Reactions of Ph2SbCl3 with RSi(OH)3 [where R = tert-Bu, cyclo-C6H11] and Ph2Si(OH)2 in toluene in the presence of triethylamine as a base were performed. Single-crystal X-ray structural elucidation of the products revealed the formation of hexanuclear antimony(V) and mixed-valent antimony (III/V) oxo-hydroxo clusters built up of an incomplete cubane subunit. Interestingly, in all the reactions, at least one Sb-C bond cleavage has been observed, leading to the formation of novel cluster assemblies [(Ph2Sb)4(PhSb)2(C4H9SiO3)2(O)6(OH)2] (1), [(Ph2Sb)4(PhSb)2(C6H11SiO3)2(O)6(OH)2] (2), [(Ph2Sb)(PhSb)2(Ph2SiO2)2(O)3(OH)2](-)Et3NH(+) (3), and [(Ph2Sb)4(Sb)2(Ph2SiO2)2(O)6(OH)2] (4), respectively.

A polymeric form of basic iron(III) acetate with an acetic acid ligand.

Acta Crystallogr C Struct Chem

December 2024

University of Melbourne, School of Chemistry, Grattan Street, Parkville, 3052, Australia.

Article Synopsis
  • - A new crystalline compound has been discovered, consisting of a ferric acetate unit and formed from hydrated iron(III) nitrate and acetic anhydride, with the chemical notation [Fe(CHO)O(CHO)].
  • - The structure features individual [FeO(OAc)] units linked by bridging acetate ions to create zigzag chains, with unique coordination of a carbonyl group from acetic acid at one of the iron centers.
  • - This is the first time an acetic acid molecule has been reported coordinating with an iron ion, showing a weaker bond that contrasts with a similar manganese compound affected by the Jahn-Teller effect.

Hyperconjugative Aromaticity-Based Circularly Polarized Luminescence Enhancement in Polyaurated Heterocycles.

J Am Chem Soc

November 2023

Key Laboratory of Bioorganic Phosphorus Chemistry & Chemical Biology (Ministry of Education), Department of Chemistry, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China.

Hyperconjugative aromaticity (HA) frequently appears in metalla-aromatics, but its effect on photophysical properties remains unexplored to date. Herein, we reveal two different HA scenarios in nearly isostructural triaurated indolium and benzofuranylium compounds. The biased HAs show a discernible effect on the spatial arrangement of metal atoms and thus tailor metal parentage in frontier orbitals and the HOMO-LUMO energy gap.

An unexpected trinuclear Cu(II)-thiazolidine complex has been synthesized by mixing CuCl·2HO with the Schiff base ligand, 1-(((4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazono)methyl)phenol , in ethanol. Unexpectedly, the reaction proceeded via the hydrolysis of the Schiff base , followed by cyclization to afford 3-methyl-5,6-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-][1,2,3]triazole (), then complexation with the Cu(II) salt, forming the trinuclear complex. The complex was characterized by means of FTIR spectra, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography.

Five new heterometallic Cu(ii)-Mn(ii) discrete trinuclear complexes, [(CuL)2Mn(CH3COO)2] (1), [(CuL)2Mn(NO3)2] (2), [(CuL)2Mn(C6H5COO)(H2O)]Cl (3), [(CuL)2Mn((p-OH)C6H5COO)(H2O)]ClO4 (4) and [(CuL)2Mn(HCOO)(H2O)]ClO4 (5), have been synthesized using a metalloligand, CuL derived from an N2O2 donor Schiff base, H2L (N,N'-bis(α-methylsalicylidene)-1,3-propanediamine). Single-crystal structural analyses reveal that all five complexes have a common [(CuL)2Mn] core, where two terminal metalloligands, CuL, are connected to the central metal ion, Mn(ii), via double phenoxido bridges. Among the complexes, 1 and 2 possess linear structures where the terminal Cu(ii) atoms are bridged to the central Mn(ii) atoms by acetate and nitrate ions, respectively along with the double phenoxido bridges, whereas 3, 4 and 5 have bent structures in which the respective anionic coligands, benzoate, p-hydroxybenzoate and formate ions are coordinated only to central Mn(ii) in monodentate fashion along with a water molecule that completes its hexa-coordinated geometry.

Assembly of High-Spin [Fe] Clusters by Ligand-Based Multielectron Reduction.

Insititut des Sciences et Ingénierie Chimiques, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland.

The hexanuclear [NaFe(tris-cyclo-salophen)(THF)], , and the trinuclear [NaFe(tris-cyclo-salophen)(py)], , Fe(II) clusters can be easily assembled in one step from the ligand-based reduction of the [Fe(salophen)(THF)] complex. These complexes consist of triangular cores where three Fe(II) ions are held together, within range of bonding interaction, by the hexa-amide, hexaphenolate macrocyclic ligand . The ligand is perfectly suited for binding three Fe(II) centers at short distances, allowing for strong magnetic coupling between the Fe(II) centers.
