Structural Relationships between the Hemiporphyrazine Macrocyclic Ligand and its Metal Complexes. II.: Planar Neutral Ligand,C26H16N8, and Four Isomorphous Metal Complexes, [M(C26H16N8)(H2O)], M=Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II)

Crystal and molecular structures of the planar neutral ligand, C₂₆H₁₆N₈, and the four isomorphous five-coordinated metal complexes, [M(C₂₆H₁₆N₈)(H₂O)], M = Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), have been determined from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The free ligand hpH₂, C₂₆H₁₆N₈, belongs to the P 2₁/c space group with Z=2, a=4.142(3), b=23.736(6), c=10.338(3) Ä, β=94.66(6)°. The metal complexes monohydrate Mhp-H₂O all belong to the orthorhombic Pcab space group with Z=8. The dimensions are roughly 8.8×19.3×23.7 ų. In each structure, the macrocyclic ligand has an almost planar conformation which differs from the saddle shaped ligand hydrate (hpH₂·H₂O) and the nickel complex [Nihp]⁵. The distances from the center of the macrocyclic ring to the nitrogen atom of the free ligand are 1.907(6) and 2.245(6)Å. The coordination geometry in these four complexes is square pyramidal with a water molecule as an axial ligand. The bond distances of M(II)-O(H₂O), M(II)-N1 (imine), M(II)-N3 (pyridine) are: 2.19(1), 2.00(2), 2.27(2)Å respectively for the manganese complex; 2.08(1), 1.97(1), 2.23(1)Å for the cobalt complex; 2.33(1), 1.92(3), 2.18(1)Å for the copper complex; 2.110(5), 1.964(6), 2.252(6)Å for the zinc complex. The variation of metal-ligand distances can be correlated to the metal d orbital occupancy. A comparison with similar ligands will be presented.     

Crystallographic report: Diiodo[tris(2‐pyridyl)amine]zinc(II), [(C5H4N)3N]ZnI2

The zinc(II) atom in the molecule of [(C₅H₄N)₃N]ZnI₂ is tetrahedrally coordinated to two nitrogen atoms of the tris(2‐pyridyl)amine ligand and two iodides. The coordination moieties are connected to give a linear structure by intermolecular π–π interactions between the pyridyl rings. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis, thermal, spectral and magnetic studies of complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Ru(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) with 2, 3-disubstituted quinazolin-(3H)-4-ones

A number of complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Ru(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) with 2-methyl-3-(carboxy methyl) quinazolin (3H)-4-one (MCMQ) and 2-phenyl-3-(carboxy methyl) quinazolin (3H)-4-one (PCMQ) have been synthesized and characterized by analytical, conductivity, thermal, magnetic, infrared, electronic, proton magnetic resonance and electron spin resonance spectral data. Based on analytical data, the stoichiometry and the association with other molecules of the complexes have been determined. Conductivity data show that all these complexes are nonelectrolytes. Infrared and PMR spectral data indicate that both the ligands are uninegative bidentate with all the metal ions. Based on electronic spectral data, the geometries of the complexes have been indicated. Electronic spectral parameters for Co(II) and Ni(II) and ESR parameters for Cu(II) complexes have been calculated and relevant conclusions have been drawn with respect to the nature of bonds present in them.     

Synthesis, characterization and DNA-binding studies of ruthenium(II) mixed-ligand complexes containing dipyrido[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-b]quinoxaline

A novel ligand dipyrido[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-b]quinoxaline (dpoq) and its complexes [Ru(bpy)₂(dpoq)]²⁺ and [Ru(phen)₂(dpoq)]²⁺ (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, electrospray mass spectra and ¹H NMR. The interaction of Ru(II) complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was investigated by absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, thermal denaturation and viscosity measurements. Results suggest that two Ru(II) complexes bind to DNA via an intercalative mode.

Synthesis,characterization and antimicrobial activity of zinc(II) ibuprofen complexes with nitrogen-based ligands

Metal carboxylate complexes possess different carboxylate coordination modes, e.g. monodentate, bidentate, and bridging bidentate. Five Zn(II) complexes were prepared and characterized in order to examine their coordination modes in addition to their biological activity. The syntheses were started by preparation of [Zn(ibup)₂(H₂O)₂] (1). Then, different nitrogen-donor ligands reacted with 1 to produce [Zn(ibup)₂(2-ampy)₂] (2), [Zn(ibup)(2-ammethylpy)] (3), [Zn(ibup)(2,2′-bipy)] (4), and [Zn₂(ibup)₄(2-methylampy)₂] (5) (ibup = ibuprofen, 2-ampy = 2-aminopyridine, 2-ammethylpy = 2-aminomethylpyridine, 2,2′-bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine, 2-methylampy = 2-(methylamino)pyridine). IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C{¹H}-NMR and UV–vis spectroscopies were used for characterization. The crystal structures of 2 and 5 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Investigation of in vitro antibacterial activities for the complexes against Gram-positive (Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis) bacteria were done using agar well-diffusion method. Complex 1 showed antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. Complexes 2 and 3 did not exhibit antibacterial activity. Complex 4 showed antibacterial activity and was chosen for further studies to determine the inhibition zone diameter for different concentrations and to set the minimum inhibitory concentration. The antibacterial activity against most of the bacteria was minimized as a result of the complexation of zinc ibuprofen with 2,2′-bipy in 4.     

Synthesis and characterization of N,N-diethylnicotinamide-acetylsalicylato complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)

N,N-diethylnicotinamide-acetylsalicylato complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) were synthesized and investigated by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, solid state UV–Vis, direct injection probe mass spectra, FTIR spectra and thermoanalytic TG-DTG methods. The complexes contain two waters, two acetylsalicylate (asa) and two N,N-diethylnicotinamide (dena) ligands per formula unit. The acetylsalicylate and N,N-diethylnicotinamide are monodentate through acidic oxygen and nitrogen of pyridine ring. Decomposition of each complex starts with dehydration then decomposition of N,N-diethylnicotinamide and acetylsalicylate, respectively. The thermal dehydration of the complexes takes place in one or two steps. The decomposition mechanism and thermal stability of the investigated complexes are interpreted in terms of their structures. The final decomposition products are found to be metal oxides.     

Synthesis, characterization and reactivity of palladium(II) compounds containing terdentate [Csp, N, S] or [Csp, N, S] ligands

The study of the reactivity of R---CH=N---(C₆H₄-2-SMe) with R=C₆H₅ or 2,4,6-Me₃-C₆H₂ with palladium(II) salts is reported. These studies have allowed us to prepare and characterize the coordination complexes: cis-[Pd{R---CH=N---(C₆H₄-2-SMe)}Cl₂] {R=C₆H₅ or 2,4,6-Me₃-C₆H₂} and the cyclopalladated compounds [Pd{C₆H₄---CH=N---(C₆H₄-2-SMe)}Cl] and [Pd{(2-CH₂-4,6-Me₂-C₆H₂)---CH=N---(C₆H₄-2-SMe)}Cl]. The X-ray crystal structures of the latter complexes reveal that the thioimines act as a [Csp², phenyl,N,S]⁻ and as a [Csp³, N,S]⁻ terdentate group, respectively. The study of the reactions of the cyclopalladated compounds with PPh₃ is also reported.

The synthesis and structural characterization of the first organometallic derivative of [Ni(S₂N₂H)₂] ( 1 ) are reported. Treatment of K₂[Ni(S₂N₂)₂] ( 2 ) with stoichiometric amounts of [Cp₂TiCl₂] in boiling toluene afforded black, crystalline [Cp₂TiNi(S₂N₂)₂] ( 3 ) in 50 % yield. According to a single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction study, the novel heterobimetallic complex 3 comprises a nearly planar TiNi(S₂N₂)₂ arrangement. The Ti···Ni separation in 3 is 2.8348(5) Å, a value that is typical for bridged early‐late heterobimetallic complexes.

Synthesis,characterization, crystal structures, in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity of palladium(II) and zinc(II) complexes with 2-formyl and 2-acetyl pyridine N(4)-1-(2-pyridyl)-piperazinyl thiosemicarbazone

The present paper includes synthesis and spectral characterization of the novel prepared palladium(II) and zinc(II) complexes with 2-formyl pyridine N(4)-1-(2-pyridyl)-piperazinyl thiosemicarbazone, HFo4Npypipe, 1 and the 2-acetyl pyridine N(4)-1-(2-pyridyl)-piperazinyl thiosemicarbazone, HAc4Npypipe, 2. The Pd(II) complexes [PdCl(Fo4Npypipe)], 3, [PdCl(Ac4Npypipe)], 4 and the Zn(II) complexes [ZnCl₂(Fo4Npypipe)], 5 and [ZnCl₂(Ac4Npypipe)], 6 have been characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic studies. The crystal structure of the complexes [PdCl(Fo4Npippy)], 3 and [PdCl(Ac4Npippy)], 4, have been solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The electronic, IR, UV/Vis, and NMR spectroscopic data of the complexes are reported. The results of the cytotoxic activity of 1–6 have been evaluated in vitro against the cells of three human cancer cell lines: MCF-7, T24, A-549 and a mouse L-929 (a fibroblast-like cell line cloned from strain L). For selected compounds 2 and 6 the acute toxicity and antitumor activity were evaluated on leukemia P388-bearing mice. The Zn(II) compounds 5 and 6 are considered as agents with potential antitumor activity, and can therefore be candidates for further stages of screening in vitro and/or in vivo.
