Two new dithiolene ligand precursors, containing fused TTF and alkyl thiophenic moieties 3,3'-{[2-(5-(tert-butyl)thieno[2,3-d][1,3]dithiol-2-ylidene)-1,3-dithiole-4,5-diyl]bis[sulfanediyl]}dipropanenitrile (α-tbtdt, 1), and 3,3'-{[2-(5-methylthieno[2,3-d][1,3]dithiol-2-ylidene)-1,3-dithiole-4,5-diyl]bis[sulfanediyl]}dipropanenitrile (α-mtdt, 2), were synthesized and characterized. The electrochemical properties of these electronic donors were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) in dichloromethane. Both compounds show two quasi-reversible oxidation processes, versus Ag/AgCl, typical of TTF donors at E 1 1/2 = 279 V and E 2 1/2 = 680 V for 1 and E 1 1/2 = 304 V and E 2 1/2 = 716 V in the case of 2. The single-crystal X-ray structure of 1 and of a charge transfer salt of 2, (α-mtdt)[Au(mnt)2] (3), are reported.

Isocyanoazulenes (CNAz) constitute a relatively new class of isocyanoarenes that offers rich structural and electronic diversification of the organic isocyanide ligand platform. This article considers a series of 2-isocyano-1,3-X2-azulene ligands (X = H, Me, CO2Et, Br, and CN) and the corresponding zero-valent complexes thereof, [(OC)5Cr(2-isocyano-1,3-X2-azulene)]. Air- and thermally stable, X-ray structurally characterized 2-isocyano-1,3-dimethylazulene may be viewed as a non-benzenoid aromatic congener of 2,6-dimethyphenyl isocyanide (2,6-xylyl isocyanide), a longtime “workhorse” aryl isocyanide ligand in coordination chemistry. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic {Cr–CNAz bond distances}, cyclic voltametric {E1/2(Cr0/1+)}, 13C NMR {δ(13CN), δ(13CO)}, UV-vis {dπ(Cr) → pπ*(CNAz) Metal-to-Ligand Charge Transfer}, and FTIR {νN≡C, νC≡O, kC≡O} analyses of the [(OC)5Cr(2-isocyano-1,3-X2-azulene)] complexes provided a multifaceted, quantitative assessment of the π-acceptor/σ-donor characteristics of the above five 2-isocyanoazulenes. In particular, the following inverse linear relationships were documented: δ(13COtrans) vs. δ(13CN), δ(13COcis) vs. δ(13CN), and δ(13COtrans) vs. kC≡O,trans force constant. Remarkably, the net electron withdrawing capability of the 2-isocyano-1,3-dicyanoazulene ligand rivals those of perfluorinated isocyanides CNC6F5 and CNC2F3.

AbstractQuasi-one dimensional (1D) conductors of the TTF-TCNQ family of charge transfer salts exhibit a Peierls transition which stabilizes a periodic lattice distortion (PLD), accompanied by a charge density wave (CDW) modulation, with an incommensurate 2

The electroreduction of Zn2+ was studied in propylene carbonate (PC), acetonitrile (ACN), and hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) on mercury at various concentrations of tetraethylammonium perchlorate as a supporting electrolyte using dc polarography, cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and ac polarography. It was found that in PC and ACN the electroreduction process proceeds in one step. In HMPA, however, the electroreduction proceeds through a CEE mechanism in which a chemical reaction is followed by a charge transfer in two steps. The heterogeneous rate constants, corrected for the double layer effects, decrease with increase in the solvent donor number. The electroreduction process proceeds through the cation transfer mechanism.

Following the suggestion made earlier, on the basis of solution spectroscopy, that a number of eriostyl/nitrobenzoate compounds form charge-transfer self-complexes, a number of these have been investigated structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods in order to ascertain the presence or otherwise of such interactions in the solid state. The substances thus studied were eriostyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (1), eriostyl p-nitrobenzoate (2), tetrahydroeriostyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (3), and eriostemyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (4);* structure determinations in all cases, although displaying the presence of strong charge-transfer interactions from the two moieties of each molecule, show that the interactions in the solid state are intermolecular in nature.

A convenient synthesis of 1,2-dicyanoferrocene (3) was developed by using 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene as a dehydrating agent for the treatment of 1,2-ferrocenedicarbaldehyde dioxime (2) to give 3 in yields exceeding 80%. Compounds 2 and 3 have been characterized by IR and NMR (1H, 13C{1H}) spectroscopy and by electrochemistry (cyclic voltammetry and square-wave voltammetry). Furthermore, the molecular structures of 2 and 3 in the solid state have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallographic studies.

Bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonate)cobalt(II), Co(hfac)2, reacted with the nitronyl nitroxide radical 2-(4-methylphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide, NITPhMe, to yield an octahedral adduct of formula Co(hfac)2(NITPhMe)2. The X-ray crystal structure shows that it crystallizes in the space group P1, with a = 9.837(3), b = 11.618(3), c = 20.502(4) Å, α = 81.22(2), β = 87.93(2), γ = 72.24(3)º, V = 2205(1) Å3, Z = 2. The mechanism of ferromagnetic exchange between cobalt(II) and the radical can be qualitatively understood in terms of a charge-transfer interaction (J being 25.7 cm-1, the Hamiltonian is written in the form H = -2J(SRad1·SCo + SCo·SRad2)).Key words: crystal structure, cobalt(II) complex, nitronyl nitroxide, magnetic property.
