Gold （III） Complexes with Thiolactate and bis-（1,4-Sodiumthiolactate） Butane Ligands

The new ligand bis-（1,4-sodium thiolactate） butane （L）-O2CCH3S-（CH2）4SCHCH3CO2- has been prepared from the reaction of disodium salt of thiolactic acid and 1,4-dichlorobutane, while the disodium thiolactate was prepared instanteously through the reaction of thiolactic acid with NaOH. Mono and dinuclear complexes were obtained by direct reaction of the above ligands with H[AuCI4] in 1 ： 1, 2：1, 1：2, 2：2 and 3：1 ligands to metal molar ratio. The prepared complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, spectral studies FTIR （Fourier transform Infrared） and UV-Vis, magnetic measurement, conductivity measurement and IHNMR for the ligand （L） and some of the complexes. The conductance data indicate that the complexes of the formulas Na[Au（SCH3CHCOO）2], Na[Au（SCH3CHCOO）（OOCCHCH3SH）2] and [Au（L）]Cl are 1：1 electrolyte. Electronic spectra and magnetic moment values indicate the presence of square planner geometry around Au（III） ions.

Synthesis, Reactions and Characterization of 1,1’-(1,4-Phenylenebis(3-amino-6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-4,5-diyl))bis(ethan-1-one)

Reaction of 4,4’-(1,4-phenylene)bis(5-acetyl-6-methyl-2-thioxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile) (1) with methyl iodide afforded the 4,4’-(1,4-phenylene)bis(5-acetyl-6-methyl-2-(methylthio)nicotinonitrile) (2). The reaction of 2 with hydrazine hydrate followed by diazotization reaction af-forded the 1,1’-(1,4-phenylenebis(3-amino-6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-4,5-diyl))bis(e-than-1-one) (3) and 1,1’-(1,4-phenylenebis(3-(chlorodiazenyl)-6-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]-pyridine-4,5-diyl))bis(ethan-1-one) (4) respectively. On the other hand, reaction of 4 with malononitrile, 2-cyanoethanethioamide, ethyl acetoacetate, acetyl acetone, ethyl benzoylacetate, diethylmalonate, ethyl cyanoacetate and phenacylbromide aiming to build up pyrazolotriazine or pyrazole ring on the ring system of 4. Structures of all newly synthesized heterocyclic compounds in the present study were confirmed by considering the data of IR, 1H NMR, mass spectra as well as that of elemental analyses.

Synthesis and characterization of bis-[1]rotaxanes via salen-bridged bis-pillar[5]arenes

The series of salen-bridged bis-pillar[1]arenes were conveniently prepared by condensation reaction of5,5'-methylenebis(2-hydroxybenzalde hyde)or 5,5'-(propane-2,2-diyl)bis(2-hydroxybenzaldehyde)with mono-amido-functionalized pillar[5]arenes containing different terminal aminoalkyl groups in refluxing ethanol.The^1H NMR and 2D-NOESY spectra indicated that the salen-bridged bis-pillar[5]arenes with longer allcylene linker(n=3,4,6)formed the fascinating bis-[1]rotaxanes,while the salenbridged bis-pillar[5]arenes with short hydrazine and ethylenediamino linker(n=0,2)predominately existed in free form.The single crystal structure of the bis-pillar[5]are ne ambiguously indicated that two propylenediamino linker inserted in to two cavities of pillar[5]arene to form a novel bis-[1]rotaxanes.

A New Mn(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer: Synthesis, Structure and Magnetic Property

A new 2D compound,{[Mn6 L3(H2O)8]·0.69(C3 H7 NO)·3.31H2O}n(1,H4 L=1,1’-(1,4-phenylenebis(methylene))bis-(1H-pyrazole-3,5-dicarboxylic acid)),was synthesized and characterized by IR,TGA and X-ray single-crystal/powder diffraction.Compound 1 crystallizes in monoclinic system,space group C2/c with a=26.468(5),b=19.750(4),c=13.660(3)A,β=92.73(3)°,V=7132(2)A^3,Z=4,Mr=1824.12,Dc=1.699 g/cm3,F(000)=3705,R=0.042 and w R=0.117 for 8965 observed reflections(I>2σ(I)).In compound 1,all of the Mn(II)atoms are six-coordinated and take the octahedral geometry of[MnNO5].The 2D compound consists of secondary building unit[Mn3(μ2-O)(R-COO)3](SBU),in which two of the Mn^2+ions exhibit the same coordinated environments while another Mn^2+ion has a different one.The SBUs further connect with each other to form a 1 D inorganic chain which is connected with L^4-ligands to construct a 2D layer.Finally,strong O–H···O hydrogen bonds among the rich carboxyl molecules and O atoms from free DMF and guest water molecules connect the two-dimensional coordination network into a three-dimensional framework.Variable temperature magnetic measurements indicate the antiferromagnetic behavior in the Mn3 core in compound 1.

Design and synthesis of self-included pillar[5]arene-based bis-[1]rotaxanes

Two strategies for the design of new pillar[5]arene-based mechanically self-interlocked molecules (MSMs) are reported here. The first strategy is based on the construction of an intermediate pseudo[1]rotaxane followed by the desired bis-[l]rotaxane. The other one is based on the construction of the desired bis-[1]rotaxane directly via a condensation reaction through host-guest interactions between a mono-functionalized pillar[5]arene and the axle. The newly synthesized bis-[1]rotaxane BR was characterized by ~1H NMR, ^(13)C NMR, 2D NMRs (~1H-^(13)C HSQC,~1H-~1H COSY and NOESY) and LC-ESI-MS,which indicated compound BR displayed an self-interlocked structure in CDCl_3. Surprisingly, the results of SEM, TEM and DLS showed that the compound BR could assemble into spherical nanoparticles in MeOH.
