RESUMO
Luminescent cuprous complexes are of great importance among coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The title heteroleptic cuprous polymer solvate, catena-poly[[[(9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphane)-κ2P,P'](µ-pyridine-3-carbonitrile-κ2N1:N3)copper(I)] hexafluorophosphate dichloromethane trisolvate], {[Cu(C6H4N2)(C39H32OP2)]PF6·3CH2Cl2}n, conventionally abbreviated as {[Cu(3-PyCN)(Xantphos)]PF6·3CH2Cl2}n, where Xantphos and 3-PyCN represent (9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphane) and pyridine-3-carbonitrile, respectively, has been described. In this polymer solvate, the asymmetric unit consists of three dichloromethane solvent molecules, a hexafluorophosphate anion and a polymeric heteroleptic cuprous complex cation, in which the cuprous centre is in a CuP2N2 tetrahedral coordination and is coordinated by two P atoms from the Xantphos ligand and two N atoms from two 3-PyCN ligands (the pyridyl and cyano N atoms). It is through the connection of the µ2-bridging 3-PyCN ligand that these cuprous centres are linked into a one-dimensional helical chain structure. The chains are further assembled through C-H...π interactions to form a supramolecular metal-organic framework containing solvent-accessible channels. The UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of this heteroleptic cuprous polymer have been studied on as-synthesized samples. Its luminescence emission should mainly originate from the metal-to-ligand charge transfer excited state.
RESUMO
Luminescent cuprous complexes are important coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The structures of two CuIP2S-type cuprous complexes, namely, iodido(thiourea-κS)bis(triphenylphosphane-κP)copper(I), [CuI(CH4N2S)(C18H15P)2] or [CuI(TU)(TPP)2] (I), and (2,3-dihydrobenzimidazole-2-thione-κS)iodidobis(triphenylphosphane-κP)copper(I), [CuI(C7H6N2S)(C18H15P)2] or [CuI(DHBIT)(TPP)2] (II), are described. In these two structures, the complex molecules of both are constructed by one copper(I) centre, one iodide ion, two TPP ligands and one thione ligand (TU for I and DHBIT for II). The copper(I) centres of I and II are both located in a distorted CuIP2S tetrahedron and are coordinated by two P atoms from two TPP ligands, one S atom from the thione ligand and the I atom. The UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of these CuIP2S-type cuprous complexes have been studied using crystalline powder samples. Detailed time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and wavefunction analysis reveal that the pale-blue-green phosphorescence emission should originate from intra-ligand (TPP for I and DHBIT for II) charge transfer, with a small component of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer 3(IL+ML)CT excited state.
RESUMO
Luminescent cuprous complexes are an important class of coordination compounds due to their relative abundance, low cost and ability to display excellent luminescence. The heteroleptic cuprous complex solvate rac-(acetonitrile-κN)(3-aminopyridine-κN)[2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1'-binaphthyl-κ2P,P']copper(I) hexafluoridophosphate dichloromethane monosolvate, [Cu(C5H6N2)(C2H3N)(C44H32P2)]PF6·CH2Cl2, conventionally abbreviated as [Cu(3-PyNH2)(CH3CN)(BINAP)]PF6·CH2Cl2, (I), where BINAP and 3-PyNH2 represent 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1,1'-binaphthyl and 3-aminopyridine, respectively, is described. In this complex solvate, the asymmetric unit consists of a cocrystallized dichloromethane molecule, a hexafluoridophosphate anion and a complete racemic heteroleptic cuprous complex cation in which the cuprous centre, in a tetrahedral CuP2N2 coordination, is coordinated by two P atoms from the BINAP ligand, one N atom from the 3-PyNH2 ligand and another N atom from a coordinated acetonitrile molecule. The UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence properties of this heteroleptic cuprous complex have been studied on polycrystalline powder samples, which had been verified by powder X-ray diffraction before recording the spectra. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations and a wavefunction analysis reveal that the orange-yellow phosphorescence emission should originate from intra-ligand (BINAP) charge transfer mixed with a little of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer 3(IL+ML)CT excited state.
RESUMO
A 58-year-old Chinese man presented with intermittent seizure episodes after being misdiagnosed with epilepsy for eight years. MRI revealed an abnormally strong signal in the distal pancreas. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with pancreatic insulinoma based on the histological findings, and his symptoms improved following surgical removal of the tumor. The appearance of unusual manifestations of insulinoma makes it difficult to diagnose the condition. This disorder should be included in the differential diagnosis of epilepsy and mental illness.
