Fine-Tuning the Oxidative Ability of Persistent Radicals: Electrochemical and Computational Studies of Substituted 2-Pyridylhydroxylamines
摘要:
N-tert-Butyl-N-2-pyridylhydroxylamines were synthesized from 2-halopyridines and 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane using magnesium halogen exchange. The use of Turbo Grignard generated the metallo-2-pyridyl intermediate more reliably than alkyllithium reagents. The hydroxylamines were characterized using NMR, electrochemistry, and density functional theory. Substitution of the pyridyl ring in the 3-, 4-, and 5-positions was used to vary the potential of the nitroxyl/oxoammonium redox couple by 0.95 V. DFT computations of the electrochemical properties agree with experiment and provide a toolset for the predictive design of pyridyl nitroxides.

[2-(tBuNO)py]− = N-tert-butyl-N-2-pyridylnitroxide, indicate a 2.51 V stabilization of the 4+ oxidation state of Ce compared to [nBu4N]2[Ce(NO3)6] in acetonitrile and a 2.95 V stabilization compared to the standard potential for the ion under aqueous conditions. Density functional theory calculations suggest that this preference for the higher oxidation state is a result of the tetrakis(nitroxide) ligand framework
电化学实验在复杂的Ce进行IV [2-(吨BUNO)吡啶] 4,其中[2-(吨BUNO)吡啶] - = ñ -叔丁基- ñ -2- pyridylnitroxide,表示的一个2.51 V稳定与[ n Bu 4 N] 2 [Ce(NO 3)6与乙腈在水溶液中的离子电势相比,具有2.95 V的稳定度(与离子的标准电势相比)。密度泛函理论计算表明,这种对较高氧化态的偏爱是由于Ce阳离子上的四(硝基氧)配体骨架的结果,该骨架允许将有效的电子捐赠给具有δ对称性的空的4f轨道,并与之部分共价重叠。结果证明了CeO 2和相关固溶体在氧气吸收和运输应用中的行为,特别是稳定4+氧化态的键的固有局部特征。结果表明,铈(IV)配合物已通过调整其配体场环境而被稳定到了前所未有的程度。
Ferro- and Antiferromagnetic Coupling Switch Accompanied by Twist Deformation around the Copper(II) and Nitroxide Coordination Bond
Twonovelcopper(II) complexes with tert-butyl 2-pyridyl nitroxide (2pyNO(*)), [Cu(2+)(2pyNO(-))(2pyNO(*))](2)(BF(4)(-))(2) (1 x BF(4)) and [Cu(2+)(2pyNO(-))(2pyNO(*))](2)(ClO(4)(-))(2) (1 x ClO(4)), were prepared and structurally characterized. They contained mixed-valent ligands from 2pyNO, whose oxygen atoms were located at equatorial positions of the copper ion. The [Cu(2+)(2pyNO(-))(2pyNO(*))]

Magnetic study on radical-gadolinium(III) complexes. Relationship between the exchange coupling and coordination structure
Antiferro- and ferromagnetic couplings were observed in [Gd(hfac)(3)(2pyNO)(H2O)] and [Gd(hfac)(3)(-HNN)(2)], respectively, where 2pyNO stands for tert-butyl 2-pyridyl nitroxide and HNN for 4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazolin-1-oxyl 3-oxide. The magnitude of the former is the largest in Gd-nitroxide complexes (2J/k(B) = -13.8(3) K). An empirical relation between the exchange coupling and torsion angle Gd-O-N-C is drawn, where large torsion (>36 degrees) favors ferromagnetic coupling. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Understanding of the sensitivity of the reduction potential of cerium(IV) cations to ligand field strength has yet to benefit from systematic variation of the ligand environment. Detailed analyses for a series of seven cerium(IV) tetrakis(pyridyl-nitroxide) compounds and their cerium(III) analogues in varying ligand field strengths are presented.
