Theoretical study of interaction of 2,6-dithiopurine with Li+, Na+, K+, Be2+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ metal cations

The geometries of the complexes of Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Be²⁺, Mg²⁺, and Ca²⁺ metal cations with different possible 2,6-dithiopurine anions (DTP) were studied. The complexes were optimized at the B3LYP level and the 6-311++G(d, p) basis set. The interactions of the metal cations at different nucleophilic sites of various possible 2,6-dithiopurine anions were considered. It was revealed that metal cations would interact with 2,6-dithiopurine anions in a bicoordinate manner. In the gas phase, the most preferred position for the interaction of Li⁺, Na⁺, and K⁺ cations is between the N₃ and S₂ sites, while all divalent cations Be²⁺, Mg²⁺, and Ca²⁺ prefer binding between the N₇ and S₆ sites of the corresponding 2,6-dithiopurine. The influence of aqueous solvent on the relative stability of different complexes has been examined using the Tomasi’s polarized continuum model. The basis set superposition error (BSSE) corrected interaction energy was also computed for complexes. The AIM theory has been applied to analyze the properties of the bond critical points (electron densities and their Laplacians) involved in the coordination between 2,6-dithiopurine anions and the metal cations. It was revealed that aqueous solution would have significant effect on the relative stability of complexes obtained by the interaction of 2,6-dithiopurine anions with Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺ cations. The effect of metal cations on different NH and CS stretching vibrational modes of 2,6-dithiopurine has also been discussed.     

Conductometric studies of the thermodynamics complexation of Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+, and Ba2+ ions with 4′,4″(5″)-Di-tert-butyldibenzo-18-crown-6 ligand in acetonitrile, ethanol and methanol solutions

The complexation reaction between 4′,4″(5″)-di-tert-butyldibenzo-18-crown-6, ligand and Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺, and Ba²⁺ ions were studied conductometrically in acetonitrile, ethanol, and methanol solutions. The formation constants of the 1:1 and 2:1 complexes (metal to ligand) were calculated from the computer fitting of the molar conductance in various mole ratios at 10, 20, 30, and 40 °C. The enthalpy and entropy changes of the complexation reactions in acetonitrile, ethanol, and methanol were estimated at four different temperatures.

A Thermodynamic Study Between 18-Crown-6 with Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+and Ba2+ Cations in Water–Methanol and Water–Ethanol Binary Mixtures Using The Conductometric Method

The complexation reactions between Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ cations with the macrocyclic ligand, 18-Crown-6 (l8C6) in water–methanol (MeOH) binary systems as well as the complexation reactions between Ca²⁺ and Sr²⁺ cations with 18C6 in water–ethanol (EtOH) binary mixtures have been studied at different temperatures using conductometric method. The conductance data show that the stoichiometry of all the complexes is 1:1. It was found that the stability of 18C6 complexes with Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ cations is sensitive to solvent composition and in all cases, a non-linear behaviour was observed for the variation of log K _f of the complexes versus the composition of the mixed solvents. In some cases, the stability order is changed with changing the composition of the mixed solvents. The selectivity order of 18C6 for the metal cations in pure methanol is: Ba²⁺ > Sr²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Mg²⁺. The values of thermodynamic parameters (Δ H _c ° and Δ S _c °) for formation of 18C6–Mg²⁺, 18C6–Ca²⁺, 18C6–Sr²⁺ and 18C6–Ba²⁺complexes were obtained from temperature dependence of the stability constants. The obtained results show that the values of (Δ H _c ° and Δ S _c °) for formation of these complexes are quite sensitive to the nature and composition of the mixed solvent, but they do not vary monotonically with the solvent composition.This revised version was published online in July 2005 with a corrected issue number.     

NMR study of the stoichiometry and stability of complexation reaction between Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+ and Ba2+ ions and 60-crown-20 in binary acetonitrile solvent mixtures

Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR) spectroscopy was used to study the complexation reaction between Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ ions and 60-crown-20 in a series of binary mixtures of deuterated acetonitrile (AN), nitromethane (NM) and D₂O at 27?°C. Formation constants of the 1:1 complexes were determined through computer fitting of the chemical shift/mol ratio data and found to vary in the order of Ba²⁺?>?Sr²⁺?>?Mg²⁺?≈?Ca²⁺. The influence of the solvent composition on the stability of the resulting complexes was also discussed. In all cases, the changes in the stability constants with the solvent composition were monotonic and showed a good correlation with the inherent solvation ability of the pure solvents which form the mixture.     

Complexation of Ba2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, and UO22+ Ions with 18-Crown-6 and Dicyclohexyl-18-Crown-6 in Nitromethane and Acetonitrile Solutions by a Competitive NMR Technique Using the 7Li Nucleus as a Probe

[⁷Li] NMR measurements were used to determine the stoichiometry and stability of Li⁺ complexes with 18-crown-6 and dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 in nitromethane and acetonitrile solutions. A competitive [⁷Li] NMR technique was also employed to probe the complexation of Ba²⁺, Pb²⁺, Cd²⁺, and UO₂²⁺ ions with the same crown ethers–solvent systems. All the resulting 1 : 1 complexes were more stable in nitromethane than acetonitrile solution. In all cases, the stability of both crown complexes in nitromethane and acetonitrile varied in the order Pb²⁺ > Ba²⁺ > Li⁺ > Cd²⁺ > UO₂²⁺.     

Theoretical study on the interaction of glutathione with group IA (Li+, Na+, K+), IIA (Be2+, Mg2+, Ca2+), and IIIA (Al3+) metal cations

The structures and energies of complexes obtained upon interaction between glutathione (GSH) and alkali (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺), or alkaline earth metal (Be²⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺), or group IIIA (Al³⁺) cations were studied using quantum chemical density functional theory. The characteristics of the interactions between GSH and the metal cations at different nucleophilic sites of GSH were examined selecting systematically, both mono- and multi-coordinating were taken into account. The results indicated that the heteroatom of GSH, the radius and charge of metal ion, and the coordination number of the metal cation with the ligand played important roles in determining the stability of these complexes. Moreover, the intramolecular hydrogen migration in GSH could be promoted by the metal cations during coordination reaction. Furthermore, the Al³⁺ cation might catalyze the decarboxylation reaction and stimulate the formation of covalent bond between S atom and adjacent O atom of GSH.     

Die Selektivität Kristalliner Cer(IV)-Phosphatsulfathydrate gegenüber Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, Cs+ und NH in absolutem Methanol und absolutem Dimethylsulfoxid

Selectivity of Crystalline Ce^IV Phosphate Sulphate Hydrates for Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺, and NH in Absolute Methanol and Absolute Dimethylsulphoxide The sequence of exchange capacities of Cerium(IV) phosphate sulphate hydrate (CePO₄)₂(HPO₄)_0.74(SO₄)_0.26 · 4,74 H₂O for alkalimetal ions and ammoniumions in absolute methanol at 25°C for the case of a small excess of the exchanger (in relation to the equivalent amount) is given by K⁺ > Rb⁺ ≥ NH₄⁺ > Cs⁺ > Na⁺ > Li⁺. Between the exchange capacity A of these cations and their ionic radii r (given by Ladd) exists the simple relation A = const./r. For Na⁺ the radius of the inner hydration shell must be considered. In absolute dimethyl-sulphoxide under the same conditions the sequence is K⁺ ≥ NH₄ > Rb⁺ > Na⁺ > Cs⁺ > Li⁺. For K⁺, NH₄, Rb⁺ and Cs⁺ the exchange capacity is given by A = const./r + const. · r⁴. The sequences of the alkali ions in both solvents are among the group of 13 sequences which are physicaly significant according to EISENMANNS 's theory. The results are compared with the observations made with water as solvent.     

Nonempirical conformational analysis of oubaine molecule chelate complexes with Ca2+ and possible mechanism of modulation of transductor function of Na+,K+-ATPhase

Complete conformational analysis of chelate complex of oubaine molecule with Ca²⁺ in 1:1 stoichiometry is carried out. Complete ab initio optimization of geometric parameters of all possible structures of the complexes is performed in the framework of restricted Hartree-Fock method with 6–31G* basis using GAMESS program. Influence of the complex formation on the steric structure and electronic structure of oubaine molecule is analyzed. Oubaine molecule is found capable of binding Ca²⁺ by two modes. Mechanism of binding of oubaine molecule with transductor site of Na⁺,K⁺-ATPhase is proposed: ligand-receptor interaction is assumed to be realized in account of formation of trial complex oubaine-Ca²⁺-Na⁺,K⁺-ATPhase, with main contribution to the interaction energy of ion-ion bonds formation between Ca²⁺ and nucleophilic functional groups in the composition of the mentioned binding site of Na⁺,K⁺-ATPhase.     

Metal Ion Interaction of Two New Tritopic N2O13 Macrobicycles with B15C5 Moieties in Acetonitrile Solution

The synthesis of two new tritopic crown ligands (L1 and L2) bearing two benzo-15-crown-5 lateral moieties linked through a dibenzo-trioxa chain together with their interaction with metal ions, in acetonitrile and acetonitrile–water (50%, v/v) solutions is reported. The influence of K⁺, Na⁺, Li⁺, Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Al³⁺, on the spectroscopic properties of these diaza-polyoxa ligands was investigated by absorption spectrophotometry and in some cases by fluorescence emission spectroscopy. Coordination with alkaline (Na⁺, K⁺ and Li⁺) and alkaline earth (Ca²⁺and Ba²⁺) metal ions is assumed to be weak with both macrobicyclic ligands, while the interaction with both imine and amine derivatives causes a minor effect in the absorption spectra. Coordination with Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Pb²⁺ in acetonitrile solution causes a major change in the absorption spectra of the chromophores. In the case of Cu²⁺, addition of the metal to L1 or L2 leads to a blue–violet complex in solution with an absorbance maximum centred at 590 nm. Interaction of the Schiff-base L1 with Pb²⁺ leads to a short wavelength shift in the absorption bands, comparable with the ZnL1 complex. Presence of transition metal ions such as Co²⁺, Ni²⁺and Cd²⁺ do not remarkably affect the absorption spectra of L1 and L2 in solution. Trivalent aluminium has a modest effect in the absorption bands of both N₂O₁₃ donor set bismacrocyclic ligands. The fluorescence study of L2 in the presence of Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Al³⁺shows that Cu²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Al³⁺ complexes form non-fluorescent complexes.

Zusammenfassung Die Trennung der Ionenpaare Rb⁺/Cs⁺, K⁺/Rb⁺, K⁺/Cs⁺, Na⁺/K⁺, Li⁺/Na⁺ mit Salzsäure oder Ammoniumchloridlösung als Elutionsmittel gelingt quantitativ oder nahezu quantitativ mit Hilfe von Titanhexacyanoferrat(II)-säulen. Die Cäsiumionen können nicht eluiert werden. Ebenso gelingt die Trennung der lonenpaare Sr²⁺/Ba²⁺, Ca²⁺/Ba²⁺, Ba²⁺/Cs⁺ und Sr²⁺/Cs⁺ quantitativ oder nahezu quantitativ. Auch eine partielle Trennung der Seltenen Erden ist möglich; Yttrium ist leichter eluierbar als die Lanthanide.

Summary The quantitative or nearly quantitative separation of the ion pairs Rb⁺/Cs⁺, K⁺/Rb⁺, k⁺/Cs⁺, Na⁺/K⁺ and Li⁺/Na⁺ can be achieved with hydrochloric acid or ammonium chloride solutions as eluents by means of columns of titanium hexacyanoferrate(II). The elution of the Cs⁺ ions is not possible. In the same way the quantitative or nearly quantitative separation of the ion pairs Sr²⁺/Ba²⁺, Ca²⁺/Ba²⁺, Ba²⁺/Cs⁺ and Sr²⁺/Cs⁺ can be achieved. Also a partial separation of the rare-earth elements is possible; yttrium is more easily eluted than the lanthanides.

     

Complexation of Cd2+, Ni2+, and Ag+ metal ions with 4,13-didecyl-l,7,10,16-tetraoxa-4,13-diazacyclooctadecane in acetonitrile-ethylacetate binary mixtures

Conductometric titrations have been performed in acetonitrile-ethylacetate (AN-EtOAc) binary solutions at 288, 298, 308, and 318 K to obtain the stoichiometry, the complex stability constants and the standard thermodynamic parameters for the complexation of Cd²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Ag⁺ cations with 4,13-didecyl-1,7,10,16-tetraoxa-4,13-diazacyclooctadecane (cryptand 22DD). The stability constants of the resulting 1: 1 complexes formed between the metal cations and the ligand were determined by computer fitting of the conductance-mole ratio data. There is a non-linear relationship between the logK _f values of complexes and the mole fraction of ethylacetate in the mixed solvent system. In addition, the conductometric data show that the stoichiometry of the complexes formed between the Cd²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Ag⁺ cations with the ligand changes with the nature of the solvent. The standard enthalpy and entropy values for the 1: 1 [ML] complexation reactions were evaluated from the temperature dependence of the formation constants. Thermodynamically, the complexation processes of the metal cations with the C22DD, is mainly entropy governed and the values of thermodynamic parameters are influenced by the nature and composition of the binary mixed solvent solutions.     

Study on the synthesis of novel fluorescent macrocyclic sensors and their sensitive properties for Cu2+ and Fe3+ in aqueous solution

In this work, we synthesised and characterised three novel fluorescence macrocyclic sensors containing optically active dansyl groups. The studies for the interaction of the synthesised compounds with various mental ions (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Ag⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, Pb²⁺, Zn²⁺, Co²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Mn²⁺, Cr³⁺, Al³⁺, Fe³⁺) were performed by fluorescence titration, Job’s plot, ESI-MS and DFT calculations. The results showed that the sensors 1a–1c displayed selective recognition for Cu²⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions and formed stoichiometry 1:1 complex through PET mechanism in DMSO/H₂O solution (1:1, v/v, pH 7.4 of HEPES). The binding constant (K) and detection limit were calculated.     

Extraktion von alkali- und erdalkalimetallionen mit (sym-dibenzo-14-krone-4-oxy)- und (sym-dibenzo-16-krone-5-oxy)-carbonsäuren

(Extraction of alkali on alkaline earth metal ions with (sym-dibenzo-14-crown-4-oxy)- and (sym-dibenzo-16-crown-5-oxy)-carboxylic acids.)The extraction of lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium and some other metal ions with dibenzo-4-crown-4-oxy- and dibenzo-16-crown-5-oxycarboxylic acids containing the groups -CH₂COOH, -(CH₂)₂COOH, -(CH₂)₃COOH, -CH(C₂H₅)COOH and -CH(C₄H₉)COOH was studied. The extraction increases as a function of the lipophilic character of the carboxylic acid group. Calcium, barium and strontium ions are better extracted than Li⁺, Na⁺ and K⁺; there are only small differences among the alkaline earth metal ions. Evaluated from the extraction data, the composition of the extracted species was 1:1 (metal/ligand) for Li⁺, and 1:2 for CaCa²⁺; Na⁺ and K⁺ favour the formation of 1:2 complexes with dibenzo-14-crown-4-derivatives bbut 1:1 complexes with dibenzo-16-crown-5-oxy-carboxylic acids. The dependence of the distribution ratio on pH does not provide unequivocal evidence for the composition of the extracted compounds.     

ESI‐MS studies of the non‐covalent interactions between biologically important metal ions and N‐sulfonylcytosine derivatives

The aim of this report is to present the electrospray ionization mass spectrometry results of the non‐covalent interaction of two biologically active ligands, N‐1 ‐ (p‐toluenesulfonyl)cytosine, 1‐TsC, 1 and N‐1 ‐ methanesulfonylcytosine, 1‐MsC, 2 and their Cu(II) complexes Cu(1‐TsC‐N3)₂Cl₂, 3 and Cu(1‐MsC‐N3)₂Cl₂ and 4 with biologically important cations: Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺ and Zn²⁺. The formation of various complex metal ions was observed. The alkali metals Na⁺ and K⁺ formed clusters because of electrostatic interactions. Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ salts produced the tris ligand and mixed ligand complexes. The interaction of Zn²⁺ with 1–4 produced monometal and dimetal Zn²⁺ complexes as a result of the affinity of Zn²⁺ ions toward both O and N atoms. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Napthaquinone derived ionophores: interaction with biologically important metal ions (Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+ and Ca2+)

The synthetic model systems based on the study of supramolecular compounds are proficient in mimicking the biological processes so as to get the insight of their processes. In this perspective, a series of naphthaquinone derived redox switchable ionophores namely D₁ (2,3,5,6,8,9,11,12-octahydronaphtho [2,3b] [1,4,7,10,13] pentaoxacyclo octadecine-14,19-dione) and D₂ (2,3,5,6,8,9-hexahydronaphtho[2,3-b] [1,4,7,10] tetraoxacyclododecine-11,16-dione) have been synthesized and interacted with Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺ cations. The isolated solid state soft materials obtained after interaction were characterized by melting point, TLC, ¹H NMR spectroscopy and CHN estimation. The extraction, transport potential and stability constant determination of these ionophores towards cations helped in investigating their binding strength in solution. The selective extraction of Na⁺ and Li⁺ by D₁ and D₂ correspondingly proves them an efficient compound for the manufacturing of chemosensor. Whereas efficient transport of Mg²⁺ by both the ionophores especially by D₁ may assist in developing biomodels for understanding its transport through membrane in living system. The selectivity of these ionophores towards metal ions can be modulated by molecular tailoring.     

Study of Complex Formation between N-Phenylaza-15-Crown-5 with Mg2+, Ca2+, Ag+ and Cd2+ Metal Cations in Some Binary Mixed Aqueous and Non-aqueous Solvents using the Conductometric Method

The complexation reactions between Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Ag⁺ and Cd²⁺ metal cations with N-phenylaza-15-crown-5 (Ph-N15C5) were studied in acetonitrile (AN)–methanol (MeOH), methanol (MeOH)–water (H₂O) and propanol (PrOH)–water (H₂O) binary mixtures at different temperatures using the conductometric method. The conductance data show that the stochiometry of all of the complexes with Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Ag⁺ and Cd²⁺ cations is 1:1 (L:M). The stability of the complexes is sensitive to the solvent composition and a non-linear behaviour was observed for variation of log K _f of the complexes versus the composition of the binary mixed solvents. The selectivity order of Ph-N15C5 for the metal cations in neat MeOH is Ag⁺>Cd²⁺>Ca²⁺>Mg²⁺, but in the case of neat AN is Ca²⁺>Cd²⁺>Mg²⁺>Ag⁺. The values of thermodynamic parameters (ΔH _c ^o , ΔS _c ^o ) for formation of Ph-N15C5–Mg²⁺, Ph-N15C5–Ca²⁺, Ph-N15C5–Ag⁺ and Ph-N15C5–Cd²⁺ complexes were obtained from temperature dependence of stability constants and the results show that the thermodynamics of complexation reactions is affected by the nature and composition of the mixed solvents.

The synthesis and complexive abilities of 5,11,17-tris(tert-butyl)-23 amino-25,26,27,28-tetra-propoxycalix[4]arene towards alkali cations Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺ and alkali earth cations Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ in methanol-chloroform mixture have been evaluated at 25°C, using UV-Vis spectrophotometric techniques. The results showed that the ligand is capable to complex with all the cations by 1: 1 metal to ligand ratios. The selectivity presented considering the calculated formation constants are in the order Li⁺ > Na⁺ > K⁺ > Rb⁺ > Cs⁺ and Mg²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Sr²⁺ > Ba²⁺ with the ligand.     

Complexation Properties of a Carbon-Bridged Cryptand with Metal Ions in Aqueous Solution at 25°C

Abstract

Thermodynamic quantities (log K, ΔH, and ΔS) for the interactions of a carbon-bridged cryptand with Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ba²⁺, and Pb²⁺ were determined at 25° C by calorimetric titration in aqueous solution. The cryptand forms complexes with Na⁺, Sr²⁺, Ba²⁺, and Pb²⁺ with log K ≤ 2. Complexation was not detected for Li⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺. Weak interactions with Li⁺ and K⁺ and a log K value of 2.4 for Na⁺ suggest that the cavity size of the cryptand is close to that of Na⁺ but too small for K⁺ and too large for Li⁺. The carbon-bridged cryptand selectively binds Sr²⁺ (log K = 3.2) over Ca²⁺ and Ba²⁺ by more than one order of magnitude.
