N,N′-Bis(trimethylsilylmethyl)thiocarbamide and N,N′-Bis(trimethylsilylmethyl)-λ6-thiocarbamide S,S-Dioxide

N,N′-Bis(trimethylsilylmethyl)-λ⁶-thiocarbamide S,S-dioxide was synthesized by oxidation of N,N′-bis(trimethylsilylmethyl)thiocarbamide with hydrogen peroxide. The synthesized dioxide is a less active reducing agent than previously studied S,S-dioxides of organosilicon thiocarbamides in which the silicon atom is separated from the thiocarbamide fragment by a -CH₂CH₂CH₂- bridge.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 6, 2005, pp. 912–914.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Vlasova, Grigor’eva, Voronkov.     

Reactions of N,N'-Dimethyl-N,N'-bis(trimethylsilyl)methylphosphonic Diamide with Chloral and Chloromethyldimethylchlorosilane

N,N'-Dimethyl-N,N'-bis(trimethylsilyl)methylphosphonic diamide reacts with chloral to form 1,2,3-trimethyl-4,4-dichloro-5-trimethylsiloxy-1,3,2-diazaphospholidine 2-oxide and with chloromethyldi- methylchlorosilane to form 1,2,3,4,4-pentamethyl-1,3-diaza-2-phospha-4-silacyclopentane 2-oxide.     

N,N'-Bis(vinyloxyalkyl) Dicarboxamides

N,N'-Bis(vinyloxyalkyl)oxamides and N,N'-bis(vinyloxyalkyl)phthalamides were synthesized in 60-95% yield by reactions of vinyloxyalkylamines with diethyl oxalate and phthalimide, respectively.     

N,N'-Bis(3-triethoxysilyl)phthalic Diamide, N,N'-Bis(3-triethoxysilyl)malonic Damide and Derivatives

Condensation of 3-triethoxysilylpropylamine with malonic amide was studied. The condensation products, dicarboxylic acid diamides (malonic and phthalic), were used for peretherification with triethanolamine and thus new representatives of silatran series compounds were prepared: N,N'-bis(3-triethoxysilyl)malonic diamide and -phthalic diamide. By hydrolytic polycondensation of N,N'-bis(3-triethoxysilyl)malonic diamide we synthesized an organosilicon polymer with silsesquioxane structure, which we studied as a sorbent of platinum group metals rhodium, palladium and platinum. Peculiar features of sorption activity of the polymer and speculative mechanism of metal sorption are discussed.     

Enhanced Anion Binding from Unusual Coordination Modes of Bis(thiourea) Ligands in Platinum Group Metal Complexes

Treatment of a range of bis(thiourea) ligands with inert organometallic transition‐metal ions gives a number of novel complexes that exhibit unusual ligand binding modes and significantly enhanced anion binding ability. The ruthenium(II) complex [Ru(η⁶‐p‐cymene)(κS,S′,N‐ L³ ?H)]⁺ ( 2 b ) possesses juxtaposed four‐ and seven‐membered chelate rings and binds anions as both 1:1 and 2:1 host guest complexes. The pyridyl bis(thiourea) complex [Ru(η⁶‐p‐cymeme)(κS,S′,N_py‐ L⁴ )]²⁺ ( 4 ) binds anions in both 1:1 and 1:2 species, whereas the free ligand is ineffective because of intramolecular NH???N hydrogen bonding. Novel palladium(II) complexes with nine‐ and ten‐membered chelate rings are also reported.     

Organylthiochloroacetylenes: IV. Reaction with Thiourea

Alkylthiochloroacetylenes react with thiourea in acetone to form S-(alkylthioethynyl)isothiuronium chlorides and N-[1-(alkylthio)ethylidene]thioureas; phenylthiochloroacetylene reacts with thiourea to give 4-(phenylthio)-2-imino-1,3(3H)-thiazole hydrochloride.

Condensation of (aminomethyl)triethoxysilane with thiocarbamide in the presence of catalytic amounts of ammonium sulfate was used to synthesize N,N-bis(triethoxysilylmethyl)thiocarbamide. The latter was brought into oxidative hydrolytic polycondensation with H₂O₂ to obtain poly[N,N′-bis(silsesquioxanylmethyl)thiocarbamide S, S-dioxide] whose properties were compared with the properties of poly[N,N′-bis(silsesquioxanylpropyl)thiocarbamide S,S-dioxide]. Both polymers in highly acidic media rather strongly absorb Ag(I), while at pH 7 they reduce most absorbed Ag⁺ to the metal. Their reaction with potassium permanganate involves reduction of Mn⁷⁺ to Mn⁴⁺. The first polymer is a less effective sorbent and redox agent than the second.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 7, 2005, pp. 1154–1156.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Voronkov, Vlasova, Grigor’eva, Pozhidaev, Bol’shakova.     

Studies on mixed ligand complexes,part III. Cobalt(III) heterochelates derived fromN,N′-tetramethylenebis(salicylideneimine),N,N′-ethylenebis(acetylacetoneimine) and bidentate OO and ON donor ligands

Summary The hydroxoaquo complex, Co(OH)(H₂O)(salbn) [salbnH₂ =N,N-tetramethylcnebis(salicylideneimine)] reacts with bidentate OO and ON donor ligands in ethanol at 100° to give hetcrochelate complexes of the type Co(AA)(salbn) (where AA = bidentate monobasic ligands such as picolinic acid, acetylacetone, tropolone,N-benzoylphenylhydroxyl-amine, acetoacetanilide, salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxy-l-naphthaldehyde). Thecis-diammineN,N-ethylenebis(acetyl-acetoneimine)cobalt(lll)chloride reacts with bidentate ligands such as tropolonc to form the heterochelate complex Co(tropolone)(baen) [where baenH₂ =N,N-ethylenebis(acetyl-acetoneimine)]. These newly synthesized complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, i.r. and electronic spectroscopy, molecular weight, electrolytic conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Electronic spectra suggest that Co(tropolo ne)(baen) reacts with pyridine.

Synthesis and characterization of copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes with novel thiourea derivatives

A novel series of thiourea derivatives, namely, N,N-diphenyl-N-(4-phenyl-benzoyl)thiourea (HL¹), N,N-diphenyl-N-(4-chloro-benzoyl)thiourea (HL²) and N,N-di-n-propyl-N-(4-chloro-benzoyl)thiourea (HL³), and its metal complexes has been prepared and characterised by elemental analysis, i.r. spectroscopy, ¹H-n.m.r. spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The ligand coordinates to Ni^II, Cu^II and Co^II in a bidentate manner yielding essentially neutral complexes of the type cis-[ML₂]. N.m.r. spectra and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the presence of a distorted tetrahedral coordination ML₂ complex.     

Sulfonylimines of Polychloroaldehydes in Reaction with Thioamides

N-(2,2,2-Trichloroethylidene)- and N-(2-phenyl-2,2-dichloroethylidene)amides of aromatic sulfonic acids react with thioacetamide, thiourea, and N-acetylthiourea at equimolar reagents ratio to furnish N-(1-arenesulfonamido-2,2,2-trichloroethyl)- and N-(1-arenesulfonamido-2-phenyl-2,2-dichloroethyl)thioamides. The reaction with deficient amount of thiourea results in N,N'-bis(1-arenesulfonamido-2-polychloroethyl)-thiocarbamides.     

Synthesis of 2-amino-4-imino-4,5-dihydrothiazoles from N-sulfonyl-α-chloroamidines and thiourea

A number of new and interesting 2-amino-4-(N-substituted)imino-4,5-dihydrothiazoles were synthesized by reacting thiourea (or thiourea hydrochloride) with N-alkyl- or N,N-dialkyl-N′-p-toluenesulfonyl-α-chloroacetamidines, where the N,N-alkyl groups were ethyl, cyclohexyl, benzyl, β-phenethyl, (3,5-dimethyl-1-adamantyl)-methyl, as well as N,N-dimethyl- and N,N-pentamethylene. Reactions of N-alkyl-N-p-toluenesulfonyl-2-chloroacetamidines (substituents being N-ethyl, N-benzyl and N,N-dimethyl) with thiourea hydrochloride in hot 2-propanol furnished 2-amino-4-(p-toluenesulfonyl)imino-4,5-dihydrothiazole (in 51, 60 and 65% yields, respectively) and the corresponding amine hydrochloride. In hot acetone or butanone, the reactions of these N-sulfonyl-2-chloroacetamidines with excess thiourea provided 2-amino-4-N-(alkyl or N,N-dialkyl)imminium-4,5-dihydrothiazole chlorides in 25–80% yield. The by-product from these reactions was p-toluenesulfonamide. The structures of the products were established by chemical transformations and spectral methods (nmr and mass spectra).

Synthesis and Structure of N,N,N?,N?‐Tetraisobutyl‐N′,N″‐isophthaloylbis(thiourea) and Dimethanol‐bis(N,N,N?,N?‐tetraisobutyl‐N′,N″‐isophthaloylbis(thioureato))dicobalt(II) The synthesis and the crystal structure of the ligand N,N,N?,N?‐tetraisobutyl‐N′,N″‐isophthaloylbis(thiourea) and its Co^II‐complex are reported. The ligand co‐ordinates quadridentately forming a di‐bischelate. The donor atoms O and S are arranged in cis‐position around the central Co^II ions. In addition the co‐ordination geometry is determined by methanol molecules resulting in the co‐ordination number five. The complex crystallizes in the space group P1 (Z = 1) with two additional methanol molecules per formula unit. The free ligand crystallizes in the space group P1 (Z = 2) with one methanol molecule per formula unit. It shows the typical keto form of N‐acylthioureas with a protonated central N atom. The structures of both acylthiourea fragments come close to E,Z′‐configurations.     

Kinetics of chloride substitution in [Pt(bpma)Cl]+ and [Pt(gly-met-S,N,N)Cl] complexes by thiourea, nitrites, and iodides

Substitution of chloride in [PtCl(bpma)]⁺ and [PtCl(gly-met-S,N,N)], where bpma is bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine and gly-met-S,N,N is glycyl-l-methionine, was studied as a function of the entering nucleophile concentration and temperature. Reactions between the platinum(II) complexes and thiourea (TU), iodides (I^?), and nitrites(III) (NO ₂ ^? ) were carried out in aqueous solutions using conventional UV-VIS spectrophotometry. Suitable ionic conditions were reached by an addition of 0.1 M NaClO₄ and 0.01 M NaCl (to suppress hydrolysis). The second-order rate constants, k ₂, for the studied reactions with NO ₂ ^? varied between 0.036–0.038 M^?1 s^?1, and for the reactions with TU between 0.095–1.06 M^?1 s^?1, respectively. The reaction between TU and the [PtCl(bpma)]⁺ ion is ten times faster than that of the [PtCl(gly-met-S,N,N)] complex. An analysis of the activation parameters, ΔH ^≠ and ΔS ^≠, for the selected reactions clearly shows their associative nature.

Synthesis and magnetic properties of copper (II)-manganese (II) compounds with N,N′-ethylenedisalicylamidatocuprate(II)

By the reaction of sodium N,N′-ethylenedisalicylamidatocuprate ( I ) pentahydrate, Na₂[Cu(samen)]·5H₂O, with a manganese ( I ) salt and 2,2′-dipyridyl (bpy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), the binuclear metal complexes [Cu(samen) Mn(L)₂] (L ? bpy, phen) have been synthesized. Based on IR, elemental analyses and electronic spectra, the complexes are proposed to consist of a four-coordinated Cu( I ) in a distorted planar environment and Mn( I ) in a distorted octahedron. The complexes have been characterized with variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility (4.2—300 K) and the susceptibility data were least-squares fit to susceptibility equation derived from the spin Hamiltonian including single-ion zero-field interaction for Mn²⁺ ion, H?—2JS₁·S₂—DS, where D is the axial zero-field splitting parameter for the Mn(II) ion. The exchange integral, J, was found to be —34.6 and —28.8 cm^?1 for [Cu(samen)Mn(bpy)₂] and [Cu(samen)Mn(phen)₂] respectively. The weak antiferromagnetic spin-exchange interaction can be interpreted by considering σ-π exchange pathway.     

Palladium(II) complexes with 1-allyl-3-(2-pyridyl)thiourea: Synthesis and spectroscopic characterization

New Pd(II) complexes with 1-allyl-3-(2-pyridyl)thiourea (APTU) of the formulas [Pd(C₉H₁₁N₃S)Cl₂] (I) and [Pd(C₉H₁₁N₃S)₂]Cl₂ (II) were obtained and examined by UV-Vis, IR, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The conditions for the complexation reactions were optimized. The instability constants and molar absorption coefficients of these complexes were calculated. Comparison of the characteristic bands in the UV-Vis and IR spectra of the complexes and free APTU revealed that the ligand in both complexes is coordinated to the metal atom in the thione form in the bidentate chelating mode through the S atom of the thiourea group and the pyridine N atom. In the UV-Vis spectra of the complexes, the charge transfer bands (π → π* Py) and n → π* (C=N_Py), (C=S) experience hypsochromic shifts by 450–470 cm⁻¹ caused by the coordination of APTU to the metal ion, which gives rise to ligand-metal charge-transfer bands (C=N_Py → Pd, n → π* (C=S)) and (SPd). The protons in the 6-, 4-, and 3-positions of the pyridine ring and the thiourea NH proton in the chelate ring are most sensitive to the complexation.     

Synthesis,structural and chemosensitivity studies of arene d6 metal complexes having N‐phenyl‐N´‐(pyridyl/pyrimidyl)thiourea derivatives

The d⁶ metal complexes of thiourea derivatives were synthesized to investigate its cytotoxicity. Treatment of various N‐phenyl‐N´ pyridyl/pyrimidyl thiourea ligands with half‐sandwich d⁶ metal precursors yielded a series of cationic complexes. Reactions of ligand (L1‐L3) with [(p‐cymene)RuCl₂]₂ and [Cp*MCl₂]₂ (M = Rh/Ir) led to the formation of a series of cationic complexes bearing general formula [(arene)M(L1)к²_(N,S)Cl]⁺, [(arene)M(L2)к²_(N,S)Cl]⁺ and [(arene)M(L3)к²_(N,S)Cl]⁺ [arene = p‐cymene, M = Ru ( 1 , 4 , 7 ); Cp*, M = Rh ( 2 , 5 , 8 ); Cp*, Ir ( 3 , 6 , 9 )]. These compounds were isolated as their chloride salts. X‐ray crystallographic studies of the complexes revealed the coordination of the ligands to the metal in a bidentate chelating N,S‐ manner. Further the cytotoxicity studies of the thiourea derivatives and its complexes evaluated against HCT‐116 (human colorectal cancer), MIA‐PaCa‐2 (human pancreatic cancer) and ARPE‐19 (non‐cancer retinal epithelium) cancer cell lines showed that the thiourea ligands displayed no activity. Upon complexation however, the metal compounds possesses cytotoxicity and whilst potency is less than cisplatin, several complexes exhibited greater selectivity for HCT‐116 or MIA‐PaCa‐2 cells compared to ARPE‐19 cells than cisplatin in vitro. Rhodium complexes of thiourea derivatives were found to be more potent as compared to ruthenium and iridium complexes.

Tetrasulfurtetranitride, S₄N₄ reacts with (2-pyridylamino)-diphenylphosphine in MeCN at room temperature to form the cyclotrithiazene (NC₅H₄NH)-Ph₂PN S₃N₃ ( 1 ) in good yield. By contrast, the cyclophosphathiazenes Ph₂PS₂N₃ ( 2 ) and 1,5(Ph₂P)₂S₂N₄ ( 3 ) are isolated from the same reaction mixture under reflux conditions. In solution, compound 1 is found to be transformed into 2 . The reaction of S₄N₄ with (2-pyridylamino)phenyl(dicyclohexylamino)phosphine in MeCN at room temperature affords Ph(DCA)PS₂N₃ ( 4 ) (DCA = dicylohexylamino) as the only reaction product. This on treatment with norbornadiene produces the addition product Ph(DCA)PS₂N₃·C₇H₈ ( 5 ). The structure of 4 has been established by X-ray diffraction. Its PSN ring adopts a skew boat conformation with S N bond lengths varying from 1.574(4) to 1.606(4) Å. The mean value of the endocyclic P N bonds amounts to 1.618(3) Å.     

MIXED DINUCLEAR Co(II) COMPLEXES WITH N,N′,N″,N″ -TETRAKIS-(2-PYRIDYLMETHYL)-l, 4, 8, 11-TETRAAZACYCLOTETRADECANE AND α - AND β-AMINOCARBOXYLATO LIGANDS

Abstract

Four new mixed complexes of Co(II) with N,N′ N″,N′″-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)-1, 4, 8, 11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (tpmc) and bridged α- or β-aminocarboxylato ligands of general formula [Co₂(Y)tpmc](C1O₄)₃ zH₂O where Y = glycinato, S-alaninato, S-aminobutyrato, β-aminobutyrato ion, and z = 0, 0.5 or 1 were isolated. The complexes were characterised by elemental analysis, electronic and IR spectroscopy, magnetic measurements and cyclic voltam-metry. A structure with μ-O, O′-coordination of the aminocarboxylato ligand, and exo coordination of Co(II) ions and tpmc is proposed. The complexes exhibit different electrochemical activities; glycinato and S-alaninato complexes are electrochemically active, whereas S-aminobutyrato and β-aminobutyrato complexes are electrochemically inactive under the given conditions.
