A DFT mechanistic study of the synthesis of trans-Z,Z-[PtIICl(NH3){HN = C(NH2)Me}2]Cl from addition of NH3 to trans-[PtIICl2(N CMe)2]

Abstract The reaction mechanism between trans-[PtIICl2(N CMe)2] and ammonia to give trans-Z,Z-[PtIICl(NH3){HN = C(NH2)Me}2]Cl has been studied at DFT level. Results showed that, in dichloromethane solution at 263.15 K, the chloride substitution by the ammonia on platinum is a process kinetically more favoured than the ammonia nucleophilic addition to the nitrile of about three orders of magnitude, and hence the nucleophilic addition reaction occurs after. Finally, both nucleophilic addition steps are geometrically driven to give products in the E configuration even if the final products were experimentally observed in the Z configuration. For trans-Z,Z-[PtIICl(NH3)(N CMe)2, the isomerizatio…

Curcumin (CUR), a polyphenolic compound extracted from Curcuma longa L.,can beconsidered as a good lead compound for the design of new drugs for the treatment of cancer and other therapeutic purposes. CUR is endowed with a diketone function, which appears to be important for its antitumor activity: also depending on the dose, the compound may show complex either pro-oxidant or anti-oxidant effects, which both may, at least in part, be linked to this structural moiety. In the lower concentration, "chemopreventive", range, CUR behaves mainly as an antioxidant; at higher concentrations, the a, b-unsaturated 1,3-diketone, as a Michael acceptor, can form adducts with the –SH groups and generate …
