Binding Interactions in Copper, Silver and Gold π-Complexes.

ABSTRACT: The copper(I), silver(I), and gold(I) metals bind π-ligands by σ-bonding and π-back bonding interactions. These interactions were investigated using bidentate ancillary ligands with electron donating and withdrawing substituents. The π-ligands span from ethylene to larger terminal and internal alkenes and alkynes. Results of X-ray crystallography, NMR, and IR spectroscopy and gas phase experiments show that the binding energies increase in the order Ag

Gold(I) and Silver(I) π-Complexes with Unsaturated Hydrocarbons.

Project description:Gold π-complexes have been studied largely in the past 2 decades because of their role in gold-catalyzed reactions. We report an experimental and theoretical investigation of the interaction between a wide range of unsaturated hydrocarbons (alkanes, alkynes, alkadienes, and allenes) and triphenylphosphine-gold(I), triphenylphosphine-silver(I), and acetonitrile-silver(I) cations. The bond dissociation energies of these complexes were determined by mass spectrometry collision-induced dissociations and their structures were studied by density functional theory calculations and infrared photodissociation spectroscopy. The results show that with the same phosphine ligand, gold binds stronger to the π-ligands than silver and thereby activates the unsaturated bond more effectively. Ligand exchange of phosphine by acetonitrile at the silver complexes increases the binding energy as well as the activation of the π-ligands. We also show that the substitution of an unsaturated bond is more important than the bond type.

Exploring C-F···π Interactions: Synthesis, Characterization, and Surface Analysis of Copper β-Diketone Complexes.

Project description:Synthesis and characterization of two novel copper β-diketone complexes, where halogen bonds play a pivotal role in shaping their multifaceted structural landscape, have been done in the present study. This study employs X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and infrared (IR) spectroscopy to investigate two copper β-diketone complexes, [Cu(L1)2(ttfa)2]·2CH3OH (1) and [Cu(L1)(dfpb)2] (2), where Httfa is 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(thiophen-2-yl)butan-3,1-dione and Hdfpb is 4,4-difluoro-1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione. Complex 1 displays a halogen bond, which contributes to its uniqueness. The coordination sphere around the copper atoms was found to be octahedral for complex 1 and pyramid with a square base for complex 2. The study also extensively discusses the interactions present in these complexes. Hirshfeld surface analysis was employed to gain a more detailed understanding of these interactions, and the results showed that hydrogen-bond interactions contributed above 30% of the whole surface area in both complexes. Additionally, the halogen bond in complex 1 was found to contribute approximately 8% of the surface. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the structural properties and interactions of copper β-diketone complexes, which could have potential applications in various fields.

Isolable acetylene complexes of copper and silver.

Project description:Copper and silver play important roles in acetylene transformations but isolable molecules with acetylene bonded to Cu(i) and Ag(i) ions are scarce. This report describes the stabilization of π-acetylene complexes of such metal ions supported by fluorinated and non-fluorinated, pyrazole-based chelators. These Cu(i) and Ag(i) complexes were formed readily in solutions under an atmosphere of excess acetylene and the appropriate ligand supported metal precursor, and could be isolated as crystalline solids, enabling complete characterization using multiple tools including X-ray crystallography. Molecules that display κ2-or κ3-ligand coordination modes and trigonal planar or tetrahedral metal centers have been observed. Different trends in coordination shifts of the acetylenic carbon resonance were revealed by 13C NMR spectroscopy for the Cu(i) and Ag(i) complexes. The reduction in acetylene [italic small nu, Greek, macron] C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C due to metal ion coordination is relatively large for copper adducts. Computational tools were also used to quantitatively understand in detail the bonding situation in these species. It is found that the interaction between the transition metal fragment and the acetylene ligand is significantly stronger in the copper complexes, which is consistent with the experimental findings. The C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C distance of these copper and silver acetylene complexes resulting from routine X-ray models suffers due to incomplete deconvolution of thermal smearing and anisotropy of the electron density in acetylene, and is shorter than expected. A method to estimate the C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C distance of these metal complexes based on their experimental [italic small nu, Greek, macron] C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C is also presented.

Preferential binding of unsaturated hydrocarbons in aryl-bisimidazolium·cucurbit[8]uril complexes furbishes evidence for small-molecule π-π interactions.

Project description:Whilst cucurbit[n]urils (CBn) have been utilized in gas encapsulation, only the smaller CBn (n = 5 and 6) have utility given their small cavity size. In this work, we demonstrate that the large cavity of CB8 can be tailored for gaseous and volatile hydrocarbon encapsulation by restricting its internal cavity size with auxiliary aryl-bisimidazolium (Bis, aryl = phenyl, naphthyl, and biphenyl) guests. The binding constants for light hydrocarbons (C ≤ 4) are similar to those measured with CB6, while larger values are obtained with Bis·CB8 for larger guests. A clear propensity for higher affinities of alkenes relative to alkanes is observed, most pronounced with the largest delocalized naphthalene residue in the auxiliary Bis guest, which provides unique evidence for sizable small-molecule π-π interactions.

Cl-pi interactions in protein-ligand complexes.

Project description:During systematic analysis of nonbonded contacts in protein-ligand complexes derived from crystal structures in the Protein Data Bank, Cl-pi interactions have been found, not only in the well-documented serine proteases but also, to a lesser extent, in other proteins. From geometric analysis of such Cl-pi interactions in the crystal structures, two distinct geometries were found: the "edge-on" approach of a Cl atom to a ring atom or C-C bond and the "face-on" approach toward the ring centroid with an average interatomic distance of 3.6 A. High-level ab initio calculations using benzene-chlorohydrocarbon model systems elucidated that the calculated Cl-pi interaction energy is -2.01 kcal/mol, and the dispersion force is the major source of attraction. We also discussed the geometric flexibility in Cl-pi interactions and a relationship between the intensity of the pi density in an aromatic ring and the interaction position of the Cl atom.

Noncovalent CH-π and π-π Interactions in Phosphoramidite Palladium(II) Complexes with Strong Conformational Preference.

Project description:The weak noncovalent interactions and flexibility of ligands play a key role in enantioselective metal-catalyzed reactions. In transition metal complexes and their catalytic applications, the experimental assessment and the design of key interactions is as difficult as the prediction of the enantioselectivities, especially for flexible, privileged ligands such as chiral phosphoramidites. Therefore, the interligand interactions in cis-PdII L2 Cl2 phosphoramidite complexes were investigated by NMR spectroscopy and computations. We were able to induce a strong conformational preference by breaking the symmetry of the C2 -symmetric side chain of one of the ligands, and shift the equilibrium between hetero- and homocomplexes towards heterocomplexes because of interligand interactions in the cis-complexes. The modulation of aryl substituents was exploited, along with the solvent effect. The combined CH-π and π-π interactions reveal design patterns for binding and folding of chiral ligands and catalysts.

Aromatic Amino Acids-Guanidinium Complexes through Cation-π Interactions.

Project description:Continuing with our interest in the guanidinium group and the different interactions than can establish, we have carried out a theoretical study of the complexes formed by this cation and the aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, histidine, tryptophan and tyrosine) using DFT methods and PCM-water solvation. Both hydrogen bonds and cation-π interactions have been found upon complexation. These interactions have been characterized by means of the analysis of the molecular electron density using the Atoms-in-Molecules approach as well as the orbital interactions using the Natural Bond Orbital methodology. Finally, the effect that the cation-π and hydrogen bond interactions exert on the aromaticity of the corresponding amino acids has been evaluated by calculating the theoretical NICS values, finding that the aromatic character was not heavily modified upon complexation.

Copper II Complexes Based on Benzimidazole Ligands as a Novel Photoredox Catalysis for Free Radical Polymerization Embedded Gold and Silver Nanoparticles.

Project description:The copper II complex's novel benzimidazole Schiff base ligands were manufactured and gauged as a new photoredox catalyst/photoinitiator amalgamated with triethylamine (TEA) and iodonium salt (Iod) for the polymerization of ethylene glycol diacrylate while exposed to visible light by an LED Lamp at 405 nm with an intensity of 543 mW/cm2 at 28 °C. Gold and silver nanoparticles were obtained through the reactivity of the copper II complexes with amine/Iod salt. The size of NPs was around 1-30 nm. Lastly, the high performance of copper II complexes for photopolymerization containing nanoparticles is presented and examined. Ultimately, the photochemical mechanisms were observed using cyclic voltammetry. The preparation of the polymer nanocomposite nanoparticles in situ was photogenerated during the irradiation LED at 405 nm with an intensity of 543 mW/cm2 at 28 °C process. UV-Vis, FTIR, and TEM analyses were utilized for the determination of the generation of AuNPs and AgNPs which resided within the polymer matrix.

Reactions of a Polyhalide Ionic Liquid with Copper, Silver, and Gold.

Project description:The reactions of copper, silver, and gold with the imidazolium-based polyhalide ionic liquid (IL) [C6C1Im][Br2I] were investigated by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), weight-loss measurements, and gas-phase mass spectrometry. All three Group 11 metals are strongly corroded by the IL at moderate temperatures to give a very high content of dissolved CuI, AgI, and AuI species. The IL-metal solutions are stable against contact with water and air. The replacement of imidazolium with inorganic sodium cations decreased metal corrosion rates by orders of magnitude. Our results clearly indicate metal oxidation by iodide from dibromoiodide anions to form molecular iodine and anionic [Br-MI-Br]- (M=Cu, Ag, Au) complexes stabilized by imidazolium counterions. From experiments with a trihalide IL with imidazolium methylated at the 2-position, we ruled out the formation of imidazole-carbene as a cause of the observed corrosion. In contrast to Group 11 metals, molybdenum is inert against the trihalide IL, which is attributed to surface passivation.

PI by NMR: Probing CH-π Interactions in Protein-Ligand Complexes by NMR Spectroscopy.

Project description:While CH-π interactions with target proteins are crucial determinants for the affinity of arguably every drug molecule, no method exists to directly measure the strength of individual CH-π interactions in drug-protein complexes. Herein, we present a fast and reliable methodology called PI (π interactions) by NMR, which can differentiate the strength of protein-ligand CH-π interactions in solution. By combining selective amino-acid side-chain labeling with 1 H-13 C NMR, we are able to identify specific protein protons of side-chains engaged in CH-π interactions with aromatic ring systems of a ligand, based solely on 1 H chemical-shift values of the interacting protein aromatic ring protons. The information encoded in the chemical shifts induced by such interactions serves as a proxy for the strength of each individual CH-π interaction. PI by NMR changes the paradigm by which chemists can optimize the potency of drug candidates: direct determination of individual π interactions rather than averaged measures of all interactions.
