scorpionates
Improved syntheses and electronic characterization of carboxamide-substituted tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands are reported. Their TlI salts and the CuI carbonyl complexes have been prepared and are compared with alkyl-substituted tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands.
scorpionates
A low-resolution X-ray molecular study shows that the title compound displays scorpionate character, and resolves apparent ambiguities between solution and solid-state NMR spectroscopies.
scorpionates
This new complex using the classic TpMe2 scorpionate, (TpMe2)Cu(S2CNEt2), is relevant to blue copper protein models and to Cu extraction from waste treatment and mine-tailing leachate. The IR and UV-Vis spectra are consistent with the crystal structure.
metal-organic compounds
The chiral stereochemistry and the mer-P and cis-N coordination of the chloridobis[2-(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine-2P,N](triphenylphosphane-P)ruthenium(II) cation, [RuCl(PPh3){Ph2P(CH2)2NH2-2P,N}2]+, is unique in ruthenium-aminophosphane chemistry.
