It has been synthesized in this study that s-triazine based monomeric complexes including epoxy groups and their polymeric structures. For this reason, cyanuric chloride (I) has been used as starting material. 5-(4,6-dicholoro-2-1,3,5-triazine-2-ylamino)isophtalic acid coded as “III” has been obtained from the reaction of 5-aminoisophtalic acid II and I at -5 ºC with sodium bicarbonate in aqua/acetone media. Bis(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)-5-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5triazine-2-ylamino)izophtalate coded as “V” was synthesized from the reaction of epichlorohydrin (IV) and III in aqua/acetone media with KOH at +2 ºC. In aqua/ethanol media at 60 ºC, monomeric metal complexes (VI, VII and VIII) were obtained from the reaction of V and/or Mn+2, Co+2 and Ni+2. s-Triazine based polymeric metal complexes (IX-XIV) were obtained from the reaction of the monomeric metal complexes and 3,4dihydroxybenzaldehyde/o-phenylenediamine in 1,4-diaxane media with DIPEA at 60 ºC. The structure of ligands, monomers and polymers were characterized using 1H-NMR and 13

C-NMR, FTIR, ESI-MS, UV-vis spectrophotometers, TGA and elemental analyses.

Metal contents in the prepared monomeric and polymeric complexes were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrophotometer (ICP-AES). Magnetic behaviors of the synthesized novel monomeric and polymeric complexes were also investigated. And, these compounds were determined to be high-spin distorted octahedral Mn(II), distorted octahedral Co(II) and distorted octahedral Ni(II).

Keywords: epoxy, oxirane, complex, epichlorohydrin, s-triazine, polymer.

Introduction s-Triazine compounds are used as the ligand in coordination chemistry. They also act

as various chelating agents for the synthesis of metal complexes having interesting molecular and supramolecular structures [1-3]. s-Triazine polymers are also used for metal ion extraction [4, 5]. 1,3,5-Triazine-containing ligands are stable molecules even at above the temperature of 150 °C. They only undergo hydrolysis in the presence of concentrated mineral acids via thermal treatments [6]. In recent years, researchers have focused the synthesis of linear magnetic polymers based on s-triazine compounds due to their importance in industrial applications [7] and their potential applications in data storage and quantum computing devices [8-13]. Also, these s-triazine derivatives are important heterocyclic compounds for potential applications in pharmaceutical and biological treatments [14-21]. s-Triazine compounds are also used in various industries including plastic [22], paper [23, 24], electrical [25, 26], textile [27, 28], dye [23, 24], purification [29-33] and telecommunication system [34-38]. Moreover, these compounds have been widely used for the fabrication of light detecting optical switches and image recorders [39-43], production of flame retardant materials with low toxicity [44, 45] and an alternative to some petrochemical raw materials [46-57].

In previous works, dendrimer s-triazine complexes [58,59], linear [M(salen/salophen)] capped s-triazine-based polymeric complexes [60,61] have also been studied. Via their oxygen atoms, epoxy groups can be bonded to the metal atoms. It is seen in the literature that the oxirane group was coordinated from the axial position(s) to the central atoms of the chelates which are in the square planar and square pyramidal forms. [62]. In another previous work, linear [M(salen/salophen)] capped s-triazine-based polymeric complexes containing epoxy and dopamine groups have also been studied (Figure 1) [63]. In the present work, epoxy containing s-triazine polymer complexes were synthesized using cyanuric chloride as starting material. The s-triazine derivatives are usually synthesized using cyanuric chloride owing to the practical exchange of chlorine atoms with temperature. Substituted s-triazine derivative was produced by reaction between 5aminoisophtalic acid and 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, where the chloride was substituted by the amine group. The acidic -OH groups of the product were treated with epichlorohydrin, and monomer ligand that contains two epoxy groups were obtained. This

2

ligand was reacted with MX2.4H2O (M= Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II); X = Cl- and CH3COO-) to form monomer complexes which were polymerized with 1,2-phenylenediamine and 3,4dihydroxybenzaldehyde such that polymeric complexes were obtained. The thermal behaviors of these polymers were investigated in the temperature range of 50-900 °C. Then, the magnetic susceptibility values of these polymers were measured. Finally, Uv-Vis spectra of some of them were taken in range of 200-800 nm.

Experimental

2.1. Reagents and solvents Together with epichlorohydrin and all the solvents, cyanuric chloride (1), 5aminoisophtalic acid, 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and o-phenylenediamine were bought from Sigma and they were used without further purification. The 1H NMR and

13

C NMR

spectra of the compounds were taken with an Agilent NMR VNMRS spectrometer at 400 MHz and 100 MHz, respectively, through their dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO-d6) solutions. The internal standard of the NMR measurements was tetramethylsilane (TMS). IR spectra were measured by a Thermo SCIENTIFIC NICOLET IS5 FT-IR spectrometer using the ID5 ATR Polarization Accessory (4000–440 cm−1). Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) were performed using Hitachi STA7300 Thermal Analysis System. Elemental analyses were performed on a Leco 932 CHNS instrument where the results were in good agreement with the theoretical values. The metal contents of each complex were determined on a Varian, Vista AX CCD Simultaneous model Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrophotometer (ICP-AES). Using ethyl alcohol and chloroform as solvents, the mass spectra were measured in a Thermo TSQ Quantum Access Max LCMS/MS spectrometer. Melting points were determined using an Electro Thermal IA9000 system, while the pH values were obtained from a Milwaukee Mi 150 pH meter. Magnetic moment values of the metal complexes were determined with a Sherwood Scientific MX Gouy magnetic susceptibility apparatus using the Gouy method with Hg[Co(SCN)4] as calibrant. The effective magnetic moments per metal atom, µeff, were calculated using the well-known formula µ eff = 2.84(XMT)1/2 B.M., where XM is the molar susceptibility.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS In this study, 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine was used as the starting material. In the presence of sodium bicarbonate in acetone medium, 5-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine-2ylamino)isophthalic acid (III) was obtained from the reaction of cyanuric chloride with 5aminoisophthalic acid at -5 ° C. Fujiwara test was performed to confirm that the reaction was unidirectional and the result was evaluated as positive [64]. In the presence of KOH in acetone/water

medium,

bis(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)5-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine-2-

ylamino)iso-phtalate (V) was obtained from the reaction of an equivalent III and two equivalent epichlorohydrin (as using 10% excess of epichlorohydrin) at +2 ° C. These monomer ligands (III and V) were identified using 1H-NMR,

MnCl2.4H2O,

Co(CH3COO)2.4H2O and/or NiCl2.6H2O in ethanol media at 60 °C. Polymeric s-triazine complexes (IX-XIV) including epoxy groups were obtained from the reaction of the monomeric complexes with 3.4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and/or o-phenylenediamine in the presence of DIPEA in 1,4-dioxan media at 60 °C. The structures of these monomeric and polymeric complexes were also identified using FTIR, elemental analysis, ESI-MS, TGA and magnetic susceptibility analysis (Table 1). The polymerization degree of the polymers was determined by the molecular weight determination study with the viscometer.

3.1. Interpretation of 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR Spectra of Ligands When investigated 1H NMR spectra of III and V obtained as target ligands, for III a singlet was observed at δ=6.970 (2Ha) ppm for seconder -NH2+- group linked to s-triazine ring owing to proton migration from the acid group to the amine group, a singlet was observed at δ=8.166 (2Hb) ppm, a singlet was observed at δ=8.364 (2Hc) ppm for aromatic C-H group, and four singlets were observed between δ=10.588-11.344 (Hd and He) ppm for acidic OH groups. The reason why acidic hydrogens are observed in the spectrum is due to the fact that these hydrogens can see different environments and at the same time they are remote bond interactions (Figure 2A).

After the deuterium exchange, disappearing the peaks for acidic group between δ=10.588-11.344 ppm, and at δ=6.970 ppm observed as broad slightly for NH2+ group, and observing a singlet at δ=6.002 (1H) ppm for seconder NH group are a good evidence of formation of the ligand III (Figure 2B). Similarly, disappearing the peaks for acidic group between δ=10.588-11.344 ppm, and observing a dublet at δ=4.421 (4Hd) ppm for the next to oxirane groups, a multiplet at δ=3.138 (2He) ppm for oxirane groups, a dublet at δ=2.285 (4Hf) ppm for oxirane groups are evidence that the original target ligand (V) was obtained (Figure 3) [58, 59, 63, 65]. When the

13

C NMR spectra are examined for (III) and (V), carbon peaks of (III) are

encountered at δ=166.679 ppm for C1, δ=166.262 ppm for C2, δ=154.730 ppm for C7, δ=150.375 ppm for C3, δ=138.290 ppm for C5, δ=132.335 ppm for C4, δ=126.038 ppm for C6, and carbon peaks of (V) are encountered at δ=166.679 ppm for C1, δ=166.262 ppm for C2, δ=154.730 ppm for C7, δ=150.375 ppm for C3, δ=138.290 ppm for C5, δ=132.335 ppm

for C4, δ=126.038 ppm for C6, δ=66.481 ppm for C8, δ=49.662 ppm for C9, δ=44.445 ppm for C10. These recorded 13C and 1H resonances are consistent with the literature [58, 59, 63, 65] (Figure 4 and Figure 5).

3.2. Interpretation of FTIR Spectra of Ligand and All Complexes The characteristic FTIR bands for both ligands and all monomeric and polymeric complexes are given in experimental section. The bands at 1666 and 1667 cm-1, 3391 cm-1 and 1510 cm-1 for carbonyl, N-H stretching and N-H bending of ligand III, respectively, have verified that 5-aminoisophtalic acid has attached to s-triazine ring with its N atom. Similarly, which the bands at 1575 cm-1 and 900 cm-1 for oxirane ring stretching and oxirane ring bending of ligand V, respectively, are observed and which the band at 3287 cm-1 for OH groups are disappeared have also verified that epichlorohydrin has attached to carboxylate groups of ligands III. In addition, the observation of the band at 1371 cm-1 for COO bending of ligand III at a lower frequency of ~9 cm-1 for the ligand V also proved that the epichlorohydrin group is attached to the carboxylate groups [58-61, 63, 65-74] (Figure S1, provided as Supporting Information). When examining the FT-IR spectra of the monomer complexes, different from the FTIR spectrum of ligand V, the bands for the carbonyl groups in all the complexes were approximately 71-67 cm-1 at a higher frequency, and the bands for epoxy ring stretching vibrations in all the complexes were approximately 21-44 cm-1 at a higher frequency were observed. These data prove that the ligand V is coordinated to the metal ions (Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+) with the carbonyl oxygens and the oxirane oxygens [62, 63] (Figure S1, provided as Supporting Information). Similarly, evaluating the FT-IR spectra of the polymer complexes, characteristic bands of the polymerizing groups unlike the monomer complexes have been observed (Figure S2 and Figure S3, provided as Supporting Information). These bands at 1260 cm-1, 1294 cm-1 and 1291 cm-1 are observed for phenolic stretching vibration of IX, XII and XIII, respectively, and these bands at 1660 cm-1, 1662 cm-1 and 1682 cm-1 are also observed for carbonyl groups of aldehydes, respectively.

Interpretation of TGA Curve of Some of The Complexes Thermal analysis of the ligands, monomeric and polymeric complexes were performed where 1.00 mg sample was heated in a nitrogen atmosphere at the rate of temperature rise 10 °C/min in the range of 50-900 ºC. The weight losses of all complexes determined from the TGA analyses are in good harmony with the calculated values (Table 2). Table 2.

*Decomposition of the compounds could not be completed because heating operation was terminated at 900 °C.

As for TGA curve of ligand, monomeric and polymeric complexes, TGA curve of all compounds have been given in Figure 6 and Figure 7. Weight losses for all complexes, decomposition temperature ranges and estimated decomposed group(s) corresponding to the weight losses have been given in Table 2, particularly. Decomposition of some compounds could not be completed because heating operation was terminated at 900 °C. It

10

is believed that metal salts and s-triazine rings remain at 900 ° C without degradation (Figure 6 and Figure 7). In figure 7, it is seen that the main chains of Mn (II) and Co (II) coordination polymers remain decompose until 900 °C and the main chains of Ni (II) coordination polymers begin to degrade after 500 ° C. We can conclude that the Ni (II) salts exhibit catalytic activity in the degradation of the s-triazine polymer chains.

3.4. Interpretation of Mass Spectra (ESI-MS) of Ligands and All Complexes Electron spray ionization method was used to take the mass spectra of the ligands III and V and polymeric complexes IX and XIII (Figure 8 and Figure 9). The peaks observed at m/z = 327.96 (100%) in the mass spectrum of III, and at m/z = 440.04 (100%) in the mass spectrum of V are the molecular weight of III and V, respectively (Figure 8). As seen from the mass spectra of the polymeric complexes (IX and XIII), the specific peaks are located at m/z = 404.85 (48%) and m/z = 416.91 (85%) for IX; m/z = 404.78 (79%) and m/z = 419.96 (73%) for XIII. The molecular fragments corresponding to these peaks are given in Figure 9. The average molecular weights of the polymers (IX-XIV) were determined as 0.683, 0.680, 0.818, 0.774, 0.781 and 0.738, respectively, measuring their viscosities by the Ostwald viscometer. Using polystyrene as standard [61], the total molecular weights of these polymer complexes were determined according to the equation ŋ = kµα, where µ is the molecular weight, k and α constants were considered as 1.7 x 10-4 and 0.78 according to the previous studies [61, 75, 76]. Because of the usage of polystyrene as standard, the actual molecular weight values might be slightly higher than observed. The reason of the detected values to be lower is the fact that the polymers have a spherical type structure, also supported by other studies [61]. The average molecular weights of the polymeric complexes we obtained by this method were 41720, 41550, 52620, 49000, 49600 and 46050 g/mol for IX-XIV, respectively. According to these data, it was concluded that polymeric complex of Mn(II) consists of 66 and 69 monomer units, respectively, polymeric complex of Co(II) and Ni(II) also consists of 75 to 78 monomer units [61, 75, 76]. Mn (II) polymeric complexes are composed of relatively less monomeric units because their paramagnetic characters are relatively higher than the others. We think that

11

monomer units are more difficult to approach owing to their more paramagnetic characters and thus make the polymerization relatively difficult.

3.5. Interpretation of Effective Magnetic Moment (µeff) Measurements of All Complexes Information on the geometries of the monomer and polymer complexes synthesized in this study was obtained via their effective magnetic moments (µ eff) which were measured at 25 °C. The proposed structures of the monomeric and polymeric complexes were supported with magnetic measurements (Table 1). Monomeric complexes (VI, VII and VIII) of bis(oxirane-2-ylmethyl)-5-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine-2-ylamino)isophtalate were determined as paramagnetic with d5, d7 and d8 metal ion electron arrangement . Their effective magnetic moment (µ eff) values were determined as follows: 5.84, 3,82 and 2.79 B.M. for Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) ions in t2g3eg2, t2g5eg2 and t2g5eg3, electronic arrangement, respectively. Polymeric complexes (IX, X, XI, XII, XIII and XIV) of bis(oxirane-2ylmethyl)-5-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine-2-ylamino)isophtalate

were

determined

as

paramagnetic with d5, d5, d7, d7, d8 and d8 metal ions electron arrangement. Their effective magnetic moment (µ eff) values were determined as follows: 5.76, 5.78, 3.77, 3.79, 2.75 and 2.76 B.M for each Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) ions in t2g3eg2, t2g3eg2, t2g5eg2, t2g5eg2 and t2g5eg3, t2g5eg3, electronic arrangement, respectively. Accordingly, these monomeric and polymeric complexes seem to have distorted octahedral structures [58-61, 65-74, 77].

3.6. Interpretation of Ultraviolet Visible (UV-Vis) Spectra of Some Complexes In our study, uv-vis spectra (in the range of 200-800 nm) of some of the monomeric and polymeric complexes in ethanol media were obtained in order to explain the geometric structure of them. Considering these spectra; the Uv bands observed in the wavelengths of 237; 232; 228; 219; 234; 219-241 nm belong to π → π* electronic transitions for VI; IX; XI; XII; XIII and XIV monomeric and polymeric complexes, respectively, whereas the Uv bands in the wavelengths of 283; 279; 283; 279; 263, 282; 284; 297 nm belong to n → π* electronic transitions for VI; VIII; IX; XI; XII; XIII and XIV monomeric and polymeric complexes, respectively. In addition, the Uv bands observed in the wavelengths of 316 (π→eg); 318 (π→eg); 362 (π→t2g); 316 (π→eg); 339 (π→t2g) nm belong to Ligand→Metal charge

12

transfer transitions for compounds VI; IX; XII; XIII and XIV respectively. The charge transfer transitions for each complex has multiple values since different donor atoms are coordinated to the central atom. Thus, these complexes are evaluated to be in the distorted octahedral structure. These values are also in agreement with the literature [63, 72, 77, 78]. Since the manganese (II) ion has the high spin electronic arrangement d5 in the octahedral field, ligand field transitions cannot be observed in Mn (II) complexes. These ligand field electronic transitions were observed in visible region as follows: 3T2g → 3T1g(F) at 789, 3

T2g → 3T1g(P) at 577, 3A2g → 3T1g(F) at 666,3A2g → 3T1g(P) at 496 for VIII; 4T2g → 4A2g

at 756 4T2g → 4T1g(P) 605, 4T1g(F) → 4A2g at 694, 4T1g(F)→ 4T1g(P) at 436 for XI; 4T2g → 4

A2g at 757, 4T2g → 4T1g(P) at 563, 4T1g(F) → 4A2g at 694, 4T1g(F)→ 4T1g(P) at 433 for XII;

3

T2g → 3T1g(F) at 686, 3T2g → 3T1g(P) at 528, 3A2g → 3T1g(F) at 610, 3A2g → 3T1g(P) at 400

for XIII; 3T2g → 3T1g(F) 750, 3T2g → 3T1g(P) 524, 3A2g → 3T1g(F) 440, 3A2g → 3T1g(P) 408 for XIV (Figure S4-Figure S10). These ligand field electronic transitions proved that Co(II) and Ni(II) ions were coordinated in octahedral field. These findings were also supported by the magnetic moment measurements.

4. CONCLUSION In this work, a novel monomeric ligand, its mononuclear complexes and their polymer complexes which were the first examples of them coordinated by epoxy groups to the Mn(II), Co(II) or Ni(II) centers were synthesized. The structure of ligands, monomers and polymers were characterized using 1H-NMR and

13

C-NMR, FTIR, ESI-MS, UV-vis

spectrophotometers, TGA and elemental analyses. It was determined that these polymeric complexes (with Mn2+ and Co2+) are thermally stable complexes until 900 °C, but for the others (i.e. with Ni2+) until 500 °C. It was concluded that the Ni(II) salts have a catalytic effect on the degradation of s-triazine polymer chains. All metal ions in the complexes were determined to be octahedral structures with d5 (S = 5/2) (for Mn(II) complexes), d7 (S = 3/2) (for Co(II) complexes) and d8 (S = 1) (for all Ni(II) complexes) according to their magnetic moment values. It was determined that polymeric complexes of Mn(II) consist of 66 and 69 monomer units, respectively, and polymeric complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) also consist of 75 to 78 monomer units according to the results of viscosity measurement.
