Molecular cationic metal complexes

Molecular Conductors Based on Cationic Metal Complexes. 40... 

Compared with the conducting anion radical salts of metal complexes, the number of molecular conductors based on cationic metal complexes is still limited. Donor type complexes M(dddt)2 (M = Ni, Pd, Pt Fig. 1) are the most studied system. The M(dddt)2 molecule is a metal complex analogue of the organic donor BEDTTTF. Formally, the central C=C bond of BEDT-TTF is substituted by a metal ion. The HOMO and LUMO of the M(dddt)2 molecule are very similar in orbital character to those of the M(dmit)2 molecule. In addition, the HOMO of the M(dddt)2 molecule is also very similar to that of BEDT-TTF. More than ten cation radical salts of M(dddt)2 with a cation (monovalent) anion ratio of 2 1 or 3 2 are reported [7]. A few of them exhibit metallic behavior down to low temperatures. The HOMO-LUMO band inversion can also occur in the donor system depending on the degree of dimerization. In contrast to the acceptor system, however, the HOMO-LUMO band inversion in the donor system leads a LUMO band with the one-dimensional character to the conduction band. 

Some attempts have been made to use a cationic metal complex intercalate as a catalyst these efforts are briefly reviewed in an account of the catalyst type (b) in Fig. 1. The results advocate the possibility of the immobilization of catalyst solution in the interlayer spaces. The catalytic activity of Cu -TSM or Cu Pd -TSM swelled with water or an organic solvent for the reaction involving molecular oxygen is introduced in the following section. 

The protonated form of poly(vinyl amine) (PVAm—HCl) has two advantages over many cationic polymers high cationic charge densities are possible and the pendent primary amines have high reactivity. It has been appHed in water treatment, paper making, and textiles (qv). The protonated forms modified with low molecular weight aldehydes are usehil as fines and filler retention agents and are in use with recycled fibers. As with all new products, unexpected appHcations, such as in clear antiperspirants, have been found. It is usehil in many metal complexation appHcations (49).

Abstract Metal complexes including the dmit2- (1,3-dithio-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato) ligand are the only class of metal bis-dithiolenes to give rise to superconductive molecular materials. This chapter first focuses on the description of these superconductive phases. Further sections describe the association of M(dmit)2 moieties with three types of magnetic molecules, i.e., metalloceniums, radical cations, and spin crossover complexes. 

Hydrolysis or complexation The following very schematic reactions describe the most common representation of a solution process, starting from a stable stock solution of some metal complexes to which reagents are added. The first step consists in the substitution or addition of molecular groups in the coordination sphere of a cation M. Most common reactions are (9) ...
