Ag(I) and Zn(II) isonicotinate complexes: design,characterization, antimicrobial effect,and CT-DNA binding studies

Trinuclear Ag(I) (1) and dinuclear and mononuclear Zn(II) isonicotinate (2 and 3) complexes were prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography, elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and thermal analysis. Single-crystal analysis of the Ag(I) complex reveals two different monodentate carboxylate coordination modes, protonated and deprotonated, respectively. IR spectra showed correlations between isonicotinate coordination modes and Δ(ν_as???ν_s)_IR values. In addition, the hydrogen bonds significantly influence a position of carboxylate absorption bands. Moreover, IC₅₀ and MIC data for bacteria, yeasts, and filamentous fungi were determined and the binding of Ag(I) and Zn(II) complexes to calf thymus DNA was investigated using electronic absorption, fluorescence, and CD measurements. Biological tests showed that the Ag(I) complex is more active than commercially used Ag(I) sulfadiazine against Escherichia coli. The fluorescence spectral results indicate that the complexes can bind to DNA through an intercalative mode. The Stern–Volmer quenching constants for investigated complexes obtained from the linear quenching plot are in the range of 1.67 × 10⁴–3.42 × 10⁴ M^?1.     

Cadmium(II) complexes with phosphine tellurides: synthesis and multinuclear (31P, 125Te,and 113Cd) NMR characterization in solution

New cadmium(II) complexes with phosphine telluride ligands of the type CdX₂(R₃PTe)_n [X?=?ClO₄^?, n?=?4: R?=?n-Bu (1), Me₂?N (2), C₅H₁₀?N (3), C₄H₈?N (4) or OC₄H₈?N (5); X?=?Cl^–, n?=?2: R?=?n-Bu (6), Me₂?N (7), C₅H₁₀?N (8), C₄H₈?N (9) or OC₄H₈?N (10)] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR and multinuclear (³¹P, ¹²⁵Te, and ¹¹³Cd) NMR spectroscopy. In particular, the solution structures of these complexes were confirmed by ¹¹³Cd NMR at low temperature, which displays a quintuplet for each of the perchlorate complexes and a triplet for each of the chloride complexes due to coupling with four and two equivalent phosphorus atoms, respectively, indicating a four-coordinate tetrahedral geometry for the metal center. These multiplet features were further accompanied by one bond Te–Cd couplings, clearly showing that the ligand is coordinated to the metal through tellurium. The results are discussed and compared with those obtained for closely related phosphine chalcogenide analogs.     

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.     

Tricarbonylchromium complexes with phenalene. Synthesis, structure, and thermal rearrangements

The reaction of phenalene with Cr(CO)₃Py₃/BF₃·OEt₂ afforded a mixture of two isomeric complexes, tricarbonyl(6a,7-9,9a,9b-·⁶-phenalene)chromium (1) and tricarbonyl(3a,6a,9b,4-6-·⁶-phenalene)chromium (2). Deprotonation of the mixture of compounds1 and2 followed by treatment with MeI, BuⁿI, or D₂O gave complexesexo-1-R-1 (3–5: R=Me (3), Buⁿ (4), or D (5)). The molecular geometry of complex3 was established by X-ray structural analysis. Heating of complex5 in toluene or C₆F₆ at 90–110 °C resulted in redistribution of deuterium among positionsexo-1,endo-1, and 3 in the resulting complexes of types1 and2 via sigmatropic shifts of the H _exo and H _endo atoms in the nonaromatic ring as well asvia inter-ring migrations of the tricarbonylchromium group. In the case of3, the methyl label is distributed among positionsexo-1 and3 to form isomeric complexes with similar structures (exo-1-Me-2 (6), 3-Me-2 (7), and 3-Me-1 (8), respectively)via processes analogous to those observed in the case of isomerization of compound5 (except for migration of the H _exo atom). The mechanisms of these rearrangements are discussed. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 1863–1880, October, 1997.     

Four Zn(II)/Cd(II) coordination polymers derived from isomeric benzenedicarboxylates and 1,6-bis(triazol)hexane ligand: synthesis,crystal structure,and luminescent properties

Four coordination polymers, [Zn(o-bdc)(bth)_0.5(H₂O)] _n (1), [Cd(o-bdc)(bth)_0.5(H₂O)] _n (2), [Zn(m-bdc)(bth)] _n (3), and [Cd(p-bdc)(bth)?·?(H₂O)₂] _n (4) (where o-bdc?=?1,2-benzenedicarboxylate, m-bdc?=?1,3-benzenedicarboxylate, p-bdc?=?1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, and bth?=?1,6-bis(triazol)hexane), have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Both 1 and 2 are isostructural, featuring two binodal architectures: (6³)(6⁵·8) topology in terms of o-bdc and Zn^II/Cd^II as three- and four-connected nodes. Complex 3 shows a 2-D (4,4) network with the Zn?···?Zn?···?Zn angle of 57.84°, whereas 4 exhibits planar 2-D (4,4) network. These 2-D networks of 3 and 4 are extended by supramolecular interactions, such as CH?···?π/π–π stacking and hydrogen-bonding into 3-D architecture. A structural comparison of these complexes demonstrates that the dicarboxylate building blocks with different dispositions of the carboxyl site play a key role in governing the coordination motifs as well as 3-D supramolecular lattices. Solid-state properties such as photoluminescence and thermal stabilities of 1–4 have also been studied.     

Mononuclear,homo- and hetero-binuclear complexes of 1-(5-(1-(2-aminophenylimino)ethyl)-2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanone: synthesis,magnetic, spectral,antimicrobial, antioxidant,and antitumor studies

A new Schiff base, H₂L, was prepared by condensation of 4,6-diacetylresorcinol with o-phenylenediamine in molar ratio 1?:?1. The ligand reacted with copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II), iron(III), zinc(II), oxovanadium(IV), and dioxouranium(VI) ions in the absence and presence of LiOH to yield mononuclear and homobinuclear complexes. The mononuclear dioxouranium(VI) complex [(HL)-(UO₂)(OAc)(H₂O)]·5H₂O was used to synthesize heterobinuclear complexes. The ligand and its metal complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H-, and ¹³C-NMR, electronic, ESR and mass spectra, conductivity, and magnetic susceptibility measurements as well as thermal analysis. In the absence of LiOH, mononuclear complexes (1, 4, and 9) were obtained; in the presence of LiOH, binuclear complexes (3, 5, 7, and 10) as well as mononuclear complexes (2, 6, and 8) were obtained. In the mononuclear complexes, the coordinating sites are the phenolic oxygen, azomethine nitrogen, and amino nitrogen. In addition to these coordinating sites, the free carbonyl and phenolic OH are involved in coordination in binuclear complexes. The metal complexes exhibited octahedral, tetrahedral, and square planar geometries while the uranium is seven-coordinate. The antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of the ligand and its complexes were investigated. The ligand and the metal complexes showed antitumor activity against Ehrlich Acites Carcinoma.

The new zinc ternary complexes [Zn(cyclen)NO₃]ClO4 (I), [Zn₂(cyclen)₂(m-nic)](ClO₄)₃ (II), [Zn₂(cyclen)₂(m-pic)](ClO₄)₃ (III) (cyclen=1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane; nic=nicotinic acid; pic=picolinic acid) were synthesized and their spectral and thermal properties were investigated. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and TG/DTG, DTA methods. Moreover, the way of coordination of pyridinecarboxylate anions was proposed on the basis of the spectral data and consequently proved with results of X-ray structure analysis. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

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.     

A new oxamato-bridged heterotrinuclear NiIICuIINiII complex: synthesis,structure and properties

A new oxamato-bridged Ni^IICu^IINi^II species, [Ni(iprtacn)]₂[Cu(pba)(H₂O)_0.5](BPh₄)₂ (1), (iprtacn?=?1,4,7-triisopropyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane; pba?=?1,3-propylenebis(oxamato)) has been synthesized and structurally as well as magnetically characterized.

Fitting the magnetic data of 1 led to g _Cu?=?2.16, g _Ni?=?2.18, J?=??112.5?cm^?1, D?=?±7.78?cm^?1. The irregular spin state structure and interaction of complex 1with DNA are described here.     

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.     

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.

Syntheses,spectroscopy, and X-ray structures of 3-{(R)-(Ar)-ethylimino}-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one (Ar = Ph,MeOC6H4, BrC6H4, 1-naphthyl) and [Rh(η4-cod){3-((R)-(Ar)-ethylimino)-3H-indol-2-olato}]

Condensation of 1H-indole-2,3-dione (isatin) with (R)-(Ar)-ethylamines gives enantiopure Schiff bases, 3-{(R)-(Ar)-ethylimino}-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one (HL) {Ar?=?Ph (HL1), 2-MeOC₆H₄ (HL2), 4-MeOC₆H₄ (HL3), 4-BrC₆H₄ (HL4), and 1-naphthyl (HL5)}. The Schiff bases readily coordinate to [Rh(μ-O₂CMe)(η⁴-cod)]₂ (cod?=?1,5-cyclooctadiene) to give mononuclear [Rh(η⁴-cod){3-((R)-(Ar)-ethylimino)-3H-indol-2-olato}] {Ar?=?Ph (1), 4-MeOC₆H₄ (2), and 4-BrC₆H₄ (3)}, respectively. The Schiff bases and complexes have been fully characterized by IR, UV-Vis, ¹H-NMR, mass, and circular dichroism (CD) spectrometry. Polarimetry and CD measurements show the enantiopurity of the Schiff bases as well as the complexes. ¹H NMR measurements reveal slow conversion of the lactam to the enol form of the Schiff bases in solution. In the solid state the lactam form dominates as shown by crystal structures of HL1 and HL4. While gross structural features of both are similar, the molecules differ significantly in the relative orientations of the aryl and lactam rings. The difference is mostly rotation about the N2–C9 bond with different C8–N2–C9–C11 torsion angle of +89.77(12)° for HL1 and C2–N2–C9–C11 of +106.8(3)° for HL4.     

Synthesis and chemistry of tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine and bis(2-pyridyl)phenylphosphine complexes of mercury(II) X (X = Br,Cl) and X-ray crystal structural determination of [HgBr2(PPh(2-py)2)2]

Mercury(II) halide complexes [HgX₂(P(2-py)₃)₂] (X?=?Br (1), Cl (2)) and [HgX₂(PPh(2-py)₂)₂] (X?=?Br (3), Cl (4)) containing P(2-py)₃ and PPh(2-py)₂ ligands (P(2-py)₃ is tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine and PPh(2-py)₂ is bis(2-pyridyl)phenylphosphine) were synthesized in nearly quantitative yield by reaction of corresponding mercury(II) halide and appropriate ligands. The synthesized complexes are fully characterized by elemental analysis, melting point determination, IR, ¹H, and ³¹P-NMR spectroscopies. Furthermore, the crystal structure of [HgBr₂(PPh(2-py)₂)₂] determined by X-ray diffraction is also reported.     

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.     

Tris(dimethylamino)phosphine Selenide Complexes of Cadmium(II): Synthesis and Multinuclear (31P, 77Se,and 113Cd) NMR Characterization in Solution

The complexes CdL₄(ClO₄)₂ (1), CdL₂(NO₃)₂ (2), and CdL₂Cl₂ (3) (L = (Me₂N)₃P(Se)) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity measurements, IR, and multinuclear (³¹P, ⁷⁷Se, and ¹¹³Cd) NMR spectroscopy. ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se NMR data were informative of changes associated with complex formation. The structure of the prepared complexes was further confirmed in solution by their ¹¹³Cd NMR spectra, which show a quintuplet for the perchlorate complex and a triplet for each of the nitrate and chloride complexes due, respectively, to coupling with four and two equivalent phosphorus atoms, consistent with a four coordinate tetrahedral geometry for the cadmium center. The NMR data are discussed and compared with those reported for related complexes.     

Synthesis,characterization, and solid state electrical conductivity of coordination polymers with copper and zinc

Heterobimetallic complexes [Cu _x Zn_{1? x} (dadb)?·?yH₂O] _n {where dadb?=?2,5-diamino-3,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone (1); x?=?1 (2), 0.5 (4), 0.25 (5), 0.125 (6), 0.0625 (7), and 0 (3); y?=?2; n?=?degree of polymerization} were synthesized and characterized. All metal complexes are stable at room temperature but weakly absorb moisture on exposure to air. Monometallic 2 exhibits subnormal magnetic moment whereas 3 exhibits diamagnetism. Heterobimetallic complexes exhibit normal magnetic moments. Heterobimetallic complexes are characterized from powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectral studies. Delocalization of unpaired electron from metal to ligand has been inferred from ESR and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. Greater delocalization of unpaired electron of Cu(II) on ligand of 4 as compared to that of 2 is reflected from NBO analysis. Heterobimetallic complexes show higher conductivity than monometallic complexes; all the complexes exhibit semiconductor behavior.     

Chemie polyfunktioneller Moleküle, 94 Chrom- und Wolfram-pentacarbonylderivate des 4-Methyl-1,2,6-triphosphatricyclo[2.2.1.02,6]heptans (P3-Nortricyclans)

Crystal structure and spectroscopic behavior of three new tris-oxalatoferrate(III) salts

A new general synthetic procedure for preparation of Na₃[Fe(C₂O₄)₃]·5H₂O (1), Rb₃[Fe(C₂O₄)₃]·3H₂O (2), and Cs₃[Fe(C₂O₄)₃]·2H₂O (3) was developed. The crystal structures of these salts have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Salt 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 8, salt 2 in P2₁/c with Z = 4, and salt 3 in P2₁/n with Z = 4. The three new salts and K₃[Fe(C₂O₄)₃]·3H₂O, prepared for comparative purposes, were further characterized by infrared and ⁵⁷Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopy. These spectra are discussed in comparison with those of related oxalato complexes.     

Syntheses,structures, and properties of CdII and CoII complexes with 5-(pyridin-4-yl)isophthalate

A N-donor containing carboxylic ligand, 5-(pyridin-4-yl)isophthalic acid (H₂L), was applied to construct two new coordination polymers [Cd(L)(DMF)] _n (1, DMF?=?N,N-dimethylformamide) and {[Co(L)(H₂O)₂]?·?0.5CH₃OH?·?1.5H₂O} _n (2) under different conditions. The complexes were characterized by IR, elemental, and thermogravimetric analyses, powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction. In 1 each L^2? links four Cd^II to form a 3-D framework, while in 2 each L^2? connects three metals to form a 2-D layer structure, which is further connected together by hydrogen bonds to form a 3-D architecture. The thermal stability of the complexes and the photoluminescence of 1 were investigated.
