Palladium(II) complexes with 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid

Complex formation in a K₂PdCl₄-HEDP system (HEDP is 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid) at the metal-to-ligand ratios 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 is studied by ³¹P and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The formation of equimolar complexes, in which HEDP is coordinated to palladium(II) in a bidentate mode through two oxygen atoms of the phosphonic groups, is found in these systems. The structure and charge characteristics of conformers of the complexes are simulated by the quantum-chemical methods.     

Crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new heterometallic complex of Pd(II)-Cu(II) with 1-aminoethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid

A heterometallic complex of Pd(II)-Cu(II) with 1-aminoethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic (AEDP) acid (C₄H₂₂CuN₂O₁₆P₄Pd) _n (I) is synthesized. Single crystals of compound I are obtained; its crystal structure is determined by X-ray crystallography. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbcn, a = 18.366(3) Å, b = 9.7661(17) Å, c = 20.198(4) Å, V = 3622.8(11) ų, Z = 8, d _x = 2.376 g/cm³. The compound crystallizes as a coordination polymer; the square environment of Pd(II) is formed by nitrogen atoms of amino groups and oxygen atoms of phosphonic groups, while at two non-equivalent copper atoms the octahedral environment is formed by oxygen atoms of phosphonic groups and water molecules. The crystal structure of compound I is characterized by the formation of a branched network of hydrogen bonds. Based on the analysis of the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility it is found that for the heterometallic complex of Pd(II)-Cu(II) with AEDP antiferromagnetic interactions between the paramagnetic centers are dominant.     

1,1-ethylenedithiolato complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II) with isocyanide and carbene ligands

The reactions of [Tl(2)[S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)]](n) with [MCl(2)(NCPh)(2)] and CNR (1:1:2) give complexes [M[eta(2)-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](CNR)(2)] [R = (t)Bu, M = Pd (1a), Pt (1b); R = C(6)H(3)Me(2)-2,6 (Xy), M = Pd (2a), Pt (2b)]. Compound 1b reacts with AgClO(4) (1:1) to give [[Pt(CN(t)Bu)(2)](2)Ag(2)[mu(2),eta(2)-(S,S')-[S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](2)]](ClO(4))(2) (3). The reactions of 1 or 2 with diethylamine give mixed isocyanide carbene complexes [M[eta(2)-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](CNR)[C(NEt(2))(NHR)]] [R = (t)Bu, M = Pd (4a), Pt (4b); R = Xy, M = Pd (5a), Pt (5b)] regardless of the molar ratio of the reagents. The same complexes react with an excess of ammonia to give [M[eta(2)-(S,S')-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](CN(t)Bu)[C(NH(2))(NH(t)Bu)]] [M = Pd (6a), Pt (6b)] or [M[eta(2)-(S,S')-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)][C(NH(2))(NHXy)](2)] [M = Pd (7a), Pt (7b)] probably depending on steric factors. The crystal structures of 2b, 4a, and 4b have been determined. Compounds 4a and 4b are isostructural. They all display distorted square planar metal environments and chelating planar E,Z-2,2-diacetyl-1,1-ethylenedithiolato ligands that coordinate through the sulfur atoms.     

Complex formation of 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid with gadolinium(III) and calcium(II) in the aqueous solutions

The complex formation constant have been determined for the reactions of 1-hydroxyethylidenediphosphonic acid (H₄L) with Ca(II) and Gd(III). The solubility constant has been estimated for the products differing in the ligand deprotonation state. In the cases of both cations, four complex types are common: Me(H₂L)₂, MeH₃L₂, Me₂L, and Me₂(HL)₂. The Gd(H₂L)₂ and GdH₃L₂ complexes are much more stable than the respective calcium complexes. It has been demonstrated that, on the contrary to the commonly accepted practice, gadolinium ion cannot model the behavior of calcium ions.     

1-Alkoxy(aryloxy)alkylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acids

Conclusions Alkyl carboxylates react with mixtures of H₃PO₃ and PCl₃ and with P₄O₆ in the presence of BF₃ to give 1-alkoxyalkylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acids. Formates are much more reactive than other esters in this reaction.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 624–630, February, 1987.     

Complexes of palladium (II) with L-proline. Mixed L-prolinato nucleoside complexes of Palladium (II)

The reaction of Palladium (II) chloride and L-proline (ProH) in aqueous solution gave the dimeric complex, Pd(Pro)Cl₂, which was characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight, conductivity measurements and IR and NMR spectra. The complex, reacted further with the purine nucleosides inosine or guanosine (Nucl) and the complexes Pd(Pro)(Nucl-H⁺) were isolated from aqueous solution. The insolubility of these complexes suggested a rather polymeric structure in which the nucleoside bridges two adjacent palladium atoms through its N(7) and the exocyclic O(6) atoms. Reaction in dmso gave the complex Pd(Pro)(Nucl)Cl in which the nucleoside act as monodentate ligands with their N(7) atom as ligation site. In aqueous solutions these complexes are quantitatively transformed to the polymeric analogues with the liberation of HCl. The nucleoside adenosine (Ado) reacted in a different way giving only the dimeric complex [Cl(Pro)PdAdoPd(Pro)Cl] in which adenosine bridges two palladium atoms through its N(1) and N(7) atoms. Finally with the pyrimidine nucleoside cytidine (Cyd) the monomer Pd(Pro)(Cyd)Cl was isolated.     

Mixed ligand complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II) with methionine and 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidines

Summary Mixed ligand complexes ofcis-[M(MetH)Cl₂] (M=Pd²⁺ and Pt²⁺; MetH=methionine) with 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidines were prepared and characterised. Thecis-[Pd(MetH)Cl₂] complex reacted with cytosine (2-hydroxy-4-aminopyrimidine), isocytosine (2-amino-4-hydroxypyrimidine) and thiocytosine (2-thio-4-amino-pyrimidine) to form ternary complexes.cis-[Pt(MetH)Cl₂] however reacted with cytosine, uracil (2,4-pyrimidine dione or 2,4-dihydroxypyrimidine) to yield the corresponding mixed ligand complexes. The primary ligand, methionine, binds to the metal ion through sulphur and amino nitrogenvia a six membered chelate ring. The secondary ligands (substituted pyrimidines) bind to the Pd²⁺ or Pt²⁺ metal ion through the ring nitrogen (N₃), as monodentate ligand. Thiocytosine however acts as a bidentate ligand, coordinating to the metal ion through-SH and ring nitrogen (N₃). All complexes are 11 electrolytes, except the thiocytosine complex, which is a 12 electrolyte.     

Coordination complexes of l-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid with platinum(II) and palladium(II)

Summary The complexes K[Pt(l-aze)Cl₂, [Pt(l-aze)₂] and [Pd(l-aze)₂] (l-aze = l-azetidine-2-carboxylate) were prepared. X-ray structures show that [Pt(l-aze)₂] and [Pd(l-aze)₂] are isomorphous, having a planar tetragonal geometry with a trans configuration around the Pt and Pd atoms. Slight puckerings of the MN(1)N(11)O(11) chelate ring (M = Pt or Pd) and the azetidine ring were observed. The circular dichroism (c.d.) spectra of the complexes in aqueous solution agree with the structures found in the solid state as far as the hexadecant rule is concerned, giving, for the trans configuration of [M(l-ia)₂] (where ia = imino acid), the profile of the c.d. signs for the three predominant d-d transitions as: +,-,-. I.r., conductivity and n.m.r. measurements are also reported and are in accord with the proposed structures.     

Copper(II) complexation by (pyridinyl)aminomethane-1,1-diphosphonic acid derivatives; spectroscopic and potentiometric studies

The complex formation between copper(II) and (pyridinyl)aminomethane-1,1-diphosphonic acid derivatives was studied by means of pH-potentiometry, spectroscopic methods (UV-Vis, EPR) and mass spectrometry (MS). The bisphosphonate ligands form polynuclear Cu₃H_xL₃ (x = 4 ,3, 2, 1, 0, −1) species besides the mononuclear 1:1 and 1:2 metal-to-ligand molar ratio complexes. Two phosphonate groups are basic binding sites for the metal ion. It is suggested that in the polynuclear complexes the ligands adopt chelating and bridging modes via the four oxygen atoms of the two phosphonate groups.     

1-Hydroxy-ethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid as a titrimetric agent

1-Hydroxy-ethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDPHA) has been proposed as a highly selective titrimetric reagent for thorium. In the presence of 1,2-diaminocyelohexanetetra-acetic acid (DCTA) a soluble binuclear ternary complex, Th(2)(DCTA)(2)(HEDPHA), is formed. The determination of thorium is carried out in a slightly acidic medium, buffered with urotropine, with 0.025M HEDPHA, and Xylenol Orange as indicator. DCTA masks all bivalent metals, rare earths, scandium, yttrium, bismuth, iron, gallium and indium. Only zirconium, titanium, aluminium and large amounts of thallium(III) interfere.     

Structural investigations of palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes of salicylhydroxamic acid

Complexes of salicylhydroxamic acid (shaH) with palladium(II) and platinum(II) were investigated. The synthesis of [Pt(sha)(2)] was attempted via a number of methods, and ultimately (1)H NMR investigations revealed that salicylhydroxamate would not coordinate to chloro complexes of platinum(II). However, [Pt(sha-H)(PPh(3))(2)] was successfully synthesized and the crystal structure determined (orthorhombic, space group Pca2(1) a = 17.9325(19) A, b = 11.3102(12) A, c = 18.2829(19) A, Z = 4, R = 0.0224). The sha binds via an [O,O] binding mode, in its hydroximate form. In contrast the palladium complex [Pd(sha)(2)] was readily synthesized and crystallized as [Pd(sha)(2)](DMF)(4) in the triclinic space group P(-)1,a = 7.066(1) A, b = 9.842(2) A, c = 12.385(2) A, alpha = 99.213(3)(o), beta = 90.669(3), gamma = 109.767(3)(o), Z = 1, R = 0.037. The unexpected [N,O'] binding mode of the salicylhydroxamate ligand in [Pd(sha)(2)] prompted investigation of the stability of a number of binding modes of salicylhydroxamic acid in [M(sha)(2)] (M = Pd, Pt) by density functional theory, using the B3LYP hybrid functional at the 6-311G* level of theory. Geometry optimizations were carried out for various binding modes of the ligands and their relative energies established. It was found that the [N,O'] mode gave the more stable complex, in accord with experimental observations. Stabilization of hydroxamate binding to platinum is evidently afforded by soft ligands lying trans to them.     

Spectrotitration of ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonic acid (EHDP(tm)) with thorium diaminocyclohexanetetra-acetate

An automatic spectrotitration procedure for EHDP has been developed. It is applicable to samples containing 50mug or more of EHDP, with a relative standard deviation of 3% if no interfering materials are present. The sensitivity can be extended down to about 5mug, but titration blanks become significant and the standard deviation increases markedly. Thorium diaminocyclohexanetetra-acetate (Th-DCTA) is used as the titrant, to give a ternary species (Th-DCTA)(2)-EHDP. The end-point in the spectrotitration is due to deprotonation of Xylenol Orange indicator when it is incorporated into a weaker ternary species after all the EHDP has reacted. Salts such as NaCl, NaClO(4), Na(2)SO(4) and NaNO(3) interfere if present at concentrations of 0.1-0.5M. The method is much more sensitive to orthophosphate, but this interference can be averted by isolating the EHDP before titration by selectively adsorbing the phosphonate on calcium hydroxyapatite.     

Platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes with substituted pyrimidines

Summary Platinum(II) and Palladium(II) complexes with 2-mercaptopyrimidine, 2-thiocytosine (4-aminopyrimidine 2-thione), and isocytosine (2-amino-4-hydroxy pyrimidine) were prepared and characterised by elemental analysis, conductivity data, i.r.,¹H n.m.r. and¹³C n.M.r. spectral studies. 2-Mercaptopyrimidine and 2-thiocytosine are coordinated to the metal ion through N(3) and C₂S, thus forming a four-membered chelate ring. Isocytosine acts as a monodentate ligand and coordinates to the metal ion through N(1). All the complexes are non-electrolytes.     

N-aminorhodamne complexes of palladium(II), palladium(IV) and platinum(II)

Summary TheN-aminorhodanine (L) complexes: PdLX, (X = Br or I), ML_1.5Cl₂ (M = Pd or Pt), PtL₂X₂ (X = Br, I or ClO₄), PdL₃(ClO₄)₂, PdL_1.5Cl₄ and PdL₃(ClO₄)₄ have been prepared and investigated. The ligand is bonded to the metal ion through the aminic nitrogen atom as monodentate or through this atom and the thiocarbonylic sulphur atom when it acts as chelating or bridging ligand. The carbonylic oxygen atom is never coordinated.     

Synthesis of palladium(II) and nickel(II) complexes with tetrabenzoporphine

Palladium and nickel complexes with tetrabenzoporphine were synthesized by reacting tetrabenzoporphine and cadmium tetrabensoporphine with palladium and nickel chlorides in boiling dimethylformamide and identified.     

Ruthenium(II) and palladium(II) complexes with 2,6-(bispyrazol-1-yl)pyridines

Ruthenium(II) and palladium(II) complexes [Ru(DMSO)(L)Cl₂] and [Pd(L)Cl]Cl, where L = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine (bpp) or 2,6-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)pyridine (bdmpp) have been synthesized. All complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, UV-Vis, and cyclic voltammetry measurements.     

New palladium(II) complexes with pyrazole ligands

The pyrazole ligand 3,5-dimethyl-4-iodopyrazole (HdmIPz) has been used to obtain a series of palladium(II) complexes (1–4) of the type [PdX₂(HdmIPz)₂] {X = Cl⁻ (1); Br⁻ (2); I⁻ (3); SCN⁻ (4)}. All compounds have been isolated, purified, and characterized by means of elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, ¹H and ¹³C{¹H}-NMR experiments, differential thermal analysis (DTA), and thermogravimetry (TG). The TG/DTA curves showed that the compounds released ligands in the temperature range 137–605 °C, yielding metallic palladium as final residue. The complexes and the ligand together with cisplatin have been tested in vitro by MTT assay for their cytotoxicity against two murine cancer cell lines: mammary adenocarcinoma (LM3) and lung adenocarcinoma (LP07).
