Alternativ-Liganden. XXVI [1]. M(CO)4L-Komplexe (M  Cr,Mo, W) der Chelatliganden Me2ESiMe2(CH2)2E′Me2 (Me  CH3; E  P,As; E′  N,P, As)

Alternative Ligands. XXVI. M(CO)₄ L-Complexes (M ? Cr, Mo, W) of the Chelating Ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂ (Me ? CH₃; E ? P, As; E′ ? N, P, As) The reaction of M(CO)₄NBD (NBD = norbornadiene; M ? Cr, Mo, W) with the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂ yields the chelate complexes (CO)₄M[Me₂ESiMe₂]) for E,E′ ? P, As, but not for E and /or E′ ? N. The NSi group is not suited for coordination because of strong (p-d)π-interaction. In the case of the ligands with E ? P or As and E′ ? N chelate complexes can be detected in the reaction mixture, but isolable products are complexes with two ligands coordinated via the E donor group. The new compounds are characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, NMR, MS) investigations. The spectroscopic data are also used to deduce the coordinating properties of the ligands. X-ray diffraction studies of the molybdenum complexes (CO)₄Mo[Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂AsMe ₂] (E ? P, As) in accord with the observed coordination effects show only small differences between SiE and CE donor functions. Attempts to use the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂AsMe₂ (E ? P, As) for the preparation of Fe(CO)₃L complexes result in the fission of the SiE bonds and the formation of the binuclear systems Fe₂(CO)₆(EMe₂)₂ (E ? P, As) together with the disilane derivative [Me₂Si(CH₂)₂AsMe₂]₂.

Verbindungsbildung in den quasi-binären Systemen AcX4?MX2 (Ac = Th,U; M = Ca,Sr, Ba,Eu, Ge,Sn, Pb; X = Br,I)

Formation of Compounds in the Quasi-binary Systems AcX₄? MX₂ (Ac = Th, U; M = Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu, Ge, Sn, Pb; X = Br, I) T,x-phase diagrams of the systems ThI₄? SnI₂, ThI₄? PbI₂, ThI₄? CaI₂, and ThI₄? SrI₂ were established using thermoanalysis and x-ray methods. The only ternary compounds have a 1:1 composition. Further AcMX₆ compounds (Ac: Th, U; M: Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu, Ge, Sn, Pb; X: Br, I) were synthesized and their structures investigated. Four structure types are found depending on the temperature and the Ac/M combinations. The structures of γ-ThSnI₆ and β-ThSnI₆ were determined with single crystal methods as representatives of a whole series of isotypic compounds.     

Synthesis, Structure and Biological Activities of S-[α-（ 4-Methoxyphenylcarbonyl ）-2-（1,2,4-triazole-l-yl） ethyl-N, N-dime-thyldithiocarbamate

The title compound was prepared by reaction of N, N‐dimethyldithiocarbamate sodium with l‐bromo‐l‐(4‐methoxyphenylcarbonyl)‐2‐(1, 2, 4‐triazole‐l‐yl) ethane. Its crystal structure has been determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis. The crystal belongs to triclinic with space group Pī, a = 0.7339(2) nm, b = 1.1032(2) nm, c = 1.1203(2) nm, a = 90.27(3)°, β = 102.03(3)°, γ = 104.91(3)°, Z=2, V = 0.8556(3) nm³, D_c = 1.360 g/cm³, μ =0.325 mm^?1, F(000)=368, final R₁ =0.0475. The planes of 4‐methoxybenzyl group and triazole ring are nearly perpendicular to each other. The dihedral angle is 83.97°. There is an obvious π‐π stacking interaction between the molecules in the crystal lattice. The results of biological test show that the title compound has fungicidal and plant growth regulating activities.     

Synthesis,Antimicrobial, Anticancer,PASS, Molecular Docking,Molecular Dynamic Simulations & Pharmacokinetic Predictions of Some Methyl β-D-Galactopyranoside Analogs

A series of methyl β-D-galactopyranoside (MGP, 1) analogs were selectively acylated with cinnamoyl chloride in anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide/triethylamine to yield 6-O-substitution products, which was subsequently converted into 2,3,4-tri-O-acyl analogs with different acyl halides. Analysis of the physicochemical, elemental, and spectroscopic data of these analogs revealed their chemical structures. In vitro antimicrobial testing against five bacteria and two fungi and the prediction of activity spectra for substances (PASS) showed promising antifungal functionality comparing to their antibacterial activities. Minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) tests were conducted for four compounds (4, 5, 6, and 9) based on their activity. MTT assay showed low antiproliferative activity of compound 9 against Ehrlich’s ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells with an IC₅₀ value of 2961.06 µg/mL. Density functional theory (DFT) was used to calculate the thermodynamic and physicochemical properties whereas molecular docking identified potential inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (6Y84). A 150-ns molecular dynamics simulation study revealed the stable conformation and binding patterns in a stimulating environment. In-silico ADMET study suggested all the designed molecules to be non-carcinogenic, with low aquatic and non-aquatic toxicity. In summary, all these antimicrobial, anticancer and in silico studies revealed that newly synthesized MGP analogs possess promising antiviral activity, to serve as a therapeutic target for COVID-19.     

Synthesis and Structure of a 2, 8, 9‐Trioxa‐3, 5, 7‐trisila‐1‐titanaadamantane

The title compound has been prepared from [Ti(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Cl₃] and cis‐cis‐(t‐BuSi(OH)—CH₂)₃ in hexane solution in the presence of Et₃N. The pale yellow complex was characterized by NMR and MS spectra, as well as by a crystal structure determination. The two crystallographic independent molecules in the triclinic unit cell (space group P1¯, No. 2, Z = 4) both have a nearly identical adamantane‐like TiO₃Si₃C₃ cage of approximate C_3v symmetry. The exocyclic C—C—C bond angles in the Cp‐ligand range from 123° to 129°. A quantum chemical calculation of the free molecule predicts this range to be 124° to 127°. The arrangement of the molecules in the crystal is characteristic for an offset face‐to‐face ππ stacking of the aromatic η⁵‐C₅Me₅ rings.
