Two new Mn(II) complexes,trans-[Mn(L1-L2)2(NCS)2] (1–2) with triaryltriazole (1, L1 = 3-(p-bromophenyl)-4-phenyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole;2, L2 = 3,4-bis(p-methylphenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole), have been synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Crystallographic studies revealed that both1and2contain a distorted octahedral [MnN6] core with twotrans-disposed NCS−ions. The L1 ligand,1and2, together with four known homologous Mn(II) complexes,trans-[Mn(L3-L6)2(NCS)2] (3–6) (3, L3 = 3-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4-(p-chlorophenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole;4, L4 = 3-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4-(p-bromophenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole;5, L5 = 3-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-(p-methylphenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole;6, L6 = 3,5-bis(2-pyridyl)-4-(p-methylphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole), were testedin vitrofor their antibacterial activities against two Gram-positive bacterial strains and two Gram-negative bacterial strains by the MTT method. The results indicate that1exhibited better activity than Penicillin and Kanamycin againstPseudomonas aeruginosaand also better than its free L1 ligand. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Three pyrrolyl-substituted triaryltriazoles, 3-(N-methyl-2-pyrrolyl)-4-(p-R-phenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole (L1: R = MeO; L2: R = Cl; L3: R = Br), and their mononuclear iron(II) complexes,trans-[Fe(L1–3)2(NCS)2]∙2MeOH (1: L1;2: L2;3: L3), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Crystallographic studies revealed that1–3are isomorphous and crystallize in the triclinic space groupP-1. All the complexes have a similar octahedral [FeN6] core with twotrans-NCS−ions. Each ligand adopts a chelating bidentate coordination mode via the pyridyl N and one N of the triazole. Intermolecular O–H⋯O hydrogen bonding and C–H⋯πinteractions link the molecules of1–3to form a 1-D chain or 2-D framework. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements indicated that all the complexes remained in a high-spin state from 1.8 to 300 K and had a weak antiferromagnetic interaction.

Two new asymmetrical 3-( p-R-phenyl)-4-amino-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles ( 3a, R = CH3 and 3b, R = OCH3) were synthesized with a yield of 58% and 69%, respectively. The compounds 3a and 3b were characterized with FT-IR, 1H NMR, ESI-MS spectra, and elemental analysis. Additionally, their molecular and crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Three polynuclear clusters, [Cu4L8](ClO4)4·4H2O (1), [Zn3L6(H2O)6](ClO4)6·6H2O (2), and [Mn3L6(CH3OH)6](ClO4)6·4.5H2O (3) (L = 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole), obtained by the reactions of M(ClO4)2·6H2O with L have been isolated and structurally characterized.

Three iron(II) complexes with 3-(p-bromophenyl)-4-phenyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole (L),trans-[FeL2(NCS)2] (1),trans-[FeL2(NCS)2]·2MeOH (1·2MeOH), andtrans-[FeL2(NCSe)2] (2), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and single crystal X-ray crystallography.

Triaryltriazoles are of interest in iron(II) complexes designed to study spin-crossover properties. In this study, three new asymmetrical substituted triaryltriazoles, 3-( p-R-phenyl)-4-( p-chlorophenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles (R = OCH3, 5a; Cl, 5b; Br, 5c), were successfully synthesized from 2-picolinic acid by a three-step reaction through an intermediate N-( p-R-phenylcarbonyl)- N′-(2-pyridylcarbonyl)hydrazine ( 4a-4c). Yield of 5a- 5c is in the range from 74 to 87%. The compounds 5a- 5c were characterized by UV, FTIR, 1H-NMR, electrospray ionization mass spectrum spectra, and elemental analysis. Additionally, the absolute configurations of 5a-5c were determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Two new complexes, trans-[MnL2(NCS)2] (1) and trans-[CoL2(H2O)(EtOH)](ClO4)2 · H2O (2) with asymmetrical triaryltriazole ligands [L = 3-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-(p-methylphenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole], have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the complexes each L adopts a chelating bidentate mode via the nitrogen of pyridyl and triazole. Both complexes have a similar distorted octahedral core with two NCS- ions in the trans position in 1, while one H2O and one EtOH are present in the axial sites in 2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: A novel iron(II) complex, trans-[FeL2(NCS)2][FeL2(CH3OH)2](NCS)2 (1) with 4-amino-3-(p-chlorophenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole (L) has been successfully synthesized and characterized. X-ray crystallography analysis shows that 1 is the first example in the mononuclear triazole-based complexes consisting of two distinct molecules: trans-[FeL2(NCS)2] and trans-[FeL2(CH3OH)2](NCS)2 with each octahedral iron(II) center coordinated axial by two NCS− ions in Fe1 but two MeOH molecules in Fe2. Moreover, 1 can lose two MeOH molecules at 220°C to form trans-[FeL2(NCS)2] (2) which can be transformed to 1 when recrystallizing 2 in methanol. Both 1 and 2 are high-spin species in the range of 1.8–300K. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
