Effects of Charged Ligand Substituents on the Properties of the Formally Copper(III)-Hydroxide ([CuOH]2+) Unit.

ABSTRACT: With the goal of understanding how distal charge influences the properties and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactivity of the [CuOH]2+ core proposed to be important in oxidation catalysis, the complexes [M]3[SO3LCuOH] (M = [K(18-crown-6)]+ or [K(crypt-222)]+) and [NMe3LCuOH]X (X = BArF4- or ClO4-) were prepared, in which SO3- or NMe3+ substituents occupy the para positions of the flanking aryl rings of the supporting bis(carboxamide)pyridine ligands. Structural and spectroscopic characterization showed that the [CuOH]+ cores in the corresponding complexes were similar, but cyclic voltammetry revealed the E1/2 value for the [CuOH]2+/[CuOH]+ couple to be nearly 0.3 V more oxidizing for the [NMe3LCuOH]2+ than the [SO3LCuOH]- species, with the latter influenced by interactions between the distal -SO3- substituents and K+ or Na+ counterions. Chemical oxidations of the complexes generated the corresponding [CuOH]2+ species as evinced by UV-vis spectroscopy. The rates of HAT reactions of these species with 9,10-dihydroanthracene to yield the corresponding [Cu(OH2)]2+ complexes and anthracene were measured, and the thermodynamics of the processes were evaluated via determination of the bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) of the product O-H bonds. The HAT rate for [SO3LCuOH]- was found to be ?150 times faster than that for [NMe3LCuOH]2+, despite finding approximately the same BDEs for the product O-H bonds. Rationales for these observations and new insights into the roles of supporting ligand attributes on the properties of the [CuOH]2+ unit are presented.

Project description:The three complexes [Fe(opo)3], [Cu(opo)2], and [Zn(opo)2] containing the non-innocent anionic ligand opo- (opo- = 9-oxido-phenalenone, Hopo = 9-hydroxyphenalonone) were synthesised from the corresponding acetylacetonates. [Zn(opo)2] was characterised using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, the paramagnetic [Fe(opo)3] and [Cu(opo)2] by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. While the EPR spectra of [Cu(opo)2] and [Cu(acac)2] in dimethylformamide (DMF) solution are very similar, a rather narrow spectrum was observed for [Fe(opo)3] in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution in contrast to the very broad spectrum of [Fe(acac)3] in THF (Hacac = acetylacetone, 2,4-pentanedione; acac- = acetylacetonate). The narrow, completely isotropic signal of [Fe(opo)3] disagrees with a metal-centred S = 5/2 spin system that is observed in the solid state. We assume spin-delocalisation to the opo ligand in the sense of an opo- to FeIII electron transfer. All compounds show several electrochemical opo-centred reduction waves in the range of -1 to -3 V vs. the ferrocene/ferrocenium couple. However, for CuII and FeIII the very first one-electron reductions are metal-centred. Electronic absorption in the UV to vis range are due to π-π* transitions in the opo core, giving Hopo and [Zn(opo)2] a yellow to orange colour. The structured bands ranging from 400 to 500 for all compounds are assigned to the lowest energy π-π* transitions. They show markedly higher intensities and slight shifts for the CuII (brown) and FeIII (red) complexes and we assume admixing metal contributions (MLCT for CuII, LMCT for FeIII). For both complexes long-wavelength absorptions assignable to d-d transitions were detected. Detailed spectroelectrochemical experiments confirm both the electrochemical and the optical assignments. Hopo and the complexes [Cu(opo)2], [Zn(opo)2], and [Fe(opo)3] show antiproliferative activities against HT-29 (colon cancer) and MCF-7 (breast cancer) cell lines in the range of a few µM, comparable to cisplatin under the same conditions.
