Synthesis and characterization of mononuclear hydroxamato and hydroximato complexes of iron(iii) based on the tris-(2-pyridylmethyl)amine ligand

Abstract

The reaction of acetohydroxamic (CH3C(O)–NHOH), benzhydroxamic acid (PhC(O)–NHOH) or 1-hydroxypyridin-2(1H)-one (pyrC(O)–NOH) in the presence of tris-(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPA), sodium methoxide and an iron(III) salt yields the mononuclear complexes [Fe(TPA)(CH3C(O)–NHO)]2+ (1a), [Fe(TPA)(PhC(O)–NHO)]2+ (1b) and [Fe(TPA)(pyrC(O)–NO)]2+ (1c). The hydroxamato complexes 1a and 1b are easily converted to their hydroximato form [Fe(TPA)(CH3C(O)[double bond, length as m-dash]NO)]+ (2a) and [Fe(TPA)(PhC(O)[double bond, length as m-dash]NO)]+ (2b) by addition of base. The complexes described were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, EPR and cyclic voltammetry, as well as single-crystal X-ray crystallography for 1a and 2b.
