Construction of Hetero-Four-Layered Tripalladium(II) Cyclophanes by Transannular π⋅⋅⋅π Interactions
Abstract:
A synthetic strategy for the generation of new molecular species utilizing a provision of nature is presented. Nano-dimensional (23(2)×21(1)×16(1) ų) hetero-four-layered trimetallacyclophanes were constructed by proof-of-concept experiments that utilize a suitable combination of π⋅⋅⋅π interactions between the central aromatic rings, tailor-made short/long spacer tridentate donors, and the combined helicity. The behavior of the unprecedented four-layered metallacyclophane system offers a landmark in the development of new molecular systems.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
