Synthesis and physicochemical properties of the Al(III), Ga(III) and In(III) complexes with chrysin

New solid compounds of Al(III), Ga(III) and In(III) with chrysin were obtained. Their composition and some physicochemical properties were studied by thermogravimetric analysis, UV-vis, infrared and solid state ¹³C NMR spectroscopies. Upon heating the hydrated compounds M(C₁₅H₉O₄)₃·nH₂O decomposed to the oxides. The structure of the compounds was elucidated on the basis of obtained results.     

Tetrakis(thiadiazole)porphyrazines. 8. Singlet oxygen production, fluorescence response and liposomal incorporation of tetrakis(thiadiazole)porphyrazine macrocycles [TTDPzM] (M = Mg(II)(H2O), Zn(II), Al(III)Cl, Ga(III)Cl, Cd(II), Cu(II), 2H(I))

The photoactivity for the generation of singlet oxygen, (1)O(2), the key cytotoxic agent in the anticancer treatment known as photodynamic therapy (PDT), and the fluorescence response of the highly electron-deficient tetrakis(thiadiazole)porphyrazines of formula [TTDPzM] (M = Mg(II)(H(2)O), Zn(II), Al(III)Cl, Ga(III)Cl, Cd(II), Cu(II), 2H(I)) were examined (c ? 10(-5) M) in dimethylformamide (DMF) and/or in DMF preacidified with HCl (DMF/HCl; [HCl] = 1-4 × 10(-4) M). The singlet oxygen quantum yield (Φ(Δ)) of all the compounds was determined by using a widely employed procedure based on the selective oxidation of the 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF), modified in part as reported. The list of the Φ(Δ) values indicates excellent photosensitizing properties for the series of compounds carrying "closed shell" metal ions, with values measured in DMF/HCl respectful of the "heavy atom effect" for the first four lighter centers, increasing in the order Mg(II) < Al(III) < Zn(II) < Ga(III). Data of Φ(Δ) concerning the unmetalated species [TTDPzH(2)], present in solution in the form of the corresponding anion [TTDPz](2-), and the Cd(II) and Cu(II) complexes are also presented and discussed. Extensive discussion is also developed on the fluorescence quantum yield values Φ(F), with data on the Mg(II) and Al(III) compounds in DMF/HCl (0.44 and 0.53, respectively) indicative of promising perspectives for applications in fluorescence imaging techniques. The Φ(F) data of the studied porphyrazine series, Φ(F)(Pz), correlate linearly with those of the homologous phthalocyaninato complexes, Φ(F)(Pc), suggesting a closely similar behaviour between the two classes of compounds. The incorporation of [TTDPzZn] into liposomes was successfully achieved following the detergent depletion method (DDM) from a mixed micellar solution by means of gel-filtration. Retention of [TTDPzZn] (~40%) in its photoactive monomeric form into liposomes is proved by absorption and fluorescence spectra, this proposing the Zn(II) complex as a promising candidate for use in PDT.     

Acid–Basic Properties of Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III) Complexes with Octaphenyltetraazaporphine

Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III) complexes with octaphenyltetraazaporphine and halide axial ligands of the composition [(X)MTAP] (X = F, Cl, Br) and In(III) complexes with bidentate ligands of the composition [(Y)InTAP] (Y = nitrite (NO₂) and 2,3-naphthodiolate (NpO₂)) were synthesized. The acid–basic properties of the complexes were studied in the proton-donor media and the concentration stability constants of the acidic forms obtained at the first protonation stage were determined. The effect of the nature of a metal and extra ligand on the basic properties of meso-nitrogen atom in macrocyclic ligand was discussed.     

Exchange and magnetic dipole-dipole interactions in bi- and triradical complexes of Al(III), Ga(III), In(III), and Sn(IV) witho-semiquinones. PM3 calculation

Semiempirical (PM3 with CI) calculations of exchange interactions for the triradical complexes of Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III) and the biradical complex of Sn (IV) with o-semiquinones are carried out. The results are in agreement with both qualitative theoretical assumptions and experimental data. The calculations indicate that the superexchange via the unoccupied porbitals of the central metal ion predominantly determines the multiplicity of the ground states of the complexes. Zero-field splitting constants D are calculated; they also agree well with experimental data. Deceased.

Complexation of a tripodal amine-catechol ligand tris((2,3-dihydroxybenzylamino)ethyl)amine towards Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III)

Abstract  

The complexation of a tripodal amine-catechol ligand tris((2,3-dihydroxybenzylamino)ethyl)amine (TRENCAT, L) with group-13 metal ions, viz., Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III), were investigated by means of potentiometric titrations and spectrophotometric measurements in an aqueous medium of 0.1 M KCl at 25 ± 1 °C. The ligand shows the potential to form various monomeric complexes of the types MLH₃, MLH₂, MLH, and ML. At low pH, the ligand is coordinated through three more acidic ortho-catecholic O-atoms to give MLH₃ species. With the rise in pH, the species MLH₃ releases three protons in steps from the meta-catecholic O-atoms to form MLH₂, MLH, and ML. The order of stability Ga(III) > Al(III) > In(III) for the species MLH₃ and MLH₂ is changed into Al(III) > Ga(III) > In(III) for the species MLH and ML. The coordination modes, binding ability, selectivity, and the change in stability order were explained with the help of experimental evidence, molecular modeling calculations, and available literature.

Synthesis,structure, and optical properties of lanthanum(III), cerium(III), praseodymium(III), and nickel(II) heterometallic complexes with glycine

New cluster complexes of lanthanides(III) and nickel(II) [Ln{Ni(Gly)₂}₆]³⁺[Ln(NO₃)₆]^3– have been synthesized, where Ln = La (I), Ce (II), and Pr (III); and Gly is glycinate. The structures of compounds I–III are determined by X-ray diffraction. The icosahedral cavity in the complex cation, where the lanthanide ion resides, has a fixed size independent of the nature of the central Ln(III) ion. In the complex anion, on the contrary, the Ln–O distances naturally decrease from La(III) to Pr(III). The optical properties of cationanion complexes I–III are studied. Based on the assignment in the electronic absorption spectra of the complexes, it is shown that the absorption bands are caused by d–d electronic transitions.     

Large M4L4 (M = Al(III), Ga(III), In(III), Ti(IV)) tetrahedral coordination cages: an extension of symmetry-based design

As an extension to a rational design for the formation of self-assembled coordination cages, the syntheses for very large M4L4 tetrahedra based on a hexadentate 3-fold symmetric ligand (1,3,5-tris(4'-(2' ',3' '-dihydroxybenzamido)phenyl)benzene (H6L2)) are described. Four tetrahedral M4L2(4) assemblies (M = Al(III), Ga(III), In(III), Ti(IV)), with cavity sizes of around 450 A3, have been characterized by elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy, and high-resolution electrospray mass spectrometry. Differences in chiral resolution and dynamic behavior of host-guest interactions with previously reported tetrahedral M4L(N)6 and M4L1(4) architectures are highlighted for the ligands 1,5-bis(2',3'-dihydroxybenzamido)naphthalene (H4L(N)) and 1,3,5-tris(2',3'-dihydroxybenzamido)benzene (H6L1). An even larger 3-fold symmetric ligand, 1,3,5-tris(4'-(2' ',3' '-dihydroxybenzamido)-1',1' '-biphenyl)benzene (H6L3) has been prepared but, due to increased flexibility and deviation from the intended 3-fold symmetry, does not undergo self-assembly to form the M4L3(4) structure.     

Detection of Al(III) and Ga(III) complexes with morin by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.

The Al(III) and Ga(III) complexes formed by morin (M) in aqueous solution were investigated by means of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). In the full scan mass spectra, Al:M showed 1:2 and 2:3 stoichiometric ratios. When (S)-N-acetylserine methyl ester (Ser), as a partial mimic of the serine residue in silk, was added to Al:M and Ga:M complexes in aqueous solution, the mass spectra of Ser:Al:M showed 1:1:1 and 1:1:2 stoichiometric ratios. The patterns of the mass spectra of Ga:M and Ser:Ga:M complexes were similar to those for the corresponding Al(III) complexes. Calculated heats of formation of potential structures of the complexes, with and without bound water, were obtained using semiempirical PM3 calculations.     

Study of the thermal behavior of Al(III) and In(III)-diclofenac complexes in solid state

The Al and In-diclofenac compounds were prepared. Thermogravimetry (TG) and X-ray diffraction powder patterns were used to characterize these compounds. Details concerning the dehydration and thermal decomposition as well as data of kinetic parameters have been described here. The kinetic studies of these stages were evaluated from several heating rates with mass sample of 2 and 5 mg in open crucibles under nitrogen atmosphere. The results of the present study improve the knowledge on these compounds including their dehydration and thermal stability. The obtained data leads to a dependence on the sample mass, which results in two kinetic behavior patterns.     

Aluminum(III), gallium(III), and indium(III) 4-hydroxyacridinato complexes

4-Hydroxyacridine (HAcr) is an O,N-chelating ligand whose coordination chemistry toward group 13 M(III) ions has received little attention. The molecular structure of HAcr consists of a 2,3-disubstituted-8-hydroxyquinoline; thus, in order to compare 8-hydroxyquinoline (HQ), 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline (HMeQ′), and 2,3-disubstituted-8-hydroxyquinoline (HAcr) for steric and/or electronic influence, HAcr chelating ability toward the Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III) triad has been investigated. Irrespective of the nature of M(III), only complexes containing two equivalents of deprotonated HAcr are obtained. This article describes the synthesis and characterization of different series of bis-chelated pentacoordinated (Acr)₂MY (M = Al, Ga, In; Y = Cl, Br, I, NCS, N₃) or (Acr)₂MZ (M = Ga or In; HZ = C₆H₅OH, C₆H₁₃OC₆H₄OH, C₆H₅COOH, or C₆H₁₃OC₆H₄COOH) six-coordinate neutral (Acr)₂In(acac) (H(acac) =acetylacetone), or ionic [(Acr)₂In(N,N)][CF₃SO₃] (N,N = 2,2′-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline) complexes. These results significantly contribute to elucidating the complexation capability of HAcr.     

Luminescent cyclometalated Rh(III), Ir(III), and (DIP)2Ru(II) complexes with carboxylated bipyridyl ligands: synthesis, X-ray molecular structure, and photophysical properties

Luminescent cyclometalated rhodium(III) and iridium(III) complexes of the general formula [M(ppy) 2(N (wedge)N)][PF 6], with N (wedge)N = Hcmbpy = 4-carboxy-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine and M = Rh ( 1), Ir ( 2) and N (wedge)N = H 2dcbpy = 4,4'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridine and M = Rh ( 3), Ir ( 4), were prepared in high yields and fully characterized. The X-ray molecular structure of the monocarboxylic iridium complex [Ir(ppy) 2(Hcmbpy)][PF 6] ( 2) was also determined. The photophysical properties of these compounds were studied and showed that the photoluminescence of rhodium complexes 1 and 3 and iridium complexes 2 and 4 originates from intraligand charge-transfer (ILCT) and metal-to-ligand charge-transfer/ligand-centered MLCT/LC excited states, respectively. For comparison purposes, the mono- and dicarboxylic acid ruthenium complexes [Ru(DIP) 2(Hcmbpy)][Cl] 2 ( 5) and [Ru(DIP) 2(H 2dcbpy)][Cl] 2 ( 6), where DIP = 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline, were also prepared, whose emission is MLCT in nature. Comparison of the photophysical behavior of these rhodium(III), iridium(III), and ruthenium(II) complexes reveals the influence of the carboxylic groups that affect in different ways the ILCT, MLCT, and LC states.     

Synthesis,spectral, antimicrobial,and thermal properties of Ce(III), Gd(III), Nd(III), Tb(III), and Er(III) gliclazide complexes

The complexation between the lanthanide metal ions Ce(III), Gd(III), Nd(III), Tb(III), and Er(III) and gliclazide produced 1 : 1 molar ratio metal: gliclazide (Glz) complexes coordinated in a monodentate fashion via the OH group and having the general formulas [M(Glz)Cl₃(H₂O)]·xH₂O (M = Ce, Gd, Nd and x = 1, 3, 4, respectively) and [M(Glz)(H₂O)₄]Cl₃·yH₂O (M = Tb, Er and y = 1, 2, respectively). The structure of the synthesized lanthanide gliclazide complexes was assigned by IR, ¹HNMR, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Thermal analysis and kinetic and thermodynamic parameters gave evidence for the thermal stability of the Glz complexes. The latter showed a significant antimicrobial effect against some bacteria and fungi.     

Odd-numbered Fe(III) complexes: synthesis, molecular structure, reactivity, and magnetic properties

Three isostructural disklike heptanuclear FeIII compounds of the general formula [FeIII7(mu3-O)3(L)3(mu-O2CCMe3)6(eta1-O2CCMe3)3(H2O)3], where L represents a di- or triethanolamine moiety, display a three-blade propeller topology, with the central Fe atom representing the axle or axis of the propeller. This motif corresponds to the theoretical model of a frustrated Heisenberg star, which is one of the very few solvable models in the area of frustrated quantum-spin systems and can, furthermore, be converted to an octanuclear cage for the case where L is triethanolamine to give [FeIII8(mu4O)3(mu4-tea)(teaH)3(O2CCMe3)6(N3)3].1/2MeCN.1/2H2O or [FeIII8(mu4O)3(mu4-tea)(teaH)3(O2CCMe3)6(SCN)3].2MeCN when treated with excess NaN3 or NH4SCN, respectively. The core structure is formally derived from that of the heptanuclear compounds by the replacement of the three aqua ligands by an {Fe(tea)} moiety, so that the 3-fold axis of the propeller is now defined by two central FeIII atoms. Magnetic studies on two of the heptanulcear compounds established unequivocally S = 5/2 spin ground state for these complexes, consistent with overall antiferromagnetic interactions between the constituent FeIII ions.     

Absorption and emission properties of 5-phenyl tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato) M(III) complexes (M = Al,Ga, In) and correlations with molecular electrostatic potential

Substituent effect for a series of 5-phenyl tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato) M(III) complexes (Mq3) of aluminum, gallium, and indium are investigated using density functional theory (DFT) for the ground state properties and the time-dependent version of DFT (TDDFT) for their absorption and emission properties. A comparison between the ground state energy of mer and fac isomers of all the complexes revealed that the mer configuration is always more stable than fac. The substituent effect is significantly reflected at the fluorescence maximum (λ_F) values whereas the effect is moderate at the absorption maximum (λ_abs) values. The molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) at the metal center (V_M) and the most electron rich region indicated by MESP minimum (V_min), located at the oxygen of phenoxide ring exhibit excellent correlations with the λ_F and Stokes shift (λ_F−λ_abs) values. The study suggests the use of Stokes shift as an experimental quantity to measure the excited state substituent effect while the V_min or V_M emerge as theoretical quantities to measure the same.

The synthesis, structure and physical properties of lanthanide(III) complexes with nicotinic acid

This article reports the synthesis of novel, rare-earth coordination complexes with nicotinic acid. Three compounds with the general formula Ln₂[(C₅H₄NCOO)₆(H₂O)₄] (Ln = Yb, 1; Ln = Gd, 2; Ln = Nd, 3) were prepared from relatively cheap and readily available reactants. Their compositions and structure were characterized by IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The magnetic and thermogravimetric properties were also studied. The complexes consist of centrosymetric, dimeric molecules having all six nicotinato ligands coordinated with the central atom in the bidentate mode. The coordination environment of the Ln³⁺ for all three compounds is 8. Here we describe the crystal structure of Yb and Gd complexes with nicotinic acid.
