Formation and structure of inclusion complexes involving α-cyclodextrin and alkyl(aqua)cobaloxime
摘要:
A series of inclusion complexes involving alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-cd) and alkyl(aqua)cobaloximes has been synthesized for the first time and characterized by elemental analysis, one and two-dimensional H-1 NMR spectroscopy. Their formation constants K-a were determined by quantitative H-1 NMR methods. The crystal structures of alpha-cd-[Co(Hdmg)(2)Pr-n(H2O)] (H(2)dmg = dimethylglyoxime) and its guest molecule [Co(Hdmg)(2)Pr-n(H2O)] were determined. According to both NMR and crystal structure data, 1:1 inclusion complexes of alpha-cd and alkylcobaloximes are formed, in which the alkyl groups of the guests are included into the cavity of alpha-cd. After formation of the inclusion complexes, variations in the bond lengths and angles around the cobalt atom, and conformation changes of the n-propyl(aqua)cobaloxime were observed. It is suggested that these changes in the guest molecule are probably due to the hydrophobic interaction between the alkyl groups and the alpha-cd cavities, and steric interaction between alpha-cd and Co(Hdmg)(2). It has also been established that the stability of the inclusion complexes in aqueous solution is related to the length and the size of the alkyl groups, the K-a values varying in the order n-C5H11 much greater than Bu(n) > Pr-n > Bu(i).
Study on the intermolecular interactions of alkylcobaloxime complexes (RCo(dmgH)2L, dmgH=dimethylglyoxime, R=alkyl, L=H2O or pyridine)
摘要:
A series of alkylcobaloxime complexes, [RCo(dmgH)(2)L, where dmgH=dimethylglyoxime, R=alkyl, L=neutral monodentate axial ligand], i.e. (EtO2C)(2)C(Me)CH2Co(dmgH)(2)H2O(1), n-C5H11Co(dmgH)(2)H2O(2), Br(CH2)(4)Co(dmgH)(2)py(3) and Br(CH2)4Co(dmgH)(2)H2-O(4), have been synthesized and characterized. Analysis and comparison of their crystal packing structures with that of our previous reported complexes, COOCH3(CH2,)(2)Co(dmgH)(2)H2O(5) and c-C6H11Co(dmgH)(2)H2O(6), disclose that one-dimensional ribbon-like zigzag hydrogen bonded networks in 1, 2 and 4 are sustained and controlled by self-assembly between dimethylglyoxime and coordinated water through O-H center dot center dot center dot O- interactions. And the further fon-nation of different types of hydrogen bond linkages with the variation of the axial groups leads to creation of special 2D or 3D architectures. However, the crystal packing structure of 5 and 6 are absolutely different from 1, 2 and 4 due to conformational isomerism effect. Additionally, different types of the protons attachment at O-H center dot center dot center dot O- bridge are observed in 3 and 4, respectively, which is favorable to the intermolecular interactions.
