The absorption and fluorescence spectra of bibenzimidazole (BBI), N, N′-dimethylbibenzimidazole (MBBI), and methylene, 2,2′-bibenzimidazole (MtBBI) have been recorded in six solvents of different characteristics and at various acid concentrations. This study indicates the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding in BBI in both S0 and S1 states, leading to large conjugation of two benzimidazole (BI) rings. The geometry of BBI is the same in the S0 and S1 states. The spectral characteristics of BBI are insensitive to the solvents. The interaction of solvent molecule attached to the nitrogen lone pair and methyl group rotates the benzimidazolyl ring in MBBI around the single bond. This leads to a blue shift in the long wavelength absorption band maximum and a decrease in the intensity of this band. The two MBI rings are coplanar in the S1 state. Presence of methylene group inhibits the direct interaction between the BI groups and these rings behave almost independently, i.e., the spectral characteristics of this molecule nearly resemble those of benzimidazole. Keywords: absorption spectrum, fluorescence spectrum, pKa, bibenzimidazoles, excited state pKa.

13C chemical shifts and 13C–31P couplings are reported for 11 cyclic phosphoramidates of ring sizes from four to nine. Vicinal couplings are compared with those of carbocyclic analogs and provide insight regarding the degree of nitrogen lone pair derealization into the N—P bond. For six-membered and larger rings, there appears to be nearly complete lone pair delocalization, i.e., a trigonal planar nitrogen atom. In azetidine derivatives the nitrogen lone pair remains localized, giving rise to a highly puckered ring conformation. Pyrrolidine derivatives are viewed as having a nitrogen with a partially delocalized electron pair.

Poly(4-vinylpyridine-co-divinylbenzene)-Co2+ was characterized using infrared spectroscopy (IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TG-DTA), N2-physisorption and polarography. Thermal analysis suggests sufficient thermal stability of the polymer support, under reaction conditions. From polarography measurements, the Co2+ content on polymer-supported catalysts is estimated and it was proved that no significant leaching occurred during the activity tests. At the molecular level, FTIR of P4VP-DVB-Co2+ reveals that the pyridine nitrogen lone pair coordinates to the metal center in the polymeric complex. The obtained P4VP-DVB-Co2+ catalysts performed interesting catalytic activity in reaction of the cyclohexane oxidation with air, indicating that increasing Co2+ content lowers the initiation temperature and raises the decomposition of cyclohexylhydroperoxide.

A CSD analysis and DFT study reveal that the nitrogen lone-pair in [N(PPh3)2]+ is partially intact and involved in intramolecular hydrogen bonding.


Data on calculated orbital energies and experimentally measured ionization potentials of carbocyclic and heterocyclic aromatic compounds are compared and contrasted. The ordering or orbital energies and ionization potentials do not always seem to parallel one another, probably owing to either electron correlation effects, or to deviations from Koopman’s theorem. The effects on photoelectron spectra of using different light sources and analysers are discussed in relation to their bearing on the orbital orderings of aromatic compounds. The high resolution He 584 A. photoelectron spectrum of pyridine is shown to be open to two interpretations regarding the ordering of the ionization potentials of the π orbitals and the ‘nitrogen lone pair’ (n). One of the interpretations involves the three lowest pyridine ionization potentials being π (9.2 eV), π L (9.5 eV) and n (10.5 eV) whilst the other has the first three ionization potentials being the order π , n, π . The photoelectron spectra of substituted pyridines and diazines are discussed in the light of the two possible explanations for the pyridine spectrum.

The centrosymmetric dinuclear complex bis(μ-3-carboxy-6-methylpyridine-2-carboxylato)-κ3N,O2:O2;κ3O2:N,O2-bis[(2,2′-bipyridine-κ2N,N′)(nitrato-κO)cadmium] methanol monosolvate, [Cd2(C8H6NO4)2(NO3)2(C10H8N2)2]·CH3OH, was isolated as colourless crystals from the reaction of Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, 6-methylpyridine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid (mepydcH2) and 2,2′-bipyridine in methanol. The asymmetric unit consists of a CdIIcation bound to a μ-κ3N,O2:O2-mepydcH−anion, anN,N′-bidentate 2,2′-bipyridine group and anO-monodentate nitrate anion, and is completed with a methanol solvent molecule at half-occupancy. The Cd complex unit is linked to its centrosymmetric image through a bridging mepydcH−carboxylate O atom to complete the dinuclear complex molecule. Despite a significant variation in the coordination angles, indicating a considerable departure from octahedral coordination geometry about the CdIIatom, the Cd—O and Cd—N distances in this complex are surprisingly similar. The crystal structure consists of O—H...O hydrogen-bonded chains parallel toa, further bound by C—H...O contacts alongbto form planar two-dimensional arrays parallel to (001). The juxtaposed planes form interstitial columnar voids that are filled by the methanol solvent molecules. These in turn interact with the complex molecules to further stabilize the structure. A search in the literature showed that complexes with the mepydcH−ligand are rare and complexes reported previously with this ligand do not adopt the μ-κ3coordination mode found in the title compound.

The structure of the polymeric title compound, {[Zn2(C20H11NO4)2(C3H7NO)2(CH3OH)]·C3H7NO}n, comprises carbazolylisophthalate moieties connecting dimetallic tetracarboxylate zinc secondary building units (SBUs) parallel to [100] and [010], leading to a layer-like arrangement parallel to (001). Each SBU consists of two Zn atoms in slightly distorted tetrahedral and octahedral coordination environments [Zn...Zn = 3.5953 (6) Å]. Three carboxylate groups bridge the two Zn atoms in a μ2-O:O′ mode, whereas the fourth coordinates through a single carboxylate O atom (μ1-O). The O atoms of two dimethylformamide (DMF) and one methanol molecule complete the Zn coordination spheres. The methanol ligand interacts with the noncoordinating DMF moleculeviaan O—H...O hydrogen bond of medium strength. Carbazoles between the layers interdigitate through weak C—H....π interactions to form a laminar solid stacked along [010]. Two kinds of C—H...π interactions are present, both with a distance of 2.64 Å, between the H atoms and the centroids, and a third C—H...π interaction, where the aromatic H atom is located above the carbazole N-atom lone pair (H...N = 2.89 Å). Several C—H...O interactions occur between the coordinating DMF molecule, the DMF solvent molecule, and ligating carboxylate O atoms.
