Synthesis and characterization of new 3,3`-bipyrazole-4,4`-dicarboxylic acid derivatives and some of their palladium(II) complexes as pre-catalyst for Suzuki coupling reaction in water

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of bis-hydrazonyl chlorides with methyl propiolate afforded dimethyl 1,1¢-aryl-3,3`-bipyrazole-4,4`-dicarboxylates (5a,b). Heating the later compound 5a with a mixture of HCl/AcOH gave 3,3`-bipyrazole-5,5`-dicarboxylic acid derivative 6. Treatment of the hydrazonoyl chloride (1a) and 3,3`-bipyrazole-5,5`-dicarboxylic acid (6) with palladium(II) chloride gave the corresponding Pd-complexes 7 and 8, respectively. The catalytic activity of the prepared Pd-complexes was examined in the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of phenylboronic acid with activated and deactivated aryl(hetaryl) bromides. The catalyst system provides very good to excellent yields, 85-94%. The structures of the obtained products were established from their elemental analysis, spectral data, XPS, EDX, and single crystal X-ray crystallography.

Studies on azide complexes of neodymium(III)-Part XII^†

70-71The spectrophotometric measurements carried out in aqueous solutions containing Nd3+ and N ions, show the formation of a weak Nd(N3)2+ complex ion in 1:1 molar ratio. The stability constant of the complex has been measured at 25 ± 1°C, pH =5.0 and at an ionic strength = 2.0 M (NaClO4), using both Scott and Dilution methods and the values are found to be (50.1 ±0.5) X 10-2 and (49.9± 1.6) X 10-2 respectively. The molar absorptivity values of the complex are (33.24 ± 0.31) and (36.3 ± 0.6) at 575 nm
