The use of a sodium in chloride dispersion is systematically evaluated for the synthesis nickel(0) and nickel(I) complexes from readily-prepared nickel(II) precursors. A variety with phosphine bipyridine-type ligands were accessed, although some reactions found to produce mixtures nickel(I), yields highly variable. Several new obtained, these characterized using techniques including NMR spectro...

The mode of coordination of8 manganese(fI), cobaltm, nickel(H), copper(II), zinc(H), lead(II) and cadmium(I1) to sodium ascorbate (NaHAsc) was investigated using IR, UV-visible, AAS, elemental microanalyzer, conductivity, magnetic and 'M and I3C NMR spectroscopic studies, NaNAsc is bidentate and coordination was through the carbonyl group and the oxygen atom of carbon-2 enolic hydfoxyl grou...

The siderophore-based extraction of iron from the soil by bacteria is proposed as a model for a new separation methodology labeled the soil poultice, a molecular device that would selectively retrieve the complex of a targeted metal ion. In this first feasibility study we describe the synthesis and characterization of molecularly imprinted polymers based on noncovalent interactions, and their a...

Manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), and copper(II) derivatives of two inherently chiral, Tris(bipyridyl) cages (L and L') of type [ML]-(PF(6))(2)(solvent)(n) and [FeL'](ClO(4))(2) are reported, where L is the hexa-tertiary butyl-substituted derivative of L'. These products were obtained by using the free cage and metal template procedures; the latter involved the reductive amination of the res...

A series of iminopyridine ligated Co(II) (1a–7a) and Ni(II) (1b–7b) complexes were synthesized. The structures of complexes 3a, 4a, 5a, 7a, 5b, and 6b were determined by X-ray crystallographic analyses. Complex 3a formed a chloro-bridged dimer, whereas 4a, 5a, and 7a, having a substituent (4a, 5a: CH3; 7a: Br) at the 6-position of pyridine, producing the solid structures with a single ligand co...

Heteroleptic bis(dipyrrinato)copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes are synthesized. Their structures are determined by X-ray diffraction analysis, and their properties are investigated by using cyclic voltammetry, chronocoulometry, and UV/vis absorption spectroscopy.

In the title mononuclear nickel(II) complex, [Ni(C(13)H(15)ClNO)(2)], the Ni(II) atom is four-coordinated in a tetra-hedral geometry by the N and O atoms of the two Schiff base ligands.

The specific immobilisation of a histidine-tagged protein, Spi, onto mono-anchored nickel(II)-cyclam functionalised SBA-15 is reported.

Three-coordinate organometallic complexes are rare, especially with the prototypical methyl ligand. Using a hindered, rigid bidentate ligand (L), it is possible to create 12-electron methyliron(II) and 13-electron methylcobalt(II) complexes. These complexes are thermally stable, and (1)H NMR spectra suggest that the low coordination number is maintained in solution. Attempts to create the 14-el...
