Phosphorescent Pt II Systems Featuring Both 2,2′‐Dipyridylamine and 1,3,5‐Triazapentadiene Ligands

2014

The treatment of cis-[Pt(dpa)(RCN)2][SO3CF3]2 {dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamine, R = Me, Et, CH2Ph, Ph; [2a–d](OTf)2} (OTf = SO3CF3) with 2 equiv. of N,N′-diphenylguanidine [NH=C(NHPh)2] in CH2Cl2 solutions at room temp. for 16 h gives [Pt(dpa){NH=C(R)NC(NHPh)=NPh}][SO3CF3] {[3a,b,d](OTf)} as the addition products and [Pt(dpa){NH=C(R)NHC(R)=NH}][SO3CF3]2 {[4a,b](OTf)2} as the tailoring products. The formulation of complexes [3a,b,d](OTf) and [4a,b](OTf)2 was supported by satisfactory C, H, and N elemental analyses and agreeable high-resolution ESI-MS, IR, and 1H (including 1H–1H COSY experiments) and 13C{1H} NMR data. The structures of all of the platinum species were determined by single-crystal …

Formation of (σ‐Alkenyl)‐ and (μ‐Vinylidene)palladium and ‐platinum Complexes by Oxidative Addition of 4,4‐Dichloro‐1,1‐diphenyl‐2‐azabuta‐1,3‐diene …

2003

4,4-Dichloro-1,1-diphenyl-2-azabuta-1,3-diene (1) oxidatively adds to [Pd(PPh3)4] and [Pt(C2H4)(PPh3)2] giving rise to the σ-alkenyl complexes trans-[MCl{[C(Cl)=C(H)−N=CPh2]}(PPh3)2] (2a: M = Pd; 2b: M = Pt). When 1 is treated with [Pd(PPh3)4] in a 1:2 ratio in refluxing toluene, the dimetallic μ-vinylidene complex [(PPh3)ClPd{μ-[C=C(H)−N=CPh2]}PdCl(PPh3)2] (3) is formed. In this fluxional compound, a PPh3 ligands migrates in a reversible manner between the two Pd centers. Substitution of the PPh3 ligands of 3 by 2 equiv. of Ph2PCH2PPh2 affords the A-frame complex [ClPd(μ-dppm)2{μ-[C=C(H)−N=CPh2]}PdCl] (4). (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Copper(I) Complexes of Bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl) Ether:  Synthesis, Reactivity, and Theoretical Calculations

2007

The tricoordinated cationic Cu-I complex [Cu(kappa(2)-P,P'-DPEphos)(kappa(1)-P-DPEphos)][BF4] (1) (DPEphos = bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl) ether) containing a dangling phosphorus center was synthesized from the reaction of [Cu(CH3CN)(4)][BF4] with DPEphos in a 1:2 molar ratio in dichloromethane. When complex 1 is treated with MnO2, elemental sulfur, or selenium, the uncoordinated phosphorus atom undergoes oxidation to form a PE bond resulting in the formation of complexes of the type [Cu(kappa(2)-P,P'-DPEphos)(kappa(2)-P,E-DPEphos-E)][BF4] (2, E = O; 3, E = S; 4, E = Se) containing a Cu-E bond. The zigzag polymeric Cu-I complex [Cu(kappa(2)-P,P'-DPEphos)(mu-4,4'-bpy)](n)[BF4](n) (5) was …

A Combined Theoretical and Experimental Approach for Platinum Catalyzed 1,2-Propanediol Aqueous Phase Reforming

2017

Decomposition pathways of 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) on platinum were investigated by means of experiments and quantum-mechanical calculations. Different reaction paths on a Pt(111) model surface were computationally screened. Gas and liquid phase products distribution for aqueous phase reforming of 1,2-PDO solutions was experimentally analyzed. A mechanistic approach was used to trace the preferred paths according to calculated activation barriers of the elementary steps; in this way, the presence or absence of some hypothesized intermediates in the experiments was computationally rationalized. Hydroxyacetone was demonstrated to be among the most favored decomposition products. The competit…

Electrochemical oxidation of tetramethoxy precursor as a key step for the synthesis of coenzyme Q10

2007

The feasibility of electrosynthesis of coenzyme Q10 (1) by electrooxidation of tetramethoxy precursor (2) has been investigated at carbon, Pt and BDD anodes in a divided cell. The process strongly depends on the applied potential, anode material and water content of the solvent. At carbon anodes in CH3CN/CH2Cl2 + 0.15 M Bu4NBF4 at proper operative conditions high faradic efficiency (>60%) and excellent selectivity (95–97%) of the target product were obtained.

Sensor response time evaluations of trace hydrogen gaseous species with platinum using Kelvin Probe

2012

Kelvin Probe (KP), a non-contact, non-destructive vibrating capacitor device, was used to measure the work function (WF) difference of thin Pt films, deposited on oxidized silicon substrates, with highly diluted H 2 gas, in ppm levels, in the presence of with and without relative humidity (RH). Response times were extracted from the behavior of WF shift as a function of H 2 concentration values. Measurements were compared for zero and non-zero RH conditions at a fixed temperature of 30°C. Changes in WF were evaluated by using HP VEE program, suitably modified for the present measurements. The events were executed step by step for every second time interval through an input formatted file. T…

Subcellular duplex DNA and G‐quadruplex interaction profiling of a hexagonal PtII metallacycle

2019

[Abstract] Metal‐driven self‐assembly afforded a multitude of fascinating supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) with applications as catalysts, host–guest, and stimuli‐responsive systems. However, the interest in the biological applications of SCCs is only starting to emerge and thorough characterization of their behavior in biological milieus is still lacking. Herein, we report on the synthesis and detailed in‐cell tracking of a Pt2L2 metallacycle. We show that our hexagonal supramolecule accumulates in cancer cell nuclei, exerting a distinctive blue fluorescence staining of chromatin resistant to UV photobleaching selectively in nucleolar G4‐rich regions. SCC co‐localizes with epit…

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]

2020

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…
