Acetate and malonate complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) with hydrazinium cation

The hydrazinium(1+) metal acetates and malonate dihydrates of the molecular formula [(N₂H₅)₂M(CH₃COO)₄] and (N₂H₅)₂[M(OOCCH₂COO)₂(H₂O)₂] respectively, whereM=Co, Ni or Zn, have been prepared and characterized by chemical analyses, conductance, magnetic, spectral, thermal and X-ray powder diffraction studies. The magnetic moments and electronic spectra indicate that these complexes are of high-spin octahedral variety. The infrared spectra show that the hydrazinium ions are coordinated in the case of acetate complexes, whereas in the malonate complexes the hydrazinium ions are out side the coordination sphere. These complexes undergo exothermic decomposition in the temperature range 150–450°C to give the respective metal oxide as the final residue. The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the malonate complexes indicate isomorphism among them.     

Iron(II), cobalt(III), nickel(II) and copper(II) chelates of furan and thiophene azo-oximes

Summary Complexes of furan and thiophene azo-oximes with iron(II), cobalt(III), nickel(II) and copper(II) have been prepared and characterised. Iron(II), cobalt(III) and copper(II) complexes are diamagnetic in the solid state. The diamagnetism of the copper(II) chelates is suggestive of antiferromagnetic interaction between two copper centres.¹H n.m.r. spectral data suggest atrans-octahedral geometry for the tris-chelates of cobalt(III). Nickel(II) complexes are paramagnetic, in contrast to the diamagnetism of the analogous complexes of arylazooximes. The electronic spectra are suggestive of octahedral geometry for the iron(II), cobalt(III) and nickel(II) complexes, andD _4h -symmetry for copper(II). Infrared data indicate N-bonding of the oximino-group to the metal ions.     

Syntheses,Spectral, Thermal and Electrochemical Studies of 3-Carboxylacetonehydroxamic Acid and its Iron(Ii), Cobalt(Ii), Nickel(Ii), Copper(Ii) and Zinc(Ii) Complexes

3-Carboxylacetonehydroxamic acid (CAHA) and its iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis and IR spectra and magnetic susceptibility. The pK _a1 and pK _a2 values of the ligand in aqueous solution were found to be 6.5 ± 0.1 and 8.6 ± 0.1, which correspond to dissociation of carboxyl and hydroxamic protons, respectively. The dianion CAH acts as a tetradentate ligand through the hydroxamate and carboxylate groups and coordinates to the divalent metal ions, forming coordination polymers with a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1 : 1 in the solid state. FTIR spectra and thermal decomposition of the ligand and its metal complexes were recorded and briefly discussed. The electrochemical behavior of the complexes was investigated by square wave voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry at neutral pH. In contrast to the solid state, the iron(II) and copper(II) cations form stable complex species with a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1 : 2 in solution. The iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes show two-electron irreversible reduction behavior, while the copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes undergo quasi-reversible and reversible electrode reactions, respectively. The stability constants of the complexes were determined by square wave voltammetry.     

NEW LIPOPHILIC BISPOCKET-PORPHYRINS FOR CHEMOTHERAPY OF CANCER (PART I); PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF 5,10,15,20-TETRAKIS(3′,5′-DI-t-BUTYLPHENYL) PORPHYRIN METAL COMPLEXES1

Abstract

A series of highly lipophilic bis-pocket porphyrins, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3′, 5′-di-t-butylphenyl)porphyrin with five metals (copper(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), cobalt(II), and iron(III)), have been prepared and characterized on the basis of electronic, infrared and ¹H NMR spectra. Although electronic spectra of these porphyrins are substantially the same as their prototype tetraphenylporphyrin complexes of the respective metals, their solubility in common organic solvents such as chloroform, benzene, and hexane is dramatically enhanced.     

Spectral, thermal, and X-ray studies on some new bis and tris-hydrazine and hydrazinium metal pyruvates

Some bis-hydrazine metal pyruvates of transition metal ions of the formula M[CH₃COCOO]₂ [N₂H₄]₂, where M = Co, Ni, Zn or Cd, tris-hydrazine metal pyruvates of the formula M[CH₃COCOO]₂ [N₂H₄]₃, where M = Co, Ni, Zn or Cd, and hydrazinium metal pyruvates [N₂H₅]₂M[CH₃COCOO]₄, where M = Co or Ni have been prepared and the compositions of the complexes have been determined by chemical analysis. The magnetic moments and electronic spectra of the complexes suggest a high-spin octahedral geometry for them. Infrared spectral data of bis-hydrazine complexes indicate the bidentate bridging mode shown by hydrazine molecules and mono dentate coordination by pyruvate ions. However, in tris-hydrazine complexes the pyruvate ions are ionic in nature. In hydrazinium complexes two hydrazinium ions and four pyruvate ions show unidentate coordination mode resulting in six coordination around metal ions. Thermo gravimetry and differential thermal analysis in air reveal that most of the complexes decompose in one step to give the respective metal carbonate as the final residue. However, the hydrazinium complexes yield Co₂O₃ or NiO as the residue. The final residues were identified by their X-ray powder data. The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of each series of complexes reveal isomorphism among the series.     

Transition metal complexes of acetamidomalondihydroxamate: synthesis,spectral, thermal and electrochemical studies

Acetamidomalondihydroxamate (K₂AcAMDH) and its manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV–VIS, IR and magnetic susceptibility. The pK _a1 and pK _a2 values of the dihydroxamic acid in aqueous solution were found to be 8.0?±?0.1 and 9.7?±?0.1. The dihydroxamate anion AcAMDH behaves as a tetradentate bridging ligand through both hydroxamate groups, forming complexes with a metal to ligand ratio of 1?:?1 in the solid state. The FTIR spectra and thermal decompositions of the ligand and its metal complexes were recorded. The redox behavior of the complexes was investigated in aqueous solution by square wave voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry at neutral pH. In contrast to the solid state, in solution the copper(II) and zinc(II) ions form stable complex species with a metal to ligand ratio of 1?:?2. The iron(II) and nickel(II) complexes show a two-electron irreversible reduction behavior, while the copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes undergo reversible electrode reactions. The stability constants of the complexes were determined by square wave voltammetry.     

Study on Determination of Six Transition Metal Ions in Biological Samples by SPE and RP‐HPLC

This paper reports the utilization of solid phase extraction and the reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography (RP‐HPLC) for the determination of six transition metal ions (iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and manganese) in biological samples. The samples were digested by microwave digestion. The iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and manganese ions in the digested samples can react with 2‐(2‐quinolinylazo)‐5‐diethylaminophenol (QADEAP) to form colored chelates in pH 4.0 acetic acid‐sodium acetic buffer solutions and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB) medium. These chelates were enriched by solid phase extraction with C₁₈ cartridge. Then the chelates were separated on a Waters Nova‐Pak‐C₁₈ column (3.9 × 150 mm, 5 μm) by gradient elution with methanol (containing 0.5% of acetic acid and 0.1% of CTMAB) and 0.05 mol/L pH 4.0 acetic acid‐sodium acetic buffer solution (containing 0.1% of CTMAB) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. The detection limits of iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and manganese are 3 ng/L, 4 ng/L, 2 ng/L, 4 ng/L, 8 ng/L, 10 ng/L, respectively. This method was applied to the determination of iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and manganese in biological samples with good results.     

Synthesis and characterization of transition metal complexes of N′-[(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)methylene]thiophene-2-carbohydrazide

A hydrazone ligand (HL) containing the thiophene moiety has been prepared via condensation of thiophene-2-carbohydrazide with 1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde. The complexes of copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II), manganese(II), zinc(II), palladium(II), iron(III), ruthenium(III), uranyl(VI), and titanium(IV) with the ligand were prepared in good yield from the reaction of the ligand with the corresponding metal salts. The ligand and complexes were characterized using infrared, mass spectra, nuclear magnetic resonance, electronic absorption spectra, electron spin resonance, and magnetic moment measurements as well as elemental and thermal analyses. The results showed that the complexes are enolic by nature, whilst the ratio between the metal ion and the ligand depends on the acidity of the metallic ions and their oxidation numbers.     

Synthesis, spectral, thermal and antimicrobial studies of some new tri metallic biologically active ceftriaxone complexes

Iron, cobalt, nickel and copper complexes of ceftriaxone were prepared in 1:3 ligand:metal ratio to examine the ligating properties of the different moieties of the drug. The complexes were found to have high percentages of coordinated water molecules. The modes of bonding were discussed depending on the infrared spectral absorption peaks of the different allowed vibrations. The Nujol mull electronic absorption spectra and the magnetic moment values indicated the Oh geometry of the metal ions in the complexes. The ESR spectra of the iron, cobalt, and copper complexes were determined and discussed. The thermal behaviors of the complexes were studied by TG and DTA techniques. The antimicrobial activities of the complexes were examined and compared to that of the ceftriaxone itself.     

Template synthesis and spectral characterization of some Schiff base complexes derived from quinoxaline-2-carboxaldehyde and L-histidine

New Schiff base complexes of Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) were synthesized by template condensation of quinoxaline-2-carboxaldehyde, L-histidine, and the metal compound, and were characterized by elemental analysis, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, electronic spectra, conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility measurements, ESR spectra, and thermal analysis. In all the complexes, the Schiff base coordinates through azomethine nitrogen, quinoxaline nitrogen, and carboxylato oxygen. The physicochemical and spectroscopic measurements reveal square planar geometry for the copper(II) complex, tetrahedral geometry for the manganese(II), cobalt(II), and zinc(II) complexes, and octahedral geometry for the iron(III) and nickel(II) complexes.     

Metal‐based antibacterial and antifungal amino acid derived Schiff bases: their synthesis,characterization and in vitro biological activity

A new series of antibacterial and antifungal amino acid derived Schiff bases and their cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) metal complexes have been synthesized and characterized by their elemental analyses, molar conductances, magnetic moments, IR and electronic spectral measurements. The spectral data indicated the Schiff base ligands ( L ₁– L ₅) derived by condensation of salicylaldehyde with glycine, alanine, phenylalanine, methionine and cysteine, to act as tridentate towards divalent metal ions (cobalt, copper, nickel and zinc) via the azomethine‐N, deprotonated carboxyl group of the respective amino acid and deprotonated oxygen atom of salicylaldehyde by a stoichiometric reaction of M: L (1:2) to form complexes of the type K₂[M( L )₂] [where M = Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II)]. The magnetic moments and electronic spectral data suggested that all complexes have an octahedral geometry. Elemental analyses and NMR spectral data of the ligands and their Zn (II) complexes agree with their proposed structures. The synthesized ligands, along with their metal complexes, were screened for their in‐vitro antibacterial activity against four Gram‐negative (Escherichia coli, Shigella flexeneri, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella typhi) and two Gram ‐ positive (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) bacterial strains and for in‐vitro antifungal activity against Trichophyton longifusus, Candida albicans, Aspergillus flavus, Microsporum canis, Fusarium solani and Candida glaberata. The results of these studies show the metal complexes to be more antibacterial/antifungal against one or more species as compared with the uncomplexed Schiff base ligands. The brine shrimp bioassay was also carried out to study their in‐vitro cytotoxic properties. Only three compounds ( 2, 11 and 17 ) displayed potent cytotoxic activity as LD₅₀ = 8.196 × 10^?4, 7.315 × 10^?4 and 5.599 × 10^?4 M /ml respectively, against Artemia salina.

Synthesis,characterization, electrical and biological studies on some bivalent metal complexes

Metal complexes of manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) with Schiff base derived from 2,5-dihydroxyacetophenone and s-benzyldithiocarbazate have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, molar conductance, molecular weight, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and electronic and infrared spectra. The molar conductivity data show them to be nonelectrolytes. The Schiff base behaves as a tridentate dibasic ONS donor towards metal ions. Thermal analyses indicate the presence of water in the complexes, making them six and four coordinates. The solid state electrical conductivity of the ligand and its complexes has been measured in the temperature range 313–414 K and the complexes are found to show semiconducting behavior. The antibacterial activities of the ligand and its complexes have also been screened against various organisms and it is observed that the coordination of metal ions has a pronounced effect on the bacterial activity of the ligand.     

Synthesis and properties of transition and lanthanide complexes with benzyl monohydrazone-3-hydrazine- 4-benzyl-6-phenyl pyridazine ligand (BHP)

Synthesis and characterization of benzyl-monohydrazone-3-hydrazino-4-benzyl-6-phenyl pyridazine (BHP) and its complexes with copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II), zinc(II), manganese(II), cadmium(II), thorium(IV), dioxyuranium(VI), samarium(III) and erbium(III) are presented. The protonation equilibrium of BHP ion and complex formation equilibrium with the metal ions have been studied by potentiometry in 75% (v/v) dioxane-water and 0.10M KNO₃ at different temperatures (10, 20, 30 and 40°C). A series of mononuclear complexes [ML _n ]^{(1? z )+} (L^? =?BHP and n =?1 ??z) were found in solution and their formation constants, enthalpies and entropies were determined.

The solid metal complexes and corresponding thermal products were elucidated by elemental analysis, conductance, IR and electronic spectra, magnetic moments, ¹H NMR and TG-DSC measurements as well as by mass spectroscopy. The use of BHP as analytical reagents for the determination of copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) as well as extracting agents for these metal ions are discussed.     

Polymeric Coordination Compounds Derived from Transition Metal(II) with Tetradentate Schiff‐base: Synthetic,Spectroscopic, Magnetic and Thermal Approach

The polymeric coordination compounds have been synthesized using the dipotassium salt of N,N′‐di(carboxymethylene)terephthalaldehydediimine (K₂SB¹) or N,N′‐di(carboxyethylene)terephthalaldehydediimine (K₂SB²) with manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II). The ligands have been characterized by ¹H‐NMR, and ¹³C‐NMR spectra. The polychelates have been characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic measurements, thermogravimetric analyses, electronic spectra and infrared spectra. The coordination compounds are colored, and the central metal ions are octahedrally coordinated with two water molecules and the Schiff bases. The Schiff bases act as di‐negative tetradentate ligands, in which bonding occurs through two oxygen and two nitrogen atoms. The polymers are insoluble in all common organic solvents such as acetone, methanol, ethanol, N,N‐dimethylformamide and dimethylsulfoxide.     

Synthesis, characterization and antimicrobial activity of 3d transition metal complexes of a biambidentate ligand containing quinoxaline moiety

A new series of oxovanadium(IV), chromium(III), manganese(II), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) complexes of the 3-hydrazino quinoxaline-2-one (HQO) were prepared and characterized. The ligand exhibits biambidenticity. It behaves as a bidentate ON donor in oxovanadium(IV), iron(III) and copper(II) complexes and as a bis bidentate ONNN donor in chromium(III), manganese(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes. The nature of bonding and the stereochemistry of the complexes have been deduced from elemental analyses, thermal, infrared, ¹H NMR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. An octahedral geometry was suggested for all the complexes. All the complexes show subnormal magnetic moments. The ligand, HQO, and its complexes were tested against one strain Gram +ve bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus), Gram −ve bacteria (Escherichia coli). The prepared metal complexes exhibited higher antimicrobial activities than the parent ligand.     

Structural elucidation of manganese(II), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of a new multidentate dihydrazino quinoxaline derivative

Summary Manganese(II), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of a new multidentate oxygen-nitrogen donor, bis(N-salicylidene)-2,3-dihydrazino-1,4-quinoxaline (H₂BSDHQ) were prepared and characterised by elemental analysis, conductance, thermal, spectral and magnetic data. H₂BSDHQ deprotonates to give a dibasic ONNO donor set in a trivalent iron(III) complex, which binds to the divalent metal ions in a bis-tridentate fashion, using two monobasic ONN donor sets, and resulting in polymeric complexes. Octahedral geometries are proposed for all these complexes, and preliminary studies show that they possess potential antimicrobial activity.     

New hydrazinium lanthanide sulphite hydrates

Some new hydrazinium lanthanide sulphite hydrates of the formula N₂H₅Ln(SO₃)₂(H₂O)₂ where Ln=La, Pr, Nd and Sm and N₂H₅Ce(SO₃)₂ have been prepared and characterized by chemical analyses, magnetic studies and electronic and infrared spectroscopy. Thermal degradation of these complexes has been investigated by simultaneous TG-DTA techniques. These complexes decompose in air after dehydration to give the respective lanthanide sulphate as the final residue. However, cerium complex gives a mixture of cerium sulphate and ceric oxide as the end products. Cerium and neodymium complexes have also been subjected to thermal degradation in nitrogen atmosphere and the dehydration of neodymium complex was observed at a higher temperature than in air. The anhydrous neodymium and cerium complexes decompose in one step to give the respective sulphate in nitrogen atmosphere.     

Chelating Polymers. III. Chelating Monomers and Polymers from s-Triazinyl Substituted Hydrazinoacetic Acids

The model chelating compounds β-[2,4-bis(dimethylamino)-s-triazin-6-yl] hydrazinoacetic acid, β-[2,4-bis(dimethylaniino)-s-triazind-yl] hydrazino-N, N-diacetic acid, 2,4-bis(dimethylamino)-s-triazin-6-yl-aminoacetic acid, and 2,4-bis(dimethylamino)-s-triazin-6-yl-iminodiacetic acid have been synthesized and characterized by composition analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and potentiometric titration data. The copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II), zinc(II), magnesium(II), and palladium(II) complexes of the first two model compounds, and the copper, nickel, cobalt, and zinc complexes of the third and fourth model compounds have been prepared. The infrared absorption spectra of the model compounds and their complexes were recorded for the range 3800 to 600 cm^?1, and the assignment of pertinent bands was made by comparison with reported infrared correlations. In those cases where applicable, shifts in the NH stretching vibration and carboxylate stretching vibration frequencies of the metal complexes were compared to those of the proper references and used as an indication of possible chelation effects in the metal complexes.

The aldehyde-reactable β-[2,4-diarnino-s-triazin-6-y1] hydrazinoacetic acid was also prepared and characterized; its polymers were prepared by the reaction of both the free ligand and its copper(II) complex with formaldehyde. Qualitative studies on the reaction of these polymers with metal ions and on the ease of metal ion elution from the polymers indicate that t h is a promising chelating polymer system.

The hydrazone reacts with the metal salts to yield complexes of two types; the addition compounds [VO(H₂dapf)]SO₄, [M(H₂dapf)Cl]Cl and the deprotonated complexes [M(dapf)H₂O] [M=manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) or zinc(II)] in neutral and alkaline media, respectively. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, electronic, i.r. and e.s.r. studies and their stereochemistries are discussed.

A scheme has been devised whereby PAQH complexes of iron, nickel, copper and cobalt can be separated chromatographically and determined semiquantitatively in presence of up to tenfold excesses of interfering metal ions. The visual detection limits for iron, nickel and copper were found to be 0.01 μg and for cobalt 0.007 μg per spot. Interesting relationships were observed between R_F values, decomposition temperatures and position of the absorption maxima of the adsorbed complexes.
