Monomers, dimers, and trimers of [Au(CN)(2)] in a Ba(diaza-18-crown-6) coordination polymer.

ABSTRACT: The structure of the title compound, poly[triaquatetra-?-cyanido-tetracyanidobis-(1,4,10,13-tetra-oxa-7,16-diaza-cyclo-octa-deca-ne)di-barium(II)tetra-gold(I)], [Au(4)Ba(2)(CN)(8)(C(12)H(26)N(2)O(4))(2)(H(2)O)(3)](n), displays O-H?N hydrogen bonding between water molecules and cyano ligands and an unusual pattern of aurophilic inter-actions that yields a monomer, dimer, and trimer of [Au(CN)(2)](-) within the same crystal structure. In two of the five Au positions, the atom resides on a center of inversion. The overall arrangement is that of a coordination polymer assisted by aurophilic and hydrogen-bonded inter-actions.

Metalloporphines: Dimers and Trimers.

Project description:Procedures for the purification and subsequent crystallization of the slightly soluble four-coordinate metallporphines, the simplest possible porphyrin derivatives, are described. Crystals of the porphine derivatives of cobalt(II), copper(II), platinum(II), and two polymorphs of zinc(II) were obtained. Analysis of the crystal and molecular structures shows that all except the platinum(II) derivative form an unusual trimeric species in the solid state. The isomorphous cobalt(II), copper(II), and one zinc(II) polymorph pack in the unit cell to form dimers as well as the trimers. Interplanar spacings between porphine rings are similar in both the dimers and trimers and range between 3.24 and 3.37 Å. Porphine rings are strongly overlapped with lateral shifts between ring centers in both the dimers and trimers with values between 1.52 and 1.70 Å or in Category S as originally defined by Scheidt and Lee. Periodic trends in the M-Np bond distances parallel those observed previously for tetraphenyl- and octaethylporphyrin derivatives.

Vapochromic behaviour of M[Au(CN)2]2-based coordination polymers (M = Co, Ni).

Project description:A series of M[Au(CN)(2)](2)(analyte)(x) coordination polymers (M = Co, Ni; analyte = dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), pyridine; x = 2 or 4) was prepared and characterized. Addition of analyte vapours to solid M(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2) yielded visible vapochromic responses for M = Co but not M = Ni; the IR ?(CN) spectral region changed in every case. A single crystal structure of Zn[Au(CN)(2)](2)(DMSO)(2) revealed a corrugated 2-D layer structure with cis-DMSO units. Reacting a Ni(II) salt and K[Au(CN)(2)] in DMSO yielded the isostructural Ni[Au(CN)(2)](2)(DMSO)(2) product. Co[Au(CN)(2)](2)(DMSO)(2) and M[Au(CN)(2)](2)(DMF)(2) (M = Co, Ni) complexes have flat 2-D square-grid layer structures with trans-bound DMSO or DMF units; they are formed via vapour absorption by solid M(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2) and from DMSO or DMF solution synthesis. Co[Au(CN)(2)](2)(pyridine)(4) is generated via vapour absorption by Co(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2); the analogous Ni complex is synthesized by immersion of Ni(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2) in 4% aqueous pyridine. Similar immersion of Co(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2) yielded Co[Au(CN)(2)](2)(pyridine)(2), which has a flat 2-D square-grid structure with trans-pyridine units. Absorption of pyridine vapour by solid Ni(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2) was incomplete, generating a mixture of pyridine-bound complexes. Analyte-free Co[Au(CN)(2)](2) was prepared by dehydration of Co(?-OH(2))[Au(CN)(2)](2) at 145 °C; it has a 3-D diamondoid-type structure and absorbs DMSO, DMF and pyridine to give the same materials as by vapour absorption from the hydrate.

Synthesis and Characterization of Macrocyclic Polyether N,N'-Diallyl-7,16-diaza-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-dibenzo-18-crown-6.

Project description:In this study an efficient and direct production procedure for a macrocyclic polyether N,N'-diallyl-7,16-diaza-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-dibenzo-18-crown-6 from the reaction of catechol and N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)prop-2-en-1-amine in n-butanol in the presence of a strong base is reported. The synthesis involves a two-step addition of sodium hydroxide to enhance the cyclization process, and at the end of the reaction, the reaction mixture is neutralized and the solvent replaced with water in-situ through distillation to afford a relatively pure precipitate that is easily recrystallized from acetone. The yield of the macrocycle was 36%-45% and could be scaled-up to one-mole quantities. The structure and purity of this compound was verified on the basis of elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, ¹H-, (13)C-NMR, 2D-NMR, mass spectroscopy, and thermal analysis. The white crystalline compound has a sharp melting point of 124 °C and a crystallization temperature of 81.4 °C determined by differential scanning calorimetry. Our motivation behind the synthesis of the bibracchial lariat azacrown polyether ligand was to examine its possible applications in ion-selective polymer-supported materials.

Crystal structure of [K(18-crown-6)]+ 2[Pt(CN)4]2.

Project description:In the title compound, di-μ-cyanato-1:2κ2 N:C;2:3κ2 C:N-di-cyanato-2κ2 C-bis-(1,4,7,10,13,16-hexa-oxa-cyclo-octa-deca-ne)-1κ6 O;3κ6 O-1,3-dipotassium(I)-2-platinum(II), [K2Pt(CN)4(C12H24O6)2] or [K(18-crown-6)]2·[Pt(CN)4], two trans-orientated cyano groups of the square-planar [Pt(CN)4]2- dianion (Pt site symmetry ) bind to one potassium ion each, which are additionally coordinated by the six O atoms of 18-crown-6. No Pt⋯Pt inter-actions occur in the crystal, but very weak Pt⋯H contacts (2.79 Å) are observed.

Functionally distinct monomers and trimers produced by a viral oncoprotein.

Project description:While the process of homo-oligomer formation and disassembly into subunits represents a common strategy to regulate protein activity, reports of proteins in which the subunit and homo-oligomer perform independent functions are scarce. Tumorigenesis induced by the adenovirus E4-ORF1 oncoprotein depends on its binding to a select group of cellular PDZ proteins, including MUPP1, MAGI-1, ZO-2 and Dlg1. We report here that in cells E4-ORF1 exists as both a monomer and trimer and that monomers specifically bind and sequester MUPP1, MAGI-1 and ZO-2 within insoluble complexes whereas trimers specifically bind Dlg1 and promote its translocation to the plasma membrane. This work exposes a novel strategy wherein the oligomerization state of a protein not only determines the capacity to bind separate related targets but also couples the interactions to different functional consequences.

Folding and unfolding of gammaTIM monomers and dimers.

Project description:Kinetic simulations of the folding and unfolding of triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) from yeast were conducted using a single monomer gammaTIM polypeptide chain that folds as a monomer and two gammaTIM chains that fold to the native dimer structure. The basic protein model used was a minimalist Gō model using the native structure to determine attractive energies in the protein chain. For each simulation type--monomer unfolding, monomer refolding, dimer unfolding, and dimer refolding--thirty simulations were conducted, successfully capturing each reaction in full. Analysis of the simulations demonstrates four main conclusions. First, all four simulation types have a similar "folding order", i.e., they have similar structures in intermediate stages of folding between the unfolded and folded state. Second, despite this similarity, different intermediate stages are more or less populated in the four different simulations, with 1), no intermediates populated in monomer unfolding; 2), two intermediates populated with beta(2)-beta(4) and beta(1)-beta(5) regions folded in monomer refolding; 3), two intermediates populated with beta(2)-beta(3) and beta(2)-beta(4) regions folded in dimer unfolding; and 4), two intermediates populated with beta(1)-beta(5) and beta(1)-beta(5) + beta(6) + beta(7) + beta(8) regions folded in dimer refolding. Third, simulations demonstrate that dimer binding and unbinding can occur early in the folding process before complete monomer-chain folding. Fourth, excellent agreement is found between the simulations and MPAX (misincorporation proton alkyl exchange) experiments. In total, this agreement demonstrates that the computational Gō model is accurate for gammaTIM and that the energy landscape of gammaTIM appears funneled to the native state.

Dipodal Tetraamide Derivatives of 1,10-Diaza-18-Crown-6 and Alkylmalonic Acids-Synthesis and Use as Ionophores in Ion Selective Membrane Electrodes.

Project description:Novel dipodal derivatives of an 18-membered diaza-crown ether with two diamide chains featuring methylmalonic or butylmalonic acid residues were obtained and tested as ionophores in ion-selective plasticized membrane electrodes. The objective of the study was to identify measurement conditions which ensure the most favorable performance for magnesium ion-selective electrodes. The relationship between the molar lipophilic anion salt-to-ionophore ratio and selectivity of electrodes was examined. The best result was obtained for the conventional electrode containing Mg2 ionophore. Calculated selectivity coefficients were as follows: logKMg/Ca = -2.77, logKMg/Na = -3.46 and logKMg.K = -2.24 (SSM, 1M).

Enzyme-free ligation of dimers and trimers to RNA primers.

Project description:The template-directed formation of phosphodiester bonds between two nucleic acid components is a pivotal process in biology. To induce such a reaction in the absence of enzymes is a challenge. This challenge has been met for the extension of a primer with mononucleotides, but the ligation of short oligonucleotides (dimers or trimers) has proven difficult. Here we report a method for ligating dimers and trimers of ribonucleotides using in situ activation in aqueous buffer. All 16 different dimers and two trimers were tested. Binding studies by NMR showed low millimolar dissociation constants for complexes between representative dimers and hairpins mimicking primer-template duplexes, confirming that a weak template effect is not the cause of the poor ligating properties of these short oligomers. Rather, cyclization was found to compete with ligation, with up to 90% of dimer being converted to the cyclic form during the course of an assay. This side reaction is strongly sequence dependent and more pronounced for dimers than for trimers. Under optimized reaction conditions, high yields were observed with strongly pairing purines at the 3'-terminus. These results show that short oligomers of ribonucleotides are competent reactants in enzyme-free copying.

Combinatorial Synthesis of Structurally Diverse Triazole-Bridged Flavonoid Dimers and Trimers.

Project description:Flavonoids are a large family of compounds associated with a broad range of biologically useful properties. In recent years, synthetic compounds that contain two flavonoid units linked together have attracted attention in drug discovery and development projects. Numerous flavonoid dimer systems, incorporating a range of monomers attached via different linkers, have been reported to exhibit interesting bioactivities. From a medicinal chemistry perspective, the 1,2,3-triazole ring system has been identified as a particularly attractive linker moiety in dimeric derivatives (owing to several favourable attributes including proven biological relevance and metabolic stability) and triazole-bridged flavonoid dimers possessing anticancer and antimalarial activities have recently been reported. However, there are relatively few examples of libraries of triazole-bridged flavonoid dimers and the diversity of flavonoid subunits present within these is typically limited. Thus, this compound type arguably remains underexplored within drug discovery. Herein, we report a modular strategy for the synthesis of novel and biologically interesting triazole-bridged flavonoid heterodimers and also very rare heterotrimers from readily available starting materials. Application of this strategy has enabled step-efficient and systematic access to a library of structurally diverse compounds of this sort, with a variety of monomer units belonging to six different structural subclasses of flavonoid successfully incorporated.
