Synthesis of a carborane-substituted bis(phosphanido) cobaltate(i), ligand substitution, and unusual P₄ fragmentation.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative addition of the P-P single bond of an ortho-carborane-derived 1,2-diphosphetane (1,2-C₂(PMes)₂B₁₀H₁₀) (Mes = 2,4,6-Me₃C₆H₂) to cobalt(-i) and nickel(0) sources affords the first heteroleptic complexes of a carborane-bridged bis(phosphanido) ligand. The complexes also incorporate labile ligands suitable for further functionalisation. Thus, the cobalt(i) complex [K([18]crown-6)][Co{1,2-(PMes)₂C₂B₁₀H₁₀}(cod)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) bearing a labile cyclooctadiene ligand undergoes facile ligand exchange reactions with isonitriles and tert-butyl phosphaalkyne with retention of the bis(phosphanido) ligand. However, in the reaction with one equivalent of P₄, the electron-rich bis(phosphanido) moiety abstracts a single phosphorus atom with formation of a new P₃ chain, while the remaining three P atoms derived from P₄ form an η³-coordinating cyclo-P₃ ligand. In contrast, when the same reaction is performed with two equivalents of the cobalt(i) complex, a dinuclear product is formed which features an unusual P₄ chain in its molecular structure.

Carborane clusters increase the potency of bis-substituted cyclam derivatives against <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>.

Project description:Bis-substituted cyclam derivatives have recently emerged as a promising new class of antibacterial agents, displaying excellent activity against drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and in vivo efficacy in a zebrafish assay. Herein we report the synthesis and biological activity of new carborane derivatives within this class of antitubercular compounds. The resulting carborane-cyclam conjugates incorporating either hydrophobic closo-1,2-carborane or anionic, hydrophilic nido-7,8-carborane clusters display promising activity in an antibacterial assay employing the virulent Mtb strain H37Rv. The most active of these carborane derivatives exhibit MIC50 values of <1 μM, making them the most active compounds in this unique class of antibacterial cyclams reported to date.

Bis(2-methyl-anilinium) diaqua-bis[dihydrogendiphosphato(2-)]cobaltate(II).

Project description:In the title cobalt(II) complex with 2-methyl-anilinium and diphosphate, (C(7)H(10)N)(2)[Co(H(2)P(2)O(7))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], a three-dimensional network is built up from anionic layers of [Co(H(2)P(2)O(7))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](2-) units and 2-methyl-anilinium cations located between these layers. The dihydrogendiphosphate groups present a bent eclipsed conformation, while the Co(2+) ions lie on inversion centers. An intricate network of O-H?O and N-H?O hydrogen bonds is established between the different components, assuring the cohesion of the network with other inter-actions, being of electrostatic and van der Waals nature.

Bis(triethyl-ammonium) tetra-chlorido-cobaltate(II).

Project description:The crystal structure of the title compound, (C(6)H(16)N)(2)[CoCl(4)], is comprised of a tetrahedral [CoCl(4)](2-) anion and two independent triethyl-ammonium cations. The latter are featureless while the [CoCl(4)](2-) anion exhibits typical Co-Cl bond lengths [2.2428?(15)-2.2847?(16)?Å] and a Cl-Co-Cl angular range of 107.58?(6)-112.73?(7)°. In the crystal, N-H?Cl hydrogen bonds between the two crystallographically independent cations and the [CoCl(4)](2-) anion generate discrete ion triplets. The two Co-Cl bonds involved in these inter-actions are slightly longer than the remaining two.

Synthesis and Unusual Reactivity of Acyl-Substituted 1,4-Disilacyclohexa-2,5-dienes.

Project description:In continuation of our recent studies on group 14 rings with exocyclic silicon-carbon double bonds, we report here on the synthesis and reactivity of previously unknown acyl-substituted 1,4-disilacyclohexa-2,5-dienes. 1,1,4,4-Tetrakistrimethylsilyl-1,4-disilacyclohexa-2,5-diene 1 cleanly afforded the silyl anion 1-K after addition of 1 equiv of KO t Bu. 1-K subsequently could be reacted with various electrophiles to the expected substitution products including compounds 4 and 5. When photolyzed with λ > 300 nm radiation, 4 and 5 undergo Brook-type 1,3-Si → O migration reactions to generate the corresponding 1,4-disilacyclohexadienes with exocyclic Si=C bonds as the primary products. These metastable silenes only could be characterized in form of appropriate quenching products. The reaction of compound 4 with KO t Bu followed by the addition of 1 equiv of PhMe2SiCl surprisingly gave the silylated 1,4-disilanorbornadiene cages 8 and 9 instead of the expected exocyclic silene. The responsible sila-Peterson-type mechanism could be elucidated by density functional theory calculations at the conductor-like polarizable continuum model (THF) B3LYP-GD3/6-31 + G(d) level and by the isolation and characterization of unstable intermediate products after proper derivatization.

Changing the Reactivity of Zero- and Mono-Valent Germanium with a Redox Non-Innocent Bis(silylenyl)carborane Ligand.

Project description:Using the chelating C,C'-bis(silylenyl)-ortho-dicarborane ligand, 1,2-(RSi)2 -1,2-C2 B10 H10 [R=PhC(NtBu)2 ], leads to the monoatomic zero-valent Ge complex ("germylone") 3. The redox non-innocent character of the carborane scaffold has a drastic influence on the reactivity of 3 towards reductants and oxidants. Reduction of 3 with one molar equivalent of potassium naphthalenide (KC10 H8 ) causes facile oxidation of Ge0 to GeI along with a two-electron reduction of the C2 B10 cluster core and subsequent GeI -GeI coupling to form the dianionic bis(silylene)-supported Ge2 complex 4. In contrast, oxidation of 3 with one molar equivalent of [Cp2 Fe][B{C6 H3 (CF3 )2 }4 ] as a one-electron oxidant furnishes the dicationic bis(silylene)-supported Ge2 complex 5. The Ge0 atom in 3 acts as donor towards GeCl2 to form the trinuclear mixed-valent Ge0 →GeII ←Ge0 complex 6, from which dechlorination with KC10 H8 affords the neutral Ge2 complex 7 as a diradical species.

Design, synthesis, and antiprotozoal evaluation of new 2,4-bis[(substituted-aminomethyl)phenyl]quinoline, 1,3-bis[(substituted-aminomethyl)phenyl]isoquinoline and 2,4-bis[(substituted-aminomethyl)phenyl]quinazoline derivatives.

Project description:A series of new 2,4-bis[(substituted-aminomethyl)phenyl]quinoline, 1,3-bis[(substituted-aminomethyl)phenyl]isoquinoline, and 2,4-bis[(substituted-aminomethyl)phenyl]quinazoline derivatives was designed, synthesised, and evaluated in vitro against three protozoan parasites (Plasmodium falciparum, Leishmania donovani, and Trypanosoma brucei brucei). Biological results showed antiprotozoal activity with IC50 values in the µM range. In addition, the in vitro cytotoxicity of these original molecules was assessed with human HepG2 cells. The quinoline 1c was identified as the most potent antimalarial candidate with a ratio of cytotoxic to antiparasitic activities of 97 against the P. falciparum CQ-sensitive strain 3D7. The quinazoline 3h was also identified as the most potent trypanosomal candidate with a selectivity index (SI) of 43 on T. brucei brucei strain. Moreover, as the telomeres of the parasites P. falciparum and Trypanosoma are possible targets of this kind of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds, we have also investigated stabilisation of the Plasmodium and Trypanosoma telomeric G-quadruplexes by our best compounds through FRET melting assays.

Unusual double ligand holes as catalytic active sites in LiNiO<sub>2</sub>.

Project description:Designing efficient catalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is of importance for energy conversion devices. The anionic redox allows formation of O-O bonds and offers higher OER activity than the conventional metal sites. Here, we successfully prepare LiNiO2 with a dominant 3d8L configuration (L is a hole at O 2p) under high oxygen pressure, and achieve a double ligand holes 3d8L2 under OER since one electron removal occurs at O 2p orbitals for NiIII oxides. LiNiO2 exhibits super-efficient OER activity among LiMO2, RMO3 (M = transition metal, R = rare earth) and other unary 3d catalysts. Multiple in situ/operando spectroscopies reveal NiIII→NiIV transition together with Li-removal during OER. Our theory indicates that NiIV (3d8L2) leads to direct O-O coupling between lattice oxygen and *O intermediates accelerating the OER activity. These findings highlight a new way to design the lattice oxygen redox with enough ligand holes created in OER process.
