Synthese und Struktur von Ammin- und Amidokomplexen des Iridiums

Synthesis and Structure of Ammine and Amido Complexes of Iridium The reaction of (NH₄)₂[IrCl₆] with NH₄Cl at 300 °C in a sealed glass ampoule yields the iridium(III) ammine complex (NH₄)₂[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅], which crystallizes isotypically with K₂[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅] in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with Z = 4, and a = 1350.0(2); b = 1028.5(3); c = 689.6(2) pm. The reaction of (NH₄)₂[IrCl₆] with NH₃ at 300 °C, however, gives the already known [Ir(NH₃)₅Cl]Cl₂ beside a small amount of [Ir(NH₃)₄Cl₂]Cl₂. In pure form [Ir(NH₃)₅Cl]Cl₂ is obtained by ammonolysis of (NH₄)₂[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅] at 300 °C with NH₃. [Ir(NH₃)₄Cl₂]Cl₂ crystallizes triclinic (P1, Z = 1, a = 660,2(3); b = 680,4(3); c = 711,1(2) pm; α = 103,85(2)°, β = 114,54(3)°, γ = 112,75(2)°). The structure contains Cl^– anions and [Ir(NH₃)₄Cl₂]²⁺ cations with a trans position of the Cl atoms. Upon reaction of [Ir(NH₃)₅Cl]Cl₂ with Cl₂ one ammine ligand is eliminated yielding [Ir(NH₃)₄Cl₂]Cl, which is transformed to orthorhombic [Ir(NH₃)₄(OH₂)Cl]Cl₂ (Pnma, Z = 4, a = 1335,1(3); b = 1047,9(2); c = 673,4(2) pm) by crystallization from water. In the octahedral complex [Ir(NH₃)₄(OH₂)Cl]²⁺ the four ammine ligands have an equatorial position, whereas the Cl atom and the aqua ligand are arranged axial. Oxidation of (NH₄)₂[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅] with Cl₂ at 330 °C affords the tetragonal Ir^IV complex (NH₄)[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅] (P4nc, Z = 2, a = 702.68(5); c = 912.89(9) pm). Its structure was determined using the powder diagram. Oxidation of (NH₄)₂[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅] with Br₂ in water, on the other hand, gives (NH₄)₂[IrBr₆] crystallizing in the K₂[PtCl₆] type. Oxidation of (PPh₄)₂[Ir(NH₃)Cl₅] with PhI(OAc)₂ in CH₂Cl₂ affords the Ir^V amido complex (PPh₄)[Ir(NH₂)Cl₅].     

N,N-Dimethylglycinatokomplexe von Platin(IV)

N,N -Dimethylglycinato Complexes of Platinum(IV) The aquapentachloroplatinic acid (H₃O)-[PtCl₅(H₂O)] · 2(18-cr-6) · 6 H₂O ( 1 ) reacts with N,N-dimethylglycine (Me₂glyH) to give cis-[PtCl₂(N,O-Me₂gly)₂] · (18-cr-6) ( 6 ) and (Me₂glyH₂)[PtCl₄(N,O-Me₂gly)] ( 7 ). Complexes 6 and 7 are characterized by microanalysis, ¹H-NMR and IR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray structure analysis. In both complexes the N,N-dimethylglycinato ligands are N,O-coordinated. In 6 , the amino groups are mutually trans and the carboxylato groups are cis (configuration index: OC-6–22). In the crystal, there are only weak C–H…O interactions between the N-methyl groups of the [PtCl₂(N,O-Me₂gly)₂] complex and the oxygen atoms of the crown ether (shortest C…O contacts: 3.10(2) Å and 3.21(2) Å). In the solid state, 7 exhibits strong cation-anion interactions: The carboxyl group of the cation (Me₂glyH₂)⁺ forms a strong O–H…O bridge to the exocyclic oxygen atom of the carboxylate group of the glycinato ligand (O…O 2.61(1) Å).     

Regioselective addition of Ti enolates to conjugated enones: New insights into the mechanism based on experimental and DFT investigation

The regioselective addition mechanism of the Ti(IV) enolates derived from α-diazo-β-keto carbonyl compounds and α-diazo-β-keto phosphonates to conjugated enones has been studied on the basis of a hypothetical bridging chloride-controlled theory, by density functional theory (DFT), and experimentally. The DFT results indicate that, for the Ti(IV) enolate 3 derived from α-diazo-β-keto carbonyl compounds, the free energy of the bridging chloride-controlled 1,2-addition transition state is 2.4 kcal/mol higher than that of 1,4-addition, and the calculated enthalpies of 1,2-addition is 4.36 kcal/mol more than that of 1,4-addition. For the Ti(IV) enolate 4 derived from α-diazo-β-keto phosphonates, in contrary, the free energy of the bridging chloride-controlled 1,2-addition transition state is 1.1 kcal/mol lower than that of 1,4-addition, and the calculated enthalpy of 1,2-addition is 3.46 kcal/mol less than that of 1,4-addition. Our findings demonstrate that the nucleophilic addition of these Ti(IV) enolates to conjugated enones was carried out not only kinetically but also irreversibly for the first time.     

Multispectroscopic DNA interaction and Docking studies

Two new water soluble oxovanadium(IV) complexes with formulae Na[VO(his)(met)SO₄] (1) and Na[VO(gly)(met)SO₄] (2), (gly=glycine his=histidine, and met=metformin) were synthesized and characterized by LCMS, UV‐Visible absorption, infrared spectra, magnetic moment, elemental analysis, thermal analysis and electronic spectral studies. The metal center was found in an octahedral geometry. DNA binding interaction of these complexes with CT DNA has been explored by UV‐Visible absorption, fluorescence, viscosity measurements and cleavage studies. Finally the binding of the complexes with CT‐DNA could be surface binding, mainly in the groove binding. The complexes were docked in to B‐DNA sequence, 5’(D*AP*CP*CP*GP*AP*CP*GP*TP*CP*GP*GP*T)‐3’ retrieved from protein data bank (PDB ID: 423D), using Discovery Studio 2.1 software.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic characterization,crystal structure,and anti-bacterial activity of diorganotin(IV) complexes with 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde-N(4)-ethylthiosemicarbazone

Three new diorganotin(IV) complexes, [Me₂Sn(BDET] (2), [Bu₂Sn(BDET)] (3), and [Ph₂Sn(BDET)] (4), were synthesized by reacting R₂SnCl₂ (R = Me, Bu, and Ph) with 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde-N(4)-ethylthiosemicarbazone [H₂BDET, (1)] in the presence of KOH in absolute methanol. The newly synthesized complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, UV–vis, FT-IR, ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopies. The molecular structure of 4 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. X-ray crystallography revealed that the doubly deprotonated O,N,S-tridentate thiosemicarbazone coordinates to tin(IV), resulting in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Their ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra support a five-coordinate tin(IV) in solution for all complexes, in accord with the solid-state X-ray structure determined for 4. Compounds 1–4 were evaluated for their antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella typhi. The results exhibited that 2–4 were active with comparable potency compared to the standard drug. Antibacterial studies also indicated that the complexes have potential for biological evaluation.     

Self-Assembly and X-Ray Crystal Structures of Novel Sn(IV)Porphyrin Phenolates

A series of complexes of the type [Sn(TTP)L₂] have been prepared by the condensation of [Sn(TTP)OH₂] (TTP = meso-tetratolylporphyrin) with a range of substituted phenols. The resulting complexes were characterised using ¹H NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. In each case, the condensation of the phenols with the Sn(IV)porphyrin in CDCl₃ solution is slow (h) but essentially quantitative. The slow kinetics of the formation of the diaxial phenolate complexes allows for the identification, by ¹H NMR spectroscopy, of three independent complexes within this process, namely an outer-sphere (H-bonded) complex as well as two independent phenolate complexes. The rate of condensation is in the order phenol 4-methoxyphenol > 4-nitrophenol and suggests a steric rather than pKa dependency.     

Synthesis,characterization of diorganotin (IV) schiff base complexes and their in vitro antitumor activity

Six novel diorganotin(IV) complexes have been synthesized in good yields by the reaction of R₂SnCl₂ (R= methyl, phenyl) with the Schiff base derived from salicylaldehyde and substituted thiosemicarbazide. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR and MS spectra. The structure of 2f was confirmed by single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The crystal of 2f is triclinic, space group P‐1 with a = 0.84996(12), b = 1.1204(2), c = 1.27597(12) nm, β = 81.908(9)°, V=1.0904(2) nm³, Z = 2, D_c= 1.551 g/cm³. The final discrepancy factors are R = 0.0211 and R_w = 0.0536 for 3710 independent reflections. Tests of antitumor activities in vitro showed that the obtained complexes had relative inhibition interaction to the KB, HCT‐8 and BEL‐7402 tumor cell lines.     

Determination of Immunoglobulin G by a Hemin–Manganese(IV) Oxide-Labeled Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is reported for human immunoglobulin G based on synthesized hemin–MnO₂ nanocomposite as the label. Enhanced sensitivity was obtained due to the increased catalytic activity of the hemin–MnO₂ nanocomposite toward 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine compared to hemin and MnO₂ alone. The synthesized hemin–MnO₂ nanocomposite was characterized by transmission electron microscopy and its catalytic activity to 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine was investigated by ultraviolet–visible absorption spectroscopy. After assembly of the sandwich-type immunoassay in the 96 wells of the plate the hemin–MnO₂-based label catalyzed 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine into blue compounds that were monitored by a plate reader. The absorbance increased with the concentration of human immunoglobulin G. The immunoassay displayed high sensitivity, a long linear dynamic range, and good selectivity for human immunoglobulin G. The immunoassay was also used for the determination of human immunoglobulin G in serum with favorable results. The developed assay combines the high throughput and low cost of ELISA with the simplicity of nanocomposite labeling and is suitable for application in clinical diagnosis.     

Multinuclear (Sn/Pd) complexes with disodium 2,2′-(dithiocarboxyazanediyl)diacetate hydrate; Synthesis,characterization and biological activities

Bimetallic chlorodi-/triorganotin(IV) derivatives of general formulas R₂(H₂O)SnLCSSSn(Cl)R₂ (R=Me: 1; Ph: 2) and R₃Sn(Na)LCSSSnR₃·H₂O (R=Bu: 3; Ph: 4) were prepared by reaction of iminodiacetic acid disodium salt hydrate (Na₂LH) with CS₂ and R₂SnCl₂/R₃SnCl in methanol. The reaction between Na₂LH, CS₂, and PdCl₂ produced [Na₂LCSS]₂Pd·2H₂O (5) which was treated with R₃SnCl to synthesize the heterobimetallic derivatives [R₃Sn(Na)LCSS]₂Pd·2H₂O (R=Me: 6; Ph: 7). The complexes were characterized by microanalysis, spectroscopic, and thermogravimetric analyses. Elemental analysis data, mass fragmentation, and thermal degradation patterns supported the molecular composition of the complexes. FT-IR data indicated monodentate binding of carboxylate while a chelating coordination mode of the dithiocarboxylate was verified in the solid state. A five-coordinate tin(IV) was demonstrated in the solid state. In solution, a tetrahedral/trigonal bipyramidal configuration around Sn(IV) and a square planar geometry of Pd(II) was indicated by multinuclear NMR (¹H and ¹³C) and UV-visible studies. The Pd(II) derivatives showed interaction with salmon sperm-DNA and caused an inhibition of alkaline phosphatase (ALPs). The antibacterial/antifungal potential of the coordination products varied with the nature of incorporated metal and a substitution pattern at tin(IV); the palladium metallation decreased the antimicrobial activities. The triorganotin(IV) products exhibited more powerful action against bacteria/fungi as compared to their diorganotin(IV) counterparts. The complexes displayed sufficiently lower hemolytic effects in vitro as compared to triton X-100 and slightly higher than PBS.     

Incorporation of Sulfate or Selenate Groups into Oxotellurates(IV): I. Calcium,Cadmium, and Strontium Compounds

Seven new mixed oxochalcogenate compounds in the systems M^II/X^VI/Te^IV/O/(H), (M^II = Ca, Cd, Sr; X^VI = S, Se) were obtained under hydrothermal conditions (210 °C, one week). Crystal structure determinations based on single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction data revealed the compositions Ca₃(SeO₄)(TeO₃)₂, Ca₃(SeO₄)(Te₃O₈), Cd₃(SeO₄)(Te₃O₈), Cd₃(H₂O)(SO₄)(Te₃O₈), Cd₄(SO₄)(TeO₃)₃, Cd₅(SO₄)₂(TeO₃)₂(OH)₂, and Sr₃(H₂O)₂(SeO₄)(TeO₃)₂ for these phases. Peculiar features of the crystal structures of Ca₃(SeO₄)(TeO₃)₂, Ca₃(SeO₄)(Te₃O₈), Cd₃(SeO₄)(Te₃O₈), Cd₃(H₂O)(SO₄)(Te₃O₈), and Sr₃(H₂O)₂(SeO₄)(TeO₃)₂ are metal‐oxotellurate(IV) layers connected by bridging XO₄ tetrahedra and/or by hydrogen‐bonding interactions involving hydroxyl or water groups, whereas Cd₄(SO₄)(TeO₃)₃ and Cd₅(SO₄)₂(TeO₃)₂(OH)₂ crystallize as framework structures. Common to all crystal structures is the stereoactivity of the Te^IV electron lone pair for each oxotellurate(IV) unit, pointing either into the inter‐layer space, or into channels and cavities in the crystal structures.
