Ruthenium Complexes of Substituted Hydrazine: New Solution- and Solid-State Binding Modes

Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl half-sandwich hydrazine complexes of ruthenium: preparation and reactivity

The preparation and selective oxidation of hydrazine complexes of ruthenium stabilised by a pentamethylcyclopentadienyl fragment are described. The formation of the sandwich complex [Ru(η⁵-C₅Me₅)(η⁶-C₆H₆)]BPh₄ through the oxidation of coordinate phenylhydrazine is also reported.

Experimental and computational study on 2,2'-[(1E,2E)-hydrazine-1,2-diylidenedi(1E)eth-1-yl-1-ylidene]diphenol and its Ni(II), Pt(II), Pd(II) complexes

2,2'-[(1E,2E)-hydrazine-1,2-diylidenedi(1E)eth-1-yl-1-ylidene]diphenol and its dimeric, binuclear Ni(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) metal complexes were synthesized. Hydrazine derivative and its complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, LC-MS, IR, electronic spectra, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra, conductivity and magnetic measurements. 1H and 13C shielding tensors for crystal structure were calculated with GIAO/DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) methods in CDCl3. The vibrational band assignments were performed at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) theory level combined with scaled quantum mechanics force field (SQMFF) methodology. The antibacterial activities of synthesized compounds were studied against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by using the microdilution and disk diffusion method. As the antibacterial activity results evidently show, the compound possessed a broad spectrum of activity against the tested bacteria.
