We have previously demonstrated that the complex [(L1O)MoOCl(2)], where L1OH = (2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-methylphenyl)bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)methane, exists as both cis and trans isomers (Kail, B.; Nemykin, V. N.; Davie, S. R.; Carrano, C. J.; Hammes, B. S.; Basu, P. Inorg. Chem. 2002, 41, 1281-1291). Here, the cis isomer is defined as the geometry with the heteroatom in the equatorial position, and the trans isomer is designated as the geometry with the heteroatom positioned trans to the terminal oxo group. The trans isomer represents the thermodynamically more stable geometry as indicated by its spontaneous formation from the cis isomer. In this report, we show that for complexes of [(LO)MoOCl(2)], where LOH is the sterically less restrictive (2-hydroxyphenyl)bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)methane, only the trans isomer could be isolated, while in the corresponding thiolate containing ligand (2-dimethylethanethiol)bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)methane (L3SH) only the cis isomer could be observed. In addition, we have isolated and structurally characterized the complex [(L1O)MoO(OPh)(Cl)], a rare example of a species possessing both cis and trans phenolates. Using DFT calculations, we have investigated the origins of the differences in stability between the cis and trans isomers in these complexes and suggest that they are related to the trans influence of the oxo-group. Crystal data for [(LO)MoOCl(2)] (1) include that it crystallizes in the triclinic space group P(-)1 with cell dimensions a = 8.9607 (12) A, b = 10.596 (4) A, c = 13.2998 (13) A, alpha = 98.03 (2) degrees, beta = 103.21 (2) degrees, gamma = 110.05(2) degrees, and Z = 2. [(L1O)MoO(OPh)Cl].2CH(2)Cl(2) (2.2CH(2)Cl(2)) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P(-)1 with cell dimensions a = 12.2740 (5) A, b = 13.0403 (5) A, c = 13.6141 (6) A, alpha = 65.799 (2) degrees, beta = 64.487 (2) degrees, gamma = 65.750 (2) degrees, and Z = 2. [(L3S)Mo(O)Cl(2)] (3) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna2(1), with cell dimensions a = 13.2213 (13) A, b = 8.817 (2) A, c = 15.649 (4) A, and Z = 4. The implications of these results on the function of mononuclear molybdoenzymes such as sulfite oxidase, and the DMSO reductase, are discussed.
The imidazolate-bridged homodinuclear Cu(II)-Cu(II) complex, [(CuimCu)L]ClO(4).0.5H(2)O (1), and heterodinuclear Cu(II)-Zn(II) complex, [(CuimZnL(-)(2H))(CuimZnL(-)(H))](ClO(4))(3) (2), of a single macrocyclic ligand with two hydroxyethyl pendants, L (L = 3,6,9,16,19,22-hexaaza-6,19-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)tricyclo[22,2,2,2(11,14)]triaconta-1,11,13,24,27,29-hexaene), have been synthesized as possible models for copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu(2),Zn(2)-SOD). Their crystal structures analyzed by X-ray diffraction methods have shown that the structures of the two complexes are markedly different. Complex 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, containing an imidazolate-bridged dicopper(II) [Cu-im-Cu](3+) core, in which the two copper(II) ions are pentacoordinated by virtue of an N4O environment with a Cu.Cu distance of 5.999(2) A, adopting the geometry of distorted trigonal bipyramid and tetragonal pyramid, respectively. Complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic system, containing two similar Cu-im-Zn cores in the asymmetric unit, in which both the Cu(II) and Zn(II) ions are pentacoordinated in a distorted trigonal bipyramid geometry, with the Cu.Zn distance of 5.950(1)/5.939(1) A, respectively. Interestingly, the macrocyclic ligand with two arms possesses a chairlike (anti) conformation in complex 1, but a boatlike (syn) conformation in complex 2. Magnetic measurements and ESR spectroscopy of complex 1 have revealed the presence of an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between the two Cu(II) ions. The ESR spectrum of the Cu(II)-Zn(II) heterodinuclear complex 2 displayed a typical signal for mononuclear trigonal bipyramidal Cu(II) complexes. From pH-dependent ESR and electronic spectroscopic studies, the imidazolate bridges in the two complexes have been found to be stable over broad pH ranges. The cyclic voltammograms of the two complexes have been investigated. Both of the two complexes can catalyze the dismutation of superoxide and show rather high activity.
A simple modality is suggested to include, in the framework of a modified Poisson-Boltzmann approach, specific ion effects via the change in the ion hydration between the bulk and the vicinity of the surface. This approach can account for both the depletion of the interfacial region of structure-making ions as well as for the accumulation of structure-breaking ions near the interface. Expressions for the change in interfacial tension as a function of electrolyte concentrations are derived. On the basis of this theory, one explains the dependence of the surface potential on pH and electrolyte concentration, the existence of a minimum in the surface tension at low electrolyte concentrations and the linear dependence, with a positive or sometimes negative slope, of the surface tension on the electrolyte concentration at sufficiently high ionic strengths.
