Thermal properties of solid complexes with biologically important heterocyclic ligands

The stoichiometry of thermal decomposition of the complexes Ni(NCS)₂(fpy)₄ (I), Ni(NCS)₂(bfpy)₄ (II) and Ni(NCS)₂(CF₃Phfpy)₄ (III) (where fpy=furopyridine, bfpy=benzo-[2,3]furo[3,2-c]pyridine, CF₃Phfpy=2-(3-fluoromethylphenyl) furo[3,2-c]pyridine) have been investigated in nitrogen atmosphere from room temperature to 500°C by means of TG and DTG. The results revealed that release of the heterocyclic ligands occurs in two steps. IR data suggested that fpy, bfpy and CF₃Phfpy ligands were coordinated to Ni(II) through the N atom of the respective heterocyclic rings and same is the case with the anionic NCS group.

Synthesis and characterization of 10 new 2-methylthionicotinate (2-MeSnic) Co(II) complexes, namely, [Co(2-MeSnic)₂L₂(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (L is N,N-diethylnicotinamide—Et₂nia, ethylnicotinate—Etnic, nicotinamide—nia, isonicotinamide—isonia, N-methylnicotinamide—N-Menia, furo[3,2-c]pyridine—fpy, 2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine—Me₂fpy or benzo[4,5]furo[3,2-c]pyridine—Bfp; n is 0, 1 or 2) as well as [Co(2-MeSnic)₂L₂] (L is ronicol—ron or 2-methylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine—Mefpy), are reported. The characterizations were based on physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. The crystal structure of one of the complexes has been determined. In the molecular complex [Co(2-MeSnic)₂(Me₂fpy)₂(H₂O)₂], the Co(II) central atom, located at a symmetry centre, is octahedrally coordinated by an oxygen atom of the unidentate 2-MeSnic carboxyl group, the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring of Me₂fpy, a water molecule and the corresponding centrosymmetrically located atoms. Also, biological activity of the complexes against various strains of bacteria and filamentous fungi has been investigated. It is concluded that by complexation of these nicotinate derivatives their biological activities are elevated.

The synthesis and characterization of six new 2-methylthionicotinate (2-MeSnic) copper(II) monomeric complexes [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂L₂] (L is furo[3,2-c]pyridine—fpy, 2-methylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine—Mefpy, 2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine—Me₂fpy or benzo[4,5]furo[3,2-c]pyridine—Bfp), [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(fpy)₂(H₂O)], as well as [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(CF₃Phfpy)₂(H₂O)₂] (CF₃Phfpy is 2-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)furo[3,2-c]pyridine) are reported. The characterizations were based on elemental analysis, infrared, electronic and EPR spectra. The crystal structure of one of the complexes has been determined. The Cu^II atoms of [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(fpy)₂(H₂O)] are six-coordinated in a highly distorted tetragonal–bipyramidal arrangement by two nitrogen atoms, one from each fpy, in trans-positions, by three oxygen atoms of the carboxyl groups of 2-MeSnic ligands (one monodentate, one asymmetrically bidentate), one axial position being occupied by the oxygen of a water molecule. The antimicrobial effects have been tested on various strains of bacteria, yeasts and filamentous fungi. A comparison of the IC₅₀ and MIC values has shown a decrease of inhibition activities of tested compounds in the order: [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(Bfp)₂] > Bfp > [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(CF₃Phfpy)₂(H₂O)₂] > [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(Me₂fpy)₂] > CF₃Phfpy > [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(Mefpy)₂] > Me₂fpy > [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(fpy)₂(H₂O)] > [Cu(2-MeSnic)₂(H₂O)]₂ > Mefpy > fpy = 2-MeSnicH = CuSO₄.

Furopyridines and furopyridine-Ni(II) complexes

Summary The thermal decomposition of the complexes Ni(SCN)₂(fp)₄·2H2O (I), Ni(SCN)₂(mfp)₄ (II) and Ni(SCN)₂(dmfp)₃ (III) (where fp=furo[3,2-c]pyridine, mfp=2-methylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine and dmfp=2,3-dimethylfuro[3,2-c]pyridine) have been investigated in dynamic air from room temperature to 1000°C by means of TG, DTG and DTA. The chemical composition of the complexes, solid intermediates and the resultant products of thermolysis have been identified by means of elemental analysis and complexometric titration. The results revealed that NiO was left as residue at the end of the thermal degradation experiments. IR data suggested that fp, mfp and dmfp were coordinated to Ni(II) through the N atom of the respective heterocyclic ring.     

Lactams of acetals and acid amides, 45. Synthesis of condensed 2-pyridones from activated amides,lactams, and lactones

By reaction of lactim ethers with N-substituted cyanoacetamides, the corresponding enaminoamides were obtained, cyclization of which by dimethylformamide acetal gave derivatives of pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine, 1,6-naphthyridine, and pyrido[4,3-b]azepine, having a substituent at the nitrogen atom of the pyridone ring. N-substituted furo[3,2-c]pyridines were synthesized from the diethyl acetals of butyrolactone and 3-(dimethylaminomethylene)butyrolactone and dimethylformamide acetal.For communication 44, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 929–932, July, 1985.

Two furo­pyridine complexes of nickel(II) iso­thio­cyanate

Pyridine fused with a furan ring (fupy), and its di­methyl derivative, have been used for the first time as ligands to synthesize potentially new Werner clathrates. The extended aromatic system of pyridine‐like ligands influences considerably the molecular structure of prepared nickel complexes. The molecular structure of tetrakis­(furo­[3,2‐c]­pyridine)­bis(iso­thio­cyanato)­nickel(II) tetra­hydro­furan (THF) solvate, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₇H₅NO)₄]·C₄H₈O or [Ni(NCS)₂(fupy)₄]·THF, (I), reveals a `four‐blade propeller' arrangement of ligands, with the angles between the fupy planes and the basal octahedron plane spanning the range 38.7–55.3°. These angles are much larger (69.9–78.8°) in the centrosymmetric complex tetrakis(2,3‐di­methyl­furo­[3,2‐c]­pyridine)­bis­(iso­thio­cyanato)nickel(II) 6.6‐hydrate, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₉H₉NO)₄]·6.6H₂O or [Ni(NCS)₂(Me₂fupy)₄]·6.6H₂O, (II), in which crystallographically imposed inversion symmetry is present.

Trinuclear complexes {CoL₂(All)X[Cu(phen)]₂}(ClO₄)₂ have planar N-donor heterocyclic base [1,10-phenanthroline (phen)]. The IR spectra indicated that the complexes coordinate through the N atom of the oxime group of each ligand. The magnetic susceptibilities of the complexes indicated that they are diamagnetic (low-spin d ⁶ octahedral) except trinuclear complex which show a subnormal magnetic moment.     

THE PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF Cd(XCN)4M TYPE COMPOUNDS

Abstract

A series of compounds of the type Cd(XCN)₄M (X=S and Se; M=Mn, Fe, Co and Zn) have been prepared and characterized. These compounds crystallize in the tetragonal system: space group I4[sbnd]S₄ ². The bidentate thiocynate and selenocyanate ligands coordinate to the “hard” M(II) ions through the nitrogen atom and the “soft” Cd(II) ion through the sulfur or selenium atom. The Cd[sbnd]Se bond in Cd(XCN)₄ M is slightly stronger than the Cd[sbnd]S bond while the M[sbnd]NCSe bond is slightly weaker than the M[sbnd]NCS bond. The M(II) ions tetrahedrally coordinated by the nitrogen end of XCN^? are in the high spin state. The [sbnd]NCS and [sbnd]NCSe ligands are located at about the same place in the spectrochemical series.
