Synthesis and complexation of a novel soluble vic-dioxime with hydroxyethyl pendant arms

A new soluble vic-dioxime ligand namely 1,4-bis(2′-hydroxyethyl)-2,3-bis(hydroxyimino)-5,6-diphenylpiperazine, (LH₂) containing optically active centers has been prepared as a mixture of isomers from (CNO)₂ and N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)stilbendiamine (1) which has been made by the reduction of the condensation of the product of benzaldehyde and 2-aminoethanol in the presence of aluminum amalgam. N,N-coordinated planar metal complexes of this ligand have been synthesized with Ni^II, Cu^II, Co^II, Pd^II and U^VIO₂. Oxidation of (LH)₂Co in the presence of a base, such as pyridine, leads to an octahedral complex (LH)₂CopyCl containing pyridine and chloride as axial ligands in addition to vic-dioxime ligands. The structures of the ligand and its complexes are proposed on the basis of elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r., mass, i.r. and u.v.–vis. spectral data. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A water-soluble multisite ionophore ligand bearing pyridine and aminothiophenol functionality. Synthesis, spectroscopy and electrochemistry of its complexes, and peripheral reactivity of the (E,E)M (M = Ni) complex with Pd2+ and Ag+

The design, synthesis and coordination of a novel multisite vic-dioxime compound, LH₂, containing flexible pyridine substituents and aminophenylsulfanyl moieties on the periphery, facilitating solubility in water as pyridinium hydrochloride salt are described. LH₂ was prepared by the reaction between 2-(2-pyridylethylamino)-benzenethiol and (E,E)-dichloroglydioxime. Mononuclear [(E,E)M] (M=Ni^II, Cu^II, Co^II, Fe^II and Mn^II) and dinuclear uranyl (UO₂ ^II) complexes of LH₂ were isolated and characterized with metal:ligand ratios of 1:2 and 2:2, respectively. The reaction of Na₂PdCl₄·3H₂O and AgNO₃ in DMF with the mononuclear complex, (LH)₂Ni, resulted in the formation of the heterotrinuclear complexes [Pd₂Ni(LH)₂]Cl₄ and [Ag₂Ni(LH)₂](NO₃)₂. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r., u.v.--vis. spectroscopy, i.r., and MS (LSIMS). The redox properties of the complexes were studied by cyclic voltammetry.     

SYNTHESIS AND COMPLEXATION OF A NOVEL SOLUBLE VIC-DIOXIME

Abstract

A new soluble vic-dioxime, l,4-bis(2-methoxyethyl-2, 3-bis(hydroxyimino)-5, 6-diphenylpiper-azine (LH₂) has been synthesized as a mixture of isomers from dicyan di-N-oxide and 1, 2-diphe-nyl-l,2-bis(2′-methoxyethylamino)ethane, 1, which has been prepared through the reduction of the condensation product of benzaldehyde and 2-methoxyethylamine with the aluminium amalgam. LH₂ gives N,N-coordinated planar metal complexes with Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Pd^II Oxidation of (LH)₂Co in the presence of a base such as py or triphenylphoshine leads to octahedral complexes (LH)₂Co(B)Cl. The uranyl complex of LH₂ has a 1 :1 metal-ligand ratio and a binuclear structure with μ-hydroxo bridges.     

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Novel (E,E)-vic-dioximes

A novel vic-dioxime ligand containing the thiourea group, (4E,5E)-1,3-bis{4-[(4-methylphenylamino)methyl] phenyl}- 2-thiooxaimidazoline-4,5-dione dioxime, (4) mmdH₂ has been prepared from N,N′-bis{4-[(4-methylphenylamino)methyl]phenyl}thiourea, (3) mft and cyanogen di-N-oxide. Mononuclear [M(mmdH)₂], where M = Ni^II, Co^II and Cu^II complexes of the (4) mmdH₂ bidentate ligand have been obtained with a 1:2 metal:ligand ratio, as do most the vic-dioximes. The complexes are formed by coordination of N, N atoms of the ligand. The vic-dioxime ligand and its some transition metal complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance data, magnetic susceptibility, i.r., ¹H-n.m.r and u.v.–vis. spectroscopy. Conductivity measurements have shown that mononuclear complexes are non-electrolytes. In addition, the ligands and metal complexes were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities by agar well diffusion techniques using DMF as solvent.

The Co^III complexes are diamagnetic. The ¹H- and ¹³C-n.m.r. and g.c./m.s. spectra of the vic-dioxime ligands and their Co^III complexes were recorded. The compounds are all non-electrolytes.     

Synthesis,spectroscopy and electrochemistry of mono and dinuclear complexes of a peripherally mixed ligand and the interaction of (E,E) Ni(LH)2 with Pd2+ and Ag+

We describe the synthesis, characterization and electrochemistry of a new family of peripherally functionalised vic-dioxime, 5,6-bis-(hydroxyimino)-1,2,9,10-hydroxy-4,7-dithiadecane (LH₂), with bis-(thiopropandiol) moieties attached to the oxime. Thiopolyalcohol groups containing two different heteroatoms (—S— and —O—) serve as weak exocyclic binding sites for Pd⁺² and Ag⁺ ions. Novel mononuclear (LH)₂M, (M = Ni^II, Cu^II, Co^II, Mn^II and Fe^II), homodinuclear (LH)₂(UO₂)₂(OH) and heterotrinuclear (LH)₂MM₂ (M = Ni^II and M = Pd^II and Ag^I) species have been obtained with the metal:ligand ratios of 1:2, 2:2, and 3:2 respectively. Metal ions coordinate through N,N of the oxime and S,O donor sites of the peripherally attached groups in the presence of the base. The heterotrinuclear complexes were prepared by the interaction of the mononuclear complex, (LH)₂Ni, with Pd(C₅H₅)₂ and AgNO₃ in an appropriate solvent. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r., u.v.–vis. spectroscopy, FT-IR., and by f.a.b-m.s. The redox properties of the complexes were studied by cyclic voltammetry.     

Coumarin-derivatized fluorescent <Emphasis Type="Italic">vic</Emphasis>-dioxime-type ligand and its complexes; the preparation,spectroscopy, and electrochemistry

A new vic-dioxime bearing coumarin functionality, N′¹,N′²-Dihydroxy-N ¹,N ²-bis(4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl)oxalimidamid (LH₂), N,N-bis-[4-methylcoumarinyl]-diamino glyoxime (LH₂), and its mono- and dinuclear complexes {copper^II, cobalt^II, nickel^II and uranyl^II} have been reported. The fluorescence excitation and emission spectra of LH₂ and its complexes with metal ions were examined. It was observed that fluorescence and excitation emission intensity of LH₂ was quenched depending on complex formation with metal ions. The characterizations of all newly synthesized compounds were made by elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r, i.r., u.v.–vis., and l.c-m.s./m.s. data. Electrochemical behaviour of the ligand involving oxime and coumarine moieties, and its complexes with Ni^II, Cu^II, Co^II and UO ₂ ^II were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The comparison of the electrochemical behaviour of the ligand with its complexes enabled us to identify metal-, oxime- and coumarine-based signals.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Two vic-Dioximes Containing the 1,3-Dioxolane Ring and 1,4-Diaminobutane and Their Cobalt(II), Nickel(II), Copper(II) and Zinc(II) Metal Complexes

Two new vic-dioxime ligands, (E,E)-N-{4-[(1,4-dioxaspiro[4.4]non-2-ylmethyl)amino]butyl}-N-hydroxy-2-(hydroxyimino)ethanimidamide (L¹H₂) and (E,E)-N-{4-[(1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-2-ylmethyl)amino]butyl}-N-hydroxy-2-(hydroxyimino)ethanimidamide (L²H₂) containing two different heteroatoms (N,O) have been prepared from anti-chloroglyoxime, N-(1,4-dioxaspiro[4.4]non-2-ylmethyl)butane-1,4-diamine (3) and N-(1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-2-ylmethyl)butane-1,4-diamine (4). Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II complexes of the ligands have a metal:ligand ratio of 1:2 and the ligands coordinate through the two N atoms, as do most of the vic-dioximes. However, Zn^II complexes of the ligands have a metal:ligand ratio of 1:1 and the ligands are coordinated only by the N, O atoms of the vic-dioximes. In the Co^II complexes two water molecules, and in the Zn^II complexes a chloride ion and a water molecule, are also coordinated to the metal ion. The structures of the compounds were determined by a combination of elemental analysis, magnetic moments, molar conductances, thermogravimetric analysis (t.g.a.) and spectroscopic (u.v.–vis., i.r., ¹H- and ¹³C-n.m.r.) data.

Their i.r. and the ¹H-n.m.r. spectra suggest that cefazolin behaves as a monoanionic tetradentate ligand. The complexes have been screened for antibacterial activity and the results are compared with the activity of cefazolin.     

Synthesis and complex formation of stereoisomers of 1,3-Diphenyl-2-thioxo-4,5-bis(hydroxyimino)-Imidazoline

The new α-dioxime, 1,3-diphenyl-2-thioxo-4,5-bis-(hydroxyimino)-imidazoline, DTIH₂, has been synthesized. Anti- and amphi-forms of DTIH₂ could be separated. The anti- and amphi-forms of Cu^II, Ni^II, Co^II, and Co^III complexes have been isolated and their structures identified by using IR, UV-Visible and elemental analyses. The interconversion of anti- and amphi-Ni^II complexes has been studied.     

Novel vic-dioxime ligands and their poly-metal complexes bearing 1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane: synthesis, characterization, spectroscopy and electrochemistry

Three novel vic-dioxime ligands containing the 1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane group, N,N′-(1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane)-p-tolylglyoxime (L¹SL¹H₄), N,N′-(1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane)-phenylglyoxime (L²SL²H₄), and N,N′-(1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane)-glyoxime (L³SL³H₄) have been prepared from 1,8-diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane with anti-p-tolylchloroglyoxime, anti-phenylchloroglyoxime or anti-monochloroglyoxime. Polynuclear complexes [M(L ^x SL ^x )] _n or [M(L ^x SL ^x )(H₂O)] _n (x = 1, 2 and 3), where M = Cu^II, Co^II, and Ni^II, have been obtained with 1:1 metal/ligand ratio. The Cu^II and Ni^II poly-metal complexes of these ligands are proposed to be square planar, while also the prepared Co^II complexes are proposed to be octahedral with two water molecules as axial ligands. The detection of H-bonding in the [Ni(L¹SL¹)] _n , [Ni(L²SL²)] _n and [M(L³SL³)(H₂O)] _n metal complexes by FT i.r. spectra revealed the square planar or octahedral [MN₄·H₂O)] _n coordination of poly-nuclear metal complexes. [MN₄] _n coordination of the [Ni(L¹SL¹)] _n and [Ni(L²SL²)] _n complexes were also determined by ¹H-n.m.r. spectroscopy. The ligands and poly-metal complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, FT-i.r., u.v.-vis., ¹H and ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductivity, cyclic voltammetry, and differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) techniques.     

Synthesis,characterization, fluorescence and redox features of new <Emphasis Type="Italic">vic</Emphasis>-dioxime ligand bearing pyrene and its metal complexes

A new vic-dioxime ligand, N,N′-bis(aminopyreneglyoxime) (LH₂), and its copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) metal complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UVVIS and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra (for the ligand). Mononuclear complexes were synthesized by a reaction of ligand (LH₂) and salts of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) in ethanol. The complexes have the metal-ligand ratio of 1: 2 and metals are coordinated by N,N′ atoms of vicinal dioximes. The ligand acts in a polydentate fashion bending through nitrogen atoms in the presence of a base, as do most vic-dioximes. Detection of a H-bonding in the Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) complexes by IR revealed the square-planar MN₄ coordination of mononuclear complexes. Fluorescent properties of the ligand and its complexes arise from pyrene units conjugated with a vic-dioxime moiety. Fluorescence emission spectra of the ligand showed a drastic decrease in its fluorescence intensity upon metal binding. The electrochemical properties of the complexes were studied by the cyclic voltammetry technique. The nickel complex displayed an irreversible oxidation process while the copper complex exhibited a quasi-reversible oxidation and reduction processes based on the copper Cu(II)/Cu(III) and Cu(II)/Cu(I) couples, respectively.

The reaction of 5-[2-(methylthio)ethyl]-3-phenyl-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (LH) with salts MCl₂· xH₂O (M = Co, Ni, Cu; x = 2, 6) afforded the [M(L)Cl]_n complexes of Ni^II, Co^II, and Cu^II. The electrochemical behavior of the LH ligand and its complexes was studied using the cyclic voltammetry and rotating disk electrode techniques. The structures of the synthesized compounds were determined by the data of UV—Vis and IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and electrochemical characteristics.

Thermal decomposition of dinuclear complexes LM(μ-OOCR)<Subscript>4</Subscript>ML (L is α-substituted pyridine)

The solid-state thermal decomposition of the tetrabridged dinuclear Mn^II, Fe^II, Co^II, Ni^II, and Cu^II pivalate complexes with apical α-substituted pyridine ligands containing different substituents (2,3-dimethylpyridine or quinoline) was studied by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry. The decomposition of the Co^II complexes is accompanied by the aggregation to form the volatile octanuclear complex Co₈(μ₄-O)₂(μ_n-OOCCMe₃)₁₂, where n = 2 or 3, whereas the thermolysis of the Mn^II, Fe^II, Ni^II, and Cu^II complexes is accompanied by the degradation of the starting compounds, the phase composition of the decomposition products being substantially dependent on the nature of metal and the apical organic ligand.
