Most of the benzyladenine and furfuryladenine derivatives inhibit tumor/cancer cell growth; their toxicity is lesser than the compounds used for the treatment of cancer now-a-days. Many cytokinin derivatives are tested for anticancer activity.

A series of transition metal complexes containing N6-benzyl/furfuryl aminopurines of formula [Mn(FAH)2(H2O)(Cl3)]2.Cl2(1), [Co(FAH)2(H2O)(Cl3)]2.Cl2(2), [Co(FAH)2(Cl4)]2 .[Co(FAH)2(H3O)(Cl3)].Cl2(3), [Ni(FAH)2(H2O)(Cl3)]2.Cl2. (H2O) (4), [Zn(BAH)Br3] (5) and [Cd2(BAH)2(μ-Br)4Br2]n(6) (where BAH and FAH benzyladeninium and furfuryladeninium cations respectively) have been synthesized and characterized. Crystal structures of (1-4) have similar distorted octahedral coordination geometry, while (5) and (6) have distorted tetrahedral geometry and octahedral geometries respectively. In (1-4) two halide ions and two cytokinin cations (BAH+/FAH+) are laterally coordinated to the metal ion. A water molecule and a halide ion are axially coordinated. But the coordination sphere of (5) consists of N7 coordinated benzyladeninium ion and three halide ions. The complex (6) is a coordination polymer bridged by bromide anions. A common notable feature in (1-4) is the presence of one or more lattice chloride anions. They help in a chain formation by N-H…Cl halide involving hydrogen bonding interactions in between the Hoogsteen site hydrogen.
Conclusions
The observed crystal structures emphasize the role of the halide ions in developing the supramolecular architectures by halide involving hydrogen bonding interactions. Also most of the reported cobalt cytokinin complexes possess tetrahedral coordination geometry, but some cobalt complexes have distorted octahedral coordination geometry, which are discussed and compared.
New hexa-coordinated Ru(III) complexes of the type [Ru(H2Pzdc)(EPh3)3X2] have been synthesized by reacting 3,5-pyrazole dicarboxylic acid (H3Pzdc) with the appropriate starting complexes [RuX3(EPh3)3] (where X = Cl or Br; E = P or As). The ligand behaves as a bidentate monobasic chelate. All the complexes have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, electronic and EPR) data. Single-crystal X-ray analysis of the complex [Ru(H2Pzdc)(PPh3)2Cl2]·C6H6·C2H5OH revealed that the coordination environment around the ruthenium center consists of an NOP2Cl2 octahedron. The planar ligand occupies the equatorial position along with two chlorine atoms, while the triphenylphosphine groups occupy the axial positions. The electrochemical behavior of the new complexes was studied using cyclic voltammetry. The new mononuclear ruthenium complexes are capable of acting as catalysts for the oxidation of alcohols. 相似文献
Nucleoproteins are naturally occurring biopolymers in which the hydroxy group of a serine, a threonine, or a tyrosine moiety is linked through a phosphodiester group to the 3'- or 5'-end of a nucleic acid. For the study of the biological phenomena in which nucleoproteins are involved, for example, viral replication, nucleopeptides embodying the characteristic linkage between the peptide chain and the oligonucleotide may serve as powerful tools. However, as a result of the multifunctionality and the pronounced acid and base lability of nucleopeptides, their synthesis requires the application of a variety of orthogonally stable blocking groups, which can be removed under the mildest conditions. We have developed a new mild enzymatic deprotection method, that is, the penicillin G acylase-catalyzed hydrolysis of the N-phenylacetoxybenzyloxycarbony (PhAcOZ) group, for the synthesis of nucleopeptides. We demonstrate the wide applicability of this method by coupling the N-terminally deprotected nucleopeptides 31 a-c with PhAcOZ-protected amino acids and subsequent removal of the N-PhAcOZ group from fully protected nucleotetrapeptides 32 a,b with penicillin G acylase. The reaction conditions are very mild (pH 6.8) so that no undesired side reaction such as cleavage of the nucleotide bond or beta-elimination of the nucleotide was observed. 相似文献
New hexa-coordinated Ru(II) complexes of the type [RuCl2(DMSO)2(diamine)] (diamine = o-phenylenediamine and ethylenediamine) have been prepared by reacting cis-[RuCl2(DMSO)4] with Schiff bases (H2sal-en, 1; H2nap-en, 2; H2sal-o-pdn, 3; H2nap-o-pdn, 4) in a 1:1 ratio. The ligands, which were expected to act as tetradentate (N2O2) chelates under the normal reaction conditions, were found to undergo hydrolytic cleavage to form the diamine and the corresponding aldehyde. All the complexes have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, electronic and1H NMR) data. Single-crystal X-ray analysis of the complex [RuCl2(DMSO)2(o-pndn)] revealed that the coordination environment around the ruthenium metal consists of a N2S2Cl2 octahedron. 相似文献

Microfluidic wet-chemical synthesis of nanoparticles is a growing area of research in chemical microfluidics, enabling the development of continuous manufacturing processes that overcome the drawbacks of conventional batch-based synthesis methods. The synthesis of ultra-small (<5 nm) metallic nanocrystals is an interesting area with many applications in diverse fields, but is typically very challenging to accomplish in a microfluidics-based system due to the use of a strong gas-evolving reducing agent, aqueous sodium borohydride (NaBH(4)), which causes uncontrolled out-gassing and bubble formation, flow disruption and ultimately reactor failure. Here we present a simple method, rooted in the concepts of multiphase mass transfer that completely overcomes this challenge-we simply inject a stream of inert gas bubbles into our channels that essentially capture the evolving gas from the reactive aqueous solution, thereby preventing aqueous dissolved gas concentration from reaching the solubility threshold for bubble nucleation. We present a simple model for coupled mass transfer and chemical reaction that adequately captures device behaviour. We demonstrate the applicability of our method by synthesizing ultra-small gold nanocrystals (<5 nm); the quality of nanocrystals thus synthesized is further demonstrated by their use in an off-chip synthesis of high-quality gold nanorods. This is a general approach that can be extended to a variety of metallic nanomaterials. 相似文献
