Studies on Biologically Potent Tetraazamacrocyclic Complexes of Bivalent Tin

Fourteen- to eighteen-membered tetraamide macrocyclic ligands N 4 L 1 -N 4 L 4 have been prepared by the condensation of 1,2-diaminoethane or 1,3-diaminopropane with malonic or succinic acid in the presence of condensing reagents dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 4-dimethylaminopyridine. On reduction, these macrocyclic ligands give a new series of tetraazamacrocycles MacL 1 -MacL 4 which form complexes with tin(II) chloride. The ligands and their complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations, infrared and 1 H NMR spectral studies. The hexacoordinated state for tin has been confirmed by spectral studies. An octahedral geometry for these complexes has been proposed as the binding sites are the nitrogen atoms of the macrocycles. On the basis of the chemical composition the representation of the complexes as [Sn(MacL n )Cl 2 ] (n = 1-4) has been established. The ligands and their complexes also have been screened for their antifungal and antibacterial activities and the findings have been reported and explained.     

Synthesis of 2-(Triazolyl,Oxadiazolyl, and Pyrazolyl) Substituted 1,5-Benzothiazepin-S,S-Dioxide Derivatives of Potential Medicinal Interest

Abstract

The synthetic potential of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b] [1,5]thiazepine-1,1,4-trione-2-carbohydrazide (5) which resulted from ethyl-4-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b] [1,5]thiazepine-2-carboxylate (3), on its oxidation with H₂O₂/AcOH followed by treatment with NH₂NH₂.H₂O, was exploited to provide an access to 2-triazolo, 2-oxadiazolo, and 2-pyrazolo substituted derivatives of 1,5-benzothiazepin-4-oxo-1,1-dioxides (6–10), respectively.     

Efficient and Green Syntheses of 12-Aryl-2,3,4,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]xanthene-1,6,11-triones in Water and Task-Specific Ionic Liquid

Facile and convenient one-pot cascade/tandem approaches for the syntheses of privileged medicinal scaffolds, 12-aryl-2,3,4,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]xanthene-1,6,11-trione derivatives, have been reported under extremely mild reaction conditions using a catalytic amount of H₂SO₄ in water or in the presence of the acidic ionic liquid bmim[HSO₄], which could be recycled.

Organotin(IV) Carboxylates of Substituted α‐Cinnamic Acid,RnSn(OCOC(R2)=CHR1)4 – n: Synthesis,Spectroscopic Characterization and Biological Evaluation

Di‐ and triorganotin(IV) carboxylates, R_nSn(OCOC(R²)=CHR¹)_4–n (n = 2 and 3; R = Me, Et, n‐Bu, Ph; R¹ = 3‐CH₃O‐4‐OHC₆H₃, R² = C₆H₅) were prepared by reacting the corresponding organotin(IV) chloride with the silver salt of the (E)‐3‐(4‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxyphenyl)‐2‐phenylpropenoic acid. The title compounds were investigated and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (FT‐IR), multinuclear (¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn) NMR, and mass spectrometry, and possible structures were proposed. The complexes and ligand acid ( HL ) have been evaluated in vitro against various bacteria and fungi. The results noticed during the biocidal activity screenings proved their in vitro biological potential. They were also tested for cytotoxicity.

Self‐Assembly of DNA–Oligo(p‐phenylene‐ethynylene) Hybrid Amphiphiles into Surface‐Engineered Vesicles with Enhanced Emission

Surface‐addressable nanostructures of linearly π‐conjugated molecules play a crucial role in the emerging field of nanoelectronics. Herein, by using DNA as the hydrophilic segment, we demonstrate a solid‐phase “click” chemistry approach for the synthesis of a series of DNA–chromophore hybrid amphiphiles and report their reversible self‐assembly into surface‐engineered vesicles with enhanced emission. DNA‐directed surface addressability of the vesicles was demonstrated through the integration of gold nanoparticles onto the surface of the vesicles by sequence‐specific DNA hybridization. This system could be converted to a supramolecular light‐harvesting antenna by integrating suitable FRET acceptors onto the surface of the nanostructures. The general nature of the synthesis, surface addressability, and biocompatibility of the resulting nanostructures offer great promises for nanoelectronics, energy, and biomedical applications.     

Syntheses and characterization of a new class of vanadia precursors of oxime-modified oxovanadium(V) isopropoxide,crystal and molecular structure of [VO{ONC10H16}3]

Modification of [VO(OPrⁱ)₃] with oximes in different molar ratios, yielded new class of vanadia precursors, [VO{OPrⁱ}_3?n{L}_n] {where, n = 1–3 and LH = C₉H₁₆C=NOH (1–3) and (CH₃)₂C=NOH (4–6)}.All the products are yellow in colour. (1) and (2) are liquid/viscous liquid, while others are solids. Molecular weight measurements of all these derivatives and the ESI-mass spectral studies of (1), (2), (3) and (5) indicate their monomeric nature. ¹H and ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectra suggest that the oximato moieties are monodentate in solution which was further confirmed by the ⁵¹V NMR signals, appeared in the region expected for tetra-coordinated oxo-vanadium atoms. On ageing, a disproportionation reaction occurs in (1) and some crystals appeared. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of the crystals obtained from (1) as well as from (3) were found to be the same and indicate the presence of side-on {dihapto η ²-(N, O)} binding modes of the oximato ligands, leading to the formation of seven coordination environment around the vanadium atom. Thermogravimetric curve of (1) exhibits multi-step decomposition with the formation of V₂O₅ as the final product at ~850 °C. Sol–gel transformation of (3) yielded (a) VO₂ sintered at 300 °C and (b) V₂O₅ at 600 °C. Similarly, sol–gel transformations of (1) and (2) yielded V₂O₅ (c) and (d) at 600 °C, respectively. Formation of monoclinic phase in (a) and orthorhombic phase in (b), (c) and (d) were confirmed by powder XRD patterns.     

Syntheses and characterization of a new class of zirconia precursors of oxime-modified zirconium(IV) isopropoxide

Some oxime modified complexes of the type [Zr{OPrⁱ}_4?n{L}_n] {where, n = 1–4 and LH=(CH₃)₂C=NOH (1–4) and C₉H₁₆C=NOH (5–8)} have been synthesized by the reaction of [Zr(OPrⁱ)₄·PrⁱOH] with oximes, in anhydrous refluxing benzene. These synthesized complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, ESI-mass, FT-IR and NMR (¹H and ¹³C{¹H}) spectral studies. The ESI-mass spectral studies indicate dimeric nature for [Zr{OPrⁱ}₂{ONC(CH₃)₂}₂] (2), [Zr{OPrⁱ}₃{ONC₁₀H₁₆}] (5) and [Zr{OPrⁱ}{ONC₁₀H₁₆}₃] (7) and monomeric nature for [Zr{ONC₁₀H₁₆}₄] (8). Oximato ligands appear to bind the zirconium in side on manner in all the complexes. Thermogravimetric curves of (2) and (8) exhibit multi-step decomposition with the formation of ZrO₂, under nitrogen atmosphere. Sol–gel transformations of precursors (5), (6), (7) and (8) in organic medium, yielded nano-sized tetragonal phase of zirconia samples (a), (b), (c) and (d), respectively, on sintering at ~600 °C. All these samples were characterized by Powder XRD patterns and EDX analyses. Surface morphologies of these samples were investigated by SEM images.
