Stability studies on 1:1 or 1:3 stoichiometry complexes of hexaza tripods with zinc(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II)

The coordination properties of two C₃-symmetry hexaza tripods, 1,3,5-tri(2,5-diazahexyl)benzene (L1) and 1,3,5-tri(2,5-diazaheptyl)benzene (L2), towards Zn²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Co²⁺ ions, studied by potentiometric techniques, are reported. Both ligands form quite stable complexes either in a 1:1 or 1:3 M:L stoichiometry, presenting a preferential coordination order: Zn²⁺ < Cu²⁺ > Ni²⁺ > Co²⁺. It is observed that the different configurations of metal complexes are achieved due to the fact that tripodal ligands are flexible and not constrained into a rigid geometry.     

Synthesis,Spectral, Thermal Studies of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II)‐arginato Complexes. Crystal Structure of Monoaquabis(arginato‐κO,κN)copper(II). [Cu(arg)2(H2O)].NaNO3

Transition metal complexes of arginine (using Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) cations separately) were synthesized and characterized by FTIR, TG/DTA‐DrTG, UV‐Vis spectroscopy and elemental analysis methods. Cu(II)‐Arg complex crystals was found suitable for x‐ray diffraction studies. It was contained, one mole Cu^II and Na⁺ ions, two arginate ligands, one coordinated aqua ligand and one solvent NO₃^? group in the asymmetric unit. The principle coordination sites of metal atom have been occupied by two N atoms of arginate ligands, two carboxylate O atoms, while the apical site was occupied by one O atom for Cu^II cation and two O atoms for Co^II, Ni^II, Zn^II atoms of aqua ligands. Although Cu^II ion adopts a square pyramidal geometry of the structure. Co^II, Ni^II, Zn^II cations have octahedral due to coordination number of these metals. Neighbouring chains were linked together to form a three‐dimensional network via hydrogen‐bonding between coordinated water molecule, amino atoms and O atoms of the bridging carboxylate groups. Cu^II complex was crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2₁, a = 8.4407(5) Å, b = 12.0976(5) Å, c = 10.2448(6) Å, V = 1041.03(10) ų, Z = 2. Structures of the other metal complexes were similar to CuII complex, because of their spectroscopic studies have in agreement with each other. Copper complex has shown DNA like helix chain structure. Lastly, anti‐bacterial, anti‐microbial and anti‐fungal biological activities of complexes were investigated.     

Monomeric dioxouranium(VI), chromium(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with primary cellulose acetate (PCA)

Monomeric UO ₂ ²⁺ , Cr^III, CO^II, Ni^II and Cu^II complexes with primary cellulose acetate (PCA) have been prepared and characterized. Infrared,¹H NMR, UV/visible spectroscopy, elemental analysis, therniogravimetry, conductance and magnetic measurements were used to assign the mode of coordination in the isolated species. The investigation revealed that PCA exhibits octahedral coordination with Cr^III, Co^II, Ni^II and a square planar form with Cu^II whereas the UO₂ moiety is virtually linear. PCA acts as a neutral bidentate chelating agent via the two oxygen atoms of the vicinal ester groups in the secondary positions forming a five-membered chelate ring. A comparative study between chelates of PCA and those previously prepared with secondary cellulose acetate (SCA) has been undertaken.     

Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of aminothiazole‐derived Schiff base ligands: Synthesis,characterization, antibacterial and cytotoxicity evaluation,bovine serum albumin binding and density functional theory studies

Transition metal complexes of type M(L)₂(H₂O)_x were synthesized, where L is deprotonated Schiff base 2,4‐dihalo‐6‐(substituted thiazol‐2‐ylimino)methylphenol derived from the condensation of aminothiazole or its derivatives with 2‐hydroxy‐3‐halobenzaldehyde and M = Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ (x = 0 for Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺; x = 2 for Co²⁺ and Ni²⁺). The synthesized Schiff bases and their metal complexes were thoroughly characterized using infrared, ¹H NMR, electronic and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies, elemental analysis, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The results reveal that the bidentate ligands form complexes having octahedral geometry around Co²⁺ and Ni²⁺ metal ions while the geometry around Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ metal ions is four‐coordinated. The geometries of newly synthesized Schiff bases and their metal complexes were fully optimized in Gaussian 09 using 6–31 + g(d,p) basis set. Fluorescence quenching data reveal that Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes bind more strongly to bovine serum albumin in comparison to Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes. The ligands and their complexes were evaluated for in vitro antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 (Gram negative) and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 (Gram positive) and cytotoxicity against lever hepatocellular cell line HepG2.     

1:1 Metal Complexes of Bivalent Cobalt,Nickel, Copper,Zink, and Cadmium with the Tripodal Ligand tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine: Their stabilities and the X-ray crystal structure of its copper(II) complex sulfate

The complex formation by Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ with tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine (N(CH₂CH₂NMe₂)₃, Me₆tren) was investigated at 25° and at an ionic strength of 1, using VIS spectroscopy and potentiometric measurements. The stability constants of these complexes are compared with those of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (N(CH₂CH₂NH₂)₃, tren), obtained under the same conditions. The values of the constants for Me₆tren are much lower than those for tren, due to the bulky Me substituents. The values of the constants can be correlated with the ability of the individual metal ions to adopt coordination number 5. This appears to be easier for Cu²⁺ and Co²⁺ than for Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺ and is very difficult for Ni²⁺. The 1:1 complexes [ML(H₂O)]²⁺ are monoprotonic acids whose pK_s values are similar or lower than those of the corresponding aquametal ions. The X-ray crystal structure of the copper(II) complex [Cu(SO₄)(Me₆tren)] · 8H₂O reveals pentacoordination at the central ion. The UV/VIS spectra of the aqueous solutions of the Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ 1:1 complexes confirm that the same coordination number is present also in these complexes.     

Complexes of 1-isonicotinoyl-4-benzoyl-3-thiosemicarbazide with manganese(II), iron(III), chromium(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II)

1-Isonicotinoyl-4-benzoyl-3-thiosemicarbazide (IBtsc) and its Cr^III, Mn^II, Fe^III, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II complexes have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, u.v.–vis., i.r., n.m.r. and FAB mass spectral data. The room temperature e.s.r. spectra of the Cr^III, Fe^III and Cu^II complexes yield values, characteristic of octahedral, tetrahedral and square-planar complexes, respectively. The Mössbauer spectra of [Fe(IBtsc-H)Cl₂] at room temperature and at 78 K suggest the presence of high-spin Fe^III. The Ni^II, Cr^III and Cu^II complexes show semiconducting behaviour in the solid state, but the Zn^II complex is an insulator at room temperature. IBtsc and its soluble complexes have been screened against several bacteria, fungi and tumour cell lines.     

Die Chelate von Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) und Cd(II) mit Malonsäurehydrazid und dessen Arylidenderivaten

The metal chelates formed by the reaction of Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ with malonic hydrazide and its arylidene derivatives are investigated. The i.r.-absorption spectra of the solid compounds supported the tetradentate character of these compounds; they also show that the ligand still attained the keto form. The shift of the C=O, C=N bands is utilized in determining the coordination bond length. The stoichiometry of the metal complexes, as studied by spectrophotometric and conductometric methods, is found to be metal ion: ligand =11. The apparent formation constants of the malonic hydrazide complexes are also determined.

Spectroscopic Characterization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N-bis</Emphasis>(2-{[(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-Dioxolan-4-yl)Methyl]Amino}Ethyl) N′,N′-Dihydroxyethanediimidamide and Its Complexes

A new dioxime ligand, N,N-bis(2-{[(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]amino} ethyl)N′,N′-dihydroxyethanediimidamide (H₂L), and its mononuclear complexes with Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ are synthesized. H₂L forms transition metal complexes [Co(LH)₂(H₂O)₂] and [M(LH)₂] (M = Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺) with a metal : ligand ratio of 1 : 2. Complexes [M(H₂L)(Cl)₂] (Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺) have a metal : ligand ratio of 1 : 1. The mononuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ complexes indicate that the metal ions coordinate ligand through its two N atoms, as the most of dioximes. In the Co²⁺ complex, two water molecules and in the Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ complexes two chloride ions are also coordinated to the metal ion. The structures of these compounds are identified by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, conductivity, and thermogravimetric analysis.__________From Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 7, 2005, pp. 540–544.Original English Text Copyright © 2005 by Canpolat, Kaya.The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Binuclear Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes with Schiff-bases derived from crown ether platforms: Rare examples of ether oxygen atoms bridging metal centers

Bibracchial lariat ethers L³ and L⁴, derived from the condensation of N,N′-bis(2-aminobenzyl)-1,10-diaza-15-crown-5 or N,N′-bis(2-aminobenzyl)-4,13-diaza-18-crown-6 with salicylaldehyde, form binuclear complexes with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II). Our studies show that the different denticity and crown moiety size of the two related receptors give rise to important differences on the structures of the corresponding complexes. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the [Ni₂(L³)(H₂O)₂]²⁺ and [Cu₂(L³)(NO₃)]⁺ complexes constitute a rare example in which an oxygen atom of the crown moiety is bridging the two six coordinate metal ions. In contrast, none of the oxygen atoms of the crown moiety is acting as a bridging donor atom in the [Co₂(L⁴)(CH₃CN)₂]²⁺, [Cu₂(L⁴)]²⁺ and [Zn₂(L⁴)]²⁺ complexes. This is attributed to the larger size the crown moiety and the higher denticity of L⁴ compared to L³. In [Co₂(L⁴)(CH₃CN)₂]²⁺ the metal ions show a distorted octahedral coordination, while in the Cu(II) and Zn(II) analogues the metal ions are five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment. In [Cu₂(L³)(NO₃)]⁺ the coordinated nitrate anion acts as a bidentate bridging ligand, which results in the formation of a 1D coordination polymer.     

N-Phthaloylglycinate ternary complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) metal ions and aromatic mono,bi and tridentate amines

Complexes of N-phthaloylglycinate (N-phthgly) and Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II and Cd^II containing imidazole (imi), N-methylimidazole (mimi), 2,2-bipyridyl (bipy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and tridentate amines such as 2,2,2-terpyridine (terpy) and 2,4,6-(2-pyridyl)s-triazine (tptz), were prepared and characterized by conventional methods, i.r. spectra and by thermogravimetric analysis. For imi and mimi ternary complexes, the general formula [M(imi/mimi)₂(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II applies. For Cd^II ternary complexes with imi, [Cd(imi)₃(N-phthgly)₂]·2H₂O applies. For the bi and tridentate ligands, ternary complexes of the formula [M(L)(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O were obtained, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II; L = bipy, phen, tptz and terpy. In all complexes, N-phthgly acts as a monodentate ligand, coordinating metal ions through the carboxylate oxygen, except for the ternary complexes of Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II with mimi and Cu^II and Zn^II with imi, where the N-phthgly acts as a bidentate ligand, coordinating the metal ions through both carboxylate oxygen atoms.     

Novel coordination compounds: Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) cations with acesulfame/N,N-diethylnicotinamide ligands

Abstract

Five coordination complexes with Mn²⁺ (1), Co²⁺ (2), Ni²⁺ (3), Cu²⁺ (4), and Zn²⁺ (5) containing acesulfame (ace) and N,N-diethylnicotinamide (dena) ligands were synthesized and structural binding properties investigated. Four compounds (1, 2, 4, and 5) were examined with single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The structures containing Mn(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) were iso-structural. Six-coordination of metal cations were completed with two moles dena and four aqua ligands. The dena ligands were coordinated via pyridine nitrogen as neutral-monodentate. Charge stabilities of the complexes are complemented by two moles monoanionic ace ligands, located outside of the coordination unit. In the Cu(II) complex, the coordination is completed by acidic nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen atoms of two ace ligands and pyridine nitrogen of two moles dena ligands. The coordination to Cu(II) for ace ligands was monoanionic-bidentate. All metal cations in the structure are distorted octahedral. Thermal decomposition of complexes begins with removal of the aqua molecules from the structures and is completed by combustion of organic ligands. The final decomposition products of all structures have been identified as corresponding metal oxides. Some biological applications (anti-fungal/anti-bacterial) were studied using 1–5.     

New Mononuclear and Binuclear Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) Thiosemicarbazone Complexes with Potential Biological Activity: Antimicrobial and Molecular Docking Study

Herein, we report the synthesis of eight new mononuclear and binuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺ methoxy thiosemicarbazone (MTSC) complexes aiming at obtaining thiosemicarbazone complex with potent biological activity. The structure of the MTSC ligand and its metal complexes was fully characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic techniques (NMR, FTIR, UV-Vis), molar conductivity, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), and thermal differential analysis (DrTGA). The spectral and analytical data revealed that the obtained thiosemicarbazone-metal complexes have octahedral geometry around the metal center, except for the Zn²⁺-thiosemicarbazone complexes, which showed a tetrahedral geometry. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the MTSC ligand and its (Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺) metal complexes were also investigated. Interestingly, the antibacterial activity of MTSC- metal complexes against examined bacteria was higher than that of the MTSC alone, which indicates that metal complexation improved the antibacterial activity of the parent ligand. Among different metal complexes, the MTSC- mono- and binuclear Cu²⁺ complexes showed significant antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis and Proteus vulgaris, better than that of the standard gentamycin drug. The in silico molecular docking study has revealed that the MTSC ligand could be a potential inhibitor for the oxidoreductase protein.     

Structural studies on cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes of 1-malonyl-bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazide)

Summary Several new complexes of the title ligand (H₂MPTS) with Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, and Cd^II have been prepared. Structural assignments of the complexes have been made based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic moment and spectral (i.r.,¹H n.m.r., reflectance) studies. The compounds are non-conductors in dimethylsulphoxide. The neutral molecule is coordinated to the metal(II) sulphate as a bidentate ligandvia the two carbonyl groups. The ligand reacts with the metal(II) chlorides with the liberation of two hydrogen ions, behaving as a bianionic quadridentate (NONO) donor. Enolization is confirmed by the pH-titration of H₂ MPTS and its metal(II) complexes against NaOH. A distorted octahedral structure is proposed for the Cu^II complex, while a square planar structure is suggested for both Co^II and Ni^II complexes. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed in EtOH and buffer solutions, their apparent formation constants and the ranges for obedience to Beer's law are reported for Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II ions. The ligand pK values are calculated. The antimicrobial activity of H₂ MPTS and its Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Mn^II complexes is demonstrated.     

Chelated complexes of cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), mercury(II), nickel(II), uranyl(II) and zinc(II) with benzil bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone)

Summary Complexes of Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II, Cd^II, Hg^II and UO ₂ ^II with benzil bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone), H₂BPT, have been synthesized and their structures assigned based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility and spectroscopic measurements. The i.r. spectra suggest that the ligand behaves as a binegative quadridentate (NSSN) (Co^II, Cu^II, Hg^II and UO ₂ ^II complexes) or as a binegative quadridentate-neutral bidentate chelating agent (Ni^II, Zn^II and Cd^II complexes). Octahedral structures for the Co^II and Ni^II complexes and square-planar structure for the Cu^II complex are suggested on the basis of magnetic and spectral evidence. The crystal field parameters (Dq, B and _B) for the Co^II complex are calculated and agree fairly well with the values reported for known octahedral complexes. The ligand can be used for the microdetermination of Ni^II ions of concentration in the 0.4–6×10^–4 mol l^–1 range and the apparent formation constant for the species generated in solution has also been calculated.     

ADDUCTS OF THEOBROMINE WITH 3d METAL PERCHLORATES

Abstract

Adducts of theobromine (tbH) with 3d metal perchlorates (Mⁿ⁺ = Cr^3-. Mn²⁺, Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn^2- I here prepared by refluxing mixtures of the Iigand and a metal salt in ethyl acetate-triethyl orthoformate. The new complexes invariably involve 2: 1 molar ratios of tbH to metal ion and are apparently monomeric with terminal tbH ligands binding riaa ring nitrogen (N9 or Nl). The Mn²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Zn^2- complexes are distorted tetrahedral, involving tuo tbH and two unidentate perchlorato ligands in the first coordination sphere of the metal ion. The remaining metal(II) complexes (Fe, Co, Ni) were obtained as monohydrates. These compounds are pentacoordinated of the [M(tbH)₂(OClO₃)₂(OH₂)] type, containing one aqua ligand in addition to the tbH and perchlorato ligands. The Cr³⁺ and Fe³⁺ complexes are low-symmetry hexacoordinated, with two tbH ligands. two unidentate and one bidentate chelating perchlorate Iigands.     

Sorption selectivity of cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) ions by KB-2E macroreticular carboxylic cation exchanger from aqueous-salt solutions of alkali metals

Sorption selectivity of copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions by KB-2E macroreticular carboxylic cation exchanger in the Na-form from dilute solutions was studied in the target concentration range (0.52.6) 103 M. The equilibrium distribution coefficients of Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ were calculated. The role played by hydration of ions in their sorption by KB-2E cation exchangers is analyzed with consideration for IR spectroscopic, thermal analysis, and scanning electron microscopic data.     

Synthesis,structure, and solvent-extraction properties of tridentate oxime ligands and their cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) complexes

Synthesis of four different types of ligands Ar[COC(NOH)R] _n (Ar = biphenyl, n = 1, HL¹; Ar = biphenyl, n = 2, H₂L²; Ar = diphenylmethane, n = 1, HL³; Ar = diphenylmethane, n = 2, H₂L⁴; R = furfurylamine in all ligands) and their dinuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺ complexes is reported herein. These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, ICP-OES, FT-IR spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The ligands were further characterized by ¹H NMR. The results suggest that dinuclear complexes of HL¹ and HL³ have a metal to ligand mole ratio of 2: 2 and dinuclear complexes H₂L² and H₂L⁴ have a metal to ligand mole ratio of 2: 1. Square pyramidal or octahedral structures are proposed for complexes of oxime ligands. Furthermore, extraction abilities of the four ligands were also evaluated in chloroform using selected transition metal picrates such as Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, Pb²⁺. The ligands show strong binding ability towards Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions.     

Reaction of cefalexine with manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) ions

The reaction of cefalexine anions (Cpx^?) with Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ ions in aqueous solution at 20°C and ionic strength 0.1 was studied by pH-metry. In weakly alkaline medium, unstable complexes MCpx⁺ and M(OH)Cpx are formed, in which Cpx^? behaves as a monodentate lidand coordinated through the amino group.     

Rational Construction of Polymeric Cadmium(II) Benzimidazole for Transition Metal Ion Exchange

A 1D double‐helical coordination polymer {[Cd(pbbm)₂]₂(ClO₄)₄(H₂O)₂}_n ( 1 ) was successfully constructed by the reaction of Cd(ClO₄)₂ · 6H₂O with 1,1′‐(1,5‐pentanediyl)bis‐1H‐benzimidazole (pbbm). Interestingly, polymer 1 exhibits highly selective capacity for the ionic exchange of Zn²⁺ and Cu²⁺ over Co²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions in the crystalline solid state when the crystals of 1 are immersed in the aqueous solutions of the perchlorate salts of Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Co²⁺, and Ni²⁺ ions, respectively, which indicates that central Cd^II ion exchange might be considered as being dominated by the coordination ability of metal ions to free functional groups, ionic radii of exchanged metal ions, and the solution concentration of adsorbed metal salts. The parent material‐ and ion‐exchange‐induced products are identified by FT‐IR spectroscopy, PXRD patterns as well as SEM and EDS measurements. In addition, the thermal stability of 1 was also investigated.     

Synthesis and study of cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) complexes with 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole

New complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) nitrates, chlorides, and perchlorates with 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole (L) were obtained and examined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, X-ray powder diffraction, and electronic absorption and IR spectroscopy. The cations of all the complexes have linear trinuclear structures. Ligand L is coordinated to the metal ions in a bidentate bridging fashion through the N(1) and N(2) atoms of the heterocycle. The coordination polyhedron of the metal atoms is a distorted octahedron. The molecular and crystal structures of the complexes [Co₃L₆(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₆ · 3C₂H₅OH · 3.75H₂O and [M₃L₆(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₆ · 6H₂O (M = Cu²⁺ and Ni²⁺) were determined.
