Syntheses,Crystal Structures and DNA-binding Properties of Zn(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ) and Co(Ⅱ) Compounds Containing Thiazole Derivatives

Zn(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ) and Co(Ⅱ) compounds(1～3) based on 2-(2-pyridyl)benzothiazole(bpt) and terephthalic acid(PTA) were synthesized. The crystal structures of [Zn(bpt)(PTA)2](1), [Ni(bpt)(PTA)2](2), and [Co(bpt)(PTA)2](3) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, which shows that all the three complexes belong to monoclinic system with space group P21/c. Time-dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) calculation is performed on a reference structure of compound 3. The excited electrons mainly localized at the π* of ligand 2-(2-pyridyl)benzothiazole, which will be convenient for them to bind with the DNA reacting sites. Fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet(UV) spectroscopy and viscosity were used to characterize the interaction of the compounds with Calf thymus DNA(CT-DNA). The results indicate that compounds 1～3 bind to CT-DNA and have a strong interaction with DNA. The compounds can probably bind to CT-DNA via a non-intercalative mode as concluded by studying the viscosity of a DNA solution in the presence of the compounds. This combination can effectively break DNA, which speculates that these three compounds may interact with the cancer cell DNA in this binding mode, thereby damaging the cancer cells.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and DNA-binding Properties of Cd(Ⅱ), Co(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) Complexes Containing Imidazolium Derivatives

Cd(Ⅱ), Co(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) complexes(1~4) based on 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole(pbm) and 4,4'-oxybisbenzoic acid(H2odc) were synthesized. The formulas of these complexes are [Cd(pbm)(odc)2](1), [Co(pbm)(odc)2](2), [Cu(pbm)(odc)2](3) and [Zn(pbm)(odc)2](4) confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, which shows that complexes 1, 2 and 4 belong to monoclinic system with space group P21/n, while complex 3 belongs to monoclinic system with space group P21/c. The binding properties of complexes 1~4 with CT-DNA are evaluated by ultraviolet spectrum, fluorescence spectra and viscosity measurements. The results indicate that complexes 1~4 have strong interaction with CT-DNA binding. These complexes exhibit an electrostatic or groove mode in respect of binding with DNA, which can effectively destroy DNA. And this binding mode may be applied to the interaction between the complexes and cancer cell DNA. Therefore, we hope to provide a theoretical and scientific basis for the research of anti-cancer drugs.     

4′-(2-Methylphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine: coordination chemistry with Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ag(I)

The synthesis of 4′-(2-methylphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (L) has been improved. The coordination chemistry of the ligand was explored using Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Ag(I) ions. X-ray crystallography, elemental analysis, NMR, and mass spectrometry were used to characterize the 13 new compounds that have been synthesized. Under different reaction conditions, Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) produced discrete complexes, sometimes containing more than one metal ion, while Ag(I) furnished a polymeric spiral complex in which the central pyridine nitrogen of each terpyridine ligand bridges two Ag(I) ions. Crystallographically characterized complexes are [Ni(L)₂]Cl₂, [Ni₂Cl₄(L)₂], [Ni(L)(OH₂)₃]Cl₂, [Ni(L)₂]Br₂, [Cu(L)(OH₂)(OSO₃)], [Cu₃Cl₆(L)₂], [Cu(L)(OH)(OH₂)₂]PF₆, [Cu(L)₂](OTf)₂, [Cu(L)(OAc)₂], [Zn(L)(OAc)₂], [Zn(L)Cl₂], [Zn(L)₂](NO₃)₂, [{Ag₂(μ-L)₂(μ-NO₃)}_n](NO₃)_n.     

Complex formation of Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Co(II), and Cd(II) acetates with 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-hexamethyldipyrrolylmethene

The reactions of complex formation of Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II) acetates with 3,3′,4,4′5,5′-hexamethyl-2,2′-dipyrrolylmethene (HL) in DMF were studied by the electronic spectroscopy and calorimetric titration methods at 298.15 K. The main products of the above reactions are [ML₂] chelates. In the case of Cu and Ni salts, the process occurs through the spectrally recorded stage of formation of the heteroligand [ML(AcO)] complexes. The reaction with Cd acetate terminates at the stage of the heteroligand complex formation due to the large radius and decreasing electron affinity of the Cd²⁺ ion. The effect of the metal nature appears in the increasing thermodynamic stability of single-type complexes in the series [ML₂]: Ni(II) < Zn(II) < Co(II) < Cu(II) and [ML(AcO)]: Cd(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II).

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Two-photon Absorption Properties of 4′-(N,N-di(4-hydroxymethyl phenyl) amino)phenyl-2,2′:6′,2'-terpyridine

A novel donor-acceptor(D-A) triphenylamino terpyridine derivative L was facilely synthesized and fully characterized, and its single crystals were obtained and determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1 with a = 11.760(5), b =12.516(5), c = 12.850(5) , α = 67.141(5), β = 65.284(5), γ = 75.876(5)o, Mr = 621.54, V = 1575.6(11) 3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.310 g/cm3, μ = 0.245 mm-1, F(000) = 648, the final R = 0.0671 and w R = 0.1869 for 11328 observed reflections with Ⅰ 2σ(Ⅰ). Linear and nonlinear optical properties of terpyridine derivative L were systematically investigated. The maximum two-photon cross-section of L was 382.5 GM(Goeppert-Mayer), measured by two-photon excited fluorescence(TPEF) method. This result demonstrates that the increase of intramolecular charge transfer(ICT) leads to enhanced two-photon absorption(2PA), which could be achieved by introducing additional electron-donor groups to the molecular framework.

Crystal Structures of Molecular Adducts between Uranyl Nitrate and 2,2′ : 6′,2′′-Terpyridine or 2,2′-Bipyridyl

Complexes of uranyl nitrate with aromatic molecular ligands : [UO₂Terpy(NO₃)₂] and (H₂Terpy)₂[UO₂(NO₃)₂(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₄ · 4H₂O (Terpy 2,2:6,2-terpyridine), (Hbipy)[UO₂(NO₃)₃] and [(UO₂)₂(Bipy)₂O₂(NO₃)₂] (Bipy—2,2-bipyridyl) and (HPy)₄[(UO₂)₂(NO₃)₄(OH)₂](NO₃)₂ (Py—pyridine) were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. In all these compounds, the U(VI) atom has the hexagonal bipyramidal environment. The U–O bond lengths in the UO₂ ²⁺ have close values. In the equatorial planes, the U–N bond lengths with the Bipy and Terpy ligands are identical, whereas the U–O bond lengths depend on the type of the ligand. The lengths of the equatorial bonds increase in the sequence U–N > U–O_nitr > U–O_hydr > U–O_perox. The geometric characteristics of the coordinated and solvate Terpy and Bipy molecules are different. The lengths of the N–O bonds in the NO₃ ^– groups depend on the participation of the O atom in the coordination of the central atom, the coordination mode, and the formation of hydrogen bonds.     

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Zinc(II) and Nickel(II) Complexes Involving Reduced Nitroxide Radicals

1 INTRODUCTION The synthesis of new molecular magnetic mate- rials that combine transition metal ions and pure organic radicals as ligating sites has attracted much more attention in the last few years[1~4].

Syntheses and structural characterizations of a new benzyl(4-methoxyphenyl)dithiophosphinic acid and its Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Ni–pyridine complexes

Benzyl(4-methoxyphenyl)dithiophosphinic acid (HL) was obtained as solid and was treated with the NiCl₂6H₂O, CoCl₂6H₂O, ZnCl_2, and CdCl₂ to prepare its Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) complexes. The nickel complex was further treated with pyridine which led to the formation of octahedral dipyridine derivative. HL was obtained through the addition reaction of the perthiophosphonic acid anhydride Lawesson reagent, (LR), [2,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane-2,4-disulfide], with the corresponding Grignard compound (benzylmagnesium bromide) in diethyl ether medium.

The complexes were all of the stoichiometry of [M(L)₂]_x, with x = 1 for M = Ni²⁺ and x = 2 for M = Co²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺. The coordination geometry was square planar in the nickel(II) complex and tetrahedral in the others. Similar to many other nickel(II) complexes, the Ni(L)₂ reacts reversibly with pyridine to yield the octahedral complex ({(Py)₂Ni(L)₂}).

The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis; MS, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopies. The magnetic susceptibilities of the complexes were measured to confirm the hybridization patterns and the geometries. Single-crystal X-ray analyses of Ni(L)₂ and [Co(L)₂]₂ complexes were also carried out to prove the molecular topologies.
