Copper(ii) and Zn(ii) coordination chemistry of tetraaza[n]cyclophanes
2003
The acid–base behaviour and Zn2+ and Cu2+ metal coordination chemistry of the novel orthocyclophane ligands 2,5,8,11-tetraaza[12]orthocyclophane (L2) and 2,5,9,12-tetraaza[13]orthocyclophane (L3) and metacyclophane 2,5,8,11-tetraaza[12]metacylophane (L1) are studied. Important differences in the chemistry of these compounds are found depending on the substitution of the aromatic ring. The ortho derivatives are much more basic in their first two protonation steps while the metacyclophane presents much larger constants in the third and fourth protonation stages. The crystal structure of the picrate salt of [H2L3]2+ shows an alternate disposition of the protons in the molecule with formation o…
Generation of [2×2] Grid Metallosupramolecular Architectures from Preformed Ditopic Bis(acylhydrazone) Ligands and through Component Self‐Assembly
2007
Ditopic bis(acylhydrazone) ligands, derived from the reactions of carbohydrazides with 2-phenylpyrimidine-4,6-dicarbaldehyde and designed for grid formation with octahedrally coordinating transition-metal ions, exhibit a varied coordination chemistry depending upon the degree of their deprotonation. The neutral acylhydrazones are relatively poor ligands and are seemingly involved in multiple, labile complexation equilibria varying with the solvent and the particular metal salt in solution; nevertheless, grid complexes of different forms can be isolated in the solid state. Although only limited study has been made of the singly deprotonated ligands, grid species appear to be much more readil…
Reactivity Towards Acidic Protic Ligands of Cyclopalladated Di‐μ‐hydroxo Complexes
2008
The dinuclear hydroxo complexes [{Pd(μ-OH)(C∧N)}2] [C∧N = 2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl (Phpy) (I), 7,8-benzoquinolyl (Bzq) (II) and 2-(2-oxazolinyl)phenyl (Phox) (III)] react in a 1:2 molar ratio with a wide variety of protic electrophiles H(L∧L) bearing different sets of donor atoms (L∧L = O∧O or O∧N) to give the mononuclear neutral palladium(II) derivatives with the general formula [Pd(L∧L)(C∧N)] [O∧O = salicylaldehydate (sal) (1), acetylacetonate (acac) (2) and benzoylacetonate (bzac) (3); O∧N = N-phenylsalicylaldiminate (N-Phsal) (4), N-p-chlorophenylsalicylaldiminate (N-pClPhsal) (5), 2-pyrrolecarbaldeydate (2-pcal) (6), 8-hydroxyquinolinate (oxin) (7)]. Structural characterisation of complexes…
Synthesis of N-methyl alkylaminomethane-1,1-diphosphonic acids and evaluation of their complex-formation abilities towards copper(II)
2015
Abstract A series of N -methyl alkylaminomethane-1,1-diphosphonic acids ( 3a – g ) with a common tertiary nitrogen atom (CH 3 –N–R) bearing linear or branched alkyl, cycloheptyl or phenylalkyl R substituents was synthesized in the reaction of diethylphosphonate with triethyl orthoformate and secondary amine followed by hydrolysis, and by the Eschweiler–Clarke methylation of the alkylaminomethane-1,1-diphosphonic acids with formic acid and formaldehyde. Complex-formation abilities of 3a – g towards copper(II) in solution were studied by means of pH-potentiometry, ESI-MS spectrometry, UV–Vis and EPR methods. Evaluation of stability constants for the Cu(II) complexes of 3a – g has revealed the…
Stereocontrolled solid-phase synthesis of fluorinated partially-modified retropeptides via tandem aza-Michael/enolate-protonation
2003
N-Acylation of Wang resin-bound l-α-amino acids with 2-trifluoromethyl-propenoyl chloride, followed by asymmetric tandem aza-Michael/enolate-protonation by a series of l-α-amino esters and final release from the resin, afforded a representative library of partially-modified retropeptides incorporating a stereodefined trifluoroalanine surrogate. The stereocontrol can be dramatically improved (up to 15:1) by using apolar solvents like carbon tetrachloride and DABCO as base.
Salt effects on the protonation of l-histidine and l-aspartic acid: a complex formation model
1991
Abstract Protonation constants of l -histidine (histidinate: his − ) and l -aspartic acid (aspartate: asp 2− ) were determined potentiometrically, using the (H + ) glass electrode, in aqueous tetraethylammonium iodide (Et 4 NI), calcium chloride and sodium chloride solutions, at 0 −3 and 10 ⩽, T ⩽, 45 ° C. Differences in protonation constants determined in different salt media were explained by a complex formation model and, according to this model, the presence of the following species was hypothesized: Ca(his) + , CaH(his) 2+ , CaH 2 (his) 3+ Na(his) 0 , H 3 (his)X + , H 2 (his)X 0 , Et 4 N(his) 0 , Et 4 NH(his) + , Ca(asp) 0 , CaH(asp) + , CaH 2 (asp) 2+ , Na(asp) − , NaH(asp) 0 , H 3 (a…
Fatty Acid Aggregates Simulated using Constant pH Molecular Dynamics with a Coarse-Grained Model
2013
Fatty acids are crucial biomolecules, important for lipid metabolism, signaling, models for protocell membranes, soaps, industrial applications, and drug delivery. Oleic acid has complex phase behavior with respect to the protonation state of the carboxylic head group, which depends on the pH of the solution. Oils form at low pHs, vesicles at intermediate pHs, and micelles at high pHs. We use constant pH molecular dynamics with the MARTINI coarse-grained model to investigate oleic acid aggregates at different pH conditions. We determine titration curves for the oleic acid monomers in different aggregates, and observe a shift in the microscopic pKa. In agreement with experimental results, th…
Oxo and Hydroxo Tantalocene Complexes: Synthesis and Reactivity. X-ray Molecular Structures of [(η5-Cp*)TaCl(OH)(η5-C5H4SiMe3)]+Cl-, (η5-Cp*)TaCl(O)…
2005
Exposure of a THF solution of tantalocene dichloride complexes (η 5 -Cp*)TaCl 2 (η 5 -C 5 H 4 -SiMe 3 ) (1) and (η 5 -Cp*)TaCl 2 (η 5 -C 5 H 5 ) (2) to the ambient atmosphere for 12 h leads to the formation of new tantalum(V) cationic hydroxo complexes [(η 5 -Cp*)TaCl(OH)(η 5 -C 5 H 4 SiMe 3 )] + -Cl- (3) and [(η 5 -Cp*)TaCl(OH)(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )]+Cl - (4). This oxidation reaction is more rapid under oxygen atmosphere since the hydroxo complexes are obtained in better yields within only 15 min. The hydroxo complexes are easily deprotonated by base to generate oxo complexes 5 and 6, which, in turn, react with trimethylsilyl triflate, giving the corresponding cationic silylated complexes 7 and 8…
Characterization of some triphenyltin(IV) complexes of 5-(arylazo)salicylaldehyde ligands using IR, 1H, 13C, 119Sn NMR and 119Sn Mössbauer spectrosco…
1994
Abstract Coordination complexes of 5-(arylazo)salicylaldehyde with triphenyltin chloride have been prepared and subjected to IR, multinuclear NMR (1H, 13C, 119Sn) and 119Sn Mossbauer spectroscopy. 5-(Arylazo)salicylaldehyde forms two types of complexes viz. triorganotin adducts and phenoxides. In the adducts, the protonated ligand coordinates through the aldehydic oxygen atom while in phenoxides, the coordination occurs via the phenolic oxygen atom and the oxygen atom of the aldehydic group. The spectroscopic data suggest that both types of complexes adopt a cis-trigonal bipyramidal geometry around tin.
Interaction of Dimethyltin(IV)2+ Cation with Gly-Gly, Gly-His, and Some Related Ligands. A New Case of a Metal Ion Able To Promote Peptide Nitrogen D…
1999
Equilibrium (pH-metric) and spectroscopic (1H,13C, and 119Sn NMR and 119Sn Mossbauer) studies were performed to characterize the interaction of the dimethyltin(IV) cation with glycine, glycyl-glycine (Gly-Gly), imidazole-4-acetic acid, histamine, histidine, glycyl-histamine, glycyl-histidine (Gly-His), and β-alanyl-histidine (carnosine). For histamine and glycyl-histamine (having only nitrogen donor atoms) no complex formation was detected. The hydrolyzed species of the dimethyltin(IV) cation are always dominant over the complexes formed with the other ligands, except with Gly-Gly and Gly-His. For these two ligands, {COO-,N-,NH2} coordinated complexes are dominant in the neutral pH range wi…
