Synthesis,crystal structures and characterizations of three new copper(II) complexes including anti‐inflammatory diclofenac

Three new diclofenac‐based copper(II) complexes, namely tetrakis{μ‐2‐[2‐(2,6‐dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetato‐κ²O:O′}bis(methanol‐κO)copper(II), [Cu₂(μ‐dicl)₄(CH₃OH)₂] ( 1 ), bis{2‐[2‐(2,6‐dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetato‐κ²O,O′}bis(1‐vinyl‐1H‐imidazole‐κN³)copper(II), [Cu(dicl)₂(vim)₂] ( 2 ), and bis{2‐[2‐(2,6‐dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetato‐κ²O,O′}bis(1H‐imidazole‐κN³)copper(II), [Cu(dicl)₂(im)₂] ( 3 ) [dicl is diclofenac (C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂NO₂), vim is 1‐vinylimidazole (C₅H₆N₂) and im is imidazole (C₃H₄N₂)], have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT–IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. X‐ray diffraction analysis shows that complex 1 consists of dimeric units in which the dicl ligand exhibits a bidentate syn,syn‐μ₂ coordination mode linking two copper(II) centres. Complexes 2 and 3 have mononuclear units with the general formula [Cu(dicl)₂L₂] (L is vim or im) in which the Cu^II ions are octahedrally coordinated by two L and two dicl chelating ligands. The L and dicl ligands both occupy the trans positions of the coordination octahedron. The different coordination modes of dicl in the title complexes were revealed by Fourier transform IR (FT–IR) spectroscopy. The spin matching between the copper(II) centres in the dimeric [Cu₂(μ‐dicl)₄(CH₃OH)₂] units was also confirmed by magnetic data to be lower than the spin‐only value and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra. The thermal properties of the complexes were investigated by thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) techniques.     

Synthesis,characterization and crystal structure of ternary chloroacetate,dichloroacetate and trichloroacetate copper(II) complexes

Three binuclear ternary copper(II) chloroacetate complexes with OP(OMe)₃ were prepared, and the configurations of the copper(II) dichloroacetate and trichloroacetate complexes were converted from a square-planar structure into a binuclear cage structure during the reaction. The crystal structure of Cu₂(ClCH₂CO₂)₄[OP(OMe)₃]₂ were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The i.r. spectra show that the carboxylate groups behave as bridging bidentate ligands in Cu₂(ClCH₂CO₂)₄(H₂O)₂ (1), Cu₂(ClCH₂CO₂)₄[OP(OMe)₃]₂ (4), Cu₂(Cl₂CHCO₂)₄-[OP(OMe)₃]₂ (5) and Cu₂(Cl₃CCO₂)₄[OP(OMe)₃]₂ (6), and as monodentate ligands in Cu(Cl₂CHCO₂)₂(H₂O)₂ (2) and Cu(Cl₃CCO₂)₂(H₂O)₂ (3). The electronic reflectance spectra in the solid state suggest a square pyramidal coordination environment around the copper(II) atom in (1), (4), (5) and (6), and a square-planar coordination environment in (2) and (3). Room temperature X-band e.s.r. spectra of powdered samples studied indicate the presence of electron coupling of copper(II) ions in (1), (4), (5) and (6).     

Synthesis,crystal structure and biological properties of a cis‐dichloridobis(diimine)copper(II) complex

The mechanisms of interaction of inorganic complexes with DNA are important in the design and development of new metal‐based drug molecules. The limitations of cis‐platin have encouraged the design and development of new metal‐based target‐specific anticancer drugs having reduced side effects. The complex cis‐dichloridobis(1,2,5‐thiadiazolo[3,4‐f][1,10]phenanthroline‐κ²N¹,N¹⁰)copper(II), [CuCl₂(C₁₂H₆N₄S)₂], has been synthesized and characterized. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c. The covalent binding of the complex with DNA was studied by absorption spectroscopy. The anticancer activity of the complex on the Human Lung Carcinoma (A549) cell line was investigated by MTT assay. The complex exhibits higher toxicity than cis‐platin and induces an apoptotic mode of cell death.     

A new stepped tetranuclear copper(II) complex: synthesis,crystal structure and photoluminescence properties

Binuclear and tetranuclear copper(II) complexes are of interest because of their structural, magnetic and photoluminescence properties. Of the several important configurations of tetranuclear copper(II) complexes, there are limited reports on the crystal structures and solid‐state photoluminescence properties of `stepped' tetranuclear copper(II) complexes. A new Cu^II complex, namely bis{μ₃‐3‐[(4‐methoxy‐2‐oxidobenzylidene)amino]propanolato}bis{μ₂‐3‐[(4‐methoxy‐2‐oxidobenzylidene)amino]propanolato}tetracopper(II), [Cu₄(C₁₁H₁₃NO₃)₄], has been synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, FT–IR, solid‐state UV–Vis spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The crystal structure determination shows that the complex is a stepped tetranuclear structure consisting of two dinuclear [Cu₂(L )₂] units {L is 3‐[(4‐methoxy‐2‐oxidobenzylidene)amino]propanolate}. The two terminal Cu^II atoms are four‐coordinated in square‐planar environments, while the two central Cu^II atoms are five‐coordinated in square‐pyramidal environments. The solid‐state photoluminescence properties of both the complex and 3‐[(2‐hydroxy‐4‐methoxybenzylidene)amino]propanol (H₂L ) have been investigated at room temperature in the visible region. When the complex and H₂L are excited under UV light at 349 nm, the complex displays a strong blue emission at 469 nm and H₂L displays a green emission at 515 nm.
