There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

: The unpolarized absorption and circular dichroism spectra of the fundamental vibrational transitions of the chiral molecule, 4-methyl-2-oxetanone, are calculated ab initio. Harmonic force fields are obtained using Density Functional Theory (DFT), MP2, and SCF methodologies and a 5S4P2D/3S2P (TZ2P) basis set. DFT calculations use the Local Spin Density Approximation (LSDA), BLYP, and Becke3LYP (B3LYP) density functionals. Mid-IR spectra predicted using LSDA, BLYP, and B3LYP force fields are of significantly different quality, the B3LYP force field yielding spectra in clearly superior, and overall excellent, agreement with experiment. The MP2 force field yields spectra in slightly worse agreement with experiment than the B3LYP force field. The SCF force field yields spectra in poor agreement with experiment.The basis set dependence of B3LYP force fields is also explored: the 6-31G* and TZ2P basis sets give very similar results while the 3-21G basis set yields spectra in substantially worse agreements with experiment. jg

Synthesis, structure and Hirshfeld analysis of the potent antimicrobial [Ag(4-bromopyrazole)2ClO4] complex

The antimicrobial, anticancer, and antioxidant activities of four cobalt (III) complexes, [CoL2]X (X = ClO4¯ (1); OAc¯ (2), Cl¯ (3), or NO3¯ (4) with hydralazine Schiff base derivative (HL), were presented. The structure of the newly synthesized complexes 1 and 2 was confirmed utilizing FTIR, UV-Vis, and NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopy. In addition, single crystal X-ray diffraction was used to approve the structure of complex 1. Based on Hirshfeld analysis, the molecular packing of 1 is controlled by short HH, OH, NH, and HC(π) interactions. The results of the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) for the Co (III) complexes revealed the characteristic peaks of Co2p3/2 and Co2p1/2 with binding energy differences of 14.85–14.96 which greatly approved that the Co (III) complexes have been assembled successfully. Complex 4 (IC50 = 14.97 ± 0.59 μg/ml) has the highest cytotoxicity against lung carcinoma A-549 cell line compared to the rest of the Co (III) complexes and the free ligand as well. Also, complex 4 has the best antioxidant activity with IC50 of 283.4 ± 12.3 μg/ml. The free ligand has broad spectrum of antibacterial and antifungal actions, while the studied Co (III) complexes have good antibacterial activity especially the chloride complex 3. 

Synthesis, structure, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and antimicrobial, anticancer, and antioxidant activities of Co (III) complexes based on the antihypertensive hydralazine

Molecular and supramolecular structures of two polymeric and one trinuclear Cd(II) complex with hydralazine-type ligands were presented. Self-assembly of E-1-(2-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)hydrazinyl)phthalazine (HL) and CdCl2 gave the 1D coordination polymer [Cd(H2L)Cl3]n*H2O, 1, in which the Cd(II) ion is hexa-coordinated with one cationic monodentate ligand (H2L+) and five chloride ions, two of them acting as connectors between Cd(II) centers, leading to the formation of a 1D coordination polymer along the a-direction. Using DFT calculations, the cationic ligand (H2L+) could be described as a protonated HL with an extra proton at the hydrazone moiety. Repeating the same reaction by heating under reflux conditions in the presence of 1 mL saturated aqueous KSCN solution, the ligand HL underwent cyclization to the corresponding [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine-3(2H)-thione (TPT) followed by the formation of [Cd(TPT)(SCN)2]n*H2O, 2, a 1D coordination polymer. In this complex, the Cd(II) is coordinated with one NS-donor TPT bidentate chelate and two bridged μ(1,3)-thiocyanate ions connecting the Cd(II) centers forming the 1D polymer array along the b-direction. Heating E-2-(1-(2-(phthalazin-1-yl)hydrazono)ethyl)phenol HLOH with CdCl2 under reflux condition gave the trinuclear complex [Cd3(Hydralazine)2(H2O)2Cl6], 3, indicating the hydrolysis of the hydrazonophthalazine ligand HLOH during the course of the reaction. Due to symmetry considerations, there are only two different Cd(II) centers having CdN2Cl3O and CdN2Cl4 coordination environments. Hirshfeld topology analysis was used to analyze the solid-state supramolecular structure of the studied complexes.

Molecular and Supramolecular Structures of Cd(II) Complexes with Hydralazine-Based Ligands; A New Example for Cyclization of Hydrazonophthalazine to Triazolophthalazine

In the present work, a novel heterocyclic hybrid of a spirooxindole system was synthesized via the attachment of ferrocene and triazole motifs into an azomethine ylide by [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction protocol. The X-ray structure of the heterocyclic hybrid (1″R,2″S,3R)-2″-(1-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbonyl)-5-methyl-1″-(ferrocin-2-yl)-1″,2″,5″,6″,7″,7a″-hexahydrospiro[indoline-3,3″-pyrrolizin]-2-one revealed very well the expected structure, by using different analytical tools (FTIR and NMR spectroscopy). It crystallized in the triclinic-crystal system and the P-1-space group. The unit cell parameters are a = 9.1442(2) Å, b = 12.0872(3) Å, c = 14.1223(4) Å, α = 102.1700(10)°, β = 97.4190(10)°, γ = 99.1600(10)°, and V = 1484.81(7) Å3. There are two molecules per unit cell and one formula unit per asymmetric unit. Hirshfeld analysis was used to study the molecular packing of the heterocyclic hybrid. H···H (50.8%), H···C (14.2%), Cl···H (8.9%), O···H (7.3%), and N···H (5.1%) are the most dominant intermolecular contacts in the crystal structure. O···H, N···H, H···C, F···H, F···C, and O···O are the only contacts that have the characteristic features of short and significant interactions. AIM study indicated predominant covalent characters for the Fe–C interactions. Also, the electron density (ρ(r)) at the bond critical point correlated inversely with the Fe–C distances.
