Abstract:
Three organoplatinum(II) complexes bearing natural aryl-olefin and quinoline derivatives, namely, [4-meth-oxy-5-(2-meth-oxy-2-oxoeth-oxy)-2-(prop-2-en-1-yl)phen-yl](quinolin-8-olato)platinum(II), [Pt(C13H15O4)(C9H6NO)], (I), [4-meth-oxy-5-(2-oxo-2-propoxyeth-oxy)-2-(prop-2-en-1-yl)phen-yl](quinoline-2-carboxy-l-ato)platinum(II), [Pt(C15H19O4)(C10H6NO2)], (II), and chlorido-[4-meth-oxy-5-(2-oxo-2-propoxyeth-oxy)-2-(prop-2-en-1-yl)phen-yl](quinoline)-plat-inum(II), [Pt(C15H19O4)Cl(C9H7N)], (III), were synthesized and structurally characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the cyclo-platinated aryl-olefin coordinates with PtII via the carbon atom of the phenyl ring and the C=Colefinic group. The deprotonated 8-hy-droxy-quinoline (C9H6NO) and quinoline-2-carb-oxy-lic acid (C10H6NO2) coordinate with the PtII atom via the N and O atoms in complexes (I) and (II) while the quinoline (C9H7N) coordinates via the N atom in (III). Moreover, the coordinating N atom in complexes (I)-(III) is in the cis position compared to the C=Colefinic group. The crystal packing is characterized by C-H⋯π, C-H⋯O [for (II) and (III)], C-H⋯Cl [for (III) and π-π [for (I)] inter-actions.

02:52Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...

02:46Crystal 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,...

02:58Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
