Complexes of aminobenzylamines. part II. Complexes ofo-aminobenzylamine with palladium(II) and platinum(II)

Summary The reactions of K₂[MX₄] (M = Pd^II or Pt^II and X = Cl or Br) witho-aminobenzylamine (o-aba) have been studied in neutral aqueous solutions. Two types of complexes were isolated from these studies: [MLX₂] and [ML₂]X₂. Elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, i.r. and visible spectra suggest polymeric structures for [MLX₂] with the ligand,o-aba = L, acting as a bridge, and/or mononuclear structures for [ML₂]X₂.

Oxygenation of Co(II) Complexes with Tripodal Ligands

The kinetics of O₂-uptake of five-coordinated Co²⁺/tren complexes (tren = 2,2′, 2″-tris(2-aminoethyl)amine) have been studied extensively. The kinetics of formation of (tren)Co(O₂, OH)Co(tren)³⁺ exhibits two steps. The rate law of O₂-addition, the first step, was of the form: rate = (k[H⁺] + kK_a)/([H⁺] + K_a) [Co(tren)²⁺][O₂]. Second-order rate constants k = 220 ± 19 M ^?1s^?1 and k = 1.8 ± .035 · 10³M ^?1s^?1 agreed well from O₂-uptake and (stopped-flow) spectrophotometric measurements. The protonation constant of the hydroxo complex obtained by equlibrium measurements (spectrophotometric and by pH-titration) in anaerobic conditions (pK_a = 10.03) agreed well with that derived from kinetic data (p K_a = 9.93); k and k are about a factor 100 smaller than those for the pseudooctahedral Co(trien) (H₂O). This and the fact that several other Co(II) complexes with five-coordinated geometry do not exhibit oxygen affinity led to the proposal that the oxygenation mechanism for Co²⁺/tren complexes involves fast preequilibria between Co(tren) (H₂O)²⁺ and Co(tren) (H₂O) and only the latter is assumed to be reactive. The enhanced rate at high pH is explained by rate determining H₂O-exchange in the O₂-addition step and the ability of coordinated OH^? to labilize the neighbouring H₂O. This mechanism is furthermore supported by the formation of one kinetically preferred isomer of the peroxo-bridged dicobalt(III) complex (O₂ cis to the tertiary N-atom) and the large negative activation entropy (?30 eu). The second step is the intramolecular bridging reaction: is independent of [Co(tren)²⁺] and [O₂] but exhibits a pH-dependence of the form k₃ = k′₃[H + ]/(K_a + [H⁺]); k_?3 ( = 5 · 10^?5 s^?1) was determined independently and from the two rate constants the equilibrium constant was calculated as ≈ 10⁵. The ligand combination as in Co(tren)²⁺ was shown to provide an excellent balance to form a reversible oxygen carrier; possible reasons for this are discussed.     

Zinc(II) (o-hydroxybenzaldoximates) Complexes with Mono- and Bidentate Ligands

New complexes:Zn(Hsalox)(ox), Zn(Hsalox)(NHPh), Zn(Hsalox)(Hsal) and Zn(Hsalox)₂(1,2-diMeim) have been synthesised as a result of a reaction of Zn(salox) and Zn(Hsalox)₂ (where: salox ^2–=OC₆H₄CHNO^2–, Hsalox ^–=OC₆H₄CHNOH^–) with 8-hydroxyquinoline (Hox), o-aminophenol (NH₂Ph), o-hydroxybenzoic acid (H₂Sal) and 1,2-dimethylimidazole (1,2-diMeim). Chemical, X-ray and thermal analyses of the complexes and their sinters have been carried out. Thermal decomposition pathways have been postulated for the complexes. The mixtures about not definite composition have been obtained as a result of a reaction of zinc(o-hydroxybenzaldoximates) with imidazole(Him) and 4-methylimidazole (4-MeHim). This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Complexes of palladium (II) with L-proline. Mixed L-prolinato nucleoside complexes of Palladium (II)

The reaction of Palladium (II) chloride and L-proline (ProH) in aqueous solution gave the dimeric complex, Pd(Pro)Cl₂, which was characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight, conductivity measurements and IR and NMR spectra. The complex, reacted further with the purine nucleosides inosine or guanosine (Nucl) and the complexes Pd(Pro)(Nucl-H⁺) were isolated from aqueous solution. The insolubility of these complexes suggested a rather polymeric structure in which the nucleoside bridges two adjacent palladium atoms through its N(7) and the exocyclic O(6) atoms. Reaction in dmso gave the complex Pd(Pro)(Nucl)Cl in which the nucleoside act as monodentate ligands with their N(7) atom as ligation site. In aqueous solutions these complexes are quantitatively transformed to the polymeric analogues with the liberation of HCl. The nucleoside adenosine (Ado) reacted in a different way giving only the dimeric complex [Cl(Pro)PdAdoPd(Pro)Cl] in which adenosine bridges two palladium atoms through its N(1) and N(7) atoms. Finally with the pyrimidine nucleoside cytidine (Cyd) the monomer Pd(Pro)(Cyd)Cl was isolated.     

Dinuclear Molybdenum(II) Complexes with Thioether Functionalized Silylamide Ligands

Treatment of molybdenum(II) acetate with thioether functionalized silylamides R₂Si(NLi-C₆H₄–2-SR')₂ leads to the formation of dinuclear Mo^II complexes [Mo₂{R₂Si(NC₆H₄-2-SR')₂}₂]. According to X-ray crystal structure analyses the complexes [Mo₂{Me₂Si(NC₆H₄-2-SMe)₂}₂] and [Mo₂{Ph₂Si(NC₆H₄-2-SPh)₂}₂] comprise a Mo₂-unit which is coordinated by two μ-κ-N,N' silylamide ligands. The coordination sphere around the molybdenum atoms consists of two amide nitrogen atoms and two thioether sulfur atoms in a distorted square-planar arrangement. The Mo-Mo distances are 211.0(1) and 211.7(1) pm, resp. In the complex [Mo₂{Ph₂Si(NC₆H₄-2-SMe)₂}₂] the silyl amide units act as tetradentate κ-N,N',S,S'chelating ligands and the Mo-Mo distance is 218.6(1) pm.     

Photocytotoxic Activity of Ruthenium(II) Complexes with Phenanthroline-Hydrazone Ligands

This paper reports on the synthesis and characterization of two new polypyridyl-hydrazone Schiff bases, (E)-N′-(6-oxo-1,10-phenanthrolin-5(6H)-ylidene)thiophene-2-carbohydrazide (L¹) and (E)-N′-(6-oxo-1,10-phenanthrolin-5(6H)-ylidene)furan-2-carbohydrazide (L²), and their two Ru(II) complexes of the general formula [RuCl(DMSO)(phen)(Lⁿ)](PF6). Considering that hydrazides are a structural part of severa l drugs and metal complexes containing phenanthroline derivatives are known to interact with DNA and to exhibit antitumor activity, more potent anticancer agents can be obtained by covalently linking the thiophene acid hydrazide or the furoic acid hydrazide to a 1,10-phenanthroline moiety. These ligands and the Ru(II) complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, electronic, vibrational, ¹H NMR, and ESI-MS spectroscopies. Ru is bound to two different N-heterocyclic ligands. One chloride and one S-bonded DMSO in cis-configuration to each other complete the octahedral coordination sphere around the metal ion. The ligands are very effective in inhibiting cellular growth in a chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line, K562. Both complexes are able to interact with DNA and present moderate cytotoxic activity, but 5 min of UV-light exposure increases cytotoxicity by three times.

Metal Complexes with Macrocyclic Ligands. Part XLI. Nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with mono-N-functionalized dithiadiazamacrocycles

Three N₂S₂ macrocycles ( 3, 10, 12 ) carrying an amino group as a pendant arm have been synthesized and their complexation properties towards Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺ studied. The crystal structures of the Cu²⁺ complexes with 10-methyl-1,4-dithia-7,10-diazacyclododecane-7-ethanamine ( 3 ) and 11-methyl-1,4-dithia-8,11-diazacyclotetradecane-8-ethanamine ( 10 ) show that, in both cases, the Cu²⁺ is pentacoordinated by the four donor atoms of the macrocycle and the amino group of the side chain. In aqueous solution, however, two forms of the complexes with stoichiometries [MLH] and [ML] (M = Cu²⁺ or Ni²⁺) have been observed. In [MLH], the amino group is protonated and does not bind to the metal ion, whereas in [ML] the amino group is bound, and a pentacoordinated geometry results. The pK_a values for the equilibrium [ML] + H⁺?[MLH]⁺ decrease in the order 12 > 10 > 3 , indicating that the 2-aminoethyl side chain binds better to the Cu²⁺ than the 3-aminopropyl side chain. Cyclic voltammetry for the Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ pair shows that the 2-aminoethyl pendant arm stabilizes the Cu²⁺ oxidation state, when the metal ion is in the 14-membered ring ( 10 ), whereas it stabilizes Cu⁺ for the 12-membered macrocycle ( 3 ).     

Synthesis and Characterization of Bridged Bimetallic Complexes. I. Copper(II) Complexes with Conjugated Diimine Ligands

A series of binucleating Uganda with fully conjugated π-systems have been synthesized. Homobinuclear copper(II) complexes of the form [(Cu(dien)ClO₄)₂L]-(ClO₄)₂, where dien is diethylenetriamine and L is binucleating ligand, were prepared. Mononuclear complexes, with structure similar to that of the preceeding compounds, [Cu(dien)L′(ClO₄)](ClO₄) were synthesized as reference compounds. The infrared spectra, elctronic spectra and magnetic properties were studied. The inductive effect, steric effect and the effect of the length of the conjugated π-system on the magnetic exchange interaction between the two copper ions are discussed. The electrochemical properties of these complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The copper ions showed the cooperative phenomena and a quasi-reversible sequential transfer of two electrons at the same potential.     

Formation of Oligo-Nuclear Carboxylate Nickel(II) Complexes with Nitrogen-Containing Ligands. Quantum-Chemical Simulation

Using the DFT method PBE0/6-31G(d, p) and taking into account the solvent, the formation of bi- and pentahedral Ni(II) complexes with carboxylate and N-containing ligands in the gas phase was studied, and ΔG° of their formation from simple compounds was estimated. The functional role of bridging groups and hydrogen bonds in the formation of polynuclear structures was revealed. A model of self-organization of penta-nuclear coordination compounds [Ni^II₅(O₂CR)₈L_2n(μ-OH)₂]⁰ from binuclear complex [Ni^II₂(O₂CR)₄L_n(μ-H₂O)]⁰ was proposed, into the structure of which mononuclear Ni^II cations are embedding and promote proton transfer from bridging aqua ligands.

The structure of trans-[Pd(ITMe)₂(SiMe₂Ph)Br] 2b has been determined in the solid state and displays a slightly distorted square-planar geometry with the two N-heterocyclic carbene ligands in a trans-configuration.
