This study investigated the stability of compounds of dental sealant materials in a salivary matrix. Various amounts of bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol A dimethacrylate (BIS-DMA) or triethylene-glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) were added to whole salivary samples, and stored at -70 degrees C or -20 degrees C for up to 4 months. In other experiments, four separate whole salivary or water samples with BIS-DMA (200 ng/ml) were incubated for 0, 1, 2, 4 or 24h at 37 degrees C. Levels of analytes were determined by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrophotometry (GC/MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). BPA was stable under all tested conditions. Samples originally containing BIS-DMA had high levels of BPA and almost no BIS-DMA after 4 months at -20 degrees C. Salivary samples incubated at 37 degrees C originally containing only BIS-DMA (200 ng/ml) demonstrated rapid decreases of BIS-DMA and increases of BPA. By 24h, the mean BIS-DMA concentration fell to 21.8 (25) ng/ml, while BPA increased to 100 (48) ng/ml. Only slight decreases in BIS-DMA and no BPA were present in the water samples incubated at 37 degrees C. BPA, BIS-DMA, and TEGDMA were stable if salivary samples were stored at -70 degrees C. Acidification of salivary samples prevented the breakdown of BIS-DMA. BIS-DMA is converted rapidly to BPA in the presence of whole saliva. This could account for the findings of BPA in clinical samples collected after the placement of certain sealant products. Decreasing salivary pH and temperature can slow this process and this method should be used for clinical studies of salivary BPA leached from restorative materials.

We report the syntheses and characterization of three solution-processable phen-oxy silicon phthalocyanines (SiPcs), namely bis-(3-methyl-phen-oxy)(phthalocyanine)silicon [(3MP)2-SiPc], C46H30N8O2Si, bis-(2-sec-butyl-phen-oxy)(phthalocyanine)silicon [(2secBP)2-SiPc], C44H24I2N8O2Si, and bis-(3-iodo-phen-oxy)(phthalocyanine)silicon [(3IP)2-SiPc], C52H42N8O2Si. Crystals grown of these compounds were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and the π-π inter-actions between the aromatic SiPc cores were studied. It was determined that (3MP)2-SiPc has similar inter-actions to previously reported bis-(3,4,5-tri-fluoro-phen-oxy)silicon phthalocyanines [(345 F)2-SiPc] with significant π-π inter-actions between the SiPc groups. (3IP)2-SiPc and (2secBP)2-SiPc both experienced a parallel stacking of two of the peripheral aromatic groups. In all three cases, the solubility of these mol-ecules was increased by the addition of phen-oxy groups while maintaining π-π inter-actions between the aromatic SiPc groups. The solubility of (2secBP)2-SiPc was significantly higher than other bis-phen-oxy-SiPcs and this was exemplified by the higher observed disorder within the crystal structure.

Cocrystallization of the bis(imidazole)/bis(benzimidazole) with a series of organic acids gave a total of eight molecular adducts with the compositions: (3,6-bis(imidazole-1-yl)pyridazine): (trichloroacetic acid)2(1) [(H2L1)2+ · (tca-)2, L1 = 3,6-bis(imidazole-1-yl)pyridazine, tca- = trichloroacetate], (bis(N-imidazolyl)methane): (suberic acid) (2) [(L2) · (H2suba), L2 = bis(N-imidazolyl)methane, H2suba = suberic acid], bis(N-imidazolyl)methane: (3-nitrophthalic acid): 3H2O (3) [(H2L2)2+ · (3-Hnpa-)2 · 3H2O, 3-Hnpa- = 3-nitro hydrogenphthalate], (bis(N-imidazolyl)butane)0.5: (4-nitrophthalic acid): H2O (4) [(H2L3)0.5+ · (4-Hnpa-)- · H2O, L3 = bis(N-imidazolyl)butane, 4-Hnpa- = 4-nitro hydrogenphthalate], (1-(3-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)propyl)-1H-benzimidazole): (3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid) (5) [(HL4) · (3,5-dns-), L4 = 1-(3-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)propyl)-1H-benzimidazole, 3,5-dns- = 3,5-dinitrosalicylate], (1-(3-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)propyl)-1H-benzimidazole): (3-nitrophthalic acid) (6) [(H2L4) · (3-npa2-), L4 = 1-(3-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)propyl)-1H-benzimidazole, 3-npa2-=3-nitrogenphthalate], (bis(N-imidazolyl)butane): (pamoic acid) (7) [(H2L3) · (pam), pam = pamoate], and (3,6-bis(imidazole-1-yl)pyridazine): (1,5-naphthalenedisulfonic acid) [(H2L1)2+ · (npda)2- = 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonate] (8). The eight adducts have been characterized by X-ray diffraction technique, infrared spectrum, and elemental analysis, and the melting points of all adducts were also reported. And their structural and supramolecular aspects are fully analyzed. The result reveals that among the eight investigated crystals both the end ring N in the bis(imidazole) moieties are protonated when the organic acids are deprotonated except 2, and 5, and the crystal packing is interpreted in terms of the strong ionic Nsbnd H⋯O H-bond between the imidazolium and the deprotonated acidic groups. Except the Nsbnd H⋯O H-bond, the Osbnd H⋯O H-bonds were also found at the salts 3, 4, 5, and 7, salt 5 has the additional Nsbnd H⋯N H-bond, the Nsbnd H⋯S H-bond was established at 8. Further analysis of the crystal packing of the adducts indicated that a different set of additional CHsbnd O/CH2sbnd O, CHsbnd Cl, CH-π/CH2-π, Clsbnd C, Clsbnd N, Osbnd O, O-π, OH-π, and π-π associations contribute to the stabilization and expansion of the total 3D frameworks. For the coexistence of the various weak interactions these structures had homo or hetero supramolecular synthons or both. Some supramolecular synthons, such as R12(4), R22(7), and R22(8) usually found in crystals of organic acids with imidazole unit, were again shown to be appeared in constructing most of these H-bond networks.

The reaction of [2-(Me(2)NCH(2))C(6)H(4)Se]M (M = Li, K) with the gold(phosphine) complexes [AuCl(PR(3))] gives the mononuclear gold-selenolate species [Au{SeC(6)H(4)(CH(2)NMe(2))-2}(PPh(3))] (1) or [Au{SeC(6)H(4)(CH(2)NMe(2))-2}(PPh(2)py)] (2), respectively. The treatment of the [2-(Me(2)NCH(2))C(6)H(4)Se]M with [Au(2)Cl(2)(mu-P-P)] [P-P = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm), bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe), 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf)] derivatives gives complexes with stoichiometry [Au(2){SeC(6)H(4)(CH(2)NMe(2))-2}(2)(mu-P-P)] [P-P = dppm (3), dppe (4), or dppf (5)]. These complexes exhibit a different structural framework, that is, 4 crystallizes as a chain polymer with intermolecular aurophilic bonding, while 5 shows an intramolecular Au(I)...Au(I) interaction. The gold(III) derivative Bu(4)N[Au(C(6)F(5))(3){SeC(6)H(4)(CH(2)NMe(2))-2}] (6) is obtained by reaction of [2-(Me(2)NCH(2))C(6)H(4)Se]K and Bu(4)N[AuBr(C(6)F(5))(3)], in a 1:1 molar ratio. These species exhibit luminescence which probably arises from a mixed (3)LMMCT and (3)MC excited state. The emission properties in these complexes seem to be useful for structural predictions and lead to the proposal of intermolecular aggregation in the solid state and frozen solution for complexes 1, 2, 3, whose crystal structures have not been elucidated.

The CoIII complex, (2), which is monoclinic at room tem­perature, presents a conservative single-crystal-to-single-crystal phase transition below 200 K, producing a triclinic twin. The transition, which involves a conformational change in one of the nBu groups of the cation, is reversible and can be cycled. Both end phases have been characterized structurally and the system was also characterized structurally in a two-phase inter­mediate state, using single-crystal diffraction techniques, with both the monoclinic and triclinic phases present. Thermal analysis allows a rough estimate of the small energy content, viz. 0.25 kJ mol−1, for both the monoclinic-to-triclinic transformation and the reverse transition, in agreement with the nature of the structural changes involving only the nBu4N+ cation.

Transition metal complexes of oxazolinylboranes and cyclopentadienyl-bis(oxazolinyl)borates: Catalysts for asymmetric olefin hydroamination and acceptorless alcohol decarbonylation

DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI.GOV)

Manna, Kuntal

The research presented and discussed in this dissertation involves the synthesis of transition metal complexes of oxazolinylboranes and cyclopentadienyl-bis(oxazolinyl)borates, and their application in catalytic enantioselective olefin hydroamination and acceptorless alcohol decarbonylation. Neutral oxazolinylboranes are excellent synthetic intermediates for preparing new borate ligands and also developing organometallic complexes. Achiral and optically active bis(oxazolinyl)phenylboranes are synthesized by reaction of 2-lithio-2-oxazolide and 0.50 equiv of dichlorophenylborane. These bis(oxazolinyl)phenylboranes are oligomeric species in solid state resulting from the coordination of an oxazoline to the boron center of another borane monomer. The treatment of chiral bis(oxazolinyl)phenylboranes with sodium cyclopentadienide provide optically active cyclopentadienyl-bis(oxazolinyl)borates H[PhB(C 5Hmore » 5)(Ox R) 2] [Ox R = Ox 4S-iPr,Me2, Ox 4R-iPr,Me2, Ox 4S-tBu]. These optically active proligands react with an equivalent of M(NMe 2) 4 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) to afford corresponding cyclopentadienyl-bis(oxazolinyl)borato group 4 complexes {PhB(C 5H 4)(Ox R) 2}M(NMe 2) 2 in high yields. These group 4 compounds catalyze cyclization of aminoalkenes at room temperature or below, providing pyrrolidine, piperidine, and azepane with enantiomeric excesses up to 99%. Our mechanistic investigations suggest a non-insertive mechanism involving concerted C-N/C-H bond formation in the turnover limiting step of the catalytic cycle. Among cyclopentadienyl-bis(oxazolinyl)borato group 4 catalysts, the zirconium complex {PhB(C 5H 4)(Ox4 S-iPr,Me2) 2}Zr(NMe 2) 2 ({S-2}Zr(NMe 2) 2) displays highest activity and enantioselectivity. Interestingly, S-2Zr(NMe 2) 2 also desymmetrizes olefin moieties of achiral non-conjugated aminodienes and aminodiynes during cyclization. The cyclization of aminodienes catalyzed by S-2Zr(NMe 2) 2 affords diastereomeric mixture of cis and trans cylic amines with high diasteromeric ratios and excellent enantiomeric excesses. Similarly, the desymmetrization of alkyne moieties in S-2Zr(NMe 2) 2-catalyzed cyclization of aminodiynes provides corresponding cyclic imines bearing quaternary stereocenters with enantiomeric excesses up to 93%. These stereoselective desymmetrization reactions are significantly affected by concentration of the substrate, temperature, and the presence of a noncyclizable primary amine. In addition, both the diastereomeric ratios and enantiomeric excesses of the products are markedly enhanced by N-deuteration of the substrates. Notably, the cationic zirconium-monoamide complex [ S-2Zr(NMe 2)][B(C 6F 5) 4] obtained from neutral S-2Zr(NMe 2) 2 cyclizes primary aminopentenes providing pyrrolidines with S-configuration; whereas S-2Zr(NMe 2) 2 provides R-configured pyrrolidines. The yttrium complex S-2YCH 2SiMe 3 also affords S-configured pyrrolidines by cyclization of aminopentenes, however the enantiomeric excesses of products are low. An alternative optically active yttrium complex {PhB(C 5H 4)(Ox 4S-tBu) 2}YCH 2SiMe 3 ({S-3}YCH 2SiMe 3) is synthesized, which displays highly enantioselective in the cyclization of aminoalkenes at room temperature affording S-configured cyclic amines with enantiomeric excesses up to 96%. A noninsertive mechanism involving a six-membered transition state by a concerted C-N bond formation and N-H bond cleavage is proposed for {S-3}YCH 2SiMe 3 system based on the kinetic, spectroscopic, and stereochemical features. In the end, a series of bis- and tris(oxazolinyl)borato iridium and rhodium complexes are synthesized with bis(oxazolinyl)phenylborane [PhB(Ox Me2) 2] n, tris(oxazolinyl)borane [B(Ox M) 3]n, and tris(4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazolinyl)phenylborate [To M] -. All these new and other known rhodium and iridium complexes were examined in acceptorless dehydrogenative decarbonylation of primary alcohols. The catalysts survey shows that the compound To MIr(η 4- C 8H 12) is the most active for the conversion of primary alcohols into alkane, H 2, and CO at 180 °C in toluene. Several aliphatic and aromatic primary alcohols are decarbonylated in the catalytic conditions. Furthermore, To MIr(η 4-C 8H 12) is also able to decarbonylate polyols such as ethylene glycol and glycerol to syngas (H 2 and CO) at 180 °C.« less

Anorg. Allg. Chem. (2015), 641, 941-947], based on room-temperature data. The current structure that was determined at 100 K reveals a lengthening of the c cell parameter compared with the published one due to the incorporation of the partial occupancy water mol-ecule. The title compound crystallizes in the tetra-gonal chiral space group P41212; the neutral [Mn(IV)(C12H15NO5)2] mol-ecule is situated on a crystallographic C 2 axis. The overall geometry about the central manganese ion is octa-hedral with an N2O4 core; each ligand acts as a meridional ONO donor. The coordination environment of Mn(IV) at 100 K displays a difference in one of the two Mn-O bond lengths, compared with the room-temperature structure. In the crystal, the neutral mol-ecules are stacked in a helical fashion along the c-axis direction.

The Ni(II) complexes [Ni([9]aneNS(2)-CH(3))(2)](2+) ([9]aneNS(2)-CH(3)=N-methyl-1-aza-4,7-dithiacyclononane), [Ni(bis[9]aneNS(2)-C(2)H(4))](2+) (bis[9]aneNS(2)-C(2)H(4)=1,2-bis-(1-aza-4,7-dithiacyclononylethane) and [Ni([9]aneS(3))(2)](2+) ([9]aneS(3)=1,4,7-trithiacyclononane) have been prepared and can be electrochemically and chemically oxidized to give the formal Ni(III) products, which have been characterized by X-ray crystallography, UV/Vis and multi-frequency EPR spectroscopy. The single-crystal X-ray structure of [Ni(III)([9]aneNS(2)-CH(3))(2)](ClO(4))(6)·(H(5)O(2))(3) reveals an octahedral co-ordination at the Ni centre, while the crystal structure of [Ni(III)(bis[9]aneNS(2)-C(2)H(4))](ClO(4))(6)·(H(3)O)(3)·3H(2)O exhibits a more distorted co-ordination. In the homoleptic analogue, [Ni(III)([9]aneS(3))(2)](ClO(4))(3), structurally characterized at 30 K, the Ni-S distances [2.249(6), 2.251(5) and 2.437(2) Å] are consistent with a Jahn-Teller distorted octahedral stereochemistry. [Ni([9]aneNS(2)-CH(3))(2)](PF(6))(2) shows a one-electron oxidation process in MeCN (0.2 M NBu(4)PF(6), 293 K) at E(½)=+1.10 V versus Fc(+)/Fc assigned to a formal Ni(III)/Ni(II) couple. [Ni(bis[9]aneNS(2)-C(2)H(4))](PF(6))(2) exhibits a one-electron oxidation process at E(½)=+0.98 V and a reduction process at E(½)=-1.25 V assigned to Ni(II)/Ni(III) and Ni(II)/Ni(I) couples, respectively. The multi-frequency X-, L-, S-, K-band EPR spectra of the 3+ cations and their 86.2% (61)Ni-enriched analogues were simulated. Treatment of the spin Hamiltonian parameters by perturbation theory reveals that the SOMO has 50.6%, 42.8% and 37.2% Ni character in [Ni([9]aneNS(2)-CH(3))(2)](3+), [Ni(bis[9]aneNS(2)-C(2)H(4))](3+) and [Ni([9]aneS(3))(2)](3+), respectively, consistent with DFT calculations, and reflecting delocalisation of charge onto the S-thioether centres. EPR spectra for [(61)Ni([9]aneS(3))(2)](3+) are consistent with a dynamic Jahn-Teller distortion in this compound. Copyright © 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

We study the thermo-physical and photoluminescence (PL) properties of cadmium-(bis)dodecylthiolate (Cd(C12H25S)2). Significant attention is drawn to characterization of Cd(C12H25S)2 by different methods. The laser-induced PLs of Cd(C12H25S)2 and Cd(C12H25S)2/(polymethyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites are studied. Samples of Cd(C12H25S)2/PMMA are synthesized by the polymerization method. Ultraviolet (UV)-pulsed laser irradiation of the samples under relatively small fluences leads to the formation of induced PL with the maximum near the wavelength of 600 nm. This process can be attributed to the transformation of Cd(C12H25S)2 within the precursor grains. Another PL peak at 450–500 nm, which appears under the higher fluences, relies on the formation of CdS complexes with a significant impact of the polymer matrix. PMID:28793738

The title complex, trans-bis(dimethylformamide-κO)bis{N,N'-N'',N'''-tetra-tert-butyl[oxybis(phosphonic diamide-κO)]}manganese(II) dichloride dihydrate, [Mn(C16H40N4O3P2)2(C3H7NO)2]Cl2·2H2O, is the first example of a bis-chelate amido-pyrophosphate (pyrophosphoramide) complex containing an O[P(O)(NH)2]2 fragment. Its asymmetric unit contains half of the complex dication, one chloride anion and one water molecule. The Mn(II) atom, located on an inversion centre, is octahedrally coordinated, with a slight elongation towards the monodentate dimethylformamide ligand. Structural features of the title complex, such as the P=O bond lengths and the planarity of the chelate ring, are compared with those of previously reported complexes with six-membered chelates involving the fragments C(O)NHP(O), (X)NP(O) [X = C(O), C(S), S(O)2 and P(O)] and O[P(O)(N)2]2. This analysis shows that the six-membered chelate rings are less puckered in pyrophosphoramide complexes containing a P(O)OP(O) skeleton, such as the title compound. The extended structure of the title complex involves a linear aggregate mediated by N-H...O and N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds, in which the chloride anion is an acceptor in two additional O-H...Cl hydrogen bonds.

The isomeric derivatives 1,2-bis-(iodo-meth-yl)benzene, (I), and 1,3-bis-(iodo-meth-yl)benzene (II), both C8H8I2, were prepared by metathesis from their di-bromo analogues. The ortho-derivative, (I), lies about a crystallographic twofold axis that bis-ects the C-C bond between the two iodo-methyl substituents. The packing in (I) relies solely on C-H⋯I hydrogen bonds supported by weak parallel slipped π-π stacking inter-actions [inter-centroid distance = 4.0569 (11) Å, inter-planar distance = 3.3789 (8) Å and slippage = 2.245 Å]. While C-H⋯I hydrogen bonds are also found in the packing of (II), type II, I⋯I halogen bonds [I⋯I = 3.8662 (2) Å] and C-H⋯π contacts feature prominently in stabilizing the three-dimensional structure.

The mol­ecular structure of the title compound, [Bi2(C11H16N)4(CO3)], consists of a symmetrically bridging carbonato group which binds two [2-Et2NCH2C6H4]2Bi units that are crystallographically related via a twofold rotation axis bis­ecting the carbonate group. The two Bi atoms and two of the C atoms directly bonded to bis­muth are quasi-planar [deviations of 0.323 (1) and 0.330 (9)Å for the Bi and C atoms, respectively] with the carbonate group. The remaining two ligands are in a trans arrangement relative to the quasi-planar (CBi)2CO3 system. The metal atom is strongly coordinated by the N atom of one pendant arm [Bi—N = 2.739 (6) Å], almost trans to the O atom, while the N atom of the other pendant arm exhibits a weaker intra­molecular inter­action [Bi⋯N = 3.659 (7) Å] almost trans to a C atom. If both these intra­molecular N→Bi inter­actions per metal atom are considered, the overall coordination geometry at bis­muth becomes distorted square-pyramidal [(C,N)2BiO cores] and the compound can be described as a hypervalent 12-Bi-5 species. Additional quite short intra­molecular Bi⋯O inter­actions are also present [3.796 (8)–4.020 (9) Å]. Inter­molecular associations through weak η6⋯Bi inter­actions [Bi⋯centroid of benzene ring = 3.659 (1) Å] lead to a ribbon-like supra­molecular association. PMID:21522836

The 2,2'-bis(methylene)biphenyl bridged bis(diketonate) (Tol(2)Bob)Ti(IV) fragment is resolved by reaction of the isopropoxide complex with (R)-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol, which selectively forms (S,Δ)-(Tol(2)Bob)Ti(R-BINOL). The binaphtholate ligand can be cleaved from titanium by careful treatment with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid to give (S,Δ)-(Tol(2)Bob)Ti(OTf)(2), which has a half-life toward racemization of at least 34 h at 51 °C. Racemization of the (Tol(2)Bob)Ti(IV) fragment is strongly accelerated under protic conditions, probably due to protonolysis of one of the diketonate ligands. Analogous optically active titanium bis(diketonates) can also be prepared by using an optically active 2,2'-bis(methylene)-1,1'-binaphthyl bridged bis(diketonate) ligand, Tol(2)Bobbinap, prepared from (R)-BINOLH2. Complexation of (R)-Tol(2)BobbinapH(2) with Ti(OiPr)(4) gives only a single diastereomer with the Λ configuration at titanium. The bis(diketonate)titanium(IV) fragment gives rise to characteristic signals in circular dichroism spectra which can be used to identify the configuration at the metal centre.

Phenolic bis Mannich bases having the chemical structure of 1-[3,5-bis-aminomethyl-4-hydroxyphenyl]-3-(4-halogenophenyl)-2-propen-1-ones (1a-c, 2a-c, 3a-c) were synthesized (Numbers 1, 2, and 3 represent fluorine, chlorine, and bromine bearing compounds, respectively, while a, b, and c letters represent the compounds having piperidine, morpholine, and N-methyl piperazine) and their cytotoxic and carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) enzyme inhibitory effects were evaluated. Lead compounds should possess both marked cytotoxic potencies and selective toxicity for tumors. To reflect this potency, PSE values of the compounds were calculated. According to PSE values, the compounds 2b and 3b may serve as lead molecules for further anticancer drug candidate developments. Although the compounds showed a low inhibition potency toward hCA I (25-43%) and hCA II (6-25%) isoforms at 10 μM concentration of inhibitor, the compounds were more selective (1.5-5.2 times) toward hCA I isoenzyme. It seems that the compounds need molecular modifications for the development of better CA inhibitors.

The Co III complex, (2), which is monoclinic at room temperature, presents a conservative single-crystal-to-single-crystal phase transition below 200 K, producing a triclinic twin. The transition, which involves a conformational change in one of the n Bu groups of the cation, is reversible and can be cycled. Both end phases have been characterized structurally and the system was also characterized structurally in a two-phase intermediate state, using single-crystal diffraction techniques, with both the monoclinic and triclinic phases present. Thermal analysis allows a rough estimate of the small energy content, viz. 0.25 kJ mol -1 , for both the monoclinic-to-triclinic transformation and the reverse transition, in agreement with the nature of the structural changes involving only the n Bu 4 N + cation.

Some bis(thiourea) compounds have been reported to posses excellent performance in pharmaceutical and environmental fields because of their ability to form chelating complexes with various anions and metal ions. Structurally for carbonyl thiourea derivatives, to become a chelating agent, it must adopt cis-configuration. In the present study, four new bis(thiourea) derivatives namely N,N’-bis(o-fluorobenzamidothiocarbonyl)hydrazine (1), N,N’- bis(o-chloro-benzamidothiocarbonyl)hydrazine (2), N,N’-bis(o-nitrobenzamidothiocarbonyl)-hydrazine (3), and N,N’-bis(o-methylbenzamidothiocarbonyl)hydrazine (4) were successfully synthesized and characterized by CHNS microelemental analysis, FTIR, UV-Vis, and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. However chemical crystallography study showed that both thiourea moieties in compound (2) and (3) adopt trans geometry. Therefore they are potential monodentate ligand with two active moieties. DPPH radical scavenging experiment showed that compound (1), (2), and (4) exhibited higher antioxidant activity than ascorbic acid (Vitamin C).

Bond lengths indicate delocalization of charges on the tetra-zole rings for all three compounds.

Reaction of FcPPB with tris(norbornene)platinum(0) provided [Pt(FcPPB)] (1) in which the arylborane is η(3) BCC-coordinated. Subsequent reaction with CO and CNXyl (Xyl=2,6-dimethylphenyl) afforded [PtL(FcPPB)] {L=CO (2) and CNXyl (3)} featuring η(2) BC- and η(1) B-arylborane coordination modes, respectively. Reaction of 1 or 2 with H2 yielded [PtH(μ-H)(FcPPB)] in which the borane is bound to a hydride ligand on platinum. Addition of PhC2 H to [Pt(FcPPB)] afforded [Pt(C2 Ph)(μ-H)(FcPPB)] (5), which rapidly converted to [Pt(FcPPB')] (6; FcPPB'=[Fe(η(5) -C5 H4 PPh2 )(η(5) -C5 H4 PtBu{C6 H4 (BPh-CPh=CHPh-Z)-ortho}]) in which the newly formed vinylborane is η(3) BCC-coordinated.

The complexes 3a,b,d, and 5c and the isomers of 8e showed high catalytic activity (TOFs ranging from 22 to 4870 h(-1), TONs up to 24000) in the hydrogenation of monosubstituted olefins. For 8e(down) and 8e(up) a remarkable functional group tolerance and catalyst stability were noticed. Kinetic experiments revealed k(obs) to be first order in c(cat) and c(H(2)) and zeroth order in c(olefin). Mechanistic studies and DFT calculations suggest the catalysis to proceed along an Osborn-type catalytic cycle with olefin before H(2) addition. The unsaturated key intermediates [ReBrH(NO)(P∩P)] (2a-e) could be intercepted with MeCN as [ReBrH(MeCN)(NO)(P∩P)] (10a-d) complexes or isolated as dimeric μ(2)-(H)(2) complexes [{ReBr(μ(2)-H)(NO)(P∩P)}(2)] (9b and 9e). Variation of the bidentate ligand demonstrated a crucial influence of the (large)-bite-angle on the catalytic performance and reactivity of 3a,b,d, 5c, and 8e. © 2011 American Chemical Society

Seven crystalline organic acid-base adducts derived from 1,4-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)butane/1,2-bis(2-benzimidazolyl)-1,2-ethanediol and acidic components (picric acid, 2-hydroxy-5-(phenyldiazenyl)benzoic acid, 5-sulfosalicylic acid, oxalic acid, and 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonic acid) were prepared and characterized by the single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, IR, mp, and elemental analysis. All of the seven compounds are organic salts involving proton transfer from the acidic components to the bis(benzimidazole). For the salt 3, although a competing carboxyl group is present, it has been observed that only the proton at the -SO3H group is deprotonized rather than the H at the COOH. While in the salt 7, both COOH and SO3H were ionized to exhibit a valence number of -2. For 4, the oxalic acid existed as unionized molecule, monoanion, and dianion simultaneously in one compound. All supramolecular architectures of the organic salts 1-7 involve extensive intermolecular N-H⋯O, O-H⋯O, and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds as well as other noncovalent interactions. Since the potentially hydrogen bonding phenol group is present in the ortho position to the carboxyl group in 2, 3, and 7, it forms the more facile intramolecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding. The role of weak and strong noncovalent interactions in the crystal packing is ascertained. These weak interactions combined, all the complexes displayed 3D framework structure.

At 100 K, the title mol-ecular salt, C 3 H 8 NO + ·C 2 F 6 NO 4 S 2 - , has ortho-rhom-bic ( P 2 1 2 1 2 1 ) symmetry; the amino H atom of bis-(tri-fluoro-methane-sulfon-yl)amine (HNTf 2 ) was transferred to the basic O atom of di-methyl-formamide (DMF) when the ionic liquid components were mixed. The structure displays an O-H⋯N hydrogen bond, which links the cation to the anion, which is reinforced by a non-conventional C-H⋯O inter-action, generating an R 2 2 (7) loop. A further very weak C-H⋯O inter-action generates an [001] chain.

Proposed structures for free thiourea ligands and their vanadium complexes were corroborated by applying geometry optimization and conformational analysis. Solid state structure of complex [H2Met][VO2(dipic-OH)]2·H2O (triclinic, Pī) was fully determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In this complex, metformin is double protonated and acted as counter ion. The antibacterial properties of these compounds were investigated in vitro against standard Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. The experiments showed that vanadium(IV) complexes had the superior antibacterial activities than novel thiourea derivatives and vanadium(V) complex against all Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains.

The structure of the title compound, (C12H24N)2[Sn2(C6H5)4(C2O4)3(H2O)2], consists of a bischelating oxalate ion, located on an inversion center, which is linked to two SnPh2 groups. The coordination sphere of the Sn(IV) ion is completed by a monochelating oxalate anion and a water mol­ecule. The Sn(IV) atoms are thus seven-coordinated. The discrete binuclear units are further connected by hydrogen bonds, leading to a supra­molecular crystal structure. The asymmetric unit contains one half dianion and one (Cy2NH2)+ cation.

(2 E )-1,4-Bis(4-bromo-phen-yl)but-2-ene-1,4-dione [C 16 H 10 Br 2 O 2 , ( 2 )] has a similar structure to ( 1 ), but with two p -bromophenyl rings and a less planar enedione group [r.m.s. deviation = 0.011 (1) Å]. Both mol-ecules sit on a center of inversion, thus Z ' = 0.5. The dihedral angles between the ring and the enedione group are 16.61 (8) and 15.58 (11)° for ( 1 ) and ( 2 ), respectively. In the crystal, mol-ecules of ( 1 ) exhibit C-Cl⋯Cl type I inter-actions, whereas mol-ecules of ( 2 ) present C-Br⋯Br type II inter-actions. van der Waals-type inter-actions contribute to the packing of both mol-ecules, and the packing reveals face-to-face ring stacking with similar inter-planar distances of approximately 3.53 Å.

The 1,2-bis­(pyridin-4-yl)diazene mol­ecules form polymeric chains parallel to [-101] via azo bonds which are situated about inversion centres. Since the CuII atom is situated on a twofold rotation axis, the monomeric unit has point symmetry 2. The perchlorate anions are disordered in a 0.536 (9):0.464 (9) ratio and are acceptors of water H atoms in medium–strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with graph set R 4 4(12). The water mol­ecules, which are coordinated to the CuII atom and are hydrogen-bonded to the perchlorate anions, form columns parallel to [010].

The main difference resides in the fact that the first two complexes are bis­ected by a crystallographic twofold axis, thus providing a symmetrical environment to the cation, while in the third one this symmetry is disrupted into a clearly unsymmetrical disposition, probably by way of an unusually strong intra­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The situation is compared with similar inter­actions in the literature. The structure of (V) is based on a redetermination in the correct space group C2/c of the structure originally described in the Cc space group [Harvey et al. (2001). Aust. J.

The anion binding selectivity and the recognition mechanism of two isomeric boranes, namely, 4-[bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)boranyl]-N,N,N-trimethylaniline ([p-(Mes 2 B)C 6 H 4 (NMe 3 )] + , 1, where "Mes" represents mesitylene and "Me" represents methyl) and 2-[bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)boranyl]-N,N,N-trimethylaniline ([o-(Mes 2 B)C 6 H 4 (NMe 3 )] + , 2) has been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) and time dependent-density functional theory (TD-DFT) methods. Natural population analysis indicates that the central boron atoms in 1 and 2 are the most active centers for nucleophilic addition of anions. The negative magnitude of free energy changes (ΔG) reveals that out of CN - , F - , Cl - , Br - , NO 3 - , and HSO 4 - only the binding of CN - and F - with 1 and 2 is thermodynamically feasible and spontaneous. In addition, the calculated binding energies reveal that the CN - is showing lesser binding affinity than F - both with 1 and 2, while other ions, viz. NO 3 - , HSO 4 - , Br - , and Cl - , either do not bind at all or show very insignificant binding energy. The first excited states (S 1 ) of 1 and 2 are shown to be the local excited states with π → σ* transition by frontier molecular orbital analysis, whereas fourth excited states (S 4 ) of 4-[bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)boranyl]-N,N,N-trimethylaniline cyanide ([p-(Mes 2 B)C 6 H 4 (NMe 3 )] CN, 1CN, the cyano form of 1) and 4-[bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)boranyl]-N,N,N-trimethylaniline fluoride ([p-(Mes 2 B)C 6 H 4 (NMe 3 )] F, 1F, the fluoro form of 1) and fifth excited state (S 5 ) of 2-[bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)boranyl]-N,N,N-trimethylaniline fluoride ([o-(Mes 2 B)C 6 H 4 (NMe 3 )] F, 2F, the fluoro form of 2) are charge separation states that are found to be responsible for the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process. The synergistic effect of ICT and partial configuration changes induce fluorescence quenching in 1CN, 1F, and 2F after a significant internal conversion (IC) from S 4 and S 5 to S 1.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(C2H6N5)2(H2O)4][Co(C7H3NO4)2]2·2H2O, features 1.5 Co(II) ions (one anionic complex and one half cationic complex) and one water mol-ecule. In the cationic complex, the Co(II) atom is located on an inversion centre and is coordinated by two triazolium cations and four water mol-ecules, adopting an octa-hedral geometry where the N atoms of the two triazolium cations occupy the axial positions and the O atoms of the four water mol-ecules the equatorial positions. The two triazole ligands are parallel offset (with a distance of 1.38 Å between their planes). In the anionic complex, the Co(II) ion is six-coordinated by two N and four O atoms of the two pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ate anions, exhibiting a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry in which the mean plane of the two pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ate anions are almost perpendicular to each other, making a dihedral angle of 85.87 (2)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network via C-H⋯O, C-H⋯N, O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The title polymeric compound, {(C(13)H(16)N(2))[Co(C(10)H(3)O(8))(C(13)H(14)N(2))(H(2)O)(2)](2)·5H(2)O}(n), is an ionic structure comprising an anionic two-dimensional mesh characterized by a {[Co(Hbtc)(bpp)(H(2)O)(2)](-)}(2) motif [Hbtc is 5-carboxybenzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylate and bpp is 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane], with interspersed 4,4'-(propane-1,3-diyl)dipyridinium cations, denoted (H(2)bpp)(2+), and water molecules providing the charge balance and structure stabilization. The reticular mesh consists of two independent types of [Co(H(2)O)(2)](2+) cationic nodes (lying on inversion centres), interconnected in the [101] direction by two independent sets of neutral bridging bpp ligands, both types of ligands being split by non-equivalent twofold axes. One set is formed by genuinely symmetric moieties, while those in the second set are only symmetric by disorder in the central propane bridge. These chains contain only one type of Co(II) centre and one type of bpp ligand; the metal cations therein are laterally bridged by Hbtc anions, thus forming transverse chains of alternating types of Co(II) cations. The elemental motif of the resulting grid is a highly distorted parallelogram, with metal-metal distances of 13.5242 (14) Å in the bpp direction and 9.105 (2) Å in the Hbtc direction, and a large internal angle of 138.42 (18)°. These two-dimensional structures have a profusion of hydrogen-bonding interactions with each other, either directly (with the aqua molecules as donors and the Hbtc anions as acceptors) or mediated by the unbound (H(2)bpp)(2+) cations and water molecules of hydration. These interactions generate a very complex hydrogen-bonding scheme involving all of the available N-H and O-H groups and which links these two-dimensional grids into a three-dimensional network.

Windturbinenanlagen nutzen die kinetische Energie des Windes bei Geschwindigkeiten von c=4 m/s bis 25 m/s in Nabenhöhe des Windrades zur Stromerzeugung. Die oben genannten Windgeschwindigkeiten liegen im Grenzschichtbereich der ebenen Strömung (Abb. 67.1), die bei Höhen von h=100 m bis 1000 m liegen und in Großstädten mit Skylines bis 2000 m. Die größten Windturbinentürme erreichen gegenwärtig Nabenhöhen von h=160 m und Windraddurchmesser von d=130 m, d. h. mit Flügellängen von L=65 m. Die Windturbinen werden vorrangig mit 3 Schaufeln ausgeführt. Windturbinen mit einer und zwei Schaufeln waren Versuchsgeräte. Die Drehzahl von Windturbinen für Leistungen von P_{T}=2 MW betragen n=12 bis 20 min{}^{-1}. Das Windrad entzieht dem Wind mit der Anströmgeschwindigkeit c 1 nach Betz die Geschwindigkeitsdifferenz c2=(2/3) c1. Der Rest der Windgeschwindigkeit wird für die Abströmung des Windes im Leebereich c3=c1/3 benötigt. Durch den Entzug der Geschwindigkeit im Laufrad bläht sich der Abströmdurchmesser auf d3> d1 auf, der bei der Installation von Windturbinen zu beachten ist (Abb. 67.2) [Gasch und Twele(2013)]. Um die Windturbinen bei starkem Wind von c {}1> 25 m/s zu schützen, werden die Laufschaufeln durch Pitch- oder Stall-Anlagen aus dem Wind gedreht, so dass die Strömung an den Schaufeln abreißt und das Windrad in die Ruhestellung gelangt. Bei der Windgeschwindigkeit c1=25 m/s bis 34 m/s wird der Windrotor abgeschaltet. Die zulässige Maximalgeschwindigkeit liegt aus Festigkeitsgründen etwa bei . Die aktive Blattverdrehung (Pitchregelung) stellt eine Blattwinkelregelung dar, wobei die Profilnase in die Anströmung gedreht wird.

The unsymmetrical iron(II) bis(imino)pyridine complexes [FeII(LN3SMe)(H2O)3](OTf)2 (1), and [FeII(LN3SMe)Cl2] (2) were synthesized and their reactivity with O2 was examined. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography, LDI-MS, 1H-NMR and elemental analysis. The LN3SMe ligand was designed to incorporate a single sulfide donor and relies on the bis(imino)pyridine scaffold. This scaffold was selected for its ease of synthesis and its well-precedented ability to stabilize Fe(II) ions. Complexes 1 and 2 ware prepared via a metal-assisted template reaction from the unsymmetrical pyridyl ketone precursor 2-(O=CMe)-6-(2,6-(iPr2-C6H3N=CMe)-C5H3N. Reaction of 1 with O2 was shown to afford the S-oxygenated sulfoxide complex [Fe(LN3S(O)Me)(OTf)]2+(3), whereas compound 2, under the same reaction conditions, afforded the corresponding sulfone complex [Fe(LN3S(O2)Me)Cl]2+ (4).

The reaction of Pd(OAc)2 with bis-iminophosphoranes Ph3P=NCH2CH2CH2N=PPh3 (1a), [C6H4(C(O)N=PPh3)2-1,3] (1b) and [C6H4(C(O)N=PPh3)2-1,2] (1c), gives the orthopalladated tetranuclear complexes [{Pd(mu-Cl){C6H4(PPh2=NCH2-kappa-C,N)-2}}2CH2]2 (2a) [{Pd(mu-OAc){C6H4(PPh2=NC(O)-kappa-C,N)-2}}2C6H4-1',3']2 (2b) and [{Pd(mu-OAc){C6H4(PPh2=NC(O)-kappa-C,N)-2}}2C6H4-1',2']2 (2c). The reaction takes place in CH2Cl2 for 1a, but must be performed in glacial acetic acid for 1b and 1c. The process implies in all cases the activation of a C-H bond on a Ph ring of the phosphonium group, with concomitant formation of endo complexes. This is the expected behaviour for 1a, but for 1b and 1c reverses the exo orientation observed in other ketostabilized iminophosphoranes. The influence of the solvent in the orientation of the reaction is discussed. The dinuclear acetylacetonate complexes [{Pd(acac-O,O'){C6H4(PPh2=NCH2-kappa-C,N)-2}}2CH2] (3a), [{Pd(acac-O,O'){C6H4(PPh2=NC(O)-kappa-C,N)-2}}2C6H4-1',3'] (3b) and [{Pd(acac-O,O'){C6H4(PPh2=NC(O)-kappa-C,N)-2}}2C6H4-1',2'] (3c) have been obtained from the halide-bridging tetranuclear derivatives.

Three new derivatives of bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (DPA) featuring ethylguanidinium (L (1)), propylguanidinium (L (2)), or butylguanidinium (L (3)) pendant groups have been prepared by the reaction of N, N- bis(2-pyridylmethyl)alkane-alpha,omega-diamines with 1 H-pyrazole-1-carboxamidine hydrochloride. The corresponding mononuclear copper(II) complexes were prepared by reacting the ligands with copper(II) nitrate and were isolated as [Cu(LH (+))(OH 2)](ClO 4) 3. xNaClO 4. yH 2O ( C1: L = L (1), x = 2, y = 3; C2: L = L (2), x = 2, y = 4; C3: L = L (3), x = 1, y = 0) following cation exchange purification. Recrystallization yielded crystals of composition [Cu(LH (+))(X)](ClO 4) 3.X ( C1': L = L (1), X = MeOH; C2': L = L (2), X = H 2O; C3': L = L (3), X = H 2O), which were suitable for X-ray crystallography. The crystal structures of C1', C2', and C3' indicate that the DPA moieties of the ligands coordinate to the copper(II) centers in a meridional fashion, with a water or methanol molecule occupying the fourth basal position. Weakly bound perchlorate anions located in the axial positions complete the distorted octahedral coordination spheres. The noncoordinating, monoprotonated guanidinium groups project away from the Cu(II)-DPA units and are involved in extensive charge-assisted hydrogen-bonding interactions with cocrystallized water/methanol molecules and perchlorate anions within the crystal lattices. The copper(II) complexes were tested for their ability to promote the cleavage of two model phosphodiesters, bis( p-nitrophenyl)phosphate (BNPP) and uridine-3'- p-nitrophenylphosphate (UpNP), as well as supercoiled plasmid DNA (pBR 322). While the presence of the guanidine pendants was found to be detrimental to BNPP cleavage efficiency, the functionalized complexes were found to cleave plasmid DNA and, in some cases, the model ribose phosphate diester, UpNP, at a faster rate than the parent copper(II) complex of DPA.

All of the CPs have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and further characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). X-ray diffraction analyses show that 1 and 2 are isotypics which have 2D highly undulated networks with (4,4)-sql topology with the existence of C-H ⋯Br interactions; for 3, it has a 2D planar network with (4,4)-sql topology with the occurrence of C-H ⋯Cl interactions other than C-H ⋯Br interactions; 4 shows a 3D 2-fold interpenetrated nets with rare 65·8-mok topology which has a self-catention property. As the same case as 1 and 2, 5 and 6 are also isostructural with planar layers with 44-sql topology which further assembled into 3D supramolecular structure through the interdigitated stacking fashion and the C-Br ⋯Cph interactions. As for 7, it has a 2D slightly undulated networks with (4,4)-sql topology which has one dimension channel. While 8 has a 2-fold interpenetrated networks with (3,4)-connect jeb topology with point symbol {63}{65·8}. And their structures can be tuned by conformations of bis(imidazol) ligands and solvent mixture. Besides, the TGA properties for all compounds and the luminescent properties for 1, 3, 4, 5 are discussed in detail.

The novel asymmetric structures of the dinuclear complexes were characterized by X-ray structure analysis. The complex [Ni(2)(bbapO)(ClO(4))(H(2)O)(MeOH)](ClO(4))(2).Et(2)O, 1, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, with a = 10.258(2) Å, b = 19.876(3) Å, c = 25.592(4) Å, and beta = 97.12(2) degrees. The nickel ions in 1 are bridged by the phenoxy donor of the ligand and a perchlorate anion. The complexes [Ni(2)(tbpO)(MeCOO)(H(2)O)](ClO(4))(2).H(2)O.Et(2)O, 2, [Ni(2)(m-tbpO)(PhCOO)(EtOH)(2)](ClO(4))(2).EtOH, 3, and [Ni(2)(bpepO)(MeCOO)(H(2)O)(2)](ClO(4))(2).H(2)O.Et(2)O.2EtOH, 4, also crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system with the following unit cell parameters: 2, C2/c, a = 35.360(13) Å, b = 10.958(3) Å, c = 24.821(10) Å, beta = 103.55(3) degrees; 3, Cc, a = 14.663(5) Å, b = 32.630(13) Å, c = 9.839(3) Å, beta = 92.49(2) degrees; 4, C2/c, a = 27.689(13) Å, b = 12.187(5) Å, c = 31.513(14) Å, beta = 115.01(3) degrees. The dinuclear centers of all these complexes are bridged by the alkoxy donor of the ligand and a carboxylate function. Compounds 2 and 3 have one of the nickel ions in a five-coordinated, trigonal bipyramidal coordination environment and thus show a high structural similarity to the dinuclear active site of urease from Klebsiella aerogenes. Furthermore, their magnetic and spectroscopic properties were determined and related to those of the urease enzymes. Activity toward hydrolysis of test substrates (4-nitrophenyl)urea, 4-nitroacetanilide, 4-nitrophenyl phosphate or bis(4-nitrophenyl) phosphate by the dinuclear complexes were examined by UV spectroscopic measurements.

The compound is isostructural with [Ru(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(C(5)H(6)N(2))(2)](ClO(4))(2)·CH(3)CN [Duan et al. (1999 ▶). J. Coord. Chem.46, 301-312] and both structures are stabilized by classical hydrogen bonds between 4Apy ligands as donors and counter-ions and acetonitrile solvent mol-ecules as acceptors. Indeed, N-H⋯F inter-actions give rise to an inter-molecularly locked assembly of two centrosymmetric complex mol-ecules and two PF(6) (-) counter-ions, which can be considered as the building units of both crystal architectures. The building blocks are connected to one another through hydrogen bonds between 4Apy and the connecting pieces made up of two centrosymmetric motifs with PF(6) (-) ions and acetonitrile mol-ecules, giving rise to ribbons running parallel to [011]. 2(1)-Screw-axis-related complex mol-ecules and PF(6) (-) counter-ions alternate in helical chains formed along the a axis by means of these contacts.

Addition of H(2) or N(2) to 3a-c yields the thermally unstable dihydrogen and dinitrogen species [Ru(P-O-P)(PPh(3))(eta(2)-H(2))H]BAr(4)(F) (6a-c) and [Ru(P-O-P)(PPh(3))(N(2))H]BAr(4)(F) (7a-c), which have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy at low temperature. Ru(PPh(3))(3)HCl reacts with 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) to give the 16-electron complex Ru(dppf)(PPh(3))HCl (1d), which upon treatment with NaBAr(4)(F), affords [Ru(dppf){(eta(6)-C(6)H(5))PPh(2)}H]BAr(4)(F) (8), in which the PPh(3) ligand binds eta(6) through one of the PPh(3) phenyl rings. Reaction of 8 with CO or PMe(3) at elevated temperatures yields the 18-electron products [Ru(dppf)(PPh(3))(CO)(2)H]BAr(F)(4) (9) and [Ru(PMe(3))(5)H]BAr(4)(F) (10).

The two symmetry-related Ru(II) atoms are bridged by two 4-meth-oxy-α-toluene-thiol-ato [(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)methane-thiol-ato] units. One chlorido ligand and the p-cymene ligand complete the typical piano-stool coordination environment of the Ru(II) atom. In the crystal, the CH moiety of the chloro-form mol-ecule inter-acts with the chlorido ligand of the dinuclear complex, while one Cl atom of the solvent inter-acts more weakly with the methyl group of the bridging 4-meth-oxy-α-toluene-thiol-ato unit. This assembly leads to the formation of supra-molecular chains extending parallel to [021].

A Pd(II)/bis-sulfoxide/Brønsted acid catalyzed allylic C-H oxidation reaction for the synthesis of oxazolidinones from simple N-Boc amines is reported. A range of oxazolidinones are furnished in good yields (avg 63%) and excellent diastereoselectivities (avg 15:1) to furnish products regioisomeric from those previously obtained using allylic C-H amination reactions. Mechanistic studies suggest the role of the phosphoric acid is to furnish a Pd(II)bis-sulfoxide phosphate catalyst that promotes allylic C-H cleavage and π-allylPd functionalization with a weak, aprotic oxygen nucleophile and to assist in catalyst regeneration.

The interest in the oxo-enol tautomerism of 1,3-dioxo compounds is justified by their usefulness in many synthetic fields. A series of new 1,3-bis(1-adamantyl)propan-1,3-diones with a variably substituted phenyl ring at the C2 position was prepared either by the reaction of an appropriate Grignard reagent with adamatane-1-carbonyl chloride or by SEAr on the unsubstituted 1,3-bis(1-adamantyl)-2-phenylpropan-1,3-dione. In addition to the single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of three of the prepared compounds, the experimental 1H and 13C NMR, IR and Raman spectroscopic data were assigned and compared to those obtained by DFT computations. In the solid state, the syn-dioxo forms were exclusively observed, which are shown to also predominate in CHCl3 solutions. The analysis of the Hirshfeld surface revealed that H⋯H and O⋯H contacts dominate the intermolecular interactions in the solid state, whereas π⋯π stacking plays a marginal role.

Impact of food and fluid intake on technical and biological measurement error in body composition assessment methods in athletes.

Two, three and four compartment (2C, 3C and 4C) models of body composition are popular methods to measure fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) in athletes. However, the impact of food and fluid intake on measurement error has not been established. The purpose of this study was to evaluate standardised (overnight fasted, rested and hydrated) v. non-standardised (afternoon and non-fasted) presentation on technical and biological error on surface anthropometry (SA), 2C, 3C and 4C models. In thirty-two athletic males, measures of SA, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) and air displacement plethysmography (BOD POD) were taken to establish 2C, 3C and 4C models. Tests were conducted after an overnight fast (duplicate), about 7 h later after ad libitum food and fluid intake, and repeated 24 h later before and after ingestion of a specified meal. Magnitudes of changes in the mean and typical errors of measurement were determined. Mean change scores for non-standardised presentation and post meal tests for FM were substantially large in BIS, SA, 3C and 4C models. For FFM, mean change scores for non-standardised conditions produced large changes for BIS, 3C and 4C models, small for DXA, trivial for BOD POD and SA. Models that included a total body water (TBW) value from BIS (3C and 4C) were more sensitive to TBW changes in non-standardised conditions than 2C models. Biological error is minimised in all models with standardised presentation but DXA and BOD POD are acceptable if acute food and fluid intake remains below 500 g.

A variety of (bis)thiosemicarbazone-based ligand systems have been investigated as chelating agents for Au(III) complexes with potential radiotherapeutic applications. Ligand systems containing an ethyl, propyl or butyl backbone between the two imine N donors have been synthesized to evaluate chelate ring size effects on the resultant Au(III) complex stability at the macroscopic and radiotracer levels. The Au(III) complexes were synthesized and characterized by NMR, electrospray ionization mass spectra, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography. The (198)Au complexes were evaluated in vitro at the tracer level for stability in phosphate-buffered saline at pH 7.4 and 37 degrees C.

Six new bis-β-diketones (RCOCH2CO-C7H7N-COCH2COR) were synthesized from 3,5-diacetyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine via Claisen condensation with the corresponding esters, and then reacted with boron trifluoride etherate to afford difluoroboron bis-β-diketonate derivatives. Their spectroscopic properties were investigated by UV-vis, FTIR, (1)H NMR and fluorescence spectroscopic techniques. It was found that these boron complexes exhibited violet or blue fluorescence emission at 422-445nm and possessed high extinction coefficients. The results indicate that the extending π-conjugation can increase the fluorescence intensity and quantum yield for these boron complexes. Especially, the compound 2b displayed the stronger fluorescence intensity and the highest fluorescence quantum yield (Φu=0.94) in these boron compounds. However, compounds 2c and 2d had the lower fluorescence intensity and quantum yield as a result of the heavy atom effect of the chlorine atom in the molecules. Copyright © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

The crystal structures of two mixed-valence copper cyanide compounds involving N-methyl­ethylenedi­amine (meen), are described. In compound (I), poly[bis(μ3-cyanido-κ3 C:C:N)tris(μ2-cyanido-κ2 C:N)bis(N-methylethane-1,2-di­amine-κ2 N,N′)tricopper(I)copper(II)], [Cu4(CN)5(C3H10N2)2] or Cu4(CN)5meen2, cyanide groups link CuI atoms into a three-dimensional network containing open channels parallel to the b axis. In the network, two tetra­hedrally bound CuI atoms are bonded by the C atoms of two end-on bridging CN groups to form Cu2(CN)6 moieties with the Cu atoms in close contact at 2.560 (1) Å. Other trigonally bound CuI atoms link these units together to form the network. The CuII atoms, coordinated by two meen units, are covalently linked to the network via a cyanide bridge, and project into the open network channels. In the mol­ecular compound (II), [(N-methylethylenediamine-κ2 N,N′)copper(II)]-μ2-cyanido-κ2 C:N-[bis(cyanido-κC)copper(I)] monohydrate, [Cu2(CN)3(C3H10N2)2]·H2O or Cu2(CN)3meen2·H2O, a CN group connects a CuII atom coordinated by two meen groups with a trigonal–planar CuI atom coordinated by CN groups. The mol­ecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers via hydrogen bonds to two water mol­ecules. In both compounds, the bridging cyanide between the CuII and CuI atoms has the N atom bonded to CuII and the C atom bonded to CuI, and the CuII atoms are in a square-pyramidal coordination.

Various radiometal complexes have been developed for tumor imaging, especially Ga-68 tracer. In the present study, the development of a radiogallium bis-thiosemicarbazone complex has been reported. [67Ga] acetylacetonate bis(thiosemicarbazone) complex ([67Ga] AATS) was prepared starting [67Ga]Gallium acetate and freshly prepared acetylacetonate bis (thiosemicarbazone) (AATS) in 30 min at 90°C. The partition co-efficient and the stability of the tracer were determined in final solution (25°C) and the presence of human serum (37°C) up to 24 h. The biodistribution of the labeled compound in wild-type and fibrosarcoma-bearing rodents were determined up to 72 h. The radiolabled Ga complex was prepared in high radiochemical purity (> 97%, HPLC) followed by initial biodistribution data with the significant tumor accumulation of the tracer in 2 h which is far higher than free Ga-67 cation while the compound wash-out is significantly faster. Above-mentioned pharmacokinetic properties suggest an interesting radiogallium complex while prepared by the PET Ga radioisotope, 68Ga, in accordance with the physical half life, for use in fibrosarcoma tumors, and possibly other malignancies.

Three types of stable pyrene-based highly fluorescence (blue) compounds, 1-, 1,6-bis, 1,8-bis and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(7-tert-butylpyrenyl)pyrenes and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis[9,9-bis(3-methylbutyl)-9H-fluoren-2-yl]pyrene, were successfully synthesized via a Pd/Cu-catalysed Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of the corresponding bromopyrenes with 7-tert-butyl-1-pyrenylboronic ester or 2-[9,9-bis(3-methylbutyl)-9H-fluoren-2-yl]-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl[1,3,2]dioxaborolane, respectively. All compounds have good solubility in common organic solvents and high thermal stability with melting points up to 270 °C; the exceptions are the isomeric 1,6-bis-, and 1,8-bispyrenyl-substituted pyrenes. All products show high extinction coefficients of absorption (λmax ≈ 349-396 nm) and high quantum yields (λmax ≈ 432-465 nm; Φf ≈ 0.75-0.99) in dichloromethane solution, and emit strong fluorescence in the visible region ranging from deep-blue to pure-blue on increasing the number of substituents. This data suggests that such systems have promise as blue emitters in organic light-emitting device (OLED) applications (OLED = organic light emitting diode). Crystal structures were determined for 1,3,6,8-tetrakis [9,9-bis(3-methylbutyl)-9H-fluoren-2-yl] pyrene and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)pyrene.

The title compound, [Na2(C6H5N2O2)2(C6H6N2O2)4], is a centrosymmetric coordination dimer based on the sodium(I) salt of N-hy­droxy­picolinamide. The mol­ecule has an {Na2O6(μ-O)2} core with two bridging carbonyl O atoms and two hydroxamate O atoms of two mono-deprotonated residues of N-hy­droxy­picolinamide, while two neutral N-hy­droxy­picolinamide mol­ecules are coordinated in a monodentate manner to each sodium ion via the carbonyl O atoms [the Na—O distances range from 2.3044 (2) to 2.3716 (2) Å]. The penta­coordinated sodium ion exhibits a distorted trigonal–pyramidal coordination polyhedron. In the crystal, the coordination dimers are linked into chains along the c axis via N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds; the chains are linked into a two-dimensional framework parallel to (100) via weak C—H⋯O and π–π stacking inter­actions.

Three novel pharmaceutical co-crystals, (A)·(gallic acid) (1), (B)·(gallic acid) (2), and (C)·(gallic acid) (3) were generated based on 2,6-bis((pyridin-4-yl)methylene)cyclohexanone (A), N-methyl-3,5-bis((pyridin-3-yl)methylene)-4-piperidone (B), N-methyl-3,5-bis((pyridin-4-yl)methylene)-4-piperidone (C) with gallic acid, respectively. They are characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, 1H NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analysis reveals that two pharmaceutical ingredients link each other into H-bonding-driven 3D network in 1, 2, or 2D plane in 3. In addition, their antitumor activities against human neoplastic cell lines A549, SGC-7901, MCF-7, OVCA-433, HePG2 and cytotoxicity for HUVEC cell lines by CCK-8 method were evaluated primarily. Compared with gallic acid and free A, B and C, their antitumor activities have improved distinctly, while cytotoxicities have reduced markedly, especially for co-crystal 1. This is mainly because of the synergistic effect between pharmaceutical ingredients A, B, and C and gallic acid.

The Ni2+ ion exhibits a distorted octa­hedral coordination environment defined by four N atoms from four bimb ligands in the equatorial plane and two chloride ions in axial positions. The bridging coordination mode of the bimb ligands leads to the formation of inter­penetrating square Ni4(bimb)4 units that are arranged parallel to (001).

These have symmetry-equivalent magnesium atoms bridged by μ-iodide ligands with very similar Mg—I distances. The two Mg atoms are located slightly below (∼0.5 Å) the least-squares plane defined by N–C—C–N atoms in the ligand scaffold, and are approximately tetra­hedrally coordinated. One and one-half toluene solvent mol­ecules are disordered with respect to mirror-site symmetry at Wyckoff sites 4i and 2a, respectively. In the former case, two toluene mol­ecules inter­act in an off-center parallel stacking arrangement; the shortest C to C′ (π–π) distance of 3.72 (1) Å was measured for this inter­action.

In this study, the preparation of a new iron(III) hexacoordinated metalloporphyrin namely the bis(4-ethylaniline){meso-tetra(para-chlorophenyl)porphyrinato}iron(III) triflate hemi-4-ethylaniline monohydrate with the formula [FeIII(TClPP)(PhEtNH2)2]SO3CF3•1/2PhEtNH2•H2O (I) was reported. This is the first example of an iron(III) metalloporphyrin bis(primary amine) with an aryl group adjacent to the amino group. This species was characterized by elemental, spectroscopic analysis including UV-visible and IR data, cyclic voltammetry, SQUID measurements and X-ray molecular structure. The mean equatorial distance between the iron(III) and the nitrogens of the porphyrin is appropriate for a low-spin (S = 1/2) iron(III) porphyrin complex. The magnetic data confirm the low-spin state of our ferric derivative while the cyclic voltammetry indicates a shift of the half potential E1/2[Fe(III)/Fe(II)] of complex (I) toward more negative value. In the crystal of (I), the [FeIII(TClPP)(PhEtNH2)2]+ ions, the triflate counterions and the water molecules are involved in a number of O__H⋯O, N__H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C__H⋯π intermolecular interactions forming a three-dimension network.

Two nitrogen-rich energetic salts (NH4)2(bto) (1) and (NH3OH)2(bto)·H2O (2) [H2bto = Bis (1H-tetrazol-5-yl) methanone oxime] were synthesized by an improved method in which water was used as solvent. These compounds were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Their crystal structures were confirmed to belong to monoclinic system with space group P21 for 1 and Pc for 2, respectively. The detailed thermal behaviours were investigated by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric method (TG) (decomposition temperature >250 °C). The enthalpies of formation were calculated through the experimental values of combustion enthalpy. In addition, the sensitivities toward impact and friction were tested with standard methods, and those results indicated that two compounds are all insensitive (impact >40 J and friction >360 N). In short, both of the compounds show potential usages as energetic materials. The improved process opens a door for exploring nitrogen-rich salts based on Bis (1H-tetrazol-5-yl) methanone oxime.

We report the synthesis of the first 1,1'-bis(boratabenzene) species by tetrabromodiborane(4)-induced ring-expansion reactions of cobaltocene. Six equivalents of cobaltocene are required as the species plays the dual role of reagent and reductant to yield [{(η(5) -C5 H5 )Co}2 {μ:η(6) ,η(6) -(BC5 H5 )2 }]. The formally dianionic bis(boratabenzene) moiety with a boron-boron single bond can be viewed as a symmetric dimer of the parent boratabenzene anion as well as the first example of a diboron analogue of biphenyl. The solution electrochemistry of the bimetallic complex shows four stepwise redox events, indicating significant intramolecular interaction between the cobalt ions across the 1,1'-bis(boratabenzene) unit. The magnetic properties, as investigated by variable-temperature SQUID magnetometry, reveal weak intramolecular antiferromagnetic interactions. Density functional theory calculations support the experimental results and add insight into the various electronic states of the complex. © 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

In recent years, the use of copper N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes has expanded to fields besides catalysis, namely medicinal chemistry and luminescence applications. In the latter case, multinuclear copper NHC compounds have attracted interest, however, the number of these complexes in the literature is still quite limited. Bis[μ-1,3-bis(3-tert-butylimidazolin-2-yliden-1-yl)pyridine]-1κ(4)C(2),N:N,C(2');2κ(4)C(2),N:N,C(2')-dicopper(I) bis(hexafluoridophosphate), [Cu2(C19H25N5)2](PF6)2, is a dimeric copper(I) complex bridged by two CNC, i.e. bis(N-heterocyclic carbene)pyridine, ligands. Each Cu(I) atom is almost linearly coordinated by two NHC ligands and interactions are observed between the pyridine N atoms and the metal centres, while no cuprophilic interactions were observed. Very strong absorption bands are evident in the UV-Vis spectrum at 236 and 274 nm, and an emission band is observed at 450 nm. The reported complex is a new example of a multinuclear copper NHC complex and a member of a compound class which has only rarely been reported.

The reaction of Group 12 metal dihalides MX(2) with the P,N-ligands [Fe(C(5)H(4)-PPh(2))(C(5)H(4)-2-py)] (1) (2-py = pyrid-2-yl), [Fe(C(5)H(4)-PPh(2))(C(5)H(4)-CH(2)-2-py)] (2) and [Fe(C(5)H(4)-PPh(2))(C(5)H(4)-3-py)] (3) (3-py = pyrid-3-yl) was investigated. For a 1 : 1 molar ratio of MX(2) and the respective ligand, three structure types were found in the solid state, viz. chelate, cyclic dimer and chain-like coordination polymer. The M(II) coordination environment is distorted pseudo-tetrahedral in each case. The P-M-N angle is much larger in the chelates (≥119°) than in the ligand-bridged structures (≤109°). 1 prefers the formation of chelates [MX(2)(1-κ(2)N,P)]. 3 forms coordination polymers [MX(2)(μ-3)](n). With the more flexible 2 all three structure types can occur. Dynamic coordination equilibria were observed in solution for the molecular complexes obtained with 1 and 2. NMR data indicate that the N- and P-donor sites interact most strongly with Zn(II) and Hg(II), respectively. While the formation of bis(phosphine)mercury complexes (soft-soft) was easily achieved, no bis(pyridine)zinc complex (borderline-borderline) could be obtained, which is surprising in view of the HSAB principle.

New 1,3-bis(phenylselanylmethyl)benzene (1, 2 and 4) and butyl phenylselane derivatives (3 and 5) are synthesized and full heteronuclear NMR characterization of these compounds are reported. Interestingly, NMR spectrum of compounds 2-5 show coupling of 1H and 13C signals of groups involved in intramolecular nonbonding interactions with 77Se. The coupling constants JH-Se and JC-Se are in the range 13.6-21.6 Hz and 28-49 Hz, respectively. For compounds 4 and 5, JH-Se coupling constants of formyl proton are smaller than their respective acetal sbnd CH protons for compounds 2 and 3. However, this trend is opposite for JC-Se coupling constants, indicating that in formyl group containing compounds 4 and 5, Se⋯O interactions are present while in compounds 2 and 3 with acetal fragments, Se⋯H interactions also could be present because of steric constraints. To confirm these interactions, quantum chemical analyses were performed for 2, 4 and 5. The minimal energy conformation for these compounds present Se⋯O/Se⋯H interactions and are at lower energy in comparison to different conformers which do not show any interaction. For compounds 4 and 5, minimal energy conformation present Se⋯O interactions and for compound 2, Se⋯H is the favored conformation. These results are in accordance with the NMR data for these compounds. X-ray crystal structure of compound 1,3-bis(phenylselanylmethyl)benzene (1) was also determined during this work. In order to understand the effect of the Se⋯O/Se⋯H interactions and the position of phenylselanylmethyl groups, quantum chemical analyses were also carried out for 1,4-bis(phenylselanylmethyl)benzene derivatives (6 and 7). Interestingly, minimal energy conformers of 1,3-bis(phenylselanylmethyl)benzene derivatives 2 and 4 are more stable than their corresponding conformers of 1,4-bis-(phenylselanylmethyl)benzene derivatives 6 and 7.1,3-bis[{(2-(diethoxymethyl)phenyl)selanyl}methyl]benzene (2) with an energy barrier of 16.22 kcal/mol is more stable than corresponding 1,4-bis [{(2-(diethoxymethyl)phenyl)selanyl}methyl]benzene (7), while molecule 4 is 1.79 kcal/mol more stable than its corresponding 2'-[{1,4-phenylenebis(methylene)}bis(selanediyl)]dibenzaldehyde (6).

The water soluble Ni bis(diphosphine) complex [NiL2](BF4)2 (L = 1,2- bis(di(methoxypropyl)phosphino)ethane) and the corresponding hydride, [HNiL2]BF4, were synthesized and characterized. For HNiL2+, the hydricity was determined to be 23.2(3) kcal/mol in aqueous solution. Based on the hydricity of formate of 24.1 kcal/mol, the transfer of a hydride from HNiL2 + to CO2 to produce formate is favorable by 1 kcal/mol. Starting from either NiL2 2+ or HNiL2 + in water, catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 was observed with NaHCO3 (0.8 M) as the only additive.

Much attention has been paid by chemists to the construction of supramolecular coordination compounds based on the multifunctional ligand 5-sulfosalicylic acid (H 3 SSA) due to the structural and biological interest of these compounds. However, no coordination compounds have been reported for the multifunctional amino-substituted sulfobenzoate ligand 2-amino-5-sulfobenzoic acid (H 2 asba). We expected that H 2 asba could be a suitable building block for the assembly of supramolecular networks due to its interesting structural characteristics. The reaction of cadmium(II) nitrate with H 2 asba in the presence of the auxiliary flexible dipyridylamide ligand N,N'-bis[(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]oxamide (4bpme) under ambient conditions formed a new mixed-ligand coordination compound, namely bis(3-amino-4-carboxybenzenesulfonato-κO 1 )diaquabis{N,N'-bis[(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]oxamide-κN}cadmium(II)-N,N'-bis[(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]oxamide-water (1/1/4), [Cd(C 7 H 6 NO 5 S) 2 (C 14 H 14 N 4 O 2 ) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ]·C 14 H 14 N 4 O 2 ·4H 2 O, (1), which was characterized by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction analysis (PXRD), FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), and UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopic analyses in the solid state. The central Cd II atom in (1) occupies a special position on a centre of inversion and exhibits a slightly distorted octahedral geometry, being coordinated by two N atoms from two monodentate 4bpme ligands, four O atoms from two monodentate 4-amino-3-carboxybenzenesulfonate (Hasba - ) ligands and two coordinated water molecules. Interestingly, complex (1) further extends into a threefold polycatenated 0D→2D (0D is zero-dimensional and 2D is two-dimensional) interpenetrated supramolecular two-dimensional (4,4) layer through intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The interlayer hydrogen bonding further links adjacent threefold polycatenated two-dimensional layers into a three-dimensional network. The optical properties of complex (1) indicate that it may be used as a potential indirect band gap semiconductor material. Complex (1) exhibits an irreversible dehydration-rehydration behaviour. The fluorescence properties have also been investigated in the solid state at room temperature.

A series of eight Rhenium(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of the general form [ReCl(CO)3(C^C)] (where C^C is a bis(NHC) bidentate ligand), [ReCl(CO)3(C^C)]2 (where C^C is a bis-bidentate tetra-NHC ligand) and [Re(CO)3(C^N^C)](+)[X](-) (where C^N^C is a bis(NHC)-amine ligand and the counter ion X is either the ReO4(-) or PF6(-)) have been synthesised using a Ag2O transmetallation protocol. The novel precursor imidazolium salts and Re(I) complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy and the molecular structures for two imidazolium salt and six Re(I) complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. These NHC ligand systems are of interest for possible applications in the development of Tc-99m or Re-186/188 radiopharmaceuticals and as such the stability of two complexes of the form [ReCl(CO)3(C^C)] and [Re(CO)3(C^N^C)][ReO4] were evaluated in ligand challenge experiments using the metal binding amino acids L-histidine or L-cysteine. These studies showed that the former was unstable, with the chloride ligand being replaced by either cysteine or histidine, while no evidence for transchelation was observed for the latter suggesting that bis(NHC)-amine ligands of this type may be suitable for biological applications.

The hydrogen bonded molecular complex bis(1-hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-aminium)selenate (C8H24N2O6Se) has been prepared by the reaction of 2-amino-2-methyl propanol and selenic acid. The X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the intermolecular proton transfer from selenic acid (SeO4H2) to 2-amino-2-methylpropanol results in the formation of bis(1-hydroxy-2-methylpropan-2-aminium)selenate (HMPAS) salt and the fragments are connected through H-bonding and ion pairing. The N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O interactions between 2-amino-2-methylpropanol and selenic acid determine the supramolecular arrangement in three-dimensional space. The salt crystallises in the space group P121/n1 of monoclinic system. The complete vibrational assignments of HMPAS have been performed by FTIR and FT-Raman spectroscopy. The experimental data are correlated with the structural properties namely the energy, thermodynamic parameters, atomic charges, hybridization concepts and vibrational frequencies determined by quantum chemical studies performed with B3LYP method using 6-311++G*, 6-31+G* and 6-31G** basis sets.

The title Nd complex [Nd2(C4H5O2)6(H2O)4]·2C5H6N6 is isotypic with two previously reported Dy and Ho isologues. It is composed of [Nd(crot)3(H2O)2]2 dimers [crot(onate) = but-2-enoate = C4H5O2], built up around symmetry centres and completed by 2,6-diamine­purine mol­ecules acting as solvates. The neodymium cations are coordinated by three chelating crotonato units and two water mol­ecules. One of the chelating carboxyl­ates acts also in a bridging mode, sharing one oxygen with both cations, and the final result is a pair of NdO9 tricapped prismatic polyhedra linked to each other through a central (Nd—O)2 loop. A most attractive aspect of the structures resides in the existence of a complex inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding interaction scheme involving two sets of tightly inter­linked, non-inter­secting one-dimensional structures, one of them formed by the [Nd(crot)3(H2O)2]2 dimers running along [100] and the second by the solvate mol­ecules evolving along [010].

The piperazinium bis(4-hydroxybenzenesulphonate) crystallizes from water solution at room temperature in P2 1/ c space group of monoclinic system. The crystals are built up of doubly protonated piperazinium cations and ionized 4-hydroxybenzenesulphonate anions that interact through weak hydrogen bonds of O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O type. Mutual orientation of anions is determined by non-conventional hydrogen bonds of C-H⋯π type. Room temperature powder FT IR and FT Raman measurements were carried out. The vibrational spectra are in full agreement with the structure obtained from X-ray crystallography. The big single crystals of the title salt can be grown.

Due to their rich structural chemistry and wide variety of applications, borate materials have provided a rich area of research. In a continuation of this research, diethylammonium bis(2-oxidobenzoato-κ 2 O 1 ,O 2 )borate, C 4 H 12 N + ·BO 4 (C 7 H 4 O) 2 - , (1), and propylammonium bis(2-oxidobenzoato-κ 2 O 1 ,O 2 )borate, C 3 H 10 N + ·BO 4 (C 7 H 4 O) 2 - , (2), have been synthesized by the reaction of boric acid with salicylic acid under ambient conditions. In both structures, the B atom exhibits a slightly distorted tetrahedral environment formed by the bidentate coordination of two salicylate anions via the O atoms of the central carboxylate and oxide groups. In the crystals of salts (1) and (2), mixed cation-anion layers lying parallel to the (101) plane are formed through N-H...O, C-H...O and C-H...π/N-H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions, resulting, in each case, in a two-dimensional supramolecular architecture in the solid state. The photoluminescence properties of the salts were studied using the as-synthesized samples and reveal that salts (1) and (2) both display a strong blue-light emission, with maxima at 489 and 491 nm, respectively. In DFT/TD-DFT (time-dependent density functional theory) studies, the blue emission appears to be derived from an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) excited state. In addition, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopies were used to investigate the title salts.

The crystal and mol-ecular structures of the two title organotin di-thio-carbamate compounds, [Sn(C 4 H 9 ) 2 (C 7 H 14 NO 2 S 2 ) 2 ], (I), and [Sn(C 6 H 5 ) 3 (C 5 H 10 NOS 2 )], (II), are described. Both structures feature asymmetrically bound di-thio-carbamate ligands leading to a skew-trapezoidal bipyramidal geometry for the metal atom in (I) and a distorted tetra-hedral geometry in (II). The complete mol-ecule of (I) is generated by a crystallographic twofold axis (Sn site symmetry 2). In the crystal of (I), mol-ecules self-assemble into a supra-molecular array parallel to (10-1) via methyl-ene-C-H⋯O(meth-oxy) inter-actions. In the crystal of (II), supra-molecular dimers are formed via pairs of weak phenyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl) contacts. In each of (I) and (II), the specified assemblies connect into a three-dimensional architecture without directional inter-actions between them. Hirshfeld surface analyses confirm the importance of H⋯H contacts in the mol-ecular packing of each of (I) and (II), and in the case of (I), highlight the importance of short meth-oxy-H⋯H(but-yl) contacts between layers.

Structurally diverse metal complexes bearing diamine-bis(benzotriazole phenolate) (DiBTP) ligands have been synthesized and fully characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The reaction of Ti(OiPr)4 with C8MEADiBTP-H2 or C8BEADiBTP-H2 (1.0 mol equiv.) generated the monomeric titanium alkoxy complexes [(C8MEADiBTP)Ti(OiPr)2] (1) and [(C8BEADiBTP)Ti(OiPr)2] (2), respectively. Moreover, C8BEADiBTP-H2 reacted with 2.0 molar equiv. of AlMe3 to give the tetra-coordinated di-aluminum complex [(C8BEADiBTP)Al2Me4] (3). Zinc complex [(C8BEADiBTP)Zn2Et2] (4) could be obtained by the alkane elimination of ZnEt2 (2.0 equiv.) with C8BEADiBTP-H2 as the pro-ligand under similar synthetic methods in good yield. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction indicates that 3 is a bimetallic aluminum dimethyl complex with a tetradentate C8BEADiBTP moiety chelating two metal atoms, whereas complex 4 displays the dinuclear feature containing both tetra- and penta-coordinated zinc atoms bonded by one ONNON-pentadentate C8BEADiBTP ligand. Catalytic studies for ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone of complex 1-4 were systematic explored; the comparative studies of such polymerization were also discussed.

In the crystal of the title complex, [Cu(C 7 H 6 NO 4 S) 2 (C 6 H 6 N 2 O) 2 (H 2 O)], the Cu II cation and the O atom of the coordinated water mol-ecule reside on a twofold rotation axis. The Cu II ion is coordinated by two carboxyl-ate O atoms of the two symmetry-related 4-sulfamoylbenzoate (SB) anions and by two N atoms of the two symmetry-related nicotinamide (NA) mol-ecules at distances of 1.978 (2) and 2.025 (3) Å, respectively, forming a slightly distorted square-planar arrangement. The distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment is completed by the water O atom in the axial position at a distance of 2.147 (4) Å. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked via O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds with R 2 2 (8) and R 2 2 (18) ring motifs, forming a three-dimensional architecture. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯O/O⋯H (42.2%), H⋯H (25.7%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (20.0%) inter-actions.

The ligand 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) is commonly employed in a variety of catalytic systems. There are a variety of coordination modes known for dppf, the least studied being the κ 3 coordination mode, in which both phosphorus atoms and the iron atom of dppf interact with another metal center. One such compound is the previously reported [Pd(κ 3 -dppf)(PPh 3 )] 2+ . A series of related compounds, [Pd(κ 3 -dppf)(P(p-C 6 H 4 R) 3 )] 2+ (R = OCH 3 , CH 3 , F and CF 3 ), has been synthesized and characterized. The X-ray crystal structure of [Pd(dppf)(P(p-C 6 H 4 F) 3 )][BF 4 ] 2 was determined. Electrochemical and computational studies indicate that the electron donor ability of the P(p-C 6 H 4 R) 3 ligands influences the properties of these compounds. Substitution reactions of the P(p-C 6 H 4 R) 3 ligands have been examined, and, in general, the more electron donating P(p-C 6 H 4 R) 3 ligands completely replace the less electron donating ones. The kinetics of the reaction of [Pd(κ 3 -dppf)(P(p-C 6 H 4 F) 3 )] 2+ with P(p-C 6 H 4 OCH 3 ) 3 indicate that the reaction proceeds through a dissociative mechanism, contrary to the associative substitutions prevalent in square planar palladium(ii) chemistry.

In both (I) and (II), two Cu(II) ions are bridged by four syn,syn-η(1):η(1):μ carboxylate groups, showing a paddle-wheel cage-type structure with a square-pyramidal coordination geometry. The equatorial positions of (I) and (II) are occupied by the carboxylate groups of 4-hydroxy- and 4-methoxybenzoate ligands, and the axial positions are occupied by aqua and DMF ligands, respectively. The three-dimensional supramolecular metal-organic framework of (I) consists of three different R2(2)(20) and an R4(4)(36) ring motif formed via O-H···O and OW-HW···O hydrogen bonds.

The discovery that 5-methylcytosine (5mC) can be oxidized to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) by the ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins has prompted wide interest in the potential role of 5hmC in reshaping the mammalian DNA methylation landscape. The gold-standard bisulphite conversion technologies to study DNA methylation do not distinguish between 5mC and 5hmC. However, new approaches to mapping 5hmC genome-wide have advanced rapidly, although it is unclear how the different methods compare in accurately calling 5hmC. In this study, we provide a comparative analysis on brain DNA using three 5hmC genome-wide approaches, namely whole-genome bisulphite/oxidative bisulphite sequencing (WG Bis/OxBis-seq), Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip arrays coupled with oxidative bisulphite (HM450K Bis/OxBis) and antibody-based immunoprecipitation and sequencing of hydroxymethylated DNA (hMeDIP-seq). We also perform loci-specific TET-assisted bisulphite sequencing (TAB-seq) for validation of candidate regions. We show that whole-genome single-base resolution approaches are advantaged in providing precise 5hmC values but require high sequencing depth to accurately measure 5hmC, as this modification is commonly in low abundance in mammalian cells. HM450K arrays coupled with oxidative bisulphite provide a cost-effective representation of 5hmC distribution, at CpG sites with 5hmC levels >~10%. However, 5hmC analysis is restricted to the genomic location of the probes, which is an important consideration as 5hmC modification is commonly enriched at enhancer elements. Finally, we show that the widely used hMeDIP-seq method provides an efficient genome-wide profile of 5hmC and shows high correlation with WG Bis/OxBis-seq 5hmC distribution in brain DNA. However, in cell line DNA with low levels of 5hmC, hMeDIP-seq-enriched regions are not detected by WG Bis/OxBis or HM450K, either suggesting misinterpretation of 5hmC calls by hMeDIP or lack of sensitivity of the latter methods. We highlight both the advantages and caveats of three commonly used genome-wide 5hmC profiling technologies and show that interpretation of 5hmC data can be significantly influenced by the sensitivity of methods used, especially as the levels of 5hmC are low and vary in different cell types and different genomic locations.

Two ferrocene derivatives with appended pyrazole substituents, namely, 1,1'-bis(5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)ferrocene (H2LH) and 1,1'-bis(5-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)ferrocene (H2LF), were synthesized. In solid state they form distinct H-bonded dimers with orthogonal (H2LH, C2 symmetry) or antiparallel (H2LF, C2h symmetry) arrangement of the two ferrocene/pyrazole hybrid molecules. Supramolecular dimerization was also detected in solution at low temperatures, though diffusion-ordered spectroscopy and variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy revealed several dynamic processes. Redox potentials of the ferrocene derivatives are affected by the nature of the pyrazole substituent (Me, CF3). In their deprotonated form [LR]2-, both ferrocene/pyrazole hybrids serve as ligands and form oligonuclear CuI, AgI, and AuI complexes that were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry. X-ray crystallography revealed the structures of Cu6L3H and Ag6L3F, which both contain two parallel and eclipsed [M(μ-pz)]3 metallamacrocycles (M = Cu, Ag) linked by three ferrocene units. MI···MI distances between the two triangular M3N6 decks are shorter in Ag6L3F (3.28-3.30 vs 3.44-3.51 Å in the case of Cu6L3H), indicating substantial intramolecular closed-shell Ag(d10)-Ag(d10) interactions. However, Cu6L3H features close intermolecular Cu···Cu contacts as short as 3.37 Å. Mössbauer data for both the ligands and complexes were collected, and electrochemical properties were measured; preliminary luminescence data are reported.

The development of rhenium(I) chemistry has been restricted by the limited structural and electronic variability of the common pseudo-octahedral products fac-[ReX(CO)3L2] (L2 = α-diimine). We address this constraint by first preparing the bidentate bis(imino)pyridine complexes [(2,6-{2,6-Me2C6H3N=CPh}2C5H3N)Re(CO)3X] (X = Cl 2, Br 3), which were characterized by spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic means, and then converting these species into tridentate pincer ligand compounds, [(2,6-{2,6-Me2C6H3N=CPh}2C5H3N)Re(CO)2X] (X = Cl 4, Br 5). This transformation was performed in the solid-state by controlled heating of 2 or 3 above 200 °C in a tube furnace under a flow of nitrogen gas, giving excellent yields (≥95 %). Compounds 4 and 5 define a new coordination environment for rhenium(I) carbonyl chemistry where the metal center is supported by a planar, tridentate pincer-coordinated bis(imino)pyridine ligand. The basic photophysical features of these compounds show significant elaboration in both number and intensity of the d-π* transitions observed in the UV/Vis spec tra relative to the bidentate starting materials, and these spectra were analyzed using time-dependent DFT computations. The redox nature of the bis(imino)pyridine ligand in compounds 2 and 4 was examined by electrochemical analysis, which showed two ligand reduction events and demonstrated that the ligand reduction shifts to a more positive potential when going from bidentate 2 to tridentate 4 (+160 mV for the first reduction step and +90 mV for the second). These observations indicate an increase in electrostatic stabilization of the reduced ligand in the tridentate conformation. Elaboration on this synthetic methodology documented its generality through the preparation of the pseudo-octahedral rhenium(I) triflate complex [(2,6-{2,6-Me2C6H3N=CPh}2C5H3N)Re(CO)2OTf] (7, 93 % yield).

Monomeric complex (I) possesses a crystallographic inversion center at the Cu(II) atom, and the asymmetric unit contains one-half of a Cu atom, one complete 4-aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonate (ans) ligand and one 4,5-diazafluoren-9-one (DAFO) ligand. The Cu(II) atom has an elongated distorted octahedral coordination geometry formed by two O atoms from two monodentate ans ligands and by four N atoms from two DAFO molecules. Complex (II) is polymeric and its crystal structure is built up by one-dimensional chains and solvent water molecules. Here also the cation (a Cd(II) atom) lies on a crystallographic inversion center and adopts a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Each ans anion serves as a bridging ligand linking two Cd(II) atoms into one-dimensional infinite chains along the [010] direction, with each Cd(II) center coordinated by four ans ligands via O and N atoms and by two aqua ligands. In both structures, there are significant pi-pi stacking interactions between adjacent ligands and hydrogen bonds contribute to the formation of two- and three-dimensional networks.

The complex [Fe(indH)(solvent) 3 ](ClO 4 ) 2 ( 1 ) has been isolated from the reaction of equimolar amounts of 1,3-bis(2'-pyridylimino)isoindoline (indH) and Fe(ClO 4 ) 2 in acetonitrile and characterized by X-ray crystallography and several spectroscopic techniques. It is a suitable catalyst for the oxidation of thioanisoles and benzyl alcohols with H 2 O 2 as the oxidant. Hammett correlations and kinetic isotope effect experiments support the involvement of an electrophilic metal-based oxidant. A metastable green species ( 2 ) is observed when 1 is reacted with H 2 O 2 at -40 °C, which has been characterized to have a Fe III ( μ -O)( μ -O 2 )Fe III core on the basis of UV-Vis, electron paramagnetic resonance, resonance Raman, and X-ray absorption spectroscopic data.

X-ray crystal structures of a series of cationic (P-P)palladium(1,1-(CH(3))(2)C(3)H(3)) complexes (P-P = dppe (1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane), dppf (1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene), and DPEphos (2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)diphenyl ether)) and the (Xantphos)Pd(C(3)H(5))BF(4) (Xantphos = 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene) complex have been determined. In the solid state structure, the phenyl rings of the ligand are oriented in the direction of the nonsymmetrically bound [1,1-(CH(3))(2)C(3)H(3)] moiety. An increase of the bite angle of the chelating ligand results in an increase of the cone angle. In complexes containing ligands having a large cone angle, the distances between the phenyl rings and the allyl moiety become small, resulting in a distortion of the symmetry of the palladium-allyl bond. In solution, two types of dynamic exchange have been observed, the pi-sigma rearrangement and the apparent rotation of the allyl moiety. At the same time, the folded structure of the ligand changes from an endo to an exo orientation or vice versa. The regioselectivity in the palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation of 3-methyl-but-2-enyl acetate is determined by the cone angle of the bidentate phosphine ligand. Nucleophilic attack by a malonate anion takes place preferentially at the allylic carbon atom having the largest distance to palladium. Ligands with a larger cone angle direct the regioselectivity to the formation of the branched product, from 8% for dppe (1) to 61% found for Xantphos (6). The influence of the cone angle on the regioselectivity has been assigned to a sterically induced electronic effect.

Functionalized ynones can be activated by Tf 2 C=CH 2 , which was generated in situ, to form zwitterionic species. These species were trapped in an intramolecular fashion by several nucleophiles to generate two major types of triflones in a divergent manner. Through fine-tuning of the reaction temperature, bis(triflyl)-6-membered- or (triflyl)-5-membered-fused-heterocycles were achieved in reasonable yields in a totally selective manner. In this way, bis(triflyl)flavones, bis(triflyl)thioflavones, bis(triflyl)selenoflavones, (triflyl)benzothienopyrans, (triflyl)benzoselenophenopyrans, (triflyl)vinyl aurones, and (triflyl)pyranoindoles were constructed. Conceivable mechanistic pathways were suggested on the basis of the isolation of several intermediates and the results from control experiments. © 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Volatile trends are established for four new β-ketiminate hafnium(IV) chloride complexes (4a-d).

Each Cd(II) centre is six-coordinated by four O atoms of bridging/chelating carboxylate groups from three L(2-) ligands and by two N atoms from two bpe ligands, forming a distorted octahedron. The Cd(II) cations are bridged by L(2-) and bpe ligands to give a two-dimensional (4,4) layer. The layers are interlinked through bridging carboxylate O atoms from L(2-) ligands, generating a two-dimensional bilayered structure with a 3(6)4(13)6(2) topology. The bilayered structures are further extended to form a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture via a combination of hydrogen-bonding and aromatic stacking interactions.

Treatment of toluene solutions of the ditellurides [Te(2){C(5)H(3)N(R)-3}(2)] (R = H or Me) with [Pt(PPh(3))(4)] yielded two types of complexes, [Pt{2-Te-3-(R)C(5)H(3)N}(2)(PPh(3))(2)] (1a-d) as the major products and [Pt{2-Te-3-(R)C(5)H(3)N}(2)Te(PPh(3))] (2a-d) as minor products. The above complexes can also be obtained by the reaction of [PtCl(2)(PR'(3))(2)] (PR'(3) = PPh(3) or PPh(2)(2-C(5)H(4)N)) with 2 equiv of Na(2-Te-C(5)H(3)R). The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses and UV-vis, NMR ((1)H and (31)P), and (in part) XPS spectroscopy. The molecular structures of [Pt(2-Te-C(5)H(4)N)(2)Te(PPh(3))] (2a) and [Pt{2-Te-C(5)H(3)(Me)N}(2)Te(PPh(3))] (2b) were established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Both complexes exhibit a distorted square-planar configuration at the platinum(II) centers. The two mutually trans positioned 2-pyridinetellurolate ligands [2-Te-C(5)H(3)(R)N] coordinate to the central platinum atom in a monodentate fashion through the tellurium atoms. The tellurium(0) atom adopts a "bent T" configuration as it is bridging the 2-Te- C(5)H(3)(R)N molecules via N-Te-N bonds (166 degrees angle) and coordinates to Pt(II) in the trans position to PPh(3). The novel bis(pyridine)tellurium(0) arrangement resembles the bis(pyridine)iodonium structure. The calculated NICS indices and ELF functions clearly show that the compounds 2a and 2b are aromatic in the region defined by the Te-C-N-Te-Pt five-membered rings.

Three new N-alkyl substituted bis(imino)pyridine iron imide complexes, ((iPr)PDI)FeNR ((iPr)PDI = 2,6-(2,6-(i)Pr(2)-C(6)H(3)-N═CMe)(2)C(5)H(3)N; R = 1-adamantyl ((1)Ad), cyclooctyl ((Cy)Oct), and 2-adamantyl ((2)Ad)) were synthesized by addition of the appropriate alkyl azide to the iron bis(dinitrogen) complex, ((iPr)PDI)Fe(N(2))(2). SQUID magnetic measurements on the isomeric iron imides, ((iPr)PDI)FeN(1)Ad and ((iPr)PDI)FeN(2)Ad, established spin crossover behavior with the latter example having a more complete spin transition in the experimentally accessible temperature range. X-ray diffraction on all three alkyl-substituted bis(imino)pyridine iron imides established essentially planar compounds with relatively short Fe-N(imide) bond lengths and two-electron reduction of the redox-active bis(imino)pyridine chelate. Zero- and applied-field Mössbauer spectroscopic measurements indicate diamagnetic ground states at cryogenic temperatures and established low isomer shifts consistent with highly covalent molecules. For ((iPr)PDI)FeN(2)Ad, Mössbauer spectroscopy also supports spin crossover behavior and allowed extraction of thermodynamic parameters for the S = 0 to S = 1 transition. X-ray absorption spectroscopy and computational studies were also performed to explore the electronic structure of the bis(imino)pyridine alkyl-substituted imides. An electronic structure description with a low spin ferric center (S = 1/2) antiferromagnetically coupled to an imidyl radical (S(imide) = 1/2) and a closed-shell, dianionic bis(imino)pyridine chelate (S(PDI) = 0) is favored for the S = 0 state. An iron-centered spin transition to an intermediate spin ferric ion (S(Fe) = 3/2) accounts for the S = 1 state observed at higher temperatures. Other possibilities based on the computational and experimental data are also evaluated and compared to the electronic structure of the bis(imino)pyridine iron N-aryl imide counterparts.

The bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine cobalt methyl complex, ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3, was evaluated for the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes. At 22 °C and 4 atm of H2 pressure, ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3 is an effective precatalyst for the hydrogenation of sterically hindered, unactivated alkenes such as trans-methylstilbene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, representing one of the most active cobalt hydrogenation catalysts reported to date. Preparation of the cobalt hydride complex, ((iPr)CNC)CoH, was accomplished by hydrogenation of ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3. Over the course of 3 h at 22 °C, migration of the metal hydride to the 4-position of the pyridine ring yielded (4-H2-(iPr)CNC)CoN2. Similar alkyl migration was observed upon treatment of ((iPr)CNC)CoH with 1,1-diphenylethylene. This reactivity raised the question as to whether this class of chelate is redox-active, engaging in radical chemistry with the cobalt center. A combination of structural, spectroscopic, and computational studies was conducted and provided definitive evidence for bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine radicals in reduced cobalt chemistry. Spin density calculations established that the radicals were localized on the pyridine ring, accounting for the observed reactivity, and suggest that a wide family of pyridine-based pincers may also be redox-active.

Controlled oxidation of organic sulfides to sulfoxides under ambient conditions has been achieved by a series of titanium isopropoxide complexes that use environmentally benign H(2)O(2) as a primary oxidant. Specifically, the [N,N'-bis(2-oxo-3-R(1)-5-R(2)-phenylmethyl)-N,N'-bis(methylene-R(3))-ethylenediamine]Ti(O(i)Pr)(2) [R(1) = t-Bu, R(2) = Me, R(3) = C(7)H(5)O(2) (1b); R(1) = R(2) = t-Bu, R(3) = C(7)H(5)O(2) (2b); R(1) = R(2) = Cl, R(3) = C(7)H(5)O(2) (3b) and R(1) = R(2) = Cl, R(3) = C(6)H(5) (4b)] complexes efficiently catalyzed the sulfoxidation reactions of organic sulfides to sulfoxides at room temperature within 30 min of the reaction time using aqueous H(2)O(2) as an oxidant. A mechanistic pathway, modeled using density functional theory for a representative thioanisole substrate catalyzed by 4b, suggested that the reaction proceeds via a titanium peroxo intermediate 4c', which displays an activation barrier of 22.5 kcal mol(-1) (DeltaG(++)) for the overall catalytic cycle in undergoing an attack by the S atom of the thioanisole substrate at its sigma*-orbital of the peroxo moiety. The formation of the titanium peroxo intermediate was experimentally corroborated by a mild ionization atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) mass spectrometric technique.

Body water content increases during carbohydrate loading because 2.7-4-g water binds each 1 g of glycogen. Bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) allows separate assessment of extracellular and intracellular water (ECW and ICW, respectively) in the whole body and each body segment. However, BIS has not been shown to detect changes in body water induced by carbohydrate loading. Here, we aimed to investigate whether BIS had sufficient sensitivity to detect changes in body water content and to determine segmental water distribution after carbohydrate loading. Eight subjects consumed a high-carbohydrate diet containing 12 g carbohydrates·kg body mass(-1)·day(-1) for 72 h after glycogen depletion cycling exercise. Changes in muscle glycogen concentration were measured by (13)C-magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and total body water (TBW) was measured by the deuterium dilution technique (TBWD2O). ICW and ECW in the whole body (wrist-to-ankle) and in each body segment (arm, trunk, and leg) were assessed by BIS. Muscle glycogen concentration [72.7 ± 10.0 (SD) to 169.4 ± 55.9 mmol/kg wet wt, P < 0.001] and TBWD2O (39.3 ± 3.2 to 40.2 ± 3.0 kg, P < 0.05) increased significantly 72 h after exercise compared with baseline, respectively. Whole-body BIS showed significant increases in ICW (P < 0.05), but not in ECW. Segmental BIS showed significant increases in ICW in the legs (P < 0.05), but not in the arms or trunk. Our results suggest that increase in body water after carbohydrate loading can be detected by BIS and is caused by segment-specific increases in ICW.

The structure of the title compound, [Cu2I2(C44H32P2)2]·0.67H2O, has been determined because of its inter­esting catalytic and optical features. The mol­ecule, which has non-crystallographic C2-symmetry, consists of a core structure of two CuI ions, bridged by two iodide ions. Each CuI ion is also coordinated by one equivalent of the chiral bidentate (R)-BINAP ligand [BINAP = 2,2′-bis­(diphenyl­phosphan­yl)-1,1′-binaphth­yl]. Thus, both cations show a distorted tetra­hedral geometry being surrounded by two I atoms and two P atoms from the (R)-BINAP ligands. The complex consists of isolated butterfly-shaped mol­ecules featuring an angle of 146.11 (2)° between adjacent CuI2 planes. The structure displays intra­molecular C—H⋯I hydrogen bonding and contains disordered water. The absolute configuration of this chiral complex was determined by anomalous dispersion effects.

2-Ethylhexyl-2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB) and bis(2-ethylhexyl)tetrabromophthalate (BEH-TEBP) are novel brominated flame retardants used in consumer products. A parallelogram approach was used to predict human dermal absorption and flux for EH-TBB and BEH-TEBP. [ 14 C]-EH-TBB or [ 14 C]-BEH-TEBP was applied to human or rat skin at 100nmol/cm 2 using a flow-through system. Intact rats received analogous dermal doses. Treated skin was washed and tape-stripped to remove "unabsorbed" [ 14 C]-radioactivity after continuous exposure (24h). "Absorbed" was quantified using dermally retained [ 14 C]-radioactivity; "penetrated" was calculated based on [ 14 C]-radioactivity in media (in vitro) or excreta+tissues (in vivo). Human skin absorbed EH-TBB (24±1%) while 0.2±0.1% penetrated skin. Rat skin absorbed more (51±10%) and was more permeable (2±0.5%) to EH-TBB in vitro; maximal EH-TBB flux was 11±7 and 102±24pmol-eq/cm 2 /h for human and rat skin, respectively. In vivo, 27±5% was absorbed and 13% reached systemic circulation after 24h (maximum flux was 464±65pmol-eq/cm 2 /h). BEH-TEBP in vitro penetrance was minimal (<0.01%) for rat or human skin. BEH-TEBP absorption was 12±11% for human skin and 41±3% for rat skin. In vivo, total absorption was 27±9%; 1.2% reached systemic circulation. In vitro maximal BEH-TEBP flux was 0.3±0.2 and 1±0.3pmol-eq/cm 2 /h for human and rat skin; in vivo maximum flux for rat skin was 16±7pmol-eq/cm 2 /h. EH-TBB was metabolized in rat and human skin to tetrabromobenzoic acid. BEH-TEBP-derived [ 14 C]-radioactivity in the perfusion media could not be characterized. <1% of the dose of EH-TBB and BEH-TEHP is estimated to reach the systemic circulation following human dermal exposure under the conditions tested. 2-Ethylhexyl 2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (PubChem CID: 71316600; CAS No. 183658-27-7 FW: 549.92g/mol logP est : 7.73-8.75 (12)) Abdallah et al., 2015a.

d-Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenases (RuBisCOs) are promiscuous, catalyzing not only carboxylation and oxygenation of d-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate but also other promiscuous, presumably nonphysiological, reactions initiated by abstraction of the 3-proton of d-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate. Also, RuBisCO has homologues that do not catalyze carboxylation; these are designated RuBisCO-like proteins or RLPs. Members of the two families of RLPs catalyze reactions in the recycling of 5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) generated by polyamine synthesis: (1) the 2,3-diketo-5-methylthiopentane 1-phosphate (DK-MTP 1-P) "enolase" reaction in the well-known "methionine salvage" pathway in Bacillus sp. and (2) the 5-methylthio-d-ribulose 1-phosphate (MTRu 1-P) 1,3-isomerase reaction in the recently discovered "MTA-isoprenoid shunt" that generates 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate for nonmevalonate isoprene synthesis in Rhodospirillum rubrum. We first studied the structure and reactivity of DK-MTP 1-P that was reported to decompose rapidly [Ashida, H., Saito, Y., Kojima, C., and Yokota, A. (2008) Biosci., Biotechnol., Biochem. 72, 959-967]. The 2-carbonyl group of DK-MTP 1-P is rapidly hydrated and can undergo enolization both nonenzymatically and enzymatically via the small amount of unhydrated material that is present. We then examined the ability of RuBisCO from R. rubrum to catalyze both of the RLP-catalyzed reactions. Contrary to a previous report [Ashida, H., Saito, Y., Kojima, C., Kobayashi, K., Ogasawara, N., and Yokota, A. (2003) Science 302, 286-290], we were unable to confirm that this RuBisCO catalyzes the DK-MTP 1-P "enolase" reaction either in vitro or in vivo. We also determined that this RuBisCO does not catalyze the MTRu 1-P 1,3-isomerase reaction in vitro. Thus, although RuBisCOs can be functionally promiscuous, RuBisCO from R. rubrum is not promiscuous for either of the known RLP-catalyzed reactions.

The title mononuclear complex, [Cu(CO(3))(C(8)H(7)N(5))(H(2)O)] x 2H(2)O, was obtained by fixation of CO(2) by a mixture of copper(II) tetrafluoroborate and the ligand bis(pyrimidin-2-yl)amine in ethanol/water. The Cu(II) ion of the complex has a distorted square-pyramidal environment, with a basal plane formed by two N atoms of the ligand and two chelating O atoms of the carbonate group, while the apical position is occupied by the O atom of the coordinating water molecule. In the solid state, hydrogen-bonding interactions are dominant, the most unusual being the Watson-Crick-type coplanar ligand pairing through two N--H...N bonds. Lattice water molecules also participate in hydrogen bonding.

A novel ternary complex, Tb(2)L4 · L'·(ClO4)6 · 8H2O, has been synthesized using bis(benzylsulfinyl)methane as the first ligand L and 2,2'-dipyridyl as the second ligand L'. The ternary complex was characterized by element analysis, molar conductivity, coordination titration analysis, infrared, thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetric and ultraviolet spectra. The results indicated that the composition of the complex was Tb2 L4 · L'·(ClO4)6 · 8H2O (L = C(6)H(5)CH(2) SOCH(2)SOCH(2)C(6)H(5); L' = Dipy). Fourier transform infrared results revealed that the perchlorate group was bonded with the Tb(III) ion by the oxygen atom, and the coordination was bidentate. The fluorescent spectra illustrated that the complex displayed characteristic fluorescence in the solid state. After the introduction of the second ligand, 2,2-dipyridyl, the relative emission intensity and fluorescence lifetime of the ternary complex Tb(2)L(4) · L'·(ClO(4))(6) · 8H2O were enhanced compared to the binary complex TbL(2.5)(ClO4)3 · 3H2O. This indicated that the presence of both organic ligand bis(benzylsulfinyl)methane and the second ligand 2,2-dipyridyl could sensitize the fluorescence intensity of Tb(III) ion, and introduction of the 2,2-dipyridyl group resulted in an enhancement of the fluorescence of the Tb(III) ternary rare earth complex. The strongest characteristic fluorescence emission intensity of the ternary complex was 9.36 times that of the binary complex. The phosphorescence spectra and fluorescence lifetime of the complex were also measured. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The molecular structures of 19 purified isomers of bis-phenyl-C 62 -butyric acid methyl ester were identified by a combination of 13 C NMR and UV-vis absorption spectroscopies and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) retention time analysis. All 19 isomers are dicyclopropafullerenes (none are homofullerenes). There were seven isomers with C 1 molecular point-group symmetry, four with C s , six with C 2 , one with C 2 v , and one with C 2 h symmetry. The C 2 h , C 2 v , and all five nonequatorial C 1 isomers were unambiguously assigned to their respective HPLC fractions. For the other 12 isomers, the 13 C NMR and UV-vis spectra placed them in six groups of two same-symmetry isomers. On the basis of the widely spaced HPLC retention times of the two isomers within each of these six groups, and the empirical inverse correlation between retention time and addend spacing, each isomer was assigned to its corresponding HPLC fraction. In addition, the missing trans-1 isomer was found, purified, and characterized.

The adeninium cations form N-H...O hydrogen bonds with the phthalate anions. The cations also form infinite one-dimensional polymeric ribbons via N-H...N interactions. In the crystal packing, hydrogen-bonded columns of cations, anions and phthalate anions extend parallel to the c axis. The water molecules crosslink adjacent columns into hydrogen-bonded layers.

There is one half-mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit; the complex is located on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis passing through the cation and bis­ecting one of the (non-symmetric) ligands, which appears thus disordered over two sites of equal occupancy. In the crystal structure, weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯S inter­actions contribute to the packing stabilization. PMID:21577695

The whole mol-ecule of the title porphyrin, C 46 H 32 N 6 O 4 ·2C 6 H 5 NO 2 , which crystallized as a nitro-benzene disolvate, is generated by inversion symmetry. The porphyrin macrocycle is almost planar, the maximum deviation from the mean plane of the non-hydrogen atoms is 0.097 (2) Å. The aryl rings at the meso positions are inclined to this mean plane by 74.84 (6)° for the nitro-phenyl rings and 73.37 (7)° for the tolyl rings. In the crystal, the porphyrin mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100]. The solvent mol-ecules are also linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100]. Inter-digitation of the p -tolyl groups along the c axis creates rectangular channels in which the solvent mol-ecules are located.

A novel bis-hydroxymethyl-substituted DTTA chelator N'-Bz-C(4,4')-(CH(2)OH)(2)-DTTA () and its DTPA analogue C(4,4')-(CH(2)OH)(2)-DTPA () were synthesized and characterized. A variable-temperature (1)H NMR spectroscopy study of the solution dynamics of their diamagnetic (La) and paramagnetic (Sm, Eu) Ln(3+) complexes showed them to be rigid when compared with analogous Ln(3+)-DTTA and Ln(3+)-DTPA complexes, as a result of their C(4,4')-(CH(2)OH)(2) ligand backbone substitution. The parameters that govern the water (1)H relaxivity of the [Gd()(H(2)O)(2)](-) and [Gd()(H(2)O)](2-) complexes were obtained by (17)O and (1)H NMR relaxometry. While the relaxometric behaviour of the [Gd()(H(2)O)](2-) complex is very similar to the parent [Gd(DTPA)(H(2)O)](2-) system, the [Gd()(H(2)O)(2)](-) complex displays higher relaxivity, due to the presence of two inner sphere water molecules and an accelerated, near optimal water exchange rate. The [Gd()(H(2)O)(2)](-) complex interacts weakly with human serum albumin (HSA), and its fully bound relaxivity is limited by slow water exchange, as monitored by (1)H NMR relaxometry. This complex interacts weakly with phosphate, but does not form ternary complexes with bidentate bicarbonate and l-lactate anions, indicating that the two inner-sphere water molecules of the [Gd()(H(2)O)(2)](-) complex are not located in adjacent positions in the coordination sphere of the Gd(3+) ion. The transmetallation reaction rate of [Gd()(H(2)O)(2)](-) with Zn(2+) in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) was measured to be similar to that of the backbone unsubstituted [Gd(DTTA-Me)(H(2)O)(2)](-), but twice faster than for [Gd(DTPA-BMA)(H(2)O)]. The in vivo biodistribution studies of the (153)Sm(3+)-labelled ligand () in Wistar rats reveal slow blood elimination and short term fixation in various organs, indicating some dissociation. The bis-hydroxymethyl-substituted DTTA skeleton can be seen as a new lead for the synthesis of high relaxivity contrast agents, although its low thermodynamic and kinetic stability will limit its use to in vitro and animal studies.

In the crystal of the title complex, [Cu(C7H6NO4S)2(C6H6N2O)2(H2O)], the CuII cation and the O atom of the coordinated water mol­ecule reside on a twofold rotation axis. The CuII ion is coordinated by two carboxyl­ate O atoms of the two symmetry-related 4-sulfamoylbenzoate (SB) anions and by two N atoms of the two symmetry-related nicotinamide (NA) mol­ecules at distances of 1.978 (2) and 2.025 (3) Å, respectively, forming a slightly distorted square-planar arrangement. The distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment is completed by the water O atom in the axial position at a distance of 2.147 (4) Å. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked via O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with R 2 2(8) and R 2 2(18) ring motifs, forming a three-dimensional architecture. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯O/O⋯H (42.2%), H⋯H (25.7%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (20.0%) inter­actions.

A rare example of chemospecificity in the tandem Diels-Alder reaction of activated alkynes and bis-dienes has been revealed. The reaction between bis-furyl dienes and DMAD occurs at 25-80 °C and leads to kinetically controlled "pincer" adducts, 4a,8a-disubstituted 1,4:5,8-diepoxynaphthalenes. On the contrary, only thermodynamically controlled "domino" adducts (2,3-disubstituted 1,4:5,8-diepoxynaphthalenes) are formed in the same reaction at 140 °C. The "pincer" adducts can be transformed to the "domino" adducts at heating. The rate constants for reactions of both types were calculated using dynamic 1 H NMR spectroscopy.

Herein we report on the different chemical reactivity displayed by two mononuclear terminal amido compounds depending on the nature of the coordinated diene. Hence, treatment of amido-bridged iridium complexes [{Ir(μ-NH 2 )(tfbb)} 3 ] (1; tfbb = tetrafluorobenzobarrelene) with dppp (dppp = bis(diphenylphosphane)propane) leads to the rupture of the amido bridges forming the mononuclear terminal amido compound [Ir(NH 2 )(dppp)(tfbb)] (3) in the first stage. On changing the reaction conditions, the formation of a C-NH 2 bond between the amido moiety and the coordinated diene is observed and a new dinuclear complex [{Ir(1,2-η 2 -4-κ-C 12 H 8 F 4 N)(dppp)} 2 (μ-dppp)] (4) has been isolated. On the contrary, the diiridium amido-bridged complex [{Ir(μ-NH 2 )(cod)} 2 ] (2; cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) in the presence of dppb (dppb = bis(diphenylphosphane)butane) allows the isolation of a mononuclear complex [Ir(1,2,3-η 3 -6-κ-C 8 H 10 )H(dppb)] (5), as a consequence of the extrusion of ammonia. The monitoring of the reaction of 2 with dppb (and dppp) allowed us to detect terminal amido complexes [Ir(NH 2 )(P-P)(cod)] (P-P = dppb (6), dppp (7)) in solution, as confirmed by an X-ray analysis of 7. Complex 7 was observed to evolve into hydrido species 5 at room temperature. DFT studies showed that C-H bond activation occurs through the deprotonation of one methylene fragment of the cod ligand by the highly basic terminal amido moiety instead of C-H oxidative addition to the Ir(i) center.

Five bis-benzamidines were screened towards murine magnesium deficiency-dependent audiogenic seizures, unravelling two compounds with efficacious doses 50 (ED(50)) less than 10mg/kg. They were also screened against maximal electroshock and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures, and explored for superoxide -scavenging activity. 1,2-Ethane bis-1-amino-4-benzamidine (EBAB) was selected and evaluated in 6 Hz seizure test (ED(50)=49 mg/kg) and at 4 microg/kg in focal cerebral ibotenate poisoning in pups (sizes of both white and grey matter wounds were halved). EBAB was further tested on NMDA-induced seizures in mice (ED(50)=6 mg/kg) and on (3)H-TC -binding to a rodent cerebral preparation (IC(50)=1.4 microM). Taken as a whole, present data emphasise the suitability of bis-benzamidines as templates for designing brain protective compounds. Copyright (c) 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

We have previously reported the antimicrobial activity of the ethyl acetate extract of Marcetia latifolia, particularly against Candida parapsilosis. In this work we describe the isolation of two new cycloartane-type triterpenes, 28,29-bis-norcycloartan-3beta,4alpha-diol (1) and 28,29-bis-norcycloart-24-en-3beta,4alpha-diol (2) from the same extract. These compounds were mainly characterized by one- (1H, 13C and APT) and two-dimensional (1H-1H-COSY, 1H-1H-NOESY, HMQC and HMBC) NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and comparison with published structural data. In addition, the activity of triterpenes 1 and 2 on the Candida protease target was investigated by in silico methods using molecular docking.

The bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine cobalt methyl complex, (iPrCNC)CoCH3, was evaluated for the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes. At 22 °C and 4 atm of H2 pressure, (iPrCNC)CoCH3 is an effective pre-catalyst for the hydrogenation of sterically hindered, unactivated alkenes such as trans-methylstilbene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, representing one of the most active cobalt hydrogenation catalysts reported to date. Preparation of the cobalt hydride complex, (iPrCNC)CoH was accomplished by hydrogenation of (iPrCNC)CoCH3. Over the course of 3 hours at 22 °C, migration of the metal-hydride to the 4-position of the pyridine ring yielded (4-H2-iPrCNC)CoN2. Similar alkyl migration was observed upon treatment of (iPrCNC)CoH with 1,1-diphenylethylene. This reactivity raised the question as to whether this class of chelate is redoxactive, engaging in radical chemistry with the cobalt center. A combination of structural, spectroscopic and computational studies was conducted and provided definitive evidence for bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine radicals in reduced cobalt chemistry. Spin density calculations established that the radicals were localized on the pyridine ring, accounting for the observed reactivity and suggest a wide family of pyridine-based pincers may also be redox active.

The heterobimetallic complexes, (η(5)-indenyl)[1-Me2Si((t)BuN)TiCl2]-3-CnH2n-[N,N-bis(2-(ethylthio)ethyl)amine]CrCl3 (n = 0, Ti-C0-Cr(SNS); n = 2, Ti-C2-Cr(SNS); n = 6, Ti-C6-Cr(SNS)), (η(5)-indenyl)[1-Me2Si((t)BuN)TiCl2]-3-C2H4-[N,N-bis((o-OMe-C6H4)2P)amine]CrCl3 (Ti-C2-Cr(PNP)), and (η(5)-indenyl)[1-Me2Si((t)BuN)TiCl2]-3-C2H4-[N,N-bis((diethylamine)ethyl)-amine]CrCl3 (Ti-C2-Cr(NNN)), are synthesized, fully characterized, and employed as olefin polymerization catalysts. With ethylene as the feed and MAO as cocatalyst/activator, SNS-based complexes Ti-C0-Cr(SNS), Ti-C2-Cr(SNS), and Ti-C6-Cr(SNS) afford linear low-density polyethylenes (LLDPEs) with exclusive n-butyl branches (6.8-25.8 branches/1000 C), while under identical polymerization conditions Ti-C2-Cr(PNP) and Ti-C2-Cr(NNN) produce polyethylenes with heterogeneous branching (C2, C4, and C≥6) or negligible branching, respectively. Under identical ethylene polymerization conditions, Ti-C0-Cr(SNS) produces polyethylenes with higher activity (4.5× and 6.1×, respectively), Mn (1.3× and 1.8×, respectively), and branch density (1.4× and 3.8×, respectively), than Ti-C2-Cr(SNS) and Ti-C6-Cr(SNS). Versus a CGC(Et)Ti + SNSCr tandem catalyst, Ti-C0-Cr(SNS) yields polyethylene with somewhat lower activity, but with 22.6× higher Mn and 4.0× greater branching density under identical conditions. In ethylene +1-pentene competition experiments, Ti-C0-Cr(SNS) yields 5.5% n-propyl branches and 94.5% n-butyl branches at [1-pentene] = 0.1 M, and the estimated effective local concentration of 1-hexene is ∼8.6 M. In contrast, the tandem CGC(Et)Ti + SNSCr system yields 91.0% n-propyl branches under identical reaction conditions. The homopolymerization and 1-pentene competition results argue that close Ti···Cr spatial proximity together with weak C-H···Ti and C-H···S interactions significantly influence relative 1-hexene enchainment and chain transfer rates, supported by DFT computation, and that such effects are conversion insensitive but cocatalyst and solvent sensitive.

The development of iron chelators suitable for the chronic treatment of diseases where iron accumulation and subsequent oxidative stress are implicated in disease pathogenesis is an active area of research. The clinical use of the strong chelator N,N'-bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid (HBED) and its alkyl ester prodrugs has been hindered by poor oral bioavailability and lack of conversion to the parent chelator, respectively. Here, we present novel double prodrugs of HBED that have the carboxylate and phenolate donors of HBED masked with carboxylate esters and boronic acids/esters, respectively. These double prodrugs were successfully synthesized as free bases (7a-f) or as dimesylate salts (8a-c,e), and were characterized by (1)H, (13)C, and (11)B NMR; MP; MS; and elemental analysis. The crystal structure of 8a was solved. Three of the double prodrugs (8a-c) were selected for further investigation into their abilities to convert to HBED by stepwise hydrolysis and H2O2 oxidation. The serial hydrolysis of the pinacol and methyl esters of N,N'-bis(2-boronic acid pinacol ester benzyl)ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid methyl ester dimesylate (8a) was verified by LC-MS. The macro half-lives for the hydrolyses of 8a-c, measured by UV, ranged from 3.8 to 26.3 h at 37 °C in pH 7.5 phosphate buffer containing 50% MeOH. 9, the product of hydrolysis of 8a-c and the intermediate in the conversion pathway, showed little-to-no affinity for iron or copper in UV competition experiments. 9 underwent a serial oxidative deboronation by H2O2 in N-methylmorpholine buffer to generate HBED (k = 10.3 M(-1) min(-1)). The requirement of this second step, oxidation, before conversion to the active chelator is complete may confer site specificity when only localized iron chelation is needed. Overall, these results provide proof of principle for the activation of the double prodrugs by chemical hydrolysis and H2O2 oxidation, and merit further investigation into the protective capabilities of the prodrugs against H2O2-induced cell death.

Ag I -containing coordination complexes have attracted attention because of their photoluminescence properties and antimicrobial activities and, in principle, these properties depend on the nature of the structural topologies. A novel two-dimensional silver(I) complex with the anti-inflammatory diclofenac molecule, namely bis{μ-2-[2-(2,6-dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetato-κ 3 O,O':O}bis(μ-2,5-dimethylpyrazine-κ 2 N:N')silver(I), [Ag 2 (C 14 H 10 Cl 2 NO 2 ) 2 (C 6 H 8 N 2 )] n , (I), has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, revealing that the Ag I ions are chelated by the carboxylate groups of the anionic 2-[2-(2,6-dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetate (dicl) ligand in a μ 3 -η 1 :η 2 coordination mode. Each dicl ligand links three Ag I atoms to generate a one-dimensional infinite chain. Adjacent chains are connected through 2,5-dimethylpyrazine (dmpyz) ligands to form a two-dimensional layer structure parallel to the crystallographic bc plane. The layers are further connected by C-H...π interactions to generate a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. Additionally, the most striking feature is that the structure contains an intramolecular C-H ...Ag anagostic interaction. Furthermore, the title complex has been tested for its in vitro antibacterial activity and is determined to be highly effective on the studied microorganisms.

H 2 L was characterized by FT-IR, MS, TGA, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, SEM and elemental analysis techniques, then fabricated as the portable strips for sensing copper (II) ions in aqueous media. The binding interaction between H 2 L and various metal ions was investigated by UV-Vis spectroscopic that showed favorable coordination toward Cu 2+ ion. H 2 L exhibited binding-induced color changes from yellow to pink and practically no interference in the presence of other metal ions, i.e., Cr 2+ , Mn 2+ , Fe 2+ , Co 2+ , Ni 2+ , Zn 2+ , Cd 2+ , Hg 2+ , Pb 2+ , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ . The chemsensor showd the color change from yellow to pink in presence of copper (II) ion in aqueous media due to binging of H 2 L and Cu (II). This sensor can determine the copper (II) at in the rang of 7.5 × 10 -8 -1.8 × 10 -5  mol L -1 with a correlation equation: Absorbance = 0.0450[Cu 2+ ] × 10 -6  + 0.71 and R 2  = 0.975 and low detection limit of 1.89 × 10 -8  mol L -1 . Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out at the B3LYP levels of theory with B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) and LANL2DZ/6-311+G(d,p) basis sets for chemosensor and its copper complex respectively. The optimized geometry, harmonic vibrational frequencies, 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR chemical, Molecular orbital (M.O.), Mulliken population analysis (MPA), contour of Electrostatic Potential (ESP) and Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MEP) map of H 2 L were calculated which show good agreement with behavior of sensor for detection of Cu 2+ ion.

Lewis basic heteroatoms orderly located inside the well-defined channels of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are potentially ideal active sites for selective gas sorption and catalysis. To develop functional MOFs with Lewis basic sites inside channels, a new C2h-symmetric dicarboxylate-based bridging ligand, 3,3'-(pyrazine-2,5-diyl)dibenzoic acid (3,3'-PDBA), was prepared by a Suzuki coupling reaction. Subsequently, two new Zn-MOFs containing the C2h-symmetric 3,3'-PDBA bridging ligand and two different bis(pyridyl)-based pillars, 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (bpa) or 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpe), were prepared through a thermal reaction in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The resulting two Zn-MOFs of the general formula of three-dimensional (3D) [Zn2(μ4-3,3'-PDBA)2(μ2-bpa)]3·(DMF)5(H2O)13 (1) or 3D-like 2D [Zn2(μ4-3,3'-PDBA)2(μ2-bpe)]·(H2O) (2) displayed primitive cubic pcu net and 2D sql net, respectively. Both Zn-MOFs 1 and 2 contain uncoordinated Lewis basic pyrazinyl nitrogen atoms in the frameworks. The solvent-free 1 with flexible bpa linkers only showed a potential porosity of 15.9% by PLATON analysis. Zn-MOF 1 with openly accessible Lewis basic sites exhibited selective sorption of CO2 over N2, H2, and CH4 at low temperature. The adsorption and desorption isotherms for CO2 sorption at 196 K showed phenomenal hysteretic behaviour indicative of a breathing process through an adsorbate-discriminatory gate-opening process toward CO2 at a low gas pressure.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Cd 2 (C 7 H 4 NO 4 ) 4 (C 6 H 4 N 2 ) 4 ], contains one Cd II atom, two 3-nitro-benzoate (NB) anions and two 3-cyano-pyridine (CPy) ligands. The two CPy ligands act as monodentate N(pyridine)-bonding ligands, while the two NB anions act as bidentate ligands through the carboxyl-ate O atoms. The centrosymmetric dinuclear complex is generated by application of inversion symmetry, whereby the Cd II atoms are bridged by the carboxyl-ate O atoms of two symmetry-related NB anions, thus completing the distorted N 2 O 5 penta-gonal-bipyramidal coordination sphere of each Cd II atom. The benzene and pyridine rings are oriented at dihedral angles of 10.02 (7) and 5.76 (9)°, respectively. In the crystal, C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, enclosing R 2 2 (26) ring motifs, in which they are further linked via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three-dimensional network. In addition, π-π stacking inter-actions between parallel benzene rings and between parallel pyridine rings of adjacent mol-ecules [shortest centroid-to-centroid distances = 3.885 (1) and 3.712 (1) Å, respectively], as well as a weak C-H⋯π inter-action, may further stabilize the crystal structure.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, (C10H8S8)[Re2Br6(CH3COO)]·0.5C2H3Cl3, contains one bis­(ethyl­enedi­thio)­tetra­thia­fulvalene (ET) radical cation, one μ2-acetato-bis­[tri­bromido­rhenate(III)] anion and a 1,1,2-tri­chloro­ethane mol­ecule with half-occupancy disordered about a twofold rotation axis. The tetra­thia­fulvalene fragment adopts an almost planar configuration typical of the ET radical cation. The C atoms of both ethyl­enedi­thio fragments in the cation are disordered over two orientations with occupancy factors 0.65:0.35 and 0.77:0.23. In the anion, six Br atoms and a μ2-acetate ligand form a strongly distorted cubic O2Br6 coordination polyhedron around the Re2 dinuclear centre. In the crystal, centrosymmetrically related ET cations and Re2O2Br6 anions are linked into dimers by π–π stacking inter­actions [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.826 (8) Å] and by pairs of additional Re⋯Br contacts [3.131 (3) Å], respectively. The dimers are further packed into a three-dimensional network by non-directional inter­ionic electrostatic forces and by C—H⋯Br and C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds. The disordered 1,1,2-tri­chloro­ethane mol­ecules occupy solvent-accessible channels along the b axis. PMID:27308025

Each features a typical pincer-type structure where the dianionic ligand is tetra­dentate, coordinating to the central tin atom through both phenolate oxygen atoms, as well as through the quinoline and imine N atoms. Each metal atom adopts a distorted penta­gonal–bipyramidal SnC2N2O3 coordination arising from the N,N′,O,O′-tetra­dentate deprotonated Schiff base, one bridging phenolate O atom of the neighbouring ligand and two butyl groups in the axial sites.

The objective of these studies was to synthesize and characterize new diols with an imidazoquinazoline ring. New diols were obtained in reactions of 2,6-bis-(ethoxycarbonylmethyl)-1-phenylimidazo[1,5-c]quinazoline-3,5-dione with excess of ethylene glycol or in reaction of 1-phenyl-2H,6H-imidazo[1,5-c]quinazoline-3,5-dione with 2-M excess of ethylene oxide. The products were isolated at high yield and characterized by instrumental methods (IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR, MS-ESI, UV, TGA). The structure of 2,6-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-phenylimidazo[1,5-c]quinazoline-3,5-dione (BEFIQ) was also investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. BEFIQ crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/n space group with two molecules in the asymmetric unit of the crystal lattice. The nature of the packing of molecules in the crystal lattice of BEFIQ was investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis. The described methods enable the synthesis of new diols with an imidazoquinazoline ring. The new diols are quite soluble in typical organic solvents. Therefore, they can be used as raw materials for the synthesis of thermally stable polymers, and they can also have biological activity.

A new series of Pd(II) macrocyclic complexes have been synthesized by template condensation of bis(benzil)4-chloro 1,2-phenylenediamine (ML 1) and bis(benzil)4-fluro 1,2-phenylenediamine (ML 2) respectively, with appropriate diamine i.e. 1,2-phenylenediamine, 4-chloro 1,2-phenylenediamine and 4-fluro 1,2-phenylenediamine in the presence of PdCl 2 to form complexes of the type [Pd(C 40H 26N 4ClF)]Cl 2, [Pd(C 40H 27N 4X)]Cl 2 and [Pd(C 40H 26N 4X 2)]Cl 2, where X = Cl, F. The complexes have been characterized with the help of elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, electronic spectra, conductance measurement, magnetic susceptibility, cyclic voltammetry and X-ray powder diffraction studies. On the basis of these studies a square planar geometry has been proposed around the metal ion. The newly synthesized ligands and their complexes have been screened for antimicrobial and pesticidal activities. The results obtained from bioassays indicate that this class of compounds can be utilized for the design of new substance with pesticidal activity and promising antimicrobial activity.

Theoretical study of interactions between 2,2-Bis (ethylferrocenyl) propane and ammonium perchlorate at low temperature

2016-05-01

In order to explore the interaction mechanism between 2,2-Bis (ethylferrocenyl) propane (GFP) and ammonium perchlorate (AP) at low temperature (below 250 °C), all the possible intermolecular interactions between GFP and AP were calculated. The calculations were performed in single molecule, cluster and slab models. The calculation results show that the interactions between GFP and AP at low temperature mainly come from GFP:-H+ and GFP-NH4+ pair interactions. We speculate that the interaction mechanism between GFP and AP at low temperature is that GFP/H+ or GFP/NH4+ interactions cause GFP to be protonated, and then protonated GFP is to further oxidized.

The complex [Fe(indH)(solvent)3](ClO4)2 (1) has been isolated from the reaction of equimolar amounts of 1,3-bis(2′-pyridylimino)isoindoline (indH) and Fe(ClO4)2 in acetonitrile and characterized by X-ray crystallography and several spectroscopic techniques. It is a suitable catalyst for the oxidation of thioanisoles and benzyl alcohols with H2O2 as the oxidant. Hammett correlations and kinetic isotope effect experiments support the involvement of an electrophilic metal-based oxidant. A metastable green species (2) is observed when 1 is reacted with H2O2 at −40 °C, which has been characterized to have a FeIII(μ-O)(μ-O2)FeIII core on the basis of UV-Vis, electron paramagnetic resonance, resonance Raman, and X-ray absorption spectroscopic data.

Cyclolinear Oligo- and Poly(iminoborane)s: The Missing Link in Inorganic Main-Group Macromolecular Chemistry.

The reaction of n-C 8 H 17 B[N(Me)SiMe 3 ] 2 (1) with n-C 8 H 17 BCl 2 (2 a) yielded, instead of a linear poly(iminoborane), the aminoborane n-C 8 H 17 B(Cl)N(Me)SiMe 3 (4) and after cyclotrimerization the borazine cyclo-(n-C 8 H 17 BNMe) 3 (6). Side reactions that result in borazine formation were effectively suppressed if 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3,2-diazaborolidines 7 were employed as co-monomers in combination with dichloro- or dibromoboranes 2 or 8, respectively. Silicon/boron exchange polycondensation led to oligo(iminoborane)s 11 a,b,ac,d. Alternative synthetic routes to such species involve Sn/B exchange of 1,3-bis(trimethylstannyl)-2-n-octyl-1,3,2-diazaborolidine (16) and n-C 8 H 17 BBr 2 (8 a), and the initiated polycondensation of the dormant monomer 14 in the presence of a Brønsted acid (HCl, HOTf, or HNTf 2 ; Tf=trifluoromethylsulfonyl). Although an attempt to obtain an oligo-/poly(iminoborane) with phenyl side groups yielded only insoluble material, the incorporation of aryl groups was proven for a derivative with both phenyl and n-octyl boron substituents (11 ac), as well as for a derivative with 4-n-butylphenyl side groups (11 d). The highest-molecular-weight sample obtained was 11 ac. Featuring about 18 catenated BN units, on average, this is the closest approach to a poly(iminoborane) known. © 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

A new imidazolidine-bridged bis(aryloxido) ligand precursor (H(2)L) [H(2)L = 2,2'-(imidazolidine-1,3-diylbis(methylene))bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl-2-yl)phenol)] was prepared in a relatively high yield (∼60%) via a single-step Mannich condensation of 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol, ethylenediamine and paraformaldehyde at 2:1:3 molar ratio and characterized by chemical and physical techniques including X-ray crystallography. Reactions of H(2)L with [VO(OEt)(3)] at 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratios in toluene afforded [V(L-κ(3)O,N,N,O)(O)(OEt)] (1) and [V(2)(μ-L-κ(4)O,N,N,O)(μ-OEt)(2)(O)(2)(OEt)(2)] (2), respectively. Alcoholysis of 1 with EtOH enables elimination of one molecule of H(2)L and the formation of 2. Compounds 1 and 2 were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as ES-MS experiments. The definitive molecular structure of 2 was provided by a single-crystal analysis and revealed its dinuclear nature, featuring two octahedral vanadium centres bridged by both OEt groups and the L ligand. The (51)V, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra as well as ES-MS showed that 2 does not stay intact in solution and undergoes dissociation to give 1 and [VO(OEt)(3)].

Modification of furfural by condensation and hydrogenation reaction is a promising approach to produce higher alkane derivatives (C8-C13) as diesel fraction. This research investigated the catalytic activity of Ni/MgO as bifunctional catalyst compared with MgO-Ni/Al2O3 mixed catalyst for condensation-hydrogenation reaction. The Ni/MgO and Ni/Al2O3 with 20% Ni loading were prepared by wet impregnation methods using Ni(NO3)2.6H2O salt, calcined and reduced at 500°C. The catalyst performance was tested for one-step condensation-hydrogenation reaction using autoclave oil batch reactor. The reaction was conducted by reacting furfural and acetone in 1:1 ratio using water as solvent. Condensation reaction was performed at 100°C for 8 hours, followed by hydrogenation at 120°C during 7 hours. Analysis by gas chromatography showed that C=C double bond of furfurylidene acetone were successfully hydrogenated. Using Ni/MgO catalyst at 120°C, the products were identified as 1,5-bis-(2-furanyl)-1,4-penta-1-ene-3-one (2.68%) and 1,5-bis-(2-furanyl)-1,4-pentan-3-one (trace amount). On the other hand, reaction using mixed catalyst, MgO-Ni/Al2O3 showed better activity over bifunctional Ni/MgO at the same reaction temperature. The products were identified as 4-(2-furanyl)-3-butan-2-one (27.30%); 1,5-bis-(2-furanyl)-1,4-penta-1-ene-3-one (3.82%) and 1,5-bis-(2-furanyl)-1,4-pentan-3-one (1.11%). The impregnation of Ni on MgO decrease the physical properties of catalyst, confirmed by surface area analysis (SAA).

The asymmetric unit of the title hydrated complex salt, (C18H14N5)2[Pt(CN)4]·4H2O, consists of one 2-[2,5-bis­(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl]pyridinium cation, half a tetra­cyanidoplatinate(II) dianion, which is located about a crystallographic inversion center, and two water mol­ecules of crystallization. The PtII atom has a square-planar coordination environment, with Pt—CCN distances of 1.992 (4) and 2.000 (4) Å. In the cation, there is an N—H⋯N hydrogen bond linking adjacent pyridinium and pyridine rings in positions 4 and 5. Despite this, the organic component is non-planar, as shown by the dihedral angles of 10.3 (2), 6.60 (19) and 15.66 (18)° between the planes of the central imidazole ring and the pyridine/pyridinium substituents in the 2-, 4- and 5-positions. In the crystal, cations and anions are linked via O—H⋯O, O—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. Additional π–π, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N contacts provide stabilization to the crystal lattice. PMID:23794972

In addition, a novel complex, [Co(bpk)(bpd-OH)Cl]ZnCl 4, 4, in which one bidentate N, N-bonded bpk ligand and one tridentate N, O, N-bonded bpd (the diol from bpk+OH -) were coordinated, was obtained via the Co(II)/O 2 synthetic route. When the bpc ligand (bpc=bis(pyridin-2-yl)methanol) was employed directly as a reagent along with dien, no condensation reactions were observed, but rather a single isomeric complex [Co(dien)(bpc)]Cl.ZnCl 4, 7, in which the ligand bpc acted as a N,N,O-bonded tridentate ligand rather than as a N,N-bidentate ligand was isolated. 13C, 1D and 2D 1H NMR studies are reported for all the complexes; they establish the structures unambiguously.

Enantioselectivities in C-H insertion reactions, employing the copper-bis(oxazoline)-NaBARF catalyst system, leading to cyclopentanones are highest with sulfonyl substituents on the carbene carbon, and furthermore, the impact is enhanced by increased steric demand on the sulfonyl substituent (up to 91%ee). Enantioselective intramolecular C-H insertion reactions of α-diazo-β-keto phosphine oxides and 2-diazo-1,3-diketones are reported for the first time.

The sterically constrained, macrocyclic, aqueous soluble ligand N,N'-bis[(6-carboxy-2-pyridyl)methyl]-1,10-diaza-18-crown-6 (H2BP18C6) was investigated for separating americium from curium and all the lanthanides by solvent extraction. Pairing H2BP18C6, which favors complexation of larger f-element cations, with acidic organophosphorus extractants that favor extraction of smaller f-element cations, such as bis-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) or (2-ethylhexyl)phosphonic acid mono(2-ethylhexyl) ester (HEH[EHP]), created solvent extraction systems with good Cm/Am selectivity, excellent trans-lanthanide selectivity (Kex,Lu/Kex,La = 108), but poor selectivity for Am against the lightest lanthanides. However, using an organic phase containing both a neutral extractant, N,N,N’,N’-tetra(2-ethylhexyl)diglycolamide (TEHDGA), and HEH[EHP] enabled rejection of the lightest lanthanides during loading ofmore » the organic phase from aqueous nitric acid, eliminating their interference in the americium stripping stages. In addition, although it is a macrocyclic ligand, H2BP18C6 does not significantly impede the mass transfer kinetics of the HDEHP solvent extraction system« less

The preparation and characterization of new heteronuclear-platinum(ii) complexes containing a 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) ligand are described. The reaction of the known starting complex [PtMe(κ 2 N,C-bipyO-H)(SMe 2 )], A, in which bipyO-H is a cyclometalated rollover 2,2'-bipyridine N-oxide, with the dppf ligand in a 2 : 1 ratio or an equimolar ratio led to the formation of the corresponding binuclear complex [Pt 2 Me 2 (κ 2 N,C-bipyO-H) 2 (μ-dppf)], 1, or the mononuclear complex [PtMe(κ 1 C-bipyO-H)(dppf)], 2, respectively. According to the reaction conditions, the dppf ligand in 1 and 2 behaves as either a bridging or chelating ligand. All complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy. The solid-state structure of 2 was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method and it was shown that the chelating dppf ligand in this complex was arranged in a "synclinal-staggered" conformation. Also, the occurrence of intermolecular C-H Cp O bipyO-H interactions in the solid-state gave rise to an extended 1-D network. The electronic absorption spectra and the electrochemical behavior of these complexes are discussed. Density functional theory (DFT) was used for geometry optimization of the singlet states in solution and for electronic structure calculations. The analysis of the molecular orbital (MO) compositions in terms of occupied and unoccupied fragment orbitals in 2 was performed.

Computational Study of Formic Acid Dehydrogenation Catalyzed by Al(III)-Bis(imino)pyridine.

The mechanism of formic acid dehydrogenation catalyzed by the bis(imino)pyridine-ligated aluminum hydride complex (PDI(2-))Al(THF)H (PDI=bis(imino)pyridine) was studied by density functional theory calculations. The overall transformation is composed of two stages: catalyst activation and the catalytic cycle. The catalyst activation begins with O-H bond cleavage of HCOOH promoted by aluminum-ligand cooperation, followed by HCOOH-assisted Al-H bond cleavage, and protonation of the imine carbon atom of the bis(imino)pyridine ligand. The resultant doubly protonated complex ((H,H) PDI)Al(OOCH)3 is the active catalyst for formic acid dehydrogenation. Given this, the catalytic cycle includes β-hydride elimination of ((H,H) PDI)Al(OOCH)3 to produce CO2, and the formed ((H,H) PDI)Al(OOCH)2 H mediates HCOOH to release H2. © 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Bis-acryl resins are used for temporary dental restorations and have shown advantages over other materials. The aim of this work was to evaluate the in vitro cytotoxicity of two bis-acryl composite resins (Protemp 4 and Luxatemp Star), obtained at 1, 7 and 40 days after mixing the resin components, using a standardized assay employing human primary cells closely related to oral tissues. Human gingival fibroblast cell cultures were exposed for 24 h to either bis-acryl composite resins, polystyrene beads (negative control) and latex (positive control) extracts obtained after incubation by the different periods, at 37 °C under 5% CO2. Cell viability was evaluated using a multiparametric procedure involving sequential assessment (using the same cells) of mitochondrial activity (XTT assay), membrane integrity (neutral red test) and total cell density (crystal violet dye exclusion test). The cells exposed to the resin extracts showed cell viability indexes exceeding 75% after 24 h. Even when cells were exposed to extracts prepared with longer conditioning times, the bis-acryl composite resins showed no significant cytotoxic effects (p>0.05), compared to the control group or in relation to the first 24 h of contact with the products. There were no differences among the results obtained for the bis-acryl composite resins evaluated 24 h, 7 days and 40 days after mixing. It may be concluded that the bis-acryl resins Protemp 4 and Luxatemp Star were cytocompatible with human gingival fibroblasts, suggesting that both materials are suitable for use in contact with human tissues.

Three symmetrical methylene-bis[(aminomethyl)phosphinic acids] bearing different substituents on the central carbon atom, (NH(2)CH(2))PO(2)H-C(R(1))(R(2))-PO(2)H(CH(2)NH(2)) where R(1) = OH, R(2) = Me (H(2)L(1)), R(1) = OH, R(2) = Ph (H(2)L(2)) and R(1),R(2) = H (H(2)L(3)), were synthesized. Acid-base and complexing properties of the ligands were studied in solution as well as in the solid state. The ligands show unusually high basicity of the nitrogen atoms (log K(1) = 9.5-10, log K(2) = 8.5-9) if compared with simple (aminomethyl)phosphinic acids and, consequently, high stability constants of the complexes with studied divalent metal ions. The study showed the important role of the hydroxo group attached to the central carbon atom of the geminal bis(phosphinate) moiety. Deprotonation of the hydroxo group yields the alcoholate anion which tends to play the role of a bridging ligand and induces formation of polynuclear complexes. Solid-state structures of complexes [H(2)N=C(NH(2))(2)][Cu(2)(H(-1)L(2))(2)]CO(3)·10H(2)O and Li(2)[Co(4)(H(-1)L(1))(3)(OH)]·17.5H(2)O were determined by X-ray diffraction. The complexes show unexpected geometries forming dinuclear and cubane-like structures, respectively. The dinuclear copper(II) complex contains a bridging μ(2)-alcoholate group with the (-)O-P(=O)-CH(2)-NH(2) fragments of each ligand molecule chelated to the different central ion. In the cubane cobalt(II) complex, one μ(3)-hydroxide and three μ(3)-alcoholate anions are located in the cube vertices and both phosphinate groups of one ligand molecule are chelating the same cobalt(II) ion while each of its amino groups are bound to different neighbouring metal ions. All such three metal ions are bridged by the alcoholate group of a given ligand.

Addition of the pendant amine ligand PNRP (PNRP = Et2PCH2NRCH2PEt2; R = Me, Ph, n-Bu) to Mn(CO)5Br gives fac-Mn(PNRP)(CO)3Br. Photolysis of fac-Mn(PNRP)(CO)3Br with dppm [dppm = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane] provides mixed bis(diphosphine) complexes, trans-Mn(PNRP)(dppm)(CO)(Br). Reaction of trans-Mn(PNRP)(dppm)(CO)(Br) with LiAlH4 leads to trans-Mn(PNRP)(dppm)(CO)(H). The crystal structure of trans-Mn(PNMeP)(dppm)(CO)(H) determined by x-ray diffraction shows an unusual distortion of the Mn-H towards one C-H of the dppm ligand, resulting in an H Mn CO angle of 155(1)° and C H • • • H Mn distance of 2.10(3) Å. Mn(P2PhN2Bn)(dppm)(CO)(H) [P2PhN2Bn = 1, 5-diphenyl-3,7-dibenzyl-1,5-diaza-3,7-diphosphacyclooctane] can be prepared in a similar manner; its structure has onemore » chelate ring in a chair conformation and the second in a boat conformation. The boat-conformer ring directs the nitrogen of the ring towards the carbonyl ligand, and the N • • • C distance between one N of the P2PhN2Bn ligand and CO is 3.171(4) Å, indicating a weak interaction between the N of the pendant amine and the CO ligand. Reaction of NaBArF4 (ArF = = 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl) with Mn(P P)(dppm)(CO)(Br) produces the cations [Mn(P P)(dppm)(CO)]+. The crystal structure of [Mn(PNMeP)(dppm)(CO)][BArF4] shows two very weak agostic interactions between C-H bonds on the phenyl ring and the Mn. The cationic complexes [Mn(P P)(dppm)(CO)]+ react with H2 to form dihydrogen complexes [Mn(H2)(P P)(dppm)(CO)]+ (Keq = 1 - 90 atm-1 in fluorobenzene, for a series of different P P ligands). Similar equilibria with N2 produce [Mn(N2)(P P)(dppm)(CO)]+ (Keq generally 1-3.5 atm-1 in fluorobenzene).

Bis(phenoxy-imine) Zr and Hf complexes were activated with (i)Bu3Al or (i)Bu2AlH in conjunction with Ph3CB(C6F5)4 and tested as catalysts for propylene polymerization with emphasis on the enantioselectivity of the isospecific species and the single site polymerization characteristics. The isoselective species was identified as the in situ generated bis(phenoxy-amine) complex whose isoselectivity was sensitive to subtle changes in ligand structure. By employing specific substituents at certain key positions the isotacticity reached an extremely high level comparable to high-end commercial isotactic polypropylenes (Tm > 160 °C). Single site polymerization characteristics depended upon the efficiency and selectivity of the in situ imine reduction which is sensitive to the substituent on the imine nitrogen and the reaction conditions. By using (i)Bu2AlH as a reducing agent, quantitative imine reduction can be achieved with a stoichiometric amount of the reducing agent. This lower alkylaluminum loading is beneficial for the catalyst and significantly enhances the polymerization activity and the molecular weight of the resultant polymer.

We report herein the synthesis and physicochemical characterization of eight new manganese-oxalato compounds with 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpe): {(Hbpe)(2)[Mn(2)(μ-ox)(3)]·∼0.8(C(2)H(5)OH)·∼0.4(H(2)O)}(n) (1), {[Mn(μ-ox)(μ-bpe)]·xH(2)O}(n) (2), [Mn(2)(μ-ox)(2)(μ-bpe)(bpe)(2)](n) (3), [Mn(μ-ox)(μ-bpe)](n) (4a and 4b), and {[Mn(4)(μ-ox)(3)(μ-bpe)(4)(H(2)O)(4)]·(X)(2)·mY}(n) with X = NO(3)(-) (5a), Br(-) (5b), and ClO(4)(-) (5c) and Y = solvation molecules. The appropriate selection of the synthetic conditions allowed us to control the crystal structure and to design extended 2D and 3D frameworks. Compound 1 is obtained at acid pH values and its crystal structure consists of stacked [Mn(2)(μ-ox)(3)](2-) layers with cationic Hbpe(+) molecules intercalated among them. Compound 2 was obtained at basic pH values with a manganese/bpe ratio of 1:1, and the resulting 3D structure consists of an interpenetrating framework in which metal-oxalato chains are bridged by bpe ligands, leading to a microporous network that hosts a variable number of water molecules (between 0 and 1) depending on the synthetic conditions. Compound 3, synthesized with a manganese/bpe ratio of 1:3, shows a 2D framework in which linear metal-oxalato chains are joined by bis-monodentate 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene ligands. The thermal treatment of compound 3 permits the release of one of the bpe molecules, giving rise to two new 2D crystalline phases of formula [Mn(μ-ox)(μ-bpe)](n) (4a and 4b) depending on the heating rate. The open structures of 5a-5c were synthesized in a medium with a high concentration of nitrate, perchlorate, or bromide salts (potassium or sodium as cations). These anions behave as templating agents directing the crystal growing toward a cationic porous network, in which the anions placed in the voids and channels of the structure present high mobility, as inferred from the ionic exchange experiments. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements show an overall antiferromagnetic behavior for all compounds, which are discussed in detail.

The barium and zinc metal cations in the dinuclear complex are linked via one chloride anion and carboxyl-ate O atoms of the tri-phenyl-acetate ligands, giving a Ba⋯Zn separation of 3.9335 (11) Å. The irregular nine-coordinate BaO8Cl coordination centres comprise eight O-atom donors, six of them from 2-meth-oxy-ethanol ligands (four from two bidentate O,O'-chelate inter-actions and two from monodentate inter-actions), two from bridging tri-phenyl-acetate ligands and one from a bridging Cl donor. The distorted tetra-hedral coordination sphere of zinc comprises two O-atom donors from the tri-phenyl-acetate ligands and two Cl donors (one bridging and one terminal). In the crystal, O-H⋯Cl, O-H⋯O and C-H⋯Cl inter-molecular inter-actions form a layered structure, lying parallel to (001).

Due to the flammability of liquid electrolytes used in lithium ion batteries, solid lithium ion conductors are of interest to reduce danger and increase safety. The two dominating general classes of electrolytes under exploration as alternatives are ceramic and polymer electrolytes. Our group has been exploring the preparation of molecular solvates of lithium salts as alternatives. Dissolution of LiCl or LiPF 6 in pyridine (py) or vinylpyridine (VnPy) and slow vapor diffusion with diethyl ether gives solvates of the lithium salts coordinated by pyridine ligands. For LiPF 6 , the solvates formed in pyridine and vinylpyridine, namely tetrakis(pyridine-κN)lithium(I) hexafluorophosphate, [Li(C 5 H 5 N) 4 ]PF 6 , and tetrakis(4-ethenylpyridine-κN)lithium(I) hexafluorophosphate, [Li(C 7 H 7 N) 4 ]PF 6 , exhibit analogous structures involving tetracoordinated lithium ions with neighboring PF 6 - anions in the I-4 and Aea2 space groups, respectively.

The asymmetric unit of the polymeric title compound, [Ni(C8H4O4)(C10H14N4)(H2O)]n, contains one Ni2+ cation, one coordinating water mol­ecule, one 3,3′,5,5′-tetra­methyl-4,4′-bi­pyrazole ligand and half each of two benzene-1,4-di­carboxyl­ate anions, the other halves being generated by inversion symmetry. The Ni2+ cation exhibits an octa­hedral N2O4 coordination sphere defined by the O atoms of the water mol­ecule and two different anions and the N atoms of two symmetry-related N-heterocycles. The N-heterocycles and both anions bridge adjacent Ni2+ cations into a three-dimensional network structure, with one of the anions in a bis-bidentate and the other in a bis-monodentate bridging mode. N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the N-heterocycles and water mol­ecules as donor groups and the carboxyl­ate O atoms as acceptor groups consolidate the crystal packing. PMID:26090165

Investigation of magnetic exchange via non-bonding halides and aromatic polyamines (1,2,4-triazine, 1,2,4,5-tetrazine and the related derivatives as ligands)

Low dimensional antiferromagnetic materials have received considerable attention from both chemists and physicists because of their potential application as functional materials, such as superconductors. Magnetic moments can propagate via multiple pathways such as via two-halide superexchange interactions in A2MX4 systems (where A is an organic cation and X is halides), or through bonding conjugated systems. One route for generating two-halide A2MX4 systems is via crystal packing of transition metal anions and organic cations. Following this method, we have prepared a series compounds in the (5-SAP)2CuX 4 family (where 5-SAP is a 5-substituted-2-aminopyridinium cation) and the A2CuX4 family. Eleven compounds have been prepared. They include bis(2-amino-5-fluoropyridinium) tetrachlorocuprate(II) (5-FAP) 2CuCl4 (1), bis(2-amino-5-fluoropyridinium) tetrabromocuprate(II) (5-FAP)2CuBr4 (2), bis(2-amino-5-iodopyridine) dibromocopper(II) (5-iap)2CuBr 2 dimer (3) and chain (4) forms, bis(2-amino-5-iodopyridine) dichlorocopper(II) hydrate (5-iap)2CuCl2·1.7H 2O (5), 2-amino-5-ammoniumpyridinium trichlorocuprate(II) chloride (DAP)(CuCl3)Cl (6), bis(2-amino-3-chloro-5-trifluoromethylpyridinium) tetrabromocuprate(II) (TMCAP)2CuBr4 (7) and its tetrachlorocuprate(II) analog (TMCAP)2CuCl4 (8), bis(4-aminopyridinium) tetrabromocuprate(II) monohydrate (4-AP) 2CuBr4-H2O (9), bis(3-methylpyridinium) tetrabromocuprate(II) (3-MP)2CuBr4 (10) and bis[methyl(2-phenylethyl)ammonium] tetrabromocuprate(II) (NMPH)2 CuBr4 (11). The structures and magnetic properties have been studied. Experimental data and theoretical calculations show that the strength of magnetic exchange is related to the geometric parameters of the non-bonding two-halide contacts, rather than direct contact between the copper(II) ions. The self-assembly technique can also be used to prepare magnetic networks. A variety of coordination polymers with magnetic properties have been synthesized based on different N-heterocyclic ligands such as pyrazine and its derivatives. Magnetic exchange can propagate through the conjugated system. As an extension of this method, we focused on using some new polyamines including 1,2,4,5-tetrazine (tetz), 1,2,4-triazine (tz) and the amino derivative 3-amino-1,2,4-triazine (atz) as ligands. Four new complexes have been prepared. They include bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)copper(II) Cu(hfac)2(C2H2N4) (13), bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)triazinecopper(II) Cu(hfac)2(tz) (15), bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)(3-aminotriazine)copper(II) Cu(hfac) 2(atz)2 (16) and hexakis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)bis(3-aminotriazine)tricopper(II) Cu3(hfac)6(atz)2 (17). The crystal structures and magnetic properties have been studied. The magnetic data show they are paramagnetic materials because of the weak coordination bonds. To compare with its atz analog, 2-aminopyrazine (apz) was also used and three new complexes have been prepared. They include hexakis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato) bis(2-amino-pyrazine)tricopper(II) Cu3(hfac)6 (apz)2 (18), bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)aminopyrazinecopper(II) Cu(hfac)2(apz)2 (19) and bis(acetylacetonato)aminopyrazinecopper(II) Cu(acac)2(apz)2 (20). The structures and their magnetic properties have been investigated.

A new trimethacrylate monomer with urethane-linked groups, 1,1,1-tri-[4-(methacryloxyethylamino-carbonyloxy)-phenyl]ethane (MPE), was synthesized, characterized, and used as a co-monomer in dentin adhesives. Dentin adhesives containing 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA, 45% w/w) and 2,2-bis[4(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloyloxy-propyloxy)-phenyl] propane (BisGMA, 30% w/w) in addition to MPE (25% w/w) were formulated with H2O at 0 (MPE0), 8 (MPE8) and 16 wt % water (MPE16) to simulate the wet demineralized dentin matrix and compared with controls [HEMA/BisGMA, 45/55 w/w, at 0 (C0), 8 (C8) and 16 wt% water (C16)]. The new adhesive showed a degree of double bond conversion and mechanical properties comparable with control, with good penetration into the dentin surface and a uniform adhesive/dentin interface. On exposure to porcine liver esterase, the net cumulative methacrylic acid (MAA) release from the new adhesives was dramatically (P < 0.05) decreased relative to the control, suggesting that the new monomer improves esterase resistance.

Ruthenium complexes are currently considered to be among the most promising alternatives to platinum anticancer drugs. In this work, thirteen structural analogues and organelle/receptor-targeting peptide bioconjugates of a cytotoxic bis(dppz)-Ru(II) complex [Ru(dppz)2 (CppH)](PF6 )2 (1) were prepared, characterized, and assessed for their cytotoxicity and cellular localization (CppH=2-(2'-pyridyl)pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid; dppz=dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine). It was observed that structural modifications (lipophilicity, charge, and size-based) result in the cytotoxic potency of 1 being compromised. Confocal microscopy studies revealed that unlike 1, the screened complexes/bioconjugates do not have a preferential accumulation in mitochondria. The results of this important structure-activity relationship strongly support our initial hypothesis that accumulation in mitochondria is crucial for 1 to exert its cytotoxic action. © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Contrary to the known 4-(2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoyl)benzoate salts, di-μ-aqua-bis[tetraaquasodium(I)] bis[4-(2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoyl)benzoate] dihydrate, [Na2(H2O)10](C23H27O3)2·2H2O, (1), does not undergo a photochemical Norrish-Yang reaction in the crystalline state. In order to explain this photochemical inactivity, the intermolecular interactions were analyzed by means of the Hirshfeld surface and intramolecular geometrical parameters describing the possibility of a Norrish-Yang reaction were calculated. The reasons for the behaviour of the title salt are similar crystalline environments for both the o-isopropyl groups in the anion, resulting in similar geometrical parameters and orientations, and that these interaction distances differ significantly from those found in salts where the photochemical reaction occurs.

Estimation of human percutaneous bioavailability for two novel brominated flame retardants, 2-ethylhexyl 2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB) and bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate (BEH-TEBP)

DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI.GOV)

Knudsen, Gabriel A., E-mail: gabriel.knudsen@nih.g

2-Ethylhexyl-2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB) and bis(2-ethylhexyl)tetrabromophthalate (BEH-TEBP) are novel brominated flame retardants used in consumer products. A parallelogram approach was used to predict human dermal absorption and flux for EH-TBB and BEH-TEBP. [{sup 14}C]-EH-TBB or [{sup 14}C]-BEH-TEBP was applied to human or rat skin at 100 nmol/cm{sup 2} using a flow-through system. Intact rats received analogous dermal doses. Treated skin was washed and tape-stripped to remove “unabsorbed” [{sup 14}C]-radioactivity after continuous exposure (24 h). “Absorbed” was quantified using dermally retained [{sup 14}C]-radioactivity; “penetrated” was calculated based on [{sup 14}C]-radioactivity in media (in vitro) or excreta + tissues (in vivo). Human skin absorbedmore » EH-TBB (24 ± 1%) while 0.2 ± 0.1% penetrated skin. Rat skin absorbed more (51 ± 10%) and was more permeable (2 ± 0.5%) to EH-TBB in vitro; maximal EH-TBB flux was 11 ± 7 and 102 ± 24 pmol-eq/cm{sup 2}/h for human and rat skin, respectively. In vivo, 27 ± 5% was absorbed and 13% reached systemic circulation after 24 h (maximum flux was 464 ± 65 pmol-eq/cm{sup 2}/h). BEH-TEBP in vitro penetrance was minimal (< 0.01%) for rat or human skin. BEH-TEBP absorption was 12 ± 11% for human skin and 41 ± 3% for rat skin. In vivo, total absorption was 27 ± 9%; 1.2% reached systemic circulation. In vitro maximal BEH-TEBP flux was 0.3 ± 0.2 and 1 ± 0.3 pmol-eq/cm{sup 2}/h for human and rat skin; in vivo maximum flux for rat skin was 16 ± 7 pmol-eq/cm{sup 2}/h. EH-TBB was metabolized in rat and human skin to tetrabromobenzoic acid. BEH-TEBP-derived [{sup 14}C]-radioactivity in the perfusion media could not be characterized. < 1% of the dose of EH-TBB and BEH-TEHP is estimated to reach the systemic circulation following human dermal exposure under the conditions tested.

Four series of dicephalic cationic surfactants, considered as new antielectrostatic agents have been investigated in order to establish their toxicity and biodegradability. Among them N,N-bis[3,3'-(dimethylamine)propyl]alkylamides, N,N-bis[3,3'-(dimethylamine)propyl]alkylamide dihydrochlorides, N,N-bis[3,3'-(trimethylammonio)propyl]alkylamide dibromides and N,N-bis[3,3'-(trimethylammonio)propyl]alkylamide dimethylsulphates with different hydrophobic chain length (n-C(9)H(19) to n-C(15)H(31)) and type of counterion (chloride, bromide and methylsulfate) have been studied. The inhibitory effect against microorganisms has been examined using model gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, and yeasts. None of the tested surfactants have shown antimicrobial activity against gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida) and yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Rhodotorula glutinis) at a concentration below 1000 μg mL(-1), however some of them were moderately active against gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis). The Microtox® test was successfully applied to measure EC(50) values of the studied dicephalic cationic surfactants. Their toxicity to Vibrio fischeri depended upon the alkanoyl chain length with the EC(50) values in a range of 2.6-980 mg L(-1). N,N-bis[3,3'-(dimethylamine)propyl]alkylamide dihydrochlorides 2a-b and N,N-bis[3,3'-(trimethylammonio)propyl]alkylamide dibromides 3a-b comprising n-decanoyl and n-dodecanoyl hydrophobic tails appeared to be the least toxic. Furthermore, the biodegradability under aerobic conditions of 2a-b, 3a-b was evaluated using OECD Method 301F. According to the obtained results 2a, 3a-3b can be considered as almost readily biodegradable and they are not expected to be persistent in the environment. Additionally, partial biodegradation was observed for 2b, indicating its possible biodegradation in wastewater treatment systems. Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, {[Cu(CO(3))(C(14)H(14)N(4))(1.5)] x 0.5 C(14)H(14)N(4) x 5 H(2)O}(n), contains one Cu(II) cation in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment, one CO(3)(2-) anion, one full and two half 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (bix) ligands, one half-molecule of which is uncoordinated, and five uncoordinated water molecules. One of the coordinated bix ligands and the uncoordinated bix molecule are situated about centers of symmetry, located at the centers of the benzene rings. The coordinated bix ligands link the copper(II) ions into a [Cu(bix)(1.5)](n) molecular ladder. These molecular ladders do not form interpenetrated ladders but are arranged in an ABAB parallel terrace, i.e. with the ladders arranged one above another, with sequence A translated with respect to B by 8 A. To best of our knowledge, this arrangement has not been observed in any of the molecular ladder frameworks synthesized to date. The coordination environment of the Cu(II) atom is completed by two O atoms of the CO(3)(2-) anion. The framework is further strengthened by extensive O-H...O and O-H...N hydrogen bonds involving the water molecules, the O atoms of the CO(3)(2-) anion and the N atoms of the bix ligands. This study describes the first example of a molecular ladder coordination polymer based on bix and therefore demonstrates further the usefulness of bix as a versatile multidentate ligand for constructing coordination polymers with interesting architectures.

A brief comparison of seven straightforward methods for molecular crystal-volume estimation revealed that their precisions are comparable. A chiral diamine, N 2 ,N 3 -bis[2,6-bis(propan-2-yl)phenyl]butane-2,3-diamine, C 28 H 44 N 2 , has been used to illustrate the application of the methods. Three stereoisomers of the diamine cocrystallize in the centrosymmetric space group P2 1 /c with Z' = 1.5. The molecules occupying general positions are RR and SS, whereas that residing on an inversion center is meso. This is one of only ten examples of three stereoisomers with two asymmetric atoms cocrystallizing together reported to the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). The conformations of the SS/RR and meso molecules differ considerably and lead to statistically significantly different C(asymmetric)-C(asymmetric) bond lengths in the diastereomers. An advanced Python script-based CSD searching technique for chiral compounds is presented.

Despite the numerous researches in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), there are only few reports on biologically important amino acids, histidine in particular, on its use as bridging ligand in the construction of open-framework architectures. In this work, hydrothermal synthesis was used to prepare a compound based on Ni2+ and histidine. The coordination assembly of imidazole side chain of histidine with divalent nickel ions in aqueous condition yielded purple prismatic solids. Single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the product revealed structure for Ni(C6H8N3O2)2 • H2O that has a monoclinic (C2) structure with lattice parameters, a = 29.41, b = 8.27, c = 6.31 Å, β = 90.01 ˚. Circular dichroism - optical rotatory dispersion (CD-ORD), Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Fourier transform - infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analyses are conducted to further characterize the crystals. Enantioselective adsorption analysis using racemic mixture of 2-butanol confirmed bis(L-histidinato)nickel(II) monohydrate MOF crystal's enantioselective property preferentially favoring the adsorption of (S)-2-butanol isomer.

The synthesis of 1,2-bis(1,5,9-triazacyclododecyl)ethane (1) showcases how different bis(alkylating) reagents change the reaction from an intra- to an intermolecular pathway. The isolation of the intermediate hexahydro-3a,6a-ethano-1H,4H,7H,9bH-9a-aza-3a,6a-diazoniaphenalene-3a,6a-diium (2) explained why initially the synthesis of 1 was not possible. Both isomers of 2 were found in solution. DFT calculations revealed that isomer 2a is 4.6 kcal/mol lower in energy than 2b. Synthesis of 1 was finally achieved by using oxalyl chloride.

Treatment of L1-L4 with two equivalents of cobaltous chloride affords the bimetallic complexes, [(L)Co2Cl4] (L = L1Co1, L2Co2, L3Co3, L4Co4), in good yield. The molecular structure of Co1 shows the two metal centers to be separated by a distance of 13.339 Å with each cobalt displaying a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. On activation with either MAO or MMAO, Co1-Co4 exhibited high activities for ethylene polymerization (up to 1.46 × 107 g(PE) mol-1(Co) h-1 at 50 °C) with their relative values influenced by the steric properties of the N-aryl groups: Co1 > Co3 > Co4 > Co2. Highly linear polyethylenes incorporating high degrees of vinyl end-groups are a feature of all the materials produced with the molecular weights of the MAO-promoted systems (Mw range = 2-8 kg mol-1) generally higher than seen with MMAO (Mw range = 1-3 kg mol-1), while the distributions using MMAO are narrower (PDI < 2.0).

The possible number of chiral and achiral tetrasubstituted [2.2]paracyclophanes possessing different types of symmetry (C(2), C(i), C(s), C(2v), C(2h)) is evaluated and a unified independent trivial naming descriptor system is introduced. The reactivity and regioselectivity of the electrophilic substitution of the chiral pseudo-meta- and achiral pseudo-para-disubstituted [2.2]paracyclophanes are investigated in an approach suggested to be general for the synthesis of bis-bifunctional [2.2]paracyclophanes. The mono- and diacylation of chiral pseudo-meta-dihydroxy[2.2]paracyclophane 14 with acetylchloride occur ortho-regioselectively to produce tri- 22, 23 and symmetrically 21 tetrasubstituted acyl derivatives. The same reaction with benzoylchloride is neither regio-, nor chemoselective, and gives rise to a mixture of ortho-/para-, mono-/diacylated compounds 27-31. The double acylation of pseudo-meta-dimethoxy[2.2]paracyclophane 18 is completely para-regioselective. Electrophilic substitution of pseudo-meta-bis(methoxycarbonyl)[2.2]paracyclophane 20 regioselectively generates the pseudo-gem-substitution pattern. Formylation of this substrate produces the monocarbonyl derivatives 35 only, whereas the Fe-catalyzed bromination may be directed towards mono- 36 or disubstitution 37 products chemoselectively by varying the reactions conditions. The diacylation and dibromination reactions of the respective achiral diphenol 12 and bis(methoxycarbonyl) 40 derivatives of the pseudo-para-structure retain regioselectivities which are characteristic for their pseudo-meta-regioisomers. Imino ligands 26, 25, and 39, which were obtained from monoacyl- 22 and diacyldihydroxy[2.2]paracyclophanes 21, 38, are tested as chiral ligands in stereoselective Et(2)Zn addition to benzaldehyde producing 1-phenylpropanol with ee values up to 76 %.

Reactions of a range of the readily prepared and sterically tunable N,N'-bis(aryl)formamidines with lanthanoid metals and bis(pentafluorophenyl)mercury (Hg(C6F5)2) in THF have given an extensive series of tris(formamidinato)lanthanoid(III) complexes, [Ln(Form)3(thf)n], namely [La(o-TolForm)3(thf)2], [Er(o-TolForm)3(thf)], [La(XylForm)3(thf)], [Sm(XylForm)3], [Ln(MesForm)3] (Ln=La, Nd, Sm and Yb), [Ln(EtForm)3] (Ln=La, Nd, Sm, Ho and Yb), and [Ln(o-PhPhForm)3] (Ln=La, Nd, Sm and Er). [For an explanation of the N,N'-bis(aryl)formamidinate abbreviations used see Scheme 1.] Analogous attempts to prepare [Yb(o-TolForm)3] by this method invariably yielded [{Yb(o-TolForm)2(mu-OH)(thf)}2], but [Yb(o-TolForm)3] was isolated from a metathesis synthesis. X-ray crystal structures show exclusively N,N'-chelation of the Form ligands and a gradation in coordination number with Ln3+ size and with Form ligand bulk. The largest ligands, MesForm, EtForm and o-PhPhForm give solely homoleptic complexes, the first two being six-coordinate, the last having an eta1-pi-Ar--Ln interaction. Reaction of lanthanoid elements and Hg(C6F5)2 with the still bulkier DippFormH in THF resulted in C--F activation and formation of [Ln(DippForm)2F(thf)] (Ln=La, Ce, Nd, Sm and Tm) complexes, and o-HC6F4O(CH2)4DippForm in which the formamidine is functionalised by a ring-opened THF that has trapped tetrafluorobenzyne. Analogous reactions between Ln metals, Hg(o-HC6F4)2 and DippFormH yielded [Ln(DippForm)2F(thf)] (Ln=La, Sm and Nd) and 3,4,5-F3C6H2O(CH2)4DippForm. X-ray crystal structures of the heteroleptic fluorides show six-coordinate monomers with two chelating DippForm ligands and cisoid fluoride and THF ligands in a trigonal prismatic array. The organometallic species [Ln(DippForm)2(C[triple chemical bond]CPh)(thf)] (Ln=Nd or Sm) are obtained from reaction of Nd metal, bis(phenylethynyl)mercury (Hg(C[triple chemical bond]CPh)2) and DippFormH, and the oxidation of [Sm(DippForm)2(thf)2] with Hg(C[triple chemical bond]CPh)2, respectively. The monomeric, six-coordinate, cisoid [Ln(DippForm)2(C[triple chemical bond]CPh)(thf)] complexes have trigonal prismatic geometries and rare (for Ln) terminal C[triple chemical bond]CPh groups with contrasting Ln--C[triple chemical bond]C angles (Ln=Nd, 170.9(4) degrees; Ln=Sm, 142.9(7) degrees). Their formation lends support to the view that [Ln(DippForm)2F(thf)] complexes arise from oxidative formation and C--F activation of [Ln(DippForm)2(C6F5)] intermediates.

The determination of crystal structures plays an important role for model testing and validation, and understanding intra and intermolecular interactions that influence crystal packing. Here, we report the molecular structure of two recently synthesized energetic molecules, 3,3-bis-isoxazole-5,5‧-bis-methylene dinitrate (C8H6N4O8, BIDN) and bis-isoxazole tetramethylene tetranitrate (C10H8N6O14, BITN) determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction and solid state density functional theory (DFT). BIDN is composed of two planar alkyl nitrate groups (r.m.s deviation = 0.0004 (1) Å) bonded to two planar azole rings (r.m.s deviation = 0.001 (1) Å, whereas BITN is composed of four planar alkyl nitrate groups (average r.m.s deviation = 0.002 (1) Å) bonded to two planar azole rings (average r.m.s deviation = 0.002 (1) Å). The theoretical calculations predict very well the planarity of both the alkyl nitrate groups and rings for both compounds. Furthermore, they predict well the bond lengths and angles of both molecules with mean deviation values of 0.018 Å (BIDN) and 0.017 Å (BITN) and 0.481° (BIDN) and 0.747° (BITN). Overall, the DFT determined torsion angles agree well with those determined experimentally for both BIDN (average deviation = 1.139°) and BITN (average deviation = 0.604°). The theoretical cell constant values are in excellent agreement with those determined experimentally for both molecules, with the BIDN a cell value and β angle showing the largest deviation, 2.1% and -1.3%, respectively. Contacts between the atoms N and H dominate the intermolecular interactions of BIDN, whereas contacts involving the atoms O and H dominate the BITN intermolecular interactions. Electrostatic potential calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G* level reveal BIDN exhibits a lower sensitivity to impact compared to BITN.

The investigation of the structural changes of the clusters has been probed by introducing different bridging phosphine ligands. This class of gold(I) μ(3)-ferrocenylmethylphosphido complexes has been found to exhibit one reversible oxidation couple, suggestive of the absence of electronic communication between the ferrocene units through the Au(6)P(2) cluster core, providing an understanding of the electronic properties of the hexanuclear Au(I) cluster linkage. The present complexes also serve as an ideal system for the design of multi-electron reservoir and molecular battery systems.

In addition, due to the presence of rare earth ions, these ionic liquids show a response to magnetic fields with the highest effective magnetic moment observed so far for an ionic liquid and are rare examples of ionicmore » liquids showing luminescence in the near-infrared. As a result, these ionic liquids also were successfully employed in a three-component synthesis of 2-pyrrolo-3'-yloxindole with an extremely low (<0.035 mol%) catalyst loading rate.« less

The infra-red (IR) spectroscopic data for a series of 45 homoleptic unsubstituted and substituted bis(phthalocyaninato) rare earth complexes M(Pc)2 and M(Pc*)2 [M=Y, La...Lu except Pm; H2Pc=phthalocyanine; H2Pc*=2,3,9,10,16,17,24,25-octakis(octyloxy)phthalocyanine (H2OOPc) and 2(3),9(10),16(17),24(25)-tetra(tert-butyl)phthalocyanine (H2TBPc)] have been collected with resolution of 2 cm(-1). The IR spectra for M(Pc)2 and M(OOPc)2 are much simpler than those of M(TBPc)2, revealing the relatively higher symmetry of the former two compounds. For M(Pc)2 the Pc-* marker band at 1312-1323 cm(-1), attributed to the pyrrole stretching, and the isoindole stretching band at 1439-1454 cm(-1) are found to be dependent on the central rare earth size, shifting slightly to the higher energy along with the decrease of rare earth radius. The frequency of the vibration at 876-887 cm(-1) is also dependent on the rare earth ionic size. The metal size-sensitivity of this band and theoretical studies render it possible to re-assign it to the coupling of isoindole deformation and aza vibration. The nature of another metal-sensitive vibration mode at 1110-1116 cm(-1), which was previously assigned to the C-H bending, is now re-assigned as an isoindole breathing mode with some small contribution also from C-H in-plane bending. These assignments are supported by comparative studies of the IR spectra of substituted bis(phthalocyaninato) analogues M(OOPc)2 and M(TBPc)2. By comparison between the IR spectra of unsubstituted and substituted bis(phthalocyaninato) rare earth analogues and according to the IR characteristics of alkyl groups, some characteristic vibrational fundamentals due to the Pc rings and the substituents can be separately identified. In conclusion, all the metal size-dependent IR absorptions are composed primarily of the vibrations of pyrrole or isoindole stretching, breathing or deformation or aza stretching of the Pc ring.

Three new energetic complexes, [Pb(bta)(H 2 O)] n (1), [PbCu(bta) 2 (H 2 O) 5 ]·2H 2 O (2) and PbCu(bta) 2 (3) (H 2 bta = N,N-bis(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)-amine), have been synthesized and characterised. In particular, 3 was readily synthesized by dehydration of 2 at 190 °C. Single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that 1 has a 3D framework structure and 2 presents a 3D supermolecular architecture. Thermoanalyses demonstrated that the main frames of 1 and 2 have good thermostabilities up to 314 °C for 1 and 231 °C for 2. Non-isothermal kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of exothermic decomposition processes of 1 and 2 were obtained by Kissinger's and Ozawa's methods. Based on the constant-volume combustion energies measured by a precise rotating-bomb calorimeter, the standard molar enthalpies of formation of 1 and 2 were determined. The calculation of the detonation properties of 1 and 2 and the impact sensitivity tests of 1, 2 and 3 were carried out. In addition, 1, 2 and 3 were explored as combustion promoters to accelerate the thermal decompositions of RDX (1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine) by differential scanning calorimetry. Experimental results showed that 1, 2 and 3 can be used as HEDMs in the field of combustion promoters and insensitive 2 can be regarded as a safer form for mass storage and transportation than sensitive 3.

To assemble metal-organic supramolecules such as a metallamacrocycle and metal-organic coordination cage (MOCC), a series of flexible dicarboxylate ligands with the appropriate angle, 2,2'-(2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-phenylene)bis(methylene)bis(sulfanediyl)dibenzoic acid (H(2)L(1)), 2,2'-(2,5-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene)bis(methylene)bis(sulfanediyl)dibenzoic acid (H(2)L(2)), 2,2'-(2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-phenylene)bis(methylene)bis(sulfanediyl)dinicotinic acid (H(2)L(3)), and 2,2'-(2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-phenylene)bis(methylene)bis(sulfanediyl)dibenzoic acid (H(2)L(4)), have been designed and synthesized. Using these flexible ligands to assemble with metal ions, six metal-organic supramolecules, Cd(2)(L(1))(2)(dmf)(4)(H(2)O)(2).H(2)O (1), Mn(3)((1)L(2))(2)((2)L(2))(dmf)(2)(H(2)O)(2).5dmf (2), Cu(4)(L(3))(4)(H(2)O)(4).3dmf (3), Cu(4)(L(4))(4)(dmf)(2)(EtOH)(2).8dmf.6H(2)O (4), Mn(4)(L(4))(4)(dmf)(4)(H(2)O)(4).6dmf.H(2)O (5), and Mn(3)(L(4))(3)(dmf)(4).2dmf.3H(2)O (6), possessing a rectangular macrocycle, MOCCs or their extensions, and 1D or 2D coordination polymers, have been isolated. All complexes have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. Complex 1 is a discrete rectangular macrocycle, while complex 2 is a 2D macrocycle-based coordination polymer in which the L(2) ligand adopts both syn and anti conformations. Complexes 3-5 are discrete MOCCs in which two binuclear metal clusters are engaged by four organic ligands. The different geometries of the secondary building units (SBUs) and the axial coordinated solvates on the SBUs result in their different symmetries. Complex 6 is a 1D coordination polymer, extended from a MOCC made up of two metal ions and three L(4) ligands. All of the flexible dicarboxylate ligands adopt a syn conformation except that in complex 2, indicating that the syn conformational ligand is helpful for the formation of a metallamacrocycle and a MOCC. The magnetic properties of complexes 5 and 6 have also been studied.

The synthesis, characterization, theoretical calculations, and safety studies of energetic salts of 1,2- bis(oxyamino) ethane, (H2N-O-CH2-CH2-O-NH2), were carried out. The salts were characterized by vibrational (infrared, Raman), multinuclear nmr studies (1H, 13C), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC); elemental analysis; and initial safety testing (impact and friction sensitivity) . Theoretical calculations on the neutral, monoprotonated, and doubly protonated species of ethylene bisoxyamine were carried out using xxxx level of theory for the lowest energy structure and these theoretical results compared with the experimentally observed bond distances and vibrational (ir, Raman) frequency values. The single crystal X-ray diffraction study was carried out on the mono-perchlorate salt revealing a high degree of hydrogen bonding with an unexpected structure.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(36)H(32)N(2) (2+)·2I(-), consists of one half-mol-ecule of the cation and one I(-) anion. The cation is located on an inversion centre. The dihedral angle between the pyridinium ring and the naphthalene ring system in the asymmetric unit is 19.01 (14)°. In the crystal, the cations and the anions are linked by C-H⋯I inter-actions into a layer parallel to the bc plane. Intra- and inter-molecular π-π inter-actions with centroid-centroid distances of 3.533 (2)-3.807 (2) Å are also observed.

The compound 5 is a novel compound and has never been reported in the literature. Their crystal structures were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. They all crystallize in the monoclinic system. The single-crystal X-ray revealed that compound 5 has infinite X-shaped 1-D polymeric chains structure and compound 6 has a layered 3-D structure by intermolecular interactions. Hirshfeld surface analysis demonstrated the presence of H⋯H, O⋯H, C⋯H, F⋯H, Csbnd H⋯π and π⋯π intermolecular interactions. In addition, the MTT assay results indicated that the compounds 5 and 6 display effective activities against neurotoxicity which is induced by glutamine in PC12 cells. The in vivo experiment indicated that the compound 6 has a good protective effect on cerebral infarction.

The molecular structures of Cr1 and Cr4 reveal distorted octahedral geometries with the N,N,N-ligand adopting a mer-configuration. On activation with an aluminium alkyl co-catalyst, Cr1-Cr5 exhibited high catalytic activities in ethylene polymerization and showed outstanding thermal stability operating effectively at 80 °C with activities up to 1.49 × 10 7 g of PE (mol of Cr) -1 h -1 . Significantly, the nature of the co-catalyst employed had a dramatic effect on the molecular weight of the polymeric material obtained. For example, using diethylaluminium chloride (Et 2 AlCl) in combination with Cr4 gave high density/high molecular weight polyethylene with broad molecular weight distributions (30.9-39.3). By contrast, using modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO), strictly linear polyethylene waxes of lower molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution (1.6-2.0) were obtained with vinyl end-groups.

π-Conjugated organic materials exhibit high and tunable nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, and fast response times. 4'-Phenyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (PTP) is an important N-heterocyclic ligand involving π-conjugated systems, however, studies concerning the third-order NLO properties of terpyridine transition metal complexes are limited. The title binuclear terpyridine Co(II) complex, bis(μ-4,4'-oxydibenzoato)-κ(3)O,O':O'';κ(3)O'':O,O'-bis[(4'-phenyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-κ(3)N,N',N'')cobalt(II)], [Co2(C14H8O5)2(C21H15N3)2], (1), has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. In the crystal structure, each Co(II) cation is surrounded by three N atoms of a PTP ligand and three O atoms, two from a bidentate and one from a symmetry-related monodentate 4,4'-oxydibenzoate (ODA(2-)) ligand, completing a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Neighbouring [Co(PTP)](2+) units are bridged by ODA(2-) ligands to form a ring-like structure. The third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of (1) and PTP were determined in thin films using the Z-scan technique. The title compound shows a strong third-order NLO saturable absorption (SA), while PTP exhibits a third-order NLO reverse saturable absorption (RSA). The absorptive coefficient β of (1) is -37.3 × 10(-7) m W(-1), which is larger than that (8.96 × 10(-7) m W(-1)) of PTP. The third-order NLO susceptibility χ((3)) values are calculated as 6.01 × 10(-8) e.s.u. for (1) and 1.44 × 10(-8) e.s.u. for PTP.

A mononuclear tantallacyclopentadiene complex, TaCl 3 (C 4 H 2 tBu 2 ) (3), serves as a unique ligand to nickel: the addition of Ni(COD) 2 to 3 selectively afforded heterobimetallic Ta-Ni complex 4. The cyclooctadiene ligand bound to the nickel center in complex 4 was readily substituted by monodentate and bidentate phosphine ligands, such as dimethylphenylphosphine, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, and 1,2-bis(diethylphosphino)ethane, to give the corresponding phosphine complexes 5, 6a, and 6b. We also examined a ligand substitution reaction with 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (IPr) to produce the corresponding Ta-Ni complex 7. These newly prepared Ta-Ni heterobimetallic complexes were characterized spectroscopically together with the crystal structures of 4, 6a, and 7.

With the application of a double dienophile 1,1'-(hexane-1,6-diyl)bis(1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione) for a [4+2] cycloaddition with a substituted 2H-pyran-2-one a novel 26-membered tetraaza heteromacrocyclic system 3 was prepared via a direct method under solvent-free conditions with microwave irradiation. The macrocycle prepared is composed of two units of the dienophile and two of the diene. The structure of the macrocycle was characterized on the basis of IR, 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectroscopy, as well as by the elemental analysis and melting point determination. With X-ray diffraction of a single crystal of the macrocycle we have determined that the two acetyl groups (attached to the bridging double bond of the bicyclo[2.2.2]octene fragments) are oriented towards each other (and also towards the inside of the cavity of the macrocycle), therefore, mostly filling it completely.

PS1 and PS13 were labeled from phenol precursors by O- 11 C-methylation with [ 11 C]iodomethane and PS2 by O- 18 F-fluoroalkylation with [ 2 H 2 , 18 F]fluorobromomethane. Here, we evaluated these PET radioligands in monkey. All three radioligands gave moderately high uptake in brain, although [ 2 H 2 , 18 F]PS2 also showed undesirable radioactivity uptake in skull. [ 11 C]PS13 was selected for further evaluation, mainly based on more favorable brain kinetics than [ 11 C]PS1. Pharmacological preblock experiments showed that about 55% of the radioactivity uptake in brain was specifically bound to COX-1. An index of enzyme density, V T , was well identified from serial brain scans and from the concentrations of parent radioligand in arterial plasma. In addition, V T values were stable within 80 min, suggesting that brain uptake was not contaminated by radiometabolites. [ 11 C]PS13 successfully images and quantifies COX-1 in monkey brain, and merits further investigation for imaging COX-1 in monkey models of neuroinflammation and in healthy human subjects.

The title dinuclear complex, [Re 2 (C 13 H 8 NOS) 2 (CO) 6 ], crystallizes in two polymorphs where the 2-(1,3-benzo-thia-zol-2-yl)phenolate ligands and two carbonyl groups are trans - ( I ) or cis -arranged ( II ) with respect to the [Re 2 O 2 (CO) 4 ] core. Polymorphs I and II exhibit a crystallographically imposed centre of symmetry and a twofold rotation axis, respectively. The structures may be described as being formed by two octa-hedrally distorted metal-coordinating units fused through μ-oxido bridges, leading to edge-sharing dimers. The crystal packing is governed by C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions, forming chains parallel to the c axis in I and a three-dimensional network in II .

(9 S ,13 S ,14 S )-3-Meth-oxy-17-methyl-morphinan (dextromethorphan) forms two isostructural salts with ( a ) tetra-chlorido-cobaltate, namely bis-[(9 S ,13 S ,14 S )-3-meth-oxy-17-methyl-morphinanium] tetra-chlorido-cobaltate, (C 18 H 26 NO) 2 [CoCl 4 ], and ( b ) tetra-chlorido-cuprate, namely bis-[(9 S ,13 S ,14 S )-3-meth-oxy-17-methyl-morphinanium] tetra-chlorido-cuprate, (C 18 H 26 NO) 2 [CuCl 4 ]. The distorted tetra-hedral anions are located on twofold rotational axes. The dextromethorphan cation can be described as being composed of two ring systems, a tetra-hydro-naphthalene system A + B and a deca-hydro-isoquinolinium subunit C + D , that are nearly perpendicular to one another: the angle between mean planes of the A + B and C + D moieties is 78.8 (1)° for ( a ) and 79.0 (1)° for ( b ). Two symmetry-related cations of protonated dextromethorphan are connected to the tetra-chlorido-cobaltate (or tetra-chlorido-cuprate) anions via strong N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming neutral ion associates. These associates are packed in the (001) plane with no strong attractive bonding between them. Both compounds are attractive crystalline forms for unambiguous identification of the dextromethorphan and, presumably, of its optical isomer, levomethorphan.

Two new ferrocenyl-cymantrenyl bimetallic chalcones, [(CO)3Mn(η5-C5H4)C(O)CHdbnd CH(η5-C5H4)Fe(η5-C5H5)] (1) and [{(CO)3Mn(η5-C5H4)C(O)CHdbnd CH(η5-C5H4)}2Fe] (2) have been synthesized. Their reactivity study with triphenylphosphine and bis-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene led to the isolation of phosphine substituted bimetallic chalcones (3-6). Single crystal X-ray structural characterization for 1 and its phosphine analogue (3) reveals their different conformational identity with anti-conformation for 1, while syn-conformation for 3. Investigation of antimalarial and antibacterial activities was carried out for compounds 1 and 2 against two strains of Plasmodium falciparum (3D7, K1) and four bacterial strains. TD-DFT calculation was performed for compound 1 and electrochemical properties were studied for bimetallic chalcone compounds by cyclic voltammetric technique.

Trianionic energetic salts based on one nitromethylene and two dinitromethyl anions were designed and synthesized. Interestingly, the unstable dinitromethylene group of diethyl 2,2'-((dinitromethylene)bis(1,3,4-oxadiazole-5,2-diyl))bis(2,2-dinitroacetate) (2) was changed to a mononitromethylene group by an aminolysis reaction to form triammonium ((nitromethanidylene)bis(1,3,4-oxadiazole-5,2-diyl))bis(dinitromethanide) (3), whereas in (dinitrobis(5-(trinitromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methan) 8 it was hydrolyzed to a carbonyl group resulting in (bis(5-(trinitromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methanone) 9. All the new compounds were fully characterized by infrared, multinuclear NMR spectra, and elemental analysis. The structures of triammonium ((nitromethanidylene)bis(1,3,4-oxadiazole-5,2-diyl))bis(dinitromethanide) dihydrate (3⋅2 H 2 O) and bis(2-dinitromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-yl)methanone (9) were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Based on their different physical and detonation properties, some of the energetic salts were found to exhibit good energetic performance and low sensitivity. © 2017 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

A series of water-soluble isomer bis(pyrrolidinium) salts, with C{sub 60}(C{sub 4}H{sub 10}N{sup +}){sub 2} as cationic moiety (2a--2d), were probed in radical- and light-induced reduction studies and compared to bis(carboxylates) C{sub 60}[C(COO{sup {minus}}){sub 2}]{sub 2} and to {gamma}-CD-encapsulated C{sub 60}. Pulse radiolytic reduction of 2a--2d with hydrated electrons and (CH{sub 3}){sub 2}{sup {sm{underscore}bullet}}COH radicals leads to the formation of the fullerene {pi}-radical anion, exhibiting fingerprint absorption characteristics in the near-IR region. Because of the electron-withdrawing nature of the pyrrolidinium groups the electron-acceptor properties of the investigated bis(pyrrolidinium) salts are markedly improved relative to the bis(carboxylates) (C{sub 60}[C(COO{sup {minus}}){sub 2}]{sub 2})more » and also relative to C{sub 60}. For example, the rate constants for the fullerene reduction of 2a--2d with hydrated electrons ((0.88--2.2) x 10{sup 10} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}) and (CH{sub 3}){sub 2}{sm{underscore}bullet}COH radicals ((4.7--7.1) x 10{sup 8} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}) are clearly faster than those noted for C{sub 60}[C(COO{sup {minus}}){sub 2}]{sub 2} (e{sub aq}{sup {minus}}: (0.19--0.34) x 10{sup 10} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}; (CH{sub 3}){sub 2}{sup {sm{underscore}bullet}}COH: (0.9--2.2) x 10{sup 8}M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}), and C{sub 60} (e{sub aq}{sup {minus}}: 1.8 x 10{sup 10} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}; (CH{sub 3}){sub 2}{sup {sm{underscore}bullet}}COH: 2.7 x 10{sup 8} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}). Photolysis of 2a--2d gives rise to singlet excited state absorptions that closely resemble earlier observations for the pyrrolidine precursor, e.g., C{sub 60}(C{sub 3}H{sub 7}N){sub 2} (1a--1d) in deoxygenated toluene solutions. The triplet lifetimes of 2a--2d, as measured by nanosecond-resolved photolysis, are typically around 33 {mu}s, similar to the triplet lifetimes of truly monomeric fullerene solutions. Quenching experiments with diszabicyclooctane (DABCO), involving the triplet excited states of 2a--2d, yielded rate constants which vary between 2.5 x 10{sup 6} and 4.7 x 10{sup 6} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1} and reveal a slow-down relative to C{sub 60}(7.4 x 10{sup 7} M{sup {minus}1} s{sup {minus}1}).« less

The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C9H14O4S3, exhibits intra-molecular C-H⋯S hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of centrosymmetric dimers, which are in turn connected by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions. The combination of these inter-actions generates edge-fused R 2 (2)(8) and R 2 (2)(20) rings running along [211].

Both crystal structures were determined and described by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and Hirshfeld surfaces computational method. All Mg(II) atoms are surrounded by four porphyrin nitrogen atoms and two axial ligands coordinated to the metal ion through one nitrogen atom, forming a regular octahedron. In both complexes, molecular structures and three-dimensional framework are stabilised by inter-and intramolecular C-H ⋯O and C-H ⋯N hydrogen bonds, and by weak C-H ⋯Cg π interactions. UV-visible and Fluorescence investigations, respectively, show that studied complexes have a strong absorption in red part and exhibit an emission in the blue region. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap values, modelled using the DFT approach, indicates that both studied compounds can be classified as semiconductors. The role of these complexes as novel antibacterial agents was also performed.

Bis(4-fluorobenzyl)trisulfide, fluorapacin, has been extensively developed as a promising new anticancer drug candidate. Its degradation products were identified and verified by the newly synthesized compounds bis(4-fluorobenzyl)disulfide (A) and bis(4-fluorobenzyl)tetrasulfide (B) which were resulted from the disproportionation of fluorapacin under forced conditions. A stability-indicating HPLC method was used for the stability evaluation of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) fluorapacin and finished pharmaceutical product (FPP) under various conditions. High recovery (99.57%) of API was found after three freeze-thaw cycle processes of fluorapacin FPP. Susceptibility of fluorapacin to oxidative degradation was studied by treating fluorapacin and FPP in 30% hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution, and the result verified the oxidative stability of fluorapacin. However, treatment of this drug candidate under strong light (4500 Lx+/-500 Lx) for 10 days showed substantial effect on the recovery of fluorapacin, especially from fluorapacin FPP. Strong acid (1.0M, HCl) did not affect the recovery of fluorapacin while strong basic condition (1.0M, NaOH) accelerated the disproportionation of fluorapacin to its related substances A and B. The stability of fluorapacin in its aqueous media at a pH range of 2.0-10.0 for up to 6h was further investigated, and 4.0-8.0 was found to be the most stable pH range. Fluorapacin and FPP were exposed to the elevated temperatures of 40 and 60 degrees C for 10 days without obvious impact on their stability. The thermal stability of fluorapacin API and FPP under constant humidity with light protection was also thoroughly investigated under accelerated (40+/-2 degrees C, RH 75+/-5%, 6 months) and long-term (25+/-2 degrees C, RH 60+/-10%, 24 months) conditions. There was no significant change except minor color change of fluorapacin FPP. Therefore, fluorapacin has excellent stability as a potential drug candidate for further clinical development investigation.

Herein, rare-earth metal dialkyl complexes supported by a neutral pyrrolyl-functionalized β-diketiminato ligand with the formula LRE(CH 2 SiMe 3 ) 2 (thf) (RE = Y (1a), Dy (1b), Er (1c), Yb (1d); L = MeC(NDipp)CHC(Me)NCH 2 CH 2 NC 4 H 2 -2,5-Me 2 , Dipp = 2,6- i Pr 2 C 6 H 3 ) were synthesized via the reactions of the β-diketimine HL with the rare-earth metal trialkyl complexes RE(CH 2 SiMe 3 ) 3 (thf) 2 in high yields. The reactivities of 1 with pyridine derivatives, unsaturated substrates, and elemental sulfur were investigated, and some interesting chemical transformations were observed. Ligand exchange and activation of sp 2 and sp 3 C-H bonds occurred during the reactions with pyridine derivatives to afford different types of mononuclear rare-earth metal pyridyl complexes, namely, LEr(CH 2 SiMe 3 ) 2 (η 1 -NC 5 H 4 ) (2c), LRE(η 3 -CH 2 -2-NC 5 H 2 -4,6-Me 2 ) 2 (RE = Y (3a), Er (3c)), and LRE(CH 2 SiMe 3 )(η 2 -(C,N)-2-(2-C 6 H 4 NC 5 H 4 )) (RE = Er (4c), Yb = (4d)). Similarly, activation of the sp C-H bond occurred during the reaction of phenylacetylene with 1c to produce the dinuclear erbium alkynyl complex [LEr(CH 2 SiMe 3 )(μ-C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh)] 2 (5c). The mixed amidinate-β-diketiminato ytterbium complex LYb[(Dipp)NC(CH 2 SiMe 3 )N(Dipp)](CH 2 SiMe 3 ) (6d) was obtained by the insertion of bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)carbodiimide into a Yb-alkyl bond, as well as via the direct alkane elimination of a CH 2 SiMe 3 moiety with bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)formamidine to afford the erbium complex LEr(DippNCHNDipp)(CH 2 SiMe 3 ) (7c). A rare sp 2 C-H bond oxidation of the β-diketiminato backbone with elemental sulfur insertion was detected to provide the unprecedented dinuclear rare-earth metal thiolate complexes (LRE) 2 (μ-SCH 2 SiMe 3 ) 2 (μ-SCC(Me)(NDipp)C(Me)NCH 2 CH 2 NC 4 H 2 Me 2 -2,5) (RE = Y (8a), Er (8c)) in the reactions of S 8 with 1a and 1c, respectively.

Density functional theory (DFT) is used to explore the competitive C-H and C-Cl oxidative additions (OA) of chlorobenzene to the neutral Ir(i) complex: (PNP)Ir(I) [PNP = bis(Z-2-(dimethylphosphino)vinyl)amino]. Consistent with experimental results, our calculation shows that C-H OA is kinetically favored with an activation free-energy barrier of DeltaG(double dagger) = 17.2 kcal mol(-1) that is significantly lower than that for the C-Cl activation at DeltaG(double dagger) = 24.2 kcal mol(-1). However, C-Cl OA is thermodynamically preferred and the C-Cl OA product is 22.6 kcal mol(-1) more stable than the most stable C-H OA product. The calculations also show that the lowest energy path for the conversion of the C-H OA product to the more stable C-Cl OA product is intramolecular through a "benzyne"-type intermediate.

Structural analyses indicate that hydrogen-bonding patterns of H2PO4- anions, conformation of protonated cations can effectively influence the supramolecular architectures through diverse non-covalent interactions. Hydrous salts 1-3 and 7 present 2D and 3D host-guest supramolecular networks, in which the connection of H2PO4- anions and water molecules generates diverse tape and layer motifs. H2PO4- anions in anhydrous salts 4-6 interconnect with each other through hydrogen bonds to form two types of layers, which are joined by discrete H4M4+ cations into 3D inorganic-organic hybrid supramolecular networks. Salts 8-9 also present 2D and 3D host-guest supramolecular networks where the interconnection of H2PO4- anions and its combination with H3PO4 molecules leads to diverse layers. Luminescent analyses indicate that salts 1-9 exhibit violet and blue emission maximum in the range of 390-467 nm at room temperature.

Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) method is used to calculate the UV-visible spectrum of NDHA. Vibrational frequencies are determined experimentally and compared with those obtained theoretically. Vibrational assignments and analysis of the fundamental modes of the compound are also performed. All theoretical methods can well reproduce the structure of the compound. The (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR chemical shifts calculated by all DFT methods are consistent with the experimental data. However, the NMR shielding tensors computed at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory are in better agreement with experimental (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR spectra. The electronic absorption spectrum calculated at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level by using TD-DFT method is in accordance with the observed UV-visible spectrum of NDHA. In addition, some quantum descriptors of the molecule are calculated and conformational analysis is performed and the results were compared with the crystallographic data.

A series of alkyl aluminium complexes based on heteroscorpionate ligands were designed as catalysts for the ring-opening polymerisation of cyclic esters and ring-opening copolymerisation of epoxides and anhydrides. Treatment of AlX3 (X = Me, Et) with ligands bpzbeH [bpzbe = 1,1-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-3,3-dimethyl-2-butoxide], bpzteH [bpzte = 2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1-para-tolylethoxide], and (R,R)-bpzmmH [(R,R)-bpzmm = (1R)-1-{(1R)-6,6-dimethyl-bicyclo[3.1.1]-2-hepten-2-yl}-2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethoxide] for 2 hours at 0 °C afforded the mononuclear dialkyl aluminium complexes [AlMe2{κ2-bpzbe}] (1), [AlEt2{κ2-bpzbe}] (2), [AlMe2{κ2-(R,R)-bpzmm}] (3) and [AlEt2{κ2-(R,R)-bpzmm}] (4), and the dinuclear dialkyl complexes [AlMe2{κ2-bpzte}]2 (5) and [AlEt2{κ2-bpzte}]2 (6). The molecular structures of the new complexes were determined by spectroscopic methods and confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The alkyl-containing aluminium complexes can act as highly efficient single-component initiators for the ring-opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone and l-lactide and for the ring-opening copolymerisation of cyclohexene oxide and phthalic anhydride to give a range of biodegradable polyesters.

Using an improved, chromatography-free dipyrrin synthesis, the α,β-unsubstituted dipyrrins [RC(C 4 H 2 N) 2 H] (2) (R = tolyl (2toly l ), p-OMe-C 6 H 4 (2anis), mesityl (2mes), ferrocenyl (2Fc)) were isolated in good to excellent yields. Deprotonation of 2 with Na[N(SiMe 3 ) 2 ] gives the alkali metal salts [Na(DME) n ][RC(C 4 H 2 N) 2 ] (3) which reacts with UO 2 Cl 2 (THF) 3 to give the uranyl bis(dipyrrinates) UO 2 [RC(C 4 H 2 N) 2 ] 2 (L) (L = THF (4R-THF); DMAP (4R-DMAP)) (R = tolyl, p-OMe-C 6 H 4 , mesityl, ferrocenyl). The THF adducts, 4R-THF, are unstable in aromatic and nonpolar solvents and rapidly decompose to 2 and an intractable uranium-containing solid. On the other hand, the DMAP adducts, 4R-DMAP, are indefinitely stable in solution. The solid-state structures of 4R-THF and 4R-DMAP reveal distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometries. In the solid-state, the dipyrrinate ligands exhibit significant distortions including bowing and, in some instances, out-of-plane equatorial N-atom coordination, likely as a consequence of steric crowding and interligand repulsion. The complexes, 4R-DMAP, have been fully characterized by NMR, UV/Vis, and fluorescence spectroscopies, and their electrochemical properties have been investigated through cyclic voltammetry. The cyclic voltammograms of 4R-DMAP display several redox features but present a reversible wave at ca. -1.9 V (vs. Fc 0/+ ) attributable to a ligand centred reduction. Fluorescence measurements of all compounds reveal that only the mesityl derivatives 2mes, 3mes, and 4mes fluoresce with modest Stokes shift that ranges from ca. 30-70 nm, with 4mes displaying the greatest relative emission intensity.

The salts exhibit an intricate network of hydrogen bonds between low-spin iron(ii) complexes and carboxylate dianions, with solvent molecules sitting in the voids. Desolvation is accompanied by a low-spin (LS) to high-spin (HS) transformation in the materials. The dehydrated phase 2 undergoes a two-step transition with a second step showing thermal hysteresis (T 1/2 ↑ = 139 K and T 1/2 ↓ = 118 K). 2 displays a quantitative LS to HS photomagnetic conversion, with a T(LIESST) value of 63 K.

The application of the new compound as a dopant in the hole transporting layer (HTL) of Organic light emitting diode (OLED) structure: HTL/EL/ETL, where HTL was N,N’-bis(3-methylphenyl)-N,N’-diphenylbenzidine (TPD), incorporated in Poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) matrix, EL - electroluminescent layer of Bis(8-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline)-(4-phenylpheno-xy)aluminum (BAlq) and ETL - electron-transporting layer of Tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) or Bis[2-(2-benzothiazoly) phenolato]zinc (Zn(btz)2). We established that the electroluminescent spectra of OLEDs at different concentrations of the dopant were basically the sum of the greenish-blue emission of BAlq and yellowish-green emission of Ir complex. It was found that with increasing of the dopant concentration the relative electroluminescent intensity of Iridium complex emission increased and this of BAlq decreased and as a result the fine tuning of OLED color was observed.

The asymmetric unit contains one diiron complex and two cocrystallized toluene solvent mol­ecules that are distributed over three sites, one with atoms in general positions and two in crystallographic sites. Both FeII atoms are η2-coordinated to diketiminate ligands, but η1- and η2-coordinated to the bridging carbonate ligand. Thus, one FeII center is three-coordinate and the other is four-coordinate. The bridging carbonate ligand is nearly perpendicular to the iron–diketiminate plane of the four-coordinate FeII center and parallel to the plane of the three-coordinate FeII center. PMID:19407402

These complexes have been characterized by the physicochemical [melting point, molecular weight determination and elemental analysis (C, H, N, S and Sb)], spectral [UV-Visible, FT-IR, far IR, NMR (1H and 13C)], thermogravimetric (TG & DTA) analysis, ESI-Mass and powder X-ray diffraction studies. Thermogravimetric analysis of the complexes confirmed the final decomposition product as highly pure antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) and powder X-ray diffraction studies show that the complexes are in lower symmetry with monoclinic crystal lattice and nano-ranged particle size (11.51-20.82 nm). The complexes have also been screened against some bacterial and fungal strains for their antibacterial and antifungal activities and compared with standard drugs. These show that the complexes have greater activities against some human pathogenic bacteria and fungi than the activities of standard drugs.

The synthesis, chemical and structural characterization of a series of pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*) tantalum imido complexes and aryloxide derivatives are presented. Specifically, the imido complexes Cp*Ta(N(t)Bu)(CH(2)R)(2), where R = Ph [dibenzyl(tert-butylamido) (η(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)tantalum(IV) (1)], Me(2)Ph [tert-butylamido)bis(2-methyl-2-phenylpropyl) (η(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)tantalum(IV) (2)], CMe(3) [(tert-butylamido)bis(2,2-dimethylpropyl) (η(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)tantalum(IV) (3)], are reported. The crystal structure of (3) reveals α-agostic interactions with the Ta atom. The resulting increase in the tantalum core coordination improves electronic stability. As such it does not react with pentafluorophenol, in contrast to the other two reported imido complexes [(1) and (2)]. Addition of C(6)F(5)OH to (1) yields a dimeric aryl-oxide derivative, [Cp*Ta(CH(2)Ph)(OC(6)H(5))(μ-O)](2) [di-μ-oxido-bis[benzyl(pentafluorophenolato) (η(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)tantalum(V)] (4)]. Its crystal structure reveals long Ta-O(C(6)H(5)) bonds but short oxo-bridging Ta-O bonds. This is explained by accounting for the fierce electronic competition for the vacant d(π) orbitals of the electrophilic Ta(V) centre. Steric congestion around each metal is alleviated by a large twist angle (77.1°) between the benzyl and pentafluorophenyl ligands and the ordering of each of these groups into stacked pairs. The imido complex (2) reacts with C(6)F(5)OH to produce a mixture of Cp*Ta(OC(6)F(5))(4) [tetrakis(pentafluorophenolato)(η(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)tantalum(V) (5)] and [Cp*Ta(OC(6)F(5))(2)(μ-O)](2) [di-μ-oxido-bis[bis(pentafluorophenolato)(η(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)tantalum(V)] (6)]. Steric congestion is offset in both cases by the twisting of its pentafluorophenyl ligands. Particularly strong electronic competition for the empty d(π) metal orbitals in (6) is reflected in its bond geometry, and owes itself to the more numerous electron-withdrawing pentafluorophenyl ligands. The balance of steric and electronic factors affecting the reactivity of Cp* tantalum imido based complexes with pentafluorophenol is therefore addressed.

In the title mol­ecular complex, [Ni(C3H5OS2)2(C5H4BrN)2], the Ni2+ cation is located on a centre of inversion and has a distorted octa­hedral N2S4 environment defined by two chelating xanthate ligands and two monodentate pyridine ligands. The C—S bond lengths of the thio­carboxyl­ate group are indicative of a delocalized bond and the O—Csp 2 bond is considerably shorter than the O—Csp 3 bond, consistent with a significant contribution of one resonance form of the xanthate anion that features a formal C=O+ unit and a negative charge on each of the S atoms. The packing of the mol­ecules is stabilized by C—H⋯S and C—H⋯π inter­actions. In addition, π–π inter­actions between the pyridine rings [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.797 (3) Å] are also present.

Both complexes consist of linear chains with double 1,5-tricyanomethanide bridges between neighbouring divalent metal ions. The Co and Mn atoms are located on centres of inversion. In (I), the coordination environment of the Co(II) atom is that of an elongated octahedron. The Co(II) atom is coordinated in the equatorial plane by four nitrile N atoms of four bridging tricyanomethanide ions, with Co-N distances of 2.106 (2) and 2.110 (2) A, and in the apical positions by two N atoms from the benzotriazole ligands, with a Co-N distance of 2.149 (2) A. The [Co[C(CN)(3)](2)(C(6)H(5)N(3))(2)] units form infinite chains extending along the a axis. These chains are crosslinked via a hydrogen bond between the uncoordinated nitrile N atom of a tricyanomethanide anion and the H atom on the uncoordinated N atom of a benzotriazole ligand from an adjacent chain, thus forming a three-dimensional network structure. In (II), the Mn(II) atom also adopts a slightly distorted octahedral geometry, with four nitrile N atoms of tricyanomethanide ligands [Mn-N = 2.226 (2) and 2.227 (2) A] in equatorial positions and two N atoms of the monodentate 3,5-dimethylpyrazole ligands [Mn-N = 2.231 (2) A] in the axial sites. In (II), one-dimensional polymeric chains extending along the b axis are formed, with tricyanomethanide anions acting as bidentate bridging ligands. A hydrogen bond between the uncoordinated nitrile N atom of the tricyanomethanide ligand and the H atom on the uncoordinated N atom of a 3,5-dimethylpyrazole group from a neighbouring chain links the molecule into a two-dimensional layered structure.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Co(NO 3 ) 2 (C 12 H 12 N 2 S) 2 ] n , contains a bis-(pyridin-3-ylmeth-yl)sulfane ( L ) ligand, an NO 3 - anion and half a Co II cation, which lies on an inversion centre. The Co II cation is six-coordinated, being bound to four pyridine N atoms from four symmetry-related L ligands. The remaining coordination sites are occupied by two O atoms from two symmetry-related nitrate anions in a monodentate manner. Thus, the Co II centre adopts a distorted octa-hedral geometry. Two symmetry-related L ligands are connected by two symmetry-related Co II cations, forming a 20-membered cyclic dimer, in which the Co II atoms are separated by 10.2922 (7) Å. The cyclic dimers are connected to each other by sharing Co II atoms, giving rise to the formation of an infinite looped chain propagating along the [101] direction. Inter-molecular C-H⋯π (H⋯ring centroid = 2.89 Å) inter-actions between one pair of corresponding L ligands and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the L ligands and the nitrate anions occur in the looped chain. In the crystal, adjacent looped chains are connected by inter-molecular π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.8859 (14) Å] and C-H⋯π hydrogen bonds (H⋯ring centroid = 2.65 Å), leading to the formation of layers parallel to (101). These layers are further connected through C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the layers, resulting in the formation of a three-dimensional supra-molecular architecture.

Four compounds of coumarin derivatives namely 6-hydroxyl-4-methylcoumarin (I), 6-hydroxyl-4-methyl-5-(p-nitrophenyl azocoumarin) (II), 6-hydroxyl-4-methyl-5,7-(bis-p-nitrophenyl azocoumarin) (III) and 6-hydroxyl-4-methyl-5,7-(bis-p-chlorophenyl azocoumarin) (IV) were successfully synthesized. These compounds were prepared by reacting hydroquinone with ethylacetoacetate and selected anilines which are chloro and nitro aniline. All synthesized compounds were characterized by CHN micro-elemental analysis, 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic methods. The infrared spectra of these compounds exhibited five important stretching vibrations: ʋ(-OH), ʋ(C=O), ʋ(C=C), ʋ(C-O) and ʋ(C-N) at 3441-3359 cm-1, 1604-1632 cm-1, 1581-1496 cm-1, 1331-1225 cm-1, 1251-1109 cm-1, respectively. 1H NMR spectra of these compounds show the presence of proton aromatic, proton methyl and proton pyrone ring with the chemical shift at δH 7.00-8.70 ppm, δH 2.20-2.50 ppm and δH 6.10-6.90 ppm, respectively. CHN analysis results of all compounds are in good agreement with the calculated values. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant activity using DPPH method and ascorbic acid used as the standard. UV-Vis spectroscopic technique was used to investigate the absorbance of these compounds. Compound (II) shows high antioxidant activities compared to compound (I), (III) and (IV) which show moderate to low activities.

Six dinuclear vanadium(V) complexes have been synthesized: NH4[(VO2)2((H)LH)] (NH4[1]), NH4[(VO2)2((t-Bu)LH)] (NH4[2]), NH4[(VO2)2((Cl)LH)] (NH4[3]), [(VO2)(VO)((H)LH)(CH3O)] (4), [(VO2)(VO)((t-Bu)LH)(C2H5O)] (5), and [(VO2)(VO)((Cl)LH)(CH3O)(CH3OH/H2O)] (6) (where (H)LH4 = 1,5-bis(2-hydroxybenzaldehyde)carbohydrazone, (t-Bu)LH4 = 1,5-bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde)carbohydrazone, and (Cl)LH4 = 1,5-bis(3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde)carbohydrazone). The structures of NH4[1] and 4-6 have been determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. In all complexes, the triply deprotonated ligand accommodates two V ions, using two different binding sites ONN and ONO separated by a diazine unit -N-N-. In two pockets of NH4[1], two identical VO2(+) entities are present, whereas, in those of 4-6, two different VO2(+) and VO(3+) are bound. The highest oxidation state of V ions was corroborated by X-ray data, indicating the presence of alkoxido ligand bound to VO(3+) in 4-6, charge density measurements on 4, magnetic susceptibility, NMR spectroscopy, spectroelectrochemistry, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. All four complexes characterized by XRD form dimeric associates in the solid state, which, however, do not remain intact in solution. Compounds NH4[1], NH4[2], and 4-6 were applied as alternative selective homogeneous catalysts for the industrially significant oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone. The peroxidative (with tert-butyl hydroperoxide, TBHP) oxidation of cyclohexane was performed under solvent-free and additive-free conditions and under low-power microwave (MW) irradiation. Cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone were the only products obtained (high selectivity), after 1.5 h of MW irradiation. Theoretical calculations suggest a key mechanistic role played by the carbohydrazone ligand, which can undergo reduction, instead of the metal itself, to form an active reduced form of the catalyst.

2014-10-08

A series of alkoxycarbonyl-substituted dihydronaphthyl-based [60]fullerene bis-adduct derivatives (denoted as C2BA, C4BA, and C6BA with the alkyl chain of ethyl, n-butyl, and n-hexyl, respectively) have been synthesized to investigate the effects of alkyl chain length and substituent pattern of fullerene bis-adducts on the film structures and photovoltaic properties of bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells. The shorter alkyl chain length caused lower solubility of the fullerene bis-adducts (C6BA > C4BA > C2BA), thereby resulting in the increased separation difficulty of respective bis-adduct isomers. The device performance based on poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and the fullerene bis-adduct regioisomer mixtures was enhanced by shortening the alkyl chain length. When using the regioisomerically separated fullerene bis-adducts, the devices based on trans-2 and a mixture of trans-4 and e of C4BA exhibited the highest power conversion efficiencies of ca. 2.4%, which are considerably higher than those of the C6BA counterparts (ca. 1.4%) and the C4BA regioisomer mixture (1.10%). The film morphologies as well as electron mobilities of the P3HT:bis-adduct blend films were found to affect the photovoltaic properties considerably. These results reveal that the alkyl chain length and substituent pattern of fullerene bis-adducts significantly influence the photovoltaic properties as well as the film structures of bulk heterojunction solar cells.

A bis(chalcone), (2E,6E)-2,6-bis((E)-3phenylallidene)cyclohexanone, was characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, gamma-ray spectroscopy and single crystal X- ray structural analysis. The optimized molecular structure of the compound is calculated using DFT/B3LYP with 6-31G (d,p) level. The calculated geometrical parameters are in good agreement with the experimental data obtained from our reported X-ray structure. The powder and single crystal compounds were gama-irradiated using clinical electron linear accelerator and 60Co gamma-ray source, respectively. Spectral studies (1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR and UV-Vis) of powder chalcone compound were also investigated before and after irradiation. Depending on the irradiation notable changes were observed in spectral features powder sample. Single crystal X-ray diffraction investigation shows that both unirradiated and irradiated single crystal samples crystallizes in a orthorhombic crystal system in the centrosymmetric space group Pbcn and exhibits an C-H..O intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The crystal packing is stabilised by strong intermolecular bifurcate C-H..O hydrogen bonds and π…π stacking interactions. The asymmetric unit of the title compound contains one-half of a molecule. The other half of the molecule is generated with (1-x,y,-3/2-z) symmetry operator. The molecule is almost planar due to having π conjugated system of chalcones. However, irradiated single crystal compound showed significant changes lattice parameters, crystal volume and density. According to results of gamma-ray spectroscopy, radioactive elements of powder compound which are 123Sb(n,g),124Sb,57Fe(g,p),56Mn, 55Mn(g,n), and 54Mn were determined using photoactivation analysis. However, the most intensive gamma-ray energy signals are 124Sb.

Absolute chemiluminescence quantum yields (phi CL) for reactions of bis-(pentachlorophenyl) oxalate (PCPO), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and 9:10 diphenyl anthracene (DPA) have been determined. A fully corrected chemiluminescence monitoring spectrometer was calibrated for spectral sensitivity using the chemiluminescence of the bis-(pentachlorophenyl) oxalate system as a liquid light source, the total photon output of which had previously been determined by chemical actinometry. At high (PCPO)/(H2O2) ratios phi CL was found to be independent of PCPO and H2O2 concentrations.

In this article four new symmetric bis-thiourea derivatives having amino acid linkers were reported with good yield. Isophthaloyl dichloride was used as spacer and L-alanine, L-aspartic acid, L-phenylalanine and L-glutamic acid were used as linkers. Bis-thiourea derivatives were prepared from relatively stable isophthaloyl isothiocyanate intermediate. Newly synthesized bis-thiourea derivatives were characterized by FTIR, H-NMR, 13C-NMR and CHNS-O elemental analysis techniques. Characterization data was in good agreement with the expected derivatives, hence confirmed the synthesis of four new derivatives of bis-thiourea having amino acids.

A novel sulfur-oxidizing bacterium, designated strain BiS0T, was isolated from a sediment sample collected from a freshwater lake in Japan. The cells were rod-shaped, 1.4-4.6 × 0.4-0.7 μm and Gram-stain-negative. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was around 44 mol%. The isolate possessed summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0 and C10 : 0 3-OH as major cellular fatty acids. Strain BiS0T grew by carbon dioxide fixation and oxidation of inorganic sulfur compounds with oxygen as the electron acceptor. Growth was observed over a temperature range of 0-32 °C (optimum, 15-22 °C), an NaCl concentration range of 0-546.4 mM (optimum 0-66.7 mM) and a pH range of 5.2-8.1 (optimum 6.1-6.3). Phylogenetic analysis, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, indicated that strain BiS0T belongs to the family Sulfuricellaceae in the class Betaproteobacteria. The closest cultured relatives were Sulfuricella denitrificans skB26T and Sulfuricella sp. T08, with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 96.3 %. On the basis of the data obtained in this study, strain BiS0T represents a novel species of a novel genus, for which the name Sulfurirhabdus autotrophica gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BiS0T ( = NBRC 110941T = DSM 100309T).

Tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and its derivatives (TTFs) have been successfully used as building blocks to form charge transfer salts and organic semiconductors because of their special structures and rich electron nature. We report the formation of ordered mixed binary-component monolayer consisting of Bis(4,5-dihydronaphtho[1,2-d])tetrathiafulvalene (DH-TTF) and n-tetradecane (n-C14H30) molecules on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. Scanning tunneling microscope (STM) imaging reveals that the two different kinds of molecules can spontaneously form ordered periodic phase separation structures on the substrate, in which ordered DH-TTF double- (or single-) lamella structures are periodically tuned by ordered n-C14H30 double- (or single-) lamella structures. Furthermore, scanning tunneling spectrum (STS) measurements by addressing the individual DH-TTF and n-C14H30 molecules in the ordered monolayer show that the two different kinds of molecules exhibit completely different I(V) characters on the HOPG substrate. The modulated arrangement of the TTF derivative by insulating molecules opens a possible route to construct organic conducting molecule ribbons for potential application in nanodevices.

The title compound, 2C5H9N2 (+)·SiF6 (2-), (I), crystallized as a new polymorph, different from the previously reported one (Ia) [Light et al. (2007 ▶) private communication (refcode: NIQFAV). CCDC, Cambridge, England]. The symmetry [space groups P21/n for (I) and C2/c for(Ia)] and crystal packing patterns are markedly different for this pair of polymorphs. In (I), all imidazolium cations in the lattice are nearly parallel to each other, whereas a herringbone arrangement can be found in (Ia). In (I), each SiF6 (2-) dianion forms four short C-H⋯F contacts with adjacent C5H9N2 (+) cations, resulting in the formation of layers parallel to the ac plane. In (Ia), the C-H⋯F contacts are generally longer and result in the formation of layers along the bc plane.

The geometrical parameters of the optimized structure are in good agreement with the X-ray crystallographic data, and the theoretical vibrational frequencies and GIAO 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts show good agreement with experimental values. Besides, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) distribution, frontier molecular orbitals (FMO) and non-linear optical properties of the title compound were investigated by theoretical calculations at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. The linear polarizabilities and first hyper polarizabilities of the molecule indicate that the compound is a good candidate of nonlinear optical materials.

We obtained two conformational polymorphs of 2,5-dichloro-3,6-bis(dibenzylamino)-p-hydroquinone, C 34 H 30 Cl 2 N 2 O 2 . Both polymorphs have an inversion centre at the centre of the hydroquinone ring (Z' = 1/2), and there are no significant differences between their bond lengths and angles. The most significant structural difference in the molecular conformations was found in the rotation of the phenyl rings of the two crystallographically independent benzyl groups. The crystal structures of the polymorphs were distinguishable with respect to the arrangement of the hydroquinone rings and the packing motif of the phenyl rings that form part of the benzyl groups. The phenyl groups of one polymorph are arranged in a face-to-edge motif between adjacent molecules, with intermolecular C-H...π interactions, whereas the phenyl rings in the other polymorph form a lamellar stacking pattern with no significant intermolecular interactions. We suggest that this partial conformational difference in the molecular structures leads to the significant structural differences observed in their molecular arrangements.

In the present study we investigated the photosensitizing properties of two novel mono- and bis-cyclodextrin tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl) porphyrin derivatives in several tumor cell lines and in BALB/c mice bearing subcutaneously transplanted syngeneic mouse mammary carcinoma 4T1. Both studied sensitizers were localized mainly in lysosomes and were found to induce cell death by triggering apoptosis in human leukemic cells HL-60. In 4T1 and other cell lines both apoptotic and necrotic modes of cell death occurred depending on drug and light doses. Mono-cyclodextrin porphyrin derivative P(beta-CD)1 exhibited stronger in vitro phototoxic effect than bis-cyclodextrin derivative P(beta-CD)2. However, in vivo P(beta-CD)2 displayed faster tumor uptake with maximal accumulation 6 h after application, leading to complete and prolonged elimination of subcutaneous tumors within 3 days after irradiation (100 J cm(-2)). In contrast, P(beta-CD)1 uptake was slower (48 h) and the reduction of tumor mass was only transient, reaching the maximum at the 12 h interval when a favorable tumor-to-skin ratio appeared. Thus, P(beta-CD)2 represents a new photosensitizing drug displaying fast and selective tumor uptake, strong antitumor activity and fast elimination from the body.

The group 10 bis(phosphine)metalla[1]ferrocenophanes, [{Fe(η(5)-C(5)H(4))(2)}M(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] [M = Ni (4a), Pd (4b), and Pt (4c)], have been prepared by the reaction of Li(2)[Fe(η(5)-C(5)H(4))(2)]·tmeda (5, tmeda = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) with trans-[MCl(2)(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] [M = Ni (trans-6a) and Pd (trans-6b)] and cis-[PtCl(2)(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] (cis-6c), respectively. Single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed highly tilted, strained structures as characterized by α angles of 28.4° (4a), 24.5° (4b), and 25.2° (4c) and a distorted square planar environment for the group 10 metal center. UV/visible spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry indicated that all three compounds had smaller HOMO-LUMO gaps and were more electron-rich in nature than ferrocene and other comparable [1]ferrocenophanes. DFT calculations suggested that these differences were principally due to the electron-releasing nature of the M(Pn-Bu(3))(2) metal-ligand fragments. Attempts to induce thermal or anionic ring-opening polymerization of 4a-c were unsuccessful and were complicated by, for example, competing ligand dissociation processes or unfavorable chain propagation. In contrast, these species all reacted rapidly with acids effecting clean extrusion of the bis(phosphine)metal fragment. Carbon monoxide inserted cleanly into one of the palladium-carbon bonds of 4b to afford the ring-expanded, acylated product [{Fe(η(5)-C(5)H(4))(η(5)-C(5)H(4))(CO)}Pd(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] (10). The nickel analogue 4a, however, afforded [Ni(CO)(2)(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] whereas the platinum-bridged complex 4c was inert. Remarkably, all compounds 4a-c were readily oxidized by elemental sulfur to afford the [5,5']bicyclopentadienylidene (pentafulvalene) complexes [{η(4):η(0)-C(5)H(4)(C(5)H(4))}M(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] [M = Ni (11a)] and [(η(2)-C(10)H(8))M(Pn-Bu(3))(2)] [M = Pd (11b) and Pt (11c)] by a formal 4-electron oxidation of the carbocyclic ligands. Compounds 11b and 11c represent the first examples of [5,5']bicyclopentadienylidene as a neutral η(2)-ligand. The relative energies of η(2)-coordination with respect to that of η(4):η(0) bonding were investigated for 11a-c by DFT calculations.

The crystal structures of all compounds except 1, 2, and 6 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and fully characterized by elemental analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. The thermal stabilities were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The DSC results show that all compounds exhibit high thermal stabilities (decomposition temperature >200 °C). Additionally, the heats of formation were calculated on the basis of the experimental constant-volume energies of combustion measured by using bomb calorimetry. Lastly, the sensitivities toward impact and friction were assessed according to Bundesamt für Materialforschung (BAM) standard methods.

In the title coordination polymer, {[Zn(SO4)(C18H16N6O2)(H2O)3]·CH3OH·H2O}n, the Zn2+ ion adopts a slightly distorted cis-ZnN2O4 octa­hedral geometry arising from three coordinated water mol­ecules, one sulfate ion and two bridging 3,3′-bis­(3-pyrid­yl)-1,1′-(m-phenyl­ene)diurea (bpmpbu) ligands. The dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and two terminal pyridine rings of the bpmbpu mol­ecule are 10.58 (17) and 34.63 (16)°. In the crystal, the ligands bridge the ZnII ions, thus generating a one-dimensional zigzag coordination polymer propagating in [010]. The crystal structure features extensive N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions. PMID:21580512

Hydrogen-Atom Transfer Oxidation with H2O2 Catalyzed by [FeII(1,2-bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-6-yl)ethane(H2O)2]2+: Likely Involvement of a (μ-Hydroxo)(μ-1,2-peroxo)diiron(III) Intermediate.

The iron(II) triflate complex ( 1 ) of 1,2-bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-6-yl)ethane, with two bipyridine moieties connected by an ethane bridge, was prepared. Addition of aqueous 30% H 2 O 2 to an acetonitrile solution of 1 yielded 2 , a green compound with λ max =710 nm. Moessbauer measurements on 2 showed a doublet with an isomer shift (δ) of 0.35 mm/s and a quadrupole splitting (Δ E Q ) of 0.86 mm/s, indicative of an antiferromagnetically coupled diferric complex. Resonance Raman spectra showed peaks at 883, 556 and 451 cm -1 that downshifted to 832, 540 and 441 cm -1 when 1 was treated with H 2 18 O 2 . All the spectroscopic data support the initial formation of a (μ-hydroxo)(μ-1,2-peroxo)diiron(III) complex that oxidizes carbon-hydrogen bonds. At 0°C 2 reacted with cyclohexene to yield allylic oxidation products but not epoxide. Weak benzylic C-H bonds of alkylarenes were also oxidized. A plot of the logarithms of the second order rate constants versus the bond dissociation energies of the cleaved C-H bond showed an excellent linear correlation. Along with the observation that oxidation of the probe substrate 2,2-dimethyl-1-phenylpropan-1-ol yielded the corresponding ketone but no benzaldehyde, and the kinetic isotope effect, k H /k D , of 2.8 found for the oxidation of xanthene, the results support the hypothesis for a metal-based H-atom abstraction mechanism. Complex 2 is a rare example of a (μ-hydroxo)(μ-1,2-peroxo)diiron(III) complex that can elicit the oxidation of carbon-hydrogen bonds.

Highly efficient single-layer organic light-emitting diodes with reduced efficiency roll-off are demonstrated by using a bipolar host material of 2,5-bis(2-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (o-CzOXD) doped with iridium complexes as the emissive layer. For example, the green single-layer device, employing fac-tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium Ir(ppy)3 as dopant, shows a peak current efficiency of 45.57 cd A-1, corresponding to external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 12.42%, and still exhibits efficiencies of 45.26 cd A-1 and 40.42 cd A-1 at luminance of 1000 and 10 000 cd m-2, respectively. In addition, the yellow and red single-layer devices, with bis(2-(9,9- diethyl-9H-fluoren-2-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzoimidazol-N ,C3)iridium(acetylacetonate) (fbi)2Ir(acac) and bis(1-phenylisoquinolinolato-C2,N)iridium(acetylacetonate) (piq)2Ir(acac) as emitter, also show high EQE of 7.04% and 7.28%, respectively. The transport properties of o-CzOXD film are well investigated by current-voltage measurement, from which both hole and electron mobility are determined. It is found that the o-CzOXD shows appealing bipolar transport character, which is favor for the balanced charge distribution in the whole doped zone. More importantly, the multifunctional role of hole trapping and electron transporting of the iridium complex in o-CzOXD further balances the charge carriers and broadens the recombination zone. As a result, the recombination of electrons and holes is significantly improved and the triplet-triplet annihilation and triplet-polaron quenching processes are effectively suppressed, eventually leading to the high efficiency as well as the reduced efficiency roll-off.

Bis is Induced by Oxidative Stress via Activation of HSF1

The Bis protein is known to be involved in a variety of cellular processes including apoptosis, migration, autophagy as well as protein quality control. Bis expression is induced in response to a number of types of stress, such as heat shock or a proteasome inhibitor via the activation of heat shock factor (HSF)1. We report herein that Bis expression is increased at the transcriptional level in HK-2 kidney tubular cells and A172 glioma cells by exposure to oxidative stress such as H2O2 treatment and oxygen-glucose deprivation, respectively. The pretreatment of HK-2 cells with N-acetyl cysteine, suppressed Bis induction. Furthermore, HSF1 silencing attenuated Bis expression that was induced by H2O2, accompaniedby increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Using a series of deletion constructs of the bis gene promoter, two putative heat shock elements located in the proximal region of the bis gene promoter were found to be essential for the constitutive expression is as well as the inducible expression of Bis. Taken together, our results indicate that oxidative stress induces Bis expression at the transcriptional levels via activation of HSF1, which might confer an expansion of antioxidant capacity against pro-oxidant milieu. However, the possible role of the other cis-element in the induction of Bis remains to be determined. PMID:25352760

The crystal structure of a solvated zirconocene penta-fulvene complex with a bulky adamantyl-idene substitution pattern, namely (η 5 ,η 1 -adamantyl-idene-penta-fulvene)bis-(η 5 -cyclo-penta-dien-yl)zirconium(IV)-toluene- n -hexane (8/1/1), [Zr(C 15 H 18 )(C 5 H 5 ) 2 ]·0.125C 7 H 8 ·0.125C 6 H 14 , is reported. Reducing zirconocene dichloride with magnesium results in the formation of a low-valent zirconocene reagent that reacts readily with adamantyl-idene-penta-fulvene to give the aforementioned complex. Single crystal X-ray diffraction proves the dianion-like η 5 :η 1 binding mode of the fulvene ligand to the central Zr IV atom. The asymmetric unit contains four independent mol-ecules of [η 5 :η 1 -adamantyl-idene-penta-fulvene]bis-[(η 5 )-cyclo-penta-dien-yl]zirconium(IV), together with half a mol-ecule of toluene disordered with half a mol-ecule of n -hexane (the solvent mol-ecules have no direct influence on the complex). In each of the four complex mol-ecules, the central Zr IV atom has a distorted tetra-hedral coordination environment. The measured crystal consisted of two domains with a refined ratio of 0.77:0.23.

Two of the compounds are channelled solids with three-dimensional structures, while the third is one-dimensional in nature. In spite of their differences, all three present a striking resemblance to the previously reported anhydrous relative [Guo et al. (2011). Chin. J. Inorg. Chem. 27, 1517-1520], which is considered as the reference framework from which all three title compounds are derived. The hydrogen-bonded frameworks are described and compared using crystallographic and topological approaches.

The molecules of these complexes have a specific combination of the intramolecular ferro- and antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between the odd electrons of Cu(II) and SQ ligands, characterized by large exchange coupling parameters |J| approximately 100-300 cm(-1). X-ray and magnetochemical studies of a series of mixed-ligand compounds revealed that an extra ligand (Py, NIT-mPy, or DABCO) coordinated to the metal atom produces a dramatic effect on the magnetic properties of the complex, changing the multiplicity of the ground state. Quantum chemical analysis of magnetostructural correlations showed that the energy of the antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between the odd electrons of the SQ ligands in the Cu(SQ)2 bischelate is extremely sensitive to both the nature of the extra ligand and structural distortions of the coordination unit, arising from extra ligand coordination.

A pioneering approach towards controlling the efficiency of saponification assisted gelation in ethyl ester based Zn II -complexes have been described. Using four new ester containing bis-salen Zn II complexes (C1-C4) involving different para-azo phenyl substituted ligands it has been clearly shown that gelation efficiency is greatly influenced by the electronic effects of the substituents (-H (C1), -CH 3 (C2), -NO 2 (C3), and -OCH 3 (C4)). Morphological, photophysical, and rheological investigations corroborated the experimental observations well and established that gelation efficiency was enhanced with electron-withdrawing characteristics of substituents (C4

And these are characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR and GC-MS. The corresponding Schiff base complexes of Mn(III) were prepared by condensation of [Mn 3(μ 3-O)(OAc) 6(H 2O) 3]·3H 2O with ligands H 2L 1, H 2L 2, H 2L 3 and H 2L 4. All these complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, X-ray crystallography, conductometry measurement, FT-IR, electronic spectra and mass (FAB) spectrometry. Thermal behaviour of the complexes has been studied by TGA, DTA and DSC. Electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate octahedral stereochemistry of manganese (III) complexes, while non-electrolytic behaviour complexes indicate the absence of counter ion.

It was characterized using FT-IR, FT-Raman, 1H NMR, 13C NMR techniques. To interpret the experimental data, ab initio computations of the vibrational frequencies were carried out using the Gaussian 09 program followed by the full optimizations done using Density Functional Theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-311 G(d,p) level. The combined use of experiments and computations allowed a firm assignment of the majority of observed bands for the compound. The calculated stretching frequencies have been found to be in good agreement with the experimental frequencies. The electronic and charge transfer properties have been explained on the basis of highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs), lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs) and density of states (DOS). The absorption spectra have been computed by using time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded and 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts of the molecule were calculated using the gauge independent atomic orbital (GIAO) method. From the optimized geometry of the molecule, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) distribution, frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) of the title compound have been calculated in the ground state theoretically. The theoretical results showed good agreement with the experimental values.

The crystal structures of the two compounds--[Zn(daptsc)]2.2DMF (1) and [Zn(H2dapipt)(OH2)2](CIO4)2.3H2O (2)--also have been determined by x-ray methods from diffractometer data. Compound (1) is dimeric and the two zinc atoms have a distorted octahedral coordination. The ligand is deprotonated. In compound (2), the coordination geometry about zinc is pentagonal--bipyramidal and the ligand is in the neutral form. The molecular structure of (2) consists of cations [Zn(H2dapipt)(OH2)]2+, CIO4- disordered anions, and three water molecules of solvation. Biological studies have shown that the ligands and the complexes Zn(daptsc).1/2EtOH and Zn(H2daptsc)Cl2 have an effect in vitro on cell proliferation and differentiation (inhibition); both are concentration dependent. [Zn(daptsc)]2.2DMF (1) shows the effects at lower concentration values with respect to other compounds.

In the mononuclear title compound, [Co(C8H7O3)2(C6H6N2O)2(H2O)2]·2H2O, the CoII ion is located on a crystallographic inversion center. The asymmetric unit is completed by one 4-meth­oxy­benzoate anion, one nicotinamide (NA) ligand and one coordinated and one uncoordinated water mol­ecule. All ligands act in a monodentate mode. The four O atoms in the equatorial plane around the CoII ion form a slightly distorted square-planar arrangement, while the slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination is completed by the two pyridine N atoms of the NA ligands in the axial positions. The dihedral angle between the carboxyl­ate group and the attached benzene ring is 6.47 (7)°, while the pyridine and benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 72.80 (4)°. An O—H⋯O hydrogen bond links the uncoordinated water mol­ecule to one of the carboxyl­ate groups. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into a three-dimensional network. PMID:21588149

The title compounds {systematic names ( E )-[diazene-1,2-diylbis(3,1-phenyl-ene)]bis-(di-methyl-silanol) and ( E )-[diazene-1,2-diylbis(4,1-phenyl-ene)]bis-(di-methyl-silanol)}, both of the sum formula C 16 H 22 N 2 O 2 Si 2 , were obtained by transmetallation of the respective bis-stannylated azo-benzenes with di-chloro-dimethyl-silane and esterification followed by hydrolysis. The asymmetric unit of 3,3'-diazenediylbis[dimeth-yl(phen-yl)silanol] (with the silanol functional group in a meta position) consists of two mol-ecules, of which one occupies a general position, whereas the second is located on a centre of inversion. In 4,4'-diazenediylbis[dimeth-yl(phen-yl)silanol] (with the silanol functional group in a para position) likewise two mol-ecules are present in the asymmetric unit, but in this case both occupy general positions. Differences between all mol-ecules can be found in the torsions about the N=N bond, as well as in the dihedral angles between the benzene rings. In both structures, inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding is observed, leading to the formation of layers parallel to (01-1) for (I) and to chains parallel to the a axis for (II).

The title compound, [FePt(C9H9NO2S)(C18H15P)(C25H22P2)(CO)3], represents a rare example of an isonitrile-bridged heterobimetallic complex (here Pt and Fe) and is an inter­esting precursor for the preparation of heterodinuclear μ-amino­carbyne complexes, since the basic imine-type N atom of the μ2-C=N–R ligand readily undergoes addition with various electrophiles to afford iminium-like salts. In the crystal, the almost symmetrically bridging μ2-C=N-R ligand (neglecting the different atomic radii of Fe and Pt) is strongly bent towards the Fe(CO)3 fragment, with a C=N-R angle of only 121.1 (4)°.

We determined the equilibrium vapor pressures, p e, of the ionic liquid tetraoctylphosphonium bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate ([P 8888][DEHP]) over the temperature range 409–495 K using mass loss Knudsen effusion. The p e versus temperature relationship compares well to 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([C 8mim][NTf 2]) but is lower than that of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([C 2mim][NTf 2]) when measured using the same technique. Here, we determined the discrepancies between the p e for [C 8mim][NTf 2] and [C 2mim][NTf 2] with previous studies is discussed. Finally, the enthalpy and entropy of vaporization for all three fluids are estimated from the Clasius-Clapeyron relation.

Ten dithiocarbamate complexes of indium(III) and gallium(III) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra and melting point. Each complex was decomposed thermally and its decomposition products separated and identified with the combination of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Their potential utility as photovoltaic materials precursors was assessed. Bis(dibenzyldithiocarbamato)- and bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)copper(II), Cu(S2CN(CH2C6H5)2)2 and Cu(S2CN(C2H5)2)2 respectively, have also been examined for their suitability as precursors for copper sulfides for the fabrication of photovoltaic materials. Each complex was decomposed thermally and the products analyzed by GC/MS, TGA and FTIR. The dibenzyl derivative complex decomposed at a lower temperature (225-320 C) to yield CuS as the product. The diethyl derivative complex decomposed at a higher temperature (260-325 C) to yield Cu2S. No Cu containing fragments were noted in the mass spectra. Unusual recombination fragments were observed in the mass spectra of the diethyl derivative. Tris(bis(phenylmethyl)carbamodithioato-S,S'), commonly referred to as tris(N,N-dibenzyldithiocarbamato)indium(III), In(S2CNBz2)3, was synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1(bar) with two molecules per unit cell. The material was further characterized using a novel analytical system employing the combined powers of thermogravimetric analysis, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to investigate its potential use as a precursor for the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of thin film materials for photovoltaic applications. Upon heating, the material thermally decomposes to release CS2 and benzyl moieties in to the gas phase, resulting in bulk In2S3. Preliminary spray CVD experiments indicate that In(S2CNBz2)3 decomposed on a Cu substrate reacts to produce stoichiometric CuInS2 films.

Describing the crystal structure, packing, FT-IR, UV-Vis and NMR spectra and thermal properties of new polydentate O-ligand based on aryl-β-diketone moieties connected by ethylene glycol spacer is the subject of this article. The results of IR, UV-Vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy as well X-ray crystallography of 1,2-bis[2-(4,4,4-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-3-oxobut-1-enyl)phenoxy]-ethane (BTFPE) indicate that the compound exists in solution and in solid as enol. The crystal structure analysis shows that BTFPE has C2/c group of the monoclinic system. Typical S(6) intramolecular hydrogen bond occurs in each 1,3-diketo moiety. This bond is asymmetric and the H atom is closest to the O atom adjacent to the phenyl ring. The packing of the crystal is sustained by numerous Csbnd H⋯O, Osbnd H⋯F, Csbnd H⋯F interactions. In the crystal, supramolecular zig-zag chains are formed along the c-axis. Short contacts interconnect the molecules into a two-dimensional layered structure wherein each molecule is node between chains. According to the thermal investigation this compound is stable up to 200 °C in air atmosphere, above this temperature it decomposes. Photoluminescent properties of aluminum(III) and europium(III) complexes of BTFPE were evaluated in chloroform solution and in the solid state. Aluminum complex of BTFPE shows blue luminescence with maximum at 445 nm. Europium complex exhibits intense red color luminescence at 613 nm from central Eu(III) ion through the excitation of the ligand.

In the neutral [Co(H–2 L1)] moiety, the cobalt ion is hexa­coordinated in a trigonal–prismatic fashion by the surrounding N4O2 donor set. A Ca2+ cation holds together two neutral [Co(H–2 L1)] moieties and is octa­coordinated in a distorted trigonal–dodeca­hedral fashion by the surrounding O atoms belonging to the deprotonated oxide and carbonyl groups of two [Co(H–2 L1)] units. The coordination of the CoII cation preorganizes L1 and an electron-rich area forms, which is able to host hard metal ions. The comparison between the present structure and the previously published ones suggests a high versatility of this ligand; indeed, hard metal ions with different nature and dimensions lead to complexes having different stoichiometry (mono- and dinuclear monomers and trinuclear dimers) or even a polymeric structure. The heterotrinuclear CoII–CaII–CoII complexes are connected in three dimensions via weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which are also responsible for the inter­actions with the perchlorate anions and the lattice water mol­ecules. The perchlorate anion is disordered about a twofold rotation axis and was refined giving the two positions a fixed occupancy factor of 0.5. The crystal studied was refined as a two-component inversion twin [BASF parameter = 0.14 (4)]. PMID:29250424

Bis(indolyl)methane appended biaryls were designed, synthesized and evaluated in human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa) for their anticancer activities and compared against normal rat cardiac myoblasts (H9C2) cells. Compounds 1-12 were synthesized, with variations in one of the phenyl unit, in a single step by condensation of biaryl-2-carbaldehydes with indole in the presence of para-toluenesulfonic acid. Compound 1 exhibited a GI50 value of 11.00 ± 0.707 μM and the derivatives, compounds 4 and 11 showed a GI50 value of 8.33 ± 0.416 μM and 9.13 ± 0.177 μM respectively in HeLa cells and was found to be non-toxic to H9C2 cells up to 20 μM. Furthermore, compounds 1, 4 and 11 induced caspase dependent cellular apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, inhibited the cell migration and downregulated the production of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in HeLa cells.

Homoleptic 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) metalates of iron and cobalt have been synthesized directly from the corresponding homoleptic anthracene metalates. In the iron structure, bis[([2.2.2]cryptand)potassium(I)] tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ferrate(-I) anthracene(-I), [K(C18H36N2O6)]2[Fe(C10H8N2)3](C14H10), the asymmetric unit contains one potassium complex cation in a general position, the Fe center and one and a half bipy ligands of the ferrate complex on a crystallographic twofold axis that includes the Fe atom, and one half of an anthracene radical anion whose other half is generated by a crystallographic inversion center. The cations and anions are well separated and the geometry about the Fe center is essentially octahedral. In the cobalt structure, ([2.2.2]cryptand)potassium(I) bis(2,2'-bipyridine)cobaltate(-I) anthracene hemisolvate tetrahydrofuran (THF) disolvate, [K(C18H36N2O6)][Co(C10H8N2)2]·0.5C14H10·2C4H8O, the asymmetric unit contains the cation, anion, and both cocrystallized THF solvent molecules in general positions, and one half of a cocrystallized anthracene molecule whose other half is generated by a crystallographic inversion center. The cation and anion are well separated and the ligand planes in the cobaltate anion are periplanar. Each anthracene molecule is midway between and is oriented perpendicular to a pair of symmetry-related bipy ligands such that aromatic donor-acceptor interactions may play a role in the packing arrangement. The lengths of the bonds that connect the bipy rings support the assertion that the ligands are bipy radical anions in the iron structure. However, in the case of cobalt, these lengths are between the known ranges for a bipy radical anion and a bipy dianion, and therefore no conclusion can be made from the crystallography alone. One cocrystallized THF solvent molecule in the cobalt structure was modeled as disordered over three positions with appropriate geometric and thermal restraints, which resulted in a refined component mass ratio of 0.412 (4):0.387 (3):0.201 (3).

Acetylation of spermidine and methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) in baby-hamster kidney cells (BHK-21/C13).

Treatment of BHK-21/C13 cells with methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG) induced the cytosolic form of spermidine N1-acetyltransferase. It stabilized the enzyme against proteolytic degradation, but the drug did not affect the enzyme activity in vitro. MGBG was itself acetylated by BHK-21/C13 cells, but at only one-tenth the rate at which spermidine was acetylated. Acetylation occurred almost exclusively in the nuclear fraction. The product was identified as N-acetyl-MGBG by h.p.l.c., by using [3H]acetyl-CoA and [14C]MGBG as co-substrates. The results suggest that the acetylation of MGBG by BHK-21/C13 cells occurs by a different acetyltransferase enzyme from that which acetylates spermidine. PMID:3421945

Two novel Schiff bases 2-((pyridin-4-yl)methelenamino)-3-aminomaleonitrile (L1) and 2,3-bis((pyridin-yl)methylenamino)maleonitrile (L2) were synthesized by the condensation of 2,3-diaminomaleonitrile and 4-pyridine carboxaldehyde using the reflux in absolute methanol. The light yellow crystalline precipitates of L1 were used for single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Two ligans L1 and L2 were characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR and 1H/13C NMR spectroscopy. Also the FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of the compounds were calculated at the B3LYP/6-31 + G(d) level of theory. The Schiff base L1 with unit cell parameters: a = 19.8380(9), b = 4.7221(2), c = 12.9703(6) Å, V = 1215.02(9) Å3, Z = 4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system with space group Pna21. The crystal structure was solved by charge flipping using single crystal X-ray diffraction data collected at 120 K. For both ligands, the experimentally obtained NMR and IR spectra were a good agreement with their calculated counterparts.

DNA synthesis in HeLa cells and isolated nuclei after treatment with an inhibitor of spermidine synthesis, methyl glyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone).

Addition of methyl glyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) to HeLa S3 suspension cultures resulted in increased putrescine levels and decreased spermidine and spermine levels preceding a drop in incorporation of [3H]thymidine, [3H]uridine and [14C]leucine into macromolecules. When putrescine, spermidine, spermine or cadaverine was added simultaneously with methyl glyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone), the drug had no detectable effect on the synthesis of macromolecules. In nuclei isolated from cells treated with methyl glyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) the reduction in the rate of DNA synthesis was equal to the reduction of [3H]thymidine incorporation in the corresponding whole cells. The capability of the nuclei to synthesize DNA could not be restored by adding spermidine or spermine to the system in vitro. The rate of DNA chain elongation was only reduced slightly by methyl glyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) indicating that decreased levels of spermidine and spermine lead to a decrease in the number of replication units active in DNA synthesis within each cell.

Three new N2O4-donor bis-Schiff base Co(II) complexes, Co(C36H34N2O8)·2CH3OH (1), Co(C28H34N2O8S2)·H2O (2) and Co(C40H36N4O8)·3CH3OH (3) with distorted octahedral six-coordinate Co(II) centers were synthesized and determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. The X-ray crystallography shows that the metal atoms of three complexes are all six-coordinate with two nitrogen atoms from Cdbnd N groups, two oxygen atoms from ether groups and two carboxylic oxygen atoms in the mono-ligand, forming a distorted octahedral geometry. Theoretical studies of the three complexes were carried out by density functional theory (DFT) Becke's three-parameter hybrid (B3LYP) method employing the 6-31G basis set. The DFT studies indicate that the calculation is in accordance with the experimental results. Moreover, inhibition of jack bean urease by Co(II) complexes 1-3 have also been investigated. At the same time, a docking analysis using a DOCK program was conducted to determine the probable binding mode by inserting the complexes into the active site of jack bean urease. The experimental values and docking simulation exhibited that the complex 3 showed strong inhibitory activity (IC50 = 16.43 ± 2.35 μM) and the structure-activity relationships were further discussed.

The stoichiometric reactions proposed in the mechanism of the rhodium-mediated decyanative borylation have been performed and all relevant intermediates isolated and characterized including their X-ray structures. Complex RhCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (1, xant(P(i)Pr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) reacts with bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2), in benzene, to give the rhodium(III) derivative RhHCl(Bpin){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (4) and PhBpin. The reaction involves the oxidative addition of B2pin2 to 1 to give RhCl(Bpin)2{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}, which eliminates ClBpin generating Rh(Bpin){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (2). The reaction of the latter with the solvent yields PhBpin and the monohydride RhH{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (6), which adds the eliminated ClBpin. Complex 4 and its catecholboryl counterpart RhHCl(Bcat){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (7) have also been obtained by oxidative addition of HBR2 to 1. Complex 2 is the promoter of the decyanative borylation. Thus, benzonitrile and 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile insert into the Rh-B bond of 2 to form Rh{C(R-C6H4)═NBpin}{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (R = H (8), p-CF3 (9)), which evolve into the aryl derivatives RhPh{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (3) and Rh(p-CF3-C6H4){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (10), as a result of the extrusion of CNBpin. The reactions of 3 and 10 with B2pin2 yield the arylBpin products and regenerate 2.

In order to improve the druglikeness properties of ZZ161C for potential oral administration, the title compounds (I) and (II) were prepared by coupling 4,4′-bis­(3-bromo­prop-1-yn-1-yl)-1,1′-biphenyl with pyrrol­idine, (I), and (S)-2-methyl­pyrrolidine, (II), respectively, in aceto­nitrile at room temperature. The asymmetric unit of (I) contains two half mol­ecules that each sit on sites of crystallographic inversion. As a result, the biphenyl ring systems in compound (I) are coplanar. The biphenyl ring system in compound (II), however, has a dihedral angle of 28.76 (11)°. In (I), the two independent mol­ecules differ in the orientation of the pyrrolidine ring (the nitro­gen lone pair points towards the biphenyl rings in one mol­ecule, but away from the rings in the other). The torsion angles about the ethynyl groups between the planes of the phenyl rings and the pyrrolidine ring N atoms are 84.15 (10) and −152.89 (10)°. In compound (II), the corresponding torsion angles are 122.0 (3) and 167.0 (3)°, with the nitro­gen lone pairs at both ends of the mol­ecule directed away from the central biphenyl rings.

The treatment of cesium-contaminated wastewater has become one of the biggest issues. The selective Cs + removal from wastewater containing competitive alkali metal ions such as Na + is desired to reduce the volume of sludge. Therefore, the present work focused on water-soluble calix[4]arene-bis-crown-6 (W-BisC6) to selectively capture Cs + . For characterization of the complex, UV-vis spectroscopy is commonly used, however, due to the limited availability of information it can be hard to quickly identify the specific structures of some complexes. In this work, the electrospray ionization time of flight spectrometry (ESI-TOF-MS) is successfully utilized to identify the number and type of cations in W-BisC6-cation complexes. ESI-TOF-MS accurately recognized 4 types of complex (W-BisC6-Na + , W-BisC6-Cs + , W-BisC6-2Na + , W-BisC6-Na + -Cs + ), and the experimental and simulated results were almost perfectly matched. It also revealed the difficulty of W-BisC6-2Cs + complex formation under the present conditions. Thus, this technique is significantly helpful for rapid identification of the specific structures of complexes during Cs + -contaminated wastewater treatment. Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Ltd.

The recent development of structural and functional analogues of the DMSO reductase family of isoenzymes allows mechanistic examination of the minimal oxygen atom transfer paradigm M(IV) + QO M(VI) O + Q with the biological metals M = Mo and W. Systematic variation of the electronic environment at the WIV center of desoxo bis(dithiolene) complexes is enabled by introduction of para-substituted phenyl groups in the equatorial (eq) dithiolene ligand and the axial (ax) phenolate ligand. The compounds [W(CO)2(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2] (54-60%) have been prepared by ligand transfer from [Ni(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2] to [W(CO)3(MeCN)3]. A series of 25 complexes [W(IV)(OC6H4-p-X')(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2]1- ([X4,X'], X = Br, F, H, Me, OMe; X' = CN, Br, H, Me, NH2; 41-53%) has been obtained by ligand substitution of five dicarbonyl complexes with five phenolate ligands. Linear free energy relationships between E1/2 and Hammett constant p for the electron-transfer series [Ni(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2]0,1-,2- and [W(CO)2(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2]0,1-,2- demonstrate a substituent influence on electron density distribution at the metal center. The reactions [WIV(OC6H4-p-X')(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2]1- + (CH2)4SO [W(VI)O(OC6H4-p-X')(S2C2(C6H4-p-X)2)2]1- + (CH2)4S with constant substrate are second order with large negative activation entropies indicative of an associative transition state. Rate constants at 298 K adhere to the Hammett equations log(k([X4,X']/k[X4,H]) = rho(ax)sigma(p) and log(k[X4,X']/k([H4,X']) = 4rho(eq)sigma(p). Electron-withdrawing groups (EWG) and electron-donating groups (EDG) have opposite effects on the rate such that k(EWG) > k(EDG). The effects of X' on reactivity are found to be approximately 5 times greater than that of X (rho(ax) = 2.1, rho(eq) = 0.44) in the Hammett equation. Using these and other findings, a stepwise oxo transfer reaction pathway is proposed in which an early transition state, of primary W(IV)-O(substrate) bond-making character, is rate-limiting. This is followed by a six-coordinate substrate complex and a second transition state proposed to involve atom and electron transfer leading to the development of the W(VI)=O group. This work is the most detailed mechanistic investigation of oxo transfer mediated by a biological metal.

Whole cells or cell-free extracts of Aerobacter aerogenes catalyze the degradation of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDT) in vitro to at least seven metabolites: 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDE); 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDD); 1-chloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDMU); 1-chloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDMS); unsym-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDNU); 2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)acetate (DDA); and 4,4′-dichlorobenzophenone (DBP). The use of metabolic inhibitors together with pH and temperature studies indicated that discrete enzymes are involved. By use of the technique of sequential analysis, the metabolic pathway was shown to be: DDT → DDD →DDMU →DDMS → DDNU → DDA → DBP, or DDT → DDE. Dechlorination was marginally enhanced by light-activated flavin mononucleotide.

Three DTPA-derivative ligands, the non-substituted DTPA-bis(amide) (L(0)), the mono-substituted DTPA-bis(n-butylamide) (L(1)) and the di-substituted DTPA-bis[bis(n-butylamide)] (L(2)) were synthesized. The stability constants of their Gd3+ complexes (GdL) have been determined by pH-potentiometry with the use of EDTA or DTPA as competing ligands. The endogenous Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions form ML, MHL and M(2)L species. For the complexes CuL(0) and CuL(1) the dissociation of the amide hydrogens (CuLH(-1)) has also been detected. The stability constants of complexes formed with Gd3+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ increase with an increase in the number of butyl substituents in the order ML(0) < ML(1) < ML(2). NMR studies of the diamagnetic YL(0) show the presence of four diastereomers formed by changing the chirality of the terminal nitrogens of their enantiomers. At 323 K, the enantiomerization process, involving the racemization of central nitrogen, falls into the fast exchange range. By the assignment and interpretation of 1H and 13C NMR spectra, the fractions of the diastereomers were found to be equal at pH = 5.8 for YL(0). The kinetic stabilities of GdL(0), GdL(1) and GdL(2) have been characterized by the rates of the exchange reactions occurring between the complexes and Eu3+, Cu2+ or Zn2+. The rates of reaction with Eu3+ are independent of the [Eu3+] and increase with increasing [H+], indicating the rate determining role of the proton assisted dissociation of complexes. The rates of reaction with Cu2+ and Zn2+ increase with rising metal ion concentration, which shows that the exchange can take place with direct attack of Cu2+ or Zn2+ on the complex, via the formation of a dinuclear intermediate. The rates of the proton, Cu2+ and Zn2+ assisted dissociation of Gd3+ complexes decrease with increasing number of the n-butyl substituents, which is presumably the result of steric hindrance hampering the formation or dissociation of the intermediates. The kinetic stabilities of GdL(0) and GdL(1) at pH = 7.4, [Cu2+] = 1 x 10(-6) M and [Zn(2+)] = 1 x 10(-5) M are similar to that of Gd(DTPA)2-, while the complex GdL2 possesses a much higher kinetic stability.

All these complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, X-ray crystallography, conductometry measurement, FT-IR, electronic spectra and mass (FAB) spectrometry. Thermal behaviour of the complexes has been studied by TGA, DTA and DSC. Electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate octahedral stereochemistry of manganese (III) complexes, while non-electrolytic behaviour complexes indicate the absence of counter ion.

D-Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO), the most abundant enzyme, is the paradigm member of the recently recognized mechanistically diverse RuBisCO superfamily. The RuBisCO reaction is initiated by abstraction of the proton from C3 of the D-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate substrate by a carbamate oxygen of carboxylated Lys 201 (spinach enzyme). Heterofunctional homologues of RuBisCO found in species of Bacilli catalyze the tautomerization ('enolization') of 2,3-diketo-5-methylthiopentane 1-phosphate (DK-MTP 1-P) in the methionine salvage pathway in which 5-methylthio-D-ribose (MTR) derived from 5'-methylthioadenosine is converted to methionine [Ashida, H., Saito, Y., Kojima, C., Kobayashi, K., Ogasawara, N., and Yokota, A. (2003) A functional link between RuBisCO-likemore » protein of Bacillus and photosynthetic RuBisCO, Science 302, 286-290]. The reaction catalyzed by this 'enolase' is accomplished by abstraction of a proton from C1 of the DK-MTP 1-P substrate to form the tautomerized product, a conjugated enol. Because the RuBisCO- and 'enolase'-catalyzed reactions differ in the regiochemistry of proton abstraction but are expected to share stabilization of an enolate anion intermediate by coordination to an active site Mg{sup 2+}, we sought to establish structure-function relationships for the 'enolase' reaction so that the structural basis for the functional diversity could be established. We determined the stereochemical course of the reaction catalyzed by the 'enolases' from Bacillus subtilis and Geobacillus kaustophilus. Using stereospecifically deuterated samples of an alternate substrate derived from D-ribose (5-OH group instead of the 5-methylthio group in MTR) as well as of the natural DK-MTP 1-P substrate, we determined that the 'enolase'-catalyzed reaction involves abstraction of the 1-proS proton. We also determined the structure of the activated 'enolase' from G. kaustophilus (carboxylated on Lys 173) liganded with Mg{sup 2+} and 2,3-diketohexane 1-phosphate, a stable alternate substrate. The stereospecificity of proton abstraction restricts the location of the general base to the N-terminal {alpha}+ {beta} domain instead of the C-terminal ({beta}/{alpha}){sub 8}-barrel domain that contains the carboxylated Lys 173. Lys 98 in the N-terminal domain, conserved in all 'enolases', is positioned to abstract the 1-proS proton. Consistent with this proposed function, the K98A mutant of the G. kaustophilus 'enolase' is unable to catalyze the 'enolase' reaction. Thus, we conclude that this functionally divergent member of the RuBisCO superfamily uses the same structural strategy as RuBisCO for stabilizing the enolate anion intermediate, i.e., coordination to an essential Mg{sup 2+}, but the proton abstraction is catalyzed by a different general base.« less

Four new cocrystals of pyrimidin-2-amine and propane-1,3-dicarboxylic (glutaric) acid were crystallized from three different solvents (acetonitrile, methanol and a 50:50 wt% mixture of methanol and chloroform) and their crystal structures determined. Two of the cocrystals, namely pyrimidin-2-amine-glutaric acid (1/1), C4H5N3·C6H8O4, (I) and (II), are polymorphs. The glutaric acid molecule in (I) has a linear conformation, whereas it is twisted in (II). The pyrimidin-2-amine-glutaric acid (2/1) cocrystal, 2C4H5N3·C6H8O4, (III), contains glutaric acid in its linear form. Cocrystal-salt bis(2-aminopyrimidinium) glutarate-glutaric acid (1/2), 2C4H6N3(+)·C6H6O4(2-)·2C6H8O4, (IV), was crystallized from the same solvent as cocrystal (II), supporting the idea of a cocrystal-salt continuum when both the neutral and ionic forms are present in appreciable concentrations in solution. The diversity of the packing motifs in (I)-(IV) is mainly caused by the conformational flexibility of glutaric acid, while the hydrogen-bond patterns show certain similarities in all four structures.

The reaction of CrCl36H2O with the ligand bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane (L) yielded the cationic complex [(Cr(L)(H2O)2Cl2]+, which crystallized as the chloride trihydrate [(Cr(L)(H2O)2Cl2]Cl·3H2O. The chromium complex was characterized by elemental analysis, electrical conductivity, Infrared and Ultraviolet/Visible spectroscopy. The crystal structure determination using single-crystal X-ray diffraction showed a chromium center in a distorted octahedral coordination sphere. In the crystal, the packing was directed by Osbnd H⋯(O,Cl) hydrogen bonds and weak Csbnd H⋯O interactions to build a monoclinic P21/c supramolecular structure. The complex showed excellent properties as an initiator for the ring opening polymerization of є-caprolactone (CL) under solvent-free conditions. The obtained polymer showed high crystallinity (89.9%) and a decomposition temperature above 475 °C. In addition, the new complex was evaluated against epimastigotes from Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) strains. The results indicated that this complex has a high activity against this parasite with a minimum inhibitory concentration 50 (MIC50) of 1.08 μg/mL. Interestingly, this compound showed little effect on erythrocytes, indicating that it is not cytotoxic. These results provide interesting contributions to the design of metal complexes by using simple and accessible ligands with activity against T. cruzi and with potential applications in the polymerization of CL.

Iron(II) dibromo- and diiodoclathrochelates undergo copper(I)-promoted reductive homocoupling in HMPA at 70-80 °C leading to C-C conjugated dibromo- and diiodo-bis-clathrochelates in high yields. Under the same conditions, their dichloroclathrochelate analog does not undergo the same homocoupling reaction, so the target dichloro-bis-cage product was obtained in high yield via dimerization of its heterodihalogenide iodochloromonomacrobicyclic precursor. The use of NMP as a solvent at 120-140 °C gave the mixture of bis-clathrochelates resulting from a tandem homocoupling-hydrodehalogenation reaction: the initial acetonitrile copper(I) solvato-complex at a high temperature underwent re-solvatation and disproportionation leading to Cu(II) ions and nano-copper, which promoted the hydrodehalogenation process even at room temperature. The most probable pathway of this reaction in situ includes hydrodehalogenation of the already formed dihalogeno-bis-clathrochelate via the formation of reduced anion radical intermediates. As a result, chemical transformations of the iron(II) dihalogenoclathrochelates in the presence of an acetonitrile copper(I) solvato-complex were found to depend both on the nature of halogen atoms in their ribbed chelate fragments and on reaction conditions (i.e. solvent and temperature). The C-C conjugated iron(II) dihalogeno-bis-clathrochelates easily undergo nucleophilic substitution with various N,S-nucleophiles giving ribbed-functionalized bis-cage species. These iron(II) complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, IR, UV-Vis, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, and by X-ray diffraction; their electrochemical properties were studied by cyclic voltammetry. The isomeric shift values in (57)Fe Mössbauer spectra of such cage compounds allowed identifying them as low-spin iron(II) complexes, while those of the quadrupole splitting are the evidence for a significant TP distortion of their FeN6-coordination polyhedra. As follows from CV data, the C-C conjugated iron(II) bis-clathrochelates undergo stepwise electrochemical reduction and oxidation giving mixed-valence Fe(II)Fe(I) and Fe(II)Fe(III) bis-cage intermediates.

To evaluate the effect of two additives, aldehyde or diketone, on the wear, roughness and hardness of bis-GMA-based composites/copolymers containing TEGDMA, propoxylated bis-GMA (CH(3)bis-GMA) or propoxylated fluorinated bis-GMA (CF(3)bis-GMA). Fifteen experimental composites and 15 corresponding copolymers were prepared combining bis-GMA and TEGDMA, CH(3)bis-GMA or CF(3)bis-GMA, with aldehyde (24 mol% and 32 mol%) or diketone (24 mol% and 32 mol%) totaling 30 groups. For composites, hybrid treated filler (barium aluminosilicate glass/pyrogenic silica; 60 wt%) was added to monomer mixtures. Photopolymerization was affected by 0.2 wt% each of camphorquinone and N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine. Wear (W) test was conducted in a toothbrushing abrasion machine (n=6) and quantified using a profilometer. Surface roughness (R) changes, before and after abrasion test, were determined using a rugosimeter. Microhardness (H) measurements were performed for dry and wet samples using a Knoop microindenter (n=6). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (alpha=0.05). Incorporation of additives led to improved W and H values for bis-GMA/TEGDMA and bis-GMA/CH(3)bis-GMA systems. Additives had no significant effect on the W and H changes of bis-GMA/CF(3)bis-GMA. With regard to R changes, additives produced decreased values for bis-GMA/CH(3)bis-GMA and bis-GMA/CF(3)bis-GMA composites. Bis-GMA/TEGDMA and bis-GMA/CH(3)bis-GMA copolymers with additives became smoother after abrasion test. The findings correlate with additives ability to improve degree of conversion of some composites/copolymers thereby enhancing mechanical properties.

Structural, electrochemical, and spectroscopic characterization reveals the monocation as intermediate ( K c = 10 8.2 ) in the three-step reversible redox system 1 0/+/2+/3+ . The 1 + ion has the molecule-bridged (Ru- - -Ru 4.727 Å) ruthenium centers involved in five- and six-membered chelate rings, and it exhibits long-wavelength absorptions at λ max 2240, 1660, and 1530 nm (ε max = 1000, 3000, and 8000 M -1 cm -1 , respectively), which would be compatible with a Ru III Ru II mixed-valent situation or with a coordinated radical ion bridge. In fact, EPR and DFT analysis of 1 + reveals that the spin is equally distributed over the ligand bridge and over both metals. The oxidized paramagnetic ions 1 2+ and 1 3+ have been studied by 1 H NMR and EPR and by TD-DFT supported UV-vis-NIR and MIR (mid-IR) spectroelectrochemistry. The capacity of various kinds of bis( mer-tridentate) bridging ligands (π donors or π acceptors, cyclometalated or noncyclometalated) for mediating metal-metal interactions is discussed.

DFT method with 6-31G(d,p) basis set has been used to calculate the optimized geometrical parameters, atomic charges, vibrational frequencies and chemical shift values. The calculated vibrational frequencies and chemical shift values are compared with experimental FT-IR and NMR spectra. The results of the calculation shows good agreement between experimental and calculated values of the compound I. The existence of N-H⋯O type intermolecular ve C-H⋯O type intramolecular hydrogen bonds can be deduced from differences between experimental and calculated results of FT-IR and NMR. In addition, the molecular electrostatic potential map and frontier molecular orbitals and electronic absorption spectra were performed at B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. HOMO-LUMO electronic transition of 4.90 eV are derived from the contribution of the bands π→π* and n→π* The spectral results obtained from FT-IR, NMR and X-ray of I revealed that the compound I is in predominantly enamine tautomeric form, which was supported by DFT calculations.

Homo- and Heterometallic Bis(Pentafluorobenzoyl)Methanide Complexes of Copper(II) and Cobalt(II)

NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)

Crowder, Janell M.

beta-Diketones are well known to form metal complexes with practically every known metal and metalloid. Metal complexes of fluorinated beta-diketones generally exhibit increased volatility and thermal stability compared to the non-fluorinated analogues, and thus are used extensively in various chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes for the deposition of metal, simple or mixed metal oxides, and fluorine-doped metal oxide thin films. Furthermore, the electron-withdrawing nature of the fluorinated ligand enhances the Lewis acidity of a coordinatively unsaturated metal center which facilitates additional coordination reactions. The physical and structural properties of fluorinated beta-diketonate complexes are discussed in Chapter 1 and a few key application examples are given. The focus of this work is the synthesis and single crystal X-ray structural characterization of unsolvated and coordinatively unsaturated metal complexes of bis(pentafluorobenzoyl)- methanide (L, C6F5COCHCOC 6F5-). In Chapter 2, we present the preparation and isolation of the unsolvated complex [Cu(L)2] in pure crystalline form for the first time. We subsequently investigated the reaction of unsolvated [Cu(L)2] with sodium hexafluoroacetylacetonate [Na(hfac)] in a solvent-free environment. This reaction allowed the isolation of the first heterometallic Na-Cu diketonate [Na2Cu2(L) 4(hfac)2] structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Thermal decomposition of [Na2Cu2(L) 4(hfac)2] was investigated for its potential application in MOCVD processes. In the final chapter, we present the first exploration of the anhydrous synthesis of Co(II) complexed with bis(pentafluorobenzoyl)methanide in order to produce a complex without ligated water. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic investigations revealed the isolation of the ethanol adduct, [Co2(L)4(C2H5OH)2], and following the removal of ethanol, a 1,4-dioxane adduct, [{Co 2(L)4}2(C4H8O2)]. In this work, we have provided the first investigation of the synthesis, isolation and single crystal X-ray structural characterization of unsolvated and coordinatively unsaturated Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes of bis(pentafluorobenzoyl)methanide ligand. These studies demonstrate how the electrophilicity of a coordinatively unsaturated metal complexed to highly-fluorinated â-diketone ligands can be utilized for the formation of new adducts or new and interesting heterometallic complexes. This body of work provides a basis upon which future research into unsolvated and unligated bis(pentafluorobenzoyl)methanide metal complexes can expand.

A comparative investigation of the coordination assemblies formed between Co(NCS)2 and two monotopic 4,2’:6’,4’’-terpyridine (4,2’:6’,4”-tpy) ligands or two related ditopic ligands is reported. Crystals were grown by layering MeOH solutions of Co(NCS)2 over a CHCl3 or 1,2-C6H4Cl2 solution of the respective ligand at room temperature. With 4’-(2-methylpyrimidin-5-yl)-4,2’:6’,4”-terpyridine (6), the 1D-coordination polymer {[Co2(NCS)4(MeOH)4(6)2]∙2MeOH∙8H2O}n assembles with 6 coordinating only through the outer N-donors of the 4,2’:6’,4”-tpy unit; coordination by the MeOH solvent blocks two cobalt coordination sites preventing propagation in a higher-dimensional network. A combination of Co(NCS)2 and 1-(4,2‘:6’,4”-terpyridin-4’-yl)ferrocene (7) leads to {[Co(NCS)2(7)2]∙4CHCl3}n which contains a (4,4) net; the 2D-sheets associate through π-stacking interactions between ferrocenyl and pyridyl units. A 3D-framework is achieved through use of the ditopic ligand 1,4-bis(npropoxy)-2,5-bis(4,2’:6’,4”-terpyridin-4’-yl)benzene (8) which acts as a 4-connecting node in {[Co(NCS)2(8)2]∙2C6H4Cl2}n; the combination of metal and ligand planar 4-connecting nodes results in a {65.8} cds net. For a comparison with the coordinating abilities of the previously reported 1,4-bis(noctoxy)-2,5-bis(4,2’:6’,4”-terpyridin-4’-yl)benzene (3), a more flexible analogue 9 was prepared. {[Co(NCS)2(9)]∙2CHCl3}n contains a (4,4) net defined by both metal and ligand planar 4-connecting nodes. The noctoxy tails of 9 protrude from each side of the (4,4) net and thread through adjacent sheets; the arene-attached noctoxy chains associate through a combination of van der Waals and C–H...π interactions.

Cobalt-Catalyzed C(sp(2))-H Borylation: Mechanistic Insights Inspire Catalyst Design.

A comprehensive study into the mechanism of bis(phosphino)pyridine (PNP) cobalt-catalyzed C-H borylation of 2,6-lutidine using B2Pin2 (Pin = pinacolate) has been conducted. The experimentally observed rate law, deuterium kinetic isotope effects, and identification of the catalyst resting state support turnover limiting C-H activation from a fully characterized cobalt(I) boryl intermediate. Monitoring the catalytic reaction as a function of time revealed that borylation of the 4-position of the pincer in the cobalt catalyst was faster than arene borylation. Cyclic voltammetry established the electron withdrawing influence of 4-BPin, which slows the rate of C-H oxidative addition and hence overall catalytic turnover. This mechanistic insight inspired the next generation of 4-substituted PNP cobalt catalysts with electron donating and sterically blocking methyl and pyrrolidinyl substituents that exhibited increased activity for the C-H borylation of unactivated arenes. The rationally designed catalysts promote effective turnover with stoichiometric quantities of arene substrate and B2Pin2. Kinetic studies on the improved catalyst, 4-(H)2BPin, established a change in turnover limiting step from C-H oxidative addition to C-B reductive elimination. The iridium congener of the optimized cobalt catalyst, 6-(H)2BPin, was prepared and crystallographically characterized and proved inactive for C-H borylation, a result of the high kinetic barrier for reductive elimination from octahedral Ir(III) complexes.

A series of sixteen novel aromatic and heterocyclic bis-sulfonamide Schiff bases were prepared by conjugation of well known aromatic and heterocyclic aminosulfonamide carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) inhibitor pharmacophores with aromatic and heterocyclic bis-aldehydes. The obtained bis-sulfonamide Schiff bases were investigated as inhibitors of four selected human (h) CA isoforms, hCA I, hCA II, hCA VII and hCA IX. Most of the newly synthesized compounds showed a good inhibitory profile against isoforms hCA II and hCA IX, also showing moderate selectivity against hCA I and VII. Several efficient lead compounds were identified among this bis-sulfonamide Schiff bases with low nanomolar to sub-nanomolar activity against hCA II (K i s ranging between 0.4 and 861.1nM) and IX (K i s between 0.5 and 933.6nM). Since hCA II and hCA IX are important drug targets (antiglaucoma and anti-tumor agents), these isoform-selective inhibitors may be considered of interest for various biomedical applications.

The reaction between 3,3'-[(3-meth-oxy-4-hy-droxy-phen-yl)methanedi-yl]bis-(4-hy-droxy-2 H -chromen-2-one) and tri-ethyl-amine in methanol yielded the title compound tri-ethyl-ammonium 3-[(4-hy-droxy-3-meth-oxy-phen-yl)(4-hy-droxy-2-oxo-2 H -chromen-3-yl)meth-yl]-2-oxo-2 H -chromen-4-olate, C 6 H 16 N + ·C 26 H 17 O 8 - or (NHEt 3 ) + (C 26 H 17 O 8 ) - , which crystallized directly from its methano-lic mother liquor. The non-deprotonated coumarol substituent shares its H atom with the deprotonated coumarolate substituent in a short negative charge-assisted hydrogen bond in which the freely refined H atom is moved from its parent O atom towards the acceptor O atom, elongating the covalent O-H bond to 1.18 (3) Å. The respective H atom can therefore be described as being shared by two alcohol O atoms, culminating in the formation of an eight-membered ring.

Ionic liquids (ILs) are considered to be suitable electrolyte components for lithium-metal batteries. Imidazolium cation based ILs were previously found to be applicable for battery systems with a lithium-metal negative electrode. However, herein it is shown that, in contrast to the well-known IL N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide ([Pyr 14 ][TFSI]), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide ([C2MIm][TFSI]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide ([C4MIm][TFSI]) are chemically unstable versus metallic lithium. A lithium-metal sheet was immersed in pure imidazolium-based IL samples and aged at 60 °C for 28 days. Afterwards, the aged IL samples were investigated to deduce possible decomposition products of the imidazolium cation. The chemical instability of the ILs in contact with lithium metal and a possible decomposition starting point are shown for the first time. Furthermore, the investigated imidazolium-based ILs can be utilized for lithium-metal batteries through the addition of the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) film-forming additive fluoroethylene carbonate. © 2017 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Here alkyl (hexyl, dodecyl, allyl) diphenylamine (DPA) moieties acts as an electron donor and pyridine-acetonitrile (PA) moiety acts as an electron acceptor. These moieties are recently showing great interest in optoelectronic applications. The structures of the DPA-PA-1-3 were confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The final products showed great solubility in common organic solvents such as toluene, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, chloroform etc due to the alkyl chains. The absorption maximum of DPA-PA-1-3 appeared at 440, 433, 447 nm in chloroform solution. The optical band gaps are 2.33, 2.29, and 2.25 eV calculated from thin film absorption edges. The photoluminescence spectra of three molecules were exhibited a maximum peak at 511, 513, 529 nm with greenish fluorescence in chloroform solution and 553, 541, 554 nm as in thin film state. DPA-PA-1-3 showed a delay fluorescence decay time (τ1) of 35, 16 and 14 μs respectively. The lower electrochemical band gaps 1.90 and 1.80 eV was observed by cyclic voltammetry. The morphological images were indicated that spherical shaped particles were observed with lower surface roughness. These types of low bandgap materials have much attention for their various potential applications in optoelectronic devices.

The metabolism of 1,3-bis(3-butoxy-2-carbamoyloxypropyl)-5-ethyl-5-phenyl- (1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidine-2,4,6-trione (difebarbamate) in man was studied. Human volunteers received a single oral dose of 25 mg/kg difebarbamate. Urine was extracted with Amberlite XAD-2 resin and the extracts were separated by preparative HPLC after enzymatic hydrolysis. Four major metabolites were isolated and their structures were determined using NMR and mass spectrometry. The oxygen dealkylation led to the formation of two metabolites: 1-(3-butoxy-2-carbamoyloxypropyl)-3-(2-carbamoyloxy-3-hydrox ypropyl)-5-ethyl-5- phenyl-(1H, 3H, 5H)-pyrimidine-2,4,6,-trione and 1,3-bis(2-carbamoyloxy-3-hydroxypropyl)-5-ethyl-5-phenyl-(1H,3H,5H )- pyrimidine-2,4,6,-trione. The hydrolysis of the carbamoyloxy group with the oxygen dealkylation led to the formation of 1-(2-carbamoyloxy-3-hydroxypropyl)-3-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-5-ethyl - 5-phenyl-(1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidine-2,4,6,-tione, whereas the 4-hydroxylation of the benzene ring together with the oxygen dealkylation led to the formation of 1,3-bis(2-carbamoyloxy-3-hydroxypropyl)-5-ethyl-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl )-(1H,3H,5H)- pyrimidine-2,4,6,-trione. No traces of the parent drug were found.

Suppression of phytohemagglutinin-induction of thymidine uptake in guinea pig lymphocytes by methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) treatment.

1977-10-18

Treatment with methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone), a specific inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.50), suppressed the phytohemagglutinin-induction of [3H]thymidine uptake by guinea pig lymphocytes. The kinetics of [3H]thymidine uptake revealed that the Km value for thymidine was not changed, but the V value was markedly lowered by the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) treatment. The induction of ATP: thymidine 5'-phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.75) (thymidine kinase) activity by phytohemagglutinin was suppressed to about the same extent as the induction of thymidine uptake. These suppressions were dependent on the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) doses and on duration of the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) treatment. Analysis of [3H]thymidine labelled compounds of the acid-soluble fraction showed that conversion of thymidine to thymidine 5'-triphosphate was inhibited by the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) treatment. DNA polymerase activity was less inhibited by the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) treatment in comparison with the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) inhibition of thymidine uptake by whole cells. These results strongly suggested that blocking of polyamine accumulation by the methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) treatment influenced phytohemagglutinin induction of thymidine phosphorylation, resulting in a decrease of thymidine incorporation into DNA.

High-spin cobalt(II) complexes are considered useful building blocks for the synthesis of single-molecule magnets (SMM) because of their intrinsic magnetic anisotropy. In this work, three new cobalt(II) chloride adducts with labile ligands have been synthesized from anhydrous CoCl 2 , to be subsequently employed as starting materials for heterobimetallic compounds. The products were characterized by elemental, spectroscopic (EPR and FT-IR) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. trans-Tetrakis(acetonitrile-κN)bis(tetrahydrofuran-κO)cobalt(II) bis[(acetonitrile-κN)trichloridocobaltate(II)], [Co(C 2 H 3 N) 4 (C 4 H 8 O) 2 ][CoCl 3 (C 2 H 3 N)] 2 , (1), comprises mononuclear ions and contains both acetonitrile and tetrahydrofuran (thf) ligands, The coordination polymer catena-poly[[tetrakis(propan-2-ol-κO)cobalt(II)]-μ-chlorido-[dichloridocobalt(II)]-μ-chlorido], [Co 2 Cl 4 (C 3 H 8 O) 4 ], (2'), was prepared by direct reaction between anhydrous CoCl 2 and propan-2-ol in an attempt to rationalize the formation of the CoCl 2 -alcohol adduct (2), probably CoCl 2 (HO i Pr) m . The binuclear complex di-μ-chlorido-1:2κ 4 Cl:Cl-dichlorido-2κ 2 Cl-tetrakis(tetrahydrofuran-1κO)dicobalt(II), [Co 2 Cl 4 (C 4 H 8 O) 4 ], (3), was obtained from (2) after recrystallization from tetrahydrofuran. All three products present cobalt(II) centres in both octahedral and tetrahedral environments, the former usually less distorted than the latter, regardless of the nature of the neutral ligand. Product (2') is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen-bond network that appears to favour a trans arrangement of the chloride ligands in the octahedral moiety; this differs from the cis disposition found in (3). The expected easy displacement of the bound solvent molecules from the metal coordination sphere makes the three compounds good candidates for suitable starting materials in a number of synthetic applications.

In one independent M mol-ecule, one of the two tert-butyl groups is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a 3:2 ratio. The n-hexane solvent mol-ecule is disordered between two conformations in the same ratio. The water mol-ecule bridges two independent M mol-ecules via O-H⋯O, N-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a 2M·H2O unit, and these units are further linked by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into chains running in the [010] direction. Weak C-H⋯O inter-actions are observed between the adjacent chains.

Experiments were designed to study chlorine dioxide (CD) gas sterilization under square-wave conditions. By using controlled humidity, gas concentration, and temperature at atmospheric pressure, standard biological indicators (BIs) and spore disks of environmental isolates were exposed to CD gas. The sporicidal activity of CD gas was found to be concentration dependent. Prehumidification enhanced the CD activity. The D values (time required for 90% inactivation) of Bacillus subtilis subsp. niger ATCC 9372 BIs were estimated to be 1.5, 2.5, and 4.2 min when exposed to CD concentrations of 30, 15, and 7 mg/liter, respectively, at 23°C and ambient (20 to 40%) relative humidity (RH). Survivor tailings were observed. Prehumidification of BIs to 70 to 75% RH in an environmental chamber for 30 min resulted in a D value of 1.6 min after exposure to a concentration of 6 to 7 mg of CD per liter at 23°C and eliminated survivor tailing. Prolonging prehumidification at 70 to 75% RH for up to 16 h did not further improve the inactivation rate. Prehumidification by ultrasonic nebulization was found to be more effective than prehumidification in the environmental chamber, improving the D value to 0.55 min at a CD concentration of 6 to 7 mg/liter. Based on the current observations, CD gas is estimated, on a molar concentration basis, to be 1,075 times more potent than ethylene oxide as a sterilant at 30°C. A comparative study showed B. subtilis var. niger BIs were more resistant than other types of BIs and most of the tested bacterial spores of environmental isolates. PMID:16348127

Two new gallium phosphate/phosphite-oxalates hybrid solids, {[H2dmpip][Ga2(HPO4)2(PO4)(C2O4)0.5]·H2O} (1) and [H2apm][Ga2(H2PO3)2(HPO3)2(C2O4)] (2), where dmpip = 2,6-dimethyl-piperazine and apm = N-(3-aminopropyl)morpholine, have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Both of compounds 1 and 2 are formed by the connectivity of the Ga-based polyhedral, phosphite/phosphate groups as well as oxalate units. Compound 1 possesses a two-dimensional layer structure, in which the C2O4 units via an in-plane linkage connect two Ga center within the sheet. While in 2, the C2O4 units serve as bis-bidentates ligands bridging two GaO6 octahedra from two distinct gallium-phosphite chains to give rise to inorganic-organic hybrid layer with 8-membered rings. In these materials, the structure-directing amines reside in the interlayer region and interact with the layers by way of hydrogen-bonds.

We report the first generation and characterization of the elusive Breslow intermediates derived from aromatic N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), namely benzimidazolin-2-ylidenes (NMR, X-ray) and thiazolin-2-ylidenes (NMR). In the former case, the diaminoenols were generated by reaction of the free N,N-bis-Dipp- and N,N-bis-Mes-benzimidazolin-2-ylidenes with aldehydes, while the dimer of 3,4,5-trimethylthiazolin-2-ylidene served as the starting material in the latter case. The unambiguous NMR-identification of the first thiazolin-2-ylidene based Breslow intermediate rests on double 13C labeling of both the NHC and the aldehyde component. Acyl anion reactivity was proven by benzoin formation with excess aldehyde. © 2018 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

We investigate the superconducting-gap anisotropy in one of the recently discovered BiS_{2}-based superconductors, NdO_{0.71}F_{0.29}BiS_{2} (T_{c}∼5  K), using laser-based angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Whereas the previously discovered high-T_{c} superconductors such as copper oxides and iron-based superconductors, which are believed to have unconventional superconducting mechanisms, have 3d electrons in their conduction bands, the conduction band of BiS_{2}-based superconductors mainly consists of Bi 6p electrons, and, hence, the conventional superconducting mechanism might be expected. Contrary to this expectation, we observe a strongly anisotropic superconducting gap. This result strongly suggests that the pairing mechanism for NdO_{0.71}F_{0.29}BiS_{2} is an unconventional one and we attribute the observed anisotropy to competitive or cooperative multiple paring interactions.

The development of new value-added applications for glycerol is of worldwide interest because of the environmental and economic problems that may be caused by an excess of glycerol generated from biodiesel production. A novel use of glycerol as a major substrate for production of a low-cost sterilization biological indicator system (BIS; spores on a carrier plus a recovery medium) was investigated. A sequential experimental design strategy was applied for product development and optimization. The proposed recovery medium enables germination and outgrowth of heat-damaged spores, promoting a D (160 °C) value of 6.6 ± 0.1 min. Bacillus atrophaeus spores production by solid-state fermentation reached a 2.3 ± 1.2 × 10(8) CFU/g dry matter. Sporulation kinetics results allowed this process to be restricted in 48 h. Germination kinetics demonstrated the visual identification of nonsterile BIS within 24 h. Performance evaluation of the proposed BIS against dry-heat and ethylene oxide sterilization showed compliance with the regulatory requirements. Cost breakdowns were from 41.8 (quality control) up to 72.8 % (feedstock). This is the first report on sterilization BIS production that uses glycerol as a sole carbon source, with significant cost reduction and the profitable use of a biodiesel byproduct.

Polymer 1 possesses a one-dimensional (1D) helical chainlike structure with 4(1) helices running along the c-axis with a pitch of 10.090 Angstroms. Polymer 2 has an infinite chiral two-dimensional (2D) brick-wall-like layer structure in the ac plane built from achiral components, while both 3 and 4 exhibit an infinite 2D herringbone architecture, respectively extended in the ac and ab plane. Polymer 5 features a most remarkable and unique three-dimensional (3D) porous framework with 2-fold interpenetration related by symmetry, which contains channels in the b and c directions, both distributed in a rectangular grid fashion. Compounds 1-5, with systematic variation in dimensionality from 1D to 2D to 3D, are the first examples of d(10) metal coordination polymers into which pyridinedicarboxylic acid N-oxide has been introduced. In addition, polymers 1, 4, and 5 display strong blue fluorescent emissions in the solid state. Polymer 3 exhibits a strong SHG response, estimated to be approximately 0.9 times that of urea.

Reactions of benzil bis(thiosemicarbazone), LH(6), with M(NO(3))(2).nH(2)O (M = Zn, Cd, and Ni), in the presence of LiOH.H(2)O, show the versatile behavior of this molecule. The structure of the ligand, with the thiosemicarbazone moieties on opposite sides of the carbon backbone, changes to form complexes by acting as a chelating molecule. Complexes of these metal ions with empirical formula [MLH(4)] were obtained, although they show different molecular structures depending on their coordinating preferences. The zinc complex is the first example of a crystalline coordination polymer in which a bis(thiosemicarbazone) acts as bridging ligand, through a nitrogen atom, giving a 1D polymeric structure. The coordination sphere is formed by the imine nitrogen and sulfur atoms, and the remaining position, in a square-based pyramid, is occupied by an amine group of another ligand. The cadmium derivative shows the same geometry around the metal ion but consists of a dinuclear structure with sulfur atoms acting as a bridge between the metal ions. However, in the nickel complex LH(6) acts as a N(2)S(2) ligand yielding a planar structure for the nickel atom. The ligand and its complexes have been characterized by X-ray crystallography, microanalysis, mass spectrometry, IR, (1)H, and (13)C NMR spectroscopies and for the cadmium complex by (113)Cd NMR in solution and in the solid state.

The effect of a pH change from 2 to 6 was tested on the solubility of ferrous sulfate, ferrous fumarate, iron bis-glycine chelate (Ferrochel) and sodium-iron ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (NaFeEDTA). It was found that at pH 2 ferrous sulfate, Ferrochel and NaFeEDTA were completely soluble and only 75% of iron from ferrous fumarate was soluble. When pH was raised to 6, iron from amino acid chelate and NaFeEDTA remained completely soluble while solubility from ferrous sulfate and ferrous fumarate decreased 64 and 74%, respectively compared to the amount of iron initially soluble at pH 2. These results suggest that iron solubility from iron bis-glycine chelate and NaFeEDTA is not affected by pH changes within the ranges tested, probably because iron remained associated to the respective compounds.

Carbon-Hydrogen Activation in Zerovalent Bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene) Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals: A Theoretical Study.

Stepwise interaction of first row transition metal atoms with 1,5-cyclooctadiene to give (C 8 H 12 ) 2 M complexes is studied using the M06-L/DZP density functional method. The experimentally known (C 8 H 12 ) 2 Ni is the thermodynamically most favorable complex, with a predicted geometry consistent with its experimental structure as determined by X-ray crystallography. The other transition metal atoms from scandium to zinc also interact exothermically with 1,5-cyclooctadiene to give (C 8 H 12 ) 2 M derivatives, but these exhibit lower symmetry than the S 4 symmetry exhibited by (C 8 H 12 ) 2 Ni. Carbon-hydrogen activation of CH 2 groups in a C 8 H 12 ligand is predicted for most systems. Thus, conversion of (η 2,2 -C 8 H 12 ) 2 M to (η 3,2 -C 8 H 11 )(η 2,1 -C 8 H 13 )M, through a hydride intermediate (η 3,2 -C 8 H 11 )(η 2,2 -C 8 H 12 )MH, is predicted for scandium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, and cobalt. For titanium with a low-lying empty orbital, further C-H activation through a hydride intermediate (η 6 -C 8 H 10 )(η 2,1 -C 8 H 13 )TiH is predicted, leading ultimately to (η 6 -C 8 H 10 )(η 1,1 -C 8 H 14 )Ti, in which the hexahapto η 6 -C 8 H 10 ligand is shown by NICS to be aromatic. These two C-H activation processes on a titanium center represent the dehydrogenation of 1,5-cyclooctadiene to 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene with the second 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand as the hydrogen acceptor. For zinc C-H activation terminates at (η 1 -C 8 H 11 )(C 8 H 12 )ZnH, which has a C-Zn-H three-center bond. No energetically favorable C-H activation processes are predicted for the iron, nickel, and copper (η 2,2 -C 8 H 12 ) 2 M derivatives.

Three polymorphic modifications of bis(N-phenylbiguanidium(1+)) oxalate are reported, and their characterization is discussed in this paper. The non-centrosymmetric bis(N-phenylbiguanidium(1+)) oxalate (I), which was obtained from an aqueous solution at 313 K, belongs to the monoclinic space group Cc (a = 6.2560(2) Å, b = 18.6920(3) Å, c = 18.2980(5) Å, β = 96.249(1)°, V = 2127.0(1) Å3, Z = 4, R = 0.0314 for 4738 observed reflections). The centrosymmetric bis(N-phenylbiguanidium(1+)) oxalate (II) was obtained from an aqueous solution at 298 K and belongs to the monoclinic space group P21/n (a = 6.1335(3) Å, b = 11.7862(6) Å, c = 14.5962(8) Å, β = 95.728(2)°, V = 1049.90(9) Å3, Z = 4, R = 0.0420 for 2396 observed reflections). The cooling of the centrosymmetric phase (II) leads to the formation of bis(N-phenylbiguanidium(1+)) oxalate (III) (a = 6.1083(2) Å, b = 11.3178(5) Å, c = 14.9947(5) Å, β = 93.151(2)°, V = 1035.05(8) Å3, Z = 4, R = 0.0345 for 2367 observed reflections and a temperature of 110 K), which also belongs to the monoclinic space group P21/n. The crystal structures of the three characterized phases are generally based on layers of isolated N-phenylbiguanidium(1 +) cations separated by oxalate anions and interconnected with them by several types of N-H...O hydrogen bonds. The observed phases generally differ not only in their crystal packing but also in the lengths and characteristics of their hydrogen bonds. The thermal behaviour of the prepared compounds was studied using the DSC method in the temperature range from 90 K up to a temperature near the melting point of each crystal. The bis(N-phenylbiguanidium(1+)) oxalate (II) crystals exhibit weak reversible thermal effects on the DSC curve at 147 K (heating run). Further investigation of this effect, which was assigned to the isostructural phase transformation, was performed using FTIR, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis in a wide temperature range.

The effectiveness of 1H decoupling in the 13C MAS NMR of paramagnetic solids: An experimental case study incorporating copper(II) amino acid complexes

The use of continuous-wave (CW) 1H decoupling has generally provided little improvement in the 13C MAS NMR spectroscopy of paramagnetic organic solids. Recent solid-state 13C NMR studies have demonstrated that at rapid magic-angle spinning rates CW decoupling can result in reductions in signal-to-noise and that 1H decoupling should be omitted when acquiring 13C MAS NMR spectra of paramagnetic solids. However, studies of the effectiveness of modern 1H decoupling sequences are lacking, and the performance of such sequences over a variety of experimental conditions must be investigated before 1H decoupling is discounted altogether. We have studied the performance of several commonly used advanced decoupling pulse sequences, namely the TPPM, SPINAL-64, XiX, and eDROOPY sequences, in 13C MAS NMR experiments performed under four combinations of the magnetic field strength (7.05 or 11.75 T), rotor frequency (15 or 30 kHz), and 1H rf-field strength (71, 100, or 140 kHz). The effectiveness of these sequences has been evaluated by comparing the 13C signal intensity, linewidth at half-height, LWHH, and coherence lifetimes, T2', of the methine carbon of copper(II) bis( DL-alanine) monohydrate, Cu(ala) 2·H 2O, and methylene carbon of copper(II) bis( DL-2-aminobutyrate), Cu(ambut) 2, obtained with the advanced sequences to those obtained without 1H decoupling, with CW decoupling, and for fully deuterium labelled samples. The latter have been used as model compounds with perfect 1H decoupling and provide a measure of the efficiency of the 1H decoupling sequence. Overall, the effectiveness of 1H decoupling depends strongly on the decoupling sequence utilized, the experimental conditions and the sample studied. Of the decoupling sequences studied, the XiX sequence consistently yielded the best results, although any of the advanced decoupling sequences strongly outperformed the CW sequence and provided improvements over no 1H decoupling. Experiments performed at 7.05 T demonstrate that the XiX decoupling sequence is the least sensitive to changes in the 1H transmitter frequency and may explain the superior performance of this decoupling sequence. Overall, the most important factor in the effectiveness of 1H decoupling was the carbon type studied, with the methylene carbon of Cu(ambut) 2 being substantially more sensitive to 1H decoupling than the methine carbon of Cu(ala) 2·H 2O. An analysis of the various broadening mechanisms contributing to 13C linewidths has been performed in order to rationalize the different sensitivities of the two carbon sites under the four experimental conditions.

Their corresponding [C13H15CuN4O5] (CuL1) and [C14H16CuN4O4] (CuL2) copper (II) complexes are also elaborated and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR an UV-visible spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the CuL1 complex confirms that copper atom is 4-coordinated, in a distorted square planar geometry within the molecule, and achieves its coordination through weak intermolecular interactions leading to two dimensional slabs. This geometry is in agreement with UV-visible results which also evidence that structure of complexes are affected in DMSO in contrast to methanol. No antibacterial activity against all the tested bacterial strains has been found for the Cu (II) complexes. By contrast, CuL1 is characterized with good catalytic properties in the air-oxidation of catechol substrate to quinone.

In a wide research programme towards the study of piperidin-4-ones with efficient pharmacological effect, a new series of N-acyl r-2,c-6-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-c-3,t-3-dimethylpiperidin-4-ones 2-5 are synthesized and characterized by IR spectra, 1H, 13C, DEPT - 135 and 2D (COSY and HSQC) NMR and mass spectra. The parent compound 1 prefers to exist in a chair conformation whereas the extracted coupling constant, chemical shifts and estimated dihedral angles show that the N-acyl piperdine-4-ones 2-5 prefer to exist in a distorted boat conformation B1 (with C2 and C5 in prow and stern positions) with coplanar orientation of Nsbnd Cdbnd O moiety. The existence of a fast Nsbnd CO rotational equilibrium between the boat conformations B (I) and B (II) has also been observed. Anti bacterial activity of the above test compounds 1-5 is determined against pseudomonas sp. and salmonella sp. The antioxidant activities are determined by the ABTS, DPPH and superoxide assays. Furthermore, molecular docking studies have been carried out for the compounds 1-5 with target protein CHK1.

2-ethylhexyl-2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB) and bis(2-ethylhexyl)tetrabromophthalate (BEH-TEBP) are novel brominated flame retardants used in consumer products. A parallelogram approach was used to predict human dermal absorption and flux for EH-TBB and BEH-TEBP. [14C]-EH-TBB or [14C]-BEH-TEBP was applied to human or rat skin at 100 nmol/cm2 using a flow-through system. Intact rats received analogous dermal doses. Treated skin was washed and tape-stripped to remove “unabsorbed” [14C]-radioactivity after continuous exposure (24h). “Absorbed” was quantified using dermally retained [14C]-radioactivity; “penetrated” was calculated based on [14C]-radioactivity in media (in vitro) or excreta+tissues (in vivo). Human skin absorbed EH-TBB (24±1%) while 0.2±0.1% penetrated skin. Rat skin absorbed more (51±10%) and was more permeable (2±0.5%) to EH-TBB in vitro; maximal EH-TBB flux was 11±7 and 102±24 pmol-eq/cm2/h for human and rat skin, respectively. In vivo, 27±5% was absorbed and 13% reached systemic circulation after 24 h (maximum flux was 464±65 pmol-eq/cm2/h). BEH-TEBP in vitro penetrance was minimal (<0.01%) for rat or human skin. BEH-TEBP absorption was 12±11% for human skin and 41±3% for rat skin. In vivo, total absorption was 27±9%; 1.2% reached systemic circulation. In vitro maximal BEH-TEBP flux was 0.3±0.2 and 1±0.3 pmol-eq/cm2/h for human and rat skin; in vivo maximum flux for rat skin was 16±7 pmol-eq/cm2/h. EH-TBB was metabolized in rat and human skin to tetrabromobenzoic acid. BEH-TEBP-derived [14C]-radioactivity in the perfusion media could not be characterized. Less than 1% of the dose of EH-TBB and BEH-TEHP is estimated to reach the systemic circulation following human dermal exposure under the conditions tested. PMID:27732871

The reactions of the bulky amino-bis(phenol) ligand Me(2)NCH(2)CH(2)N[CH(2)-3,5-Bu(t)(2)-C(6)H(2)OH-2](2)(1-H(2)) with Zn[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2)(4), [Mg[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2)](2)(5) and Ca[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2)(THF)(2)(6) yield the complexes 1-Zn, 1-Mg and 1-Ca in good yields. The X-ray structure of 1-Ca showed the complex to be dimeric, with calcium in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Five of the positions are occupied by an N(2)O(3) donor set, while the sixth is taken up by an intramolecular close contact to an o-Bu(t) substituent, a rare case of a Ca...H-C agostic interaction (Ca...H distances of 2.37 and 2.41 Angstroms). Another sterically hindered calcium complex, Ca[2-Bu(t)-6-(C(6)F(5)N=CH)C(6)H(3)O](2)(THF)(2).(C(7)H(8))(2/3)(7), was prepared by reaction of 6 with the iminophenol 2-Bu(t)-6-(C(6)F(5)N=CH)C(6)H(3)OH (3-H).

In the title structure, C21H20O5·C2H5OH, the curcumine-type mol­ecule has a double E conformation for the two benzyl­idene double bonds [C=C = 1.342 (4) and 1.349 (4) Å] and is nearly planar with respect to the non-H atoms (r.m.s. deviation from planarity = 0.069 Å). The two phenolic OH groups form bifurcated hydrogen bonds with intra­molecular branches to adjacent meth­oxy O atoms and inter­molecular branches to either a neighbouring mol­ecule or an ethanol solvent mol­ecule. The ethanol O atom donates a hydrogen bond to the keto O atom. These hydrogen bonds link the constituents into layers parallel to (101) in the crystal structure. PMID:23634071

New phenolic mono and bis Mannich bases incorporating benzimidazole, such as 2-(aminomethyl)-4-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenol and 2,6-bis(aminomethyl)-4-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenol were synthesized starting from 4-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenol. Amines used for the synthesis included dimethylamine, pyrrolidine, piperidine, N-methylpiperazine and morpholine. The CA inhibitory properties of these compounds were tested on the human carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms hCA I and hCA II. These new compounds, as many phenols show moderate CA inhibitory properties.

The application of 58-π-1,4-bis(silylmethyl)[60]fullerenes, C60 (CH2 SiMe2 Ph)(CH2 SiMe2 Ar) (Ar=Ph and 2-methoxylphenyl for SIMEF-1 and SIMEF-2, respectively), in small-molecule organic solar cells with a diketopyrrolopyrrole donor (3,6-bis[5-(benzofuran-2-yl)thiophen-2-yl]-2,5-bis(2-ethylhexyl)pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione (DPP(TBFu)2 )) is demonstrated. With the 58-π-silylmethyl fullerene acceptor, SIMEF-1, the devices showed the highest efficiency of 4.57 % with an average of 4.10 %. They manifested an improved open-circuit voltage (1.03 V) owing to the high-lying LUMO level of SIMEF-1, while maintaining a high short-circuit density (9.91 mA cm(-2) ) through controlling the crystallinity of DPP by thermal treatment. On the other hand, despite even higher open-circuit voltage (1.05 V), SIMEF-2-based devices showed lower performances of 3.53 %, owing to a low short-circuit current density (8.33 mA cm(-2) ) and fill factor (0.40) arising from the asymmetric structure, which results in a lower mobility and immiscibility. © 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Luminescent, mono-diimine, ruthenium complexes, [(H)Ru(CO)(PPh3)2(dcbpy)][PF6] (1, dcbpy = 4,4′-dicarboxy bipyridyl) and [(H)Ru(CO)(dppene)(5-amino-1,10-phen)][PF6] (2, dppene = bis diphenylphosphino-ethylene, phen = 9,10-phenanthroline), have been conjugated with 1,2-dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DPPE) and with cholesterol in the case of 2. Compound 1 gives the bis-lipid derivative [(H)Ru(CO)(PPh3)2(dcbpy-N-DPPE2)][PF6] (3), while 2 provides the mono-lipid conjugate [(H)Ru(CO)(dppene)(1,10-phen-5-NHC(S)-N-DPPE)][ PF6] (4), and the cholesterol derivative [(H)Ru(CO)(dppene)(1,10-phen-5-NHC(O)OChol)][PF6] (5, Chol = cholesteryl), using standard conjugation techniques. These compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods, and their photophysical properties were measured in organic solvents. The luminescence of lipid conjugates 3 and is quenched in organic solvents while compound 4 a weak, short-lived, blue-shifted emission in solution. The cholesterol conjugate shows the long-lived, microsecond-timescale emission associated with triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (3MLCT) excited states. Incorporation of conjugate 3 in lipid bilayer vesicles restores the luminescence, but with blue shifts (~80 nm) accompanied by nanosecond-timescale lifetimes. In the vesicles conjugate 4 shows a similar short-lived and blue-shifted emission to that observed in solution but with increased intensity. Conjugation of the complex [(H)Ru(CO)(PhP2C2H4C(O)O-N-succinimidyl)2(bpy)][PF6] (6”) with DPPE gives the phosphine-conjugated complex [(H)Ru(CO)(PhP2C2H4C(O)-N-DPPE)2(bpy)][PF6] (7). Complex 7 also exhibits a short-lived and blue-shifted emission in solution and in vesicles as observed for 3 and 4. We have also conjugated the complex [Ru(bpy)2(5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline)][PF6]2 (8) with both cholesterol (9) and DPPE (10). Neither 9 nor the previously reported 10 exhibited the blue shifts observed for 3 and 4 when incorporated into LUVs. The anisotropies of the emissions of 3, 4 and 7 were also measured in LUVs and of 5 in both glycerol and LUVs. High fundamental anisotropies were observed for 3 and 4 and 7. PMID:24063694

These compounds were characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR as well as IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and ESIMS spectrometry. Additionally, molecular and crystal structures of {[Ag(4-pmOpe)]NO₃}n and [Cu₄Cl₆O(2-bimOpe)₄] were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The antimicrobial profiles of synthesized complexes and free ligands against test organisms from the ATCC and clinical sources were determined. Silver(I) complexes showed good antimicrobial activities against Candida albicans strains (MIC values of ∼19 μM). [Ag(2-bimOpe)₂]NO₃ was particularly active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis, with MIC values of ∼5 and ∼10 μM, respectively. Neither copper(II) complexes nor the free ligands inhibited the growth of test organisms at concentrations below 500 μg mL⁻¹. Copyright © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Alkaline conformers of cytochrome c may be involved in both its electron transport and apoptotic functions. We use cobalt(II)bis(terpyridine), Co(terpy)2(2+), as a reagent for conformationally gated electron-transfer (gated ET) experiments to study the alkaline conformational transition of K79H variants of yeast iso-1-cytochrome c expressed in Escherichia coli , WT*K79H, with alanine at position 72 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae , yK79H, with trimethyllysine (Tml) at position 72. Co(terpy)2(2+) is well-suited to the 100 ms to 1 s time scale of the His79-mediated alkaline conformational transition of these variants. Reduction of the His79-heme alkaline conformer by Co(terpy)2(2+) occurs primarily by gated ET, which involves conversion to the native state followed by reduction, with a small fraction of the His79-heme alkaline conformer directly reduced by Co(terpy)2(2+). The gated ET experiments show that the mechanism of formation of the His79-heme alkaline conformer involves only two ionizable groups. In previous work, we showed that the mechanism of the His73-mediated alkaline conformational transition requires three ionizable groups. Thus, the mechanism of heme crevice opening depends upon the position of the ligand mediating the process. The microscopic rate constants provided by gated ET studies show that mutation of Tml72 (yK79H variant) in the heme crevice loop to Ala72 (WT*K79H variant) affects the dynamics of heme crevice opening through a small destabilization of both the native conformer and the transition state relative to the His79-heme alkaline conformer. Previous pH jump data had indicated that the Tml72→Ala mutation primarily stabilized the transition state for the His79-mediated alkaline conformational transition.

Framework 1 possesses intersected 2D channels decorated by free COOH groups and uncoordinated triazolyl N atoms, leading to not only high CO 2 and C 2 H 6 adsorption capacity but also significant selective capture for CO 2 and C 2 H 6 over CH 4 and CO in 273-333 K. Moreover, 1 reveals chemical stability toward water. Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations confirmed the multiple CO 2 - and C 2 H 6 -philic sites. As a result of the presence of accessible Brønsted acidic COOH groups in the channels, the activated framework demonstrates highly efficient catalytic activity in the cycloaddition reaction of CO 2 with propylene oxide/4-chloromethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one/3-butoxy-1,2-epoxypropane into cyclic carbonates. © 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

They were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffractions (PXRD) and thermal analyses (TG/DTA). Complexes 1-3 exhibited structural diversities depending on flexible, semi-flexible and semi-flexible substituted bis(imidazole) ligands. Complex 1 was 2D structure with 3,6L18 topology. Complex 2 had a 3D pillar-layered framework with the rare sqc27 topology. When semi-flexible substituted bis(imidazole) linker was used, 3D framework of complex 3 was obtained with the paddlewheel Cd2(CO2)4-type binuclear SBU. Moreover, thermal and photoluminescence properties of the complexes were determined in detailed.

The crystals of two new salts, 2,6-di­amino-4-chloro­pyrimidin-1-ium 5-chloro­salicylate, C4H6ClN4 +·C7H4ClO3 −, (I), and bis­(2,6-di­amino-4-chloro­pyrimidin-1-ium) naphthalene-1,5-di-sulfonate, 2C4H6ClN4 +·C10H6O6S2 2−, (II), have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In both compounds, the N atom of the pyrimidine group in between the amino substituents is protonated and the pyrimidinium cation forms a pair of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with the carboxyl­ate/sulfonate ion, leading to a robust R 2 2(8) motif (supra­molecular heterosynthon). In compound (I), a self-complementary base pairing involving the other pyrimidinium ring nitro­gen atom and one of the amino groups via a pair of N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds [R 2 2(8) homosynthon] is also present. In compound (II), the crystallographic inversion centre coincides with the inversion centre of the naphthalene-1,5-di­sulfonate ion and all the sulfonate O atoms are hydrogen-bond acceptors, generating fused-ring motifs and a quadruple DDAA array. A halogen-bond (Cl⋯Cl) inter­action is present in (I) with a distance and angle of 3.3505 (12) Å and 151.37 (10)°, respectively. In addition, a C—Cl⋯π inter­action and a π–π inter­action in (I) and a π–π inter­action in (II) further stabilize these crystal structures. PMID:29850062

Activity-guided fractionation of the ether extract of Dumortiera hirsute (Japanese liverwort), using cytotoxicity testing with cultured HL 60 and KB cells, resulted in the isolation of a new cytotoxic bis-bibenzyl compound, along with the two known bis-bibenzyls: isomarchantin C and isoriccardin C. The structural determination of the new bis-bibenzyl through extensive NMR spectral data indicated a derivative of marchantin A, which has been isolated from the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha. The cytotoxicity of the bis-bibenzyls was evaluated by the MTT (3-(4,5-di-methylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay using cultured HL 60 and KB cells.

Several new polyimides containing pendent ethynyl groups were prepared and characterized. The new polyimides were prepared from the following novel ethynyl containing diamines; 1,1-bis(p aminophenyl)-1-(p ethynylphenyl) 2,2,2-trifluoroethane, and 1,1-bis(p aminophenyl)-1-(p phenylethynylphenyl)-2,2,2 trifluoroethane, and 1,1-bis(p aminophenyl)-1-(p hexynylphenyl)-2,2,2 trifluoroethane by reacting with either 3,3',4,4' benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride or 2,2-bis(3,4 dicarboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA). Inherent viscosities for the polymers ranged from 0.26 to 0.94 dL/g. Three copolymers prepared by reacting 10 mole pct. of one of the ethynyl containing diamines and 90 mole pct. of 2,2-bis-(4-(4 aminophenoxy)phenyl) hexafluoropropane with 6FDA were also prepared and characterized. Inherent viscosities for these copolymers ranged from 1.08 to 1.54 dL/g. Original polyimide glass transition temperatures were approx. 265 C while curing at 300 to 350 C for 1 hr in air increased the Tgs by approx. 10 C. Film properties and thermal stability were also measured for these copolyimides.

High precision body composition assessment methods accurately monitor physique traits in athletes. The acute impact of subject presentation (ad libitum food and fluid intake plus physical activity) on body composition estimation using field and laboratory methods has been quantified, but the impact on interpretation of longitudinal change is unknown. This study evaluated the impact of athlete presentation (standardised versus non-standardised) on interpretation of change in physique traits over time. Thirty athletic males (31.2 ± 7.5 years; 182.2 ± 6.5 cm; 91.7 ± 10.3 kg; 27.6 ± 2.6 kg/m 2 ) underwent two testing sessions on 1 day including surface anthropometry, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) and air displacement plethysmography (via the BOD POD), with combinations of these used to establish three-compartment (3C) and four-compartment (4C) models. Tests were conducted after an overnight fast (BASEam) and ~ 7 h later after ad libitum food/fluid and physical activity (BASEpm). This procedure was repeated 6 months later (POSTam and POSTpm). Magnitude of changes in the mean was assessed by standardisation. After 6 months of self-selected training and diet, standardised presentation testing (BASEam to POSTam) identified trivial changes from the smallest worthwhile effect (SWE) in fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM) for all methods except for BIS (FM) where there was a large change (7.2%) from the SWE. Non-standardised follow-up testing (BASEam to POSTpm) showed trivial changes from the SWE except for small changes in FFM (BOD POD) of 1.1%, and in FM (3C and 4C models) of 6.4 and 3.5%. Large changes from the SWE were found in FFM (BIS, 3C and 4C models) of 2.2, 1.8 and 1.8% and in FM (BIS) of 6.4%. Non-standardised presentation testing (BASEpm to POSTpm) identified trivial changes from the SWE in FFM except for BIS which was small (1.1%). A moderate change from the SWE was found for BOD POD (3.3%) and large for BIS (9.4%) in FM estimations. Changes in body composition utilising non-standardised presentation were more substantial and often in the opposite direction to those identified using standardised presentation, causing misinterpretation of change in physique traits. Standardised presentation prior to body composition assessment for athletic populations should be advocated to enhance interpretation of true change.
