Heterocyclo-Substituted Sulfa Drugs: Part XII. Mercapto-S-Azo-Benzothiazol Dyes and Their Metal Complexes

New azo sulfadrugs of 2-mercapto-S-azo ( p '-heterocyclo-substituted benzene-sulfonyl) benzothiazole derivatives (L 1 and L 2 ) were synthesized by coupling of p '-heterocyclo-substituted-benzene-sulphonyl diazonium salts with 2-mercapto-benzothiazole in acid medium. The corresponding iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), and mercury(II) chelates were prepared in a 1:1 metal to ligand molar ratio. The ligands and their chelates were characterized on the basis of microanalysis, UV, IR, and H 1 -NMR spectrometry. Thermal decomposition of the complexes was studied in static air. On the basis of the thermogravimetric curves some decomposition steps could be correlated with the proper decomposition products. The photochemical behavior of the ligands and their complexes were investigated. The photosensitivity shown by the complexes was attributed to the photoreactivity of their free ligands. The ligands and their chelates were screened in vitro for their antimicrobial activities (antibacterial and antifungal). The complexes induce a remarkable increase in the antimicrobial activity compared to the corresponding ligands.     

COMPLEXES OF GALLIUM(III) WITH HYDROXYAROMATIC LIGANDS

Abstract

The equilibria between gallium(III) ion and selected hydroxyaromatic and dihydroxyaromatic ligands at 25°C, μ=0.100 M (KNO₃) have been determined. Potentiometric measurements on 1:1, 2:1, and 3:1 molar ratios of ligand to Ga(III) have been made as a function of degree of neutralization over the entire accessible ?log [H⁺] scale. Calculations were carried out so as to take account of competing hydrolytic reactions, and formation constants of gallium(III) with chromotropic acid, 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid, 5-sulfosalicylic acid, and 1,2-dihydroxy-benzene-3,5-disulfonic acid were obtained. Stable hydroxo chelates do not form under the reaction conditions employed. The protonation constants of the ligands and the formation constants of the gallium chelates are discussed and compared with previously published work on these gallium chelates and on chelates of “analogous” metal ions such as those of Fe(III) and A1(III).     

Thermometric titration studies of mixed ligand complexes of thorium

Mixed-ligand chelates consisting of two different multidentate ligands linked to a central thorium(IV) ion have been prepared in aqueous solution and their heats of formation studied thermo metrically. Pyrocatechol, tiron, chromotropic acid, potassium hydrogen phthalate, 8-hydroxyquinoline-S-sulphonic acid, iminodiacetic acid, 5-sulphosalicylic acid and salicylic acid were used as the secondary ligands, while ethylenediaminetetra-acetate and 1, 2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N',N'-tetra-acetate were used as primary ligands. DeltaH values for the overall reactions are given, and where possible, the DeltaH and DeltaS values for the specific secondary ligand addition were calculated. The overall stability of the mixed-ligand chelates and the enhanced stability of EDTA mixed chelates relative to the analogous DCTA chelates were found to be due to entropy rather than enthalpy effects.     

Mixed ligand complexes of bis(phenylimine) Schiff base ligands incorporating pyridinium moiety Synthesis, characterization and antibacterial activity

The synthesis and structural characterization of mixed ligand complexes derived from 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehydebis(o-hydroxyphenylimine), 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehydebis(p-hydroxyphenylimine) (1(ry) ligands) and 2-aminopyridne (2(ry) ligand) are reported. The ligands and their transition metal complexes were characterized on the bases of their elemental analyses, IR, solid reflectance, magnetic moment, molar conductance and thermal analysis (TGA). The mixed ligand complexes are formed in the 1:1:1 (M:L(1) or L(2):L') ratio as found from the elemental analyses and found to have the formulae [MX(2)(L(1) or L(2))(L')].nH(2)O where M = Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II), L(1) = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehydebis(p-hydroxyphenylimine), L(2) = 2,6-pyridine dicarboxaldehydebis(o-hydroxyphenylimine), L' = 2-aminopyridine, X = Cl(-) in case of Cu(II) complex and Br(-) in case of Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes and y = 0-3. The molar conductance data reveal that the chelates are non-electrolytes. IR spectra show that the Schiff bases are coordinated to the metal ions in a terdentate manner with NNN donor sites of the pyridine-N and two azomethine-N. While 2-aminopyridine coordinated to the metal ions via its pyridine-N. Magnetic and solid reflectance spectra are used to infer the coordinating capacity of the ligand and the geometrical structure of these complexes are found to be octahedral. The thermal behaviour of these chelates shows that the hydrated water molecules and the anions are removed in a successive two steps followed immediately by decomposition of the ligands (L(1), L(2) and L') in the subsequent steps. The activation thermodynamic parameters, such as, E*, DeltaH*, DeltaS* and DeltaG* are calculated from the TG curves and discussed. The ligands and their metal chelates have been screened for their antimicrobial activities and the findings have been reported, explained and compared with some known antibiotics.

Condensed heteroaromatic systems including a thiophene ring.

The thermal stabilities of 2-mercapto-3-formylbenzo[b]thiophene and its chelates with Cu(II) and Co(II), of 2-mercapto-3-iminomethylbenzo[b]thiophene and its chelates with Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II), and of N,N′-bis(2-mercaptobenzo [b]-3-thenylidene)ethylenediamine and its chelates with Cu(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) were investigated by differential-thermal and thermogravimetric analysis. The temperature of the onset of decomposition and the character of the decomposirion of the ligands and chelates were established. It was found that the investigated chelates can be arranged in the following order with respect to increasing thermal stability: Cu < Co < Zn < Ni. The most thermally stable ligand is N,N-bis (2-mercaptobenzo[b]-3-thenylidene)ethylenediamine. The effectiveness of the ligands and chelates as stabilizers for polycaproamide fibers were compared. It was found that of the investigated compounds, the copper chelates are effective stabilizers. In a study of the thermal behavior of the copper chelates in an inert gas atmosphere it was established that the character of the thermal decomposition of the most effective of them — {it(N,N′-bis)2-mercaptobenzo[b]-3-thenylidene)-ethylenediaminato} Cu(II) — is identical both in the presence of air oxygen and in a nitrogen atmosphere, i.e., the chelate does not undergo oxidation at temperatures up to 270?C.     

Structural and spectroscopic study of reactions between chelating zinc-binding groups and mimics of the matrix metalloproteinase and disintegrin metalloprotease catalytic sites: the coordination chemistry of metalloprotease inhibition

To understand the coordination chemistry of zinc-binding groups (ZBGs) with catalytic zinc centers in matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and disintegrin metalloproteases (ADAMs), we have undertaken a model compound study centered around tris(3,5-methylphenypyrazolyl)hydroboratozinc(II) hydroxide and aqua complexes ([Tp(Ph,Me)ZnOH] and [Tp(Ph,Me)Zn(OH2)]+, respectively, wherein (Tp(Ph,Me))- = hydrotris(3,5-methylphenylpyrazolyl)borate) and the products of their reactions with a class of chelating Schiff's base ligands. The results show that the protic ligands, HL (HL = N-propyl-1-(5-methyl-2-imidazolyl)methanimine (5-Me-4-ImHPr), N-propyl-1-(4-imidazolyl)methanimine (4-ImHPr), and N-propyl-1-(2-imidazolyl)methanimine (2-ImHPr)), react with [Tp(Ph,Me)ZnOH] and give products with the general formula [Tp(Ph,Me)ZnL], whereas reactions with neutral aprotic ligands, L' (L' = N-propyl-1-(1-methyl-2-imidazolyl)methanimine (1-Me-2-ImPr) and N-propyl-1-(2-thiazolyl)methanimine (2-TaPr)), yield the corresponding [Tp(Ph,Me)ZnL]+ complexes. Although the phenol group of N-propyl-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)methanimine (2-HOPhPr) is protic, this ligand forms a cationic four-coordinate complex containing an intraligand hydrogen bond. The solid-state structures of these complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and the results showed that the protic ligands form five-membered chelates of the Zn2+ ion. All ligands displace the aqua ligand in [Tp(Ph,Me)Zn(OH2)]+ to yield complexes having 1H NMR spectra consistent with the formation of five membered chelates. The 1H resonance frequencies of the chelating ligands typically shift upfield upon coordination to the zinc center, due to ring current effects from the pendant phenyl groups of the (Tp(Ph,Me))- ligand. Thus, the 1H NMR spectra provide a convenient and sensitive means of tracking the solution reactions by titration. The resulting series of spectra showed that the stabilities of the chelates in solution depend on the propensity of the ligands to deprotonate upon chelation of the zinc center. The behaviors of these bidentate ZBGs provide insight into the structural and electronic factors that contribute to the stabilities of inhibited MMPs and ADAMs and suggest that the proton acidity of the coordinated ZBG may be a crucial criterion for inhibitor design.     

Metal chelation aptitudes of bis(o-azaheteroaryl)methanes as tuned by heterocycle charge demands

We describe the synthesis of a number of 1,3-azol-2-yl-, 1,3-benzazol-2-yl-, and azinyl-based bis(o-azaheteroaryl)methanes (LH, L(-) = Het(2)CH(-)) and their coordinating properties toward divalent transition metals (Zn, Cu, Co, Ni, Hg, Pd). This extended investigation includes both symmetrical and unsymmetrical ligands based on several substituted and/or unsubstituted thiazole, benzothiazole, benzoxazole, benzimidazole, pyridine, and quinoline derivatives. Depending on the structure and electron properties of the ligand, a vast set of neutral chelates ML(2) were obtained, where the ligand is present in its carbanionic form L(-). Additionally, we have prepared salt complexes [M(LH)(n)]X(m), where the ligand is present as a neutral system. Neutral chelates were typically obtained by the reaction of the ligand with metal acetates in alcoholic solution; salt complexes were formed by reaction with other metal salts such as chlorides. By exploring the coordinating properties of several bisheteroarylmethane ligands based on heteroaromatics of variable pi-electron structure and substitution pattern, we demonstrate that the formation of neutral chelates is strictly dependent on the electron-withdrawing capacity (charge demand) of the heteroaromatic moiety. The latter primarily dictates the efficiency by which the negative charge of the anionic ligand L(-) is stabilized by delocalization in ML(2) and, therefore, the stability of the chelate itself. On the basis of the large number and the variable nature of the nitrogen ligands used, we confirm the general validity of the charge-demand-dependent formation of chelates. This key factor can therefore be used for the efficient design of new pi-deficient heteroaromatic nitrogen ligands in chelates of great potential in many synthetic, catalytic, and technological fields.     

Phosphorescent [3 + 2 + 1] coordinated Ir(iii) cyano complexes for achieving efficient phosphors and their application in OLED devices

A series of neutral [3 + 2 + 1] coordinated iridium complexes bearing tridentate bis-NHC carbene chelates (2,6-bisimidazolylidene benzene), bidentate chelates (C^N ligands, e.g. derivatives of 2-phenylpridine), and monodentate ions (halides and pseudo-halides, such as Br, I, OCN and CN ions) have been systematically designed and synthesized. X-ray single crystal structure characterization revealed that the nitrogen atom in C^N ligands is located trans to the carbon atom in the benzene ring in tridentate chelates, while the coordinating carbon atom in C^N ligands is located trans to the monodentate ligands. Photophysical studies reveal that the C^N ligands play a vital role in tuning the UV absorption and emission properties, while the tridentate bis-NHC carbene chelates influence the lowest absorption band and emission energy when compared to heteroleptic Ir(ppy)2(acac) [i.e. molar absorptivities at ∼450 nm for ppy-OCN and Ir(ppy)2(acac) are 350 M⁻¹ cm⁻¹ and 1520 M⁻¹ cm⁻¹ and emission maximum peaks are at 465 nm and 515 nm respectively]. Among monodentate ligands that the complexes bear, the group containing the cyanide ligand displays higher emission energy, higher photophysical quantum yields, longer triplet lifetimes and better electrochemical and thermal stabilities than those of cyanate and bromide. Particularly, a blue organic light-emitting diode (OLED) based on dfppy-CN exhibited a maximum external quantum efficiency of 22.94% with CIE coordinates of (0.14, 0.24). Furthermore, a small efficiency roll-off of 5.7% was observed for this device at 1000 cd m⁻².

Novel chiral diimines and diamines derived from sugars in copper-catalysed asymmetric cyclopropanation

New chiral diimino and diamino ligands derived from α-d-mannose and α-d-glucose are described. The ligands are obtained by introducing the appropriate nitrogen functions at C(2) and C(3) of the sugar rings. The ability of the new chelates to promote the asymmetric copper(I)-catalysed cyclopropanation of styrene has been investigated. The nature of both the sugars and the chelates is crucial in determining the enantioselectivity of the reaction.     

Regioselective lithium diisopropylamide-mediated ortholithiation of 1-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene: role of autocatalysis, lithium chloride catalysis, and reversibility

Ortholithiation of 1-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene with lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) in tetrahydrofuran at -78 °C displays characteristics of reactions in which aggregation events are rate limiting. Metalation with lithium-chloride-free LDA involves a rate-limiting deaggregation via dimer-based transition structures. The post-rate-limiting proton transfers are suggested to involve highly solvated triple ions. Autocatalysis by the resulting aryllithiums or catalysis by traces (<100 ppm) of LiCl diverts the reaction through di- and trisolvated monomer-based pathways for metalation at the 2 and 6 positions, respectively. The regiochemistry is dictated by a combination of kinetically controlled metalations overlaid by an equilibration involving diisopropylamine that is shown to occur by the microscopic reverse of the monomer-based metalations.     

Metal chelates of ampicillin versus amoxicillin: synthesis,structural investigation,and biological studies

Solid chelates derived from some alkaline earth and transition metal complexes with ampicillin (Hamp, a) and amoxicillin (Hamox, b) were synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, molar conductivity, IR, magnetic susceptibility, and thermogravimetric studies. Both drugs behave as tetradentate ligands coordinating to metal through amino, imino, and carboxylate as well as through β-lactamic carbonyl. All chelates have octahedral geometry except Cu(II) complexes which have square planar structure and uranium has pentagonal bipyramidal coordination. ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR of the Zn(II) and UO₂(VI) chelates are compared with the free ligands. The antimicrobial activity of the prepared chelates was determined.

Adduct formation of copper(II) chelates of 1-hydroxypyrazole 2-oxides with substituted pyridines

Equilibrium constants have been determined for the adduct formation of 10 copper(II) chelates of the derivatives of 1-hydroxypyrazole 2-oxide with nine substituted pyridines at room temperature in chloroform solution. These adducts were shown to have 1:1 stoichiometry. All the stabilities of the adducts were governed by: (1) σ-donating ability of the nitrogen atom in the substituted pyridines to the copper(II) chelates, (2) electron-attracting forces of substituents at the 3- and 4-positions of the phenyl ring in the chelate ligands, and (3) the magnitude of the polar substituent constant of the substituents in the pyrazole ring of the chelate ligands.     

IR, UV-Vis, magnetic and thermal characterization of chelates of some catecholamines and 4-aminoantipyrine with Fe(III) and Cu(II)

The dopamine derivatives participate in the regulation of wide variety of physiological functions in the human body and in medication life. Increase and/or decrease in the concentration of dopamine in human body reflect an indication for diseases such as Schizophrenia and/or Parkinson diseases. Alpha-methyldopa (alpha-MD) in tablets is used in medication of hypertension. The Fe(III) and Cu(II) chelates with coupled products of adrenaline hydrogen tartarate (AHT), levodopa (LD), alpha-MD and carbidopa (CD) with 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP) are prepared and characterized. Different physico-chemical methods like IR, magnetic and UV-Vis spectra are used to investigate the structure of these chelates. Fe(III) form 1:2 (M:catecholamines) chelates while Cu(II) form 1:1 chelates. Catecholamines behave as a bidentate mono- or dibasic ligands in binding to the metal ions. IR spectra show that the catecholamines are coordinated to the metal ions in a bidentate manner with O,O donor sites of the phenolic -OH. Magnetic moment measurements reveal the presence of Fe(III) chelates in octahedral geometry while the Cu(II) chelates are square planar. The thermal decomposition of Fe(III) and Cu(II) complexes is studied using thermogravimetric (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) techniques. The water molecules are removed in the first step followed immediately by decomposition of the ligand molecules. The activation thermodynamic parameters, such as, energy of activation, enthalpy, entropy and free energy change of the complexes are evaluated and the relative thermal stability of the complexes are discussed.     

Coordination compounds of hydrazine derivatices with transition metals—XIX: Redox reactions of Cu(II) salts with thiosemicarbazide and hydrazine-S-methyl dithiocarboxylate schiff bases

Schiff base ligands derived from hydrazine-S-methyl dithiocarboxylate (R₁R₂CNNH·CSSMe) can react with Cu(II) salts to give either Cu(I) or Cu(II) chelates depending on the anion of the salt used, the nature of R₁ and R₂ in the ligand molecule and the temperature of the reaction medium. A tentative mechanism for the reduction of Cu(II) salts by these ligands was proposed. From the magnetic measurements, electronic and ESR spectral data the structure of the Cu(II) chelates was assigned.     

Ternary complexes: Equilibrium study of mixed complexes of uranyl ion with thiodicarboxylic and simple dicarboxylic acids in aqueous medium

The potentiometric studies of the mixed-ligand complexes of uranyl ion with dicarboxylic acids such as thiodiglycolic, thiodipropionic, malonic, succinic, itaconic, glutaric and adipic acids have been made at a temperature of 30±0.1°C and μ =0.1 M (NaClO₄). Uranyl forms 1:1 complexes with all the ligands except malonic and glutaric acids with which it forms both 1:1 and 1:2 chelates.Ternary chelates of uranyl - thiodiglycolic - dicarboxylic and uranyl - thiodipropionic - dicarboxylic acid systems have been studied. The mixed-ligand chelate formation is also discussed on the basis of the calculated concentrations of simple and mixed species in the uranyl - thiodipropionic - malonic acid system. The equilibrium constant K_2YX is dependent on the product of acid dissociation constants of the secondary ligands. The overall stability constant (β_XY) is found to depend on the 1:1 binary stabilities of the metal chelates.     

Synthesis, characterization and thermal studies on metal complexes of new azo compounds derived from sulfa drugs

Four new azo ligands, L1 and HL2-4, of sulfa drugs have been prepared and characterized. [MX(2)(L1)(H(2)O)(m)].nH(2)O; [(MX(2))(2)(HL2 or HL3)(H(2)O)(m)].nH(2)O and [M(2)X(3)(L4)(H(2)O)].nH(2)O; M=Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) (X=Cl) and Zn(II) (X=AcO); m=0-4 and n=0-3, complexes were prepared. Elemental and thermal analyses (TGA and DTA), IR, solid reflectance spectra, magnetic moment and molar conductance measurements have accomplished characterization of the complexes. The IR data reveal that HL1 and HL2-3 ligands behave as a bidentate neutral ligands while HL4 ligand behaves as a bidentate monoionic ligand. They coordinated to the metal ions via the carbonyl O, enolic sulfonamide S(O)OH, pyrazole or thiazole N and azo N groups. The molar conductance data reveal that the chelates are non-electrolytes. From the solid reflectance spectra and magnetic moment data, the complexes were found to have octahedral, tetrahedral and square planar geometrical structures. The thermal behaviour of these chelates shows that the water molecules (hydrated and coordinated) and the anions are removed in a successive two steps followed immediately by decomposition of the ligand in the subsequent steps. The activation thermodynamic parameters, such as, E*, DeltaH*, DeltaS* and DeltaG* are calculated from the TG curves applying Coats-Redfern method.     

Mechanism of acylation of lithium phenylacetylide with a Weinreb amide

Additions of lithium phenylacetylide to a Weinreb amide are described. Dimeric lithium acetylide reacts via a monosolvated monomer-based transition structure. The robust tetrahedral intermediate forms sequentially a C(1) 2:2 mixed tetramer with the excess lithium acetylide and a 1:3 (alkoxide-rich) mixed tetramer. The stabilities of the mixed tetramers are consistent with a pronounced autoinhibition.
