. Introduction

Aromatic azocompounds (AACs) provide ubiquitous motifs inrganic chemistry and are widely used as organic dyes, indicators,igments, food additives, radical reaction initiators, therapeuticgents, etc. [1,2]. The coordination chemistry of AACs has beenxtensively studied during the last decades on account of possibleombination of interesting functional properties with a diver-ity of molecular geometries of their complexes. Thereby, theseomplexes have attracted attention in diverse fields, such as prepa-ation of conducting and magnetic materials, non-linear optics,upramolecular chemistry, catalysis and bioinorganic chemistry,mong others [1–5].

Methylene active compounds (MACs, e.g., �-diketones, �-initriles, benzoylacetonitriles, cyanothioacetamide, ethylyanoacetate, cyanoanilides, etc.) have also been of consider-ble interest in organic chemistry, for instance, �-diketones aremportant starting materials in many organic reactions [6–10], inarticular in the perfume and cosmetic industries [8,9]. Moreover,any representatives of MACs have been widely used in coordi-

ation chemistry for a long time and have recently been the objectf increasing attention as constituents of polydentate ligands inetallo-supramolecular chemistry. Thus, the rich coordination

hemistry of �-diketones has been reviewed recently [8,9]. Thehemistry of cyano-substituted MACs concerns such organic reac-ions as dimerization, hydrolysis, halogenation, reduction, carbonylondensation, ortho-ester and ylide formation; they are widelypplied in syntheses of, e.g., herbicides, dyes, polymers, washingnd bleaching compositions, lubricants, and optical sensitizers11,12]. Various inorganic template transformations [13] added

further interest on cyano-substituted MAC for metal-mediatedynthesis and coordination chemistry.

A combination of an AAC, in particular an arylhydrazone,ith a MAC in one molecule (Scheme 1) creates multifunctional-

zed arylhydrazones of methylene active compounds (AHMACs).HMACs are versatile starting materials for a number of organicyntheses leading to compounds which are biologically active14], possess liquid crystal properties [15], can be applied asnalytical reagents [16–21], indicators [22], ionophores [23], orydrazone dyes [24]. Moreover, the rich tautomerism and isom-rism of AHMACs together with the intramolecular resonancessisted hydrogen bond (RAHB) system (see below) can be appliedor regulation of tautomerization-isomerization, activation of thearbon in � position to a carbonyl, antiferroelectric–paraelectricransition, regioselective activation of dinitriles, catalysis, ligandiberation, etc. [25–28].

On the other hand, AHMACs constitute a promising type ofigand toward the formation of novel coordination compounds.

or example, a particular representative of the AHMAC fam-ly – arylhydrazones of �-diketones (AHBD) – drastically differn physico-chemical, analytical and coordination properties from

�-diketones [14–23,29–50]; the possibility to include –OH,–AsO3H2, –SO3H, –COOH or –NO2 groups at the ortho-position ofthe aromatic ring (Scheme 2b and c) increases the stability of AHBDcomplexes in comparison with “simple” AHBD (Scheme 2a) and�-diketones [31,51–55]. Moreover, the coordination compoundsof AHBD possess catalytic [51–55] and biological [14] activities,photoluminescence [56], can also be used in thin films as opticalrecording media [57], in high-density recordable optical storageand spin-coating films [58]. Hence, a review on the coordinationchemistry of AHMACs would be timely.

2. Synthesis and physico-chemical properties of AHMAC

2.1. Synthesis

The first methylene active arylhydrazones (Scheme 1) werereported as early as 1883, by Richter and Müntzer, then designatedas “benzolazoaceton” [59] which was five years later shown by Jappand Klingemann to be a hydrazone [60]. Until now, the synthesis ofthis type of AHMACs consists in the coupling of a MAC with an aro-matic diazonium salt, mostly performed in methanolic or ethanolicsolution containing acetate (Scheme 3) [61,62]. This conversion wasconsidered so important that the term Japp–Klingemann became astandard reaction name [61]. In its course, the respective anilinerequires a preceding diazotization with sodium nitrite in acidicmedium to produce the corresponding diazonium salt [60–62],which is an inevitable part of the full Japp–Klingemann conver-sion. The original procedure underwent many modifications andimprovements, e.g., higher yields of more pure products can beobtained when the coupling is undertaken in a solution of sodiumhydroxide instead of sodium acetate (Scheme 3) [29]. On the otherhand, the acid used in the diazotization process strongly influencesthe yield and stability of diazonium salt [1,2].

The Japp–Klingemann method has given rise to an immensevariety of AHMACs derived from various arylamines and MACs[14–23,29–98]. The AHMAC products can be used as intermedi-ates in further synthesis of organic molecules [14] or as ligands incoordination chemistry [e.g., 51–55,88,90,92,99–102].

Another approach to the synthesis of AHMACs involves the reac-tion of a MAC with n-nonafluorobutylsulfonylbenzotriazole in thepresence of NaH in an inert medium (Scheme 4) [103,104]. How-ever, the synthesis of n-nonafluorobutylsulfonylbenzotriazole isnot trivial, and this preparative procedure has not been widely used.

A new template synthesis of AHMAC ligands has recently beenreported (Scheme 5) [13], where one cyano group of a starting dini-trile 1 undergoes a metal (Mn)-assisted nucleophilic attack withdifferent nucleophiles leading to the corresponding unsymmetricproducts 2–5. Nevertheless, the thus synthesized ligands 2–5 werenot liberated and fully characterized. Later, it was demonstratedthat similar AHMAC ligands can be formed upon copper(II)-mediated synthesis and easily liberated on account of the formationof resonance assisted hydrogen bond (RAHB) (Scheme 6) [105]. TheRAHB can also facilitate the direct organic synthesis of symmet-ric and unsymmetric AHMAC compounds (Scheme 7) [25]. In thiscase the cyano moieties of the starting material 6 are easily con-verted to amidine, carboxamide and iminoester derivatives 12–16depending on the nucleophiles and conditions used.

Most of the known AHMACs are AHBDs, the majority of thembeing combined in Table 1. The meaning of the formula symbols isindicated in Scheme 8.

2.2. Terminology, tautomeric, isomeric and structural features

AHBDs derived from symmetric �-diketones exist in solutionand in solid state as the hydrazone E-isomers, whereas AHBDs

erived from unsymmetric �-diketones can exist as a mixture ofnol-azo and hydrazone tautomers in E and Z isomeric forms ore stabilized as the E-isomers of the hydrazone form (Scheme 9)52,70,129]. The protonation/deprotonation of the MAC moietynduces a rotation around the hydrazone C N double bond, leadingo isomerization [129–132]. Therefore, we believe that gener-lly these compounds are better called arylhydrazones of, e.g.,eta-diketones, rather than hydrazono-derivatives of triketoness was proposed in some publications [128,133]. On the otherand, the designation [14] “2-(het)arylhydrazono-1,3-dicarbonylompounds” is not generally correct, because, e.g., arylhydrazonesf pentane-2,4-dione should be called 3-(arylhydrazone)pentane-,4-diones [88]. Thus, generally one should not indicate the positionf the arylhydrazone group.

AHBDs possess longer conjugated chains with more possibili-ies to form different tautomers and isomers, in comparison with,

.g., �-diketones, the well-known model to study the keto-enolautomerization [7,10,134–136]. Thus, AHBDs potentially mightxist in three tautomeric forms – (E/Z)-enol-azo, keto-azo and

(E/Z)-hydrazone (Scheme 9), giving rise to their application fordesign of functional materials attributed to smart hydrogen bond-ing and structural switching [63–76]. From another perspective,all the structurally studied AHBDs have a characteristic conjugatedheterodienic system forming a strong N–H· · ·O intramolecularRAHB linking one of the carbonyl groups to the NH-moiety ofthe hydrazone unit (Scheme 9) [15,26,60–98]. This hydrogen bondstrongly influences the properties of AHBD [67] and its strength isessentially determined by the degree of �-delocalization withinthe ketohydrazone hetero-conjugated system and is modulatedby the factors that can affect the degree of conjugation, includ-ing inductive ones and nonbonding intermolecular interactions.Also it was assumed that there is a cooperative effect between theH-bond strengthening and the �-electron delocalization of con-jugated bonds linking the proton-donating and proton-acceptinggroups [63,71]. The stable RAHB system formed hampers the com-plex formation and in many cases must be destroyed (e.g., with abase) before addition of a metal ion [54,113].

As mentioned above (Scheme 9), AHMAC and in particular AHBDcan, in principle, exist in several tautomeric forms. However, twopeaks for the acetyl groups of the diketone moiety of AHBD in theNMR spectra indicate that the resonance of one of these groupsundergoes a shift as a result of hydrogen bonding with the hydra-zone NH moiety. These data support the predominance of thehydrazone form with a six-membered H-bonded ring involvingone of the carbonyl groups and the protonated nitrogen moietyof the hydrazone structure (Scheme 9). On the other hand, the 1H

NMR spectra of the ortho-hydroxy substituted AHBD derived fromunsymmetrical �-diketones consist of two sets of signals, indicatingtheir existence as a mixture of enol-azo and hydrazone tautomericforms (Scheme 9) [52]. The hydrazone form of AHDB is generally

From another viewpoint, unsymmetrical AHMACs exist in solu-tion as a pair of intramolecular H-bonded hydrazone (E,Z)-isomers,and a transfer between these isomers can be regulated by pH [132]

r coordination [131]. All the described intramolecular conversionsan be also induced by solute–solvent interactions leading to inter-sting solvatochromic effects [48,137]. Although the presence ofeveral tautomeric and/or isomeric forms hampers the interpre-ation of the spectroscopic data [31,52], theoretical calculationsometimes allow one to overcome these difficulties by rationalizinghe relation between the tautomeric ratio and the physico-chemicalroperties [29,73–75,138].

In the solid phase, all the AHBDs described exist only in theydrazone form with a six-membered RAHB involving the N–NH–oiety and a carbonyl group (Scheme 9) [14,29,30,52,70,89,94]. X-

ay analyses of some AHBD at different temperatures allows one toonclude [52] that, in the solid state, the temperature does not affecthe tautomeric competition with an intramolecular proton transfer,n contrast to what was found in solution by NMR (see above) andeported in the solid phase for the related ketohydrazone–azoenolystem [73].

Therefore, based on IR, NMR and X-ray structural analyses, onean conclude that the AHBDs derived from the symmetric MACsxist in solution and in the solid phase mainly in the hydrazoneorm, while those derived from the unsymmetric MACs are presentn solution as a mixture of hydrazone and enol-azo forms, althoughn the solid phase the hydrazone form predominates.

The study of the tautomerization and isomerization of AHMACseserves further exploration because it can open up a broadange of opportunities for the design of new switching sys-

ems [73–75,139], molecular rotors [140], optical recording media57,58], solvatochromic colorants [48,137,139], reactions relatedo the photosynthetic pathway [141], cation-diffusion facilitators

2.3. Acid–base and redox properties of AHBDs

The acid–base properties of AHMACs influence their complexingability which is reflected in their role as, e.g., analytes in analyticalchemistry [16–23]. For instance, the inclusion of stronger electron-withdrawing groups to AHBD increases the acidity and can facilitatethe complexation with a certain metal ion.

pH-metric titrations of unsubstituted AHBDs show only onejump, while ortho-hydroxy and carboxyl substituted AHBDs behaveas diprotic weak acids (Tables 2 and 3) [16–18,22,29–42,46,51].The data show that with an increase of the electron-withdrawingproperties of a substituent in the aromatic part or the �-diketonefragment, the acidity of AHBD increases (pK decreases), the depro-tonation being endothermic. The introduction of a functional groupin para-position of the aromatic ring of the molecule influencesthe thermodynamic characteristics of the dissociation process of17, 41, 42, 48 and 50: with an increase of the inductive effect ofthat substituent ( H < Cl < COOH < F < NO2) the O H and N Hbonds weaken, �H◦ decreases and �S◦ becomes more negative(see below), i.e., the acidity and the number of ions in the systemincrease [29,30,46]. A large positive value of �G◦ indicates thatthe dissociation process is not spontaneous, i.e., it should be forcedby a base if the deprotonation is needed (e.g., for coordination)

The electrochemical behavior of 17, 41, 42, 48 and 50 were stud-ed using cyclic voltammetry [29], and it was observed that the

Theoretical stud-ies account for the irreversibility of the redox processes and allowone to propose conceivable mechanisms involving single-electronanodically induced dimerization and two-electron cathodicallyinduced protonation followed by N N bond cleavage [29].

.1. Complexation of metals with AHBDs in solution

In solution the reactions of complex formation of metal ionsith AHBDs proceed with a shift in the tautomeric equilib-

ium [19–21,46]. Generally the stabilities of metal complexesith AHBDs increase in the order CaII < MgII < MnII < CdII < ZnII

CoII < NiII < UO2II < CuII < FeIII [32–44] and are higher than those

f metal complexes with simple �-diketones, while the functionalroups introduced into the �-diketone fragment and aromatic partf the molecule affect the selectivity toward certain metal-ionsTable 4) [16,17,19–21,23].

.2. Sodium(I) and potassium(I) complexes

Compound 146 featuring a 2-carboxy group at the aromatic partnd a trifluoromethyl in the pentane-2,4-dione moiety (Scheme 8nd Table 1) forms the binuclear Na+ chelate complexes 156 and57 composed of sodium ions, two carboxylic hydrazone ligandsnd two coordinated alcohol solvent molecules (Scheme 10) [92].he RAHB system within the AHBD ligand is formed at the morelectron-donating side of the dione moiety. The hydrogen bondswing to the alcohol molecules give rise to the stack formation of

supramolecular cluster.

The complex salt 158 (Scheme 11) was prepared by refluxing a

olution of 28 and sodium hydroxide in methanol [113]. As it can beeen, even the application of this strong base does not allow one toreak the RAHB system. A 1D coordination polymer with bridging

water molecules is formed in the solid state. The coordination num-ber of sodium is 6 and it has a distorted octahedral coordinationenvironment. The carboxyl group of 28 is deprotonated and com-pensates the charge of sodium ions.

The first KI–AHBD complex 159 was isolated in the course of thesynthesis of 22 from 23 [110], involving a shift of the p-nitro groupwith phenyl ring nitration (Scheme 12). A noteworthy feature of

.3. Magnesium(II) complex

Structurally similar to 158, the MgII–AHBD complex salt 160Scheme 13) was synthesized by reacting 28 with MgII hydroxide113]. The magnesium coordination number is 6 and its positiveharge is neutralized by the deprotonated carboxyl groups andydroxyl ligands. The MgII ions are combined through hydroxy-nd aqua-bridges in 1D chain, while the RAHB system is preservedithin the AHBD ligand.

3.5. Iron(III) complexes

The water-soluble FeIII–AHBD complexes 165 and 166(Scheme 16) were isolated in solid state upon reaction of FeIII

chloride with 19 and 121, respectively, in acidic medium (pH2) [108]. Both octahedral type structures are similar, with theeffective charge of FeIII being neutralized by the deprotonatedsulfo group, alkoxy oxygen atoms and hydrazone nitrogen. Themodification of the MAC fragment as well as of the aromaticpart (NO2 replacement by Cl) does not significantly influencethe structure. The coordinated water molecules are labile, whichcan facilitate exchange steps in catalysis. Accordingly, they wereapplied as catalysts for cyclohexane oxidation and good yields andhigh selectivities were observed [108].

3.6. Cobalt(II) complexes

It was demonstrated [32] that CoII ions in solution interact withsome AHBDs, but attempts to prepare complexes in the solid stateby concentration of a solution of CoII nitrate and 20 failed [55].To solve this problem, 20 was first deprotonated by addition ofethylenediamine (en), and then the thus prepared salt 167 was usedas the starting material for further coordination to CoII to afford 168(Scheme 17) [55]. The added ethylenediamine conceivably weak-ens the hydrogen-bonded system in 20 and the reactivity of suchactivated 20 increases, facilitating the N H deprotonation and the

coordination to the metal ion. Alternatively, 168 can be preparedvia 167 formed in situ, upon neutralization of 20 with en in solutionand subsequent addition of the CoII salt.

Two other monomers 170 [110] and 171 [113] (Scheme 19)ere synthesized by deprotonation of 22 and 28 with base and

ubsequent addition of NiII salts. Both the hexacoordinate NiII struc-ures bear three coordinated water molecules, two of them in axial

ositions. The AHBD ligands are tridentate, coordinated via theeprotonated OH (or COOH) group in ortho position of the aromaticing, one of the nitrogen atoms of the former hydrazone unit andne oxygen atom of a carbonyl group.

The reaction between Ni(OAc)2·4H2O and the ortho–SC2H5 sub-stituted AHBD 39 (1:2 molar ratio) affords 174 (Scheme 21) [114].In this complex, 39 acts as O,N,S tridentate chelating ligand. Coulo-metric oxidation of 174 led to the formation of the NiIII state provenby its EPR spectrum. Moroever, 174 has shown a good anti-bacterialactivity.

3.8. Copper(II) complexes

AHBDs have proven to be especially good and versatile ligandsfor the formation of CuII complexes. In these complexes, the CuII

ions are mainly bound in a chelating fashion creating a CuNNCCOmetallacycle, while additional substituents may influence the over-all geometry. These compounds are promising building blocks forthe design of self-assembled coordination organic-inorganic mate-rials [145] or smart functional materials due to tautomerism [69].

For instance, series of 3-(arylhydrazone)pentane-2,4-diones 33and 45 were investigated with regard to complex formation with

CuII salts, leading to the isolation of complexes 175 and 176(Scheme 22) [88]. Both are mononuclear with a ligand to metal ratioof 2:1. The ligands as a whole bear chelating N2O2 binding sites thatcreate a square-planar environment. In 175, the coordinated water

The centrosymmetric trinuclear complex 178 (Scheme 24) wasprepared by reaction of CuII sulfate with 19 [41]. In 178, AHBD actsas a tetradentate ONO and O ligand; the central Cu atom has thecoordination number six, and the terminal ones have the coordi-nation number five. The complex exhibits several labile sites andis soluble in water, properties that are potentially important forcatalytic applications.

Reaction of 26 with copper(II) acetate hydrate in the presenceof pyrazine (pz) gives rise to the 1D coordination polymer [Cu2(�-L)2(H2O)2(�-pz)]n (179) (Scheme 25) [109] where the bidentatepz molecules interlink the [Cu2(�-L)2(H2O)2] units. The coppercenters show distorted octahedral coordination, being connectedvia oxygen atoms of the sulfo groups. Hydrogen bonds involv-ing the uncoordinated carbonyl group, coordinated water and pzmolecules give rise to the stack formation of a supramolecular 3Dassociate.

Complexes 180–185 (Scheme 26) were synthesized using theortho-hydroxy substituted AHBDs 18, 23, 64, 70, 118, and 122[51,52]. The substituents in the �-diketone fragment and in thearomatic part of the AHBD ligands strongly influence the overallstructures. Thus, 180 and 182 are dimers, dimeric repeating unitsare also main building blocks of the polymeric grid-type network of

Complex 197 (Scheme 30) was synthesized by reaction of 127with CuII nitrate [97]. The copper atom is coordinated by the nitro-gen atom of the former hydrazone group close to the phenyl ring,the oxygen atom of one of the carbonyl groups of the barbituricmoiety and one of the oxygen atoms of the carboxylate, formingtwo six-membered chelate rings. Two water molecules complete atypical 4 + 1 square-based pyramidal coordination.

The CuII complex 198 (Scheme 31) is a coordination polymerwith a binuclear core of a distorted square pyramidal geometry;the coordination sphere is filled by hydrazone nitrogen, alkoxy andcarbonyl oxygen atoms [31]. The polymeric chain is formed via axialcoordination of the non-chelating carbonyl group of the MAC partof 78.

Reaction of CuII acetate with 50 gave the polymer complex 201Scheme 33) [102]. The RAHB system stays intact and the CuII

ations are combined through coordination by three carboxylate atoms from one AHBD ligand and two acetates.

The CuII–AHBD complexes 202–206 were prepared by reac-ing 118 with a CuII source in the presence of auxiliary ligandsScheme 34) [123]. In 202, water molecules play the role of bridgesonnecting two dimeric structural units, while a coordination poly-er is formed by ligation of the sulfo group to CuII. 202 is the first

xample in which both nitrogen atoms of the former hydrazoneroup are simultaneously coordinated to CuII. Pyrazine bridges twoonomers forming 206. 202–206 were applied as catalysts in the

xidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone [123].Upon reactions of CuII with 1 and 6 in the presence of methanol,

thanol, water, ethylamine and ethylenediamine, nucleophilicttacks to the cyano moieties occur leading to a variety of lig-ted amidines, carboxamides and iminoesters depending on the

tarting ligands, nucleophiles and conditions used. Mononuclear, 207–209, tetranuclear 10, 211, 212 and polymeric 208 and 210omplexes were thus synthesized (Scheme 35) [105]. The easyydrogen-bond assisted liberation of ligands 8 and 11 from 7 and

10 was demonstrated (Scheme 6). Selective oxidation of primaryand secondary alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds,as well as diastereoselective nitroaldol (Henry) reaction catalyzedby the complexes were studied, affording typical yields of 80–99%[105].

The water-soluble zwitterionic complex 213 was prepared byreaction of CuII nitrate with the ethylenediammonium salt of 20(167) (Schemes 17 and 36) [55]. The zwitterionic nature of com-plex 213 (pI = 4.96) can be used in applications where pH-tunableor buffer properties of the system are crucial for the optimal perfor-mance of a specific function (e.g., in catalysis). The buffer zones ofthe complex lay in the weak acidic region with pH close to pK2 = 6.84(where K2 is the deprotonation constant of 213 concerning theH3N+ group of Hen) and in the acid area with pH close to pK1 = 3.08(where K1 concerns the deprotonation of the SO3H group). Possi-bly due to the formation of the zwitterion, the detection limit forthe analytical determination of CuII with 167 (concerning the for-mation of 213) decreases in comparison to 20 and other similarreagents, with both the sensitivity and selectivity being enhanced[49]. In the formation of 213, 20 provides a chelating ligand, whilea crucial synthetic and structural role is played by en, allowing it toorganize water-soluble assemblies and to influence the overall 3Dsupramolecular arrangement. These features should be accountedfor in further exploration of the still rare intramolecular NH3

Thewater molecule is hydrogen-bond donor to the carbonyl and pyri-dine of the adjacent molecule thus generating linear supramolec-ular chains running along the a-axis of the triclinic unit cell.

The tetranuclear 218 and trinuclear 219 complexes (Scheme 39)were prepared by treatment of 50 with ZnCl2·2H2O orZn(NO3)2·6H2O, correspondingly [100]. In 218, a 3D solid-state supramolecular structure was constructed by intra- andintermolecular hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals interactions.In 219, the three zinc ions have two kinds of coordination: theterminal Zn1 and Zn2 are four-coordinate, while the central Zn3is six-coordinate. The Zn1 and Zn2 adopt a slightly distortedtetrahedral geometry, in which three oxygen atoms from threebridged monodeprotonated 50, and one oxygen atom belongs tothe coordinated water. Zn3 is coordinated by six oxygen atoms ofsix bridged monodeprotonated 50 ligands. The thermal behaviorand fluorescent properties of 218 and 219 were also studied.

The AHBDs studiedave a difficult-to-destroy RAHB, thus hampering the coordina-ion to metal ions. Upon concentration of the solution, the RAHBdestroyed by interaction with the solvent molecules) regains itstructure. To shift the overall process to the complex formation, onehould remove the proton by addition of a base but this can leado hydrolysis of ZnII with its precipitation as a hydroxide. Thus, theollowing procedure was used for the synthesis of the complexes:issolution of the pro-ligand in a methanol–water solution contain-

ng two equivalents of sodium (or potassium) hydroxide, followedy addition of ZnII chloride and concentration of the reaction mix-ure. The structure and the nuclearity of the studied ZnII–AHBDomplexes are dependent on the substituents in the �-diketonend aromatic parts of the AHBD ligands. 223–226 act as catalystsor the addition of nitroethane to various aldehydes producing theorresponding �-nitroalkanols (Henry reaction) in high yields andiastereoselectivities.

atom is seven-coordinated, and is in a single-cap triangular prismenvironment with three oxygen atoms from two �2-�2-OOCCH3units, two oxygen atoms from one chelating 50 and two oxygenatoms from two water molecules. Thus, in the solid state struc-ture of 229, linear [Cd(�2-50)(�2-�2-OOCCH3)(H2O)2]n chains arelinked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds forming a 2D sheet. These2D sheets pack each other through Van der Waals interactionsforming a 3D supramolecular structure.

Reaction of CdII acetate with 28 affords the mononuclear hepta-coordinate complex 230 (Scheme 45) [113], where the metalpositive charge is neutralized by two carboxylato groups. Thehydrazone moieties of the AHBD ligands are not involved in themetal coordination.

The most prominent intermolecular interaction in the crystalstructure appears to be of the type C H· · ·Cl which results in theformation of linear supramolecular chains aligned along the b-axis.The compound possesses an anti-bacterial activity.

Thecoordination sphere around each PbII is filled with four oxygenatoms from four bridging-acetates, two oxygen atoms from onechelating �2-monodeprotonated 50, and one oxygen from coordi-nated water. The thermal and fluorescent properties of 232 werealso investigated.

underlying net with the unprecedented topology defined by thepoint (Schläfli) symbol of (3.45.53.6)(32.46.53.64). Both networkspossess voids filled by crystallization water molecules, which canreversibly escape and bind back. Besides, 233 act as a catalyst

. Conclusions

The rich organic chemistry of AHMACs [14,25] makes themighly promising in the organic synthesis of compounds with inter-sting possible applications [22,23,80,151], namely related to theirigh propensity to tautomerism and isomerism [25–28].

With respect to coordination chemistry, AHMACs are valu-ble ligands for many metal ions allowing one to create differentonfined and overall geometries and structures. Thus, depend-ng on the position of a substituent and its nature and on the

etal ion, different types of coordination (Scheme 51) can bechieved. Many AHBD ligands form trivial mononuclear diligandomplexes (I) [53,88,99,113,123], but the introduction of, e.g., anydroxo substituent at the ortho position of the aromatic partllows one to yield mononuclear complexes with one ligatedHBD or binuclear diligand complexes (III and II, respectively)

31,51,52]. The ortho-OH group particularly favors the dimer for-ation, in comparison to other substituents in this position. For

xample, a carboxy or sulfo group in this position frequentlyeads to other types of coordination and overall structures (VI–XI)41,53,55,99–101,107,111,113,123,149,150]. On the other hand,he non-chelating carbonyl of the MAC fragment can further coor-inate to a metal-ion (IV) [31,52] and a coordination polymer cane formed. The position of the substituent in the aromatic partan drastically influence the geometry of the complexes (e.g., com-are V and VI). In addition, variation of the metal ions used forhe synthesis allows one to prepare complexes of different topolo-ies and coordination modes using the same ligand [113] (e.g., seeI–IV or VI–IX). Both nitrogen atoms of the former hydrazone groupan coordinate in one compound (X) [123], and, by using suitableunctional groups, one can prepare different coordination polymers53,101,105,123], including heterometallic ones (XI) [107].

In many cases the coordination sphere of the metal ions cane completed with labile (e.g., solvent) molecules. Complexes withquare planar, square pyramidal or octahedral geometries and withlanar tridentate ONO-coordination sites are more common, butxamples of other geometries and/or different NNO-, ONS-, OO- orO-coordination motifs also exist. The hydrazone hydrogen atomecomes labile upon complexation of the AHBD, with formationf a mono- or a dianionic deprotonated ligand. Whether a bases required for the deprotonation before coordination depends onhe metal ion used for the complex formation and other conditionscounter-ion, pH, etc.). For instance, FeIII can form complexes in aighly acidic medium (pH 2) [108], while complexes of, e.g., CoII,iII, and ZnII were not isolated even at pH 7. In these cases thero-ligand should first be deprotonated by base [54,55,110].

From another perspective, AHMACs and their complexesan create interesting supramolecular architectures involvingonomeric, oligomeric or polymeric units [31,51–53]. Differ-

nt nucleophiles have participated in this process via templatechiff base condensation or as proton attractors and spacers,hus allowing one to regulate the size of channels or cavitiesithin the H-bonded assemblies [14,52,53,55]. Hence, the AHMAC

omplexes can be used as promising building blocks in variousulti-component supramolecular architectures. Conformational

nd geometrical (tautomeric–isomeric) flexibilities of AHMACigands with protonated functional groups make them elegantuilding components for the construction of metal coordinationrameworks and organo-inorganic hybrid solids.

AHMAC complexes posses various biological activities [96,114],re promising agents for the blue-ray optical storage system152,153] and organic recording medium for the next-generation

D-DVD-R [57]. The CuII and FeIII complexes with ortho-hydroxy

ubstituted AHBD show catalytic activities for the peroxidativexidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone, forelective aerobic oxidation of benzyl alcohols to benzaldehydes in

aq. solution, mediated by TEMPO radical, under mild conditions,and for the microwave-assisted solvent-free synthesis of ketonesfrom secondary alcohols with tert-butylhydroperoxide as oxidant[51–53,108]. The ZnII-AHBD complexes are effective catalysts forthe addition of nitroethane to various aldehydes producing thecorresponding �-nitroalkanols in high yields and diastereoselec-tivities.

Therefore, AHMAC ligands show a high potential toward thecreation of new materials and multinuclear assemblies includingcoordination polymers, as well as in template synthesis and cataly-sis. However, AHMAC complexes have yet to be reported, or are stillvery rare, for many metal ions, thus further investigation shouldalso be directed to fill these gaps.
