summary Mixed-ligand complexes of nickel(I1) with 2,2’-bipyridine (bipy) and 3,4dimercaptotoluene (DMT) and with l,lO-phenanthroline (phen) and 3,4dimercaptotoluene were prepared and characterized. These complexes give sharp ‘H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra in dimethyl-d, sulphoxide which suggests that they are diamagnetic and square planar. They show five absorption bands in the region 250 - 600 nm. One of these bands shows a bathochromic shift of about 50 nm when the solvent is changed from CH,OH to CHC13. They also act as physical quenchers of the photo-oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol sensitized by haematoporphyrin IX with quenching rate constants of 6.8 X lo9 and 1.1 X 10” M-’ s-l for [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] and [Ni(phen)(DMT)] respectively. These values approach the quenching rate constant (1.1 X 10” M-’ s-l) of a diamagnetic square planar complex of bis( di-n-butyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) which is a singlet molecular oxygen quencher.

1. Introduction Nickel(I1) chelates act as quenchers of singlet molecular oxygen ( ‘02) [l - 63. Diamagnetic square planar nickel(I1) complexes are very efficient quenchers of ‘02 with efficiencies approaching that of a diffusion-controlled process. In these nickel(I1) complexes the best quenchers have the nickel atom coordinated to four sulphur atoms and throughout the diamagnetic group the order of efficiency is S4 > N4 > N202 [5]. These diamagnetic square planar nickel(I1) complexes show much higher efficiency than the paramagnetic nickel(I1) complexes of tetrahedral geometry [ 3 - 51. This work describes the preparation and characterization of diamagnetic square planar nickel(I1) complexes of the type [Ni(NN)(DMT)] (where TAuthor

NN is 2,2’-bipyridine or l,lO-phenanthroline and DMT is the dianion of 3,4dimercaptotoluene). The quenching efficiencies of these complexes in dimethylformamide (DMF) were obtained using haematoporphyrin IX as photosensitizer and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol as a chemical trap of lo*.

2. Experimental details

2.1. Materials [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] (where bipy is 2,2’-bipyridine) was prepared as follows [7]. Nickel chloride hexahydrate (1 mmol) and 3,4dimercaptotoluene (2 mmol) were refluxed in water for 90 min, when black crystals of Ni(DMT)2 were obtained. These crystals were filtered, recrystallized from chloroform and dried in a vacuum desiccator over anhydrous calcium chloride. Ni(DMT)* (1 mmol) and 2,2’-bipyridine (1 mmol) were then refluxed in 50 ml of toluene for 90 min, when black-purple crystals of [WbiwNDM’Ql were obtained. They were filtered, recrystallized from chloroform, and dried in a vacuum desiccator over anhydrous calcium chloride. Analysis: calculated for C1,Hi4N2NiSZ: C, 55.33%; H, 3.80%; N, 7.59%; found: C, 54.97%; H, 4.28%; N, 7.20%. [ Ni(phen)( DMT)] (where phen is 1 ,lO-phenanthroline) was prepared following the procedure given for [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] using l,lO-phenanthroline instead of 2,2’-bipyridine. Analysis: calculated for C i9Hi4N2NiS2: C, 58.06%; H, 3.56%; N, 7.13%; found: C, 58.55%; H, 3.61%; N, 6.79%. Bis(di-n-butyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) was prepared by the method given in ref. 8. Nickel chloride hexahydrate, 2,2’-bipyridine and l,lO-phenanthroline monohydrate were obtained from Glaxo (India). 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-4piperidinol and 3,4dimercaptotoluene were obtained from Fluka (Switzerland). Haematoporphyrin IX was obtained from Sigma (U.S.A.). All compounds were used as received. Other chemical used were of analytical grade. The reagent grade solvents were purified before use by the standard procedures [ 91.

2.2. Measurements

The physical methods used have been described elsewhere [ 10 - 121.

3. Results 3.1. Characterization of [Ni(bipy)(DMT) J and [Ni(phen)(DMT)] The chemical analyses of the nickel(U) complexes suggest that they are mixed-&and complexes containing diimine as one ligand and 3,4dimercaptotoluene as the other ligand. The low molar conductance values of 8.5 and 8.1 cm2 52-l for [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] and [Ni(phen)(DMT)] respectively in DMF (10e3 M) suggest that they are non-electrolytes [13]. The IR spectra of these nickel(H) complexes show that the characteristic bands of 2,2’-bipyridine and l,lO-phenanthroline are shifted to higher frequencies on coordination. The v(S-H) vibration observed in free 3,4-dimercaptotoluene at 2540 cm-’ is not present in the nickel(I1) complexes, suggesting the binding of both sulphur atoms of the ligand to nickel(I1) [14]. The ‘H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals of both ligands in [Ni(NN)(DMT)] in (CD3)#0 are observed and they can be interpreted by following the peaks assigned for [Pt(bipy)(DMT)] [ 151. The integrated areas obtained from the protons of the diimine ligand and from the protons of the 3,4-dimercaptotoluene are in the desired ratio for the complex. The sharp ‘H NMR signals suggest that the complexes are diamagnetic with a square planar geometry. The electronic absorption spectra of the mixed-ligand nickel(I1) complexes in DMF show five bands as shown in Table 1. The four bands in the region 260 - 364 nm have been assigned on the basis of the assignments for [M(NN)ClJ (where M2+ = PdZf and Pt2+) [16,17]. Thus bands 2 and 4 given in Table 1 are tentatively assigned to charge-transfer transitions from TABLE

the metal d orbital to the K antibonding orbitals of the diimine ligands. Bands 3 and 5 are tentatively assigned to intraligand n-r* transitions of the diimine ligands. In these complexes, an additional strong band (band 1) is observed in the visible region. This band is highly solvent dependent and shows a bathochromic shift with a decrease in polarity of the solvent as shown in Table 1. This band is attributed to a charge-transfer transition from the highest occupied molecular orbital of the 3,4dimercaptotoluene dianion to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of the diimine ligand via the metal [7,18]. 3.2. Photo-oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol sensitized by haematoporphyrin IX: detemtination of the rate constant of chemical quenching of ‘02 Molecular-oxygen-saturated DMF solutions containing a constant concentration of haematoporphyrin IX (5 X 10d5 M) and various concentrations of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol (NH) in the range 10-l - 2 X lop3 M were irradiated with light of wavelength 300 - 800 nm (see Section 2.3) for 1 h. The amount of nitroxide radical (NO) produced in each case was measured by the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) method [lo, 121. Values of 1/ [NO] were then plotted against 1/ [NH] as shown in Fig. 1. The slope and intercept were obtained from this plot. The rate constant k, of chemical quenching of ‘02 was calculated using eqn. (2) (see Section 4) [ 19,201, taking the rate constant lzd of quenching of ‘02 by DMF molecules as 1.4 X lo5 s-l [3]. The 12,value obtained is 5.0 X lo7 M-l s-l.

3.3. Determination of the quenching rate constant for [Ni(bipy)(DMT)], [Ni(phen)(DMT)] and bis(di-n-butyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) Molecular-oxygen-saturated DMF solutions containing constant concentrations of haematoporphyrin IX (2 X 10ms M) and two concentrations of [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] (10e4 M or lo-’ M) with varying concentrations of 2,2,6,6tetramethyl-4-piperidinol (10-l - 2 X 1O-3 M) were irradiated with light of wavelength 300 - 800 nm for 1 h. The amount of nitroxide radical produced in each case was measured by the EPR method [ 10,121. Values of l/[ NO] were then plotted against l/[NH] for the two different concentrations of [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] (10e4 M and lo-’ M). Two linear plots were obtained, which meet at one point on the y axis as shown in Fig. 2. The values of the of [Niquenching rate constant k, for 10d4 M and lo-’ M concentrations (bipy)(DMT)] were calculated using eqn. (4) (see Section 4) [20]. The values are 8.5 X lo9 and 5.1 X lo9 M-’ s-l respectively. The average k, value is 6.8 X lo9 M-’ s-l. The experiments described above were repeated using [Ni(phen)(DMT)] instead of [Ni(bipy)(DMT)]. The linear plots of l/[NO] us. l/[NH] for 10e4 M and lops M concentrations of [Ni(phen)(DMT)] are given in Fig. 3. The values of k, for 10m4 M and lops M concentrations of [Ni(phen)-

A linear plot of l/[NO] us. l/[NH] was obtained for the nickel complex (10e6 M) (see Fig. 4). The value of Iz, obtained from this plot is 1.1 X 10” M-’ s-‘. This value is comparable with the reported value of 1.7 X ~O’“M-‘S-~ in isooctane [3].

4. Discussion The rate constant 12, of production of nitroxide radicals in the reaction of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol with ‘02 in ethanol is known [19]. However, the rate constant of production of nitroxide radicals in this reaction in DMF is not known and thus has been determined for the first time. The mechanism and the kinetic equation derived on the basis of this mechanism [ 191 for the photo-oxidation of 2,2,6;6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol using haematoporphyrin IX as photosensitizer are given below. hv

In eqn. (1) the amount of nitroxide radical produced will be proportional to [NH] at a limiting value of k, [NH]. In our experiments the intensity of light and the quantum yield of triplet formation of haematoporphyrin IX are constant, and therefore a plot of l/[NO] (or l/(d[NO]dt)) us. l/[NH] is linear as shown in Fig. 1.

Taking k, = 1.4 X 10s se1 and k, = 5.0 X 10’ M-’ s-l, k, can be calculated from eqn. (4). The k, values thus calculated for [Ni(phen)(DMT)], [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] and bis(di-n-butyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) are 1.1 X lOlo, 6.8 X lo9 and 1.1 X 10” M-’ s-’ respectively (see Section 3.3). These k, values suggest that the nickel(D) complexes quench ‘02 with an efficiency approaching that of a diffusion-controlled process. The physical quenching of ‘02 by the nickel(I1) complexes is supported by the unchanged intensity of the absorption spectra of the nickel(I1) complexes in the UV and visible regions after irradiation of their DMF solutions for 1 h with light of wavelength 300 - 800 nm in the presence of haematoporphyrin IX as monitored by difference spectroscopy. The physical quenching of IO2 in the photooxidation reaction is further supported by the data in Figs. 2 and 3. In these figures two linear plots with different slopes meeting at one point on the y axis are obtained for two different concentrations of the nickel complex and this rules out the radical mechanism [ 31. The physical quenching of ‘0, by the nickel(I1) complexes seems to involve a spin-allowed energy transfer to produce a low-lying triplet ligand field state of the complexes [21,22]. 2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-4-piperidinol acts as a specific chemical quencher of IO2 and does not react with the superoxide ion, hydrogen peroxide or hydroxyl radicals [12,23]. The variation in the k, values for [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] and [Ni(phen)(DMT)] suggests that the size of the diimine ligand does not have much effect. The square planar geometry of the nickel(I1) complexes seems to have a major controlling effect, In this geometry ‘02 has an unhindered approach to the nickel atom from above or below the plane formed by the coordinating atoms and thus can easily interact with an orbital perpendicular to this plane [5]. The factors which determine the relative efficiency of a complex in quenching ‘02 are less obvious [ 53. The best quenchers have a nickel atom coordinated to four sulphur atoms in a diamagnetic square planar complex. The present work on square planar nickel complexes containing a nickel atom coordinated to two nitrogen and two sulphur atoms suggests that these complexes approach the efficiency of nickel complexes containing a nickel atom coordinated to four sulphur atoms in the quenching of ‘Oz. Thus the order of efficiency throughout the diamagnetic group is S4 > N,S2 > N4 > N202.

5. Conclusions This study suggests that [Ni(bipy)(DMT)] and [Ni(phen)(DMT)] can act as physical quenchers of ‘Oz. These diamagnetic square planar complexes which have a nickel atom coordinated to two nitrogen and two sulphur

atoms can approach the ‘02 quenching ability of the best quenchers have a nickel atom coordinated to four sulphur atoms.
