Dioxomolybdenum(VI) and oxotungsten(VI) complexes with a new amine bisphenol ligand (H2L) are reported. The ligand which carries a neutral nitrogen atom, two phenolic oxygen atoms and a thiophene side-arm was synthesized by a simple one-pot Mannich reaction. Further reaction with [MoO2(acac)2] yielded a monomeric molybdenum complex [MoO2(L)(MeOH)] (2a) or a dimeric complex [Mo2O2(μ-O)2(L)2] (2b), depending on the reaction conditions. The reaction with a tungsten trisglycolate [W(eg)3] led to the formation of a monomeric compound [WO(eg)(L)] (3). In these complexes, the potentially tetradentate amine bisphenolate dianion coordinates as a tridentate O,N,O donor while the sulfur side-arm donor remains intact. The solid-state structure of 2a was investigated by X-ray crystallography.

The reduction of magnesium phthalocyanine (MgPc) with 2.2 equivalents of potassium graphite in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) gives [K2(DME)4]PcMg(OH)(1) in 67% yield. Compound 1 was structurally characterized using single crystal X-ray crystallography and was found to be a monomeric, heterometallic complex consisting of a μ3-OH ligand that bridges a [MgIIPc3-]- anion to two potassium cations solvated by four DME molecules. An absorption spectrum of 1 confirms the Pc ligand is singly reduced and has a 3–charge. The solid-state structure of 1 does not indicate breaking of the aromaticity of the Pc ligand. Compound 1 is only the second Pc3- complex and the first reduced MgPc to be isolated and structurally characterized.

The solid-state structure of nefopam methiodide, a quaternary ammonium salt of nefopam hydrochloride (a non-narcotic analgesic drug), has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Nefopam methiodide gives crystals belonging to the monoclinic P21/c space group and, at 298 K, a = 10.001(1), b = 9.928(1), c = 17.598(1) Å, β = 94.41(1)°, V = 1742.2(2) Å3, Z = 4, R(F) = 0.086, and Rw(F) = 0.108. Due to disorder, the boat (flattened chair) and twist-chair (flattened chair) conformations of the 2,5-benzoxazocine eight-membered ring were both observed in the crystal with 55:45 occupancy, respectively. Positional disorder was also observed for the iodide counterion, which showed occupancies of 81:9.5:9.5. Keywords: nefopam, analgesic, X-ray crystallography, conformation.

Ester cleavage of aspartame (L-α-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methylester) (1), by equimolar quantities of thallium ethoxide is accompanied by intramolecular cyclisation to give thallium 3-benzyl-6-(carboxylatomethyl)-2,5-dioxopiperazine (2). The solid state structure of the crystalline product was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The cations were found to form four short and four elongated contacts to seven oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom of a total of six neighbouring 3-benzyl-6-(carboxylatomethyl)-2,5-dioxopiperazine anions. There are inter-anionic hydrogen bonds only between the imino groups and the carbonyl oxygen atoms (O3, O4), featuring a pattern similar to that found for cytosine-guanosine contacts in DNA.

Two cyclic alkyl(aryl)boranes, a 1-bora-indane derivative 1, and a tricyclic derivative 4, containing the boron atom in a six-membered ring, were structurally characterized by NMR techniques in solution. The solid-state structure of the 1-bora-indane 1 was determined by X-ray crystallography. The reactivity of these cyclic alkyl(aryl)boranes towards monoalkynyltin compounds, Me3Sn-C≡C-Me and Me3Sn-C C-Fc (Fc=ferrocenyl), was studied using multinuclear magnetic resonance methods (1H, 11B, 13C, 119Sn NMR). Novel alkenylboranes were formed by 1,1-carboboration reactions. This process involves an expansion of both five- and six-membered rings. Insertion into the respective B-C(aryl) bond was preferred with high selectivity. In the case of the six-membered ring in 4, the ring expansion to seven-membered rings proved to be readily reversible, and the thermodynamically stable reaction products were formed by ring contraction and concomitant transfer of the exocyclic B-nPr group

AbstractThe new ansa-phosphinoborane (dicyclohexyl(2-(dimesitylboryl)phenyl)phosphine was synthesized via an one-pot protocol in 67% yield. The compound has been characterized by 1H, 13C, 11B and 31P NMR, and its solid-state structure determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The ansa-phosphinoborane does not react with molecular hydrogen or water at room or elevated temperature. According to performed DFT studies, heterolytic splitting of water or hydrogen by the phosphinoborane are both endergonic but close in thermodynamics. In polar solvents, such as in methanol or acetonitrile, addition of hydrogen is energetically more favorable than of water.

Complexation of cadmium(II) by the ditopic (bis-tridentate) thiocarbazone ligand 1,5-bis(6-methyl-2-pyridyl- methylene)thiocarbonohydrazide, H2L1, results in the self-assembly of a charge-neutral 2 × 2 molecular grid, [Cd4(L1)4], comprising four metals and four ligands in an interlocked cyclic array. The solid-state structure of this tetramer has been established by X-ray crystallography and in solution by 1H NMR spectroscopy. The presence of lower molecular weight oligomers was identified by both NMR and ESI-MS.

The ligand C5H4(CH2CH2CArF2OH) (3) (ArF = 3,5-C6H3(CF3)2) was prepared in two steps, from the iodo ester ICH2CH2CO2Me by way of the cyclopentadienyl ester C5H5CH2CH2CO2Me (2), in 55% overall yield. Thermal reaction of 3 with {Y[N(SiMe3)2]2(THF)2(µ-Cl)}2 afforded the neutral chloride complex {η5:η1-C5H4[CH2CH2C(O)(3,5-C6H3(CF3)2)2]}YCl{THF}n (5a: n = 2, 5b: n = 1). Metathesis reactions of 5 with 1 equiv of NaN(SiMe3)2, LiO-2,6-t-Bu2C6H3, and LiCH(SiMe3)2 afforded {η5:η1-C5H4[CH2CH2C(O)(3,5-C6H3(CF3)2)2]}Y{N(SiMe3)2}{THF}n (6), {η5:η1-C5H4[CH2CH2C(O)(3,5-C6H3(CF3)2)2]}Y{O-2,6-t-Bu2C6H3}{THF}n (7), and {η5:η1-C5H4[CH2CH2C(O)(3,5-C6H3(CF3)2)2]}Y{CH(SiMe3)2}{THF}n (8), respectively, (a: n = 2, b: n = 1). Exposure of the bis(THF) solvates to reduced pressure resulted in desolvation to the mono(THF) adducts for 5–8. The solid state structure of 6b was established by X-ray crystallography. In addition, formation of a spirocyclic ether (C4H6CH2CH2C(O)(3,5-C6H3(CF3)2)2 4), obtained by the intramolecular cyclization of ligand 3, was confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

The tridentate ligand precursors R′P(CH2SiMe2NR′′)2 (R′R′′[NPN]: R′ = Cy, Ph; R′′ = Ph, Mes, Me) were prepared from metathesis reactions of a lithiated amine, chloro(chloromethyl)dimethylsilane, the appropriate 1° phosphine, and n-butyl lithium and were isolated as solvent adducts. Metathesis between CyPh[NPN]Li2(OEt2), 2, and VCl3(THF)3 afforded (CyPh[NPN]VCl)2, 7, whose solid-state structure was established by X-ray crystallography. Reduction attempts of the (R′R′′[NPN]VCl)2 species with KC8 incorporated molecular nitrogen but were complicated by imide formation and ligand decomposition. Metathesis of 2 with NbCl2Me3 afforded the highly unstable complex CyPh[NPN]NbMe3, 15. Attempts to hydrogenate this species were unsuccessful.Key words: vanadium, niobium, metathesis, coordination chemistry, reduction, hydrogenation.
