RESUMO
Fragile hemiaminal ether linkages present in the backbone of koneramines (LR OR'), tridentate ligands, bound to copper(II) in stereoselectively self-assembled syn-[Cu(LR OR')X2 ] complexes were transformed into sturdy methylene linkages to make corresponding rac-[Cu(LR H)Cl2 ] complexes by late-stage ligand modification after coordination with the retention of coordination sphere. The generality of stereoselective self-assembly of koneramine complexes is shown by utilising a number of metal ions, anions, amines, alcohols and thiols with complete characterisations.
RESUMO
Creatinine, a biologically important compound, is used to analyze kidney function and kidney diseases in the human body. The salt form of creatinine is used in the formation of drug materials like anti-HIV, antifungal, antiprotozoal, antiviral and antitumour compounds. Here we report the solid-state structures of three new crystalline salts, namely, creatininium (2-amino-1-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium) bromide, C4H8N3O+·Br-, (I), creatininium 3-aminobenzoate, C4H8N3O+·C7H6NO2-, (II), and creatininium 3,5-dinitrobenzoate, C4H8N3O+·C7H3N2O6-, (III). These salts have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and Hirshfeld surface analysis. The structural chemistry of salts (I)-(III) and their crystal packing are discussed in detail. The primary interaction between the creatinine cation and the acid anion in the three salts is N-H...Br/O hydrogen bonds. In salt (I), the creatinine cation and bromide anion are connected through a pair of N-H...Br hydrogen bonds forming R42(8) and R42(12) ring motifs. In salts (II) and (III), the creatinine cation interacts with the corresponding anion via a pair of N-H...O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C-H...O and O-H...O hydrogen bonds with the ring motifs R22(8), R21(7) and R21(6). Furthermore, the crystal structures are stabilized by π-π, C-H...π, C-O...π and N-O...π stacking interactions. The contributions made by each hydrogen bond in maintaining the crystal structure stability has been quantified by Hirshfeld surface analysis.

A 16-line pattern has been theoretically predicted, but hitherto not reported, for the Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectrum of antiferromagnetically coupled CuII triangles experiencing isotropic exchange of isosceles magnetic symmetry. Now, the crystallization of such a triangular species and its X-ray structure determination in a polar space group, R3 (No. 146), has enabled its single crystal EPR study. Its detailed magnetic susceptibility, and X- and Q-band, powder and single crystal EPR spectroscopic study reveals the effect of molecular structure and of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (DMI) on the gâ, g⥠and Aâ parameters of the spectrum; DMI is considered for the first time in such a context. Moreover, careful analysis of the spectrum allows the deconvolution of two slightly different cocrystallized magnetic species.
RESUMO
Developing well-defined iron-based catalysts for olefin metathesis would be a breakthrough achievement in the field not only to replace existing catalysts by inexpensive metals but also to attain a new reactivity taking advantage of the unique electronic structure of the base metals. Here, we present a two-coordinate homoleptic iron complex, Fe(HMTO)2 [HMTO=O-2,6-(2,4,6-Me3 C6 H2 )2 C6 H3 ], that is capable of performing ring-opening metathesis polymerization of norbornene to produce highly stereoregular polynorbornene (99 % cis, syndiotactic). The use of heteroleptic Fe(HMTO)(RO) [RO=(CH3 )2 CF3 CO, CH3 (CF3 )2 CO, or Ph(CF3 )2 CO] prepared inâ situ significantly increases the polymerization rate while preserving selectivity. The resulting polymers were characterized by 1 H and 13 Câ NMR spectroscopy and gel-permeation chromatography.
RESUMO
A new, cyclic carbonate eudesmane-type sesquiterpene, eudesmacarbonate (1), was isolated from marine filamentous cyanobacterial mats associated with apparent ingestion-related intoxications of captive bottlenose dolphins in the Florida Keys. Sequencing of 16S rDNA revealed that mats were composed of closely related Oscillatoriacean species including a previously undocumented species of Neolyngbya. The structure of 1 was elucidated by (+)-HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and vibrational circular dichroism data. Toxicity of 1 was assessed in the zebrafish embryo/larval model, and 1 was found to exhibit effects qualitatively similar to those observed for the known neurotoxin brevetoxin-2 and consistent with neurobehavioral impairment.

Previously reported ferromagnetic triangles (NnBu4 )2 [Cu3 (µ3 -Cl)2 (µ-4-NO2 -pz)3 Cl3 ] (1), (PPN)2 [Cu3 (µ3 -Cl)2 (µ-pz)3 Cl3 ] (2), (bmim)2 [Cu3 (µ3 -Cl)2 (µ-pz)3 Cl3 ] (3) and newly reported (PPh4 )2 [Cu3 (µ3 -Cl)2 (µ-4-Ph-pz)3 Cl3 ] (4) were studied by magnetic susceptometry, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and ab initio calculations to assess the origins of their ferromagnetism and of the magnetic anisotropy of their ground S=3/2 state (PPN+ =bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium, bmim+ =1-butyl-3-methylbenzimidazolium, pz- =pyrazolate). Ab initio studies revealed the d z 2 character of the magnetic orbitals of the compressed trigonal bipyramidal copper(II) ions. Ferromagnetic interactions were attributed to weak orbital overlap via the pyrazolate bridges. From the wavefunctions expansions, the ratios of the magnetic couplings were determined, which were indeterminate by magnetic susceptometry. Single-crystal EPR studies of 1 were carried out to extend the spin Hamiltonian with terms which induce zero-field splitting (zfs), namely dipolar interactions, anisotropic exchange and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (DMI). The data were treated through both a giant-spin model and through a multispin exchange-coupled model. The latter indicated that ≈62 % of the zfs is due to anisotropic and ≈38 % due to dipolar interactions. The powder EPR data of all complexes were fitted to a simplified form of the multispin model and the anisotropic and dipolar contributions to the ground state zfs were estimated.
RESUMO
Aurora B plays critical role in the process of chromosome condensation and chromosome orientation during the regulation of mitosis. The overexpression of Aurora B has been observed in several tumor types. As a part of our ongoing effort to develop Aurora B inhibitors, herein, we described the design, synthesis and evaluation of phenyl/pyridine diazepine analogs. The diazepane aniline pyrimidine (4a) was identified as an initial hit (Aurora B IC50 6.9 µM). Molecular modeling guided SAR optimization lead to the identification of 8-fluorobenzodiazepine (6c) with single digit nM potency (Aurora B IC50 8 nM). In the antiproliferation assay 6c showed activity across the cell lines with IC50 of 0.57, 0.42, and 0.69 µM for MCF-7, MDA-MB 231, and SkoV3 respectively. In the in vivo PK profile. 6c has shown higher bioavailability (73%) along with good exposure (AUC of 1360 ng.h/mL).

The croconate dianion is a highly versatile ligand with two tautomeric forms making it useful for building large superstructures in the solid state. The single-crystal X-ray structures of PbII- and CdII-croconate coordination polymers, namely catena-poly[[[diaqualead(II)]-µ-croconato-κ4O1,O2:O3,O4] monohydrate], {[Pb(C5O5)(H2O)2]·H2O}n, 1, and catena-poly[[triaquacadmium(II)]-µ-croconato-κ4O1,O2:O3,O4], [Cd(C5O5)(H2O)3]n, 2, have been determined. Both polymers form one-dimensional (1D) structures; 1 is a nonplanar 1D zigzag coordination polymer extended along the crystallographic b axis, whereas 2 is a planar 1D ribbon parallel to the [101] direction. In 2, three H2O molecules are coordinated directly to the metal atom, while in 1, only two H2O molecules are directly coordinated to the metal atom. A third interstitial H2O molecule is involved in hydrogen bonding with O atoms of the croconate ligands of an adjacent layer and other H2O molecules, resulting in stacked double layers parallel to the [105] plane. Solid-state FT-IR and solution UV-Vis spectra also substantiate the croconate coordination.
RESUMO
Two trinuclear CuII pyrazolato complexes with a Cu3(µ3-E)-core (E = O2- or OH-) and terminal nitrite ligands in two coordination modes were characterized crystallographically, spectroscopically, and electrochemically. One-electron oxidation of the µ3-O species produces a delocalized, mixed-valent, formally CuII2CuIII-nitrite, but no nitrate. In contrast, under reducing conditions-addition of PhSH as an electron and proton donor-both complexes mediate the reduction of nitrite, releasing NO.

The X-ray crystal structure of the CuII complex [Cu3(µ3-OH)(µ-pz)3(PhCOO)3]- (pz- = pyrazolato anion) shows an isosceles triangular core, further forming a hexanuclear H-bonded aggregate. Cleavage of the H-bonds in solution results in isolated trinuclear species. Analysis of variable temperature magnetic susceptibility data of a powder sample shows an antiferromagnetically-coupled Cu3-core with a doublet ground state and isotropic exchange parameters (Jave = -355 cm-1, Hiso = -JijSiSj). The fitting of magnetic data requires the inclusion of antisymmetric exchange, AE (HAE = Gij·Si × Sj) with Gz = 31.2 cm-1 and no detectable inter-Cu3 isotropic exchange. X-band EPR spectroscopy in a frozen tetrahydrofuran solution of the compound indicates isolated Cu3-species with gâ,eff = 2.25, gâ¥,eff = 1.67. The small value of gâ¥,eff (âª2.0) is consistent with the presence of AE in agreement with the analysis of the magnetic measurements. The parallel component exhibits a hyperfine pattern corresponding to one I = 3/2 nucleus with Aâ = 425 MHz. This implies a specific exchange coupling scheme obeying the order |J12| = |J13| < |J23| consistent with the crystallographically determined two long and one short CuCu distances. The role of AE in modulating the hyperfine parameters in antiferromagnetic Cu3 clusters is studied. EPR spectra at X- and Q-band were performed with powder samples of the cluster at liquid helium temperatures. The spectra in both bands are consistent with two interacting Sa,b = 1/2 species in the point dipolar approximation. Fitting of the spectra reveals that each spin is characterized by gâ = 2.24, g⥠= 1.65 which is in agreement with an isolated Cu3 cluster in the ground state. The determined inter-spin distance of 4.4-4.5 Å is very close to the distance between the Cu(1) and Cu(1)' sites of the two trimeric units as imposed crystallographically (4.3 Å). This constitutes further verification of the specific exchange coupling scheme within each trimer. Magnetostructural correlations previously adopted for antiferromagnetically coupled Cu3 clusters are discussed in the light of the combined magnetic measurements and EPR spectroscopy.
RESUMO
Crystal structure determination of doxorubicin nitrate, (DoxH)NO3, systematic name (7S,9S)-7-{[(2R,4S,5S,6S)-4-azaniumyl-5-hy-droxy-6-methyl-oxan-2-yl]-oxy}-6,9,11-trihy-droxy-9-(2-hy-droxy-acet-yl)-4-meth-oxy-8,10-di-hydro-7H-tetra-cen-5,12-dione nitrate, shows two formula units present in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal lattice, hydrogen-bonded pairs of (DoxH+) cations and segregation of the aglycone and sugar moieties are observed. Inspection of mol-ecular overlays reveals that the conformation of (DoxH)NO3 resembles that of DNA-inter-calated, but not of protein-docked (DoxH)+. The structure was refined as a two-component twin.
RESUMO
The hexa-nuclear title compound, [{Cu3(µ3-OCH3)(µ-C3H2ClN2)3}2(µ-C3H2ClN2)3(µ6-Cl)] or [Cu6(C3H2ClN2)9(CH3O)2Cl], crystallizes in the space group Pbcn, with individual mol-ecules being located on a twofold rotation axis. The mol-ecule adopts a trigonal prismatic shape, with two trinuclear units linked by three 4-chloro-pyrazolate ligand bridges by encapsulating a Cl- anion in a µ6-coordination mode. In the crystal, individual mol-ecules are stacked into rods parallel to [1-10] that are arranged in a pseudo-hexa-gonal packing. Cohesion between mol-ecules is accomplished through weak C-Hâ¯Cl inter-actions.
RESUMO
The trinuclear triangular cuprate anion of the title compound, tris-[bis-(tri-phenyl-phospho-ranyl-idene)ammonium] tris-(µ2-4-chloro-pyrazolato-κ(2) N:N')-µ3-oxido-tris-[(nitrato-κ(2) O,O')cuprate(II)] nitrate monohydrate, (C36H30P2N)[Cu3(C3H2ClN2)3(NO3)3O]NO3·H2O, has point group symmetry 3., with the µ3-O atom located on the threefold rotation axis. The distorted square-pyramidal coordination sphere of the Cu(II) atom is completed by two N atoms of trans-bridging pyrazolate groups and a chelating nitrate anion. The complex anion is slightly bent, with the nitrate and pyrazolate groups occupying positions above and below the Cu3 plane, respectively. In the crystal, weak O-Hâ¯O and C-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds, as well as π-π inter-actions, are present.
RESUMO
The transition-metal-catalyzed or radical-mediated halosulfonylation of 5-ethynyluridine provided (E)-(1-halo-2-tosylvinyl)uridines. These (ß-halo)vinyl sulfones undergo efficient stereoselective addition-elimination with amines or thiols to provide Z-ß-aminovinyl or E-ß-thiovinyl sulfones tethered to the C5 position of the uracil ring.

Treatment of toyocamycin or sangivamycin with 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin in MeOH (r.t./30 min) gave 8-bromotoyocamycin and 8-bromosangivamycin in good yields. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution of 8-bromotoyocamycin with sodium azide provided novel 8-azidotoyocamycin. Strain promoted click reactions of the latter with cyclooctynes resulted in the formation of the 1,2,3-triazole products. Iodine-mediated direct C8-H bond functionalization of tubercidin with benzotriazoles in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide gave the corresponding 8-benzotriazolyltubercidin derivatives. The 8-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-7-deazapurine derivatives showed moderate quantum yields and a large Stokes shifts of ~ 100 nm.
RESUMO
The encapsulation of a fluoride ion in a trigonal prismatic CuII6-pyrazolato cage results in a small expansion of the Cu6-host. The structural, electronic and magnetic features of the Cu6-complex, containing an endohedral fluoride in the rare µ6-F coordination mode, are compared with those of the parent complex with a vacant Cu6-cage.
RESUMO
Inspired by the stepwise addition of octanuclear iron units into mammalian ferritin, a "stop-and-go" synthesis strategy was used to prepare two microporous (Langmuir surface area, 490 m(2) g(-1); effective pore size, 4-5 Å) hierarchical materials {[Fe8(µ4-O)4(µ-pz)12Cl0.3(µ-O)1.85}n () and {[Fe8(µ4-O)4(µ-4-Me-pz)12Cl0.4(µ-O)1.8}n (), which are new members of the EO2 family of polymeric materials (E = C, Si and Ge). The secondary building units (SBUs) E = [Fe8(µ4-O)4(µ-4-R-pz)12] (Fe8) are nanoscale pseudo-spherical clusters, rather than single atoms, forming µ-oxo Fe-O-Fe linkages between Fe8-SBUs. The characteristic Fe-O-Fe asymmetric stretching mode in the infrared (IR) spectra of these compounds appearing at around 800 cm(-1) suggest the formation of approximately linear µ-oxo Fe-O-Fe linkages between Fe8-SBUs in and . We employ the concept of continuous random network (CRN) to describe for the first time the framework features of a Fe8-based amorphous materials, in which the average connecting numbers of each Fe8-cluster are â¼3.7 and â¼3.6 for and , respectively. (57)Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopic analysis provides insights to the intercluster connectivity of and on one hand and to their magnetic properties on the other, evident by a magnetic split sextet below 30 K. The combination of Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetism measurements reveals a spin-glass behavior with Tg of â¼30 K. The hierarchical porous materials and straddle the gap between metal oxides and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). This study may open an alternative way for the development of multifunctional materials based on high nuclearity metal clusters.
RESUMO
The title structure, C(15)H(7)N(7)O(10)·C(3)H(6)O, was prepared by penta-nitration of 3,5-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole. The proton attached to a pyrazole N atom forms a hydrogen bond with the O atom of the acetone solvent mol-ecule, owing to the NO(2) enhanced acidity of the proton. The NO(2) group on the phenyl C atom is twisted by 33.9â (2)° from coplanarity with the ring in order to avoid a short intra-molecular Oâ¯O contact with an O atom of an adjacent pyrazole-bonded NO(2) group.
RESUMO
A combination of detailed magnetisation studies and electronic-structure analysis using broken-symmetry DFT is used to explore the electronic structure of a trigonal prismatic Cu(II)(6) cluster. The presence of six paramagnetic metal centres with S = 1/2 gives rise to a maximum multiplicity of S = 3 and a total of 31 broken-symmetry states with M(S) < 3. Computed differences in energy between the high-spin and broken-symmetry states are expressed in terms of the 15 distinct Heisenberg exchange coupling parameters, J(ij), and the equations are solved by a least-squares fitting procedure. By inspection of the errors introduced by progressive symmetrisation of the Hamiltonian to reduce the number of independent J(ij), we arrive at a minimal model containing only four distinct J(ij) (three intra- and one inter-triangular). The computed values then guide the fitting of the magnetisation data. The computed trends in J(ij) can only be reproduced when antisymmetric exchange is included in the model Hamiltonian. The use of this Hamiltonian provides a reasonable description of the magnetic behaviour at all temperatures and fields. If a simpler isotropic model Hamiltonian is used instead, the best fit values of J(ij) are compromised by the need to fit the low-temperature region where antisymmetric exchange dominates the shape of the curve.
