Article Abstract
Variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy has recently emerged as a new alternative to the magnetometry methods for studying single molecule magnets. Its use is based on an accurate determination of magnetic susceptibility tensor anisotropy Δχ, which is not always achievable due to some contact contribution to NMR chemical shifts and possible conformational dynamics. Here, we applied this approach to cholesteryl-substituted cage cobalt(II) complexes featuring a very large magnetic anisotropy. Conformational rigidity and large size of the cholesteryl substituent with many magnetically nonequivalent nuclei resulted in an excellent convergence of experimental and calculated H and C chemical shifts, thus allowing for the determination of Δχ value for all of the synthesized cobalt(II) complexes with a very high accuracy and providing a more reliable zero-field splitting energy for further calculations.

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that [Co(HO)] reacts with two HO molecules to form [(HO)Co(OOH)(HO)] reactant complexes, which decompose through three distinct pathways depending on the relative orientation between the coordinated OOH and HO ligands. The reactive intermediates produced via these activation pathways include hydroperoxyl (OOH)/superoxide (O) radicals, singlet oxygen (O), and Co(III) species [(HO)Co(O)], [(HO)Co(OH)], and [(HO)Co(OH)]. The Co(III) species display from moderate to strong oxidizing abilities that have long been overlooked.

Reaction of 2-amino-5-iodo-pyridine (5IAP) with concentrated HBr at room temperature yielded 2-amino-5-iodo-pyridinium bromide, CHIN ·Br or (5IAPH)Br. The complex formed pale-yellow crystals, which exhibit significant hydrogen bonding between the amino and pyridinium N-H donors and bromide ion acceptors. Halogen bonding is also observed.

The condensing reaction of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with quinoxalyl-2-carbohydrazide resulted in synthesizing of a novel derivative of hydrazone quinoxalyl ligand (Hdpq). The bonding behavior between Hdpq and Co(II) ion was investigated in molar ratios of 1: 1 and 2: 1 to produce two different complexes, Codpq and Co(dpq), respectively. Their chemical structure was verified using several spectroscopic approaches.

In a quest to explore interconvertible assemblies of hydrates of cobalt(II), copper(II), and zinc(II) 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate (), complexes having cation of a chloro-substituted analogue N-{(10-chloroanthracen-9-yl)methyl}-3-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propan-1-amine were investigated. In the case of cobalt and copper complexes, a crystallized stable hydrate and a less stable methanol hydrate were guided by concentration-dependent crystallizations. The unit-cells of the crystals of the methanol hydrates of the two cobalt and copper complexes each belong to the P1̅ space group but have different stoichiometries as well as large differences in packing.
