Dithiacrown Ether Substituted Porphyrazines: Synthesis, Single-Crystal Structure, and Control of Aggregation in Solution by Complexation of Transition-Metal Ions.

The synthesis of novel magnesium, copper, and metal-free porphyrazines, peripherally substituted with dithia-7-crown-2 (MPz(7)), dithia-15-crown-5 (MPz(15)), and dithia-18-crown-6 (MPz(18)) macrocycles is reported. These compounds are prepared starting from dicyanoethylene containing crown ethers 3, 2(1), and 2(2), respectively, which contain sulfur as well as oxygen heteroatoms. The "crowned" porphyrazines bind silver(I) and mercury(II) perchlorates. UV/vis spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance measurements reveal that addition of the transition-metal ions leads to dimerization of the porphyrazine complexes. In the case of the dithia-18-crown-6-substituted porphyrazines, the dimers break up to form monomeric 6:1 guest-host complexes when more than 2 equiv of the metal ion is added. The single-crystal structures of the crown ether 2(2) and the porphyrazine MgPz(18) are presented. Compound C(14)H(20)N(2)O(4)S(2) (2(2)) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c with a = 10.9310(13) Å, b = 19.383(3) Å, c = 8.6976(14) Å, beta = 108.898(11) degrees, V = 1743.5(5) Å(3), and Z = 4. The structure refinement converged to R = 0.0366 and R(w) = 0.0504. Compound C(56)H(82)MgN(8)O(17)S(8) (MgPz(18)) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P&onemacr; with a = 9.584(3) Å, b = 17.672(2) Å, c = 19.620(4) Å, alpha = 84.904(14) degrees, beta = 85.21(2) degrees, gamma = 89.29(2) degrees, V = 3298.4(13) Å(3), and Z = 2. The structure refinement converged to R1 = 0.0839 and wR2 = 0.2196. The electrical properties of H(2)Pz(18) have been studied by complex impedance spectroscopy. The bulk electrical conductivity of this compound is approximately 1 order of magnitude higher than that of the corresponding 18-crown-6 phthalocyanine.

Chemistry of Bis(aryloxo)palladium(II) Complexes with N-Donor Ligands: Structural Features of the Palladium-to-Oxygen Bond and Formation of O-H.O Bonds.

Reaction of palladium acetate with 2 equiv of sodium phenoxide in the presence of a chelate diamine ligand affords the complexes [Pd(OPh)(2)(N approximately N)] (N approximately N = bpy (1), tmeda (2), teeda (3), dpe (4), dmap (5)). These yellow to orange bis(phenoxo)palladium(II) complexes are thermally stable at room temperature in the solid state as well as in solution. Addition of an excess of pentafluorophenol to 1, 2, 4, and 5 affords crystalline complexes [Pd(OC(6)F(5))(2)(N approximately N)] (N approximately N = bpy (6), tmeda (7), dpe (8), dmap (9)). Crystals of 1 and 6 have been subjected to X-ray diffraction studies. Crystals of 1 are orthorhombic, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) (no. 19), with a = 6.7655(6) Å, b = 16.0585(10) Å, c = 16.7275(13) Å, and Z = 4. Crystals of 6 are triclinic, space group P&onemacr; (no. 2), with a = 7.567(4) Å, b = 12.708(3) Å, c = 12.912(5) Å, alpha = 61.51(3) degrees, beta = 74.74(4) degrees, gamma = 88.78(4) degrees, and Z = 2. The molecular structures of 1 and 6 show them to be square-planar complexes, and the main structural difference between these complexes is the orientation of the aromatic rings. In 6 the OC(6)F(5) ligands are almost parallel in a face-to-face orientation (pi-pi stacking interactions), whereas in 1 the OC(6)H(5) units are skewed away from each other. An unexpected "mixed" alkoxo(aryloxo) complex [Pd(OCH(CF(3))(2))(OPh)(bpy)].HOPh (10) is formed when 1 is reacted with 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol. The molecular structure of 10 shows O-H.O hydrogen bonding (O.O = 2.642(8) Å) between the hydroxyl hydrogen of phenol and the oxygen atom of the phenoxide ligand as well as an additional C-H.O contact (C.O) = 2.95(1) Å), which can be regarded as the initial stage of a base-assisted beta-hydrogen elimination. Crystals of 10 are monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, with a = 8.3241(14) Å, b = 11.0316(17) Å, c = 26.376(3) Å, alpha = 93.01(1) degrees, Z = 4. Spectroscopic data of complexes 1-10 indicate that the oxygen atom of the aryloxide or alkoxide ligand is extremely electron-rich, leading to high polarization of the palladium-to-oxygen bond. The bis(phenoxide) complexes 1, 2, and 4 associate with two molecules of phenol through O-H.O hydrogen bonds to form adducts [Pd(OPh)(2)(N approximately N)].2HOPh (N approximately N = bpy (11), tmeda (12), dpe (13)). The palladium complexes 6-9 with OC(6)F(5) groups show no tendency to form adducts with alcohols.
