Transition metal complexes with Girard reagent-based ligands

The ligand, salicylaldehyde Girard-T hydrazonium chloride, [H₂SalGT]Cl (1), and two complexes [Cu(HSalGT)X₂]·H₂O (X = Br(2); Cl(3)) were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. In the two isostructural complexes, the Cu(II) is located in a square-pyramidal environment, with the chelating ligand and one halogen atom in the basal plane and the second halogen in the apical position. The most apparent structural difference between the 1 and its complexes 2 and 3 is the orientation of the N(CH₃)₃ group: in 1, it is practically coplanar to the rest of the molecule, while in 2 and 3 it is oriented to the side of the axially bonded halogen, which can be explained by the C–H…X intramolecular interactions. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility and electronic absorption spectra.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and ferro-magnetic interaction of a binuclear copper(II) complex with the 1,4-dinitro-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylatobenzenic anion as bridging ligand

A binuclear complex [Cu₂(DTB)(DMF)₄(H₂O)]·2DMF (DTB = 1,4-dinitro-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylatobenzenic anion; DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined by X-ray crystallography. In the complex Cu ion is located in a distorted square pyramidal environment with two oxygen atoms O(1) and O(3) from two carboxylate groups, another two oxygen atoms O(7) and O(8) from terminal ligands of two DMF molecules, and a fifth coordinated oxygen atom O(9) from the terminal ligand of one H₂O molecule, in which the O(8) atom is situated in the apex of the pyramid. DTB as bridging ligand coordinates two Cu ions through its four carboxylate groups. The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility of the complex was measured in the 5–300 K range. The magnetic coupling parameter is consistent with a ferromagnetic exchange between the two copper(II) centers and the data fit a binuclear magnetic exchange model based on the Hamiltonian operator ( = -2J₁₂, ₁ = ₂= 1/2), giving the ferromagnetic coupling parameter of 2J = 1.80 cm^{- 1}. This is the first example of a tetracarboxylatobenzenic bridging complex exhibiting ferromagnetic interaction.     

Reactions of sulfur(IV) with an octahedral manganese(IV) complex of 1,8-bis(2-hydroxy benzamido)-3,6-diaza octane: the role of phenolate–amide–amine coordination

The Mn^IV complex of tetra-deprotonated 1,8-bis(2-hydroxybenzamide)-3,6-diazaoctane (Mn^IVL) engrossed in phenolate-amido-amine coordination is reduced by HSO₃⁻ and SO₃²⁻ in the pH range 3.15–7.3 displaying biphasic kinetics, the Mn^IIIL⁻ being the reactive intermediate. The Mn^IIIL⁻ species has been characterized by u.v.–vis. spectra {λ _max, (ε, dm³ mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹): 285(15 570), 330 sh (7570), 469(6472), 520 sh (5665), pH=5.42}. SO₄²⁻ was the major oxidation product of S^IV; dithionate is also formed (18 ± 2% of [Mn^IV]_T) which suggests that dimerisation of SO₃^−• is competitive with its fast oxidation by Mn^IV/III. The rates and activation parameters for Mn^IVL + HSO₃⁻ (SO₃²⁻) → Mn^IIIL⁻; Mn^IIIL⁻ + HSO₃⁻ (SO₃²⁻) → Mn^IIL²⁻ are reported at 28.5–45.0 °C (I=0.3 mol dm⁻³, 10% (v/v) MeOH + H₂O). Reduction by SO₃²⁻ is ca. eight times faster than by HSO₃⁻ both for Mn^IVL and Mn^IIIL⁻. There was no evidence of HSO₃⁻/SO₃²⁻ coordination to the Mn centre indicating an outer sphere (ET) mechanism which is further supported by an isokinetic relationship. The self exchange rate constant (k₂₂) for the redox couple, Mn^IIIL⁻/Mn^IVL (1.5 × 10⁶ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ at 25 °C) is reported.

Photodynamic Therapy of 9L Gliosarcoma with Liposome-Delivered Photofrin

Abstract— The effect of Photofrin encapsulated in a liposome delivery vehicle for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of the 9L gliosarcoma and normal rat brain was tested. We hypothesized that the liposome vehicle enhances therapeutic efficacy, possibly by increasing tumor tissue concentration of Photofrin. Male Fisher rats bearing a 9L gliosarcoma were treated 16 days after intracerebral tumor implantation with either Photofrin in dextrose (n = 5) or Photofrin in liposome (n = 6). Nontumor-bearing animals were treated with Photofrin delivered either in dextrose (n = 4) or liposome (n = 4) vehicle. Tissue concentrations of Photofrin delivered either in dextrose (n = 4) or liposome (n = 4) vehicle were measured in tumor, brain adjacent to tumor and in normal brain tissue. Photofrin was administered (intraperitoneally) at a dose of 12.5 mg/kg and PDT (17 J/cm₂ of 632 nm light at 100 mW/cm₂) was performed 24 h after Photofrin administration. Brains were removed 24 h after PDT and stained with hematoxylin and eosin for analysis of cellular damage. The PDT using Photofrin in the liposome vehicle caused significantly more damage to the tumor ( P < 0.001) than did PDT with Photofrin in dextrose. The PDT of tumor with Photofrin delivered in liposomes caused a 22% volume of cellular necrosis, while PDT of tumor with Photofrin delivered in dextrose caused only scattered cellular damage. Photofrin concentration in tumors was significantly higher ( P = 0.021) using liposome (33.8 ± 18.9 μg/g) compared to dextrose delivery (5.5 ± 1.5 μg/g). Normal brain was affected similarly in both groups, with only scattered cellular necrosis. Our data suggest that the liposome vehicle enhances the therapeutic efficacy of PDT treatment of 9L tumors.
