- Effects of structural modifications on the metal binding, anti-amyloid activity, and cholinesterase inhibitory activity of chalcones
-
As the number of individuals affected with Alzheimer's disease (AD) increases and the availability of drugs for AD treatment remains limited, the need to develop effective therapeutics for AD becomes more and more pressing. Strategies currently pursued include inhibiting acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and targeting amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides and metal-Aβ complexes. This work presents the design, synthesis, and biochemical evaluation of a series of chalcones, and assesses the relationship between their structures and their ability to bind metal ions and/or Aβ species, and inhibit AChE/BChE activity. Several chalcones were found to exhibit potent disaggregation of pre-formed N-biotinyl Aβ1-42 (bioAβ42) aggregates in vitro in the absence and presence of Cu2+/Zn2+, while others were effective at inhibiting the action of AChE.

- A two-in-one pincer ligand and its diiron(II) complex showing spin state switching in solution through reversible ligand exchange
-
A novel pyrazolate-bridged ligand providing two {PNN} pincer-type compartments has been synthesized. Its diiron(II) complex LFe2(OTf)3(CH3CN) (1; Tf=triflate) features, in solid state, two bridging triflate ligands, with a terminal triflate and a MeCN ligand completing the octahedral coordination spheres of the two high-spin metalions. In MeCN solution, 1 is shown to undergo a sequential, reversible, and complete spin transition to the low-spin state upon cooling. Detailed UV/Vis and 19F NMR spectroscopic studies as well as magnetic measurements have unraveled that spin state switching correlates with a rapid multistep triflate/MeCN ligand exchange equilibrium. The spin transition temperature can be continuously tuned by varying the triflate concentration in solution.

- Zinc complexes bearing N,N′-bidentate entiopure ligands: Synthesis, structure and catalytic activity toward ring opening polymerisation of rac-lactide
-
Dichloro zinc complexes with (S)-1-phenyl-N-[(S)-1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl] ethanamine (PMMA) and (S)-1-(6-methylpyridin-2-yl)-N-[(S)-1-phenylethyl] ethanamine (MPMMA) were prepared and characterised by X-ray diffraction. The catalytic activity of the dimethyl complexes, generated in situ, was high in the ring opening polymerization of rac-lactide. Specifically, the dimethyl derivative of (PMMA)ZnCl2 yielded a highly stereocontrolled polylactide with Pr = 0.84.

- Lanthanide complexes of a new sterically hindered potentially hexadentate podand ligand based on a tris(pyrazolyl)borate core; crystal structures, solution structures and luminescence properties
-
The new podand ligand hydrotris[3-(6-methyl)pyridin-2-ylpyrazol-1-yl]borate [L1]- was prepared which contains three bidentate pyrazolyl/pyridine arms attached to a {BH}- head-group. This ligand differs from an earlier ligand hydrotris[3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazol-1-yl]borate [L2]- by the presence of methyl groups attached to the C6 positions of the pyridyl rings, which would interfere with each other sterically if the ligand co-ordinated in a fully hexadentate manner. Instead, crystallographic analysis of the complexes [M(L1)(NO3)2(H2O)] (M = Eu, Tb or Gd) showed that partial dissociation of the podand occurs to relieve this potential steric problem: either one or two of the pyridyl groups are not co-ordinated, such that [L1]- is penta- or tetra-dentate, but instead are involved in intramolecular N...H-O hydrogen-bonding interactions with the co-ordinated water molecule. The presence of both structural forms in single crystals of the gadolinium and europium complexes shows that interconversion between them in solution must be facile. Variable-temperature 1H NMR spectra of the diamagnetic lanthanum(III) analogue shows that, whereas all three ligand arms are equivalent on the NMR timescale at high temperatures, at -80°C there is mirror symmetry in the complex such that two arms are equivalent and the third is different from the other two; this is consistent with the crystalline form in which [L1]- is tetradentate with two pendant pyridyl arms, which has pseudo-mirror symmetry. Luminescence studies showed that whereas the ligand-based luminescence is retained in the gadolinium(III) complex, in the europium(III) and terbium(III) complexes the ligand-centred emission is quenched by ligand-to-metal energy transfer, resulting in the usual metal-centred emission spectra. The intensity of the emission from the europium(III) and terbium(III) complexes of [L1]- is substantially reduced compared to the emission from the analogous complexes [M(L2)(NO3)2] (M = Eu or Tb) which we ascribe to the sterically induced poorer co-ordination of the podand ligand, resulting in (i) less efficient ligand-to-metal energy transfer, and (ii) co-ordination of labile solvent molecules (H2O) to the metal centres.

- Chiral Pyridines: Optical Resolution of 1-(2-Pyridyl)- and 1-[6-(2,2′-Bipyridyl)]ethanols by Lipase-Catalyzed Enantioselective Acetylation
-
The resolution of racemic 1-(2-pyridyl)ethanols 2a-n, including the 2,2′-bipyridyl and isoquinolyl derivatives, by lipase-catalyzed asymmetric acetylation with vinyl acetate is reported. The reactions were carried out in diisopropyl ether at either room temperature or 60°C using Candida antarctica lipase (CAL) to give (R)-acetate and unreacted (S)-alcohol with excellent enantiomeric purities in good yields. The reaction rate was relatively slow at room temperature for substrates bearing an sp3-type carbon at the 6-position on the pyridine ring, such as 2c, 2d, and 2e, and for those bearing 1-hydroxypropyl and allyl groups at the 2-position on the pyridine ring, such as 21 and 2m. In such cases, a higher temperature was required. Thus, when the reaction was conducted at 60°C, it was accelerated 3- to 7-fold without losing the high enantiospecificity. However, the reaction of homoallylic alcohol 2n was not complete, even when the reaction was continued for a longer period of time at 60°C. This enzymatic resolution can be used practically in a wide range of reaction scales from 10 mg to 10 g or more. This catalyst can be used repeatedly with a 5-10% loss of the initial activity with each use.

- Steric control of directional isomerism in dicopper(I) helicates of asymmetrically substituted 2,2':6',2':2,6'-quaterpyridine derivatives
-
Derivatives of 2,2':6',2'':2'',6'''-quaterpyridine have been prepared which are asymmetrically substituted with alkyl groups in the 4- or 6- position and with various substituents in the 4'-position. These ligands form dicopper(I) double helicates which have been investigated by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic techniques. The formation of helical isomers is shown to depend on the intramolecular interactions between the constituent helicands of the double helicate; 4'-methyl substituents undergo steric interactions with the 4-substituent of the partner helicand, leading to a modest selectivity, although bulky 4-substituents decrease selectivity. In the absence of 4'-substituents, the smaller pitch permits steric interactions between like 4-substituents of the component helicands. In each case, formation of the head-to-head helicate isomer is preferred.
