The tetranuclear molecule 3 consists of four chiral building blocks {Cu(L)} with the rare 2,3-coordination of the trans -configured donor atoms of the sugar backbone. The observed coordination mode of the building blocks exemplifies how chitosan-derived polysaccharide ligands can act as a chiral support for transition-metal complexes. The C-3 alcoholate oxygen atoms of the carbohydrate unit is bridging adjacent {Cu(L)} moieties resulting in an eight-membered Cu4O4 ring with a boat-like conformation. Temperature-dependent magnetic measurements of 3 indicate moderate antiferromagnetic interactions between the four copper(II) ions with a coupling constant of J = ,130 cm,1.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Water-Soluble Sal2en- and Reduced Sal2en-Type Ligands: Study of Their CuII and NiII Complexes in the Solid State and in Solution

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 14 2006
    Isabel Correia
    Abstract The CuII and NiII complexes of the Schiff base pyr2en [N,N, -ethylenebis(pyridoxyliminato)] and reduced Schiff bases Rpyr2en [N,N, -ethylenebis(pyridoxylaminato)] and R(SO3,sal)2en (SO3,sal = salicylaldehyde-5-sulfonate) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV/Vis, and EPR spectroscopy. The structure of Ni(pyr2en)·3H2O was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The pyr2en2, ligand is coordinated through two phenolate-O and imine-N atoms, in a distorted square-planar geometry. The complexation of CuII and NiII with Rpyr2en in aqueous solution is studied by pH-potentiometry, UV/Vis spectroscopy, as well as by EPR spectroscopy for the CuII system, and 1H NMR spectroscopy for the NiII system. Complex formation constants were determined and binding modes proposed. While for the CuII system all complexes present a 1:1 stoichiometry with different protonation states, for the NiII system the 2:1 (L/M) complexes become important in the basic pH range at a higher ligand excess.

    Synthesis and Binding Properties of Dendritic Oxybathophenanthroline Ligands towards Copper(II)

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 22 2005
    Holger Stephan
    Abstract Dendritic oxybathophenanthroline ligands (generation 0 to 3) have been synthesized by treatment of 4,7-bis(4,-hydroxyphenyl)-1,10-phenanthroline with the corresponding Fréchet-type dendrons carrying a benzylic bromide function at the focal point. The complexation of copper(II) has been studied by liquid,liquid extraction using the radioisotope 64Cu and time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS) in organic media indicating the formation of 1:3 complexes (Cu:dendritic ligand). Electronic and EPR spectroscopy were used to characterize the copper(II) chromophore, which is shown to have the expected distorted square-planar geometry with two phenanthroline donors coordinated to the copper(II) center. The third dendritic ligand therefore is proposed to be bound by secondary interactions. The stability constants of the 1:3 complexes were found to be in the order of log K , 16 in CHCl3. On the other hand, increasing generation of the dendritic Fréchet-type branches leads to enhanced shielding of the copper ion from the environment. Additional information about this behaviour was obtained by the fluorescence lifetimes, which are much less influenced upon addition of copper(II) salt to solutions of the higher generation ligands.

    Stable Nickel Catalysts for Fast Norbornene Polymerization: Tuning Reactivity

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 19 2005
    Juan A. Casares
    Abstract The air-stable complexes trans -[Ni(C6Cl2F3)2L2] (L = SbPh3, 1; AsPh3, 2; AsCyPh2, 3; AsMePh2, 4; PPh3, 5) have been synthesized by arylation of [NiBr2(dme)] (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) in the presence of the corresponding ligand L (for compounds 1,4) or by ligand substitution starting from 1 (for compound 5). The structures of 1, 2, and 5 have been determined by X-ray diffraction and show an almost perfect square-planar geometry in all cases. Their catalytic activity in insertion polymerization of norbornene have been tested showing a strong dependence of the yield and molecular mass of the polymer on the ligand used and the solvent. High yield and high molecular mass values are obtained using complexes with ligands easy to displace from NiII (SbPh3 is the best) and noncoordinating solvents. Complexes 1,3 are suggested as convenient bench-catalysts to have available in the lab. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005) [source]


    Tellurated Schiff Bases Formed from {2-[(4-Methoxyphenyl)telluro]ethyl}amine and Bis(2-aminoethyl) Telluride with o -Hydroxyacetophenone: Synthesis and Complexation Reactions with HgII, PdII and RuII , Crystal Structures of the Ligands, [Ru(p -cymene)Cl{H2NCH2CH2TeC6H4 -4-OCH3}]Cl·H2O and [RuCl{4-MeOC6H4TeCH2CH2NHCH(CH3)C6H4 -2-O,}]

    Raghavendra Kumar P.
    Abstract {2-[(4-Methoxyphenyl)telluro]ethyl}amine and bis(2-aminoethyl) telluride on treatment with o -hydroxyacetophenone gave the Schiff bases 4-MeOC6H4TeCH2CH2N=C(CH3)C6H4 -2-OH (L1) and 2-HOC6H4(CH3)C=NCH2CH2TeCH2CH2N=C(CH3)C6H4 -2-OH (L3), respectively. The reduction of L1 and L3 with NaBH4 resulted in 4-MeOC6H4TeCH2CH2NHCH(CH3)C6H4 -2-OH (L2) and 2-HOC6H4(CH3)CHNHCH2CH2TeCH2CH2NHCH(CH3)C6H4 -2-OH (L4), respectively, which have 1 or 2 chiral centers. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of L1 to L4 were found to be characteristic. Treatment of L1 with [Ru(p -cymene)Cl2]2 resulted in [Ru(p -cymene)(4-MeOC6H4TeCH2CH2NH2)Cl]Cl·H2O (1) whereas in the reaction of L2 with [Ru(p -cymene)Cl2]2, the p -cymene ligand is lost resulting in [RuCl(L2 -H)] (4). The reactions of L1, L3 and L4 with HgBr2 resulted in complexes of the type [HgBr2·(L)2] while Na2PdCl4 reacted with L1 to give [PdCl(L1 -H)]. The solid-state structures of L1, L3, 1 and 4 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The very swift formation of the tellurated amine from a tellurated Schiff base (L1) by hydrolysis has been observed for the first time and has resulted in 1. The Ru,N and Ru,Te bond lengths in 1 are 2.142(3) and 2.6371 (4) Å, respectively. The replacement of the p -cymene ligand with a hybrid organotellurium ligand (L2 -H), resulting in 4, is also a first example of its kind. The Ru center in 4 has a square-planar geometry, with the Ru,N, Ru,Te, Ru,O and Ru,Cl bond lengths being 2.041(6), 2.4983(8), 2.058(5) and 2.308(2) Å, respectively. In the crystals of 4 there are secondary intermolecular Te···Cl interactions and intermolecular N,H···O hydrogen bonds. This is the first example in which coordinated Te in a complex is engaged in two intermolecular secondary interactions. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004) [source]


    Structural Characterization and a New One-Pot Synthesis of trans -Chloro(phenyl)bis(triphenylphosphane)nickel(II)

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 9 2003
    Alexander Zeller
    Abstract trans -[NiCl(Ph)(PPh3)2], the organometallic precursor for a new class of neutral polymerization catalysts, has been synthesized via a new synthetic route. The previously used alkylaluminum compounds are replaced by zinc dust for the reduction of the nickel(II) salt in the presence of triphenylphosphane forming the intermediate Ni(PPh3)4. In a one-pot reaction, chlorobenzene then adds oxidatively to the intermediate to form the title compound, which was structurally characterized, in high yields. Its geometry is compared to known structures of the higher homologues of group 10. All complexes adopt a distorted square-planar geometry, but the parent structure shows significantly shorter metal-ligand bond lengths than its Pd and Pt congeners, as expected. Density functional theory calculations (B3LYP/6,31G*) on the full structure are in very good agreement with the solid-state structure. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    The title two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded coordination compounds, [Cu(C8H5O4)2(C4H6N2)2], (I), and [Cu(C8H7O2)2(C4H6N2)2]·H2O, (II), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The molecule of complex (I) lies across an inversion centre, and the Cu2+ ion is coordinated by two N atoms from two 4-methyl-1H -imidazole (4-MeIM) molecules and two O atoms from two 3-carboxybenzoate (HBDC,) anions in a square-planar geometry. Adjacent molecules are linked through intermolecular N,H...O and O,H...O hydrogen bonds into a two-dimensional sheet with (4,4) topology. In the asymmetric part of the unit cell of (II) there are two symmetry-independent molecules, in which each Cu2+ ion is also coordinated by two N atoms from two 4-MeIM molecules and two O atoms from two 3-methylbenzoate (3-MeBC,) anions in a square-planar coordination. Two neutral complex molecules are held together via N,H...O(carboxylate) hydrogen bonds to generate a dimeric pair, which is further linked via discrete water molecules into a two-dimensional network with the Schläfli symbol (43)2(46,66,83). In both compounds, as well as the strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds, ,,, interactions also stabilize the crystal stacking. [source]

    Ann M. Chippindale
    The title compound, [Cu(C4H8N3O2)2]·2C5H9NO, consists of a neutral copper complex, in which the CuII centre coordinates to two bis(methoxycarbimido)aminate ligands, solvated by two molecules of 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one. The complex is planar and centrosymmetric, with the CuII centre occupying a crystallographic inversion centre and adopting approximately square-planar geometry. N,H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions exist between the amine NH groups of the ligands and the O atoms of the 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one molecules. The associated units pack to form sheets. [source]


    A square-planar NiII complex with an asymmetric coordination of a novel polynucleative 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis{[2-(hydroxyimino)propanoyl]hydrazone} ligand

    ACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION C, Issue 3 2008
    Maxym V. Plutenko
    The title compound, (2,6-diacetylpyridine bis{[2-(hydroxyimino)propanoyl]hydrazone}(2,))nickel(II) dimethyl sulfoxide solvate monohydrate, [Ni(C15H17N7O4)]·C2H6OS·H2O, represents the first example of square-planar N4 coordination via N atoms with four different functions, namely amide, azomethine, hydroxyimino and pyridine. The coordination polyhedron of the central Ni atom has a slightly distorted square-planar geometry. The 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis{[2-(hydroxyimino)propanoyl]hydrazone} ligand forms one six- and two five-membered chelate rings, and a pseudo-chelate ring through an intramolecular hydrogen bond with an amide group as donor and a deprotonated hydroxyimino group as acceptor, resulting in a pseudomacrocyclic arrangement.

    Metal-based antitumor, cytotoxic and antimicrobial activity: pharmacological evaluation of Knoevenagel condensate ,-diketone Schiff base thiosemicarbazone Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes

    APPLIED ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 7 2009
    N. Raman
    Abstract Knoevenagel condensate Schiff base ligands [L = 3-cinnamalideneacetylacetone-thiosemicarbazone (CAT)/3-cinnama- lideneacetylacetoneethylthiosemicarbazone (CAET)/3-cinnamalideneacetylacetonephenylthiosemicarbazone (CAPT)] and their copper/zinc complexes were synthesized. They were characterized by analytical and spectral techniques. From these data it was found that the ligands adopt square-planar geometry on metalation with Cu2+ and Zn2+. To evaluate the antitumor and cytotoxic activity of the synthesized complexes in mice and human cancer cell lines, the antitumor activity of the complexes was evaluated against an Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) tumor model. The activity was assessed using survival time and short-term in vitro cytotoxic activity. Oral administration of complexes (100 mg/kg) increased the survival time. The cytotoxic activity of complexes was evaluated using human breast cancer (MDA-MB-231), colon cancer (HCT-116) and nonsmall lung cancer (NCI-H-23) cell lines. Both the complexes possessed significant antitumor and cytotoxic activity on EAC and human cancer cell lines. The in vitro antimicrobial screening effect of the investigated compounds was also tested against the various organisms by well diffusion method. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source]


    Intramolecular hydrogen-bond-directed coordination: trans -bis(N -benzoyl- N,-propyl­thio­urea-,S)di­iodo­platinum(II) and trans -bis(N -benzoyl- N,-propyl­thio­urea-,S)di­bromo­platinum(II)

    In the title compounds, trans -[PtI2(C11H14N2OS)2], (I), and trans -[PtBr2(C11H14N2OS)2], (II), respectively, intramolecular N,H,O (propyl­amine side) hydrogen bonds in the potentially bidentate thio­urea ligands lock the carbonyl O atoms into six-membered rings, determining the S -mono­dentate mode of coordination of these ligands. Intramolecular N,H,X (X is I or Br) interactions (benzoyl­amine side) lead to slight distortions of the PtII coordination spheres from ideal square-planar geometry. The PtII ion is located on an inversion centre in both structures. [source]

    In the title complex, [Cu2(C10H2O8)(C10H8N2)2]n, the CuII cation has a four-coordinated environment, completed by two carboxyl O atoms belonging to two 1,2,4,5-benzene­tetra­carboxyl­ate anions (TCB4,) and two N atoms from one 2,2,-bi­pyridine (2,2,-bipy) ligand, forming a distorted square-planar geometry. The [Cu(2,2,-bipy)]2+ moieties are bridged by TCB4, anions, which lie about inversion centres, forming an infinite one-dimensional coordination polymer with a double-chain structure along the a axis. A two-dimensional network structure is formed via a face-to-face ,,, interaction between the 2,2,-bipy rings belonging to two adjacent double chains, at a distance of approximately 3.56,Å. [source]

    Iridium Metal Thin Films and Patterned IrO2 Nanowires Deposited Using Iridium(I) Carbonyl Precursors

    CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION, Issue 7 2006
    Y.-L. Chen
    Abstract Highly volatile iridium(I) carbonyl complexes (1,5) with three anionic fluorinated chelates, namely ketoiminate, aminoalkoxide, or iminoalkoxide, have been synthesized and their physical properties relevant to CVD are evaluated. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) study on Ir(CO)2(amakNMe2) (3) confirms a square-planar geometry with two cis-orientated carbonyl ligands. Metallic iridium, polycrystalline IrO2 thin films, or even patterned IrO2 nanowires are deposited using Ir(CO)2(hfdaNnPr) (5) as the CVD precursor. A systematic investigation of the deposition of IrO2 nanowires is conducted, showing a close correlation of observed crystallite morphology with applied system pressure, underlying growth surface, and deposition temperature. Of particular importance, tilted and vertically aligned IrO2 nanowires are obtained on LiTaO3(012) and LiNbO3(100) surfaces under a pressure of 30,Torr of oxygen at 425,°C. The morphology and structural composition of the IrO2 are confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and XRD analyses. [source]


    The Assembly of Macrocyclic Bis- and Tetra-,-lactams with Embedded Platinum or Palladium Square-Planar Centers

    Abstract The synthesis, isolation, and full characterization of different types of stable, metal-assembled macrocyclic ,-lactams are reported. By using adequately functionalized bis-,-lactams with defined stereochemistry as building blocks, a series of mono- and bimetallic Pd and Pt macrocycles has been prepared in good to quantitative yields. These novel structures combine the ,-lactam moiety with transition-metal fragments with cis -square-planar geometry and constitute a new class of metal-assembled cavities involving molecules with biological relevance as building blocks. By combining the adequate ligands, metallic fragments, and tuning the reaction conditions, different mono- and bimetallic macrocyclic ,-lactam cavities can be selectively obtained. Macrocycles with Pt,ethynyl groups are suitable to form host,silver triflate guest complexes in a tweezer fashion. El trabajo describe la síntesis, aislamiento y caracterización completa de una serie de Pd y Pt-metalo-,-lactamas. Estos compuestos se obtienen con excelente rendimiento a partir de bis-,-lactamas adecuadamente funcionalizadas y con estereoquímica definida, y los correspondientes complejos de Pd y Pt. Las bis y tetra-metalo-,-lactamas obtenidas constituyen un nuevo tipo de cavidades macrocíclicas, que combinan en su estructura los fragmentos ,-lactámicos con complejos metálicos de geometría cis-plano cuadrada. Combinando adecuadamente los ligandos precursores (bis-,-lactama y complejo metálico) y las condiciones de reacción, es posible controlar de forma totalmente selectiva, el tamaño del macrociclo obtenido y preparar bis y tetra-,-lactamas mono o bimetálicas. La presencia de fragmentos Pt-etinilo en la estructura permite a las compuestos macrocíclicos obtenidos la formación de complejos pinzados con sales de plata. [source]
