Synthesis and Characterization of New Macrocyclic Cu（Ⅱ） Complexes from Various Diamines, Copper（Ⅱ） Nitrate and 1,4-Bis（2-formylphenoxy）butane

Six new macrocyclic complexes were synthesized by a template reaction of 1,4-bis（2-formylphenoxy）butane with diamines and Cu（NO3）2·3H2O and their structures were proposed on the basis of elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductivity measurements and mass spectra. The metal to ligand molar ratios of the Cu（Ⅱ） complexes were found to be 1 ： 1. The Cu（Ⅱ） complexes are 1 ： 2 electrolytes as shown by their molar conductivities （∧m） in DMF at 10^-3 mol·L^-1. Due to the existence of free ions the Cu（Ⅱ） complexes are electrically conductive. Their configurations were proposed to be probably distorted octahedral.

Synthesis and structure of a new ternary monocopper(II) complex containing mixed ligands of 2,2′‐diamino‐4,4′‐bithiazole and picrate: in vitro anticancer activity,molecular docking and reactivity towards DNA

A new ternary monocopper(II) complex with co‐ligands of 2,2′‐diamino‐4,4′‐bithiazole (dabt) and picrate (pic), namely [Cu(dabt)(pic)₂], has been synthesized and characterized using elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, infrared and electronic spectral studies and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.

The molecular docking of the complex with DNA sequence d(ACCGACGTCGGT)₂ demonstrated that the copper(II) complex is stabilized by hydrogen bonding interaction. The in vitro anticancer activities suggested that the copper(II) complex is active against selected tumor cell lines. The effects of the two co‐ligands in the copper(II) complex on DNA‐binding events and in vitro anticancer activity are preliminarily discussed. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
