A new bis(imino)pyridine compound, 2,6-{(2,6-Me(2)-C(6)H(3))NC(t-Bu)}(2)C(5)H(3)N (), has been synthesized with t-butyl substituents on the imino carbon atoms. The stepwise synthetic method for assembly of this compound is novel. Compound and its synthetic precursor, mono(imino)pyridine , have been characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Metalation attempts of using iron(ii) chloride under forcing conditions does not yield the desired iron(ii) chloride complex; the use of refluxing acetic acid solvent provides a minimal amount of a paramagnetic species that has been characterized by NMR spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility (NMR method). Computational methods have been used to evaluate the relative energies of three conformations of bis(imino)pyridine ligands with varying alkyl substitution at the imino carbon positions. The relative energies of these closed, open and open-planar conformations of reveal a thermodynamic argument for the difficulty in metalation of , as compared to related ligands with less steric hindrance at the imino carbon atoms.
Let f(z) be a single-valued function of z, defined in the domain D given by ; suppose that f(z) is integrable in the general Denjoy sense round all circles with centre ζ lying in D, and along all portions of radial lines intercepted between two such circles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
