T. Yoshida et S. Kaizaki, NMR spectra and magnetic exchange interactions in nickel(II) complexes with a chelated nitronyl nitroxide radical, INORG CHEM, 38(6), 1999, pp. 1054-1058
H-1 or H-2 NMR contact shifts of the beta-diketonate methine in the radical
complexes [Ni(beta-diketonato)(2)(NIT2-py)] and [Ni(beta-diketonato)(tmen)
(NIT2-py)](+) (NIT2-py = 2-(2'-pyridyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-
imidazolyl-3-oxide-1-oxyl and tmen = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine)
were found to correlate to a product of the respective H-1 or H-2 NMR conta
ct shifts of the methine in the nonradical complexes [Ni(beta-diketonato)(2
)(tmen)] and the fractional contribution to the Ni(II) moiety arising from
the magnetic interaction between nickel(II) ion and NIT2-py radical, propos
ing a new method to estimate the exchange coupling constant J value from th
e NMR contact shifts. Variable temperature H-2 NMR measurements of the C-D
signals in [Ni(acac-d)(2)(NIT2-py)], [Ni-(acac-d)(tmen)(NIT2-py)](+), and [
Ni(acac-d)(2)(tmen)] suggested the topological discrimination of the acetyl
acetonates.
