Palladium(II) complexes of a bridging amine bis(phenolate) ligand featuring κ² and κ³ coordination modes
Bidentate and tridentate coordination of a 2,4-di-tert-butyl-substituted bridging amine bis(phenolate) ligand to a palladium(II) center are observed within the same crystal structure, namely dichlorido({6,6′-[(ethane-1,2-diylbis(methylazanediyl)]bis(methylene)}bis(2,4-di-tert-butylphenol))palladium(II) chlorido(2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-{[(2-{[(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)methyl](methyl)amino}ethyl)(methyl)amino]methyl}phenolato)palladium(II) methanol 1.685-solvate 0.315-hydrate, [PdCl2(C34H56N2O2)][PdCl(C34H55N2O2)]·1.685CH3OH·0.315H2O. Both complexes exhibit a square-planar geometry, with unbound phenol moieties participating in intermolecular hydrogen bonding with co-crystallized water and methanol. The presence of both κ2 and κ3 coordination modes arising from the same solution suggest a dynamic process in which phenol donors may coordinate or dissociate from the metal center, and offers insight into catalyst speciation throughout Pd-mediated processes. The unit cell contains dichlorido({6,6′-[(ethane-1,2-diylbis(methylazanediyl)]bis(methylene)}bis(2,4-di-tert-butylphenol))palladium(II), {(L2)PdCl2}, and chlorido(2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-{[(2-{[(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)methyl](methyl)amino}ethyl)(methyl)amino]methyl}phenolato)palladium(II), {(L2X)PdCl}, molecules as well as fractional water and methanol solvent molecules
Crystal structure of {N-[(6-bromopyridin-2-yl)(phenyl)methylidene]-2,6-dimethylaniline-κ2N,N′}dichloridozinc dichloromethane hemisolvate
The solvated title compound, [ZnCl2(C20H17BrN2)]·0.5CH2Cl2, comprises a bidentate iminopyridine ligand and two Cl atoms bound to a zinc2+ cation in a distorted tetrahedral arrangement. The chelate bond lengths are consistent with localized C=N double bonds and a C—C single bond, as expected for an unreduced ligand bound to a closed-shell transition metal cation. Apart from weak nonclassical C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds between the complex molecules and the disordered solvent molecules (occupancy = 0.5), no further significant intermolecular interactions are observed

Corrosion at the Polymer-Metal Interface in Artificial Seawater Solutions
Polymer components for liquid sealing applications are employed in a variety of potentially corrosive environments, such as seawater. Frequently, corrosion of the metal is found at or adjacent to the rubber-metal interface rather than at a noncontact area. The corrosion of different metal alloys (titanium, bronze, nickel, aluminum, 316 stainless steel, and 4130 steel) in combination with rubber O-rings (Buna-N and EPDM) of varying internal diameters and cross-sectional shapes in seawater over a period of four years is described herein. The corrosion of some metals (i.e., 4130 stainless steel) was found to be accelerated through interaction with Buna-N rubber O-rings. Theories to account for corrosion at the polymer-metal interface, especially with respect to polymer composition and O-ring size and shape, are discussed
Dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complex featuring a 2,4-difluoro-substituted amine bis(phenolate) ligand
Synthetic complexes containing a cis-[MoO2]2+ core are well-established models for the molybdenum co-factor (Moco). Here we report the crystal structure of such a model complex bearing a tetradentate amine bis(phenolate) ligand with fluorine substituents on the phenolate rings, namely, [2,2′-({[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]azanediyl}bis(methylene))bis(4,6-difluorophenolato)]dioxidomolybdenum(VI)), [Mo(C18H18F4N2O2)O2]. Distortion from idealized octahedral symmetry about the Mo center is evident in the large O=Mo=O angle [108.54 (4)°] and the small N–Mo–Ophenolate angles [79.79 (4), 81.21 (3), 77.83 (3), and 84.59 (3)°]. The dihedral angle between the phenolate rings is 60.06 (4)°, and π–π stacking is observed between aromatic rings related by inversion (1 − x, 1 − y, 1 − z). The lower data-collection temperature of 150 K vs room-temperature data collection reported previously [KOWXIF; Cao et al. (2014). Transit. Met. Chem. 39, 933–937] and larger 2θ range for data collection (5.8–66.6° versus 6–54.96°) led to a structure with lower R1 and ωR2 values (0.019 and 0.049 vs 0.0310 and 0.0566 for KOWXIF). Comparison of the metrical parameters with KOWXIF suggests that this dataset offers a more realistic depiction of bonding within the MoVI=O moiety
