A Flexible Synthetic Strategy for the Preparation of Heteroleptic Metallacycles of Porphyrins.

ABSTRACT: We present a stepwise synthetic strategy for the preparation of the unprecedented heteroleptic 2+2 neutral metallacycle [{t,c,c-RuCl₂(CO)₂}₂(4'cisDPyP)(3'cisDPyP)] (5), in which two different 5,10-meso-dipyridylporphyrins, 4'cisDPyP [i.e., 5,10-bis(4'-pyridyl)-15,20-diphenylporphyrin] and 3'cisDPyP [i.e., 5,10-bis(3'-pyridyl)-15,20-diphenylporphyrin], are joined through equal 90°-angular Ru(II) connectors. The synthesis of 5 was accomplished through the preparation of a reactive ditopic intermediate in which one of the two pyridylporphyrins is linked to two neutral ruthenium fragments, each having one residual readily available coordination site (a dmso-O). Thus, compound 5 was obtained under mild conditions through two complementary routes: either by treatment of [{t,c,c-RuCl₂(CO)₂(dmso-O)}₂(4'cisDPyP)] (3) with 1 equiv of 3'cisDPyP or, alternatively, by treatment of [{t,c,c-RuCl₂(CO)₂(dmso-O)}₂(3'cisDPyP)] (4) with 1 equiv of 4'cisDPyP. Heteroleptic metallacycle 5 was isolated in pure form in acceptable yield and fully characterized. Spectroscopic data and a molecular model show that 5 has an L-shaped geometry, with the two porphyrins almost orthogonal to one another. The modular approach that we established is highly flexible and opens the way to several possible exciting developments.

Metal-Mediated Base Pairing of Rigid and Flexible Benzaldoxime Metallacycles.

Project description:Oligonucleotides incorporating a central C-nucleoside with either a rigid or flexible benzaldoxime base moiety have been synthesized, and the hybridization properties of their metallacyclic derivatives have been studied by UV melting experiments. In all cases, the metallated duplexes were less stable than their unmetallated counterparts, and the metallacyclic nucleobases did not show a clear preference for any of the canonical nucleobases as a base-pairing partner. With palladated oligonucleotides, increased flexibility translated to less severe destabilization, whereas the opposite was true for the mercurated oligonucleotides; this reflects the greater difficulties in accommodating a rigid PdII -mediated base pair than a rigid HgII -mediated base pair within the base stack of a double helix.

Preparation of NIR absorbing axial substituted tin(iv) porphyrins and their photocytotoxic properties.

Project description:Sn(iv) porphyrins ([Sn(iv)TTP(3PyO)2] (5) and [Sn(iv)TPP(3PyO)2] (6) [tetrathienylporphyrin (TTP), tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP), and pyridyloxy (PyO)]) were prepared and characterized and their photocytotoxicity upon irradiation with 625 nm light has been studied. The presence of the 3PyO axial ligands was found to limit the aggregation and enhance the solubility of 5 and 6 in DMF/H2O (1 : 1). The photophysical properties and photodynamic therapy (PDT) activity of the meso-2-thienyl and meso-phenyl-substituted Sn(iv) porphyrins are compared. 5 and 6 were found to be photocytotoxic in MCF-7 cancer cells when irradiated with a Thorlabs M625L3 LED at 625 nm but remained nontoxic in the dark. The PDT activity of Sn(iv) meso-tetra-2-thienylporphyrin 5 was found to be significantly enhanced relative to its analogous tetraphenylporphyrin 6. There is a marked red-shift of the Q00 band of 5 into the therapeutic window due to the meso-2-thienyl rings, and 5 has an unusually high singlet oxygen quantum yield value of 0.83 in DMF. The results demonstrate that readily synthesized axially ligated Sn(iv) meso-arylporphyrins are potentially suitable for use as singlet oxygen photosensitizers in biomedical applications and merit further in depth investigation in this context.

Strategy for the stereochemical assignment of tris-heteroleptic Ru(II) complexes by NMR spectroscopy.

Project description:The relative stereochemistry of tris-heteroleptic ruthenium complexes [Ru(pp)(pp')(pp'')](PF(6))(2), where pp = 1,10-phenanthroline-4-carboxamide, pp' = 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, and pp'' = 7,8-dimethyl dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine, was studied using NMR spectroscopy. The (1)H and (13)C spectra were assigned by using double-quantum-filtered correlation spectroscopy (DQF-COSY), heteronuclear single-quantum correlation (HSQC), and heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation (HMBC) experiments for the two diastereomers, each a pair of enantiomers. Nuclear Overhauser effect contacts between the neighboring ligands differentiated the two halves of each symmetrical ligand, thus enabling a full assignment of the NMR signals and an accurate determination of the relative stereochemistry of the complexes. The introduction of an additional chiral center to ligand pp by coupling it with L-lysine caused removal of the enantiomerism. Thus, four diastereomers were observed and their relative stereochemistry determined.

Nitrenium ion azaspirocyclization-spirodienone cleavage: a new synthetic strategy for the stereocontrolled preparation of highly substituted lactams and N-hydroxy lactams.

Project description:[reaction: see text] Although 1,4-cyclohexadienes 2, obtained through the Birch reduction of arenes 1, have found widespread use as masked beta-oxo carbonyl synthons 3, the possibility that 2,5-cyclohexadienones 5 might also be employed to the same end has been overlooked despite their ready availability. As part of our ongoing investigation of the synthetic chemistry of nitrenium ions, we have developed a novel and efficient strategy for the stereoselective preparation of di- and trisubstituted azetidinone, pyrrolidinone, and piperidinone derivatives, which features the ozonolytic cleavage of azaspirocyclic 2,5-cyclohexadienones 12. For example, ozonolysis of spirodienone 12c in CH2Cl2 and reductive workup with dimethyl sulfide generated unstable beta-formyl ester 21, whereas cleavage in MeOH followed by reduction with thiourea led to hemiacetal 22. While both 21 and 22 partially decompose upon exposure to silica gel, they can be trapped in situ, with a variety of weakly basic nucleophiles, to usefully substituted products. The requisite spirodienone substrates are readily accessible through the nitrenium ion cyclization of alkyl omega-arylhydroxamates 10, which proceeds with moderate to high diastereoselectivity.

Heteroleptic copper switches.

Project description:Heteroleptic copper compounds have been designed and synthesized on solid supports. Chemical redox agents were used to change the oxidation state of the SiO(2)-immobilized heteroleptic copper compounds from Cu(I) to Cu(II) and then back to Cu(I). Optical spectroscopy of a dimethyl sulfoxide suspension demonstrated the reversibility of the Cu(I)/Cu(II) SiO(2)-immobilized compounds by monitoring the metal-to-ligand charge transfer peak at about 450 nm. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to monitor the isomerization of Cu(I) tetrahedral to Cu(II) square planar. This conformational change corresponds to a 90° rotation of one ligand with respect to the other. Conductive atomic force microscopy and macroscopic gold electrodes were used to study the electrical properties of a p(+) Si-immobilized heteroleptic copper compound where switching between the Cu(I)/Cu(II) states occurred at -0.8 and +2.3 V.

Carbon-rich supramolecular metallacycles and metallacages.

Project description:Coordination-driven self-assembly via the directional-bonding approach utilizes rigid transition metal acceptors and electron-rich donors to allow for complex, nanoscale 2D polygons and 3D polyhedra to be prepared under mild conditions and in high yields. To ensure proper rigidity and directionality, many acceptor and donor precursors contain largely carbon-rich aromatic and/or acetylenic moieties. This article introduces self-assembly as an alternative means of synthesizing carbon-rich materials and discusses the development, design, synthesis, and applications of carbon-rich supramolecular metallacycles and metallacages as well as the self-assembly of new diastereomeric carbon-rich supramolecular triangles.

Temperature-Responsive Fluorescent Organoplatinum(II) Metallacycles.

Project description:The synthesis, characterization, and temperature-responsive properties of two fluorescent organoplatinum(II) metallacycles are reported. Metallacycles M1 and M2 were prepared via the coordination-driven self-assembly of a 120° triarylamine ligand L1 and a 120° diplatinum(II) acceptor Pt-1 or 180° diplatinum(II) acceptor Pt-2, respectively. M1 and M2 are hexagonal metallacycles, comprising of three or six freely rotating anthracene pendants on their periphery, respectively. In response to the temperature variation between -20 and 60 °C, the ligand displays irregular emission changes, whereas both metallacycles show reversible absorption and emission spectral changes in THF. The changes in their green emission intensity also exhibit a linear correlation with the temperature variation, with an average sensitivity of -0.67% and -0.77% per °C for M1 and M2, respectively. Furthermore, in coordinating solvents, such as DMF and CH3CN, M1 and M2 show different behaviors: in the lower temperature range, i.e., below 30 °C, their spectral changes are similar to those observed in THF; however, at a higher temperature the metallacycles were presumably destroyed by the solvents and displayed ratiometric fluorescent responses, including a cyan emission of the ligand L1.

Preparation and Synthetic Application of Naproxen-Containing Diaryliodonium Salts.

Project description:The synthesis of naproxen-containing diaryliodonium salts has been realized from naproxen methyl ester and ArI(OH)OTs activated by trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMSOTf) in a solvent mixture comprising dichloromethane and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE). Those iodonium salts have been successfully used in the functionalization of an aromatic ring of naproxen methyl ester, including fluorination, iodination, alkynylation, arylation, thiophenolation, and amination and esterification reactions. Moreover, further hydrolysis of the obtained 5-iodo-naproxen methyl ester afforded 5-iodo-naproxen.

Synthetic strategy toward ineleganolide: A cautionary tale.

Project description:We present a case study to demonstrate how complex molecule synthesis can benefit from quantum mechanics (QM) calculations. Theory is applied in two contexts: testing the chemical intuition used in retrosynthetic planning, along with expediting the resolution of unexpected challenges encountered during the course of the synthesis. From a computational lens, we examine retrospectively the strategies employed and the decisions made during our synthetic efforts toward the diterpenoid natural product ineleganolide. Seemingly logical and robust hypotheses are found to be ill-fated after theoretical investigation. Prior knowledge of these issues may have potentially saved valuable time and resources during our synthetic efforts. This cautionary tale suggests that synthetic campaigns can benefit from computational evaluation of synthetic plans.

Strategy revealing phenotypic differences among synthetic oscillator designs.

Project description:Considerable progress has been made in identifying and characterizing the component parts of genetic oscillators, which play central roles in all organisms. Nonlinear interaction among components is sufficiently complex that mathematical models are required to elucidate their elusive integrated behavior. Although natural and synthetic oscillators exhibit common architectures, there are numerous differences that are poorly understood. Utilizing synthetic biology to uncover basic principles of simpler circuits is a way to advance understanding of natural circadian clocks and rhythms. Following this strategy, we address the following questions: What are the implications of different architectures and molecular modes of transcriptional control for the phenotypic repertoire of genetic oscillators? Are there designs that are more realizable or robust? We compare synthetic oscillators involving one of three architectures and various combinations of the two modes of transcriptional control using a methodology that provides three innovations: a rigorous definition of phenotype, a procedure for deconstructing complex systems into qualitatively distinct phenotypes, and a graphical representation for illuminating the relationship between genotype, environment, and the qualitatively distinct phenotypes of a system. These methods provide a global perspective on the behavioral repertoire, facilitate comparisons of alternatives, and assist the rational design of synthetic gene circuitry. In particular, the results of their application here reveal distinctive phenotypes for several designs that have been studied experimentally as well as a best design among the alternatives that has yet to be constructed and tested.
