RESUMO
Ru(II) complexes with polypyridyl ligands (2,2'-bipyridine = bpy, 1,10-phenanthroline = phen) play a central role in the development of photocatalytic organic reactions. In this work, we synthesized four mixed-ligand [Ru(phen)(bpy)2]2+-type complexes (Ru-Pcat-A) bearing two phosphonate substituents P(O)(OH)(OR) (R = H, Et) attached to the phen core at positions 3,8 (Ru-3,8PH and Ru-3,8PHEt) and 4,7 (Ru-4,7PH and Ru-4,7PHEt) of the heterocycle in high yields (87-99%) and characterized them using spectral methods. Single crystal X-ray diffraction was employed to determine the coordination mode of the ditopic phen ligand in Ru-4,7PH. This complex exists as the neutral species and forms a 1D hydrogen-bonded framework in the crystals. The light absorption characteristics were found to be similar for all complexes prepared in this work. However, the emission maxima in aqueous solutions were significantly affected by the substitution of the heterocycle, ranging from 629 nm for Ru-4,7PH to 661 nm for Ru-3,8PHEt. The emission quantum yields in Ar-saturated deionized water showed a strong dependence on the substitution pattern of the phen ligand, with maximal values reaching approximately 0.11 for Ru-4,7PHEt and Ru-4,7PH, which is twice as high as that of the classical [Ru(bpy)3]2+ complex (Ru-bpy). The photocatalytic performance of Ru-Pcat-A was investigated using visible light photoredox catalytic transformations of tertiary amines. With Ru-Pcat-A, we achieved the phosphonylation of N-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs) and cyanation of THIQs and N,N-dimethylaniline in methanol, while a mixture of nitromethane/methanol (1 : 1 v/v) proved to be the optimal solvent for conducting the nitromethylation of THIQs. In the majority of the studied reactions, Ru-4,7PHEt exhibited greater efficiency compared to Ru-bpy, and it could be easily separated from the products using water extraction and reused in the next catalytic cycle. We successfully performed seven consecutive nitromethylation and phosphonylation of N-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline using the recycled homogeneous photoredox catalyst.
RESUMO
The search for new anticancer drugs based on biogenic metals, which have weaker side effects compared to platinum-based drugs, remains an urgent task in medicinal chemistry. Titanocene dichloride, a coordination compound of fully biocompatible titanium, has failed in pre-clinical trials but continues to attract the attention of researchers as a structural framework for the development of new cytotoxic compounds. In this study, a series of titanocene (IV) carboxylate complexes, both new and those known from the literature, was synthesized, and their structures were confirmed by a complex of physicochemical methods and X-ray diffraction analysis (including one previously unknown structure based on perfluorinated benzoic acid). The comprehensive comparison of three approaches for the synthesis of titanocene derivatives known from the literature (the nucleophilic substitution of chloride anions of titanocene dichloride with sodium and silver salts of carboxylic acids as well as the reaction of dimethyltitanocene with carboxylic acids themselves) made it possible to optimize these methods to obtain higher yields of individual target compounds, generalize the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques, and determine the substrate frames of each method. The redox potentials of all obtained titanocene derivatives were determined by cyclic voltammetry. The relationship between the structure of ligands, the reduction potentials of titanocene (IV), and their relative stability in redox processes, as obtained in this work, can be used for the design and synthesis of new effective cytotoxic titanocene complexes. The study of the stability of the carboxylate-containing derivatives of titanocene obtained in the work in aqueous media showed that they were more resistant to hydrolysis than titanocene dichloride. Preliminary tests of the cytotoxicity of the synthesised titanocene dicarboxilates on MCF7 and MCF7-10A cell lines demonstrated an IC50 ≥ 100 µM for all the obtained compounds.

A series of potassium salts of di- and tri-arylsubstituted cyclopentadienes has been obtained by the metalation of the corresponding cyclopentadienes with benzylpotassium in THF media. Crystals of all compounds, afforded by recrystallization from THF/hexane, diglyme-THF/hexane and toluene/hexane mixtures, have been studied by X-ray diffraction. All studied potassium cyclopentadienides exhibit the luminescence at room temperature and overall quantum yield of photoluminescence for potassium salt of diarylsubstituted cyclopentadiene is 18%.
RESUMO
New nickel-based complexes of 1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene (dpp-bian) with BF4 - counterion or halide co-ligands were synthesized in THF and MeCN. The nickel(I) complexes were obtained by using two approaches: 1)â electrochemical reduction of the corresponding nickel(II) precursors; and 2)â a chemical comproportionation reaction. The structural features and redox properties of these complexes were investigated by using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and UV/Vis spectroscopy. The influence of temperature and solvent on the structure of the nickel(I) complexes was studied in detail, and an uncommon reversible solvent-induced monomer/dimer transformation was observed. In the case of the fluoride complex, the unpaired electron was found to be localized on the dpp-bian ligand, whereas all of the other nickel complexes contained neutral dpp-bian moieties.
RESUMO
A new approach to design "antenna-ligands" to enhance the photoluminescence of lanthanide coordination compounds has been developed based on a π-type ligand-the polyphenyl-substituted cyclopentadienyl. The complexes of di-, tri-, and tetraphenyl cyclopentadienyl ligands with Tb and Gd have been synthesized and all the possible structural types from mononuclear to di- and tetranuclear complexes, as well as a coordination polymer were obtained. All types of the complexes have been studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and optical spectroscopy. All terbium complexes are luminescent at ambient temperature and two of them have relatively high quantum yields (50 and 60%). Analysis of energy transfer process has been performed and supported by quantum chemical calculations. The role of a low-lying intraligand charge transfer state formed by extra coordination with K+ in the Tb3+ ion luminescence sensitization is discussed. New aspects for design of lanthanide complexes containing π-type ligands with desired luminescence properties have been proposed.
RESUMO
The interaction of [Ru(eta(6)-C(10)H(8))(Cp)](+) (Cp=C(5)H(5)) with aromatic amino acids (L-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine, L-tryptophane, D-phenylglycine, and L-threo-3-phenylserine) under visible-light irradiation gives the corresponding [Ru(eta(6)-amino acid)(Cp)](+) complexes in near-quantitative yield. The reaction proceeds in air at room temperature in water and tolerates the presence of non-aromatic amino acids (except those which are sulfur containing), monosaccharides, and nucleotides. The complex [Ru(eta(6)-C(10)H(8))(Cp)](+) was also used for selective labeling of Tyr and Phe residues of small peptides, namely, angiotensin I and II derivatives.

In this paper, we report the interaction of the CB[7] molecular container with crown ether styryl and (bis)styryl dyes 1-6. The interaction of monostyryl dyes (1 and 2) with CB[7] results in the formation of 1:1 complexes where the CB[7] molecule is located on the region of the guest encompassing the pyridinium ring, C=C double bond, and a portion of the aryl ring of benzocrown ethers 1 and 2. For (bis)styryl dyes (3-5), the formation of two types of complexes with composition dye.CB[7].dye and CB[7].dye.CB[7] was confirmed by a combination of optical and electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS) methods. In the case of (bis)styryl dye (6), both 2:1 and 1:1 compositions 6.CB[7].6 and CB[7].6 were formed. Complex formation is accompanied by substantial changes in the optical characteristics of the dyes and formation of long-lived excimer species. We tested the stimuli responsiveness of this system in response to metal ions. We find that the metal ions prefer to bind to the electrostatically negative ureidyl C=O portals of the CB[7] rather than with the crown ether moiety of the styryl dyes.
RESUMO
The high-resolution X-ray diffraction analysis of the electron density distribution and plane-wave density functional theory has been applied to estimate the lattice energy and barrier to rotation of a benzene ring in the crystal of (eta(6)-C(6)H(6))(2)Cr. Experimental data made it possible to perform analysis of the metal-(pi-ligand) bond and estimate the nature and energy of weak H...H and H...C intermolecular interactions in the crystal. Summation of the intermolecular H...H and H...C interaction energies makes it possible to reproduce the experimental sublimation enthalpy value with high accuracy.
RESUMO
The potential energy surface for the benzene dimer in stacked conformations (84 points calculated) was computed at the MP2(FC)6-31+G(2d,2p) level of theory. Electron density (ED) distribution computed using the MP2(FC), B3LYP, and Hartree-Fock methods with the same basis set is studied in the frame of topological analysis. It is found that ED topology does not depend on the method of calculation. The values of the ED and its Laplacian in the cage critical point calculated using different methods are determined to be linearly dependent with the slope depending on basis set. Correlation equations based on these properties allow the interaction energy between benzene rings to be predicted with 8% mean relative error in the energy for the given region of the potential energy surface. This provides a new method for the estimation of stacking interaction energy using ED properties calculated with low level quantum-chemical methods.

Achiral, diamagnetic Ni(II) complexes 1 and 3 have been synthesized from Ni(II) salts and the Schiff bases, generated from glycine and PBP (7) and PBA (11), respectively, in MeONa/MeOH solutions. The requisite carbonyl-derivatizing agents pyridine-2-carboxylic acid(2-benzoyl-phenyl)-amide 7 (PBP) and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid(2-formyl-phenyl)-amide 11 (PBA) were readily prepared from picolinic acid and o-aminobenzophenone or picolinic acid and methyl o-anthranilate, respectively. The structure of 1 was established by X-ray crystallography. Complexes 1 and 3 were found to undergo C-alkylation with alkyl halides under PTC conditions in the presence of beta-naphthol or benzyltriethylammonium bromide as catalysts to give mono- and bis-alkylated products, respectively. Decomposition of the complexes with aqueous HCl under mild conditions gave the required amino acids, and PBP and PBA were recovered. Alkylation of 1 with highly reactive alkyl halides, carried out under the PTC conditions in the presence of 10% mol of (S)- or (R)-2-hydroxy-2'-amino-1,1'-binaphthyl 31a (NOBIN) and/or its N-acyl derivatives and by (S)- or (R)-2-hydroxy-8'-amino-1,1'-binaphthyl 32a (iso-NOBIN) and its N-acyl derivatives, respectively, gave rise to alpha-amino acids with high enantioselectivities (90-98.5% ee) in good-to-excellent chemical yields at room temperature within several minutes. An unusually large positive nonlinear effect was observed in these reactions. The Michael addition of acrylic derivatives 37 to 1 was conducted under similar conditions with up to 96% ee. The (1)H NMR and IR spectra of a mixture of the sodium salt of NOBIN and 1 indicated formation of a complex between the two components. Implications of the association and self-association of NOBIN for the observed sense of asymmetric induction and nonlinear effects are discussed.
