Study of the self-assembly reactions between the organic linker 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)butadiyne and the metal-containing corners (diphosphine)M(II) (M=Pd, Pt; diphosphine=dppp, dppf, depe, dppbz)
摘要:
The diaza ligand 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)butadiyne (L) has been used as a linker in self-assembly reactions with different diphosphine Pd(II) and Pt(II) triflates to build metallosupramolecular squares and triangles. Equilibria between triangular and square entities have been detected in most of the cases and their composition studied by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The self-assembly process has been shown to be strongly dependent on the conditions of the medium and the nature of the transition metal. The ability of some of these compounds to recognise inorganic anions has been investigated. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Equilibria between Metallosupramolecular Squares and Triangles with the New Rigid Linker 1,4-Bis(4-pyridyl)tetrafluorobenzene. Experimental and Theoretical Study of the Structural Dependence of NMR Data
摘要:
The new fluorinated rigid ligand L, 1,4-bis(4-pyridyl)tetrafluorobenzene, was used in combination with different diphosphine Pd(II) and Pt(II) triflates to build metallosupramolecular assemblies. Complex equilibria between triangular and square entities were detected for all the cases. Characterization of the equilibria was accomplished by H-1, P-31{H-1}, F-19, and Pt-195{H-1} NMR in combination with mass spectrometry. The square/triangle ratio was seen to depend on several factors, such as the nature of the metal corners, the concentration, and the solvent. The relative stability of the square and triangular complexes was explored by using force field methods. A GIAO-DFT study was carried out to analyze the changes of the P-31 and H-1 NMR data with the geometry of the complexes.
