Outer and inner coordination sphere chemistry of polyazacyclophane platinum(II) complexes. Crystal structure of [PtBr4]2(H4L1) · H2O (L1 = 2,6,9,13-tetraaza[14]paracyclophane)
Abstract The interaction of PtCl42− with the new azaparacyclophane 2,5,8,11-tetraaza[12]paracyclophane (L2) has been studied by 1H, 13C and 195Pt NMR spectroscopy. Three different complexes are detected as a function of pH, all of them presenting cis-arrangement of nitrogen donors and chloride anions. In the first one, formed at acidic pH, the central nitrogen atoms of the macrocyclic are coordinating to Pt(II) while the benzylic nitrogens remain protonated. Deprotonation of these nitrogens brings about a reorganisation of the complex, and the platinum is then coordinated by one benzylic nitrogen and the consecutive nitrogen in the macrocycle. This process can be monitored by NMR. Finally, …
Synthesis and protonation behaviour of the macrocycle 2,6,10,13,17,21-hexaaza[22]metacyclophane. Thermodynamic and NMR studies on the interaction of 2,6,10,13,17,21-hexaaza[22]metacyclophane and on the open-chain polyamine 4,8,11,15-tetraazaoctadecane-1,18-diamine with ATP, ADP and AMP
Abstract The novel cyclophane receptor 2,6,10,13,17,21-hexaaza[22]metacyclophane (L) has been synthesised and characterised. The acid-base behaviour and interaction with ATP, ADP and AMP have been studied by potentiometry in 0.15 mol dm−3 at 298.1 K and multinuclear NMR. L presents in its protonated forms a molecular organization which enables its multipoint binding with nucleotides. Salt-bridge formation occur between the polyammonium sites of L and the phosphate chain of the nucleotides while π-stacking between the meta-phenylene subunit incorporated in the receptor and the adenine ring of the nucleotides.
Complexes of Tungsten(VI) with Mucic Acid: a Spectrophotometric and Polarimetric Study in Aqueous Solution
Abstract Spectrophotometric work on mucic acid-W(VI) system shows the formation of three different oxoanion complexes in aqueous solution; their stability is dependent upon pH. One of the complexes is monomeric tungstodimucate and the other two are 2/2 species. An anomalous cryoscopic behaviour, similar to that of W(VI) tartaric system, has been observed for the dimeric complex formed at higher pH. The stoichiometries and conditional dissociation constants have been polarimetrically determined by means of competitive reactions between the mucic and tartaric ligands. 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra have been interpreted for the similar complex species of both mucic and tartaric acids.
