Four new 2,2'-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline complexes, namely [Mn(phenca)(2)]·(H(2)O)(2) (1), [Cu(4)(phen)(4)(OH-)(4)(H(2)O)(2)](DMF)(4)(ClO(4)-)(4)(H(2)O) (2), [Cu(2)(2,2-bipy)(2)(C(2)O(4)2-)(H(2)O)(2)(NO(3))(2)] (3) and [Cu(2,2-bipy)(2)(ClO(4)-)](ClO(4)-) (4) (2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, Hphenca = 1,10-phenanthroline-2-carboxylic acid) have been synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction. Th...

The neutral binuclear title complex, [Cd(2)(C(16)H(10)NO(2))(4)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)], is centrosymmetric, with the inversion center generating the central (μ-O)(2)Cd(2) bridge. The Cd(II) ion is in a strongly distorted CdN(2)O(5) penta-gonal-bipyramidal geometry, defined by two N atoms from one 2,2'-bipyridine ligand and five O atoms from three 2-phenyl-quinoline-4-carboxyl-ate ligands, one monod...

In the title compound, {[Cu(C(7)H(4)NO(4))(C(10)H(8)N(2))(H(2)O)]·H(2)O}(n), the Cu(I) ion is coordinated by the N atom from a 5-carb-oxy-pyridine-3-carboxyl-ate anion, two N atoms from two 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bipy) ligands and one water mol-ecule in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The 4,4'-bipy ligands bridge the Cu(I) ions into polymeric chains propagating in [201]. The latticeand the co...

A new dynamic porous coordination polymer (PCP) [Ni(dcpy)(bipy)(0.5)(H(2)O)]·1.5H(2)O (1) was synthesized by assembly of 3-(2',5'-dicarboxylphenyl)pyridine (dcpy), 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy) and NiSO(4)via solvothermal, hydrothermal and microwave methods, displaying a wavelike 2D stacked layer framework. Gas adsorption studies for 1 shows a high selective adsorption of CO(2) over other gases (N(2),...

The title compound, [Ni(C(5)O(5))(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)], lies across a crystallographic twofold axis, around which two 2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-bipy) ligands are arranged in a propeller manner. The local geometry of the NiN(4)O(2) coordination core basically adopts an octa-hedral geometry. The mol-ecular twofold axis is along the direction of the mol-ecular dipole moment, and the complex is packed wi...

BACKGROUND Lead is a heavy toxic metal element in biological systems and is one of the major pollutants as a result of its widespread use in industries. In spite of its negative roles the coordination chemistry of Pb(II) complexes is a matter of interest. The N,N'-bidentate aromatic bases such as BPY,4-BPY and PHEN (BPY = 2,2'bipyridine, 4-BPY = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, PHEN = 1,10-Phenan...

A series of heteroleptic bipyridine ruthenium complexes were prepared using known synthetic methods. Each compound incorporated one electron withdrawing 4,4'-dicarboxylic acid-2,2'-bipyridine and two bipyridines each of which had electron donating dialkylamine substituents in the 4 and 4' positions. The electronic absorption spectra exhibited absorptions that moved to lower energy as the donor ...

The condensation of 2-aminoindole-3-carbonitriles and their 3-aminoindole-2-carbonitrile isomers with various DMF-dialkoxyacetals was investigated under microwaves. The appearance of reactive and versatile alkoxyiminium species allowed convenient access to indole precursors of building blocks with potential biological activity. The experimental results have been rationalised using DFT calculati...

In this research, firstly, some derivatives of sulfur containing [1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one have been synthesized and then they were used for the synthesis novel 6′-amino-2,9′-dioxo-2′-phenyl-9′H-spiro[indoline-3,8′-pyrano[2,3-d][1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine]-7′-carbonitriles via a one-pot three-component condensation reaction 7-hydroxy-2-phenyl-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]p...
