The reaction between the ligand di(4-pyridyl)sulfide (dps) and two salts of divalent first row transition metals (M = Co2+, and Cu2+) resulted in three new compounds with formula: [Co(dps)4(H2O)2](ClO4)2⋅H2O (1), [Cu(dps)2(dmso)2]n(ClO4)2n (2) and [{Cu(dps)2(dmso)2}{Cu(dps)2(dmso)(H2O)}]n(ClO4)4...

Due to the important pharmaceutical activities of benzimidazole derivatives, the differences between 2-(2′-pyridyl)benzimidazole and 2-(4′-pyridyl)benzimidazole were researched by terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and density functional theory systematically. Although the only difference betw...

The changing of the electronic and vibronic states due to the insertion of Zn(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) or Co(II) ions in the meso-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)porphyrin ring center is investigated. The combination of absorption, photoluminescence, Raman and infrared spectroscopies with second-derivative-based ...

In this paper, we report the synthesis, X-Ray structure, FTIR and thermal characterization, and computational investigations of a silver (I) complex, bis (methyl 4-pyridyl ketone) nitrato silver (I) (I),[ Ag(M4PK)2 NO3] (M4PK = methyl 4-pyridyl ketone, C7H7NO). The silver atom in the complex (I)...

An efficient and selective synthesis of Z-(het)arylallylphosphonates is described. The versatile Pd-assisted process also allowed polyarylation sequences leading to star-shaped and binaphthyl derivatives. The methodology could be extended to the preparation of new phosphonomethyl-coumarin, -quin...
