Phototriggered cytotoxic properties of tricarbonyl manganese(I) complexes bearing α-diimine ligands towards HepG2

Reaction between bromo tricarbonyl manganese(I) and N,N′-bis(phenyl)-1,4-diaza-1,3-butadiene ligands, bearing different electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups R?=?OCH3, Cl, and NO2 in the ortho- and para-positions on the p

Catalytic improvement of titanium complexes bearing bis(aminophenolate) in ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide and ε-caprolactone

This study synthesized and examined a series of titanium aminophenoxide complexes as catalysts for the ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide and ε-caprolactone. These Ti complexes are more active for LA than for CL. The interaction between coordinating

Design and application of diimine-based copper(i) complexes in photoredox catalysis

Structurally different bis(imino)copper(i) complexes were prepared in a highly modular manner and utilized as copper-based photocatalysts in the ATRA reactions of styrenes and alkyl halides. The new photocatalysts showed good catalytic activity and ensured efficient chemical transformations.

Synthesis, ir and nmr spectral correlations in some symmetrical diimines

A series of diimines have been synthesized by coupling of diamine with substituted benzaldehydes. The purities of these diimines were checked by their analytical and spectroscopic data. The spectral frequencies vCN (cm-1), NMR chemical shifts (v, ppm) of C-H and C=N of these diimines have been correlated with Hammett substituent constants, F and R parameters using single and multi-linear regression analysis. From the results of statistical analysis, the effect of substituents on the above spectral data has been studied.

Reaction time dependent formation of Pd(ii) and Pt(ii) complexes of bis(methyl)thiasalen podand

Thiasalen podand 9 having S2N2 donor set has been synthesized by the condensation of 2-methylthiobenzaldehyde with ethylenediamine. The reaction of the thiasalen podand ligand with Pd(ii) afforded two complexes depending on the reaction time. Shorter reaction time (5 min) afforded thioether complex 10; whereas with increase in reaction time (4 h) thioether-thiolate complex 11 was obtained via cleavage of one of the two S-C(Me) bonds of bis(methyl)thiasalen podand upon complexation. The reaction of 9 with Pt(ii) afforded only thiolate-thioether complex 12 independent of the reaction time. The cleavage of both the S-C(Me) bonds of bis(methyl)thiasalen to afford bisthiolate complexes has never been observed. The structures of thiasalen podands and all three complexes have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. All three complexes possess a square planar geometry around the metal centres. Weak van der Waals interactions through C-H...F interactions are present in all three complexes leading to the formation of supramolecular synthons and the supramolecular structures are stabilized by aromatic π...π interactions, which leads to the formation of 3D pseudo-double helical network packing. Under similar conditions bis(methyl)salen did not form any complexes with Pd(ii) and Pt(ii).

Chemosensor activity of 2-(anthracen-9-yl)-substituted imidazolidines and hexahydropyrimidines

A number of 2-(anthracen-9-yl)-substituted imidazolidines and hexahydropyrimidines were synthesized by reaction of N,N'-bis[aryl(hetaryl) methyl]ethylene-1,2-diamines and N,N'-bis[aryl(hetaryl)methyl]-propane-1,3- diamines with anthracene-9-carbaldehyde. The obtained compounds showed chemosensor activity toward Cd2+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ ions. Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2012.

Synthesis, spectroscopic studies and crystal structures of ReI(CO)3(NN)Cl complexes with N,Nae-bis(substituted benzylidene)ethane-1,2-diamine Schiff base ligands

Four new Re(I) tricarbonyl-diimine complexes were prepared by reaction of Re(CO)5Cl with N,Nae-bis(substituted benzylidene)ethane-1,2-diamine Schiff base ligands. These compounds were characterized by physico-chemical methods, and their crystal

Synthesis of novel tetrahydroimidazole derivatives and studies for their biological properties

Ethylenediamine was reacted with suitable aromatic aldehydes in order to prepare their respective diSchiff bases. These compounds were then reduced to give the corresponding tetrahydrodiSchiff bases, which were low melting in nature. Finally, these derivatives were condensed with different aromatic aldehydes to give the desired tetrahydroimidazoles. The structures of all these compounds were established on the basis of spectral data. These novel tetrahydroimidazoles showed promising anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. The compounds were also screened for their anti-bacterial property against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
