A series of nitrogen ligand (L)/copper complexes of the type [(CuL)-L-I](+), [(CuL)-L-II(X)](+) and [(CuL2)-L- I](+) (X = Cl-, BF4-, acac(-), CH3COO- and SO3CF3-) was studied in the gas phase by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The following ligands (L) were employed: 1,12-diazaperylene (dap), 1,1'-bisiso-quinoline (bis), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,11-disubstituted 1,12-diazaperylenes (dap), 3,3'- disubstituted 1,1'-bisisoquinoline (bis), 5,8-dimethoxy-substituted diazaperylene (meodap), 6,6'-dimethoxy- substituted bisisoquinoline (meobis) and 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dmphen). Collision-induced decomposition measurements were applied to evaluate the relative stabilities of the different copper complexes. The influence of the spatial arrangement of the ligands, of the type of substituents and of the counter ion of the copper salts employed for the complexation was examined. Correlations were found between the binding constants of the [ML2](+) complexes in solution and the relative stabilities of the analogous complexes in the gas phase. Furthermore, complexation with the ligands 2,11-dialkylated 1,12-diazaperylenes [alkyl = ethyl (dedap) and isopropyl (dipdap)] was studied in the solvents CH3OH and CH3CN.
Fluoroionophores of fluorophore-spacer-receptor format were prepared for detection of PdCl2 by fluorescence enhancement. The fluorophore probes 1-13 consist of a fluorophore group, in alkyl spacer and a dithiomaleonitrile PdCl2 receptor. First, varying the length of the alkylene spacer (compounds 1-3) revealed, dominant through-space pathway for oxidative photoinduced electron transfer (PET) in CH2-bridged dithiomaleonitrile fluoroionophores. Second. fluorescent probes 4-9 containing two anthracene or pyrene fragments connected through CH2 bridges to the dithiomaleonitrile unit were synthesized. Modulation of the oxidation potential (E-Ox) through electron-withdrawing or -donating groups on the anthracene moiety regulates file thermodynamic driving force for oxidative PET (Delta G(PET)) in bis(anthrylmethylthio)maleonitriles and therefore the fluorescence quantum yields (Phi(f)), too. The new concept was confirmed and transferred to pyrenyl ligands, and fluorescence enhancements (FE) greater than 3.2 in the presence of PdCl2 were achieved by 7 and 8 (FE=5.4 and 5.2). Finally, for comparison, monofluorophore ligands 10-13 were synthesized.
Narrow channels with polar walls are the structural and functional features responsible for the high capacity of a zinc-organic framework based on an imidazolate-amide-imidate ligand for the uptake of H2 and CO2 (see structure: orange Zn, blue N, red O, dark gray C, light gray H). The rigid and stable chelating ligand was synthesized in situ by partial hydrolysis of a dicyanoimidazole compound.
2,11-Dialkylated 1,12-diazaperylenes (alkyl = Me, Et, iPr) dmedap, detdap and dipdap have been synthesized by reductive cyclization of 3,3-dialkylated 1,1-biisoquinolines 3a-c, resulting in the first copper(I) complexes of a large- surface ligand. The new copper(I) complexes show low-energy MLCT absorptions unprecedented for bis(-diimin)copper(I) complexes. The solid structures of the complexes[Cu(dipdap)2]BF4·CH2Cl2·1.5H2O, [Cu(dipdap)2]OTf·CH2Cl2, [Cu(dipdap)2]I·C2H4Cl2·THF·2H2O, [Cu(dmedap)2]OTf and [Cu(dipdap)2]AQSO3·H2O (AQSO3 = sodium 9,10-dihydro-9,10-dioxo-2- anthracenesulfonate) are reported. In [Cu(dipdap)2]BF4·CH2Cl2·1.5H2O, each copper(I) complex cation interacts with two others by - stacking interactions forming a novel supramolecular column structural motif running along the crystallographic c axis. In the crystalline compound [Cu(dipdap)2]AQSO3·H2O, aggregation between two complex cations and two additional anions by - stacking interactions is observed, leading to a tetrameric assembly. Furthermore, the three complex compounds [Cu(L)2]BF4 (L = dmedap, detdap, dipdap) were tested for sensory applications in aqueous buffer solutions in electrochemical studies of the complex immobilized on glassy carbon electrodes.

1H, 13C, and 15N NMR study of the solution structure of metabridged bis(benzo-15-crown-5-ether)s
(1995)
The macrocyclic ring interconversion of four maleonitrile mixed oxadithia crown ethers of variable ring size, mn-12-S2O2, mn-15-S2O3, mn-18-S2O4 and fn-12-S2O2, were studied by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and by molecular modelling. The barriers to ring interconversion were estimated using variable temperature NMR spectroscopy and from the calculated activation energies, together with the spin-lattice relaxation times of the CH2 carbon atoms, conclusions were drawn regarding the intramolecular flexibility of the crown ethers in both the free state as well as the complexed state incorporating either AgI, BiIII, SbIII, PdII or PtII metal cations. Furthermore, both the stoichiometry of the complexes and the coordination sites of the crown ethers to the various cations were also clearly implicated. Molecular modelling was also utilised to ascertain the preferred conformers of the four compounds and their corresponding complexes, the results of which corroborated the experimental NMR results to a high degree.
Especially sulphur containing compounds are suitable for the separation of noble metals[ , ]. 1,2-Dithioethenes are weak chelate-forming ligands [ ]and in the case of bis(methylthio)maleonitrile[ ] the donor power of both of the sulphur atoms is further decreased by the electron withdrawing effect of the cyanogroups. Crowned dithiomaleonitrile are macrocyclic chelate ligands which extract Pd(II) at sufficient rate in a very good yields. The reason for that extraction behaviour is the fact that Pd(II) favours the square planar coordination geometry in opposite to the 3d- elements. The synthesis of the immobilized ligands proceeds from the 2-allyloxy-1,2-propanediol forming the dicarbon acid which is reduced to the diole. With the help of thionylchloride the dichloro compound is synthesized forming together with a dithiolate (1,2-disodium-1,2-dicyanethene-1,2-dithiolate, 1,2-disodium-4-methylbenzene-1,2-dithiolate [ ]) at high dilution conditions the macrocycle. Than the allysubstituted crown ether is sillylated and the resulting alkoxysilane is immobilised onto activated silca gel. The substituent forms in the same time a spacer should be modified in the future. By immobilisation at an inactive matrix the selectivity of the ligand should be applied for the accumulation of palladium from diluted solutions. The extraction was performed from nitric acid solution with a yield of 93% into a ligand solution (chloroform, kerosine). The extraction equilibrium is reached after 10 min. By atomic absorption spectroscopy the metal concentration in the aqueous phase was determined to calculate the extraction rate. By modification of the cavity of the macrocyclus the extraction rate increases from the acyclic compound through maleonitrile-dithio-21-crown-7, maleonitrile-dithio-15-crown-5 and maleonitrile-18-crown-6. The best results can be observed at the maleonitrile-dithio-12-crown-4. The rise of the function lg D= f(lg L) gives the composition of the extracted compounds as 1:1. The separation is unsatisfactory in the case of Ag(I), Hg(II), Pt(II), Tl (I) and the most 3d-elements. Also Ni(II) as a representative for the 3d-elements shows only separations coefficients of 1.43?103 . Summarizing, a very good separation of palladium from the examined elements can be specified. Additional to the extraction experiments, as well as the crystal structures and by UV spectroscopy the formation constants of selected chelates were determined. The observed order corresponds to that found by the extraction of palladium in the system water/chloroform. In the case of maleonitrile-dithio-15-crown-5 Ag(I) is endocyclic coordinated with all donor atoms of the macrocyclus. Already maleonitrile-dithio-18-crown-6 can include the silver cation into its greater cavity. In these cases a 1:1 complex is formed. A 1:2 sandwich structure was noticed only in the case of the smaller ligand maleonitrile- dithio-12-crown-4. Obviously, the formation of that structure is not favoured in the system water/chloroform from which can be explained the unfavourable extraction results.

Crowned dithiomaleonitrile are macrocyclic chelate ligands which extract Pd(II) at sufficient rate in a very good yields. The synthesis of the immobilised ligands proceeds from the 2-allyloxy-1,2-propanediol forming the dicar-bon acid which is reduced to the diole. With the help of thionylchloride the dichloro compound is synthe-sized forming the macrocycle together with a dithiolate (1,2-disodium-1,2-dicyanethene-1,2-dithiolate, 1,2-disodium-4-methylbenzene-1,2-dithiolate) at high dilution conditions. The allylsubstituted crown ether is sillylated and the resulting alkoxysilane is immobilised onto activated silica gel. The extraction results with crown ethers are compared with that achieved with the help of substituted ß- diketones and 4-acyl-5-pyrazolones. By modification of the cavity of the macrocyclus the extraction rate increases from the acyclic compound through maleonitrile-dithio-21-crown-7, maleonitrile-dithio-15-crown-5 and maleonitrile-18-crown-6. The best results can be observed at the maleonitrile-dithio-12-crown-4. The rise of the function log D= f(log L) gives the composition of the extracted compounds as 1:1.
