Rings, chelate

Unfortunately, addition of copper(II)nitrate to a solution of 4.42 in water did not result in the formation of a significant amount of complex, judging from the unchanged UV-vis absorption spectrum. Also after addition of Yb(OTf)3 or Eu(N03)3 no indications for coordination were observed. Apparently, formation of a six-membered chelate ring containing an amine and a ketone functionality is not feasible for these metal ions. Note that 4.13 features a similar arrangement and in aqueous solutions, likewise, does not coordinate significantly to all the Lewis acids that have been... 

Particularly alkyl halides which have a perfluoroalkyl group at the /3-position undergo smooth carbonylation. Probably the coordination of fluorine to form a five-membered chelate ring accelerates the reaction. Double carbonylation to give the a-keto amide 915 is possible in Et NH with the fluorine-bearing alkyl iodide 914[769,770]. The ester 917 is obtained by the carbonylation of the /3-perfluoroalkyl iodide 916 in ethanol. 

EthylenediaminetetraaceticAcid. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTAH has six potential donor groups two nitrogen atoms and four carboxylate groups. If EDTA 4— acts as a hexadentate ligand to a metal, the resulting complex contains five five-membered chelate rings and has a charge that is four less than that of the metal ion. 

Most mordant dyes are monoazo stmctures. The most important feature of this class of dyes is excellent fastness to light and washing. Mordant dyes are available ia aU shades of the spectmm with the exceptioa of bright violets, blues, and greens. To be useful, the metal complexes must be stable, ie, must not demetallize when subjected to dyebath conditions and aU aftertreatment processes, especially repeated washings. Chromium forms stable chelate rings with mordant dyes which are not affected by treatment with either weak acid or alkaU (see Coordination compounds). 

Experimental evidence shows overwhelmingly that, providing the donor atoms of L and L-L are the same element and that the chelate ring... 

Chelated oxo structures were assigned to 5-hydroxy-4-acyl-l,3-oxazoles on the basis of their NMR spectra, the preference being given to the con-former 249a with a six-membered chelate ring (Scheme 86) (75BSB845). 

Whereas vicinal hydroxy, mercapto, and hydroselenoaldimines of azoles strongly prefer the aminomethylene tautomeric form (Section II,E,2), their metal chelates 380 are characterized by.pronounced equalization of bond lengths within the chelate ring, which makes their structures similar to those expected for the aldimine tautomeric type. 

Compound [PtCl( Bu2PCMe2CH2)2l reacts with pyrazole or 3,5-dimethyl-pyrazole in the presence of sodium hydroxide to form 242 (R = H, Me) [84ICA (82)L9]. The chelate ring is not planar in this case, and the trans strucmre of the pyrazolate derivative was demonstrated. Tlie four-coordinated platinum atoms are characterized by a distorted square-planar coordination. 

The quantum yield of the initiation process (<, ) is quite low 8 x 10, indicating the great stability of the chelate ring toward photolysis. However, the quantum yield of photodecomposition 4>d) under similar condition is 2 X 10, which is higher than It is clear, therefore, that not every molecule of Mn(acac)3 that is decomposed initiates polymerization apparently, ex-... 

Ring size. Five- or six-membered conjugated chelate rings are most stable since these have minimum straia The functional groups of the ligand must be so situated that they permit the formation of a stable ring. 

Reaction of the diphosphines Ph2P(CH2) PPh2 (n = 1-3) with MCl2(PhCN)2 affords 1 1 m-complexes (Figure 3.46) [102]. (Note the use of the labile PhCN adducts if the MCl salts are used, Magnus type compounds M(P-P)2+MCl4- are formed.) Similar complexes are formed with other halides for the thiocyanates see section 3.8.6. The structures of the palladium complexes have been determined (Table 3.10) with square coordination only achieved for n = 3 with the formation of a six-membered metal-chelate ring. 

It is believed [1135,1136] that the decomposition of metal complexes of salicyaldoxime and related ligands is not initiated by scission of the coordination bond M—L, but by cleavage of another bond (L—L) in the chelate ring which has been weakened on M—L bond formation. Decomposition temperatures and values of E, measured by several non-isothermal methods were obtained for the compounds M(L—L)2 where M = Cu(II), Ni(II) or Co(II) and (L—L) = salicylaldoxime. There was parallel behaviour between the thermal stability of the solid and of the complex in solution, i.e. Co < Ni < Cu. A similar parallel did not occur when (L—L) = 2-indolecarboxylic acid, and reasons for the difference are discussed...
