No. The Missouri Compromise happened in 1820, long after his death in 1790.
The Missouri Compromise was nullified by the new Compromise of 1850 - caused by the admission of California, which extended a long way on either side of the Missouri line, and rendered it obsolete.
The significance of the 1820 Missouri Compromise is it probably delayed the War Between the States by 40 years.During this 40 year period, the northern "union" states grew in population, infrastructure, manufacturing and technology. This period allowed the north an advantage in preserving the union.Hypothetically, the outcome of the war could have been very different had it been waged in the 1820 era, when the south had a closer parity with the north, and the United States could well be two countries today.see missouri-compromise-of-1820==It delayed the Civil War long enough that the young nation was strong enough to withstand the shock, instead of disintegrating.
The compromise of 1850 revisits the long time argument concerning which states should be free and which states should be able to have slaves. Prior to that (and the Kansas Nebraska Act) the Missouri Compromise of 1820 had established a sort of line to divide all the slave states from the free. The Kansas Nebraska act had undone all the effort put into the Missouri Compromise and it allowed for attention so shift back to the issue of slavery. The Missouri Compromise had basically delayed that issue and the Kansas Nebraska Act and The Compromise of 1850 touched up on an increasingly sensitive topic which fuels the first sparks which lead to the Civil War.
The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 created the territories of Kansas and Nebraska, opened new lands, repealed the Missouri Compromise of 1820, and allowed settlers in those territories to determine if

That was the Crittenden Compromise, which tried to restore the line of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had kept the peace for so long. Lincoln rejected it because it would have allowed the possibility of new slave-states.
The Misouri Compromise of 1820 delayed the Civil War for a generation. It was undone by the Compromise of 1850, and barely ten years after the end of the Missouri Compromise disunion and war came.

The Missouri Compromise of 1820 can be seen as a temporary win for both pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions. It allowed Missouri to enter the Union as a slave state while Maine entered as a free state, maintaining the balance of power in Congress. However, the compromise ultimately failed to resolve the underlying tensions over slavery, which would resurface more intensely in the following decades, indicating that neither side truly emerged victorious in the long term.

John Quincy Adams convinced Congress to sign or pass the Missouri Compromise
Thomas Jefferson had a hand in politics long after his terms as US president ended. In 1820, the Missouri Compromise was being "hammered out' and Jefferson had ideas concerning the Compromise and the ending of slavery. He believed the nation could endure all economic consequences of abolishing slavery. His condition for ending slavery and to avoid all the political and social strife this would cause, meant the colonization of the freed slaves.
The biggest problem was that Missouri wanted to be admitted as a slave state, upsetting the "balance of power" between free and slave states. The Missouri Compromise admitted Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state to maintain the balance, and also specified that no new slave states would be admitted north of the southern border of (most of) Missouri ... the southeastern corner of Missouri dips down into the "slave state" region. As you might expect if you knew anything about the politics of the time, this new rule lasted almost long enough for the ink to dry before people started contesting it.
Texas did enter the Union as a slave state. This is why it took so long between the time the Union told Texas they could become a state and the time Texas actually became a state. The debate went on about this in Congress for four years.
The Missouri Compromise of 1820 had significant long-term effects on the United States, primarily by highlighting and deepening the sectional divide between the North and South over the issue of slavery. It established a precedent for the admission of states in pairs, balancing slave and free states, which temporarily eased tensions but ultimately proved unsustainable. The compromise also set the stage for future conflicts, such as the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the Dred Scott decision, contributing to the rise of sectionalism and paving the way for the Civil War. Overall, it marked a critical moment in the struggle over slavery that would shape the nation's political landscape for decades.
