ABSTRACT
Several molecular cobalt(ii) complexes, one Co(ii) coordination polymer and one ionic cobalt(iii) complex with imine hemisalen ligands were synthesized. The hemisalen ligands were synthesized from o-vanillin (oVP) and diverse aminopyridines (compounds HL1-HL4) or aminophenol (compound HL5). It was observed that cobalt(ii) chloride in dry acetonitrile catalyzes a transformation of HL1 and HL3 instead of complex formation. The conversion of these imines proceeded via self-cyclization to N-2''-pyridyl-2,6-dioxo-9-aza-[c,g]di-2'-methoxybenzo nonan or its methyl derivative as the major product. The remaining reactions were performed using imines HL1-HL5 and cobalt(ii) acetate Co(Ac)2 in methanol or DMSO/acetonitrile resulting in forming a series of cobalt complexes. The following series of compounds was obtained two similar tetrahedral molecular Co(ii) complexes [Co(L1)2] and [Co(L3)2], one trinuclear, mixed-ligand Co3(Ac)2(L4)2(oVP)2, one coordination polymer {Co(L2)2}∞ and finally one octahedral anionic Co(iii) complex [HNEt3][Co(L5)3]. The latter complex formed in a cobalt(ii) acetate reaction with a hemisalen HL5 derived from oVP and 2-aminophenol. The molecular structures of all compounds were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, and the cytotoxicity of Co(ii) and Co(iii) complexes towards cancer cell lines HCT116, HL-60 and normal cell line MRC-5 was studied.
