The microsomal metabolism of the organometallic derivatives of the group-IV elements, germanium, tin and lead.

ABSTRACT: The NADPH- and oxygen-dependent microsomal metabolism of the di-, tri- and tetra-ethyl-substituted derivatives of germanium, tin and lead was shown to give rise to ethylene as a major product and ethane as a minor product. These reactions were shown to be catalysed by the liver microsomal cytochrome P-450-dependent mono-oxygenase. Since formation of ethane and ethylene was differentially inhibited by anaerobiosis, the results suggest that at least a large portion of the ethane produced may be derived by a reductive mechanism. Triethyltin bromide in both the absence and presence of NADPH was shown to convert cytochrome P-450 into cytochrome P-420 and to affect the function of the mono-oxygenase in vitro. Tetraethyltin caused the NADPH- and time-dependent formation of cytochrome P-420, suggesting that tetraethyltin is converted into triethyltin salts in significant concentrations. The order of potency in formation of cytochrome P-420 was closely paralleled by the ability of the tin derivatives to induce microsomal lipid peroxidation in vitro.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Thermal Study of Divalent Germanium, Tin, and Lead Triazenides as Potential Vapor Deposition Precursors.

Project description:Only a few M-N bonded divalent group 14 precursors are available for vapor deposition, in particular for Ge and Pb. A majority of the reported precursors are dicoordinated with the Sn(II) amidinates, the only tetracoordinated examples. No Ge(II) and Pb(II) amidinates suitable for vapor deposition have been demonstrated. Herein, we present tetracoordinated Ge(II), Sn(II), and Pb(II) complexes bearing two sets of chelating 1,3-di-tert-butyltriazenide ligands. These compounds are thermally stable, sublime quantitatively between 60 and 75 °C (at 0.5 mbar), and show ideal single-step volatilization by thermogravimetric analysis.

Crystalline Germanium(I) and Tin(I) Centered Radical Anions.

Project description:An isostructural series of heavy Group 14 E(I) radical anions (Ge, Sn, Pb), stabilized by a bulky xanthene-based diamido ligand are reported. The radical anions were synthesised by the one-electron reduction of their corresponding E(II) precursor complexes with sodium naphthalenide in THF, yielding the radical anions as charge-separated sodium salts. The series of main group radicals have been comprehensively characterized by EPR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography and DFT analysis, which reveal that in all cases, the spin density of the unpaired electron almost exclusively resides in a p-orbital of π symmetry located on the Group 14 center.

Germanium-lead perovskite light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Reducing environmental impact is a key challenge for perovskite optoelectronics, as most high-performance devices are based on potentially toxic lead-halide perovskites. For photovoltaic solar cells, tin-lead (Sn-Pb) perovskite materials provide a promising solution for reducing toxicity. However, Sn-Pb perovskites typically exhibit low luminescence efficiencies, and are not ideal for light-emitting applications. Here we demonstrate highly luminescent germanium-lead (Ge-Pb) perovskite films with photoluminescence quantum efficiencies (PLQEs) of up to ~71%, showing a considerable relative improvement of ~34% over similarly prepared Ge-free, Pb-based perovskite films. In our initial demonstration of Ge-Pb perovskite LEDs, we achieve external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of up to ~13.1% at high brightness (~1900 cd m-2), a step forward for reduced-toxicity perovskite LEDs. Our findings offer a new solution for developing eco-friendly light-emitting technologies based on perovskite semiconductors.

A Stable Homoleptic Organometallic Iron(IV) Complex.

Project description:A homoleptic organometallic FeIV complex that is stable in both solution and in the solid state at ambient conditions has been synthesized and isolated as [Fe(phtmeimb)2 ](PF6 )2 (phtmeimb=[phenyl(tris(3-methylimidazolin-2-ylidene))borate]- ). This FeIV N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex was characterized by 1 H NMR, HR-MS, elemental analysis, scXRD analysis, electrochemistry, Mößbauer spectroscopy, and magnetic susceptibility. The two latter techniques unequivocally demonstrate that [Fe(phtmeimb)2 ](PF6 )2 is a triplet FeIV low-spin S=1 complex in the ground state, in agreement with quantum chemical calculations. The electronic absorption spectrum of [Fe(phtmeimb)2 ](PF6 )2 in acetonitrile shows an intense absorption band in the red and near IR, due to LMCT (ligand-to-metal charge transfer) excitation. For the first time the excited state dynamics of a FeIV complex was studied and revealed a ≈0.8 ps lifetime of the 3 LMCT excited state of [Fe(phtmeimb)2 ](PF6 )2 in acetonitrile.

A Structurally Characterized Organometallic Plutonium(IV) Complex.

Project description:The blood-red plutonocene complex Pu(1,3-COT'')(1,4-COT'') (4; COT''=η8 -bis(trimethylsilyl)cyclooctatetraenyl) has been synthesized by oxidation of the anionic sandwich complex Li[Pu(1,4-COT'')2 ] (3) with anhydrous cobalt(II) chloride. The first crystal structure determination of an organoplutonium(IV) complex revealed an asymmetric sandwich structure for 4 where one COT'' ring is 1,3-substituted while the other retains the original 1,4-substitution pattern. The electronic structure of 4 has been elucidated by a computational study, revealing a probable cause for the unexpected silyl group migration.

Zwitterionic and biradicaloid heteroatomic cyclopentane derivatives containing different group 15 elements.

Project description:The formal cyclopentane-1,3-diyl derivatives [E1(?-NTer)2({E2C} = NDmp)] (Ter = 2,6-dimesityl-phenyl, Dmp = 2,6-dimethylphenyl) were prepared by 1,1-insertion of CNDmp into the N-E2 bond of [E1(?-NTer)2E2] (E1 = N, P; E2 = P, As). The insertion does not occur for E1 = E2 = As or E2 = Sb. Dependent on the choice of formal radical centres E, either a biradicaloid or a zwitterion was obtained. The biradicaloid features a P and an As radical center and its biradical character was established by computations as well as characteristic reactivity with respect to the formation of a housane derivative and the activation of molecules bearing multiple bonds, which was demonstrated using the example of PC t Bu. In contrast, the formally N,As- and N,P-centered biradicaloids are better regarded as zwitterionic species in accord with computations and diminished reactivity, as neither housane formation nor activation of multiple bonds could be observed.

Wide-spectrum polarization-sensitive and fast-response photodetector based on 2D group IV-VI semiconductor tin selenide.

Project description:Tin selenide (SnSe) has attracted considerable interest recently on account of its low-symmetry lattice structure, great compatibility with key semiconductor technology, and remarkable electrical and optical performance. SnSe-based polarization-sensitive photodetectors show promising application prospects because of their fast response and excellent photoelectric performance. Here, an in-plane anisotropic SnSe nanosheet was synthesized and reported in detail by applying angle-resolved polarized Raman spectroscopy (ARPRS), polarization-resolved optical microscopy(PROM), angle-resolved optical absorption spectroscopy (AROAS), and other crystal structure characterization methods. Moreover, SnSe crystals exhibit superior polarization detection performance with a high anisotropic photocurrent ratio (2.31 at 1064 nm) due to the structure formed by the Van der Waals superposition of covalently bonded atomic layers. Furthermore, SnSe-based photodetectors have high responsivity (9.27 A/W), high detectivity (4.08 × 1010 Jones), and fast response (in the order of nanoseconds). These results suggest a new method for fabricating 2D fast-response polarization-sensitive photodetectors in the future.

Exploring six-coordinate germanium(IV)-diketonate complexes as anticancer agents.

Project description:Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide and despite several attempts using chemotherapy to combat the deadly disease, toxic side effects and drug resistance temper efficacy [1]. Thus, drugs with potentially new mechanisms and lower toxicity to normal cells are needed. Metalloids such as arsenic compounds have been clinically beneficial in fighting cancer, but germanium is yet to gain such prominence [2,3]. We report the synthesis of four octahedral germanium(IV) complexes bearing acetylacetonato ligand, [GeIV(acac)3)]+, with different anions (3 - 6) using a streamlined synthetic approach. The compounds were structurally and electrochemically characterized using NMR, MS, X-ray crystallography, and cyclic voltammetry. The cyclic voltammogram of 3-5 revealed distinct irreversible peaks in the range of -0.9 to -1.9 V, corresponding to Ge(IV)/ Ge(II) or Ge(II)/Ge(0) couple in DMSO. We explored the anticancer activity of the complexes against a panel of cancer cell lines with IC50 values in the sub-micromolar range (9-15 μM). The compounds display ~3-fold selectivity in cancer cells over normal epithelial cells. In addition to the promising anticancer activity, the compounds display high complex stability in biological media, induces G1 arrest, reactive oxygen stress (ROS) accumulation, and mitochondria membrane depolarization in cancer cells. Furthermore, the compounds induce significant apoptosis.
