Bioactive Penta-Coordinated Diorganotin(Iv) Complexes of Pyridoxalimine Schiff Bases

Abstract

Diorganotin(IV) complexes of an extended system derived from the condensation of pyridoxal hydrochloride with 2-amino phenol (H₂L¹), 2-amino-4-methyl phenol (H₂L²), 2-amino-4-chloro phenol (H₂L³), 2-amino-4-nitro phenol (H₂L⁴), 1-amino-2-naphthol hydrochloride (H₂L⁵) have been synthesized by the reaction of dichlorodiorganotin(IV) in a 1:1 molar ratio with these ligands. Spectral studies (IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR) along with physical data evidenced the formation of penta-coordinated species with the ligands acting as tridentate (ONO) with oxygen occupying the axial positions, and nitrogen at one of the equatorial positions. The ligands and their organotin complexes have been evaluated for antimicrobial activity against phytopathogenic fungi Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger at 25 ± 1 °C and bacteria Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus at 37 ± 1 °C. The activities of the ligands have been enhanced on complexation and the results indicate that they exhibit significant antimicrobial properties.

Synthesis and characterization of tin(IV)/organotin(IV) complexes with 2-benzoylpyridine-N(4)-cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone [HBPCT]: X-ray crystal structure of [SnCl3(BPCT)]

Four new tin(IV)/organotin(IV) complexes, [SnCl₃(BPCT)] (2), [MeSnCl₂(BPCT)] (3), [Me₂SnCl(BPCT)] (4), and [Ph₂SnCl(BPCT)] (5), have been synthesized by the direct reaction of 2-benzoylpyridine-N(4)-cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone [HBPCT, (1)] and stannic chloride/organotin(IV) chloride(s) in absolute methanol under purified nitrogen. HBPCT and its tin(IV)/organotin(IV) complexes (2–5) were characterized by CHN analyses, molar conductivity, UV-Vis, FT-IR, and ¹H NMR spectral studies. In all the complexes, tin(IV) was coordinated via pyridine-N, azomethine-N, and thiolato-S from 1. The molecular structure of 2 has been determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. Complex 2 is a monomer and the central tin(IV) is six-coordinate in a distorted octahedral geometry. The crystal system of 2 is monoclinic with space group P121/n1 and the unit cell dimensions are a?=?8.3564(3)?Å, b?=?23.1321(8)?Å, c?=?11.9984(4)?Å.     

Reactions of 1-alkynylphosphonates with group (IV) complexes

This article describes our recent methods for the synthesis of substituted vinylphosphonates by reacting 1-alkynylphosphnates with group (IV) complexes. cis-Vinylphosphonates, 1,3-butadienylphosphonates, 1-(hydroxymethyl)vinylphosphonates, 2-(hydroxymethyl)vinylphosphonates, (E) 3-oxo-1-alkenylphosphonates were produced as a result of the reactions between zirconium complexes and 1-alkynylphosphonates. On the other hand, titanium complexes afford 3-aminovinylphoshonates, 1,4-bis-phosphonates, and various other di- and tri-substituted vinylphosphonates. An evaluation of access of these recently synthesized vinylphosphonates as MMP-2 inhibitors has shown that certain compounds are very potent and promising.     

Synthesis of coordination compounds of dibutyltin(IV) with Schiff bases having nitrogen donor atoms

The new dibutyltin(IV) complexes of Schiff bases is designed & synthesis from the interaction between various substituted amines and aromatic aldehyde with general formula Bu₂Sn(L^1-7)₂Cl₂. Where L¹: (E)-4-chloro-N-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene) aniline; L²: (E)-2-chloro-N-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzylidene) aniline; L³: (E)-N-((1H-indol-3-yl) methylene)-4-chloro-2-nitroaniline; L⁴: (E)-4-nitro-N-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzylidene) aniline; L⁵: (E)-N-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzylidene) aniline; L⁶: (E)-4-nitro-N-(thiophen-3-ylmethylene) aniline; L⁷: (E)-4-chloro-2-nitro-N-(pyridin-3-ylmethylene) aniline. Analytical and spectroscopic methods, such as molar conductance measurement, UV–Vis, IR, NMR, and DFT studies, have been used to describe newly synthesised compounds. The DFT studies have also provided confirmation regarding the complexes' geometry. The results of the Tauc equation indicate that the fundamental band gap of the compound [Bu₂Sn(L⁵)₂Cl₂] is 2.670 eV, which is in agreement with the findings of DFT studies, which indicate that the band gap is 2.657 eV. The bactericidal effects of Schiff bases and their dibutyltin(IV) complexes were tested. The antibacterial activity of organotin(IV) complexes is enhanced in comparison to that of the free ligands.     

Carbonyl allylations by allylic chlorides utilizing a reduction of tin(IV) iodide to triiodostannate(II) species with iodide sources

Carbonyl allylations by allylic chlorides either with tin(IV) iodide and tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) in dichloromethane or with tin(IV) iodide and sodium iodide in 1,3-dimethylimidazolidin-2-one at room temperature produced the corresponding homoallylic alcohols. The carbonyl allylations probably proceeded via the reduction of tin(IV) iodide to triiodostannate(II) species with iodide sources such as TBAI and NaI, which led to the construction of a tin(IV)-catalytic cycle based on regeneration of tin(IV) iodide via the transmetalation of homoallyloxytriiodotin to homoallyloxytrimethylsilane with iodotrimethylsilane.     

Synthesis and characterization of a new tin(IV) complex for fabrication of an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and photoluminescence properties of the tin oxide core

A new tin(IV) complex, (C₁₃H₁₀NO)[SnCl₄(C₉H₆NO)]·2CH₃OH, was prepared in a facile process and characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR, IR, and UV spectroscopy in addition to single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Current–voltage (I–V) characteristics, photoluminescence (PL), and electroluminescence (EL) properties of the complex have been investigated and an application of the prepared complex in fabrication of an organic light-emitting diode has been demonstrated. The EL of the compound exhibits blue–green emission at 494?nm. Tin(IV) oxide core that resulted from direct thermal decomposition of the complex at 450?°C in air was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy; then, the PL property was investigated and compared with the PL of the complex. The tin(IV) oxide core showed a band gap of ～3.81?eV determined from the UV/visible absorption spectrum. The tin oxide core showed stable PL with one emission peak centered at 581?nm.     

Studies on some oxovanadium(IV) complexes of acyl pyrazolone analogues

A series of novel bidentate pyrazolone based Schiff base ligands were synthesized by interaction of 4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-(4′-methylphenyl)-2-pyrazolin-5-one with various aromatic amines like aniline, o-,m-,p-chloroaniline and o-,m-,p-toluidine in a ethanolic medium. All of these ligands have been characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR data. The molecular geometries of five of these ligands have been determined by single crystal X-ray study. Crystallographic study reveals that these ligands exist in the amine-one tautomeric form in the solid state. NMR study also suggests the existence of the amine-one form in solution at room temperature. Ab initio calculations for representative ligand HL¹ has been carried out to know the coordination site of the ligand. Novel vanadium Schiff base complexes of these ligands with general formula [OV(L^1–7)₂(H₂O)] have been prepared by interaction of aqueous solution of vanadyl sulfate pentahydrate with DMF solution of the appropriate ligands. The resulting complexes have been characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, vanadium determination, molar conductance and magnetic measurements, thermo gravimetric analysis, infrared and electronic spectral studies. Suitable distorted octahedral structures have been proposed for these complexes.     

The Synthesis and Spectroscopic Characterization of Heterobimetallic Bu2Sn(IV) Complexes Derived from Some Chelating Ligands

The interaction of Bu₂Sn(OPrⁱ)₂ with a trifunctional tetradentate Schiff base (LH₃) (where H₃L = HOC₆H₄CH═NCH₃C(CH₂OH)₂) yields the precursor complex Bu₂Sn(LH) 1, which, on equimolar reactions with different metal alkoxides [Al(OPrⁱ)₃, Bu₃Sn(OPrⁱ), Ge(OEt)₄]; Al(Medea)(OPrⁱ) (where Medea = CH₃N- (CH₂CH₂O)₂); and Me₃SiCl in the presence of Et₃N], affords, respectively, the complexes Bu₂Sn(L)Al(OPrⁱ)₂ 2, Bu₂Sn(L)Al(Medea) 3, Bu₂Sn(L)Bu₃Sn 4, Bu₂Sn(L)Ge(OEt)₃ 5, and Bu₂Sn(L)SiMe₃ 6. The reactions of 2 with 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol in a 1:1 ratio and with acetylacetone (acacH) in a 1:2 molar ratio afforded derivatives Bu₂Sn(L)Al(OC(CH₃)₂CH₂CH₂C(CH₃)₂ O) 7 and Bu₂Sn(L)Al(acac)₂ 8, respectively. All of the derivatives 1– 8 have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, and spectroscopic [IR and NMR (¹H, ¹¹⁹Sn, ²⁹Si, and ²⁷Al)] studies.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Diorganotin(IV) Complexes Bearing Binary Schiff‐Bases and Crystal Structure of nBu2SnL1

Four novel diorganotin(IV) complexes with general formula R₂SnL (R = nBu, PhCH₂) were synthesized from diorganotin dichlorides and binary Schiff‐bases (H₂L) containing N₂O₂ donor atoms in the presence of sodium ethoxide. The Schiff bases were prepared by reactions of o‐phenylenediamine with 3‐tert‐butyl‐2‐hydroxy‐5‐methylbenzaldehyde (H₂L¹) and salicylaldehyde (H₂L²) respectively. The compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, and NMR spectroscopy. The solid‐state crystal structure of the compound nBu₂SnL¹ was determined by single‐crystal structural analysis.     

Synthesis and reactivity of new trimethylplatinum(IV) complexes containing chiral Schiff bases as ligands: Crystal structure of (OC-6-44-C)-[PtIMe3{κ-(R)-Ph2P(C6H4)CHNC*H(Ph)Me-P,N}]

Reaction of the tetranuclear complex [PtIMe₃]₄ with the ligand (S)- and (R)-Ph₂P(C₆H₄)CHNC*H(Ph)Me in a 1:4 molar ratio yields the mononuclear neutral complexes in diastereoisomeric mixtures [PtIMe₃{κ²-Ph₂P(C₆H₄)CHNC*H(Ph)Me-P,N}]. Iodide abstraction from mixture with AgBF₄ in the presence of pyridine (Py) induces a reductive elimination reaction with loss of ethane, leading to the cationic complex [PtMe(Py){κ²-Ph₂P(C₆H₄)CHNC*H(Ph)Me-P,N}][BF₄] [C* = (S)-, 3; (R)-, 4]. When this reaction was carried out in the presence of PPh₃ a consecutive orthometallation reaction with loss of methane is produced, forming the cationic complex [Pt(PPh₃){κ³-Ph₂P(C₆H₄)CHNC*H(C₆H₄)Me-C,P,N}][BF₄], [(S)-, 5; (R)-, 6]. All species were characterised in solution by ¹H and ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and mass spectrometry.The crystal structure of the diastereoisomer (OC-6-44-C)-[PtIMe₃{κ²-(R)-Ph₂P(C₆H₄)CHNC*H(Ph)Me-P,N}] has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.     

The structures and cyclic voltammetry of three copper(II) complexes derived from bulky ortho-hydroxy Schiff bases

Three copper(II) complexes derived from bulky ortho-hydroxy Schiff base ligands, (1)-(3), were synthesized and characterized by chemical analysis, UV-Vis, IR, μ_eff and mass spectrometry. The solid state structures of compounds (1)-(3) were determined. The solid state X-ray diffraction studies of these compounds show that the geometry is intermediate between square planar and tetrahedral. Moreover, EPR studies in DMF solution at 77 K suggest that the geometry of these complexes in solution is different from that observed in the solid state by X-ray crystallography. Furthermore, cyclic voltammetry studies performed for (1)-(3), indicate a dependence of the cathodic potentials upon conformational and electronic effects.     

Synthesis of the first examples of stable heterometallic isopropoxides of an organometallic RSn(IV) moiety

Five-, six-, and seven-coordinate volatile butyltin(IV) heterobimetallic derivatives, respectively of the types, [BuSn{(μ-OPrⁱ)₂Al(OPrⁱ)₂}Cl₂] (1), [BuSn{(μ-OPrⁱ)₂Al(OPrⁱ)₂}₂Cl] (2), and BuSn{(μ-OPrⁱ)₂M(OPrⁱ)_x − 2}₃ (3:M = Al (x = 4); 4:M = Ga (x = 4); 5:M = Nb (x = 6)) have been synthesized by the reactions of BuSnCl₃ with potassium tetraisopropoxoaluminate in 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 molar ratios. Replacement reactions of chloride in (1) and (2) with appropriate alkoxometallate (tetraisopropoxoaluminate, tetraisopropoxogallate, or hexaisopropoxoniobate) ligands result in the formation of novel BuSn(IV) heterotri- and tetra-metallic derivatives. All of these derivatives have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, and spectroscopic (IR, ¹H, ²⁷Al, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR) studies. Based on these studies, plausible structures for the new derivatives involving bidentate ligation of the alkoxometallate ligands have been suggested.     

Penta- and heptacoordinated tin(IV) compounds derived from pyridine Schiff bases and 2-pyridine carboxylate: Synthesis and structural characterization

The synthesis of the Sn(IV)-complexed, Schiff base derivatives 1a-1l, prepared in one pot by the reaction of 2-amino-4-R-phenol (R = H, Me, Cl, NO₂), 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, 2-picolinic acid and dimethyl-, dibutyl-, and diphenyltin oxides, is described. The complexes were characterized by IR, MS, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR. Suitable crystals of 1e and 1h enabled us to use X-ray diffraction to determine their molecular structures, which exhibited pentagonal-bipyramidal geometries where the butyl groups occupied the axial positions whereas the nitrogen and the oxygen atoms occupied the equatorial positions. The reaction of the Schiff base 2 with dibutyltin oxide led to the pentacoordinated complex, 2h, through the addition of methanol to the CN bond. An unusual reduction-oxidation reaction took place by the reaction of 2-amino-4-nitro-phenol, dibutyltin oxide and 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, which produced the corresponding amine, 3h, and the amide, 4h, tin(IV) derivatives. Both structures were established by X-ray crystallography and exhibited a distorted, bipyramidal trigonal (BPT) geometry.     

Fungicidal,bactericidal and antifertility activities of diorganosilicon(IV) complexes derived from benzothiazolines

Synthetic, structural and biological aspects of trigonal-bipyramidal, Me₂S(N—S)CI and octahedral, Me₂Si(N—S)₂ types of diorganosilicon(IV) complexes of heterocyclic benzothiazolines (N—SH) are described. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight determination, conductance measurements and electronic, infrared, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic studies. Some ligands and their corresponding dimethylsilicon(IV) complexes have been tested for their effects on several pathogenic fungi and bacteria and found to be quite active in this respect. Antifertility activity in male mice of some representative ligands and their silicon complexes was also evaluated and discussed.     

Tin(IV) complexes obtained by reacting 2-benzoylpyridine-derived thiosemicarbazones with SnCl4 and Ph2SnCl2

Reaction of 2-benzoylpyridine thiosemicarbazone (H2Bz4DH, HL1) and its N(4)-methyl (H2Bz4Me, HL2) and N(4)-phenyl (H2Bz4Ph, HL3) derivatives with SnCl₄ and diphenyltin dichloride (Ph₂SnCl₂) gave [Sn(L1)Cl₃] (1), [Sn(L1)PhCl₂] (2), [Sn(L2)Cl₃] (3), (4) [Sn(L3)PhCl₂] (5) and [Sn(L3)Ph₂Cl] (6). Infrared and ¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra of 1-3, 5 and 6 are compatible with the presence of an anionic ligand attached to the metal through the N_py-N-S chelating system and formation of hexacoordinated tin complexes. The crystal structures of 1-3, 5 and 6 show that the geometry around the metal is a distorted octahedron formed by the thiosemicarbazone and either chlorides or chlorides and phenyl groups. The crystal structure of 4 reveals the presence of and trans [Ph₂SnCl₄]²⁻.     

Structural and conformational analysis of neutral dinuclear diorganotin(IV) complexes derived from hexadentate Schiff base ligands

The synthesis of three hexadentate Schiff base ligands has been carried out, which contain two sets of ONO donor atoms. These were reacted with diorganotin(IV) dichloride derivatives (R = Me, nBu, Ph) to prepare seven dinuclear diorganotin(IV) complexes in moderate yields. Aside from IR and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn) spectroscopic studies, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis, four tin complexes were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The spectroscopic analyses showed that in solution the tin atoms have five-coordinate environments with a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Each tin atom is coordinated to the nitrogen atom and forms covalent bonds with two oxygen atoms and two carbon atoms. Due to the presence of a methylene group as bridge between the two ONO chelates, the overall molecular structures can have cis or trans conformation, having either mirror or C₂-symmetry. While in solution a fast equilibrium can be supposed, in the solid state different intermediate conformations have been detected. Furthermore, for the dialkyltin derivatives Sn?O intermolecular interactions were found allowing for a dimeric or crinkled polymeric organization, whereas for the diphenyltin derivatives no such interactions were observed.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic and thermodynamic studies of new transition metal complexes with N,N′-bis(2-hydroxynaphthalin-1-carbaldehydene)-1,2-bis(m-aminophenoxy)ethane and their determination by spectrophotometric methods

A novel tetradentate N₂O₂-type Schiff base, synthesized from 1,2-bis(m-aminophenoxy)ethane and 2-hydroxynaphthalin-1-carbaldehyde, forms stable complexes with transition metal ions such as Cu(II), VO(IV) and Zn(II) in DMF. Microanalytical data, elemental analysis, magnetic measurements, UV, visible and IR spectra as well as conductance measurements were used to confirm the structures. The stability constants of these complexes in 60% (v/v) DMF–water were determined at different ionic strengths (0.07,?0.13,?0.2?M) and at different temperatures (45,?50,?55,?60?±?0.1°C) using a spectrophotometric method. From these constants, thermodynamic stability constants and thermodynamic parameters (ΔG?⁰, ΔH?⁰, ΔS?⁰) were calculated. The values of enthalpy change are negative for all systems. The acid dissociation constant of the ligand, investigated in 60% (v/v) DMF–water, has also been calculated at different temperatures.     

Reaction of dirhodium(II) tetraacetate with S-methyl-L-cysteine

Abstract

The reaction of antitumor active dirhodium(II) tetraacetate, [Rh₂(AcO)₄], with S-methyl-L-cysteine (HSMC) was studied at the pH of mixing (=4.8) in aqueous media at various temperatures under aerobic conditions. The results from UV–vis spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI–MS) showed that HSMC initially coordinates via its sulfur atom to the axial positions of the paddlewheel framework of the dirhodium(II) complex, and was confirmed by the crystal structure of [Rh₂(AcO)₄(HSMC)₂]. After some time (48?h at 25?°C), or at elevated temperature (40?°C), Rh-SMC chelate formation causes breakdown of the paddlewheel structure, generating the mononuclear Rh(III) complexes [Rh(SMC)₂]⁺, [Rh(AcO)(SMC)₂] and [Rh(SMC)₃], as indicated by ESI–MS. These aerobic reaction products of [Rh₂(AcO)₄] with HSMC have been compared with those of the two proteinogenic sulfur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine. Comparison shows that the (S,N)-chelate ring size influences the stability of the [Rh₂(AcO)₄] paddlewheel cage structure and its Rh^II–Rh^II bond, when an amino acid with a thioether group coordinates to dirhodium(II) tetraacetate.     

Synthesis and characterization of pentagonal bipyramidal organotin(IV) complexes of 2,6-diacetylpyridine Schiff bases of S-alkyl- and aryldithiocarbazates

New organotin(IV) complexes with empirical formula Sn(SNNNS)R₂, where SNNNS is the dianionic form of 2,6-diacetylpyridine Schiff bases of S-methyldithiocarbazate (H₂dapsme) or S-benzyldithiocarbazate (H₂dapsbz) and R = Ph or Me, have been prepared and characterized by IR, UV-Vis, NMR and Mössbauer spectroscopic techniques and conductance measurements. The molecular structures of the Sn(dapsme)R₂ (R = Ph and Me) have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Both complexes have a distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry in which the tin is coordinated by a dinegatively charged pentadentate chelating agent via pyridine nitrogen, two azomethine nitrogens, and two thiolate sulfurs. The five donors (N₃S₂) provided by the Schiff base occupy the equatorial plane close to a pentagonal planar array while the carbanion ligands occupy axial sites.
