Nickel(II) Complex of N₄ Schiff Base Ligand as a Building Block for a Conducting Metallopolymer with Multiple Redox States.

ABSTRACT: Metal-ligand interactions in monomeric and polymeric transition metal complexes of Schiff base ligands largely define their functional properties and perspective applications. In this study, redox behavior of a nickel(II) N₄‑anilinosalen complex, [NiAmben] (where H₂Amben = N,N'-bis(o-aminobenzylidene)ethylenediamine) was studied by cyclic voltammetry in solvents of different Lewis basicity. A poly‑[NiAmben] film electrochemically synthesized from a 1,2‑dichloroethane-based electrolyte was investigated by a combination of cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance, in situ UV‑Vis spectroelectrochemistry, and in situ conductance measurements between -0.9 and 1.3 V vs. Ag/Ag⁺. The polymer displayed multistep redox processes involving reversible transfer of the total of ca. 1.6 electrons per repeat unit, electrical conductivity over a wide potential range, and multiple color changes in correlation with electrochemical processes. Performance advantages of poly‑[NiAmben] over its nickel(II) N₂O₂ Schiff base analogue were identified and related to the increased number of accessible redox states in the polymer due to the higher extent of electronic communication between metal ions and ligand segments in the nickel(II) N₄‑anilinosalen system. The obtained results suggest that electrosynthesized poly‑[NiAmben] films may be viable candidates for energy storage and saving applications.

Nickel(II)-Based Building Blocks with Schiff Base Derivatives: Experimental Insights and DFT Calculations.

Project description:We have recently reported a series of neutral square planar tridentate Schiff base (L) complexes of the general formula [(L)M(py)], showing relatively high first-order hyperpolarizabilities and NLO redox switching behavior. In the present study, new members of this family of compounds have been prepared with the objective to investigate their potential as building blocks in the on-demand construction of D-π-A push-pull systems. Namely, ternary nickel(II) building blocks of general formula [(LA/D)Ni(4-pyX)] (4-7), where LA/D stands for an electron accepting or donating dianionic O,N,O-tridentate Schiff base ligand resulting from the monocondensation of 2-aminophenol or its 4-substituted nitro derivative and β-diketones R-C(=O)CH2C(=O)CH3 (R = methyl, anisyl, ferrocenyl), and 4-pyX is 4-iodopyridine or 4-ethynylpyridine, were synthesized and isolated in 60-78% yields. Unexpectedly, the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction between the 4-iodopyridine derivative 6 and 4-ethynylpyridine led to the formation of the bis(4-pyridyl) acetylene bridged centrosymmetric dimer [{(LD)Ni}2(µ2-py-C≡C-py)] (8). Complexes 4-8 were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction and computational methods. In each compound, the four-coordinate Ni(II) metal ion adopts a square planar geometry with two nitrogen and two oxygen atoms as donors occupying trans positions. In 8, the Ni…Ni separation is of 13.62(14) Å. Experimental results were proved and explained theoretically exploiting Density Functional Theory calculations.

Iron(II) Spin Crossover Coordination Polymers Derived From a Redox Active Equatorial Tetrathiafulvalene Schiff-Base Ligand.

Project description:Two polymorphic FeII coordination polymers [FeIIL (TPPE)0.5] 1) and [(FeII 3L3 (TPPE)1.5)] 2), were obtained from a redox-active tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) functionalized ligand [H2L = 2,2'-(((2-(4,5-bis-(methylthio)-1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)benzo(d) (1,3) dithiole-5,6-diyl)bis-(azanediyl))bis-(meth anylylidene)) (2E,2E')-bis(3-oxobutanoate)] and a highly luminescent connector {TPPE = 1,1,2,2-tetrakis[4-(pyridine-4-yl)phenyl]-ethene}. Complex 1 has a layered structure where the TPPE uses its four diverging pyridines from the TPPE ligand are coordinated by the trans positions to the flat TTF Schiff-base ligand, and complex 2 has an unprecedented catenation of layers within two interpenetrated frameworks. These coordination polymers reserved the redox activity of the TTF unit. Complex 1 shows gradual spin transition behavior without hysteresis. And the fluorescence intensity of TPPE in 1 changes in tandem with the spin crossover (SCO) transition indicating a possible interplay between fluorescence and SCO behavior.

In vitro cytotoxicity activity of novel Schiff base ligand-lanthanide complexes.

Project description:A Schiff base ligand (SBL), N2, N3-bis (anthracen-9-ylmethylene) pyridine-2, 3-diamine, was synthesized through the condensation of 2,6-diaminopyridine and anthracene-9-carbaldehyde using a 1:2 ratio. 1H NMR spectra confirmed the observation of non-involvement aromatic carboxylic proton in SBL. A novel series of lanthanide (i.e., praseodymium (Pr), erbium (Er), and ytterbium (Yb))-based SBL metal complexes was successfully synthesized, and their functional groups were elaborately demonstrated using UV-visible, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and fluorescence spectroscopy analyses. FT-IR spectral studies revealed that SBL behaved as a bidentate ligand and it was structured with metal ions by the two azomethine nitrogens. The synthesized SBL-based metal complexes were elaborately performed for cytotoxicity activity versus Vero, human breast cancer (MCF7), and cervical (HeLa) anticancer cell lines.

Formation of a macrocycle from dichlorodimethylsilane and a pyridoxalimine Schiff base ligand

Project description:The reaction of dichlorodimethylsilane with a polydentate Schiff base ligand derived from pyridoxal and 2-ethanolamine yielded a macrocyclic silicon compound. The reaction of dichlorodimethylsilane with a polydentate Schiff base ligand derived from pyridoxal and 2-ethanolamine yielded the macrocyclic silicon compound (8E,22E)-4,4,12,18,18,26-hexamethyl-3,5,17,19-tetraoxa-8,13,22,27-tetraaza-4,18-disilatricyclo[22.4.0.010,15]octacosa-1(24),8,10,12,14,22,25,27-octaene-11,25-diol, C24H36N4O6Si2. The asymmetric unit contains the half macrocycle with an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond between the imine nitrogen atom and a neighbouring oxygen atom. The crystal structure is dominated by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π interactions, which form a high ordered molecular network.

Molecular docking and dynamics of Nickel-Schiff base complexes for inhibiting ?-lactamase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:In recent years, multidrug-resistance has become a primary concern in the treatment and management of tuberculosis, an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this context, searching new anti-tuberculosis agents particularly targeting the ?-lactamase (BlaC) is reported to be promising as this enzyme is one of the key player in the development of multidrug resistance. This study reports the design of some Nickel (Ni) based tetradentate N2O2 Schiff bases, employing density functional theory. All analogs are optimized at B3LYP/SDD level of theory. Dipole moment, electronic energy, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, HOMO-LUMO gap, and softness of these modified drugs are also investigated. Molecular interactions between designed ligands and BlaC have been analyzed by molecular docking approach, followed by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. All designed compounds show low HOMO-LUMO gap, while addition of halogen increases the dipole moment of the compounds. Docking and MD simulation investigations reveal that the designed compounds are more potent than standard inhibitor, where Ile117, Pro290, Arg236 and Thr253 residues of BlaC are found to play important role in the ligand binding. Through MD simulation study, the best binding compound is also observed to form stable complex by increasing the protein rigidness. The ADME/T analysis suggests that modified drugs are less toxic and shows an improved pharmacokinetic properties than that of the standard drug. These results further confirm the ability of Ni-directed Schiff bases to bind simultaneously to the active site of BlaC and support them as potential candidates for the future treatment of tuberculosis disease.

Evaluation of a chiral cubane-based Schiff base ligand in asymmetric catalysis reactions.

Project description:Recently, a novel chiral cubane-based Schiff base ligand was reported to yield modest enantioselectivity in the Henry reaction. To further explore the utility of this ligand in other asymmetric organic transformations, we evaluated its stereoselectivity in cyclopropanation and Michael addition reactions. Although there was no increase in stereocontrol, upon computational evaluation using both M06L and B3LYP calculations, it was revealed that a pseudo six-membered ring exists, through H-bonding of a cubyl hydrogen to the copper core. This decreases the steric bulk above the copper center and limits the asymmetric control with this ligand.

Mononuclear Nickel(II) Complexes with Schiff Base Ligands: Synthesis, Characterization, and Catalytic Activity in Norbornene Polymerization.

Project description:The nickel(II) catalyst has manifested higher catalytic activity compared to that of other late transition metal catalysts for norbornene polymerization. Therefore, several structurally similar trans-nickel(II) compounds of N,O-chelate bidentate ligands were synthesized and characterized. Both the electronic effect and the steric hindrance influence polymerization. The molecular structures of 2, 4 and 5 were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Base pairing, structural and functional insights into N4-methylcytidine (m4C) and N4,N4-dimethylcytidine (m42C) modified RNA.

Project description:The N4-methylation of cytidine (m4C and m42C) in RNA plays important roles in both bacterial and eukaryotic cells. In this work, we synthesized a series of m4C and m42C modified RNA oligonucleotides, conducted their base pairing and bioactivity studies, and solved three new crystal structures of the RNA duplexes containing these two modifications. Our thermostability and X-ray crystallography studies, together with the molecular dynamic simulation studies, demonstrated that m4C retains a regular C:G base pairing pattern in RNA duplex and has a relatively small effect on its base pairing stability and specificity. By contrast, the m42C modification disrupts the C:G pair and significantly decreases the duplex stability through a conformational shift of native Watson-Crick pair to a wobble-like pattern with the formation of two hydrogen bonds. This double-methylated m42C also results in the loss of base pairing discrimination between C:G and other mismatched pairs like C:A, C:T and C:C. The biochemical investigation of these two modified residues in the reverse transcription model shows that both mono- or di-methylated cytosine bases could specify the C:T pair and induce the G to T mutation using HIV-1 RT. In the presence of other reverse transcriptases with higher fidelity like AMV-RT, the methylation could either retain the normal nucleotide incorporation or completely inhibit the DNA synthesis. These results indicate the methylation at N4-position of cytidine is a molecular mechanism to fine tune base pairing specificity and affect the coding efficiency and fidelity during gene replication.

Physical properties, ligand substitution reactions, and biological activity of Co(iii)-Schiff base complexes.

Project description:Four cobalt(iii) complexes of the general formula [Co(Schiff base)(L)2]+, where L is ammonia (NH3) or 3-fluorobenzylamine (3F-BnNH2), were synthesized. The complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and X-ray crystallography. Their electrochemical properties, ligand substitution mechanisms, and ligand exchange rates in aqueous buffer were investigated. These physical properties were correlated to the cellular uptake and anticancer activities of the complexes. The complexes undergo sequential, dissociative ligand substitution, with the exchange rates depending heavily on the axial ligands. Eyring analyses revealed that the relative ligand exchange rates were largely impacted by differences in the entropy, rather than enthalpy, of activation for the complexes. Performing the substitution reactions in the presence of ascorbate led to a change in the reaction profile and kinetics, but no change in the final product. The cytotoxic activity of the complexes correlates with both the ligand exchange rate and reduction potential, with the more easily reduced and rapidly substituted complexes showing higher toxicity. These relationships may be valuable for the rational design of Co(iii) complexes as anticancer or antiviral prodrugs.

A new Schiff base nickel(II) complex: {5,5'-dihydr-oxy-2,2'-[o-phenyl-enebis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenolato}nickel(II) methanol disolvate.

Project description:The monomeric title nickel(II) complex of a salicylaldimine, [Ni(C(20)H(14)N(2)O(4))]·2CH(3)OH, was obtained by the reaction of 2,4-dihydroxy-benzaldehyde and 1,2-phenyl-enediamine with nickel(II) acetate. The Ni(II) atom is coordinated by two N atoms [Ni-N = 1.839?(2)?Å] and two O atoms [Ni-O = 1.8253?(19)?Å] in an approximately square-planar geometry. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular O-H?O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a chain along [001].
