1-(2′-Pyridylazo)-2-naphtholate complexes of ruthenium: Synthesis,characterization, and DNA binding properties

Reaction of 1-(2′-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (Hpan) with [Ru(dmso)₄Cl₂] (dmso = dimethylsulfoxide), [Ru(trpy)Cl₃] (trpy = 2,2′,2″-terpyridine), [Ru(bpy)Cl₃] (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) and [Ru(PPh₃)₃Cl₂] in refluxing ethanol in the presence of a base (NEt₃) affords, respectively, the [Ru(pan)₂], [Ru(trpy)(pan)]⁺ (isolated as perchlorate salt), [Ru(bpy)(pan)Cl] and [Ru(PPh₃)₂(pan)Cl] complexes. Structures of these four complexes have been determined by X-ray crystallography. In each of these complexes, the pan ligand is coordinated to the metal center as a monoanionic tridentate N,N,O-donor. Reaction of the [Ru(bpy)(pan)Cl] complex with pyridine (py) and 4-picoline (pic) in the presence of silver ion has yielded the [Ru(bpy)(pan)(py)]⁺ and [Ru(bpy)(pan)(pic)]⁺ complexes (isolated as perchlorate salts), respectively. All the complexes are diamagnetic (low-spin d⁶, S = 0) and show characteristic ¹H NMR signals and intense MLCT transitions in the visible region. Cyclic voltammetry on all the complexes shows a Ru(II)–Ru(III) oxidation on the positive side of SCE. Except in the [Ru(pan)₂] complex, a second oxidative response has been observed in the other five complexes. Reductions of the coordinated ligands have also been observed on the negative side of SCE. The [Ru(trpy)(pan)]ClO₄, [Ru(bpy)(pan)(py)]ClO₄ and [Ru(bpy)(pan)(pic)]ClO₄ complexes have been observed to bind to DNA, but they have not been able to cleave super-coiled DNA on UV irradiation.

Synthesis,crystal structures and spectroscopic studies of calcium(II) succinamate(-1) complexes

The reaction of succinamic acid (H₂sucm) with Ca(NO₃)₂·4H₂O yielded compounds [Ca(Hsucm)(NO₃)(H₂O)]_n (1) and [Ca(Hsucm)₂]_n (2). The succinamate(-1) ligand presents two new ligation modes and coordinates through the two carboxylato and the amide O-atoms, thus bridging three Ca^II ions which assemble into zig-zag 1D chains in 1 and 2D networks in 2. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions in the crystal structures of 1 and 2 result in overall 3D framework structures. Both compounds have been characterized by IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy, and their thermal decomposition was monitored by TG/DTG and DSC measurements. The structural comparison of 1 and 2 with known lanthanide(III) succinamate(-1) complexes reveals differences in the coordination mode of the ligand and in the coordination number of the metal ions; the biological relevance of these differences is discussed.

Synthesis,crystal structures and spectroscopic studies of praseodymium(III) malonate complexes

Reactions of malonic acid (H₂mal) with PrCl₃·6H₂O afforded the known complex [Pr₂(mal)₃(H₂O)₆]_n (1), and compounds [Pr₂(mal)₃(H₂O)₆]_n·2nH₂O (2·2nH₂O), [PrCl(mal)(H₂O)₃]_n·0.5nH₂O (3·0.5nH₂O) and [Pr(mal)(Hmal)(H₂O)₃]_n·nH₂O (4·nH₂O) using various reaction ratios, reaction media (H₂O, MeOH) and pH values. Analogous reactions with CeCl₃·7H₂O afforded compounds [Ce₂(mal)₃(H₂O)₆]_n (5), [CeCl(mal)(H₂O)₃]_n·nH₂O (6·nH₂O) and [Ce(mal)(Hmal)(H₂O)₃]_n·nH₂O (7·nH₂O). Compounds 2·2nH₂O and 3·0.5nH₂O were characterized by X-ray crystallography, and 4–7 by microanalytical and spectroscopic data. The malonate(-2) ligand adopts three different coordination modes in the structures of 1–3, i.e., the μ₂-κO:κO′:κO″ and the μ₄-κ²O:κO′:κ²O″:κO? in 1 and 2 leading to a 3D network structure, and the μ₃-κ²O:κO′:κ²O″:κO? in 3 promoting an 1D structure. The thermal decomposition of 1 and 3·0.5nH₂O was monitored by TG/DTA and TG/DTG measurements. The structural features of 1–3 are discussed in terms of known malonato(-2) Ln^III and Ca^II complexes. The bioinorganic chemistry relevance of our results is discussed.     

Rhodium(III) and iridium(III) complexes of thioarylazoimidazoles: Synthesis,structure, spectral characterization,electrochemistry and DFT calculation

Mononuclear gallium(III) complexes based on salicylaldoximes: Synthesis,structure and spectroscopic characterization

The crystal structures of 1 and 2 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Both complexes are mononuclear with the Ga(III) atoms being in octahedral environments surrounded by two bidentate chelate R-saoH⁻ and one bidentate chelate acac⁻ ligands. A [Ga(acac)₃] moiety has co-crystallized along with the methylsalicylaldoximato complex. Characteristic IR as well as NMR data are discussed in terms of the nature of bonding in the structures of the two complexes. ¹H and ¹³C NMR data in CDCl₃ indicate that the salicylaldoximato complexes isomerize in solution.     

Rotamerisation and intramolecular proton transfer of 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)oxazole, 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)imidazole and 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)thiazole: a theoretical study

Semi-empirical (AM1-SCI) calculations have been performed on 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)oxazole (HPO), 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)imidazole (HPI) and 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)thiazole (HPT) to rationalise the photophysical behaviour of the compounds exhibiting intramolecular rotation as well as excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The calculations reveal that there is a gradual variation in the properties from HPO to HPT through HPI so far as the existence of the rotational isomers in the ground state is concerned. While HPO gives rise to two stable rotamers (I and II) in all the common solvents, there is only one stable species for HPT in the S₀ state. For HPI, rotamer II is possible only in the isolated state and/or in solvents of low polarity, but in high polar solvents it gives rise to the normal form (I) only. For all the molecules in the series, however, intramolecular proton transfer (IPT) takes place in the lowest excited singlet (S₁) and the triplet (T₁) states. Combination of the rotamerism and ESIPT gives rise to multiple fluorescence bands for the fluorophores. Theoretical assignments have been made for the excitation, fluorescence and phosphorescence bands. Simulated potential energy curves (PEC) in different electronic states reveal that the IPT process is feasible in either of the S₁ and T₁ states but not in the ground state. The ESIPT reaction has been found to be favoured both thermodynamically and kinetically in these electronic states compared to the ground state. However, quantum mechanical tunnelling has been proposed for the prototropic reaction to proceed in the excited states.     

Modelling the use of lanthanides(III) as probes at calcium(II) binding sites in biological systems: Preparation and characterization of neodymium(III) and calcium(II) malonamato(-1) complexes

A bioinorganic approach into the problem of the isomorphous substitution of calcium(II) by lanthanide(III) ions in biological systems is discussed. Reactions of malonamic acid (H₂malm) with Ca^II and Nd^III sources under similar conditions yielded the compounds [Ca(Hmalm)₂]_n (1), [Nd(Hmalm)₂(H₂O)₂]_n(NO₃)_n (2) and [Nd(Hmalm)₂(H₂O)₂]_nCl_n·2nH₂O (3·2nH₂O). Their X-ray crystal structure data show that the malonamate(-1) ligand presents two different ligation modes and coordinates through the two carboxylate and the amide-O atoms, thus bridging three Ca^II ions in 1 and two Nd^III ions in 2 and 3·2nH₂O. Complex 1 is a 3D coordination polymer based on neutral repeating units, whereas 2 and 3·2nH₂O are 1D coordination polymers based on the same cationic repeating unit. Hydrogen bonding interactions further stabilize the 3D framework structure of 1 and assemble the 1D chains of 2 and 3·2nH₂O into 3D networks. The three complexes were characterized spectroscopically (IR, far-IR, and Raman) and the thermal decomposition of 2 and 3·2nH₂O was monitored by TG/DTA and TG/DTG measurements. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility data for 2 are also reported. The bioinorganic chemistry relevance of our results is discussed.

These two complexes are isostructural, crystallizing in the monoclinic system and Cc space group. In complex 2 the geometry around the nickel atom could be described as a distorted octahedron whereas in case of complex 4 the zinc atom is in a distorted tetrahedral environment.
