Coupling of C-amino aza-substituted heterocycles with an isocyanide ligand in palladium(ii) complex

Coupling of Thiazole-2-Amines with Isocyanide Ligands in bis-(Isocyanide) Platinum Complex: A New Type of Reactivity

The treatment of cis-[PtCl2(XylNC)2] with thiazol-2-amines in a 2:1 ratio leads to a regioisomeric mixture of two binuclear complexes. These regioisomers are products of kinetic and thermodynamic control capable of regioisomerization. When the same reaction is carried out with a 5-fold excess of thiazol-2-amine, the nucleophile is able to react with the in situ-formed binuclear platinum(II) complexes, yielding a new type of bis-carbene platinum species. All new isolated compounds were characterized by 1H, 13C{1H}, and 195Pt{1H} NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution ESI-MS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Experimental and Computational Tuning of Metalla-N-Heterocyclic Carbenes at Palladium(II) and Platinum(II) Centers

Palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes featuring metalla-N-heterocyclic carbenes (7–12) were synthesised via metal-mediated coupling between equimolar cis-[MCl2(CNR)2] (R = 2,6-Me2C6H3 (Xyl), 2,4,6-Me3C6H3 (Mes)] and 2-aminopyridine or 2-aminopyrazine. Thiocyanate complexes 13–18 with...

PdII- and PtII-mediated coupling of aryl isocyanides with N-heterocyclic thiones

A Pd^II- and Pt^II-mediated reaction of aryl isocyanides with N-heterocyclic thiones results in a previously undescribed type of regioselectivity for ambident nucleophile addition to coordinated isocyanides.

Water soluble palladium(ii) and platinum(ii) acyclic diaminocarbene complexes: solution behavior, DNA binding, and antiproliferative activity

Water soluble Pd(ii) and Pt(ii)–ADC species synthesized via the metal-mediated coupling of isocyanides and 1,2-diaminobenzene have demonstrated antitumor potential.

Intermolecular hydrogen bonding H···Cl− in the solid palladium(II)-diaminocarbene complexes

Weak intermolecular non-covalent H···Cl− interactions in the solid chelated palladium(II)-diaminocarbene complex cis-[PdCl(CNXyl){C(NHXyl)=NHC6H2Me2 NH2}]Cl (3; Xyl=2,6-Me2C6H3) were studied by XRD followed by appropriate DFT calculations. The N–H···Cl contacts for both NH groups in the carbene moiety are different (N1–H···Cl2 3.5258(19), N2–H···Cl2 3.0797(17) Å). The DFT calculations and topological analysis of the electron density distribution within the formalism of Bader’s theory (QTAIM method) were performed for a model cluster of the carbene complex 3. The theoretical data confirmed that the strength of intermolecular HB H···Cl− is different for two NH-protons of the carbene fragment. The influence of crystal packing effects on the formation of hydrogen bonds in the cluster of 3 is noticeable.

Nuclearity control of nickel(ii)–azole systems for the generation of well-defined (azolate)₂Ni^IIspecies.

Cyclic six-membered palladium complexes derived from palladium mediated C–N coupling of organonitrile and formamidine

Synthesis and structural characterizations of neutral, cationic and anionic six-membered palladium complexes obtained through palladium mediated C–N bond coupling between organonitrile and formamidinium salt are reported.
