SYNTHESIS,PROPERTIES AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF RARE EARTH COMPLEXES OF 5-FLUOROURACIL-1-PROPIONIC ACID

Abstract

Seven new solid complexes of 5-fluorouracil-1-propionic acid with rare earth metals have been synthesized. Elemental analyses, molar conductance, TG-DTA, IR, UV-Vis, fluorescence, XPS and ¹H NMR spectra have been used to characterize these complexes. The general formula of the complexes is RE(FPA)₃. nH₂O where RE = Y(III), La(III), Pr(III), Sm(III), Eu(III), Dy(III), Er(III); n=3 or 5. Prooxidative and antitumor activity of these complexes was tested. The results showed that these complexes augment free radical generation; especially the Pr³+ complex which obviously increased the O₂ ^? and OH^? radicals. It was also found that La³+ and Y³+ complexes possess antitumor effects on human colon bladder HCT-B and human leukemia HL-60 cells in vitro.     

Preparation of photoluminescent compounds of Eu(III), Sm(III), and Dy(III) containing anions of tetrafluoroterephthalic acid

The Ln₂(H₂O)₄(L)₃·2H₂O and Ln₂(phen)₂(L)₃·2H₂O complexes [Ln = Eu(III), Sm(III), or Dy(III); H₂L = C₆F₄(COOH)₂, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline] have been prepared. Structures of the prepared compounds have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy studies. The complexes of Eu(III) have exhibited red photoluminescence stronger than that of the complexes of Sm(III) and Dy(III).

Assembly, crystal structure, and luminescent properties of three-dimensional (10,3)-a netted rare earth coordination polymers

Solid complexes [REL(NO3)3]n with novel (10,3)-a type three-dimensional networks structure have been assembled using rare earth nitrates and an amide type semirigid tripodal bridging ligand, 1,3,5-tris {[(2′-benzylaminoformyl)phenoxyl]methyl}benzene (L), as building blocks. The complexes were crys- tallized in the orthorhombic system with chiral space group P212121. The whole structure consists of an infinite array of trigonal RE(III) ions bridged by tridentate ligands, and a novel (10,3)-a net is formed, which is very uncommon in the rare earth complexes. At room temperature, the Sm(III), Eu(III), Tb(III), Dy(III) complexes all exhibited characteristic luminescence emissions of central metal ions under UV light excitation.     

Determination of combustion energies and the standard enthalpies of formation for the complexes of RE(Et2dtc)3(phen)

Solid complexes, RE(Et₂dtc)₃(phen) (RE=La, Pr, Nd, Sm—Lu), were synthesized with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaEt₂dtc3H₂O), 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen•H₂O) and hydrated lanthanide chlorides in absolute ethanol. The constant-volume combustion energies of complexes, Δ _C U, were determined by a precise rotating-bomb calorimeter at 298.15 K. The standard enthalpies of combustion, Δ_CH_m ^θ, and standard enthalpies of formation, Δ_fH_m ^θ, were calculated for these complexes, respectively. The experiment results showed the “tripartite effect” of rare earth.

     

Lanthanide(III) Nitrate Complexes of Two 17 Membered N3O2-Donor Macrocycles

The interaction of lanthanide(III) ions with two N₃O₃-macrocycles, L¹ and L², derived from 2,6-bis(2-formylphenoxymethyl)pyridine and 1,2-diaminoethane has been investigated. Schiff-base macrocyclic lanthanide(III) complexes LnL¹(NO₃)₃ · xH₂O (Ln = Nd, Sm, Eu or Lu) have been prepared by direct reaction of L¹ and the appropriate hydrated lanthanide nitrate. The direct reaction between the diamine macrocycle L² and the hydrated lanthanide(III) nitrates yields complexes LnL²(NO₃)₃· H₂O only for Ln = Dy or Lu. The reduction of the Schiff-base macrocycle decreases the complexation capacity of the ligand towards the Ln(III) ions. The complexes have been characterised by elemental analysis, molar conductivity data, FAB mass spectrometry, IR and, in the case of the lutetium complexes, ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis,Characterization, Antimicrobial Activities,and Structural Studies of Lanthanide (III) Complexes with 1-(4-Chlorophenyl)-3-(4-fluoro/hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-thiosemicarbazone

Twelve coordinate lanthanide (III) complexes with the general composition [Ln L₃X_n(H₂O)_n] where Ln = Pr(III), Sm(III), Eu (III), Gd (III), Tb (III), Dy (III), X = Cl^?1, NO₃ ^?2, n = 2–7, and L is 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-fluoro/hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1- thiosemicarbazone have been prepared. The lanthanide complexes (5) were derived from the reaction between 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-fluoro/hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-thiosemicarbazone (4) with an aqueous solution of lanthanide salt. Chalcone thiosemicarbazone ligand (4) was prepared by the reaction of [1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-fluoro/hydroxyphenyl)]prop-2-enone (chalcone) (3) with thiosemicarbazide in the presence of hot ethanol. All the lanthanide-ligand 1:3 complexes have been isolated in the solid state, are stable in air, and characterized on the basis of their elemental and spectral data.

Thiosemicarbazone ligands behave as bidentate ligands by coordinating through the sulfur of the isocyanide group and nitrogen of the cyanide residue. The probable structure for all the lanthanide complexes is also proposed. The chalcone thiosemicarbazone ligands and their lanthanide complexes have been screened for their antifungal and antibacterial studies. Some of the synthesized lanthanide complexes have shown enhanced activity compared with that of the free ligand.

Trigonal (-3) symmetry octahedral lanthanide(III) complexes of zwitterionic tripodal ligands: luminescence and magnetism

Sandwich coordination complexes, [Ln^III(H₃L)₂]X₃?solvents, of Tb(III), Eu(III), Dy(III), Ho(III) and Er(III) were prepared with two new zwitterionic ester-substituted tripodal amine ligands, tris((2-hydroxy-5-n-butyl benzoate)aminoethyl)-amine (H₃L¹) and tris((2-hydroxy-5-methyl benzoate)aminoethyl)-amine (H₃L²). These ligands were synthesised by condensation of the appropriately substituted salicylaldehyde with tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) followed by in situ reduction of the tris-imine to tris-amine. Subsequent 2:1 reaction with lanthanide(III) ions yields [Ln^III(H₃L)₂]X₃?solvents (L = L¹, L²; X = Cl^?, NO₃^?; solvents = MeOH or H₂O). All complexes were characterised by microanalysis, infrared spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry and solid-state photoluminescence measurements. The crystal structures of [Tb^III(H₃L¹)₂]Cl₃·6MeOH, [Dy(H₃L¹)₂]Cl₃·6MeOH, [Eu^III(H₃L¹)₂]Cl₃·6MeOH and [Tb^III(H₃L¹)₂](NO₃)₃ reveal high-crystallographic ?3 symmetry at the O₆-coordinated octahedral lanthanide(III) ions and that the tripodal ligands are bound in zwitterionic form: the protons from the phenolic oxygens have migrated to the amino nitrogens. Photoluminescence measurements indicate various degrees of energy transfer of the ligand chromophore to the lanthanide ions, as both ligand and lanthanide emission features are observed. Despite the high-crystallographic symmetry and the likely small transverse magnetic anisotropy of the complexes, no evidence of slow relaxation of the magnetisation, characteristic of a single-molecule magnet, was observed for [Tb^III(H₃L¹)₂]Cl₃·MeOH·3H₂O, [Dy^III(H₃L¹)₂]Cl₃·6H₂O, [Ho^III(H₃L¹)₂](NO₃)₃·2H₂O, [Er^III(H₃L¹)₂]·H₂O and [Tb^III(H₃L¹)₂](NO₃)₃ down to 2.0 K.     

Ternary complexes of neodymium(III) and samarium(III) picrate triethylene glycol: structural, spectroscopic, and photoluminescent properties

The ternary complexation of neodymium(III) and samarium(III) with triethylene glycol (EO3) and picrate anion (Pic) were characterized by elemental analyses, FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared) spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence (PL). Both the [Nd(Pic)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)(EO3)](Pic) and [Sm(Pic)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)(EO3)](Pic)·H₂O complexes were isostructural with a ten-coordination number. In both complexes, the picrate and nitrate anions were coordinated to Ln(III) in a bidentate manner, and with the the EO3 ligand in a tetradentate manner, the addition of two water molecules maintained a ten-coordination number. The lighter lanthanide-picrate complexes formed a ten-coordination number due to the lanthanide contraction effect, acyclic polyether chain length, and number of donor oxygen atoms. The acyclic EO3 ligand affected photoluminescent intensity and its conformation on the structure of the [Ln(Pic)(NO₃)(H₂O)₂(EO3)]⁺ moiety. Photoluminescent measurement showed complex Nd(III) emissions at 403, 486, and 682?nm, with the strongest emission peak at 403?nm. Formation of these peaks occurred due to the intraligand π–π transitions of the Pic anion. The Sm(III) complex exhibited the emission characteristic of the Sm(III) ion in the red spectral region at 616.7?nm (⁴G_5/2 → ⁶H_9/2 transition), even though the ligand emissions were also observed in the PL spectrum. The emission intensity of the 4f–4f transitions in the Sm complex was significantly higher than that found in its salt. We noted that the [Sm(Pic)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)(EO3)](Pic)·H₂O complex was an excellent red-light-emitter and would be considered as a candidate material for organic light emitting diodes.     

Complexes of N-(2 Hydroxy-1-Naphthalidene) Antharanilic Acid with Some Lanthanides

The complexes of N-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthalidene)anthranilic acid abbreviated (H₂NA) with some trivalent rare earth elements (Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er and Yb) were prepared. The complexes were characterized by chemical and thermal analysis, ir and conductimetric methods. Two types of ionic complexes; Ln(HNA)₂OH·2H₂O with Dy, Er and Yb, and Ln(HNA)₂OH with Pr, Nd, Sm and Gd were isolated. Coordination of the ligand with metal-ions occurs through the carboxy group and the nitrogen atom. The acid dissociation constants K₁ and K₂ of H₂NA and the overall stability constants β₁ and β₂ of some lanthanide complexes in 75% (v/v) dioxan-water solutions were determined by the potentiometric method.     

Studies on mixed ligand complexes of samarium(III), europium(III) and dysprosium(III) with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol and trioctylphosphine oxide

The extraction behavior of Sm(III), Eu(III) and Dy(III) with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol (HA) and trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) in methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) from aqueous NaClO₄ solutions in the pH range 4–9 at 0.1M ionic strength has been studied. The equilibrium concentrations of Sm and Dy were measured using their short-lived neutron activation products,¹⁵⁵Sm and^165mDy, respectively. In the case of Eu, the concentrations were assayed through the^152,154Eu radiotracer. The distribution ratios of these elements were determined as a function of pH, 1-nitroso-2-naphthol and TOPO concentrations. The extractions of Sm, Eu and Dy were found to be quantitative with MIBK solutions in the pH range 5.9–7.5, 5.6–7.5 and 5.8–7.5, respectively. Quantitative extraction of Eu was also obtained between pH 5.8 and 8.8 with chloroform solutions. The results show that these lanthanides (Ln) are extracted as LnA₃ chelates with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol alone, and in the presence of TOPO as LnA₃(TOPO) and LnA₃(TOPO)₂ adducts. The extraction constants and the adduct formation constants of these complexes have been calculated.     

Synthesis,structure, and photophysical property of series of Ln(III) coordination polymers with different carboxylato ligands (Ln = Sm,Eu)

Four Ln(III) coordination polymers, {[Ln₂(1,3-bdc)₃(H₂O)₄]·DMF·H₂O} _n (Ln = Sm 1, Eu 2) and [Ln₂(mal)₃(H₂O)₆] _n (Ln = Sm 3, Eu 4) (1,3-H₂bdc = isophthalate acid, H₂mal = malonate acid), were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, IR spectra, UV–Vis–NIR absorption spectra, and fluorescence spectra. The structural analyses reveal that polymer 1 is a 3D coordination polymer. Its asymmetry unit contains two crystallographically independent Sm(III) ions, both are eight-coordinated. The 1,3-bdc^2? anions show three different coordination modes. The structure of polymer 2 is isomorphous with that of 1. Polymer 3 is also a 3D coordination polymer, its asymmetry unit contains one Sm(III) ion, which is nine-coordinate. The mal^2? anions have two different coordination modes. The structure of polymer 4 is isomorphous with that of 3. The luminescent study shows that polymers 1, 2, and 4 exhibit characteristic emission bands in the visible region, corresponding to the transitions of the Ln(III) ions. By comparison and analysis of luminescence, it is found that the incidence of the same ligand on the corresponding spectra of different Ln(III) ions is different, and the influence of different ligands on luminescence of the same Ln(III) ion is also very different.

     

Two lanthanide coordination polymers with one-dimensional chain structure constructed from 2,2′-diphenyldicarboxylate

Two lanthanide coordination polymers, [Ln₂(dpdc)₃(H₂O)₂] _n (Ln = Sm 1, Dy 2; dpdc = 2,2′-diphenyldicarboxylate) were prepared by hydrothermal reaction and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, fluorescence spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray studies indicate that the two complexes are isostructural, with two different lanthanide ion nodes linked by dpdc ligands into an infinite one-dimensional chain structure, in which dpdc ligands are bidentate-bridging/bidentate-bridging and bidentate-bridging/chelate-bridging. Complexes 1 and 2 exhibit luminescent characteristics of Sm(III) and Dy(III) ions, respectively.     

Determination of combustion energies and the standard enthalpies of formation for the complexes of RE(Et<Subscript>2</Subscript>dtc)<Subscript>3</Subscript>(phen)

Solid complexes, RE(Et₂dtc)₃(phen) (RE=La, Pr, Nd, Sm—Lu), were synthesized with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaEt₂dtc3H₂O), 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen?H₂O) and hydrated lanthanide chlorides in absolute ethanol. The constant-volume combustion energies of complexes, Δ _C U, were determined by a precise rotating-bomb calorimeter at 298.15 K. The standard enthalpies of combustion, Δ_CH_m ^θ, and standard enthalpies of formation, Δ_fH_m ^θ, were calculated for these complexes, respectively. The experiment results showed the “tripartite effect” of rare earth.     

Effects of Zinc(II) on the Luminescence of Europium(III) in Complexes Containing β‐Diketone and Schiff Bases

The UV, excitation, and luminescence spectra of tris(pivaloyltrifluoroacetonato)europium(III) ([Eu(pta)₃]; Hpta=1,1,1‐trifluoro‐5,5‐dimethylhexane‐2,4‐dione=HA) were measured in the presence of bis(salicylidene)trimethylenediamine (H₂saltn), bis[5‐(tert‐butyl)salicylidene]trimethylenediamine (H₂(^tBu)saltn), or bis(salicylidene)cyclohexane‐1,2‐diyldiamine (H₂salchn), and the corresponding Zn^II complexes [ZnB] (B=Schiff base). The excitation and luminescence spectra of the solution containing [Eu(pta)₃] and [Zn(salchn)] exhibited much stronger intensities than those of solutions containing the other [ZnB] complexes. The introduction of a ^tBu group into the Schiff base was not effective in sensitizing the luminescence of [Eu(pta)₃]. The luminescence spectrum of [ZnB] showed a band around 450 nm. The intensity decreased in the presence of [Eu(pta)₃], reflecting complexation between [Eu(pta)₃] and [ZnB]. On the basis of the change in intensity against the concentration of [ZnB], stability constants were determined for [Eu(pta)₃Zn(saltn)], [Eu(pta)₃Zn{(^tBu)saltn}], and [Eu(pta)₃Zn(salchn)] as 4.13, 4.9 and 5.56, respectively (log , where =[[Eu(pta)₃ZnB]]([[Eu(pta)₃]][[ZnB]])^?1). The quantum yields of these binuclear complexes were determined as 0.15, 0.11, and 0.035, although [Eu(pta)₃Zn(salchn)] revealed the strongest luminescence at 613 nm. The results of X‐ray diffraction analysis for [Eu(pta)₃Zn(saltn)] showed that Zn^II had a coordination number of five and was bridged with Eu^III by three donor O‐atoms, i.e., two from the salicylidene moieties and one from the ketonato group pta.     

含联吡啶，Eu(III)或Gd(III)的手性高分子配合物的合成及荧光性质研究

手性高分子P–1由(R)-5,5′-二溴-6,6′-二(4-三氟甲基苯基)-2,2′-二正辛氧基-1,1′-联萘(R–M–1)和5,5′-二乙烯基-2,2′-联吡啶(M–2)通过Pd催化的Heck偶合反应合成得到,高分子配合物P-2和P-3由高分子P-1与Eu(TTA)3·2H2O和Gd(TTA)3·2H2O (TTA– = 2-噻吩甲酰三氟丙酮)反应生成。手性高分子P-1能发射强的蓝色荧光,这是由于手性重复单元(R)-6,6′-二(4-三氟甲基苯基)-2,2′-二正辛氧基-1,1′-联萘和单元2,2′-联吡啶通过亚乙烯基桥连形成共轭高分子结构造成的。在不同的激发波长激发下,含Eu(III)的高分子配合物P–2不仅显示高分子荧光,还可显示Eu(III) (5D0→7F2)特征荧光。含Gd(III)的高分子配合物P–3仅发射高分子荧光。基于高分子及含RE(III)的高分子配合物的荧光性质研究发现,共轭高分子并没有把能量转移到Eu(III)或Gd(III) 配合物部分,只发射它自身的荧光,含Eu(III)的高分子配合物P–2发射Eu(III) (5D0→7F2)特征荧光能量主要来源于配阴离子TTA–。     

Thermochemical properties of RE (Gly)4 Im (ClO4) 3 2H2O (RE = La,Pr, Nd,Sm, Eu)

The enthalpies of solution in water for five new light rare earth ternary complexes RE(Gly)₄Im(ClO₄)₃ 2H₂O (RE = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu; Gly‐glycine; Im‐imidazole) were measured by means of a Calvet microcalorimeter. The empirical formula of enthalpy of solution (Δ_solH), relative apparent molar enthalpy (πL_i), relative partial molar enthalpy (L_i) and enthalpy of dilution (Δ_dllH_1,2) were drawn up by the data of enthalpies of solution of these complexes. From three plots of the values of standard enthalpy of solution Δ_sol H?, πL_i, L_i) versus the values of ionic radius (r) of the light rare earth elements, the grouping effect of lanthanide was observed, showing that the coordination bond between rare earth ion and ligand possesses a certain extent of the property of a covalent bond. The standard enthalpies of solution in water of similar complexes, Ce(Gly)₄Im(ClO₄)₃.2H₂O were estimated according to the plot of Δ_solH?, versus r.     

Studies on Polarographic Adsorptive Wave of the System of the Rare Earth (III)-Copper(Ii)-M-Trifluomethyl Chlorophosphonazo

Abstract

A new heteronuclear complex, rare earth (III)-copper (II)-m-trifluomethyl chlorophosphonazo (CPA-mCF₃) system for determining trace rare earth ions is presented. In a medium of 0.02mol/L NH₄Cl,1. 0×10^?3mol/L Cu(II),1.0×10^?5 mol/L CPA-mCF₃, a very sensitive polarographic adsorptive wave is observed by using a single sweep oscillopolarograph at about –0.83V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The linear relationship between the peak current and the concentration of rare earth exists from 6. 0×10^?9 to 1. 0×10^?6 mol/L. The detection limit of rare earth is down to 2. 0×10^?9 mol/L for Tm³⁺. This method has been applied to determine trace RE in several samples of Chinese tea. The results are satisfactory. The composition of the complex is detected as RE (II): Cu (II): CPA-mCF₃ = 1: 1: 2.     

4-Chloro-2-methoxybenzoates of heavy lanthanides(III) and yttrium(III)

4-Chloro-2-methoxybenzoates of heavy lanthanides(III) and yttrium(III) were obtained as mono-, di-, tri-or tetrahydrates with metal to ligand ratio of 1:3 and general formula Ln(C₈H₆ClO₃)₃·nH₂O, where n=1 for Ln=Er, n=2 for Ln=Tb, Dy, Tm, Y, n=3 for Ln=Ho and n=4 for Yb and Lu. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectra, TG, DTA and DSC curves, X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The carboxylate group appears to be a symmetrical bidentate chelating ligand. All complexes are polycrystalline compounds. The values of enthalpy, ΔH, of the dehydration process for analysed complexes were also determined. The solubilities of heavy lanthanide(III) 4-chloro-2-methoxybenzoates in water at 293 K are of the order of 10⁻⁴ mol dm⁻³. The magnetic moments were determined over the range of 76–303 K. The results indicate that there is no influence of the ligand field of 4f electrons on lanthanide ions and the metal ligand bonding is mainly electrostatic in nature.     

A Novel Architecture of a Heptadentate Macroacyclic 2,6-Bis [(3-methoxy salicylidene) Hydrazino carbonyl] Pyridine Towards Lanthanides: A Synthetic and Structural Studies of Dinuclear Lanthanide (III) Complexes

Reaction of Ln(NO₃)₃ with 2,6-bis[(3-methoxysalicylidene)hydrazino carbonyl]pyridine (BMSPD) afforded binuclear complexes of the type [Ln₂(BMSPD)(NO₃)₂(H₂O)₅]·3H₂O in case of La(III), Pr(III), Nd(III), Sm(III), Eu(III), Gd(III), Tb(III) and Dy(III), and [Ln₂(BMSPD)(NO₃)₂(H₂O)₅] in case of Y(III). The mode of coordination of ligand and the conformational changes on complexation with lanthanides was studied based on elemental analysis, magnetic studies, TG/DTA, IR, ¹H-NMR, Electronic, EPR and Fluorescence spectral studies. The ligand coordinates to one metal centre through enolized deprotonated carbonyls and pyridine nitrogen whereas doubly deprotonated phenolate oxygens and two hydrazonic nitrogens ligate to another lanthanide centre. Both the metal ions are in eight-coordination environments. The ligand and complexes were further tested for antifungal and antibacterial activities.
