A new calix[4]pyrrole functionalized vic-dioxime, 3-(4-methyl-9,9,14,14,19,19-hexaethylcalix[4]pyrrole)benzoaminoglyoxime (LH₂) was synthesized from anti-chloroglyoxime and 3-aminophenyl-calix[4]pyrrole at room temperature. The mononuclear complexes {nickel(II), copper(II) and cobalt(II)} of this vic-dioxime ligand were prepared and their structures were confirmed by elemental analysis, IR and UV–Vis spectrophotometry, magnetic susceptibility; the MS, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of the LH₂ ligand and its Ni(II) complex were also recorded. The experimental results indicated that the ligand:metal ratio was 2:1 in the cases of Ni(II), Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes as is with most vic-dioximes. Electrochemical properties of the ligand, and its complexes were investigated in DMSO solution by cyclic voltammetry at 200?mV?s^?1 scan rate.

This paper presents a new azacrown containing vic-dioxime; anti-N-(4-aminophenyl)aza-15-crown-5-glyoxime (LH₂), and its mononuclear nickel(II), copper(II), cobalt(II), cadmium(II) and zinc(II) complexes. The azacrown moieties appended at the periphery of the oxime provide solubility for the vic-dioxime ligand and complexes in common organic solvents. The mononuclear M(LH)₂ (M = Ni and Cu), M(LH)₂(H₂O)₂ (M = Co) and [M(LH)(H₂O)(Cl)] (M = Cd and Zn) complexes have been obtained with the metal:ligand ratios of 1:2 and 1:1. The structure of the ligand is confirmed by elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), mass spectrometry (MS), one-dimensional (1D) ¹H, ¹³C NMR, distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) and two-dimensional (2D) heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) techniques. The structures of the complexes are confirmed by elemental analyses, MS, UV-Vis, FT-IR and ¹H, ¹³C NMR techniques. Redox behaviors of the ligand and its complexes have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry at the glassy carbon electrode in 0.1 M TBATFB in DMSO. The antibacterial activity was studied against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Streptococcus mutans RSHM 676, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Lactobacillus acidophilus RSHM 06029, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonasaeruginosa ATCC 27853. The antimicrobial test results indicate that all the complexes have low levels of antibacterial activity against both Gram negative and Gram positive bacterial species.     

A vic -dioxime ligand bearing fluorescent coumarin moieties and its complexes; preparation,spectroscopy, and electrochemistry

The synthesis of a new vic-dioxime ligand, N,N′²-dihydroxy-O ¹,O ²-bis(4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl)oxalimidamid (LH₂) (1), bearing functional coumarins and its soluble mono- {Ni(II), Cu(II), Co(II)} and dinuclear {UO₂(II)} complexes are presented. The fluorescence properties due to the 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin fluorophore, which is conjugated with vic-dioxime that functions as the MN₄ core of 1 and its complexes, are also reported. The formation of coordination complexes resulted in the blue shift in excitation spectrum and fluorescence quenching of 1. Both mononuclear {(LH)₂M, M=Ni(II), Cu(II), and Co(II)} and homodinuclear {(LH)₂(UO₂)₂(OH)₂)} complexes have been obtained with metal?:?ligand ratios of 1?:?2 and 2?:?2, respectively. The characterizations of the new compounds were made by elemental analysis, ¹H-NMR, FT-IR, UV-Vis, and LCMS data. Redox behavior of 1, involving oxime and coumarin moieties, and its complexes with Ni(II), Cu(II), Co(II) and UO₂(II) were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The comparison of the electrochemical behavior of 1 with its complexes enabled us to identify metal-, oxime- and coumarin-based signals.

Coumarin-derivatized fluorescent <Emphasis Type="Italic">vic</Emphasis>-dioxime-type ligand and its complexes; the preparation,spectroscopy, and electrochemistry

A new vic-dioxime bearing coumarin functionality, N′¹,N′²-Dihydroxy-N ¹,N ²-bis(4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl)oxalimidamid (LH₂), N,N-bis-[4-methylcoumarinyl]-diamino glyoxime (LH₂), and its mono- and dinuclear complexes {copper^II, cobalt^II, nickel^II and uranyl^II} have been reported. The fluorescence excitation and emission spectra of LH₂ and its complexes with metal ions were examined. It was observed that fluorescence and excitation emission intensity of LH₂ was quenched depending on complex formation with metal ions. The characterizations of all newly synthesized compounds were made by elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r, i.r., u.v.–vis., and l.c-m.s./m.s. data. Electrochemical behaviour of the ligand involving oxime and coumarine moieties, and its complexes with Ni^II, Cu^II, Co^II and UO ₂ ^II were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The comparison of the electrochemical behaviour of the ligand with its complexes enabled us to identify metal-, oxime- and coumarine-based signals.     

Binary and Ternary Complexes of Copper(II) Involving N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethylethylenediamine (Me4en) and Various Biologically Relevant Ligands

Binary and ternary complexes of copper(II) involving N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylene-diamine (Me₄en) and various biologically relevant ligands containing different functional groups are investigated. The ligands (L) used are dicarboxylic acids, amino acids, peptides and DNA unit constituents. The ternary complexes of amino acids, dicarboxylic acids or peptides are formed by simultaneous reactions. The results showed the formation of Cu(Me₄en)(L) complexes with amino acids and dicarboxylic acids. The effect of chelate ring size of the dicarboxylic acid complexes on their stability constants was examined. Peptides form both Cu(Me₄en)(L) complexes and the corresponding deprotonated amide species Cu(Me₄en)(LH₋₁). The ternary complexes of copper(II) with (Me₄en) and DNA are formed in a stepwise process, whereby binding of copper(II) to (Me₄en) is followed by ligation of the DNA components. DNA constituents form both 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with Cu(Me₄en)²⁺. The concentration distribution of the complexes in solution was evaluated. [Cu(Me₄en)(CBDCA)] and [Cu(Me₄en)(malonate)] are isolated and characterized by elemental analysis and infrared measurements.

Mononuclear [M(mmdH)₂], where M = Ni^II, Co^II and Cu^II complexes of the (4) mmdH₂ bidentate ligand have been obtained with a 1:2 metal:ligand ratio, as do most the vic-dioximes. The complexes are formed by coordination of N, N atoms of the ligand. The vic-dioxime ligand and its some transition metal complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance data, magnetic susceptibility, i.r., ¹H-n.m.r and u.v.–vis. spectroscopy. Conductivity measurements have shown that mononuclear complexes are non-electrolytes. In addition, the ligands and metal complexes were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities by agar well diffusion techniques using DMF as solvent.     

Synthesis and Characterization of a New (E,E)-Dioxime and its Homonuclear Complexes

N′-(4′-Benzo[15-crown-5]naphthylaminoglyoxime (H₂L) and its sodium chloride complex (H₂L·NaCl) have been prepared from 2-naphthylchloroglyoxime, 4′-aminobenzo[15-crown-5] and sodium bicarbonate or sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride. Nickel(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes of H₂L and H₂L·NaCl have a metal–ligand ratio of 1:2 and the ligand coordinates through the two N atoms, as do most of the vic-dioximes. The BF₂⁺-capped Ni(II), Co(III) and mononuclear complexes of thevic-dioxime were prepared. The macrocyclic ligands and their transition metal complexes have been characterized on the basis of IR, ¹H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses data.     

Synthesis, Spectral Characterization and Electrochemical Properties of New vic-dioxime Complexes Bearing Carboxylate

Three new vic-dioxime ligands, [N-(ethyl-4-amino-1-piperidine carboxylate)-phenylglyoxime (L¹H₂), N-(ethyl-4-amino-1-piperidine carboxylate)-glyoxime (L²H₂), and N,N′-bis(ethyl-4-amino-1-piperidine carboxylate)-glyoxime (L³H₂)], and their Co(II) with Cu(II) metal complexes, were synthesized for the first time. Mononuclear complexes of these ligands with a 1:2 metal-ligand ratio were prepared with Co(II) and Cu(II) salts. The BF₂⁺-capped Co(II) and mononuclear complexes of the vic-dioxime were prepared for [Co(L¹·BF₂)₂] and [Co(L²·BF₂)₂]. The ligands act in a polydentate fashion bonding through nitrogen atoms in the presence of a base, as do most vic-dioximes. The cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes are non-electrolytes as shown by their molar conductivities (Λ_M) in DMF. The structures of the ligands and complexes were determined by elemental analyses, FT-i.r., u.v.–vis., ¹H- and ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and molar conductivity. The comparative electrochemical studies show that the stabilities of the reduced or oxidized species and the electrode potentials of the complexes are affected by the substituents attached on the oxime moieties of the complexes.

In this study, 1,2-dihydroxyimino-3,7-di-aza-9,10-O-α-methyl benzal decane (LH₂) was synthesized starting from 1,2-O-α-methyl benzal-4-aza-7-amino heptane (RNH₂) and antichloroglyoxime.

vic-Dioxime ligands (LH₂) containing branched alkylthioether chains of different length have been prepared from (E,E)-dichloroglyoxime and corresponding thiol derivatives. Mononuclear Ni(II) complexes (5a–5c) were synthesized in ethanol by reacting NiCl₂ · 6H₂O with new ligands (4a–4c) in the presence of KOH.

The compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR, and ESI-Mass spectrometry. While 5a and 5b are solid at room temperature, 5c is obtained as an orange viscous liquid. The thermal stabilities of the complexes were determined by thermogravimetric analysis.

A new soluble vic-dioxime ligand namely 1,4-bis(2′-hydroxyethyl)-2,3-bis(hydroxyimino)-5,6-diphenylpiperazine, (LH₂) containing optically active centers has been prepared as a mixture of isomers from (CNO)₂ and N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)stilbendiamine (1) which has been made by the reduction of the condensation of the product of benzaldehyde and 2-aminoethanol in the presence of aluminum amalgam. N,N-coordinated planar metal complexes of this ligand have been synthesized with Ni^II, Cu^II, Co^II, Pd^II and U^VIO₂. Oxidation of (LH)₂Co in the presence of a base, such as pyridine, leads to an octahedral complex (LH)₂CopyCl containing pyridine and chloride as axial ligands in addition to vic-dioxime ligands. The structures of the ligand and its complexes are proposed on the basis of elemental analysis, ¹H-n.m.r., mass, i.r. and u.v.–vis. spectral data.
