Fast Pirouetting Motion in a Pyridine Bisamine-Containing Copper-Complexed Rotaxane

2013

The present work reports the introduction of pyridine bisamine terdentate ligands in the structure of a pirouetting copper rotaxane. Rotaxane 2[PF6] constitutes the first example of the incorporation of imine-based dynamic covalent chemistry in the synthesis of switchable copper-complexed interlocked systems. In this rotaxane, the substitution of the classical terpyridine terdentate unit by a pyridine bisamine moiety has led to a significant stabilization of the pentacoordinated site. That fact has been evidenced by EPR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Regarding the tetracoordinated site, the congestion around the coordination sphere has been reduced to accelerate the typically slow reo…

Simple, Fast, Bright, and Stable Light Sources

2012

In this work we show that solution-processed light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) based on only an ionic iridium complex and a small amount of ionic liquid exhibit exceptionally good performances when applying a pulsed current: sub-second turn-on times and almost constant high luminances (>600 cd m(-2) ) and power efficiencies over the first 600 h. This demonstrates the potential of LECs for applications in solid-state signage and lighting.

Infinite coordination polymer networks metallogelation of aminopyridine conjugates and in situ silver nanoparticle formation

2018

Herein we report silver(i) directed infinite coordination polymer network (ICPN) induced self-assembly of low molecular weight organic ligands leading to metallogelation. Structurally simple ligands are derived from 3-aminopyridine and 4-aminopyridine conjugates which are composed of either pyridine or 2,2'-bipyridine cores. The cation specific gelation was found to be independent of the counter anion, leading to highly entangled fibrillar networks facilitating the immobilization of solvent molecules. Rheological studies revealed that the elastic storage modulus (G') of a given gelator molecule is counter anion dependent. The metallogels derived from ligands containing a bipyridine core dis…

Potential anticancer heterometallic Fe-Au and Fe-Pd agents: Initial mechanistic insights

2013

A series of gold(III) and palladium(II) heterometallic complexes with new iminophosphorane ligands derived from ferrocenylphosphanes [{Cp-P(Ph2)═N-Ph}2Fe] (1), [{Cp-P(Ph2)═N-CH2-2-NC5H4}2Fe] (2), and [{Cp-P(Ph2)═N-CH2-2-NC5H4}Fe(Cp)] (3) have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Ligands 2 and 3 afford stable coordination complexes [AuCl2(3)]ClO4, [{AuCl2}2(2)](ClO4)2, [PdCl2(3)], and [{PdCl2}2(2)]. The complexes have been evaluated for their antiproliferative properties in human ovarian cancer cells sensitive and resistant to cisplatin (A2780S/R), in human breast cancer cells (MCF7) and in a nontumorigenic human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK-293T). The highly cytotoxic trimeta…

Phenoxyamidine Zn and Al Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization, and Use in the Ring-Opening Polymerization of Lactide

2019

International audience; Herein we report the synthesis of new ditopic ligands, which consist of a phenoxy group and N,N,N'trisubstituted amidines linked by a methylene spacer (L1-L4). Their coordination chemistry has been studied/investigated with Zn(II) and Al(III). Alkane elimination route between the phenol-amidine proligands (L1H-L4H) and Et2Zn led to dinuclear complexes [(L1-L4)ZnEt]2 (1a-4a) in which the Zn centers are chelated by phenoxyamidine ligands and bridged through the oxygen atom of the phenoxy groups. Salt metathesis reaction between two equivalents of the sodium amidine phenate L1Na and ZnCl2 led to a bis-chelate chiral spiro-complex (L12Zn) 1a'. Analogous alkane eliminatio…

DNA Oxidation Photoinduced by Norharmane Rhenium(I) Polypyridyl Complexes: Effect of the Bidentate N,N′-Ligands on the Damage Profile

2018

Re(I)--polypyridyl complexes have interesting and distinctive photochemical and photosensitizing properties. This work describes the capability to induce (or photoinduce) DNA damage of three Re(I)-complexes with a naturally occurring alkaloid called norharmane (nHo) as ligand: [Re(CO)₃ (nHo)(L)]CF₃ SO₃ where L=2,2'-bipyridine (ReBpy), phenanthroline (RePhen) or dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (ReDppz). The interaction of the complexes with DNA was investigated by steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy. Data show that the mode and strength of interaction depend on the chemical structure of the bidentate ligand. The complexes show a major static contribution to the overall interaction, …

Synthesis and characterization of a novel dicyanamide-bridged Co(II) 1-D coordination polymer with a N 4 -donor Schiff base ligand

2017

The synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of a novel Co(II) 1D coordination polymer, [Co(L)(µ1,5-dca)(ClO4)2·MeOH]n (1) are described. Compound 1 contains two independent cationic Co(II) chains (CoA and CoB) which are parallel to the c direction and present short π-π and C-H⋯π interactions with two neighbouring chains along the b direction, giving rise to alternating layers of chains A and B in the bc plane. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements shows a weak antiferromagnetic coupling among the adjacent cobalt(II) centres mediated through μ1,5-dca− bridge.

Anion modulated structural variations in copper(II) complexes with a semicarbazone Schiff base: Synthesis, characterization and self assembly

2014

Abstract Two copper(II) complexes, [Cu(L)N3]n (1) and [Cu(HL)2](I3)ClO4 (2), where HL = 2-pyridylaldehydesemicarbazone, have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/a, whereas, complex 2 crystallizes in triclinic space group P-1. Complex 1 is a stair-like coordination polymer with square pyramidal geometry of copper(II), whereas, complex 2 is a mononuclear cationic bis-ligand complex of octahedral copper(II). Lower coordination ability of tri-iodide or perchlorate compared to azide may be related with variations of the structures of the complexes.

Quantitative estimation of the antiferromagnetic interaction between Cu(II) and Sm(III) in two dimensional heterometallic coordination polymer with i…

Abstract The syntheses, structure and magnetic property of a novel two dimensional 3d–4f coordination polymer 2∞[CuSmL(NO3)2(IN)], 1 (L2−  = N, N′- propylenedi (3-ehoxysalicylideneiminato), the dianion of the Schiff base obtained from the 2:1 condensation of 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde with 1,3-propanediamine, IN− = the isonicotinate ion) has been reported. The heterobinuclear units are connected through exo-bidentate ligands IN−, leading to an extended 2D structure. A fit of the magnetic susceptibility data yields gCu = 2.109, gSm = 0.476, JCuSm = − 0.893 cm− 1, θ = − 3.37 K, and TIP = 0.001257 emu K mol− 1 with a good discrepancy factor of Rχ = 4.4 × 10− 5. This is the first quantitative esti…
