Visible, 1H NMR and infrared spectra of the charge-transfer (CT) complexes of polynuclear- [2.2]paracyclophanes and their sulfur analogues as electron donors with 2,3-dichloro-5.6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ ), tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and 9-dicyanom ethylene-2,4,7-trinitrofluorene (DTF) as π-acceptors have been measured. The data indicate an unexpected high basicity of the polynuclear hydrocarbons relative to their sulfur analogues. The types of CT interactions as well as different factors governing the stability of the CT complexes studied are discussed. The effect of temperature on the CT complexes studied are discussed. The effect of temperature on the CT complexes with TCNE is reported.

The reactions of ketotifen fumarate (KT) with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) as π acceptors to form charge transfer (CT) complexes were evaluated in this study. Experimental and theoretical approaches, including density function theory (DFT), were used to obtain the comprehensive, reliable, and accurate structure elucidation of the developed CT complexes. The CT complexes (KT-DDQ and KT-TCNQ) were monitored at 485 and 843 nm, respectively, and the calibration curve ranged from 10 to 100 ppm for KT-DDQ and 2.5 to 40 ppm for KT-TCNQ. The spectrophotometric methods were validated for the determination of KT, and the stability of the CT complexes was assessed by studying the corresponding spectroscopic physical parameters. The molar ratio of KT:DDQ and KT:TCNQ was estimated at 1:1 using Job’s method, which was compatible with the results obtained using the Benesi–Hildebrand equation. Using these complexes, the quantitative determination of KT in its dosage form was successful.

Charge transfer (CT) complexes of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) with iodine as a typical σ-type acceptor and with typical π-type acceptor, 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ), have been synthesized and characterized. Octafluorotoluene (OFT), octafluoronaphthalene (OFN), perfluorophenanthrene (PFP), and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridine-4-carbonitrile (TFP) were also used as acceptors for interaction with DMAP. Properties of such CT complexes were investigated by UV/VIS and IR spectra, and elemental analyses of the isolated complexes. The systems DMAP-iodine and DMAP-DDQ are characterized by formation of triiodide ions (I3-) and DDQ•- anion radicals, respectively, which is proposed to occur via initial formation of outer-sphere CT complexes. The systems (DMAP-OFT, DMAP-OFN, DMAP-PFP and DMAP-TFP) are characterized by the appearance of new UV/VIS spectral bands assigned as CT bands; they also furnished the corresponding solid complexes with the stoichiometric ratio 1:1. 1H and 19F NMR spectra were used on confirming the formation of the DMAP-PFP CT complexes. The formation constants (KCT) and molar absorption coefficients (εCT) of the latter complex were obtained.

The charge-transfer (CT) complexes of some N-arylcarbamates as donors with a number of π-acceptors have been studied spectrophotometrically. The Lewis basicities of the N-arylcarbamates as well as the types of interactions are discussed. The 1H-NMR spectra of some CT complexes with both 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) and 7,7,8,8 tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) indicate a decrease of the electron density on the donor part of the complex.

The charge transfer complexes of 2,3- (I) and 2,6-Dimethylnaphthalenes (II) as electron donors with tri- and di-nitrobenzenes as electron acceptors are prepared and investigated by element analysis, IR. 1H nmr and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The results showed that I yields CT complexes of 1:1 type only while II is capable of forming 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 (donor: acceptor) compounds. The spectral characteristics of the CT complexes are pointed out and discussed. The difference in the donor behaviour between I and II is explained in the light of PPP-MO calculations.

Charge-transfer (CT) complexation between some [2.2]- and [2.2.2]paracyclophane-carbamates as donors with 2,3-dichloro-5.6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDO ) as well as tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) as π-acceptors has been evidenced by VIS. 1H NMR and IR spectroscopy. The site of interaction in the two different donor systems was determined. The results reveal no contribution of the nitrogen lone pair electrons of the carbamate functional group in the CT complexation. and the interaction is mainly of π-π* type. In addition, the existence of the transannular electronic interactions in [2.2]paracyclophane derivatives is responsible for CT complex formation.

Abstract The topic of charge-transfer (CT) complexation of vital drugs has attracted considerable attention in recent years owing to their significant physical and chemical properties. In this study, CT complexes derived from the reaction of the anti-hyperuricemic drug allopurinol (Allop) with organic p-acceptors [(picric acid (PA), dichlorodicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ) and chloranil (CHL)] were prepared, isolated and characterized by a range of physicochemical methods, such as IR, Raman, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The stoichiometry of the complexes was verified by elemental analysis. The results show that all complexes that were formed were based on a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. This study suggests that the complexation of Allop with either the DDQ or CHL acceptor leads to a direct p®p* transition, whereas the molecules of Allop and PA are linked by intermolecular hydrogen- bonding interactions.

Electrical conductivity technique has been employed to investigate the molecular interaction of aza-aromatics viz. pyridine, α-pikoline, β-picoline and γ-picoline with haloanils, namely chloranil, bromanil and fluranil. The stoichiometry of the charge transfer (CT) complexes has been established and molar conductivities of the complexes determined employing the method of Gutmann and Keyzer. A model has been proposed for determining the equilibrium constant (K) of 1 : 1 molecular complexes of CT type by conductometric measurements. The model involves the assumption: 1/σ = [(1 + K c0A)/qdK c0A] (1/c0D) + (1/qd c0A), where σ is the conductivity of the molecular complex, qd is the extent of depolarization of the complex, c0A) and c0D) are the initial concentrations of the acceptors and donors, respectively. The values of K and qd follows the expected trend of the conductometric parameters determined by the method of Gutmann and Keyzer as well as ionization potential of donors, thereby substantiating the validity of the model proposed. The observed and theoretical values of thermodynamic parameters for the aza-aromatic-chloranil systems that the interaction of aza-aromatics with haloanils is occurring through the lone pair of nitrogen ring.
