The deprotonated molecular ions or halide adducts are usually observed. ESI–MS data demonstrate the usefulness of the method for efficient characterization of metal complexes in solution.

Palladium(II) complexes with R2edda-derived ligands

Four palladium(II) complexes with R₂edda ligands, dichlorido(O,O′-dialkylethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetate)palladium(II) monohydrates, [PdCl₂(R₂edda)]?H₂O, R = Me, Et, n-Pr, i-Bu, and the new ligand precursor i-Bu₂edda?2HCl?H₂O, O,O′-diisobutylethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetate dihydrochloride monohydrate, were synthesized and characterized by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. DFT calculations were performed for the palladium(II) complexes and a high possibility for isomer formation due to stereogenic N ligand atoms was confirmed. Moreover, DFT simulations revealed energetic profile of isomer formation. Computational outcomes are in agreement with spectroscopic instrumental findings, both strongly indicating a non-stereoselective reaction between selected esters and K₂[PdCl₄], forming isomers.     

Activity of some platinum(II/IV) complexes with edda-type ligands against human adenocarcinoma HeLa cells

Cisplatin analogues, cis-dichloro(ethylenediamine-N,N′-di-3-propanoic acid)platinum(II) (1) and cis-iodo(ethylenediamine-N,N′-di-3-propanoic acid)platinum(II) (2), as well as trans-dichloro-(ethylenediamine-N,N′-di-3-propanoato)platinum(IV) (3), trans-dibromo(ethylenediamine -N,N′-di-3-propanoato)platinum(IV) (4), trans-dichloro(propylenediamine-N,N′-diacetato)-platinum(IV) (5) and trans-dibromo(propylenediamine-N,N′-diacetato)platinum(IV) (6), -([Pt(H₂eddp)Cl₂], [Pt(Heddp)I], trans-[Pt(eddp)Cl₂], trans-[Pt(eddp)Br₂], trans-[Pt(pdda)Cl₂] and trans-[Pt(pdda)Br₂], respectively) were used to assess antitumor selectivity against human adenocarcinoma HeLa cells. The results show that different oxidation states of platinum, different halide ligands, chelating aminocarboxylato and diamine backbones have similar effects with edda-type ligands and activity is lower than for cisplatin.     

Dichloro and amino acid cobalt(III) complexes of N,N′-diethylethylenediamine-N,N′-Di-α-butyrate ligand

A novel linear flexible ONNO-type tetradentate ligand, N,N′-diethylethylenediamine-N,N′-di-α-butyrate (deedba), and the dichloro, diaqua and amino acid (glycine, -alanine, -phenylalanine) cobalt(III) complexes of deedba have been synthesized via an H₂O₂ oxidation method. During the preparation of these complexes, the ligand has coordinated geospecifically to the cobalt(III) ion to give only one isomer, s-cis, which has been characterized by electronic absorption, ¹H NMR and IR spectra, and elemental analysis. It is of interest that this is one of the few Co^III(edda)X₂-type complex preparations, which gives only one isomer with geoselectivity.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of trans-Dichloro(Ethylenediamine- -N,N′-DI-3-Propionato)Platinum(IV) Monohydrate

This paper reports the first synthesized Pt(IV) complex with ethylenediamine-N,N'-di-3-propionato ligand (eddp). The crystal structure of trans-[Pt(eddp)Cl₂]·H₂O complex has been determined. Pt(IV) has a distorted octahedral coordination due to an intramolecular N-H···Cl interaction.     

CIRCULAR DICHROISM AND ELECTRONIC ABSORPTION OF RHODIUM(III) EDTA-TYPE COMPLEXES: Ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetato-N,N′-di-3-propionatorhodate(III) and (S,S)-Ethylenediamine-N,N′-disuccinatorhodate(III) Ions

Abstract

Electronic absorption and CD spectra are reported for the sexidentate complexes, trans(O₅)-Rh(EDDDA)^?, trans(O₅ O₆)-Rh(EDDDA)^?, and trans(O₅)-Rh(S,S-EDDS)^? (EDDDA)=ethylenediamine-N,N′-di-3-propionate; S,S-EDDS=(S,S)-ethylenediamine-N,N′-disuccinate). Because of the sterospecific coordination of the S,S-EDDS ligand the absolute configuration of (+)_D-trans(O₅)-Rh(S,S-EDDS)^? is known to be Λ. By comparison of their CD spectra to that of the (+)_D isomer of trans(O₅)-Rh(S,S-EDDS)^?, the absolute configurations of the (?)_DEDDDA complexes are assigned tentatively.     

A correlation between infrared stretching mode absorptions and structural angular distortions for the carbonato ligand in a wide variety of complexes

The i.r. spectra of several new carbonato complexes of cobalt(III) are reported and it has been found that the bridging carbonato ligand can be distinguished from the bidentate species and possibly from the monodentate species. By comparing available X-ray structural and i.r. spectral data for a large variety of carbonato complexes a strong correlation has been found between the angular distortion (from D_3h) within the carbonato ligand and the separation between the two highest energy CO stretching modes.     

Complexation between nickel(II), cobalt(III) and hydrazones derived from pyridoxal 5′-phosphate and hydrazides of 2-,3-,4-pyridinecarboxylic acids in aqueous solution

abstract

The present work reports on stoichiometry, apparent stability constants of biologically relevant complexes of nickel(II), cobalt(III) with hydrazones derived from pyridoxal 5′-phosphate and hydrazides of 2-,3-,4-pyridinecarboxylic acids at pH 7.4, T?=?25.0?°C, I?=?0.25 determined using UV-Vis spectroscopy. The thermodynamic constants of some complexes formation (NiL, NiL₂, NiL₂H) were estimated. Cobalt(II) ion was found to be oxidized to cobalt(III). Co(II) and Co(III) form low-spin state complexes. Hydrazones binding ability (pL_0.5) in the medium mimicking biological ones towards Ni(II) and Co(III) was estimated.     

Anomalous stereochemistry of pyrazolato-3,5-dicarboxylato-bridged dinuclear chromate(III) complexes containing ethylenediamine-N,N'-dicarboxylates with entrapped unstable conformations: X-ray structure of Na[Cr2(eddp)(mu-pzdc)].6H2O

Several new pyrazolato-3,5-dicarboxylato (pzdc) bridged dinuclear chromate(III) complexes containing linear tetradentate O-N-N-O type ligands were synthesized and structurally characterized. Among them, the X-ray structure of the eddp complex Na[Cr2(eddp)(mu-pzdc)].6H2O (eddp = ethylenediamine-N,N'-dipropionate) was determined to have a (sym-cis)-(unsym-cis) geometrical configuration with intramolecular three-center hydrogen bonds, entrapping the unfavored sym-cis configuration for the Cr(eddp) moiety as well as the favored unsym-cis one. As a pair of positional disorders, there were also found to be two conformational isomers with respect to the absolute configurations of the coordinated asymmetric nitrogen atom at the G (in-plane) ring for the unsym-cis moiety. Moreover, chiral pzdc-bridged dinuclear complexes with another type of O-N-N-O ligand, 1,2-cyclohexanediamine-N,N'-diacetate (cdda), were successfully synthesized, isolated, and characterized by column chromatographic behavior, elemental analysis, and chiroptical spectra. There were two diastereomers for Na[(R,R-cdda)Cr(mu-pzdc)Cr(S,S-cdda)] and only one isomer for Na[(R,R-cdda)Cr(mu-pzdc)Cr(R,S-cdda)] and Na[(R,R-cdda)Cr(mu-pzdc)Cr(edda)] (R,R- or S,S- and R,S-cdda = R,R-trans- or S,S-trans- and R,S-cis-1,2-cyclohexanediamine-N,N'-diacetate, and edda = ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetate). From their circular dichroism (CD) spectra, these complexes could exhibit the delta-delta absolute configuration with ((sym-cis-R,R-cdda)-(unsym-cis-edda or S,S- or R,S-cdda)) geometrical configuration, indicating the abnormal eq-eq (N-Ceq) configuration for the R,R-cdda. The comparison among the CD spectra of the ((cdda)-(cdda)) complexes revealed that two diastereomers of the ((R,R-cdda)-(S,S-cdda)) complex correspond to the conformational isomers resulting from the difference in geometrical orientations of the secondary amine protons on two coordinated asymmetric nitrogen atoms with the opposite absolute configuration in the unsym-cis-S,S-cdda moiety. In a series of the pzdc-bridged Cr(III) complexes the anomalous conformations in two different geometrical configurations could be entrapped probably owing to stereognostic coordination through the intramolecular N-H...O hydrogen bond interaction.     

catena‐Poly[[[N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)propane‐1,3‐diaminato]cobalt(III)]‐μ‐azido] and catena‐poly[[[N,N′‐bis(salicyl­idene)propane‐1,3‐diaminato]cobalt(III)]‐μ‐thio­cyanato]

The two title complexes, catena‐poly[[{2,2′‐[1,3‐propane­diylbis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolato}cobalt(III)]‐μ‐azido], [Co(C₁₇H₁₆N₂O₂)(N₃)]_n, (I), and catena‐poly[[{2,2′‐[1,3‐propane­diylbis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolato}cobalt(III)]‐μ‐thio­cyanato], [Co(C₁₇H₁₆N₂O₂)(NCS)]_n, (II), are isomorphous polynuclear cobalt(III) compounds. In both structures, the Co^III atom is six‐coordinated in an octa­hedral configuration by two N atoms and two O atoms of one Schiff base, and two terminal N or S atoms from two bridging ligands. The [N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)propane‐1,3‐diaminato]cobalt(III) moieties are linked by the bridging ligands, viz. azide in (I) and thio­cyanate in (II), giving zigzag polymeric chains with backbones of the type [–Co—N—N—N—Co]_n in (I) or [–Co—N—C—S—Co]_n in (II) running along the c axis.     

Synthesis,characterization, and immobilization of nickel(II) tetradentate Schiff-base complexes on clay as heterogeneous catalysts for the oxidation of cyclooctene

Nickel(II) tetradentate Schiff-base complexes of N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)formylidene)ethane-1,2-diamine (L1), N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)formylidene)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (L2), N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)formylidene)benzene-1,2-diamine (L3), N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)formylidene)meso-stilben-1,2-diamine (L4), and N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)formylidene)propane-1,3-diamine (L5) were synthesized, characterized, and immobilized on sodium montmorillonite. The complexes were characterized by IR spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS), and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). IR and DRS data of the heterogeneous catalysts show that the Ni(II) complexes were physically entrapped within the sodium montmorillonite clay. The supported complexes show good catalytic activity for the epoxidation of cyclooctene using tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxygen source in acetonitrile. The Ni-catalyzed oxidation proceeds with 62.3% selectivity for epoxidation with 69% conversion for supported [Ni(L5)].     

Complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Pd(II) with Sulfametrole-Cyclodiphosph(V)azane Derivatives

Novel [1,3-di-[N ₁ -4-methoxy-1,2,5-thiadiazole-3-yl-sulfanilamide(sulfametrole)]-2″4-bis-[1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate]-2′,4′-dichl-orocyclodiphosph(V)azane] (III) , was prepared and their coordinating behavior towards the metal ions Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Pd(II) was studied. The structures of the isolated products are proposed based on elemental analyses, IR, UV, ¹ H, and ³¹ P NMR, ESR, magnetic susceptibility, molar ratio, conductometric titration and electrical conductivity measurements. The prepared complexes showed high to moderate bactericidal activity compared with the ligand.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of trans-dichloro(1,3-propylenediamine-n,n′-diacetato)platinum(IV) monohydrate

The trans-geometrical isomer of the first Pt(IV) complex with the tetradentate ligand 1,3-propylenediamine-N,N′-diacetate ion (pdda) was prepared by a direct synthesis from potassium hexachloroplatinate(IV) and pdda in the presence of lithium hydroxide. The crystal structure of trans-[Pt(pdda)Cl₂]·H₂O complex has been determined. The Pt(IV) ion has a distorted octahedral coordination due to intramolecular N–H···Cl interactions.     

Synthesis, geometrical and absolute configuration of the tris(S-arginine)cobalt(III) trinitrate isomers and synthesis and molecular structure of (-)589-anti(N)-Δ-cis(N),cis(O)-Λ-cis(N),cis(O)-di-μ-hydroxo-tetrakis(S-arginine)dicobalt(III) tetranitrate tetrahydrate

In a direct synthesis reaction of the tris(aminocarboxylato)cobalt(III) complexes with S-arginine all four theoretically possible tris(S-arginine)cobalt(III) diastereomers were obtained as tripositive complex ions. Besides, one out of 24 theoretically possible isomers of di-μ-hydroxo-tetrakis(S-arginine)dicobalt(III) tetrapositive ion was obtained. Geometrical and absolute configurations of the tris(S-arginine)cobalt(III) isomers were determined by electronic and CD spectroscopy. The molecular structure of the (-)₅₈₉-anti(N)-Δ-cis(N),cis(O)-Λ-cis(N),cis(O)-di-μ-hydroxo-tetrakis(S-arginine)dicobalt(III) ion was solved by X-ray crystal structure analysis. The complexes obtained represent the first examples of cationic aminocarboxylato complexes of this type. For the first time the formation of the di-μ-hydroxo-tetrakis(aminocarboxylato)dicobalt(III) complex has been observed as a reaction concurrent to the formation of tris(aminocarboxylato)cobalt(III) complexes. Finally, the stereoselectivity of S-arginine in the tris(S-arginine)cobalt(III) isomers synthesis was discussed.     

Synthesis, characterization, electrochemical studies, and antibacterial activities of cobalt(III) complexes with Salpn-Tipe Schiff base ligands. Crystal structure of trans-[CoIII(L1)(Py)2]ClO4

The synthesis, characterization, spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of trans-[Co^III(L¹)(Py)₂]ClO₄ (I) and trans-[Co^III(L²)(Py)₂]ClO₄ (II) complexes, where H₂L¹ = N,N′-bis(5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-1,3-propylenediamine and H₂L² = N,N′-bis(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-1,3-propylenediamine, have been investigated. Both complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of I has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The coordination geometry around cobalt(III) ion is best described as a distorted octahedron. The electrochemical studies of these complexes revealed that the first reduction process corresponding to Co(III/II) is electrochemically irreversible accompanied by dissociation of the axial Co-N(Py) bonds. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of the Schiff bse ligands and their corrsponding complexes have been tested against human pathogenic bacterias such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli. The cobalt(III) complexes showed lower antimicrobial activity than the free Schiff base ligands.     

NEW LIPOPHILIC BISPOCKET-PORPHYRINS FOR CHEMOTHERAPY OF CANCER (PART I); PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF 5,10,15,20-TETRAKIS(3′,5′-DI-t-BUTYLPHENYL) PORPHYRIN METAL COMPLEXES1

Abstract

A series of highly lipophilic bis-pocket porphyrins, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3′, 5′-di-t-butylphenyl)porphyrin with five metals (copper(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), cobalt(II), and iron(III)), have been prepared and characterized on the basis of electronic, infrared and ¹H NMR spectra. Although electronic spectra of these porphyrins are substantially the same as their prototype tetraphenylporphyrin complexes of the respective metals, their solubility in common organic solvents such as chloroform, benzene, and hexane is dramatically enhanced.

Investigation of the kinetics of formation of 1 : 1 complex between chromium(III) with 1,3-propanediamine-N,N′-diacetate-N,N′-di-3-propionate ion in aqueous acidic media

The kinetics of formation of the 1?:?1 complex of chromium(III) with 1,3-propanediamine-N,N′-diacetate-N,N′-di-3-propionate (1,3-pddadp) were followed spectrophotometrically at λ _max?=?557?nm. The reaction was first-order in chromium(III). Increasing the 1,3-pddadp concentration from 2.2?×?10^?2 to 0.11?mol?dm^?3 accelerated the reaction rate. Increasing the hydrogen ion concentration from 1.995?×?10^?5 to 6.31?×?10^?4 mol?dm^?3 retarded the reaction rate. The reaction rate was also retarded by increasing ionic strength and dielectric constant of the reaction medium. A mechanism was suggested to account for the results obtained which involves ion-pair formation between the various reactants. Values of 22?kJ?mol^?1 and ?115?J?K^?1 mol^?1 were obtained for the energy and the entropy of activation, respectively, which indicate an associative mechanism. The logarithm of the formation constant of the 1?:?1 complex formed was 11.3.     

Crystal structure of (1,10-phenanthroline)ethylenediamine-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N′</Emphasis>-diacetatocopper(II) pentahydrate, [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] · 5H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O

The products of oxidation of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid by manganese dioxide have been used to synthesize crystals of [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] · 5H₂O (Edda is ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetate, and Phen is 1,10-phenanthroline). The X-ray diffraction analysis of the crystals shows that the N atoms of the Edda and Phen ligands lie in the equatorial plane around the Cu atom, and the O atoms of the Edda ligands are localized in more remote axial positions. The [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] complexes are grouped in pairs at a distance of 3.46 Å between the mean planes of the Phen ligands. Ten water molecules are united by hydrogen bonds into symmetric isolated clusters, and further they form a three-dimensional framework with the [Cu(Edda)(Phen)] complexes.     

Isonitrosopropiophenone as an ambidentate chelating agent in some transition metal complexes

Summary Isonitrosopropiophenonates of cobalt(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and palladium(II) have been synthesised and characterised. Isonitrosopropiophenonatonickel(II) exists as green and brown varieties, the green forming mono- as well as bispyridine adducts. The brown variety is obtained after removal of base from the adducts. I.r. data of the metal chelates suggest atrans-asymmetric structure involving N and O bonding for one form and atrans-symmetric structure involving either N or O bonding of the oximino-group for the other. The former is observed exclusively with isonitrosopropiophenonates of nickel(II) while the latter is common among the other metal chelates. The low magnetic moment of the mono-adduct is ascribed to super-exchange interaction between two metal ions through oxo-bridges in the dimer. Acis-octahedral structure has been assigned to the tris(isonitrosopropiophenonato) cobalt(III) on the basis of¹H n.m.r. data. Isonitrosopropiophenone forms mixed-ligand complexes of cobalt(III) with tetradentate Schiff bases such as SALEN,N,N-ethylenebis(salicylaldimine), and SALPN,N,N-1,3-propylenebis-(salicylaldimine), where the isonitrose group bonds through the nitrogen atom. These complexes have a N,N,N,O,O,O ligand environment. The imino-nickel(II) and -palladium(II) complexes are assigned atrans-symmetric square planar structure. Characterisation of the complexes was based upon elemental analyses, conductivity and magnetic moment, and i.r.,¹H n.m.r., and electronic spectra.
