Tuning the pH-Switch of Supramolecular Polymer Carriers for siRNA to Physiologically Relevant pH
2017
The preparation of histidine enriched dendritic peptide amphiphiles and their self-assembly into multicomponent pH-switchable supramolecular polymers is reported. Alternating histidine and phenylalanine peptide synthons allow the assembly/disassembly to be adjusted in a physiologically relevant range of pH 5.3-6.0. Coassembly of monomers equipped with dendritic tetraethylene glycol chains with monomers bearing peripheral primary amine groups leads to nanorods with a tunable cationic surface charge density. These surface functional supramolecular polycations are able to reversibly bind short interfering RNA (siRNA). The nanorod-like supramolecular polymers, their complexation with siRNA, and…
Ruthenium Metallodendrimers Based on Nitrile‐Functionalized Poly(alkylidene imine)s
2005
The preparation of the first- and second-generation of nitrile-functionalized poly(alkylidene imine) dendrimers with the organometallic ruthenium complex [Ru(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2Cl] peripherally attached is described. The reaction of N,N′-bis(cyanomethyl)piperazine (1), N,N′-bis[N′′,N′′′-bis(cyanoethyl)aminoethyl]piperazine (2), or N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(cyanoethyl)ethylenediamine (3) with [Ru(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2Cl] (4) in the presence of TlPF6 gives the new air-stable ruthenium metallodendrimers 5, 6, and 7, respectively. These stable metallodendrimers are easily prepared and represent a novel quantitative method to solidify and chromatographically purify the otherwise semi-liquid nitrile-functionalize…

2010
Complete functionalization of N,N,N',N'-[tetrakis(cyanoethyl)-hexamethylenediamine] [N≡C(CH 2 ) 2 ] 2 N(CH 2 ) 6 N[(CH 2 ) 2 -C≡N] 2 (4) and N,N,N',N'-(tetrakis(cyanoethoxypropyl)hexamethylenediamine] [N≡C(CH 2 ) 2 O(CH 2 ) 3 ] 2 N(CH 2 ) 6 N[(CH 2 ) 3 -O(CH 2 ) 2 C≡N] 2 (7) with the organometallic moiety [Ru(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )(PPh 3 ) 2 Cl] and the five-coordinate cis-[RuCl(dppe) 2 ]-[PF 6 ] [dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethane] was attained with good yield, respectively, by treating the metallo-fragment with the core in methanol (at room temperature and in presence of TIPF 6 as a chloride abstractor) and in 1,2-dichloroethane (under reflux). These novel nitrile-functionalized poly(alkyli…
Interferometric microscopy study of the surface roughness of Portland cement under the action of different irrigants
2013
Objectives: Some investigations suggested common Portland cement (PC) as a substitute material for MTA for endodontic use; both MTA and PC have a similar composition. The aim of this study was to determine the surface roughness of common PC before and after the exposition to different endodontic irrigating solutions: 10% and 20% citric acid, 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic (EDTA) and 5% sodium hypochlorite. Study Design: Fifty PC samples in the form of cubes were prepared. PC was mixed with distilled water (powder/liquid ratio 3:1 by weight). The samples were immersed for one minute in 10% and 20% citric acid, 17% EDTA and 5% sodium hypochlorite. After gold coating, PC samples were examined …
A methylenediphosphonate bridged copper(II) tetramer: Synthesis, structural, thermal, and magnetic characterization of [Cu4(H2O)2(phen)4(μ-P2O6CH2)2]…
2019
Abstract A novel tetracopper(II) complex namely, [Cu4(H2O)2(phen)4(μ-P2O6CH2)2]·21H2O (1) was synthesized by using copper(II) chloride, 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and methylene diphosphonic acid (MDP). The structure of 1 was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and spectroscopy. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system, P 1 ¯ space group and its crystal structure consists of neutral centrosymmetric tetranuclear copper(II)-methylene diphosphonate units where each peripheral {Cu(phen)(P2O6CH2)}2− fragment adopts the bidentate(Oeq-P-Oeq)/monodentate (Oax) bridging mode towards each of the two inner {Cu(phen)}2+ entities resulting in a “clamshell”-like orientation. The two …
Bis(terpyridyl)-ruthenium(II) units attached to polyazacycloalkanes as sensing fluorescent receptors for transition metal ions
2000
A synthetic strategy has been devised for the preparation of new compounds in which terpyridyl fragments are linked to 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (cyclam). Reaction of excess cyclam with 4′-[(4-bromomethyl)phenyl]-2,2′:2″,6′-terpyridine afforded the ligand 1-[4′-p-tolyl-(2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridyl)]-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (L1) in which the tetraaza macrocycle was covalently attached to one benzyl-terpyridyl fragment. Under similar conditions reaction of cyclam with excess 4′-[(4-bromomethyl)phenyl]-2,2′:2″,6′-terpyridine gave the tetra substituted cyclam derivative 1,4,8,11-[4′-p-tolyl-(2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridyl)]-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (L2). The multidentate ligand L2 w…
New cyanide-bridged Mn(III)-M(III) heterometallic dinuclear complexes constructed from [M(III)(AA)(CN)4]- building blocks (M = Cr and Fe): synthesis,…
2011
Three Mn(III)-M(III) (M = Cr and Fe) dinuclear complexes have been obtained by assembling [Mn(III)(SB)(H(2)O)](+) and [M(III)(AA)(CN)(4)](-) ions, where SB is the dianion of the Schiff-base resulting from the condensation of 3-methoxysalicylaldehyde with ethylenediamine (3-MeOsalen(2-)) or 1,2-cyclohexanediamine (3-MeOsalcyen(2-)): [Mn(3-MeOsalen)(H(2)O)(µ-NC)Cr(bipy)(CN)(3)]·2H(2)O (1), [Mn(3-MeOsalen)(H(2)O)(µ-NC)Cr(ampy)(CN)(3)][Mn(3-MeOsalen)(H(2)O)(2)]ClO(4)·2H(2)O (2) and [Mn(3-MeOsalcyen)(H(2)O)(µ-NC)Fe(bpym)(CN)(3)]·3H(2)O (3) (bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine, ampy = 2-aminomethylpyridine and bpym = 2,2'-bipyrimidine). The [M(AA)(CN)(4)](-) unit in 1-3 acts as a monodentate ligand towards th…
Binuclear Ni(II) complexes based on bridging oxalate and tetracyanometallates.
2002
The trimeric complexes, [{Ni(dien)}2(m-ox){(m-Pd(CN)4)}] (2) and [{Ni(dien)}2(m-ox){(m-Pt(CN)4)}] (3) were synthesised by the reaction of [{Ni(dien)(H2O)}2(m-ox)](PF6)2/2H2O (dien � /dietylenetriamine and ox� /oxalate) with K2Pd(CN)4 and K2Pt(CN)4, respectively. In this reaction, water substitution and molecular reconstruction reactions take place to afford trimer complexes. These compounds are isostructural with the molecular compound [{Ni(dien)}2(m-ox){(m-Ni(CN)4)}] (1). In each complex, the two octahedrally coordinated Ni atoms are oxalate bridged and the sphere of coordination of each Ni is completed by three nitrogen atoms from a diethylenetriamine ligand in fac arrangement and one nit…
Iron(ii) complexes of tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPMA) and neutral bidentate ligands showing thermal- and photo-induced spin crossover
2018
Three new mononuclear Fe(ii) complexes have been prepared and characterized by the combination of tetradentate tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPMA) with three neutral bidentate ligands, such as ethylenediamine (en), 1,2-diaminopropane (pn) and 2-picolylamine (2-pic), in compounds [FeII(TPMA)(en)](ClO4)2 (1), [FeII(TPMA)(2-pic)](ClO4)2 (2) and [FeII(TPMA)(pn)](ClO4)2 (3). Structural and magnetic characterization demonstrates that the three compounds present a complete SCO behavior. The absence of strong intermolecular interactions and solvent molecules leads to reversible and gradual spin transitions. The different ligands allow tuning T1/2 from 130 K (2) to 325 K (3). The compound with the low…

1995
The series of organotin halide complexes with tetraethyl ethylene- and propylene-diphosphonates R n SnX 4-n .L [n=0, X=Cl; n=1, R=Me, X=Cl, Br; n=1, R=Ph, X=Cl; n=2 R=Me, Et, Bu, X=Cl, Br; n=2, R=Ph, X=Cl; L=(EtO) 2 P(O)CH 2 CHR'P(O)(OEt) 2 , R'=H, Me] were synthesized and characterized by means of NMR and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the complex of diphenyltin dichloride with propylenediphosphonate was determined. The complex consists of polymer chains with bridging bidentate ligands and an octahedral tin environment containing two types of phosphoryl fragments. All of the R 2 SnX 2 adducts have trans-R 2 SnX 4 geometries of tin coordination octahedra according to the q…
