Fluorescence Quenching of Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)Ruthenium(II) Dichloride by Certain Organic Dyes

Fluorescence quenching of [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺ by a series of organic dyes has been investigated by using the steady state fluorescence technique in aqueous medium. The dyes used are anthraquinone dyes: uniblue, acid blue 129, alizarin, alizarin red S and the azo dyes: congo red, sunset yellow, methyl orange, tartrazine, acid orange 63, methyl red and erichrome black T. The quenching of [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺ was found to obey the Stern-Volmer equation and the corresponding Stern-Volmer plots were linear indicating dynamic quenching. The quenching rate constants (k _q) were calculated from the fluorescence data. The mechanism of quenching was discussed on the basis of the quenching rate constants as well as the reduction potential of dyes. The electron transfer mechanism has been proved by the calculation of Gibbs energy changes (ΔG _et) by applying the Rehm-Weller equation.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Tris(2,2′-bipyridine) and tris(1,10-phenanthroline) Copper(II) Hexafluorophosphate. Crystal Structure of the Phenanthroline Complex

The tris-(bidentate)chelate complexes [Cu(NN)₃](PF₆)₂ where NN=2,2'-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline have been isolated as secondary products in the reaction between the dimers [{Cu(NN)}₂(μ-OH)₂](PF₆)₂·2H₂O and di-2-pyridylketone. the X-ray crystal structure of [Cu(phen)₃](PF₆)₂ showed a distorted octahedral C ₂ geometry around teh metal atom, with two Cu-N distances being much longer than the other four. Magnetic susceptibility measurements (in the 4.4-290K range) correspond, in both cases, to a d⁹ configuration without significant magnetic interaction. A signal (g=2.102) was observed in the EPR spectrum of the bipy complex and the two axial components were resolved for the phen complex, with g_||=2.249, g_⊥=2.083 and A_||=137 x 10^-4cm^-1. In this case also a signal at g=2.128 is observed.

Antimicrobial mechanism of copper (II) 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2′-bipyridyl complex on bacterial and fungal pathogens

Copper based metallo drugs were prepared and their antibacterial, antifungal, molecular mechanism of [Cu(SAla)Phen]·H₂O and [Cu(SAla)bpy]·H₂O complexes were investigated. The [Cu(SAla)Phen]·H₂O and [Cu(SAla)bpy]·H₂O were derived from the Schiff base alanine salicylaldehyde. [Cu(SAla)Phen]·H₂O showed noteworthy antibacterial and antifungal activity than the [Cu(SAla)bpy]·H₂O and ligand alanine, salicylaldehyde. The [Cu(SAla)Phen]·H₂O complex showed significant antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella paratyphi and the antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans in well diffusion assay. The mode of action of copper (II) complex was analyzed by DNA cleavage activity and in silico molecular docking. The present findings provide important insight into the molecular mechanism of copper (II) complexes in susceptible bacterial and fungal pathogens. These results collectively support the use of [Cu(SAla)Phen]·H₂O complex as a suitable drug to treat bacterial and fungal infections.     

The effect of Fe(II) ions on the 1,10-phenanthroline and neocuproine intercalates of γ-zirconium phosphate

1,10-Phenanthroline (phen), 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (neocuproine), and 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline have been intercalated between layers of -zirconium phosphate (-ZrP). The observed interlayer distances are not a simple function of the size of guest molecules. Despite the fact that -ZrP takes up very few Fe²⁺ ions, the phen and neocuproine intercalates do take up some Fe²⁺ ions without further changes in the interlayer distances. The chemical environments around Fe²⁺ ions between layers of the intercalates were investigated by⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. A fairly large fraction of the Fe²⁺ ions was found to be in a high-spin state. The low-spin [Fe(phen)₃]²⁺ ions are also ion exchanged on -ZrP, with the expansion of the interlayer up to 19.9 Å.

Flow-Injection Chemiluminescent Determination of Piroxicam Using Tris (2,2′-bipyridyl) Ruthenium(II)—Potassium Permanganate System

Abstract

A rapid and sensitive chemiluminescence method using flow-injection has been developed for the determination of an analgesic agent drug, piroxicam. The method is based on the chemiluminescence reaction of piroxicam with an acidic potassium permanganate and Ru(bipy)₃ ²⁺. The chemiluminescence intensity is greatly enhanced when quinine sulfate is used as a sensitizer. After optimization of the different experimental parameters, a calibration graph was obtained over a concentration range of 3.0 × 0^?8–3.0 × 0^?5 mol L^?1 with the detection limit of 1.0 × 0^?8 mol L^?1. The relative standard deviation is 1.5% (n = 11) for the determination of 8.0 × 10^?7 mol L^?1 piroxicam. The proposed method was successfully applied to commercial tablets, spiked serum, and urine samples.     

Kinetics and mechanism of substitution of bis(tptz)iron(II) by 2,2′-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline

The kinetics of substitution of Fe(tptz)²+₂ by 2,2-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline have been investigated in acetate buffers in the 3.6–5.6pH range employing stopped-flow spectrophotometry. These reactions are very fast and complete within 5s. The rate of substitution is linearly dependent on [phen] and [bpy]², and increases with the increase in pH. Suitable mechanisms have been proposed involving the unprotonated form of the entering ligand, viz. bipyridine/phenanthroline as the reactive species. The pK_a values of bipyridine and phenanthroline, determined from the kinetic data, are in agreement with the literature values. It is concluded that the substitutions of iron(II)-diimine complexes also occur by an associative mechanism.     

A Direct Chemiluminescence Method for the Determination of Prulifloxacin Using Tris-(4,7-Diphenyl-1,10-Phenanthrolinedisulfonic Acid) Ruthenium(II)–Cerium(IV) System

Abstract

A simple, rapid, injection chemiluminescence method is described for the determination of prulifloxacin, a commonly used antibiotic. A strong chemiluminescence signal was detected when a mixture of the analyte and tris-(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthrolinedisulfonic acid)ruthenium(II) was injected into cerium(IV) sulfate. The chemiluminescence signal is proportional to the concentration of prulifloxacin in the range 4.0 × 10^?8–9.0 × 10^?6 mol L^?1. The detection limit is 1.0 × 10^?8 mol L^?1, and the relative standard deviation is 2.2% (n = 11) for the determination of 8.0 × 10^?7 mol L^?1 prulifloxacin. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of prulifloxacin in pharmaceutical preparations in capsules, spiked serum, and urine samples.     

Investigations on the redox behaviour of manganese in manganese(II)–saccharin and manganese(II)–saccharin–1,10-phenanthroline complexes

The redox behaviour of manganese system in Mn–Sac and Mn–Sac–Phen complexes were studied using cyclic voltammetry technique at glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in 0.1 M KCl electrolyte. The CV of Mn–Sac solution is more or less similar to that of uncoordinated Mn (in MnCl₂) accept slight difference in peak position and peak current. The presence of secondary ligand phenanthroline (in Mn–Sac–Phen complex) changes the CV of Mn system largely compared to those of uncoordinated Mn and Mn–Sac. The redox system is irreversible in Mn–Sac and quasi-reversible in Mn–Sac–Phen complex. The effect of concentration and pH on the redox behaviour of Mn system have been studied for both the complexes.     

Spectrocyclic Voltammetry of Ruthenium Purple Electrodeposited on a WO3/Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)-ruthenium(II)/Polymer Hybrid Film

Summary: Electrochemical reactions of Ruthenium purple, Feequation/tex2gif-stack-1.gif[Ru^II(CN)₆]₃ (RP; Fe^III-Ru^II) were studied using a spectrocyclic voltammetry (SCV) technique. The SCV measurement for an RP film coated on an ITO electrode showed a reversible redox between RP and Ruthenium white (RW; Fe^II-Ru^II) at 0.14 V vs saturated calomel reference electrode (SCE). An RP film was electrodeposited on a hybrid film of tungsten trioxide (WO₃)/tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) ([Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺; bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine)/poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) (denoted as WRP film) from a colloidal solution containing 0.5 mM FeCl₃, 0.5 mM K₄[Ru(CN)₆] and 40 mM KCl using a potentiodynamic multi-sweep technique. In a cyclic voltammogram (CV) of a WRP/RP film, a redox response was observed at 0.61 V in addition to essential redox responses of WRP hybrid film (a [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺/[Ru(bpy)₃]³⁺ redox at 1.03 V and a H_xWO₃/WO₃ redox below 0.09 V), but a redox response of RW/RP was not observed at 0.14 V. The SCV measurement for the WRP/RP film suggested that the redox response at 0.61 V is attributed to a redox of [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺/[Ru(bpy)₃]³⁺ interacted electrostatically with RP. It also showed that RW is oxidized to RP via [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺/[Ru(bpy)₃]³⁺ redox and RP is reversibly reduced to RW via H_xWO₃/WO₃ redox. This unique geared electrochemical reaction for the WRP/RP film leads to a hysteresis property of an RW/RP redox.     

Interaction of 3,5-dimethylpyrazole with cobalt(II) carboxylates containing coordinated 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2′-dipyridyl

The reaction of Co₃(??-OOCBu ^t )₆(NEt₃)₂ with 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2??-dipyridyl in benzene at room temperature yields L₂Co₂(??-OH₂)(??-OOCBu ^t )₄ complexes (L₂ = Phen (1a) and Dipy (1b)). The reaction of n1a (1b) with 3,5-dimethylpyrazole gives a mixture of L₂Co(Hdmpz)₂(OOCBu ^t )₂ complexes (2a, 2b) and L₂Co(Hdmpz)(OOCBu ^t )₂ (3a, 3b), and their yield is determined by the ratio of the initial reagents. As distinct from pivalates, for cobalt(II) phenanthroline-benzoate, only the (Phen)Co(Hdmpz)₂(OOCPh)₂ complex (4) has been isolated. The structures of the synthesized compounds have been determined by X-ray crystallography.     

Ruthenium(II) complexes containing 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine as ancillary ligands: synthesis,characterization and DNA-binding

Two new Ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes [Ru(dmp)₂(ipbp)](ClO₄)₂ (1) (dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, ipbp = 3-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)-4H-1-banzopyran-2-one) and [Ru(dmb)₂(ipbp)](ClO₄)₂ (2) (dmb = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FAB-MS, ES-MS and ¹H NMR and cyclic voltammetric methods. The DNA-binding behaviors of these complexes were investigated by spectroscopic titration, viscosity measurements, and thermal denaturation. Absorption titration and thermal denaturation studies reveal that these complexes are moderately strong binders of calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA). Viscosity measurements show that the complexes 1 and 2 interact with CT-DNA by intercalative mode. The DNA-binding affinity of the complex 2 is larger than that of complex 1.

Investigations of ternary complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) with oxydiacetate anion and 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2′-bipyridine in solutions

Potentiometric (PT) and conductometric (CT) titration methods have been used to determine the stoichiometry and formation constants in water for a series of ternary complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) involving the oxydiacetate anion (ODA) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) ligands, namely [Co(ODA)(phen)(H₂O)], [Co(ODA)(bpy)(H₂O)], [Ni(ODA)(phen)(H₂O)] and [Ni(ODA)(bpy)(H₂O)]. The ternary complex formation process was found to take place in a stepwise manner in which the oxydiacetate ligand acts as a primary ligand and the phen or bipy ligands act as auxiliary ones. The stability of the ternary complexes formed is discussed in the relation to the corresponding binary ones. Furthermore, the kinetics of the substitution reactions of the aqua ligands in the coordination sphere of the Ni-ODA and Co-ODA complexes to phen or bipy were studied by the stopped-flow method. The kinetic measurements were performed in the 288–303 K temperature range, at a constant concentration of phen or bipy and at seven different concentrations of the binary complexes (4–7 mM). The influence of experimental conditions and the kind of the auxiliary ligands (phen/bipy) on the substitution rate was discussed.      

Sensitization of Niobium Pentoxide Thin Films by cis-Dithiocyanate (2,2-bipyridyl-4,4′dicarboxylic acid) Ruthenium(II) Complex

The sensitization caused by the adsorption of a ruthenium complex in a niobium thin film (d < 300 nm) was analysed by photoelectrochemical measurements. The films were coated on a indium-tin-oxide (ITO) conductor glass by a dip-coating technique. The non-sensitized film had only photoelectrochemical current in the UV region (i 40 nA). The sensitization of the film by cis-dithiocyanate (2,2-bipyridyl-4,4dicarboxylic acid) ruthenium(II) complex altered the shape of the non-normalized action spectrum with the presence of photoelectrochemical current in the visible range ( 400 nm). This photoelectrochemical current (i 70 nA) was associated with electron injection into the niobium pentoxide conduction band due to metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) of the ruthenium complex. The shape of the action spectrum in the UV range ( 400 nm) changed with the application of an electric potential to the film surface and the photoelectrochemical current associated with the ligand-to-metal charge transfer of niobia film decreased for higher ruthenium concentration.
