Mixed Chloro Bis[Alkylenedithiophosphato] Antimony(III) and Their Heterobinuclear Derivatives with Boron Tetraisopropoxide: Synthesis and Characterization

Chloro bis(alkylenedithiophosphato)antimony(III) complexes of the type [OGOP(S)S]₂SbCl (1–5) [where G = —C(Me)₂—CH₂—CH(Me)—1 —C(Me)₂—C(Me)₂—2, —CH₂—C(Me)₂—CH₂—3, —CH(Me)—CH(Me)—4 and –CH(Me)—CH₂—CH₂—5] have been synthesized by the reaction of SbCl₃ with sodium salts of alkylenedithiophosphoric acids in a 1:2 molar ratio in refluxing benzene. Reactions of chloro bis(alkylenedithiophosphato) antimony(III) compounds, [OGOP(S)S]₂SbCl with sodium tetraisopropoxoborate, NaB(OPrⁱ)₄, in a 1:1 molar ratio in refluxing benzene yielded some new heterobinuclear derivatives of antimony(III) and boron(III) of the type[OGOP(S)S]₂Sb(μ—OPrⁱ)₂B(OPrⁱ)₂. These newly synthesized complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis and molecular weight measurement, and their plausible structures have been proposed on the basis of IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C,³¹P,¹¹B), and FAB-mass spectral studies. On the basis of the spectroscopic evidence, a pseudo octahedral geometry around antimony and tetrahedral geometry around boron atom has been proposed. Cyclic O,O′-alkylenedithiophosphate ligands and their corresponding chloro bis(alkylenedithiophosphato)antimony(III) compounds have been screened for microbial activities. These compounds showed significant antifungal activity against Fusarium and Trichoderma and antibacterial activity against E. Coli and Pseudomonas.

Synthetic,spectroscopic, thermal,and structural studies of antimony(III) bis(pyrrolidinedithiocarbamato)alkyldithiocarbonates

An account of the synthesis, spectroscopic, thermal and structural behavior of antimony(III) bis(pyrrolidinedithiocarbamato)alkyldithiocarbonates is presented. The reaction of antimony(III) bis(pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate) chloride with potassium organodithiocarbonate in equimolar ratio yielded the corresponding mixed derivatives of the type [(CH₂)₄NCS₂]₂SbS₂COR [where R = Me, Et, Pr ⁿ , Pr ⁱ , Bu ⁿ , and Bu ⁱ ]. These newly synthesized complexes have been characterized by physicochemical [molecular weight determination, melting points, and elemental analysis], spectral [UV, IR, far-IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C)], thermal [TG, DTA, and FAB⁺ mass], and structural [powder XRD and SEM] studies. Analytical studies leads to purity and structural properties of the synthesized complexes on the other hand powder X-ray diffraction and SEM studies show that multiphase, polycrystalline, and rod-shaped complexes have been formed having nanorange crystallite size and monoclinic crystal system.

Lithocholic acid N-(2-aminoethyl)amide (1) and deoxycholic acid N-(2-aminoethyl)amide(2) have been prepared and characterized by¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR. The accurate molecular masses of 1 and 2 have been determined by ESI MS. The formation of the Cd²⁺-complexes (1+Cd and 2+Cd) in CD₃OD solution have been detected by ¹H,¹³C, ¹⁵N and ¹¹³Cd NMR.

The ¹⁵N NMR chemical shiftassignments of the ligands and theirCd²⁺-complexes are based on z-GS¹H,¹⁵N HMBC experiments. ¹³C NMR chemical shift differences between 1and its 1:1 Cd²⁺-complex based on ab initiocalculations at Hartree-Fock SCI-PCM level using3-21G(d) basis set are in agreement with theexperimental shift changes observed onCd²⁺-complexation.     

SYNTHESIS AND SPECTROSCOPIC STUDIES OF SOME FUNGITOXIC ORGANOLEAD(IV) COMPLEXES OF SULFUR AND NITROGEN DONOR LIGANDS

Abstract

Some organolead(IV) complexes derived from biologically active sulfur and nitrogen donor ligands have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations and conductivity measurements. The trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral geometries for these complexes have been proposed on the basis of electronic, infrared and NMR (¹H and ¹³C) spectral evidences. The antifungal activity of some of the ligands and their complexes have also been evaluated against Fursarium oxysporum SCW. ex Frics f. sp. Ciceri (Pedwick) subram.     

Microwave‐assisted synthesis,characterization, biotoxicity and antispermatogenic activity of some antimony(III) complexes with N∩O and N∩S donor ligands

New series of phenylantimony chloride and antimony chloride with Schiff base ligands, L¹H and L²H having N^∩S and N^∩O donor systems were synthesized under microwave irradiation using a domestic microwave oven. The reaction time was brought down from hours to a few seconds with improved yield as compared with conventional heating. All the ligands and their antimony(III) derivatives were characterized on the basis of microanalysis, elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations and spectral studies including IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C) and electronic spectral studies. A distorted trigonal bipyramidal and pseudo‐octahedral geometry around the antimony atom was tentatively proposed for these derivatives. The compounds were screened in vitro against bacteria and fungi to test their antimicrobial property and in vivo in male albino rats to test their antifertility properties. The treatment with the ligands and their phenylantimony derivatives at dose levels of 20 mg per rat per day did not cause any significant change in body weight, but a significant reduction in the weights of reproductive organs was observed. Arrest of spermatogenesis was noted at various stages with production of primary spermatocytes (preleptotene and pachytene), secondary spermatocytes and step‐19 spermatids found to be decreased. Biochemical parameters of tissues, i.e. protein, sialic acid, cholesterol content of testes and seminal vesicular fructose also showed significant reduction. Further, the serum testosterone concentrations were also decreased after treatment with ligands and their antimony(III) derivatives. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis,characterization, and insecticidal activity of new tin (IV) complexes

A three-component reaction of dimethyltin dibromide with imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, pyridine derivatives, or isoquinoline and allyl bromide in refluxing ethanol affords the ionic complex, bis(1-allylcycloiminium) dimethyltetrabromostannate (II). The reaction involves N-allylation of cycloimine accompanied by the coordination of two bromide ions with the tin atom of dimethyltin dibromide. The complexes have been characterized by infrared and ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR studies. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of a complex reveals the tin atom to be hexacoordinated and the dimethyltetrabromostannate (II) anion having octahedral geometry. Some of the complexes tested for their insecticidal activity are found to exhibit strong activity against Tribolium castaneum insect with LC₅₀ ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 ppm.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic properties,and antimicrobial activity of some new 5-phenylazo-6-aminouracil-vanadyl complexes

Six complexes, [VO(L¹-H)₂]?·?5H₂O (1), [VO(OH)(L^2,3?H)(H₂O)]?·?H₂O (2,3), [VO(OH)(L^4,5?H)(H₂O)]?·?H₂O (4,5), [VO(OH)(L⁶?H)(H₂O)]?·?H₂O (6), were prepared by reacting different derivatives of 5-phenylazo-6-aminouracil ligands with VOSO₄?·?5H₂O. The infrared and ¹H NMR spectra of the complexes have been assigned. Thermogravimetric analyses (TG, DTG) were also carried out. The data agree quite well with the proposed structures and show that the complexes were finally decomposed to the corresponding divanadium pentoxide. The ligands and their vanadyl complexes were screened for antimicrobial activities by the agar-well diffusion technique using DMSO as solvent. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for 1–4 and 6 were calculated at 30°C for 24–48?h. The activity data show that the complexes are more potent antimicrobials than the parent ligands.     

Synthesis and Characterization of a New (E,E)-Dioxime and its Homonuclear Complexes

N′-(4′-Benzo[15-crown-5]naphthylaminoglyoxime (H₂L) and its sodium chloride complex (H₂L·NaCl) have been prepared from 2-naphthylchloroglyoxime, 4′-aminobenzo[15-crown-5] and sodium bicarbonate or sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride. Nickel(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes of H₂L and H₂L·NaCl have a metal–ligand ratio of 1:2 and the ligand coordinates through the two N atoms, as do most of the vic-dioximes. The BF₂⁺-capped Ni(II), Co(III) and mononuclear complexes of thevic-dioxime were prepared. The macrocyclic ligands and their transition metal complexes have been characterized on the basis of IR, ¹H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses data.     

A Novel Synthesis of AlCl[(NPh)2P(O)H] and SiCl2[(NPh)2P(O)H]: Two New Phosph(V)azane Derivatives

Reactions of phosph(V)azane derivatives of bis(anilino)phosphine oxide (PhNH)₂P(O)H (1) with AlCl₃ and SiCl₄ produce two new phosph(V)azane complexes, AlCl[(NPh)₂P(O)H] (2) and SiCl₂[(NPh)₂P(O)H] (3). In these reactions, an HCl elimination occurs and M─N bonds (M = Si, Al) form directly between a bis(anilino)phosphine oxide ligand with aluminum and silicon halides. The reactions do not require any base to deprotonate the phosphazane ligand. The final products have been fully characterized by means of elemental analysis and IR, MS, and multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P, ²⁷Al, and ²⁹Si) spectroscopy.     

Bimetallic bis(diphenylphosphino)acetylene bridged copper(I) complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline derivatives: synthesis,crystal structure,and spectroscopic characterization

A new series of bimetallic bis(diphenylphosphino)acetylene-bridged copper(I) 1,10-phenanthroline complexes, [Cu₂(dppa)₂(L)₂](BF₄)₂; L?=?1,10-phenanthroline (1); 4-methyl-1,10-phenanthroline (2); 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (3); and 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (4), have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic methods. The X-ray structures of 1 and 4 were determined. The structures consist of centrosymmetric bimetallic 10-membered chair-like dimetallacycles. In 1, intermolecular C–H?π interactions result in bending of the phenanthroline ligand and sterically induced lengthening of one Cu–P bond. In 1–4, the ³¹P NMR downfield coordination shift, relative to the free ligand, correlates with the basic strength of the 1,10-phenanthroline ligands.     

Microwave-Assisted Synthesis,and Stereochemical and Biological Aspects of Some Antimony(III) and Bismuth(III) Complexes with Biologically Potent Bidentate Schiff Bases

Tetra- and pentacoordinated antimony and bismuth derivatives have been prepared by the interactions of monophenylantimonydichloride(III), trichlorostibane, and trichlorobismuthane with the sodium salts of 3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarbothioamide (L¹H) and 3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarboxamide (L²H), under microwave irradiation as well as by conventional heating. These compounds were further characterized by analytical and spectroscopic techniques including UV, IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectra. Newly synthesized complexes with their corresponding ligands were also tested for their antifungal and antibacterial activities.     

Synthesis,characterization, structural elucidation and biological screening of some bis(diisobutyldithiophosphato)antimony(III) complexes

Abstract

Seven complexes of type [(C₄H₉ⁱ-O)₂PS₂]₂SbR have been synthesized by the reaction of chlorobis(diisobutyldithiophosphato)antimony(III) with mixed thio and/or oxo donor ligands in 1:1?M stoichiometry, where R?=?SC₆H₅, OOCC₆H₅, SCH₂COOH, SOCCH₃, OOCCH₃, SC₆H₄COOH and OOC(OH)C₆H₄. These newly synthesized derivatives have been characterized by different physicochemical (elemental analysis (C, H, S, Sb), melting point, molecular weight determination), spectral (UV, IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P)) studies, as well as ESI mass, thermal, powder XRD and biological studies. In the final step of weight loss in thermogravimetric analysis, occurring in the range of 245–505?°C, the degradation of the C₆H₃CO moieties takes place and antimony sulfide (1/2?Sb₂S₃) is obtained as remaining material, which is useful in various aspects. Bonded to antimony the diisobutyldithiophosphato substituent behaves as an anisobidentate ligand, which is confirmed through spectral analysis. Powder XRD studies indicate that these compounds crystallize in a monoclinic crystal system with an unit cell volume of ～7074–7162 ų forming nano ranged (9.69–15.69?nm) crystallites. From the antimicrobial screening tests, bis(diisobutyldithiophosphato)antimony(III) thioglycolate (compound 3) has shown a maximum zone of inhibition (19?mm) against E. coli at 200?μg mL^?1 concentration.     

Mercury(II) cyanide complexes with alkyldiamines: solid-state/solution NMR,computational, and antimicrobial studies

Mercury cyanide complexes of alkyldiamines (1–6), [Hg(L)(CN)₂] (where L?=?en (1,2-diaminoethane), pn (1,3-diaminopropane), N-Me-en, N, N′-Me₂-en, N, N′-Et₂-en, and N, N′-ipr₂-en), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N solution NMR in DMSO-d₆, as well as ¹³C, ¹⁵N, and ¹⁹⁹Hg solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Complexes 1 and 2 have been studied computationally, built and optimized by GAUSSIAN03 using DFT at B3LYP level with LanL2DZ basis set. Binding modes of en and bn (where bn?=?1,4-diaminobutane) toward Hg(CN)₂ are completely different. Complexes with en and pn show chelating binding to Hg(II), while bn behaves as a bridging ligand to form a polymeric structure, [Hg(CN)₂-bn]_∞ [B.A. Al-Maythalony, M. Fettouhi, M.I.M. Wazeer, A.A. Isab. Inorg. Chem. Commun., 12, 540 (2009).]. The solution ¹³C NMR of the complexes demonstrates a slight shift of the ?C≡N (0.9 to 2?ppm) and ?C–NH₂ (0.25 to 6?ppm) carbon resonances, while the other resonances are relatively unaffected. ¹⁵N labeling studies have shown involvement of alkyldiamine ligands in coordination to the metal. The principal components of the ¹³C, ¹⁵N, and ¹⁹⁹Hg shielding tensors have been determined from solid-state NMR data. Antimicrobial activity studies show that the complexes exhibit higher antibacterial activities toward various microorganisms than Hg(CN)₂.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and Sol-Gel Behavior of Dichlorotitanium(IV) (O-Alkyl,O-Cycloalkyl,and O-Aryl Trithiophosphates)

Dichlorotitanium(IV) trithiophosphates of the type TiCl₂[(RO)P(S)S₂] (where R = Me, Et, Prⁿ, Prⁱ, Buⁿ, Bu^s, Buⁱ, Amⁱ, Ph and cyclohexyl) have been synthesized for the first time by the reaction of titanium tetrachloride with potassium trithiophosphates in a 1:1 molar ratio in anhydrous benzene. Sol-gel chemistry of these titanium(IV) compounds has been studied in dry benzene by treatment with hydrogen sulfide gas. These newly synthesized derivatives have been characterized by elemental analysis (C, H, S, Cl, and Ti), molecular weight measurement, and spectral [IR and multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P)] studies. The bonding mode of trithiophosphate ligands and tentative structure around titanium(IV) are discussed.     

Preparation,spectroscopic, thermal and powder X‐ray diffraction characterization,and antimicrobial activities of mixed bis(O,O′‐diisopropyldithiophosphato‐S,S′)antimony(III) derivatives with some oxygen and sulfur donor ligands

Newly synthesized mixed bis(O,O′‐diisopropyldithiophosphato‐S,S′)antimony(III) derivatives have been characterized using physicochemical, spectral, thermal and powder X‐ray diffraction studies, and their antimicrobial activities were investigated. These derivatives have nanometric crystallite size (11.39–14.67 nm) with unit cell volume (4968.47 and 5079.79 ų) and lower symmetry (monoclinic) crystal system. After thermal decomposition in inert atmosphere, these derivatives give antimony sulfide as a final decomposition product which has many potential applications, and they exhibit enhanced antimicrobial activities (greater zone of inhibition) as compared to the free ligands and standard drugs (chloroamphenicol and terbinafine were used as standard antibacterial and antifungal drugs, respectively) due to the nanometric size of the complexes.     

Synthesis and Characterization of a Novel Phosph(V)azane-Tin(IV) Complex

Abstract

The reaction of bis(anilino)phosphine oxide (C₆H₅NH)₂P(O)H, 1 with Bu₂ ⁿSnCl₂ in the presence of an excess of triethylamine (TEA) in dry tetrahydrofurane (THF) yields the novel N,O-bonded tin complex Bu₂ ⁿSn[NPh(O)P(H)NPh(HNEt₃)]₂, 2. TEA is used as a base to deprotonate the phosphazane ligand and is separated as Et₃NH⁺Cl^?, whereas HTEA⁺ exists in the final product 2 and act as a charge balancing and H-bond structure–directing agent. This new compound has been fully characterized by means of IR, MS, and multinuclear (¹H, ³¹P, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR) spectroscopy.     

Diorganotin Complexes with N(4)-Phenylthiosemicarbazones: Synthesis,Spectroscopic Characterization,and Antibacterial Activity

Abstract

The organotin(IV) complexes, SnPh₂L^a (1), SnMe₂L^a (2), SnBu₂L^a (3), SnPh₂L^b (4), SnMe₂L^b (5), SnPh₂L^c (6), SnMe₂L^c (7), and SnBu₂L^c (8) were obtained by reaction of SnR ₂Cl₂ (R = Ph, Me, and Bu) with 1-(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-4-phenylthiosemicarbazide (H₂L^a), 1-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)-4-phenylthiosemicarbazide (H₂L^b), and 1-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)-4-phenylthiosemicarbazide (H₂L^c). The synthesized complexes have been investigated by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopy. The data show that the thiosemicarbazone acts as a tridentate dianionic ligand and coordinates via the thiol group, imine nitrogen, and phenolic oxygen. The coordination number of tin is 5. The in vitro antibacterial activities of the ligands and their complexes have been evaluated against Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria and compared with the standard antibacterial drugs.

Crystal structure and spectral characterization of dimethylthallium (III) complexes with 2-mercaptonicotinic acid and esters

Synthesis, spectral properties and crystal structure of dimethylthallium(III) complexes with 2-mercaptonicotinic acid (2mna), 2-mercapto-methyl-nicotinate (2mmn), 2-mercapto-ethyl-nicotinate (2men) and 2-mercapto-isopropyl-nicotinate (2min) are reported. The compounds were characterized using IR, multinuclear NMR (¹H,¹³C,²⁰⁵Tl) and mass spectrometry (electrospray, ES-API). The molecular structures of [TlMe₂(2mna)]·H₂O, (1), [TlMe₂(2mmn)], (2), [TlMe₂(2men)], (3) and [TlMe₂(2min)], (4) were determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In 1, the monodeprotonate O,S-bidentate ligand chelates one dimethylthallium (III) unit and simultaneously bridges (O and S) between two of these organometallic units. The Tl-O1′ and Tl-S″ interactions are leading to polymeric chain linked in a three-dimensional network by the hydrogen bonds formed between the water molecule and the oxygen O (2) atom of the acid. The thallium atom is in a distorted octahedral environment with a [TlC₂O₂S₂] kernel. Compounds 2, 3 and 4 are similar, in all the cases already mentioned the ligand is NH deprotonated and is strongly coordinated to two dimethylthallium (III) units through the N and S atoms. Two additional weak interactions with the O and S atoms lead to a [TlC₂NOS₂] kernel for the metal atom, in which the coordination polyhedron is a very distorted octahedron with the methyl groups occupying the apical positions.     

Mixed bis(morpholine‐4‐dithiocarbamato‐S,S′)antimony(III) complexes: synthesis,characterization and biological studies

Some mixed bis(morpholine‐4‐dithiocarbamato‐S,S′)antimony(III) complexes [(OC₄H₈NCS₂)₂SbL] with oxygen or sulfur donor ligands [L = ―OOCCH₃ ( 1 ), ―OOCC₆H₅ ( 2 ), ―SOCCH₃ ( 3 ), ―SCH₂COOH ( 4 ), ―OOCC₆H₄(OH) ( 5 ), ―SCH₂CH₂CH₃ ( 6 ), ―OC₆H₅ ( 7 ), ½ ―SCH₂CH₂S― ( 8 )] have been synthesized by reacting the chloro‐bis(morpholine‐4‐dithiocarbamato‐S,S′)antimony(III) with corresponding oxygen or sulfur donor ligands in 1:1 or 2:1 stoichiometries. These have been characterized by melting point, molecular weight determination (cryoscopically), antimony (iodometrically) and sulfur (gravimetrically) estimation, elemental analyses (C, H and N), UV–visible, FT‐IR, far IR, multinuclear NMR (¹H and ¹³C)], TG/DTA analysis, ESI–mass and powder X‐ray diffraction studies. The splitting of the strong band observed at 1046–1066 cm^?1 due to υ(C―S) indicated anisobidentate mode of binding of the dithiocarbamate group, which was further supported by a ¹³C NMR signal appearing at around δ 200 due to NCS₂ moiety. The base peak observed at m/z 444.9 supports the strong chelating nature of the morpholine‐4‐dithiocarbamate compared to the other hetero ligands used. TGA revealed that, complexes 21 and 4 were decomposed in three steps; also 6 was decomposed in two steps, followed by the formation of Sb₂S₃. The results obtained by antimicrobial screening tests indicate that complex 3 showed a maximum zone of inhibition (20 mm) against Trichoderma ressie at a concentration of 200 µg ml^?1. Complexes 2 , 3 and 8 are most active (zone of inhibition (ZI) 17–20 mm) against both of the fungal species Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma ressie as well as complex 4 (ZI 17 mm) and 6 (ZI 18 mm) against Trichoderma ressie.
