Six new complexes of the type trans-[LCo((DO)(DOH)pn)L'] where (DO)(DOH)pn= N2, N2'-propanediolbis (2,3-butanedione 2-imine 3-oxime), L-Cl¯ and L'=mono-anaion of phenylcyanamide (pcyd), 2,5-dichlorophenylcyanamide (2,5-Cl2 pcyd), 2,4-dimethyl pehylcyanamide (2,4-Me2 pcyd) and L=L'=pcyd, 2,5-Cl2 pcyd, 2,4-Me2 pcyd, have been s...

The assignments structures of the four 1:1 pipemidic acid (pipH)–magnesium(II), calcium(II), zinc(II), and iron(III) complexes, [Mg(pip)(H2O)3(Cl)].6H2O, [Ca(pip)(H2O)3(Cl)].2H2O, [Zn(pip)(H2O)3(Cl)].4H2O, [Fe(pip)(H2O)2(Cl)2].6H2O, (where pip = deprotonated pipemidic), were synthesized through chemical reactions MgCl2.6H2O, CaCl2.2H2O, ZnCl2, FeCl3.6H2O metal salt chlorides with pipH chemother...

Ultrafast transient absorption spectra in the deep to near UV range (212-384 nm) were measured for the [Cu(II)(MeOH)(5)Cl](+) complexes in methanol following 255-nm excitation of the complex into the ligand-to-metal charge-transfer excited state. The electronically excited complex undergoes sub-200 fs radiationless decay, predominantly via back electron transfer, to the hot electronic ground st...

In the title complex, [Cu(2)Cl(4)(C(17)H(22)N(2))(2)], the Cu(II) cation is coordinated by a N,N'-dibenzyl-propane-1,2-diamine ligand and two Cl(-) anions, and a Cl(-) anion from an adjacent mol-ecule further bridges to the Cu(II) cation in the apical position, with a longer Cu-Cl distance of 2.9858 (18) Å, forming a centrosymmetric dimeric complex in which each Cu(II) cation is in a distorted ...

Oxygenation of Ir(2)(II,II)(tfepma)(2)(CN(t)Bu)(2)Cl(3)H (1, tfepma = CH(3)N[P(OCH(2)CF(3))(2)](2)) furnishes Ir(2)(II,II)(tfepma)(2)(CN(t)Bu)(2)Cl(3)(OOH) (2), the first isolable iridium hydroperoxo complex. This complex transfers an oxygen atom to triphenylphosphine, producing triphenylphosphine oxide and Ir(2)(II,II)(tfepma)(2)(CN(t)Bu)(2)Cl(3)(OH) (3) in high yield. Reaction of 2 with acid ...

The 4'-(2-fluorenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (FT) ligand and its cis(Cl,Cl)- and trans(Cl,Cl)-[Ru(II)(FT)Cl2(NO)](PF6) complexes have been synthesized. Both isomers were separated by HPLC and fully characterized by (1)H and (13)C NMR. The X-ray diffraction crystal structures were solved for FT (Pna21 space group, a = 34.960(4), b = 5.9306(7), c = 9.5911(10) Å), and trans(Cl,Cl)-[Ru(II)(FT)Cl2(N...
