Dinuclear, tetranuclear and one-dimensional pyrazine-based copper(II) complexes: preparation, X-ray structure and magnetic properties.

2009

The preparation, crystal structures and magnetic properties of the copper(II) complexes of formula [Cu(2)(tppz)(H(2)O)(2)(CF(3)SO(3))(4)] (1), [Cu(tppz)(CrO(4))](n) x 3nH(2)O (2) and [Cu(4)(tppz)(4)(H(2)O)(4)(MoO(4))(2)](CF(3)SO(3))(4) x 7 H(2)O (3) [tppz = 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(2-pyridyl)pyrazine] are reported. Complex 1 is a dinuclear species where tppz adopts a bis-tridentate bridging mode with an intramolecular copper-copper separation of 6.5221(6) A. Each copper(II) ion in 1 has an elongated octahedral geometry with three tppz nitrogen atoms and a water molecule in the equatorial positions and two triflate oxygen atoms occupying the axial sites. Complex 2 is a uniform copper(II) chain where…

Synthesis, Characterization, and X-ray Crystal Structures of Cyclam Derivatives. 5. Copper(II) Binding Studies of a Pyridine-Strapped 5,12-Dioxocycla…

The copper(II) binding properties of the macrobicyclic diamide 1,9,12,18,22-pentaazatricyclo[7.6.6.1(3,7)]docosa-3,5,7(22)-triene-13,19-dione (L1) have been fully investigated by spectroscopic (IR, UV-vis, EPR, MALDI-TOF MS), X-ray diffraction, potentiometric, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical methods. This constrained receptor possesses a hemispherical cavity created by cross-bridging the 1 and 8 positions of trans-dioxocyclam (1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-5,12-dione, L2) with a 2,6-pyridyl strap. Treatment of L1 with a copper salt in methanol produces a red complex of [Cu(L1H(-1))]+ formula in which the copper atom is embedded in a 13-membered ring and coordinated by both a…

Metal complexes of sulfanilamide derivatives. Spectroscopic characterization of the dichloro disulfathiazole methanol copper(II) complex

1993

The synthesis and spectral characterization of the [Cu(Hstz)2(MeOH)Cl2] complex are described. Both polycrystalline powder EPR and single crystal EPR spectra recorded at room temperature show rhombic distortion with values of g1=2.25, g2=2.09 and g3=2.03 in agreement with a copper polyhedron, intermediate between trigonal bipyramid and square pyramidal.

Lack of APP and APLP2 in GABAergic Forebrain Neurons Impairs Synaptic Plasticity and Cognition.

2020

AbstractAmyloid-β precursor protein (APP) is central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease, yet its physiological functions remain incompletely understood. Previous studies had indicated important synaptic functions of APP and the closely related homologue APLP2 in excitatory forebrain neurons for spine density, synaptic plasticity, and behavior. Here, we show that APP is also widely expressed in several interneuron subtypes, both in hippocampus and cortex. To address the functional role of APP in inhibitory neurons, we generated mice with a conditional APP/APLP2 double knockout (cDKO) in GABAergic forebrain neurons using DlxCre mice. These DlxCre cDKO mice exhibit cognitive deficits i…

Thermal expansion and magnetic properties of benzoquinone-bridged dinuclear rare-earth complexes.

2017

The synthesis and structural characterization of two benzoquinone-bridged dinuclear rare-earth complexes [BQ(MCl2·THF3)2] (BQ = 2,5-bisoxide-1,4-benzoquinone; M = Y (1), Dy (2)) are described. Of these reported metal complexes, the dysprosium analogue 2 is the first discrete bridged dinuclear lanthanide complex in which both metal centres reside in pentagonal bipyramidal environments. Interestingly, both complexes undergo significant thermal expansion upon heating from 120 K to 293 K as illustrated by single-crystal X-ray and powder diffraction experiments. AC magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that 2 does not show the slow relation of magnetization in zero dc field. The absent of …

Structural investigations on diorganotin and triorganotin(IV) phosphomycin derivatives.

2008

Abstract Four new diorganotin(IV), (R = Me, Bu), and triorganotin(IV), (R = Me, Ph), derivatives of the phosphomycin disodium salt antibiotic[(1R,2S)-1,2-epoxypropylphosphonate]Na2 have been synthesized and their solid state configuration studied by X-ray crystallography, FT-IR, Mossbauer, UV–Vis spectroscopies. The X-ray diffraction investigation, performed on the bis[trimethyltin(IV)]phosphomycin, showed that the coordination geometry at all the Sn atoms is trigonal bipyramidal. The structure of the complex forms an unusual polymeric zig-zag planar network. The FT-IR and the 119Sn Mossbauer studies supported the formation of trigonal bipyramidal (Tbp) molecular structures, both in the dio…

Abstract The use of the mononuclear rhenium(II) precursor NBu4[Re(NO)Br4(H2pydc)]·i-PrOH (1) (H2pydc = 3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid) as a metalloligand towards Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) afforded three new heterobimetallic complexes [Re(NO)Br4(μ-Hpydc)Cu(4,4′-dmbipy)2]·(CH3)2CO·0.25MeCN (2), [Re(NO)Br4(μ-Hpydc)Ni(dmphen)2]·MeCN (3) and [Re(NO)Br4(μ-Hpydc)Co(dmphen)2]·2H2O (4), respectively [4,4′-dmbipy = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and Bu4N+ = tetra-n-butylammonium]. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 are reported herein together with the cryomagnetic investigation of 1–4 in the temperature range of 2.0–300 K. 1 is a mononuclear compound whose str…

Structural chemistry of complexes of ( ? 1)d s metal ions with ?-N-donor substituted thiolate ligands (=0, 2)

2005

Abstract The molecular structures of several d 10 metal ion complexes with 2-amino or 2-imino substituted thiolate ligands, derived from 2-aminoethanethiol, 2-(mercaptomethyl)pyridine, 2-aminobenzenethiole, and 8-mercaptoquinoline, are presented. Since ligand field stabilization energy is absent, the complexes display a large variety of co-ordination numbers and geometries around the metal centers. Distortions from ideal tetrahedral or trigonal bipyramidal configurations are discussed in terms of special structural parameters. In contrast to thiolate ligands that lack additional donor atoms and thus form oligo- or poly-nuclear complexes, the β-N donor group stabilizes mono-nuclear complexes…

2008

Abstract Reactions of sodium 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]quinolin-8-olates (LH, where the aryl group is an R-substituted phenyl ring such that for L1H: R = H; L2H: R = 2′-CH3; L3H: R = 3′-CH3; L4H: R = 4′-CH3; L5H: R = 4′-OCH3 and L6H: R = 4′-OC2H5) with Ph3SnCl in a 1:1 molar ratio yielded complexes of composition Ph3SnL. The complexes have been characterized by 1H, 13C, 119Sn NMR, IR and 119mSn Mossbauer spectroscopic techniques in combination with elemental analyses. The crystal structures of Ph3SnL1 · 0.5C6H6 (1), Ph3SnL2 (2), Ph3SnL5 · C6H6 (5) and Ph3SnL6 · 0.5C6H6 (6) were determined. The results of the X-ray studies indicated that the benzene solvated compounds 1, 5 and 6 are distort…
