A Simple and Efficient Mechanochemical Route for the Synthesis of Salophen Ligands and of the Corresponding Zn, Ni, and Pd Complexes.

ABSTRACT: A number of salophen ligands and their Zn, Ni, and Pd complexes were synthesized by an efficient one-pot mechanosynthesis protocol. The reaction products were characterized by means of complementary solid-state techniques, i.e., powder X-ray diffraction, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Four new crystal structures of metal salophen complexes as DMSO solvates are here reported. The described simple and relatively fast (about 1 h for all derivatives) procedure is a good alternative to classical methods performed in organic solvents.

Pd(II) and Zn(II) based complexes with Schiff base ligands: synthesis, characterization, luminescence, and antibacterial and catalytic activities.

Project description:Two new metal complexes involving Schiff base ligands, namely, [Pd(L1)2] (1) and [Zn(L2)2] (2), [HL1: 2,4-dibromo-6-((E)-(mesitylimino)methyl)phenol and HL2: 2-((E)-(2,6-diisopropylphenylimino)methyl)-4,6-dibromophenol], have been solvothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both 1 and 2 are mononuclear cyclometalated complexes with square planar and tetrahedral coordination geometry, respectively. 1 and 2 display photoluminescence in the solid state at 298 K (fluorescence lifetimes ? = 5.521 ?s at 508 nm for 1; ? = 3.697 ?s at 506 nm for 2). These Schiff base ligands and their metal complexes have been screened for antibacterial activity against several bacteria strains, and the results are compared with the activity of penicillin. Moreover, the Suzuki reaction of 4-bromoanisole with phenylboronic acid by 1 has also been studied.

A trustworthy mechanochemical route to isocyanides.

Project description:Isocyanides are hardly produced, dramatically sensitive to purification processes, and complex to handle as synthetic tools. Notwithstanding, they represent one of the most refined and valuable compounds for accessing sophisticated and elegant synthetic routes. A unique interest has always been addressed to their production, though their synthetic pathways usually involve employing strong conditions and toxic reagents. The current paper intends to provide a conceptually innovative synthetic protocol for mechanochemical isocyanide preparation, simultaneously lowering the related reagents' toxicity and improving their purification in a straightforward procedure.

Electronic and magnetic properties of the [Ni(salophen)]: An experimental and DFT study.

Project description:The effect of the coordination of a Ni(II) ion on the electronic and magnetic properties of the ligand salophen were experimentally and theoretically evaluated. The complex [Ni(salophen)] was synthesized and characterized through FTIR and an elemental analysis. Spectral data obtained using DMSO as a solvent showed that the ligand absorption profile was significantly disturbed after the coordination of the metal atom. In addition to a redshift of the salophen ligand absorption bands, mainly composed by ? ? ?? electronic transitions, additional bands of around 470?nm were observed, resulting in a partial metal-to-ligand charge transfer. Furthermore, a significant increment of its band intensities was observed, favoring a more intense absorption in a broader range of the visible spectrum, which is a desired characteristic for applications in the field of organic electronics. This finding is related to an increment of the planarity and consequent electron delocalization of the macrocycle in the complex, which was estimated by the calculation of the current strengths at the PBE0/cc-pVTZ (Dyall.v3z for Ni(II)) level.

Zn and Ni complexes of pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ates: crystal field stabilization matters!

Project description:Six reaction products of ZnII and NiII with pyridine-2,6-di-carb-oxy-lic acid (H2Lig1), 4-chloro-pyridine-2,6-di-carb-oxy-lic acid (H2Lig2) and 4-hy-droxy-pyridine-2,6-di-carb-oxy-lic acid (H2Lig3) are used to pinpoint the structural consequences of crystal field stabilization by an incomplete d shell. The pseudo-octa-hedral ZnII coordination sphere in bis-(6-carb-oxy-picolinato)zinc(II) trihydrate, [Zn(C7H4NO4)2]·3H2O or [Zn(HLig1)2]·3H2O, (1), is significantly less regular than that about NiII in the isostructural compound bis-(6-carb-oxy-picolinato)nickel(II) trihydrate, [Ni(C7H4NO4)2]·3H2O or [Ni(HLig1)2]·3H2O, (2). The ZnII complexes poly[(4-chloro-pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ato)zinc(II)], [Zn(C7H2ClNO4)] n or [Zn(Lig2)] n , (3), and poly[[(4-hy-droxy-pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ato)zinc(II)] monohydrate], {[Zn(C7H3NO5)]·H2O} n or {[Zn(Lig3)]·H2O} n , (4), represent two-dimensional coordination polymers with chelating and bridging pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ate ligands in which the coordination polyhedra about the central cations cannot be associated with any regular shape; their coordination environments range between trigonal-bipyramidal and square-pyramidal geometries. In contrast, the corresponding adducts of the diprotonated ligands to NiII, namely tri-aqua-(4-chloro-pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ato)nickel(II), [Ni(C7H2ClNO4)(H2O)3] or [NiLig2(OH2)3)], (5), and tri-aqua-(4-hy-droxy-pyridine-2,6-di-carboxyl-ato)nickel(II) 1.7-hydrate, [Ni(C7H3NO5)(H2O)3]·1.7H2O or [NiLig3(OH2)3)]·1.7H2O, (6), feature rather regular octa-hedral coordination spheres about the transition-metal cations, thus precluding the formation of analogous extended structures.

Ni(I)-Alkyl Complexes Bearing Phenanthroline Ligands: Experimental Evidence for CO<sub>2</sub> Insertion at Ni(I) Centers.

Project description:Although the catalytic carboxylation of unactivated alkyl electrophiles has reached remarkable levels of sophistication, the intermediacy of (phenanthroline)Ni(I)-alkyl species-complexes proposed in numerous Ni-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reactions-has been subject to speculation. Herein we report the synthesis of such elusive (phenanthroline)Ni(I) species and their reactivity with CO2, allowing us to address a long-standing question related to Ni-catalyzed carboxylation reactions.

Mechanochemical route to the synthesis of nanostructured Aluminium nitride.

Project description:Hexagonal Aluminium nitride (h-AlN) is an important wide-bandgap semiconductor material which is conventionally fabricated by high temperature carbothermal reduction of alumina under toxic ammonia atmosphere. Here we report a simple, low cost and potentially scalable mechanochemical procedure for the green synthesis of nanostructured h-AlN from a powder mixture of Aluminium and melamine precursors. A combination of experimental and theoretical techniques has been employed to provide comprehensive mechanistic insights on the reactivity of melamine, solid state metal-organic interactions and the structural transformation of Al to h-AlN under non-equilibrium ball milling conditions. The results reveal that melamine is adsorbed through the amine groups on the Aluminium surface due to the long-range van der Waals forces. The high energy provided by milling leads to the deammoniation of melamine at the initial stages followed by the polymerization and formation of a carbon nitride network, by the decomposition of the amine groups and, finally, by the subsequent diffusion of nitrogen into the Aluminium structure to form h-AlN.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Catalytic Activity of Ni(II) Alkyl Complexes Supported by Pyrrole-Diphosphine Ligands.

Project description:The organometallic Ni(II) chemistry of the pyrrole-based pincer ligands, (P2RPyr)- (P2RPyr = 2,5-(R2PCH2)2C4H2N, R = Ph or Cy) is reported. Reactions of Grignard reagents with [NiCl(P2R Pyr)] afford a variety of alkyl and aryl complexes (methyl, ethyl, benzyl, phenyl, and allyl) that all display square planar geometries about nickel. The hydride complex, [NiH(P2CyPyr)], can also prepared either through treatment of [NiCl(P2CyPyr)] with LiHBEt3, or by reaction of H(P2RPyr) with [Ni(COD)2] (COD = 1,4-cyclooctadiene). Reactions of the methyl and hydride complexes with CO and CO2, respectively, evince clean migratory insertion chemistry of the Ni-C and Ni-H bonds. Both the alkyl and chloride complexes are active catalysts for the Kumada coupling of aryl chlorides and aryl or alkyl Grignard reagents at room temperature. The solid-state structures of several of the complexes are reported.

Design and reactivity of Ni-complexes using pentadentate neutral-polypyridyl ligands: Possible mimics of NiSOD.

Project description:Superoxide plays a key role in cell signaling, but can be cytotoxic within cells unless well regulated by enzymes known as superoxide dismutases (SOD). Nickel superoxide dismutase (NiSOD) catalyzes the disproportion of the harmful superoxide radical into hydrogen peroxide and dioxygen. NiSOD has a unique active site structure that plays an important role in tuning the potential of the nickel center to function as an effective catalyst for superoxide dismutation with diffusion controlled rates. The synthesis of structural and functional analogues of NiSOD provides a route to better understand the role of the nickel active site in superoxide dismutation. In this work, the synthesis of a series of nickel complexes supported by nitrogen rich pentadentate ligands is reported. The complexes have been characterized through absorption spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. X-ray absorption spectroscopy was employed to establish the oxidation state and the coordination geometry around the metal center. The reactivity of these complexes toward KO2 was evaluated to elucidate the role of the coordination sphere in controlling superoxide dismutation reactivity.

Ni(II) Complexes with Schiff Base Ligands: Preparation, Characterization, DNA/Protein Interaction and Cytotoxicity Studies.

Project description:In this study, two Ni(II) complexes, namely [Ni(HL1)?(OAc)?] (1) and [Ni(L2)?] (2) (where HL1 and HL2 are (E)-1-((1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-ylimino)methyl)-naphthalen-2-ol) and (E)-ethyl-5-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methyleneamino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate, respectively), were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS), elemental analysis, and IR. Their uptake in biological macromolecules and cancer cells were preliminarily investigated through electronic absorption (UV-Vis), circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence quenching measurements. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) interaction experiments were investigated by spectroscopy which showed that the complexes and ligands could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA through an obvious static quenching process. The spectroscopic studies indicated that these complexes could bind to DNA via groove, non-covalent, and electrostatic interactions. Furthermore, in vitro methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assays and Annexin V/PI flow cytometry experiments were performed to assess the antitumor capacity of the complexes against eight cell lines. The results show that both of the complexes possess reasonable cytotoxicities.

Nanomolar pyrophosphate detection and nucleus staining in living cells with simple terpyridine-Zn(II) complexes.

Project description:Great efforts have been made to develop fluorescent probes for pyrophosphate (PPi) detection. Nucleus staining with fluorescence microscopy has been also widely investigated. But fluorescent probes for PPi detection with high sensitivity in water medium and nucleus staining with low-cost non-precious metal complexes in living cells are still challenging. Herein, we report simple terpyridine-Zn(II) complexes for selective nanomolar PPi detection over ATP and ADP in water based on aggregation induced emission (AIE) and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). In addition, these terpyridine-Zn(II) complexes were successfully employed for nucleus staining in living cells. These results demonstrated simply obtained terpyridine-Zn(II) complexes are powerful tool for PPi detection and the development of PPi-related studies.
