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.

Preparation and Characterization of an Unusual Di-Cobalt Complex; X-Ray Crystal Structure of Co(CO)2(μ-CO)(μ:η2,η4-C4Ph4)Co(CO)2(PPh3)

Reaction of [MoCo(CO)₅(PPh₃)₂(η⁵-C₅H₅)] (1) with diphenylacetylene in tetrahydrofuran at 50 °C yielded two heterobimetallic compounds, [MoCo(CO)₄.(PPh₃){μ-PhC ? CPh}(η⁵-C₅H₅)] (4) and [MoCo(CO)₅{μ-PhC ? CPh} (η⁵-C₅H₅)] (5). However, an unexpected product, Co(CO)₂(μ-CO)(μ:η₂,η⁴-C₄Ph₄)Co(CO)₂(PPh₃) (6), was observed while attempting to grow the crystals for structural determination of 4. The X-ray crystal structure of 6 was determined: triclinic, $ {\rm P}\bar 1 $, a = 11.654(2) Å, b = 12.864(2) Å, c = 13.854(2) Å, α = 89.67(2)°, β = 86.00(2)°, γ= 83.33(2)°, V = 2057.9(6) ų Z=2. In 6, two cobalt fragments are at apical and basal positions of the pseudo-pentagonal pyramidal structure, respectively. The electron count for the apical cobalt fragments is 20, which is rather unusual. It is believed that 6 was formed after the fragmentation and recombination of the fragmented species of 4.

Transition metal complexes of arginine (using Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) cations separately) were synthesized and characterized by FTIR, TG/DTA‐DrTG, UV‐Vis spectroscopy and elemental analysis methods. Cu(II)‐Arg complex crystals was found suitable for x‐ray diffraction studies. It was contained, one mole Cu^II and Na⁺ ions, two arginate ligands, one coordinated aqua ligand and one solvent NO₃^? group in the asymmetric unit. The principle coordination sites of metal atom have been occupied by two N atoms of arginate ligands, two carboxylate O atoms, while the apical site was occupied by one O atom for Cu^II cation and two O atoms for Co^II, Ni^II, Zn^II atoms of aqua ligands. Although Cu^II ion adopts a square pyramidal geometry of the structure. Co^II, Ni^II, Zn^II cations have octahedral due to coordination number of these metals. Neighbouring chains were linked together to form a three‐dimensional network via hydrogen‐bonding between coordinated water molecule, amino atoms and O atoms of the bridging carboxylate groups. Cu^II complex was crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2₁, a = 8.4407(5) Å, b = 12.0976(5) Å, c = 10.2448(6) Å, V = 1041.03(10) ų, Z = 2. Structures of the other metal complexes were similar to CuII complex, because of their spectroscopic studies have in agreement with each other. Copper complex has shown DNA like helix chain structure. Lastly, anti‐bacterial, anti‐microbial and anti‐fungal biological activities of complexes were investigated.     

Synthesis, characterization, antitumor activity of nickel(Ⅱ) and cobalt (Ⅱ) complexes of 2,2''''-diamino-4,4''''-bithiazole and their interaction with dGMP

New complexes,of bis(2,2'-diamino-4,4'-bithiazole)sulfate nickel(Ⅱ) and bis(2,2'-diami-no-4,4'-bithiazole)sulfate cobalt(Ⅱ),have been prepared.The complexes were characterized by infrared and UV-Vis spectroscopy,1H NMR,elemental analyses and molar conductivity.The effect of these complexes on the DNA synthesis of sarcoma 180 cells has been studied by the technique of isotopic liquid scintillation.The results indicated that complexes show ability to inhibit DNA synthesis of the tumor cells.In order to provide a molecular basis for understanding the biological effects,the probe,[trana-en2Os(η2-H2)](CF3SO3)2 (en,ethylenediamine) as a monitor was first used to explore interaction of the complexes with 2'-deoxyguanosine-5'-monophosphate (dGMP).     

Inclusion complexes of α‐cyclodextrin and (AB)n block copolymers

Cyclodextrins thread onto polymer chains to form inclusion complexes, especially when the polymer is hydrophobic relative to the solvent. Selective threading might occur when the polymer architecture contains both hydrophobic and hydrophilic segments. α‐Cyclodextrin formed crystalline inclusion complexes with (AB)_n microblock copolymers, where the A block was a linear alkyl segment containing a single double bond and the B block was an exact length segment of poly(ethylene oxide). The complexes were isolated and characterized by solution and solid‐state NMR, X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. Each method confirmed complex formation and showed that the physical properties of the complexes were distinct from those of its individual components. The X‐ray data were consistent with known inclusion complexes having a channel or column crystal structure. The stoichiometry of the complex formation, 2.3 α‐cyclodextrin rings per polymer repeat unit, was determined by NMR analysis of the complexes and from an analysis of the inclusion complex yields. The data suggest that the inclusion complex stoichiometry is defined by the increasing insolubility of the polymer–cyclodextrin complex. Solid‐state NMR data were consistent with a preference for threading onto hydrophobic segments of the (AB)_n polymer. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

[Be3(μ3‐O)3(MeCN)6{Be(MeCN)3}3](I)6 – ein Berylliumkomplex mit Cyclo‐(Be3O3)‐Kern und sein Hydrolyseprodukt [Be(H2O)4](I)2·2MeCN

Single crystals of [Be₃(μ₃‐O)₃(MeCN)₆{Be(MeCN)₃}₃](I)₆·4CH₃CN ( 1 ·4CH₃CN) were obtained in low yield by the reaction of beryllium powder with iodine in acetonitrile suspension, which probably result from traces of beryllium oxide containing the applied beryllium metal. The compound 1 ·4CH₃CN forms moisture sensitive, colourless crystal needles, which were characterized by IR spectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction (Space group Pnma, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 100(2) K: a = 2317.4(1), b = 2491.4(1), c = 1190.6(1) pm, R₁ = 0.0315). The hexaiodide complex cation 1 ⁶⁺consists of a cyclo‐Be₃O₃ core with slightly distorted chair conformation, stabilized by coordination of two acetonitrile ligands at each of the beryllium atoms and by a {Be(CH₃CN)₃}²⁺ cation at each of the oxygen atoms. This unique coordination behaviour results in coplanar OBe₃ units with short Be–O distances of 155.0 pm and 153.6 pm on average of bond lengths within the cyclo‐Be₃O₃ unit and of the peripheric BeO bonds, respectively. Exposure of compound 1 ·4CH₃CN to moist air leads to small orange crystal plates of [Be(H₂O)₄]I₂·2CH₃CN ( 3 ·2CH₃CN). According to the crystal structure determination (Space group C2/c, Z = 4, lattice dimensions at 100(2) K: a = 1220.7(1), b = 735.0(1), c = 1608.5(1) pm, β = 97.97(1)°, R₁ = 0.0394), all hydrogen atoms of the dication [Be(H₂O)₄]²⁺ are involved to form O–H ··· N and O–H ··· I hydrogen bonds with the acetonitrile molecules and the iodide ions, respectively. Quantum chemical calculations (B3LYP/6‐311+G**) at the model [Be₃(μ₃‐O)₃(HCN)₆{Be(HCN)₃}₃]⁶⁺ show that chair and boat conformation are stable and that the distorted chair conformation is stabilized by packing effects.     

Crystallographic report: A synthetic precursor for hetero‐binuclear metal complexes, [Ru(bpy)(dppy)2(CO)2](PF6)2 (bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine,dppy = 2‐(diphenylphosphino)pyridine)

In the title complex, [Ru(bpy)(dppy)₂(CO)₂](PF₆)₂ (bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, dppy = 2‐(diphenylphosphino)pyridine), the ruthenium atom exhibits a slightly distorted octahedral coordination with the carbonyl ligands in cis positions.

The heteroscorpionate ligand 2,2‐bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)‐1,1‐diphenylethanol and an easy preparation of its tungsten complex

The heteroscorpionate ligand 2,2‐bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)‐1,1‐diphenylethanol, C₂₄H₂₆N₄O, features in the solid state an intramolecular O—H…N hydrogen bond. A heteroscorpionate tungsten complex, cis‐[2,2‐bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazolyl)‐1,1‐diphenylethanolato]chloridodioxidotungsten(VI) tetrahydrofuran monosolvate, [W(C₂₄H₂₅N₄O)ClO₂]·C₄H₈O, was prepared by the simple mixing of solutions of the ligand and WOCl₄ in tetrahydrofuran. The tungsten complex was isolated after standing for several weeks. The complex exhibits a κ³N,N′,O‐coordination of the ligand. This simple synthetic procedure allows access to the cis isomer in high yield without additional purification steps. The Hirshfeld surface analysis shows a change of the intermolecular contacts due to the coordination of the WO₂Cl unit with the ligand molecule.     

Facile Insertion of Carbon Dioxide into Cu2(μ‐H) Dinuclear Units Supported by Tetraphosphine Ligands

Reactions of meso‐bis[(diphenylphosphinomethyl)phenylphosphino]methane (dpmppm) with Cu^I species in the presence of NaBH₄ afforded di‐ and tetranuclear copper hydride complexes, [Cu₂(μ‐H)(μ‐dpmppm)₂]X ( 1 ) and [Cu₄(μ‐H)₂(μ₄‐H)(μ‐dpmppm)₂]X ( 2 ) (X=BF₄, PF₆). Complex 1 undergoes facile insertion of CO₂ (1 atm) at room temperature, leading to a formate‐bridged dicopper complex [Cu₂(μ‐HCOO)(dpmppm)₂]X ( 3 ). The experimental and DFT theoretical studies clearly demonstrate that CO₂ insertion into the Cu₂(μ‐H) unit occurred with the flexible dicopper platform. Complex 2 also undergoes CO₂ insertion to give a formate‐bridged complex, [Cu₄(μ‐HCOO)₃(dpmppm)₂]X, during which the square Cu₄ framework opened up to a linear tetranuclear chain.

The reactions of dilithium salt of trans-1,2-bis（trimethylsilylamino）cyclohexane with anhydrous lanthanide trichlorides LnCl3 （Ln = Yb, Nd） in THF afforded the dianionic binuclear tricycles of lanthanide chlorides {Li（THF）3[LnCl（μ2-trans-1,2-（NSiMe3）2C6H10）（μ2-Cl）]}2·2THF （Ln=Yb 1, Nd 2） in moderate yields. Both of the bridged complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal structural analysis shows that the two complexes are the analogues which have a tricyclic framework built by two bridged lanthanide metals, four nitrogens and four carbons from two diamide ligands. Each lanthanide metal coordinates to three nitrogen atoms and two chlorines to form a distorted trigonal bipyramid and connects with a lithium by a bridging chlorine.
