Synthesis, spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of manganese, nickel and iron octakis-(2-diethylaminoethanethiol)-phthalocyanine

[ReCl3(dpk-N,N0 )(OPPh3)] (2) and [ReOBr3(dpkOH)]Æ2(dpkH+Br)) (3). All the complexes have been characterized spectroscopically and structurally (by single-crystal X-ray diffraction). The complex 2 has been additionally studied by magnetic measurement. The magnetic behavior is characteristic of mononuclear octahedral Re(III) complex with d4 low-spin (3T1g ground state) and arise because of the large spin–orbit coupling (f = 2500 cm)1), which gives diamagnetic ground state. DFT and time-dependent (TD)DFT calculations have been carried out for [ReCl3(dpk-N,N0 )(OPPh3)] and [ReOBr3(dpkOH), and their UV–vis spectra have been discussed on this basis.

Manganese (3), nickel (4) and iron (5) phthalocyanine complexes, octa-substituted at the peripheral positions with diethlyaminoethanethiol substituents show that the central metal plans a significant role in the aggregation behavior, with Mn phthalocyanine derivatives showing the presence of l oxo dimers.

New soluble methylendioxy-phenoxy-substituted zinc phthalocyanine derivatives: Synthesis, photophysical and photochemical studies

A series of Ni(II), Pd(II) and Cu(II) metal complexes of highly functionalized aroylaminocarbo-N-thioyl pyrrolidines were prepared and characterized by microanalysis, spectroscopic methods, magnetic susceptibility measurements and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The antifungal activity of the metal complexes against the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisae and against the fungus Penicillium digitatum was studied.

Photophysical and photochemical studies of the peripherally tetrakis- (4) and octakis- (6) and non-peripherally (5) tetrakis-3,4-(methylendioxy)-phenoxy-substituted zinc phthalocyanines show complex 4 to have higher singlet oxygen quantum yields, fluorescence quantum yields, triplet quantum yields and triplet life times than complexes 5 and 6.

The average crystallite sizes obtained from XRD were between 35 and 39 nm. Magnetization measurements indicate that samples with less Co content have superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature. When the Co substitution increases the saturation magnetization and coercivity also increase due to anisotropic nature of cobalt. The CoxZn1)xFe2O4 nanoparticles exhibit typical features of an assembly of magnetic particles with a distribution of blocking temperatures and indicate the spin-glass behavior.

magnetic field reveals the presence of two FeIIIA and FeIIIB spin sites with different responses towards the external magnetic field that is most probably responsible for the uncompensated magnetization. Breaking the local symmetry of the FeIII sites by the bulky N(n-C5H11)4 cations together with a small difference in g-factors for MnII and FeIII ions and a relatively large zerofield splitting for MnII may be a reason for the two non-equivalent sites within the iron sublattice.

In this manuscript, we present the characteristic pattern of the matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionisation time-of-flight (MALDITOF) mass spectra of Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes. Experimental conditions (matrix, addition of trifluoro acetic acid and addition of inorganic salt) were varied in order to find the best suitable conditions for reliable analysis of MALDITOF mass spectra of selected Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes.

Copper (II) complexes derived from 5-((4-nalkoxyphenyl)azo)-N-(3-hydroxypropyl) salicylaldimine homologous are reported. The mesogenic properties of these complexes were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing microscope.

All the complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR [1H, 13C and 19F] studies. The crystal structures of complexes 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 have been determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. The structure of complexes show that the five-coordinated antimony(V) atom adopts a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Furthermore, weak but significant intermolecular C–HÆÆÆO, C–HÆÆÆF hydrogen bonds, C–HÆÆÆPi stacking lead to aggregation and assembly of these complexes into 1D and 2D supramolecular frameworks.

uclear water clusters self-assembled by means of hydrogen bonding interactions between water molecules. The (H2O)10 clusters display extensive multiple interactions with the dimeric units, leading to the formation of an extended 3D supramolecular assembly, wherein hexameric water clusters interconnected with dodecameric hybrid water–Ooxalate clusters can be recognized. The comparison of this supramolecular architecture with that found in the already known compound of formula [Fe(bpm)3]2[Fe2(ox)5]Æ8H2O (2) allows some preliminary observations on the design and control of hydrate formation depending on the size and shape of templating cations.

Three new tetrahedral rhenium cluster compounds [Re4Q4(PMe2Ph)4X8]ÆnCH2Cl2 (X = Br, Q = Se (1), Te (2); X = Cl, Q = Te (3)) have been synthesized by reaction [Re4Q4(TeX2)4X8] (X = Br, Q = Se (for 1), Te (for 2); X = Cl, Q = Te (for 3)) with dimethylphenylphosphine in dichloromethane. All compounds have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Different isomers were found to be crystallized out by layering of diethylether on CH2Cl2 solution.

Heterocyclic cadmium dithiocarbamates, [Cd(S2CNC5H10)2] and [Cd(S2CNC9H10)2] were synthesized. The complexes were thermolysed in hexadecylamine (HDA) to give HDA capped CdS nanoparticles.

The present investigation reports on the synthesis and characterization of zirconium oxide (ZrO2) nanoparticles using thermolysis. Pure zirconium oxide (ZrO2) nanoparticles with diameters of 30–40 nm are fabricated from [bis(2-hydroxyacetophenato)oxozirconium(IV)], [Zr(HAP)3(H2O)2](NO3), as a precursor in the presence of oleylamine and triphenylphosphine as the solvent and capping agent.

We have synthesized and structurally characterized three 3D Cu(II) complexes which are derived from 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylate with dissimilar ligands. One of the complexes has a 1-D zigzag polymeric structure and tdc behaves as a bidentate ligand. In the other complexes, the tdc dianion acts as a counter ion. In all these complexes the Cu(II) atom has a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Three-dimensional frameworks are constructed though hydrogen bonding and/or C–HÆÆÆp interactions in all the synthesized complexes.

A series of new manganese(I) monometallic and bimetallic complexes and manganese(I)–ruthenium(II) heterobimetallic complexes are synthesized and characterized. A weak interaction between two metal centers in Mn–Ru heterobimetallic complexes is observed. The Mn–Ru heterobimetallic complexes, show interesting photophysical properties.

X-ray crystallographic analysis on [CuL3Æ(py)]Æpy shows that the complex has a near square pyramidal, penta-coordinate geometry. The binegatively charged tetradentate Schiff base is asymmetrically coordinated to the Cu(II) ion via the pyridine N, the azomethine N, the sulfonyl O and the hydrazine N. A pyridine molecule is apically coordinated to the Cu(II) ion.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies on Zn3(HL)2(OAc)4 evidence that HL) is acting as an O,N-donor. A study of the luminescence properties in methanol solution showed that the quantum yield of Zn3(HL)2(OAc)4 is slightly higher than that of 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxaldehyde.

Tetrahedrally distorted copper(II) sparteine pseudohalide complexes having the CuN4 chromophore were prepared and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques and X-ray crystallography. The results of X-ray crystallography and ESR spectroscopy are in a good agreement with the assumption that the degree of distortion from planar to tetrahedral will reduce the A|| value of four-coordinate copper(II) sparteine pseudohalide complexes.

Molecular structure of stibines (2), (3), (4) and (5) have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Molecular structure show that none of these heterobimetallic compound possess hypervalent interaction in the solid state. This type of interaction was found in similar compounds with CH2NR2 pendant arm.

Cp–Li and Cp–Na complexes involving substituted Cp rings were investigated using highlevel ab initio molecular orbital theory. The Cpmetal distances and binding energies correlate P very well with the Cp rm values. Furthermore, the metal charge correlates very well P with the Cp |rm| values.
