Different Coordination Modes of Saccharin in the Complexes of Lead(II) with 2‐Pyridylmethanol and Pyridine‐2, 6‐dimethanol — Synthesis,Spectral and Structural Characterization

New lead(II)‐saccharin complexes, [Pb(sac)₂(pym)] (1) and [Pb(sac)₂(pydm)] (2) (sac = saccharinate anion; pym = 2‐pyridylmethanol; pydm = pyridine‐2, 6‐dimethanol) were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy and single crystal X‐ray diffractometry. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2₁/c space group with Z = 4, while the crystals of complex 2 are extremely X‐ray sensitive and decompose by the X‐ray beam within one day. Pym and pydm act as bi‐ and tridentate ligands, respectively. Most important feature of the complexes is non‐equivalent coordination of the sac ligands to the lead(II) atom. In the complex 1 , the sac ligands coordinate to the lead(II) ion in two distinct manners. One sac ligand behaves as a bridge between the lead(II) atoms through its N and carbonyl O atoms, whereas the other sac ligand acts as a bidentate chelating ligand through its N and carbonyl O atoms which is bicoordinating and also bridges the metal atoms to achieve the seven‐coordination. The structure is built up of three‐dimensional chains formed by the bridging of the PbN₃O₂ units and also held intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The IR spectra of the complexes were discussed in detail.     

An Aqua‐Bridged Helical‐Chain Copper(II)‐Saccharinato Polymer Linked into a Two‐Dimensional Supramolecular Framework

A new assembly [Cu₂(sac)₂(μ‐dmea)₂(μ‐H₂O)]_n (sac = saccharinate and Hdmea = 2‐dimethylaminoethanol) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c and consists of dinuclear modules of [Cu₂(sac)₂(dmea)₂]. The sac ligand is N‐coordinated, while the dmea ligand is in the deprotanated form by losing the ethanol hydrogen atom and acts as a bidentate donor through the alkoxo group and N atom. The alkoxo group also serves as a bridge between two copper(II) ions, leading to an intra‐dimer Cu···Cu separation of 3.0229(7) Å. The dimeric units are bridged by aqua ligands to generate a one‐dimensional water‐bridged helical chain, in which the copper(II) ions exhibit a distorted square‐pyramidal CuN₂O₃ coordination. The Cu–Cu distance in the chain separated by the bridging aqua ligands is 5.297Å. The polymeric chains are further linked by π(sac)···π(sac) and C–H···π(sac) interactions into a two‐dimensional supramolecular network.     

A Three—Dimensional Lead(II) Polymer with Bridging Saccharinate and Unusually Coordinated Acetate Ligands — Synthesis,IR Spectra,and Crystal Structure of [Pb(H2O)(μ‐OAc)(μ‐sac)]n

The complex [Pb(H₂O)(μ‐OAc)(μ‐sac)]n with acetate (OAc) and saccharinate (sac) ligands was characterized by IR, elemental analysis and X‐ray crystallography. The mixed‐anion lead(II) complex crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system with the space group of P1¯. The single crystal X‐ray analysis shows that the complex is a coordination polymer in which the lead(II) ions have a highly distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination geometry. Lead(II) ions are bridged by carboxylate groups in a zigzag arrangement forming one‐dimensional infinite chains, which are also linked by sac bridges and aromatic π‐π contacts between the adjacent phenyl rings of sac ligands, resulting in a three‐dimensional network. One water molecule coordinates the lead(II) ion and also forms weak hydrogen bonds with the sulfonyl oxygen atoms of the neighboring sac ligands. The sac ligand acts as a bridging ligand through the nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen atoms, while the carboxylate moiety of the acetate ligand shows an unusual (bidentate, and bridging) coordination behaviour, which was observed for the first time in the structure.     

Trans‐bis(saccharinato)cadmium(II) Complexes with 2‐Aminomethylpyridine and 2‐Aminoethylpyridine — Synthesis,Crystal Structures,Spectral and Thermal Characterization of trans‐[Cd(sac)2(ampy)2] and trans‐[Cd(sac)2(aepy)2]

Two trans‐bis(saccharinato) (sac) complexes of cadmium(II ) with 2‐aminomethylpyridine (ampy) and 2‐aminoethylpyridine (aepy) were synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analysis, FT‐IR spectroscopy and thermal analysis. In addition, their solid‐state structures were determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction studies. The [Cd(sac)₂(ampy)₂] ( 1 ) and [Cd(sac)₂(aepy)] ( 2 ) complexes consist of neutral monomeric units and crystallize in the orthorhombic (Pbca) and monoclinic (P2₁/c) crystal systems, respectively. The cadmium(II ) ions in 1 and 2 sit on inversion centres andexhibit distorted octahedral coordination by two sac anions and two aminopyridine ligands. The sac ligands in both complexes are N‐coordinated and located in trans positions, while the ampy and aepy ligands act as a bidentate ligand forming two symmetrically chelate rings around cadmium(II ). IR spectra and thermal decompositions of the complexes are also discussed.     

A One‐Dimensional Pyrazine Bridged Copper(II)‐Saccharinato Coordination Polymer

A one‐dimensional copper(II) complex {[Cu(sac)₂(μ‐pyz)(H₂O)]·H₂O}_n ( 1 ) (pyz = pyrazine, and sac = saccharinate) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal and single crystal X‐ray analyses. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group . The [Cu(sac)₂(H₂O)] units are bridged by pyz leading to a one‐dimensional alternating chain in which the copper(II) ions exhibit a distorted square–pyramidal coordination of CuN₄O. The intradimer Cu···Cu distance is 6.881Å, while interdimer Cu···Cu distance is 7.066Å. The supramolecular interactions are mainly controlled by the sac anion and water molecules. The individual chains are linked by strong OW–H···O(sac) hydrogen bonds into a two‐dimensional layers, which are further arranged in a three‐dimensional supramolecular network by aromatic π(sac)···π(sac) stacking interactions and CH···π(pyz) interactions. Thermal analysis of complex 1 shows that the decompositions of the aqua, pyz and sac ligands are observed as distinct steps on the DTA and TG curves.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Polymeric Lead(II) Compound: [Pb2(phen)2(N3)3(ClO4)]n

A 2D lead(II) coordination polymer [Pb₂(phen)₂(N₃)₃(ClO₄)]_n,( 1 ) containing 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) and two different anions, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography. The single‐crystal X‐ray data show two different kinds of Pb²⁺ ions with coordination numbers of eight, Pb1 = PbN₆O₂ and Pb2 = PbN₈, with hemidirected and holodirected structures, respectively. The supramolecular features in 1 is negiotated through the weak but directional C‐H···O and C‐H···N interactions and aromatic π–π stacking interactions.     

Synthesis,structure and cytotoxic activity of binuclear phenyltin(IV) complexes with N,N′‐bis(2‐hydroxybenzyl)‐1,2‐ethanebis(dithiocarbamate) ligand

Two new dinuclear phenyltin(IV) complexes derived from N,N′‐bis(2‐hydroxybenzyl)‐1,2‐ethanebis(dithiocarbamate) ligand, [2‐HOC₆H₄CH₂N(CS₂SnPh₃)CH₂]₂ ( 1 ) and [2‐HOC₆H₄CH₂N(CS₂SnClPh₂)CH₂]₂ ( 2 ) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn) spectra. The crystal structures of complexes 1 and 2 were determined by X‐ray single crystal diffraction and show that the dithiocarbamate ligand is coordinated to the tin atom in the anisobidentate manner and the tin atom is five‐coordinated. The coordination geometry of tin atom is best described as an intermediate between trigonal bipyramidal and square pyramidal with τ‐values of 0.63 and 0.53, respectively. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds (O H···S and O H···Cl) in 1 and 2 connect neighboring molecules into a one‐dimensional supramolecular chain with the centrosymmetric cyclic motifs. Complex 1 has potent in vitro cytotoxic activity against two human tumor cell lines, CoLo205 and Bcap37, while complex 2 displays weak cytotoxic activity.

Mixed‐ligand Complexes with 2,6‐Pyridinedicarboxylato(2‐) and 4,7‐Diphenyl‐1,10‐Phenanthroline Ligands, [MII(pdc)(DPphen)(H2O)]·H2O (M = Co or Cu). Synthesis,Crystal Structures and Properties

Iso‐type [M^II(pdc)(DPphen)(H₂O]·H₂O compounds (M = Co or Cu, pdc = 2,6‐pyridinedicarboxylato(2‐) ligand and DPphen = 4,7‐diphenyl‐1,10‐Phenanthroline) were synthesized and studied by X‐ray diffraction, thermal and spectral methods. The N,N′‐equatorial bidentate DPphen‐copper(II) chelation imposes a mer‐N(equatorial)+O₂(apical) conformation to pdc in the coordination polyhedron (type 4+1+1). In the Co(II) derivative, the coordination is of type 1+2+2+1 because of a lesser Jahn‐Teller distortion. In the crystals, π,π‐interligand interactions between phen ligands connect the complex molecules in multi‐stacked chains. Aqua···O(carboxyl) H‐bonding interactions reinforce the stacked chains and build double chains in 1D supramolecular structures parallel to the a axis. Non coordinated water connect these structures by H‐bonds.     

Synthesis,IR Spectra,Thermal Analysis and Crystal Structures of Bis(saccharinato)mercury(II) Complexes with 2–Aminomethylpyridine and 2–Aminoethylpyridine

Two bis(saccharinato) (sac) complexes of mercury(II) with 2–aminomethylpyridine (ampy) and 2–aminoethylpyridine (aepy) were synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analysis, FT–IR spectroscopy and thermal analysis and single crystal X–ray diffraction. trans–[Hg(sac)₂(ampy)₂] ( 1 ) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c [a = 10.8274(4), b = 16.4903(6), c = 7.7889(3) Å; β = 99.500(1)°] and [Hg(sac)₂(aepy)] ( 2 ) also crystallizes monoclinic in space group P2₁/n [a = 9.0423(4), b = 14.0594(6), c = 18.0146(8) Å; ß = 98.806(1)°]. Both 1 and 2 consist of neutral monomeric units. The mercury(II) ion in 1 lies on an inversion centre and exhibit distorted octahedral coordination by two sac anions and two ampy ligands, whereas the mercury(II) ion in 2 is tetrahedrally coordinated by an aepy and two sac ligands. The sac ligands in both complexes are N–coordinated, while the ampy and aepy ligands act as a bidentate ligand forming two symmetrically chelate rings around the mercury(II) ion.     

Synthesis,X‐ray powder structure analysis and biological properties of a mononuclear Cu(II) complex of N‐2‐hydroxyhippuric acid

A mononuclear copper (II) complex of N‐2‐hydroxyhippuric acid (2HHA), [Cu(HA)(H₂O)₂], has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and X‐ray powder diffraction studies. Crystal structure of [Cu(HA)(H₂O)₂] reveals a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry around the metal center. The crystal packing in the complex exhibits a three‐dimensional framework formed by intermolecular O? ; H···O and C? H···O hydrogen bonds. Toxicity and antitumor properties of the complex have been studied in vivo. The complex, capable of depleting glutathione (GSH) at nontoxic doses, may be utilized to sensitize drug‐resistant cells where resistance is due to an elevated level of GSH.

DNA/BSA‐binding property and in vitro anticancer activity of a new dicopper(II) complex with N‐(2‐hydroxy‐5‐nitrophenyl)‐N′‐[3‐(diethylamino)propyl]oxamide as bridging ligand: Synthesis and crystal structure

A new oxamido‐bridged dicopper(II) complex formulated as [Cu₂(ndpox)(bpy)(CH₃OH)₂]‐ (ClO₄), where H₃ndpox is N‐(2‐hydroxy‐5‐nitrophenyl)‐N′‐[3‐(diethylamino)propyl]oxamide; and bpy represents 2,2′‐bipyridine, was synthesized and structurally characterized using X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction and other methods. In the molecule, the endo‐ and the exo‐copper(II) ions bridged by the cis ‐ndpox³⁻ ligand are in {N₃O₂} and {N₂O₃} square‐ pyramidal environments, respectively. There is a three‐dimensional hydrogen bonding network dominated by O‐H···O and C‐H···O interactions in the crystal. The reactivity toward DNA/protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) revealed that the complex could interact with herring sperm DNA (HS‐DNA) through the intercalation mode, and effectively quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA via a static process. Cytotoxicity studies suggest that the complex displays selective cancer cell antiproliferative activity. The present investigation confirmed that the combined effects of both electron‐withdrawing and hydrophobic groups on the bridging ligand in the dicopper(II) complex systems can increase DNA/BSA‐binding ability and in vitro anticancer activity.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,Spectroscopic, Electrochemical and Antimicrobial Properties of Cu(II) Complex with the Mixed Ligands of 2,9‐Dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline and 4‐Hydroxypyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylic Acid

A mononuclear Cu(II) complex with mixed ligands, formulated as [Cu(hypydc)(dmp)]·H₂O (hypydc=4‐hydroxypyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylate, dmp=2,9‐dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline), was synthesized and well characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, as well as spectroscopic (IR, UV‐Vis), and electrochemical methods. The Cu(II) atom exhibits a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry. Intermolecular O? H···O and C? H···O hydrogen bonds, π‐π stacking interactions and C? H···π interactions seem to be effective in the stabilization of the crystal structure. The complex was also evaluated for its antimicrobial activity using in vitro microdilution methods. Six standard bacteria and a strain of Candida albicans were used for the antimicrobial activities. There was a very strong activity against Candida albicans and significant activities against Enterococcus fecalis, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus, indicating important biological activities of the complex.     

Structurally characterized dinuclear zinc(II) bis(salamo)‐type tetraoxime complex possessing square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal geometries

A novel dinuclear Zn(II) complex with the chemical formula [Zn₂(L)(OCH₃)] has been synthesized by a bis(salamo)‐type tetraoxime ligand based on 3‐bromo‐5‐chlorosalicylicaldehyde, and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV–vis, and fluorescent spectra, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. All the Zn(II) atoms are pentacoordinated by N₂O₂ donor atoms from the (L)³⁻ unit and one oxygen atom from one μ₂‐methoxyl group. The Zn(II) (Zn1 and Zn4) atoms have distorted square pyramidal geometries (τ₁ = 0.458, τ₄ = 0.388), whereas the Zn2 and Zn3 atoms adopt trigonal bipyramidal (τ₂ = 0.675, τ₃ = 0.550) geometries. The Zn(II) complex is self‐assembled by intermolecular C H···O interactions to form an infinite three‐dimensional supramolecular structure. Interestingly, the intermolecular C H···π interactions in the Zn(II) complex is involved not in the formation of three‐dimensional structures but rather in the formation of the 0D dimer structure. Meanwhile, the optical properties of the Zn(II) complex were also measured and are discussed.

There are also sac moieties to act as N‐bonded ligand and as a counter anion. The molecular packing of the complex is provided by moderate hydrogen bonds as well as π···π interactions between the sac moieties. The IR spectra and the thermal decomposition of the complex are also discussed.

The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic system with space group . The crystalline structure of this compound consists of supramolecular architectures involving strong intramolecular N—H…O in pyrazine molecules and intermolecular O—H…N, O—H…O, and N—H…N hydrogen bonds between substituted pyrazine and water molecules.     

Four Complexes with the Rigid Ligand 1,4‐Bis(1H‐imidazol‐4‐yl)benzene and Varied Carboxylate Ligands

Four metal‐organic coordination polymers [Co₂(L)₃(nipa)₂]·6H₂O ( 1 ), [Cd(L)(nipa)]·3H₂O ( 2 ), [Co(L) (Hoxba)₂] ( 3 ) and [Ni₂(L)₂(oxba)₂(H₂O)]·1.5L·3H₂O ( 4 ) were synthesized by reactions of the corresponding metal(II) salts with the rigid ligand 1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐4‐yl)benzene (L) and different derivatives of 5‐nitroisophthalic acid (H₂nipa) and 4,4′‐oxybis(benzoic acid) (H₂oxba), respectively. The structures of the complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT‐IR spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Complexes 1 and 3 have the same one‐dimensional (1D) chain while 2 is a 6‐connected twofold interpenetrating three‐dimensional (3D) network with α ‐Po 4¹²·6³ topology based on the binuclear Cd^II subunits. Compound 4 features a puckered two‐dimensional (2D) (4,4) network, and the large voids of the packing 2D nets have accommodated the uncoordinated L guest molecules. An abundant of N–H···O, O–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonding interactions exist in complexes 1–4 , which contributes to stabilize the crystal structure and extend the low‐dimensional entities into high‐dimensional frameworks. Lastly, the photoluminiscent properties of compounds 2 were also investigated.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Properties of Lead(II), ­Zinc(II), and Manganese(II) Complexes Constructed from 2, 3, 5, 6‐Tetraiodo‐1, 4‐benzenedicarboxylic Acid

Three new coordination compounds, [Pb(HBDC‐I₄)₂(DMF)₄]( 1 ) and [M(BDC‐I₄)(MeOH)₂(DMF)₂]_n (M = Zn^II for 2 and Mn^II for ( 3 ) (H₂BDC‐I₄ = 2, 3, 5, 6‐tetraiodo‐1, 4‐benzenedicarboxylic acid), were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and X‐ray single crystal structure analysis. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction reveals that 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c and has a discrete mononuclear structure, which is further assembled to form a two‐dimensional (2D) layer through intermolecular O–H ··· O and C–H ··· O hydrogen bonding interactions. The isostructural compounds 2 and 3 crystallize in the space group P2₁/c and have similar one‐dimensional (1D) chain structures that are extended into three‐dimensional (3D) supramolecular networks by interchain C–H ··· π interactions. The Pb^II and Zn^II complexes 1 and 2 display similar emissions at 472 nm in the solid state, which essentially are intraligand transitions.     

Five Coordinated Zinc(II) and Tris‐Chelate Cadmium(II) Complexes with 2,2′‐Diamino‐5,5′‐dimethyl‐4,4′‐bithiazole – Syntheses,Spectroscopic Characterization,and Crystal Structure

The new synthesized ligand (DADMBTZ = 2,2′‐diamino‐5,5′‐dimethyl‐4,4′‐bithiazole), which is mentioned in this text, is used for preparing the two new complexes [Zn(DADMBTZ)₃](ClO₄)₂. 0.8MeOH.0.2H₂O ( 1 ) and [Cd(DADMBTZ)₃](ClO₄)₂ ( 2 ). The characterization was done by IR, ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X‐ray determination. In reaction with DADMBTZ, zinc(II) and cadmium(II) show different characterization. In 2 , to form a tris‐chelate complex with nearly C₃ symmetry for coordination polyhedron, DADMBTZ acts as a bidentate ligand. In 1 , this difference maybe relevant to small radii of Zn²⁺ which make one of the DADMBTZ ligands act as a monodentate ligand to form the five coordinated Zn²⁺ complex. In both 1 and 2 complexes the anions are symmetrically different. 1 and 2 complexes form 2‐D and 3‐D networks via N‐H···O and N‐H···N hydrogen bonds, respectively.
