Bioactive versatile azomethine complexes of organotin(IV) and organosilicon(IV)

Diorganotin(IV) and diorganosilicon(IV) derivatives of the types R₂MCl(TSCZ) and R₂M(TSCZ)₂ (where TSCZ is the anion of a thiosemicarbazone ligand, R=Ph or Me and M=Sn or Si) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations and conductivity measurements. The mode of bonding has been established on the basis of IR and ¹H, ¹³C ²⁹Si and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopic studies. Some of the representative complexes have also been evaluated for their antimicrobial effects on different species of pathogenic fungi and bacteria in vivoas well as in vitro.The results of these investigations are reported. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Photochemistry of tris(pyrazolyl)borate titanium(IV) complexes

The electronic features and photochemistry of TpTiCl₃ (1) (Tp = hydrotris(pyrazol-1-yl)borate) and Tp*TiCl₃ (2) (Tp* = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate) were studied in THF. Reactive decay of the excited states produced either (or ) and metal center Ti(III) radicals via homolytic cleavage of the Tp → Ti (Tp* → Ti) bond. Cleavage of the Tp → Ti and the Tp* → Ti bond as a primary photoprocess is shown to be consistent with LMCT Tp → Ti and Tp* → Ti excitation. TpTiCl₂(THF) (3) and Tp*TiCl₂(THF) (4) were also prepared by stoichiometric reduction of 1 and 2 with Li₃N. The THF ligand in 3 and 4 was replaced by the stable nitroxyl radical TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) to provide the new complexes TpTiCl₂(TEMPO) (5) and Tp*TiCl₂(TEMPO) (6) in which the TEMPO ligand is η¹ coordinated to Ti(IV). Photolysis of 5 and 6 generate Ti(III) and the TEMPO radical in the primary photochemical step.     

Olefin polymerization by cyclopentadienyltris(dimethylamido)titanium(IV) complexes

Several titanium(IV) complexes of the type Cp′Ti(NMe₂)₃ [Cp′ = cyclopentadienyl ( 1 ), (dimethylaminoethyl)cyclopentadienyl ( 2 ), indenyl ( 3 ), and pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ( 4 )] were prepared, and their catalytic properties in the polymerization of α‐olefins were examined. Complexes 1 and 2 catalyzed the polymerization of ethylene in the presence of methylaluminoxane with a much higher activity than 3 or 4 . Complexes 3 and 4 polymerized ethylene with an activity similar to that of CpTiCl₃ ( 6 ). The preactivation of 2 , 3 , or 4 with trimethylaluminum (TMA) resulted in an increase in ethylene polymerization activities. Also, 1 and 2 were successfully used as ethylene/1‐hexene copolymerization catalysts, producing polymers with various amounts of 1‐hexene incorporation, depending on the amount of 1‐hexene in the feed mixture. Complex 1 likewise effectively polymerized styrene with a higher activity and higher syndiospecificity than the other three catalysts. Complexes 3 and 4 polymerized styrene with low syndiospecificity, whereas 2 produced only atactic polystyrene. The preactivation of 3 or 4 with TMA resulted in an increase in styrene polymerization activities and increased the syndiotacticity percentage of the polymers produced. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

17O NMR spectra of some butyltin(IV) acetates

The ¹⁷O NMR spectra of ¹⁷O isotope‐enriched tributyltin(IV) acetate (1) and dibutyltin(IV) diacetate (2) were recorded in various solvents over wide temperature ranges. Only a single ¹⁷O signal was observed for both oxygen atoms of the —COOSn—groups under these experimental conditions, in both non‐coordinating and coordinating solvents. The ¹⁷O NMR spectra of tert‐butyl acetate (3) were obtained for comparison. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Single-crystal electronic spectra of some quadrate chromium(III) complexes

Polarised electronic spectra of trans-[Cr(tmd)₂F₂](ClO₄), trans-[Cr(en)₂(dma)₂](ClO₄)₃, trans-[Cr(en)₂(dmf)Cl](ClO₄)₂ and trans-[Cr(en)₂(dmf)Br](ClO₄)₂ have been measured at 77 K (tmd = trimethylenediamine; dma = N,N-dimethylacetamide; dmf = N,N-dimethylformamide; en = ethylenediamine, pn = propylenediamine). The observed quartet bands have been given definitive quadrate assignments based on polarisation characteristics. The four-component quadrate quartet bands have been uncovered and assigned also in the unpolarised crystal spectrum of trans-[Cr(en)₂(dmf)₂](ClO₄)₃ at 77 K and the solution spectrum of trans-[Cr(en)(pn)F₂]⁺. The band maxima derived by gaussian analysis in these spectra have been fitted with the theoretical energy equations of d³ configuration in quadrate ligand fields including full configuration interaction. The ligand field parameters Dq, Dt, and Ds and the election correlation parameter, B, extracted by such a fitting, have been compared with those obtained for other similar systems earlier. The significance of the ligand field symmetry parameters and the translated angular overlap model parameters is discussed.

Antimicorbial effects of newly synthesized organotin(IV) and organolead(IV) derivatives

Triorganotin(IV) and triorganolead(IV) derivatives of the types Me₃Sn(SCZ) and Ph₃Pb(SCZ) (where SCZ^? is the anion of a semicarbanzone ligand) have been synthesized by substitution reactions of trimethyltin chloride and triphenyl-lead chloride with semicarbazones derived from heterocyclic ketones. The resulting complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecualr weight determinations and conductivity measurements. The mode of bonding has been established on the basis of infrared and ¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopic studies. Some respresentative complexes have also been evaluated for their antimicrobial effects on different species of pathogenic fungi and bacteria; the results of these investigations have been reported in the present paper.     

17O NMR spectra of some organotin(IV) compounds containing O,C,O-chelating ligands

The 17O chemical shifts of substituted benzyl ethers and a set of organotin(IV) derivatives containing O,C,O-chelating ligands were studied. Measured 17O chemical shifts were correlated with the additivity substituent increments for carbon atoms in the alkyl groups, and intramolecular Sn-O distance was obtained by X-ray diffraction techniques in the solid state.     

Reactions of 1-alkynylphosphonates with group (IV) complexes

This article describes our recent methods for the synthesis of substituted vinylphosphonates by reacting 1-alkynylphosphnates with group (IV) complexes. cis-Vinylphosphonates, 1,3-butadienylphosphonates, 1-(hydroxymethyl)vinylphosphonates, 2-(hydroxymethyl)vinylphosphonates, (E) 3-oxo-1-alkenylphosphonates were produced as a result of the reactions between zirconium complexes and 1-alkynylphosphonates. On the other hand, titanium complexes afford 3-aminovinylphoshonates, 1,4-bis-phosphonates, and various other di- and tri-substituted vinylphosphonates. An evaluation of access of these recently synthesized vinylphosphonates as MMP-2 inhibitors has shown that certain compounds are very potent and promising.     

Chromatographic behaviour of metal ions on tin(IV) and titanium(IV) antimonate papers

Summary The chromatographic behaviour of 49 metal ions has been studied on papers impregnated with Sn(IV) and Ti(IV) antimonates in aqueous HNO₃ and mixed solvent systems containing dimethyl sulphoxide. Numerous separations have been achieved and the Alberti equation, for Sn(IV) and Ti(IV) antimonate papers, in the modified form: –nloga K⁺=R_M + constant (a K⁺=activity of K⁺), has been verified. The effect of the concentration of impregnating reagents on these papers has been determined and compared with other papers. The effect of pH on R_f, R_i, log R_f and R_M values of metal ions has also been examined in aqueous systems.     

Zur Synthese von Bor-Schwefel(IV)-Stickstoff-Heterocyclen

Synthesis of Boron-Sulfur(IV)-Nitrogen Heterocycles The reaction of bis(lithio.tert.-butylamino)phenylborane with tert.-butyldichlorosulfimide and bischlorodimethylsilylsulfodiimide respectively leads to four- or eight-membered heterocycles. The disulfanebridge of one dithiazadiborolidine can be replaced by the ? N?S?N-sequence to yield a Thiatriazadiborine. ¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C-NMR, mass spectra, and analytical data are reported and discussed.     

Studies on monocyclopentadienyl titanium(IV) dithiocarbamato complexes

Titanium(IV) dithiocarbamato complexes of the typesCpTi(S₂CNHR)Cl₂ andCpTi(S₂CNHR)₂Cl, whereR=C₈H₅N₂S, C₉H₅N₂SCl₂ and C₉H₇N₂S, have been prepared by the reaction of monocyclopentadienyl titanium(IV) trichloride with the potassium salt of the appropriate dithiocarbamic acid in anhydrous dichloromethane. Conductance and infrared studies indicate that these complexes are non-electrolytes in which all dithiocarbamate ligands are bidentate. Therefore, 5 and 6 coordinate structures can be assigned toCpTi(S₂CNHR)Cl₂ andCpTi(S₂CNHR)₂Cl complexes, respectively.¹H-NMR spectra indicate that there is rapid rotation of the cyclopentadienyl ring about the metal ring axis.

Zusammenfassung Es wurden Titan(IV)-dithiocarbamat-Komplexe vom TypCpTi(S₂CNHR)Cl₂ undCpTi(S₂CNHR)₂Cl mitR=C₈H₅N₂S, C₉H₅N₂SCl₂ und C₉H₇N₂S mittels der Reaktion von Monocyclopentadienyltitan(IV)trichlorid mit dem Kaliumsalz der entsprechenden Dithiocarbaminsäure in wasserfreiem Dichlormethan dargestellt. Leitfähigkeitsmessungen und IR-Untersuchungen zeigen, daß diese Komplexe Nichtelektrolyte sind, bei denen alle Dithiocarbamat-Liganden zweizähnig sind. Demnach können 5-, bzw. 6-koordinierte Strukturen für die Komplexe des TypsCpTi(S₂CNHR)Cl₂, bzw.CpTi(S₂CNHR)₂Cl angenommen werden. Die¹H-NMR Spektren zeigen eine rasche Rotation des Cyclopentadienylrings um die Metall-Ring Achse an.

     

Two conformers in the solid state for a novel organotin(IV) complex of a phosphoramidate: Syntheses, spectroscopic study and crystal structures of several new organotin(IV) complexes of N-benzoylphosphoric triamides

Several novel organotin(IV) complexes with formula SnCl₂(CH₃)₂(X)₂, X = C₆H₅C(O)NHP(O)(NC₄H₈)₂ (1), C₆H₅C(O)NHP(O)(NC₅H₁₀)₂ (2), C₆H₅C(O)NHP(O)[N(CH₃)(C₆H₁₁)]₂ (3), C₆H₅C(O)NHP(O)[NH-C(CH₃)₃]₂ (4) were synthesized and characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P NMR, IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The structures have been determined for each of the four compounds. Compound 1 exists in the form of two symmetrically independent molecules in the crystalline state due to differences in their similar torsion angles. In all of the four structures there are intramolecular -Sn-Cl?H-N- hydrogen bonds, in addition to weak C-H?O and C-H?Cl hydrogen bonds. Both ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra show the coupling of ^119/117Sn nuclei with methyl proton and carbon atoms. The δ(³¹P) of these complexes are in upfields with respect to their corresponding reported ligands. The spectroscopic and structural properties of these complexes were compared with those corresponding ligands.     

Synthesis of monoorganotin(IV) chloride complexes of cis-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene: Solution and solid state structures

Organotin(IV) complexes of the type [RSnCl₃(cis-Ph₂PCHCHPPh₂)] [R = Me (1), ⁿBu (2), Ph (3)] were prepared by the reaction of RSnCl₃ with the rigid bisphosphine ligand, cis-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene in dichloromethane. The complexes have been characterized both in solution and the solid state. Low temperature ³¹P and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR studies indicate two different phosphorus environments. The crystal structures indicate a weak but chelating mode of coordination of the two phosphorus atoms to tin, leading to a distorted octahedral geometry. In solution the complexes 1-3 undergo a redistribution reaction to form [SnCl₄(cis-Ph₂PCHCHPPh₂)] (4) as one of the products. In order to confirm the redistribution, complex 4 has been prepared separately and characterized both structurally and spectrally.     

Organosilicon(IV) and organotin(IV) complexes as biocides and nematicides: synthetic,spectroscopic and biological studies of N∩N donor sulfonamide imine and its chelates

A brief account is given of the synthesis and stereochemistry and the antibacterial, antifungal, nematicidal and insecticidal behaviour of organosilicon(IV) and organotin(IV) complexes of a biologically potent ligand, 2‐acetylfuransulfaguanidine. The unimolar and bimolar substitution products have been characterized by elemental analyses, conductance measurements, molecular weight determinations, and spectral studies, viz. IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, UV, ²⁹Si NMR and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra. The data support the binding of the nitrogen atom to the metal atom in R₃M(N^∩N), [R₂M(N^∩N)₂ and R₂M(N^∩N)Cl [(R = Me/Ph and M = Si(IV) and Sn(IV)] types of complex. Based on these studies, with coordination number five and six a trigonal bipyramidal and an octahedral geometry have been proposed for the resulting derivatives. The free ligand (N^∩NH) and its respective metal complexes were tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms to assess their antimicrobial properties. The results are indeed positive. In addition to these studies, the complexes also show good nematicidal and insecticidal properties. The results of these findings have been discussed in detail.

The chemistry,properties, and characterization of organotin(IV) complexes of 2-(N-naphthylamido)benzoic acid

2-(N-naphthylamido)benzoic acid was synthesized by the reaction of phthalic anhydride with naphthylamine in glacial acetic acid at room temperature. Complexes 1–9 were synthesized under reflux in good yield with general formula R_{4? n} SnL _n (R = Me, n-Bu, Ph, n-Oct, Bz and n = 2, 3), which were studied by microanalysis, IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn), and mass spectrometry. Cytotoxicity of the synthesized compounds was checked against Brine-shrimp larvae. In vitro activities against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi were also determined. Antimicrobial activities show that species with tetrahedral geometry in solution are more toxic.
