Synthesis, Structures, and Solution Studies of a New Class of [Mo2O2S2]-Based Thiosemicarbazone Coordination Complexes

This paper deals with the synthesis, structural studies, and behavior in solution of unprecedented coordination complexes built by the association of a panel of 14 representative thiosemicarbazone ligands with the cluster [Mo2O2S2]2+. These complexes have been thoroughly characterized both in the solid state and in solution by XRD and by NMR, respectively. In particular, HMBC 1H{15N} and 1H DOSY NMR experiments bring important elements for understanding the complexes' behavior in solution. These studies demonstrate that playing on the nature and the position of various substituents on the ligands strongly influences the coordination modes of the ligands as well as the numbers of isomers in …

Synthesis and Characterization of Copper Complexes Containing the Tripodal N7 Ligand Tris{2-[(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyl}amine (=N′-(Pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-N,N-bis{2-[(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyl}ethane-1,2-diamine): Equilibrium, Spectroscopic Data, and Crystal Structures of Mono- and Trinuclear Copper(II) Complexes

The stability constants of the CuII chelates with the tripodal heptadentate ligand tris{2-[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]ethyl}amine (=N′-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-N,N-bis{2-[(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyl}ethane-1,2-diamine; tpaa), determined by potentiometry and UV spectrometry, show the formation of [Cu(tpaaH)]3+ and [Cu(tpaa)]2+ species. In the solid state, two mononuclear CuII compounds, [Cu(tpaa)](PF6)2 (1) and [Cu(tpaaH)](ClO4)3⋅H2O (2), and one trinuclear [Cu3(tpaa)2(ClO4)2](ClO4)4⋅2 H2O (3) complex were isolated and characterized by IR, UV/VIS, and EPR spectroscopy. An X-ray structure of the mononuclear protonated complex 2 shows that the Cu2+ ion has a distorted square-pyramidal geometry (τ=…

Correction: One-pot synthesis of a new generation of hybrid bisphosphonate polyoxometalate gold nanoparticles as antibiofilm agents

A reduced polyoxovanadate functionalized with bisphosphonate molecules was synthesized and used to prepare in one step hybrid organic–inorganic polyoxometalate decorated gold nanoparticles. These new composites were shown to strongly inhibit P. aeruginosa and S. epidermidis biofilm growth, with the three components constituting the nanoparticles (Au0 core, vanadium and alendronate) acting synergistically.
