Experimental studies on the trans-influence of boryl ligands in square-planar platinum(II) complexes

A series of platinum(II) boryl complexes of general formula trans-[(Cy(3)P)2Pt(Br)(BX2)], including the rare dibromoboryl species trans-[(Cy(3)P)2Pt(Br)(BBr2)], were synthesized by oxidative addition of the B-Br bond of a number of bromoboranes to [Pt(PCy3)2]. X-ray diffraction studies were performed on several such compounds. Comparison of the Pt--Br bond lengths allowed an empirical assessment of the trans-influence of different boryl ligands. A trans-influence scale was thus deduced and the results were compared with those previously computed for compounds of the type trans-[(Me(3)P)2Pt(Cl)(BX2)].     

The role of 8-quinolinyl moieties in tuning the reactivity of palladium(II) complexes: a kinetic and mechanistic study

The rate and mechanism of chloride substitution from Pd(II) complexes, chlorobis-(2-pyridylmethyl)aminepalladium(II), 1, chloro-8-[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]quinolinepalladium(II), 2, chloro-N-(2-pyridinylmethylene)-8-quinolinaminepalladium(II), 3, and chlorobis(8-quinolinyl)aminepalladium(II), 4, are reported. The labile chloride was substituted from the complexes by thiourea nucleophiles viz, thiourea (Tu), N,N′-dimethylthiourea (Dmtu) and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylthiourea (Tmtu). The reactions were monitored under pseudo-first-order conditions in methanol using stopped-flow spectrophotometry as a function of concentration and temperature. All the reactions obeyed the rate law k_obs = k₂[Nu] following the order 1 > 3 > 2 > 4 with 4 exhibiting the slowest rate of substitution due to the stronger σ-donor effect of 8-quinolyl moiety of the coordinated ligand, which makes the Pd center more electron-rich. This slows the nucleophilic attack by the nucleophiles. The values of the thermodynamic parameters (ΔH^# and ΔS^#) support an associative substitution mechanism. The trends in the DFT calculated data support the experimentally observed order of the reactivity of the complexes.

Advances on supramolecular assembly of cyclometalated platinum(Ⅱ) complexes

Organoplatinum(Ⅱ) compounds have received enormous attention over the past decades due to their square-planar geometry as well as intriguing photo-physical properties.Self-assembly has emerged as an excellent approach to create well-ordered supramolecular architectures with tunable properties,which underpin the role of solvent-directed approach for the design of functional materials.In this minireview,the recent advances on supramolecular self-assembly of cyclometalated platinum(Ⅱ) complexes have been discussed.During the self-assembly process,non-covalent Pt-Pt and π-π interactions play crucial roles in controlling the structures and functions of the resulting assemblies.     

双马来腈二亚胺合铂与DNA的作用

Preparation of Palladium(II) and Platinum(II) Phosphine Complexes Promoted by Phase-Transfer Catalysts

The synthesis of M(PR₃)₂Cl₂ (M = Pd and Pt, R = alkyl or aryl) front K₂MCl₄ (in H₂O) and PR₃ (in CH₂Cl₂) was promoted by the addition of phase-transfer catalysts (PTC). The greater the amount of PTC used, the more quickly the reaction completed. ³¹P NMR spectra of some M(PR₃)₂Cl₂ in the presence of free PR₃ were measured; these NMR resulls were used to explain problems encountered during the preparations.     

X-ray crystal structures of novel platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes of dialkyl phosphonated phosphines

Two diethyl phosphonated phosphine ligands of formula Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PO₃Et₂ (ligand L) and Ph₂P(4-C₆H₄PO₃Et₂) (ligand L′) were used to prepare different complexes of platinum(II) (1, cis-PtCl₂L₂; 2, trans-PtCl₂L₂·H₂O; 3A and 3B, cis- and trans-PtCl₂L′₂) and palladium(II) (4, [PdCl₂L]₂; 5, trans-PdCl₂L₂·H₂O; 6, trans-PdCl₂L′₂·CH₂Cl₂). The single-crystal X-ray structure analyses of complexes 1, 2, 4-6 indicate that complexation involved only the phosphine end, whereas the strong polarization of the PO bond was highlighted by the formation of hydrogen bonds with a water molecule in 2 and 5, and with a dichloromethane molecule in 6, with an exceptionally short CH?O hydrogen bond length (C?O separation 3.094(3) Å).     

The performance of different density functional methods in the calculation of molecular structures and vibrational spectra of platinum(II) antitumor drugs: cisplatin and carboplatin

A comparison of eight density functional models for predicting the molecular structures, vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities, and Raman scattering activities of platinum(II) antitumor drugs, cisplatin and carboplatin, is reported. Methods examined include the pure density functional protocols (G96LYP, G96PW91, modified mPWPW and original PW91PW91), one‐parameter hybrid approaches (mPW1PW and mPW1LYP), and three‐parameter hybrid models (B3LYP and B3PW91), as well as the HF and MP2 levels of theory. Different effective core potentials (ECPs) and several basis sets are considered. The theoretical results are discussed and compared with the experimental data. It is remarkable that the mPW1PW protocol introduced by Adamo and Barone [J Chem Phys 1998, 108, 664], is clearly superior to all the remaining density functional methods (including B3LYP). The geometry and vibrational frequencies of cisplatin and carboplatin calculated with the mPW1PW method, and the ECP of Hay and Wadt (LanL2DZ basis set) are in better agreement with experiment than those obtained with the MP2 method. The use of more elaborated ECP and the enlargements of basis sets do not significantly improve the results. A clear‐cut assignments of the platinum‐ligand vibrations in cisplatin and carboplatin are presented. It is concluded that mPW1PW is the new reliable method, which can be used in predicting molecular structures and vibrational spectra of large coordination compounds containing platinum(II). © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Trans-philicity (trans-influence/trans-effect) ladders for square planar platinum(II) complexes constructed by 35Cl NMR probe

The unified term of trans-philicity is proposed to cover the trans-effect/trans-influence concepts. NMR trans-philicity ladders are built for a broad series of square planar trans-Pt(NH₃)₂(Cl)L and trans-Pt(CO)₂(Cl)L complexes employing ³⁵Cl NMR probe and quantified by calculation of NMR trans-philicity indicators. The trans-philicity is linearly correlated with the ligand electronic P_L constant, a measure of the net donor power of the ligand. The nature of cis-ligands does not affect trans-philicity ladders but strongly affects trans-philicity strength. Solvent has significant effect on the σ_calcd ³⁵Cl shielding constants, with the polar Dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent inducing downfield shifts relative to σ_calcd ³⁵Cl with nonpolar benzene solvent. Good correlations between σ_calcd ³⁵Cl shielding constants and the estimated R(Pt-Cl) bond distances demonstrate the relation of trans-philicity with trans-influence and trans-effect phenomena and put the grounds for the establishment of the new concept of trans-philicity in the realm of square planar Pt(II) and other transition metal complexes. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Self-assembled vesicles from amphiphilic platinum(II) terpyridyl complex in water

A new cationic amphiphile (1) functionalised with platinum(II) terpyridyl unit was designed and synthesised to realize self-assembly in water. Using UV–vis and emission spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering and time-correlated single-photon counting technique, we have demonstrated that amphiphile 1 can self-assemble into stable vesicular aggregates upon direct dissolution in water, which is rarely observed in the literature.     

1-Methyl-4-ferrocenylmethyl-3,5-diphenylpyrazole: A versatile ligand for palladium(II) and platinum(II)

The syntheses and characterization of two novel ferrocene derivatives containing 3,5-diphenylpyrazole units of general formula [1-R-3,5-Ph₂-(C₃N₂)-CH₂-Fc] {Fc = (η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(η⁵-C₅H₄) and R = H (2) or Me (3)} together with a study of their reactivity with palladium(II) and platinum(II) salts or complexes under different experimental conditions is described. These studies have allowed us to isolate and characterize trans-[Pd{1-Me-3,5-Ph₂-(C₃N₂)-CH₂-Fc]}₂Cl₂] (4a) and three different types of heterodimetallic complexes: cis-[M{1-Me-3,5-Ph₂-(C₃N₂)-CH₂-Fc]}Cl₂(dmso)] {M = Pd (5a) or Pt (5b)}, the cyclometallated products [M{κ²-C,N-[3-(C₆H₄)-1-Me-5-Ph-(C₃N₂)]-CH₂-Fc}Cl(L)] with L = PPh₃ and M = Pd (6a) or Pt (6b) or L = dmso and M = Pt (8b) and the trans-isomer of [Pt{1-Me-3,5-Ph₂-(C₃N₂)-CH₂-Fc]}Cl₂(dmso)] (7b). In compounds 4a, 5a, 5b and 7b, the ligand behaves as a neutral N-donor group; while in 6a, 6b and 8b it acts as a bidentate [C(sp²,phenyl),N(pyrazole)]⁻ group. A comparative study of the spectroscopic properties of the compounds, based on NMR, IR and UV-Visible experiments, is also reported.

Density functional computations of alkynylation of ethanimine catalyzed by chiral zinc(II)‐complexes

The alkynylation of ethanimine catalyzed by chiral zinc(II)‐complexes was studied by means of the density functional theory (DFT). All the intermediates and transition states were optimized completely at the B3LYP/6‐31G(d,p) level. Calculation results confirm that the alkynylation of ethanimine is exothermic and the total released energy is about ?13 kJ/mol. The formation of the catalyst–alkynyl complexes M4 is the rate‐determining step for this alkynylation, and the formation of the catalyst–amine complexes M5 is the chirality‐limiting step for this alkynylation. The transition states for the chirality‐limiting step have a H? O? Zn? C? C? N six‐membered ring. The dominant products predicted theoretically for this alkynylation are, respectively, S‐amine for ethanimine anti and R‐amine for ethanimine syn . © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A density functional study of S(N)2 substitution at square-planar platinum(II) complexes

The energetics and reaction path in a series of S(N)2 substitution reactions at square-planar Pt(II) complexes have been studied by the application of density functional theory (DFT). Calculated free energies show excellent correlation with their experimental counterparts, while the enthalpic and entropic contributions individually indicate the presence of weak intermolecular interactions not accounted for in the present model. The nature of the leaving ligand has been shown to be much more significant in determining the activation barrier than that of the entering ligand; it is inferred (and confirmed by analysis of individual bond energies) that the reaction is driven by the dissociation of the leaving ligand, with the entering ligand playing a more passive role. Analysis of the intrinsic reaction coordinate indicates, further, that the trans ligand plays an unexpectedly dynamic role in stabilizing the transition state due to competition between stabilization and the steric effects of the entering and leaving ligands. The cis ligands, by contrast, are shown to move only slightly through the course of the reaction.     

Synthesis, structure, and biological activity of mixed-ligand platinum(II) complexes with aminonitroxides

Mixed-ligand platinum complexescis-Pt^II(R⁶NH₂)(NH₃)X₂ andcis-Pt^II(R⁵NH₂)(NH₃)X₂ (R⁶ is 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl-1-oxyl and R⁵ is 2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-pyrrolidinyl-1-oxyl) were synthesized by either the reaction of aminonitroxides RNH₂ with Na[Pt^II(NH₃)Cl₂I] generatedin situ (for X₂=ClI) or by replacement of the iodo-chloro ligands incis-Pt¹¹(RNH₂)(NH₃)ClI by dichloro and oxalato ligands. The complexes obtained were characterized by elemental analysis and by IR, UV, and ESR spectra. Forcis-Pt¹¹(R⁵NH₂)(NH₃)Cl₂, crystal and molecular structures were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Cisplatin accelerates autooxidation of methyl linoleate and the platinum nitroxide complexes synthesized exhibit antioxidant properties. The rate of isolated DNA binding with the new complexes is almost as high as that for cisplatin.cis-Pt¹¹(R⁶NH₂)(NH₃)Cl₂ exhibits the highest antitumor activity. The high antitumor activity of platinum nitroxide complexes shows that the possible “radical component” is not a crucial factor in the cytotoxic action of cisplatin.
