A tridentate hydrazone precursor, N′-[1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene]acetohydrazide (L) (1:1 refluxed product of acetichydrazide and 2-acetylpyridine), produced two octahedral CuII and NiII derivatives, [CuL2]·NO3 (1) and [NiL2]·ClO4·H2O (2). Both are subjected to X-ray diffraction system, and structural investigation shows that the central metal atom (CuII or NiII) adopts a distorted octahedral geometry with N4O2 donor sets by coordination of a pair of independent hydrazone precursors. Besides X-ray study, IR and UV-vis spectra, thermal analysis and room temperature magnetic moments are utilized for establishing significant characteristics of both complexes. It is apparent that the M-Npyridine bonds are slightly longer than the M-Nimino bonds, Cu1-N1 and Cu1-N4 [2.300(2) and 2.038(2) Å] for 1 and Ni1-N1 and Ni1-N4 [2.075(2) and 2.084(1) Å] for 2, Cu1-N2 and Cu1-N5 [2.062(1) and 1.932(1) Å] for 1 and Ni1-N2 and Ni1-N5 [2.008(2) and 1.975(2) Å] for 2, respectively. As per our observation, the effective magnetic moment value (µeff) is found to be 1.77 B.M. for 1 and 3.06 BM for 2, respectively.
The stability change of nickel(II) ion complexes including one and two nicotinamide (B3 vitamin) molecules in aqueous dimethyl sulfoxide (XDMSO = 0–0.85 m.f.) was studied at 298.2±0.1 K and 0.25 ionic strength value (NaClO4) using the potentiometric method. The first stage constant of complexation increased until organic solvent concentration was 0.5 m.f. and reduced at higher DMSO content. The difference between complex and central ions solvation is a dominating contribution into the Gibbs energy change of mononicotinamide complex formation reaction. When the second ligand molecule was bonded into the coordination compound, the nicotinamide contribution to ΔtrGr rose and became prevailing at XDMSO = 0.7–0.85. The ligand was found to replace a water molecule in the coordination sphere of the cation according to spectrophotometric study results. [...]
Trans influence of triphenylphosphines and pseudohalogens on Ni-S bonds of NiS2PN and NiS2PC chromophores has been investigated by synthesizing and characterizing them. The complexes show the characteristic thioureide IR band at ∼ 1530 cm−1. Electronic spectrum of the cyanide analogue shows a strong blue shift relative to others. X-ray structures of [Ni(pipdtc)(4-MP)(NCS)] (1), [Ni(pipdtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (2) and [Ni(pipdtc)(PPh3)(CN)] (3) (pipdtc = piperidinecarbodithioate anion, 4-MP = tri(4-methylphenyl)phopshine) are reported. Ni-S bond distance trans to 4-MP(1) is longer than the distances in (2) and (3) and Ni-S bond distances trans to Ni-NCS/CN decrease as follows: (3) > (2) > (1). Particularly, 4-MP shows a highly significant trans influence than triphenylphosphine on Ni-S bond. Similarly, CN− exerts a marginally significant trans influence compared to NCS-. Thioureide C-N distances are relatively very short due to the drift of electron density towards the metal. The Ni-N-C angle (163.5(2)°) observed in (2) indicates deviation from linearity to a larger extent compared to that in (1) (176.3(3)°) due to the steric effect of the 4-methyl group. The reduction potentials (CV) for the mixed ligand complexes are much less compared to that of the parent NiS4 chromophore due to the π-acidic phosphines. [...]
