RESUMO
The synthesis of a storage-stable organosilicon modifier with a dioxaborolane-protecting group is described. Its high reactivity and selective anti-Markovnikov addition in hydrosilylation reactions to afford siloxanes of various structures are shown. The possibility of deprotection of both the initial modifier and its siloxane derivatives under mild conditions using water in yields up to 96% is demonstrated. The existence of an equilibrium between the organosilicon derivatives of phenylboronic acids and their cyclic six-membered boroxines was confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis data. The use of siloxane derivatives of phenylboronic acids in Suzuki-Miyaura and Chan-Lam cross-coupling reactions was studied. All synthesized compounds were characterized by NMR (1H, 11B, 13C, and 29Si), IR spectroscopy, and high-resolution mass spectrometry.

Amino-functionalized phosphoryl compounds are among the most useful molecular scaffolds in medicinal chemistry, while the potential of their thiophosphorylated analogs, especially those having an alkylamino moiety, is still uncovered. This is mainly due to the lack of convenient synthetic routes to these organophosphorus derivatives. To address this issue, we have suggested the facile approaches to α-(aminomethyl)- and substituted/unsubstituted α-(aminobenzyl)diphenylphosphine sulfides based on either the sequential transformations of (hydroxymethyl)diphenylphosphine sulfide, with the Staudinger reaction of an azide derivative as the key stage, or the addition of Ph2P(S)H to hydrobenzamides followed by the acid hydrolysis. The compounds obtained were reacted with picolinyl chloride to yield functionalized amides which readily underwent direct cyclopalladation, resulting in new representatives of non-classical N-metalated Pd(II) pincer complexes. The latter exhibit promising cytotoxic activity against several human cancer cell lines and apoptosis inducing ability along with the remarkable cytotoxic effects on doxorubicin-resistant cell sublines.
RESUMO
The reaction of aromatic ring-substituted isoselenocyanates with 2-thiopheacetic and 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid hydrazides yielded selenosemicarbazides which were further converted into previously unknown 1,2,4-triazole-3-selones and 3,3'-di(4H-1, 2,4-triazolyl)diselenides. The structures of the obtained compounds were studied by NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, and high-resolution mass spectroscopy (HR-MS). The bactericidal and fungicidal activity of some obtained compounds was evaluated in molecular modeling studies such as docking and simulation studies. The compound 3ba was reported as the most promising compound to show robust binding energy with different antibacterial and antifungal compounds. The compounds were observed in strong hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions and remained in stable binding conformation with the receptor enzymes. Furthermore, the interatomic interaction energies were dominated by Van der Waals and electrostatic energies indicating the formation of stable complexes.

Driven by the growing threat of cancer, many research efforts are directed at developing new chemotherapeutic agents, where the central role is played by transition metal complexes. The proper ligand design serves as a key factor to unlock the anticancer potential of a particular metal center. Following a recent trend, we have prepared unsymmetrical pincer ligands that combine benzothiazole and thiocarbamate donor groups. These compounds are shown to readily undergo direct cyclopalladation, affording the target S,C,N-type Pd(II) pincer complexes both in solution and in the absence of a solvent. The solid-phase strategy provided the complexes in an efficient and ecologically friendly manner. The resulting palladacycles are fully characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy and, in one case, by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). The solvent-free reactions are additionally analyzed by powder XRD. The pincer complexes exhibit remarkable cytotoxicity against several solid and blood cancer cell lines, including human colorectal carcinoma (HCT116), breast cancer (MCF7), prostate adenocarcinoma (PC3), chronic myelogenous leukemia (K562), multiple plasmacytoma (AMO1), and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (H9), with the dimethylamino-substituted derivative being particularly effective. The latter also induced an appreciable level of apoptosis in both parental and doxorubicin-resistant cells K562 and K562/iS9, vindicating the high anticancer potential of this type of palladacycles.

Parahydrogen-induced nuclear polarization offers a significant increase in the sensitivity of NMR spectroscopy to create new probes for medical diagnostics by magnetic resonance imaging. As precursors of the biocompatible hyperpolarized probes, unsaturated derivatives of phosphoric acid, propargyl and allyl phosphates, are proposed. The polarization transfer to 1H and 31P nuclei of the products of their hydrogenation by parahydrogen under the ALTADENA and PASADENA conditions, and by the PH-ECHO-INEPT+ pulse sequence of NMR spectroscopy, resulted in a very high signal amplification, which is among the largest for parahydrogen-induced nuclear polarization transfer to the 31P nucleus.

An efficient one-pot synthesis of carborane-containing high-energy compounds was developed via the exploration of carbon-halogen bond functionalization strategies in commercially available 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine. The synthetic pathway first included the substitution of two chlorine atoms in s-triazine with 5-R-tetrazoles (R = H, Me, Et) units to form disubstituted tetrazolyl 1,3,5-triazines followed by the sequential substitution of the remaining chlorine atom in 1,3,5-triazine with carborane N- or S-nucleophiles. All new compounds were characterized by IR- and NMR spectroscopy. The structure of four new compounds was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The density functional theory method (DFT B3LYP/6-311 + G*) was used to study the geometrical structures, enthalpies of formation (EOFs), energetic properties and highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO and LUMO) energies and the detonation properties of synthesized compounds. The DFT calculation revealed compounds processing the maximum value of the detonation velocity or the maximum value of the detonation pressure. Theoretical terahertz frequencies for potential high-energy density materials (HEDMs) were computed, which allow the opportunity for the remote detection of these compounds.
RESUMO
A practical method for the synthesis of 2-selenoxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-quinazolinone was reported. The latter compounds were found to undergo facile oxidation with H2O2 into corresponding diselenides. Novel organoselenium derivatives were characterized by the 1H, 77Se, and 13C NMR spectroscopies, high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, IR, elemental analyses (C, H, N), and X-ray diffraction analysis for several of them. Novel heterocycles exhibited multiple remarkable chalcogen bonding (ChB) interactions in the solid state, which were studied theoretically.

In the search for potential new metal-based antitumor agents, two series of nonclassical palladium(II) pincer complexes based on functionalized amides with S-modified cysteine and homocysteine residues have been prepared and fully characterized by 1D and 2D NMR (1H, 13C, COSY, HMQC or HSQC, 1H-13C, and 1H-15N HMBC) and IR spectroscopy and, in some cases, X-ray diffraction. Most of the resulting complexes exhibit a high level of cytotoxic activity against several human cancer cell lines, including colon (HCT116), breast (MCF7), and prostate (PC3) cancers. Some of the compounds under consideration are also efficient in both native and doxorubicin-resistant transformed breast cells HBL100, suggesting the prospects for the creation of therapeutic agents based on the related compounds that would be able to overcome drug resistance. An analysis of different aspects of their biological effects on living cells has revealed a remarkable ability of the S-modified derivatives to induce cell apoptosis and efficient cellular uptake of their fluorescein-conjugated counterpart, confirming the high anticancer potential of Pd(II) pincer complexes derived from functionalized amides with S-donor amino acid pendant arms.

This study presents the synthesis of organoboron derivatives of stereoregular 4-, 6-, and 12-unit phenylcyclosilsesquioxanes. All compounds obtained were isolated in good yields (70-80 %) and were fully characterized by 1 H, 13 C, 29 Si, 11 Bâ NMR, IR spectroscopy, HRMS ESI, and elemental microanalysis. The structure of the key modifier, obtained for the first time, 4-(tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl) dimethylvinylsilane, was also confirmed by single-crystal XRD.
RESUMO
The photochemical isomerization of a styrylpyridinium dye (SP) bearing an unsymmetrically attached benzo-15-crown-5 ether has been studied in aqueous solution in the absence and presence of cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]). The detailed analysis of the UV/Vis and NMR spectra showes that the isomeric composition of the photostationary mixtures of SP can be modulated by the host-guest complexation with CB[7]. It was found that steric hindrance caused by encapsulation of SP in the host cavity induces the exclusive formation of the anti conformer of Z-SP in contrast with the mixture of both anti and syn conformers obtained during photoisomerization of the dye without CB[7]. Remarkably, the displacement of anti Z-SP from CB[7] does not lead to the transformation of the anti Z-isomer into the syn Z-isomer pointing out the conformational memory of the system. The results provide an interesting example of the supramolecular stereorecognition by the achiral CB[7] host.
RESUMO
Here we report the Friedel-Crafts arylation of chlorofullerenes C60Cl6 and C70Cl8 with thiophene-based methyl esters. While C60Cl6 formed expected Cs-C60R5Cl products, C70Cl8 demonstrated a tendency for both substitution of chlorine atoms and addition of an extra thiophene unit, thus forming Cs-C70R8 and C1-C70R9H compounds. The synthesized water-soluble C60 and C70 fullerene derivatives with thiophene-based addends demonstrated high activity against a broad range of viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus, influenza virus, cytomegalovirus, and herpes simplex virus. The record activity of C70 fullerene derivatives against herpes simplex virus together with low toxicity in mice makes them promising candidates for the development of novel non-nucleoside antiherpetic drugs.

FulerenosRESUMO
Chiral copper(II) and cobalt(III) complexes (1-5 and 6, respectively) derived from Schiff bases of (S)-2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine and salicylaldehyde derivatives were employed in a mechanistic study of the Henry reaction-type condensation of nitromethane and o-nitrobenzaldehyde in CH2Cl2 (CD2Cl2), containing different amounts of water. The reaction kinetics was monitored by 1H and 13C NMR. The addition of water had a different influence on the activity of the two types of complexes, ranging from a crucial positive effect in the case of the copper(II) complex 2 to insignificant in the case of the stereochemically inert cobalt(III) complex 6. No experimental support was found by 1H NMR studies for the classical Lewis acid complexation of the carbonyl group of the aldehyde by the central copper(II) ion, and, moreover, density functional theory (DFT) calculations support the absence of such coordination. On the other hand, a very significant complexation was found for water, and it was supported by DFT calculations. In fact, we suggest that it is the Brønsted acidity of the water molecule coordinated to the metal ion that triggers the aldehyde activation. The rate-limiting step of the reaction was the removal of an α-proton from the nitromethane molecule, as supported by the observed kinetic isotope effect equaling 6.3 in the case of the copper complex 2. It was found by high-resolution mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization that the copper(II) complex 2 existed in CH2Cl2 in a dimeric form. The reaction had a second-order dependence on the catalyst concentration, which implicated two dimeric forms of the copper(II) complex 2 in the rate-limiting step. Furthermore, DFT calculations help to generate a plausible structure of the stereodetermining transition step of the condensation.
RESUMO
We report an "inversed" Arbuzov reaction of the fullerene derivatives C60Ar5Cl with trialkyl phosphites P(OR)3 producing alkylated fullerene derivatives C60Ar5R (R = Me, Et, iPr, nBu) with almost quantitative yields. This reaction provides a convenient synthetic route for the preparation of a large variety of functionalized fullerene derivatives with tailored properties, e.g. water-soluble compounds demonstrating promising antiviral activities against HCMV, HSV1, HIV and several influenza virus strains.
RESUMO
An efficient method for the CF3-carbenoid C-H functionalization of 6-arylpurines has been developed. This protocol uses readily available methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-diazopropionate as a cross-coupling partner and proceeds smoothly under chelation-controlled Rh(iii) catalysis. The reactions provide the corresponding carbene insertion products with high regioselectivity within a few hours and allow the introduction of both the CF3 and carboxylate functions into biologically important purine molecules including nucleoside derivatives.
RESUMO
The reactions of picolinyl and 4-chloropicolinyl chlorides with methyl esters of S-methyl-l-cysteine, l- and d-methionine, and l-histidine afforded a series of functionalized carboxamides, which readily formed pincer-type complexes upon interaction with PdCl2(NCPh)2 in solution under mild conditions. The direct cyclopalladation of the ligands derived was also accomplished in the solid phase, in particular, mechanochemically, although it was complicated by the partial deactivation of the starting amides. The resulting complexes with 5,5- and 5,6-membered fused metallocycles were fully characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy, including variable-temperature and 2D-NMR studies. In the case of some cysteine- and methionine-based derivatives, the realization of κ3-N,N,S-coordination was supported by X-ray diffraction. The cytotoxic effects of these complexes were examined on HCT116, MCF7, and PC3 human cancer cell lines as well as HEK293 as a representative of normal cells. The comparative studies allowed us to determine that the presence of the sulfide ancillary donor group is crucial for cytotoxic activity of this type of Pd(II) complexes. The main structure-activity relationships and the most promising palladocycles were outlined. The additional studies by gel electrophoresis revealed that 4-chloropicolinyl derivatives, despite the nature of an amino acid, can bind with DNA and inhibit topoisomerase I activity.
RESUMO
We report novel synthetic routes for facile preparation of highly functionalized fullerene derivatives C60(OR)5X (X = H, Cl, Br), C60(OR)4O and C60(OR)2 from chlorofullerene C60Cl6. The first water-soluble fullerene compound bearing residues of 3-oxypropanoic acid demonstrated a potent anti-HIV activity.
RESUMO
The cross-metathesis of polynorbornene and polyoctenamer in d-chloroform mediated by the 1(st) generation Grubbs' catalyst Cl2(PCy3)2Ru=CHPh is studied by monitoring the kinetics of carbene transformation and evolution of the dyad composition of polymer chains with in situ (1)H and ex situ (13)C NMR spectroscopy. The results are interpreted in terms of a simple kinetic two-stage model. At the first stage of the reaction all Ru-benzylidene carbenes are transformed into Ru-polyoctenamers within an hour, while the polymer molar mass is considerably decreased. The second stage actually including interpolymeric reactions proceeds much slower and takes one day or more to achieve a random copolymer of norbornene and cyclooctene. Its rate is limited by the interaction of polyoctenamer-bound carbenes with polynorbornene units, which is hampered, presumably due to steric reasons. Polynorbornene-bound carbenes are detected in very low concentrations throughout the whole process thus indicating their higher reactivity, as compared with the polyoctenamer-bound ones. Macroscopic homogeneity of the reacting media is proved by dynamic light scattering from solutions containing the polymer mixture and its components. In general, the studied process can be considered as a new way to unsaturated multiblock statistical copolymers. Their structure can be controlled by the amount of catalyst, mixture composition, and reaction time. It is remarkable that this goal can be achieved with a catalyst that is not suitable for ring-opening metathesis copolymerization of norbornene and cis-cyclooctene because of their substantially different monomer reactivities.
RESUMO
The title compound, C10H8BrF3N2, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, which can be considered as being related by a pseudo-inversion center, so their conformations are different; the corresponding N=C-N-C torsion angles are 54.6â (5) and -50.5â (5)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules related by translation in [001] inter-act through short inter-molecular Brâ¯F contacts [3.276â (2) and 3.284â (2)â Å], thus forming two types of crystallographically independent chains.
RESUMO
Here we report the investigation of photophysical properties and photodynamic action of two novel water soluble hybrid molecular structures based on [60]fullerene dyads bearing covalently attached residues of anthracycline antibiotic "ruboxyl". Molecular structures of the designed compounds were confirmed by IR and UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy, electrospray mass spectrometry (compound 5), and (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Dynamic light scattering, steady-state and kinetic fluorimetry and UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy techniques were used to study the behavior of the synthesized hybrid molecular structures in aqueous solutions. Photodynamic activity of the compounds was evaluated by monitoring the O2(-) generation under visible light irradiation using the NBT test. It has been shown that the anthracycline chromophore (ruboxyl moiety possesses no photodynamic activity) behaves as an efficient photosensitizer for the fullerene core operating via the energy and/or the electron transfer pathways. The presented approach opens up wide opportunities for the design of various fullerene-based donor-acceptor systems with enhanced photodynamic properties potentially suitable for biomedicinal applications.
