RESUMO
The reaction between 5-acetylbarbituric acid and 4-dimethylthiosemicarbazide or 4-hexamethyleneiminyl thiosemicarbazide produces 5-acetylbarbituric-4-dimethylthiosemicarbazone (H2AcbDM) and 5-acetylbarbituric-4N-hexamethyleneiminyl thiosemicarbazone (H2Acbhexim). Eight new complexes with different copper(II) salts have been prepared and characterized using elemental analysis, molar conductance, UV-Vis, ESI-HRMS, FT-IR, magnetic moment, EPR, and cyclic voltammetry. In addition, three-dimensional molecular structures of [Cu(HAcbDM)(H2O)2](NO3)·H2O (3a), [Cu(HAcbDM)(H2O)2]ClO4 (4), and [Cu(HAcbHexim)Cl] (6) were determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography, and an analysis of their supramolecular structure was carried out. The H-bonded assemblies were further studied energetically using DFT calculations and MEP surface and QTAIM analyses. In these complexes, the thiosemicarbazone coordinates to the metal ion in an ONS-tridentate manner, in the O-enolate/S-thione form. The electrochemical behavior of the thiosemicarbazones and their copper(II) complexes has been investigated at room temperature using the cyclic voltammetry technique in DMFA. The Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox system was found to be consistent with the quasi-reversible diffusion-controlled process.
RESUMO
The synthesis and characterization of the multicomponent crystals formed by 2,2'-thiodiacetic acid (H2tda) and 2,6-diaminopurine (Hdap) or N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine (9heade) are detailed in this report. These crystals exist in a salt rather than a co-crystal form, as confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffractometry, which reflects their ionic nature. This analysis confirmed proton transfer from the 2,2'-thiodiacetic acid to the basic groups of the coformers. The new multicomponent crystals have molecular formulas [(H9heade+)(Htda-)] 1 and [(H2dap+)2(tda2-)]·2H2O 2. These were also characterized using FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectroscopies, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry (TG/DSC) analyses. In the crystal packing the ions interact with each other via O-Hâ¯N, O-Hâ¯O, N-Hâ¯O, and N-Hâ¯N hydrogen bonds, generating cyclic hydrogen-bonded motifs with graph-set notation of R22(16), R22(10), R32(10), R33(10), R22(9), R32(8), and R42(8), to form different supramolecular homo- and hetero-synthons. In addition, in the crystal packing of 2, pairs of diaminopurinium ions display a strong anti-parallel π,π-stacking interaction, characterized by short inter-centroids and interplanar distances (3.39 and 3.24 Å, respectively) and a fairly tight angle (17.5°). These assemblies were further analyzed energetically using DFT calculations, MEP surface analysis, and QTAIM characterization.

Considering that Cu(tda) chelate (tda: dithioacetate) is a receptor for adenine and related 6-aminopurines, this study reports on the synthesis, molecular and crystal structures, thermal stability, spectral properties and DFT calculations related to [Cu(tda)(9heade)(H2O)]·2H2O (1) [9heade: N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine]. Concerning the molecular recognition of (metal chelate)-(adenine synthetic nucleoside), 1 represents an unprecedented metal binding pattern (MBP) for 9heade. However, unprecedentedly, the Cu(tda)-9heade molecular recognition in 1 is essentially featured in the Cu-N1(9heade) bond, without any N6-Hâ¯O(carboxyl tda) interligand interaction. Nevertheless, N1 being the most basic donor for N9-substituted adenines, this Cu-N1 bond is now assisted by an O2-water-mediated interaction (N6-Hâ¯O2 and O2â¯Cu weak contact). Also, in the crystal packing, the O-H(ol) of 9heade interacts with its own adenine moiety as a result of an O3-water-mediated interaction (O(ol)-Hâ¯O3 plus O3-H36â¯π(adenine moiety)). Both water-mediated interactions seem to be responsible for serious alterations in the physical properties of crystalline or grounded samples. Density functional theory calculations were used to evaluate the interactions energetically. Moreover, the quantum theory of atoms-in-molecules (QTAIM), in combination with the noncovalent interaction plot (NCIPlot), was used to analyze the interactions and rationalize the existence and relative importance of hydrogen bonding, chalcogen bonding and π-stacking interactions. The novelty of this work resides in the discovery of a novel binding mode for N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine. Moreover, the investigation of the important role of water in the solid state of 1 is also relevant, along with the chalcogen bonding interactions demonstrated by the density functional theory (DFT) study.
RESUMO
Reactions in water between the Cu2(µ-EGTA) chelate (EGTA = ethylene-bis(oxyethyleneimino)tetraacetate(4-) ion) and Hdap in molar ratios 1:1 and 1:2 yield only blue crystals of the ternary compound [Cu4(µ-EGTA)2(µ-H(N3)dap)2(H2O)2]·7H2O (1), which has been studied via single-crystal X-ray diffraction and various physical methods (thermal stability, spectral and magnetic properties), as well as DFT theoretical calculations. In the crystal, uncoordinated water is disordered. The tetranuclear complex molecule also has some irrelevant disorder in an EGTA-ethylene moiety. In the complex molecule, both bridging organic molecules act as binucleating ligands. There are two distorted five- and two six-coordinated Cu(II) centers. Each half of EGTA acts as a tripodal tetradentate Cu(II) chelator, with a mer-NO2 + O(ether, distal) conformation. Hdap exhibits the tautomer H(N3)dap, with the dissociable H-atom on its less basic N-heterocyclic atom. These features favor the efficient cooperation between Cu-N7 or Cu-N9 bonds with appropriate O-EGTA atoms, as N6-H···O or N3-H···O interligand interactions, respectively. The bridging role of both organics determines the tetranuclear dimensionality of the complex. In this crystal, such molecules associate in zig-zag chains built by alternating π-π interactions between the five- or six-atom rings of Hdap ligands of adjacent molecules. DFT theoretical calculations (using two different theoretical models and characterized by the quantum theory of "atoms in molecules") reveal the importance of these π-π interactions between Hdap ligands, as well as those corresponding to the referred hydrogen bonds in the contributed tetranuclear molecule.
RESUMO
The intrinsic acid-base properties of the hexa-2'-deoxynucleoside pentaphosphate, d(ApGpGpCpCpT) [=(A1âG2âG3âC4âC5âT6)=(HNPP)5â»] have been determined by ¹H NMR shift experiments. The pKa values of the individual sites of the adenosine (A), guanosine (G), cytidine (C), and thymidine (T) residues were measured in water under single-strand conditions (i.e., 10% D2O, 47 °C, I=0.1 M, NaClO4). These results quantify the release of H⺠from the two (N7)H⺠(GâG), the two (N3)H⺠(CâC), and the (N1)H⺠(A) units, as well as from the two (N1)H (GâG) and the (N3)H (T) sites. Based on measurements with 2'-deoxynucleosides at 25 °C and 47 °C, they were transferred to pKa values valid in water at 25 °C and I=0.1 M. Intramolecular stacks between the nucleobases A1 and G2 as well as most likely also between G2 and G3 are formed. For HNPP three pKa clusters occur, that is those encompassing the pKa values of 2.44, 2.97, and 3.71 of G2(N7)Hâº, G3(N7)Hâº, and A1(N1)Hâº, respectively, with overlapping buffer regions. The tautomer populations were estimated, giving for the release of a single proton from five-fold protonated H5(HNPP)(±) , the tautomers (G2)N7, (G3)N7, and (A1)N1 with formation degrees of about 74, 22, and 4%, respectively. Tautomer distributions reveal pathways for proton-donating as well as for proton-accepting reactions both being expected to be fast and to occur practically at no "cost". The eight pKa values for H5(HNPP)(±) are compared with data for nucleosides and nucleotides, revealing that the nucleoside residues are in part affected very differently by their neighbors. In addition, the intrinsic acidity constants for the RNA derivative r(A1âG2âG3âC4âC5âU6), where U=uridine, were calculated. Finally, the effect of metal ions on the pKa values of nucleobase sites is briefly discussed because in this way deprotonation reactions can easily be shifted to the physiological pH range.

7-Deaza-8-aza-adenine, namely 4-aminopyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (H4app), is a bioisoster of adenine (Hade) resulting from the translocation of N7 and C8 atoms on the purine moiety. With the aim of studying the influence of this translocation on the metal binding abilities of H4app, we have prepared and structurally characterized two ternary copper(II) complexes having H4app and one N-benzyl-iminodiacetate chelator (MEBIDA or FBIDA, with a methyl or fluoro group in para- of the benzyl aromatic ring): [Cu(2)(MEBIDA)(2)(µ(2)-N1,N8-H4app)(H(2)O)(2)]·4H(2)O (1) and [Cu(4)(FBIDA)(4)(µ(2)-N8,N9-H4app)(2)(H(2)O)]·3.5H(2)O (2). Furthermore, thermal, spectral, and magnetic properties have been also investigated. In 1, H(N9)4app is disordered over two equally pondered positions and the µ(2)-N1,N8 coordination mode is assisted by N6-H···O and N9-H···O intramolecular interactions, respectively. The acyclic nonlinear molecular topology of 2 is strongly influenced by two intramolecular H-bonding interactions (O-H···O-carboxylate) involving the apical aqua ligand of a terminal Cu(II) atom. Thus, both compounds have in common the Cu-N8 bond. In order to better understand our limited structural information, DFT calculations for the individual tautomers of H4app as well as mononuclear Cu(II) model systems have been carried out. According to previous results, we conclude that H(N9)4app is the most stable tautomer followed by H(N8)4app. When N9 and N8 are metalated, then the tautomer H(N1)4app can come into play as observed in compound 2. Likewise, the findings concerning compound 1 suggest that the formation of a Cu-N1 bond in H4app results was favored compared to neutral adenine, for which only one case has been reported with such coordination despite the large variety of related Cu(II)-Hade described in the literature.

The X-ray diffraction structural results of 23 ternary compounds, type M(II)(iminodiacetate-like)(hypoxanthine) [M = Co, Ni, Cu, or Zn], show that the iminodiacetate moiety conformation (mer-NO(2) or fac-NO(2)) is able to drive the M-hypoxanthine binding patterns displaying the M-N9 or M-N3 bond, cooperating with a N9-H···O intramolecular interaction, respectively.

In the extensive field of metal ions, their interactions with nucleic acids, and their constituents, the main aim of this work is to develop a metal chelate suitable to recognize two molecules of an adenine nucleoside. For this purpose, the dinuclear chelate Cu2 (µ-EDTA) (ethylenediaminetetraacetate(4-) ion (EDTA)) is chosen as a bicephalic receptor model for N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine (9heade). A one-pot synthesis is reported to obtain the compound [Cu2(µ2-EDTA)(9heade)2(H2O)4]·3H2O, which has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and various spectral, thermal, and magnetic methods. The complex unit is a centro-symmetric molecule, where each Cu (II) center is chelated by a half-EDTA, and is further surrounded by an N7-dentate 9heade nucleoside and two non-equivalent trans-O-aqua molecules. The metal chelate-nucleoside molecular recognition is referred to as an efficient cooperation between the Cu-N7(9heade) coordination bond and a (9heade)N6-H···O(carboxyl, EDTA) interligand interaction. Theoretical calculations are also made to account for the relevance of this interaction. The extreme weakness with which each water molecule binds to the metal center disturbs the thermal stability and the infrared (FT-IR) and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of the compound.
RESUMO
Four ternary metal-complexes with Cu(II) or Zn(II), 2,6-pyridine-dicarboxylate (pdc) or glycyl-glycinate (GG) and the synthetic nucleoside 9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine (9heade) have been synthesized and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and other physical methods. Relevant supramolecular assemblies found in the solid state structures have been further studied using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In addition, the energetic features of the non-covalent interactions as well as the cooperativity effects have been calculated and characterized using the non-covalent interaction plot computational tool. Compounds trans-[Cu(pdc)(9heade)(H2O)2]·3H2O (1a) and [Cu(pdc)(9heade)(H2O)]·H2O (1b), trans-[Zn(pdc)(9heade)(H2O)2] (2), share the same molecular recognition pattern consisting in the cooperation of the metal-N7(9heade) bond and an interligand (9heade)N6-H···O(pdc) interaction, regardless of the nature of the metal, the coordination environment and the water content. At a supramolecular level, these compounds exhibit pairs of complex molecules linked by H-bonds and interesting anion-π/π-π/π-anion assemblies (in 1a and 1b) or the unprecedented π-π interactions (in 2), involving the purine moieties or the exocyclic -6NH2 purine groups, respectively. Compound 3, {[Cu(GG)(9heade)(H2O)·Cu(GG)(µ2-9heade)]·8H2O}n, consists in asymmetric dinuclear complex units (Cu···Cu 7.83â¯Å) that connect with adjacent ones by pairs of very weak Cu-O(carboxylate) bonds (Cu···Cu 3.81â¯Å) building a polymeric chain. The supramolecular transition from a single molecule to dinuclear units and finally a polymeric chain is also observed in the electron paramagnetic resonance spectra and discussed from a structural point of view as well as by DFT calculations. The unprecedented N7 and µ-N7,O(ol) metal binding patterns of 9heade differs from that recently reported (µ-N1,N7) in a Cd(II) polymer.

A comprehensive study of the protonation equilibria of a series of polyamine ligands along with their complex formation equilibria with Cu2+ and Zn2+ is reported in this work. The primary aim of this study has been the achievement of homogeneous thermodynamic data on these ligands, in order to evaluate their influence on the homeostatic equilibria of essential metal ions (Cu2+ and Zn2+) in biological fluids. These polyamines are largely used as linkers in the building of chelating agents for iron overload. Potentiometric and spectrophotometric techniques were used for the characterization of protonation and complex formation constants. In addition, the characterization of the formed complexes is discussed together with selected solid-state crystal structures, remarking the influence of the length of the chain and of the linear or tetradentate tripod nature of the polyamine ligands on the stability of the complexes.

5- and 6-Uracilmethylphosphonate (5Umpa(2-) and 6Umpa(2-)) as acyclic nucleotide analogues are in the focus of anticancer and antiviral research. Connected metabolic reactions involve metal ions; therefore, we determined the stability constants of M(Umpa) complexes (M(2+)=Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Mn(2+), Co(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+), or Cd(2+)). However, the coordination chemistry of these Umpa species is also of interest in its own right, for example, the phosphonate-coordinated M(2+) interacts with (C4)O to form seven-membered chelates with 5Umpa(2-), thus leading to intramolecular equilibria between open (op) and closed (cl) isomers. No such interaction occurs with 6Umpa(2-). In both M(Umpa) series deprotonation of the uracil residue leads to the formation of M(Umpa-H)(-) complexes at higher pH values. Their stability was evaluated by taking into account the fact that the uracilate residue can bind metal ions to give M(2)(Umpa-H)(+) species. This has led to two further important insights: 1) In M(6Umpa-H)-cl the H(+) is released from (N1)H, giving rise to six-membered chelates (degrees of formation of ca. 90 to 99.9 % with Mn(2+), Co(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+), or Cd(2+)). 2) In M(5Umpa-H)$-cl the (N3)H is deprotonated, leading to a higher stability of the seven-membered chelates involving (C4)O (even Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) chelates are formed up to approximately 50 %). In both instances the M(Umpa-H)-op species led to the formation of M(2)(Umpa-H)(+) complexes that have one M(2+) at the phosphonate and one at the (N3)(-) (plus carbonyl) site; this proves that nucleotides can bind metal ions independently at the phosphate and the nucleobase residues. X-ray structural analyses of 6Umpa derivatives show that in diesters the phosphonate group is turned away from the uracil residue, whereas in H(2)(6Umpa) the orientation is such that upon deprotonation in aqueous solution a strong hydrogen bond is formed between (N1)H and PO(3) (2-); replacement of the hydro gen with M(2+) gives the M(6Umpa-H)-cl chelates mentioned.

Several nucleic acid components and their metal complexes are known to be involved in crucial metabolic steps. Therefore the study of metal-nucleic acid interactions becomes essential to understand these biological processes. In this work, the synthetic purine-like nucleoside acyclovir (acv) has been used as a model of guanosine recognition with copper(II)-polyamine chelates. The chemical stability of the N9-acyclic arm in acv offers the possibility to use this antiviral drug to deepen the knowledge of metal-nucleoside interactions. Cu(II) chelates with cyclam, cyclen and trien were used as suitable receptors. All these copper(II) tetraamine chelates have in common the potential ability to yield a Cu-N7(apical) bond assisted by an appropriate (amine)N-Hâ¯O6(acv) intra-molecular interligand interaction. A series of synthesis afforded the following compounds: [Cu(cyclam)(ClO4)2] (1), {[Cu(cyclam)(µ2-NO3)](NO3)}n (2), {[Cu(cyclam)(µ2-SO4)]·MeOH}n (3), {[Cu(cyclam)(µ2-SO4)]·5H2O}n (4), [Cu(cyclen)(H2O)]SO4·2H2O (5), [Cu(cyclen)(H2O)]SO4·3H2O (6), [Cu(trien)(acv)](NO3)2·acv (7) and [Cu(trien)(acv)]SO4·0.71H2O (8). All these compounds have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and FT-IR spectroscopy. Our results reveal that the macrochelates Cu(cyclen)(2+) and Cu(cyclam)(2+) are unable to bind acv at an apical site. In contrast, the Cu(trien)(2+) complex has proved to be an efficient receptor for acv in compounds (7) and (8). In the ternary complex [Cu(trien)(acv)](2+), the metal binding pattern of acv consists of an apical Cu-N7 bond assisted by an intra-molecular (primary amino)N-Hâ¯O6(acv) interligand interaction. Structural comparisons reveal that this unprecedented apical role of acv is due to the acyclic nature of trien together with the ability of the Cu(trien)(2+) chelate to generate five-coordinated (type 4+1) copper(II) complexes.

Five novel ternary copper(II) complexes with the N,O2,S-tripodal tetradentate chelators N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)-S-benzylcysteaminate(2-) ion (BCBC) or N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(carboxymethyl)cystaminate(4-) ion (TCC) and adenine (Hade), 2,6-diaminopurine (Hdap), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) as co-ligand were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction and other physical methods: [Cu2(BCBC)2(µ2-N3,N7-H(N9)ade)(H2O)2]·H2O (1), [Cu2(BCBC)2(µ2-N7,N9-H(N3)dap)(H2O)2]·4H2O (2), [Cu2(µ2-TCC)(H(N9)ade)2(H2O)2]·10H2O (3), [Cu2(µ2-TCC)(bpy)2]·15H2O (4) and [Cu2(µ2-TCC)(phen)2]·14H2O (5). The crystal structure of H4TCC·3H2O was also determined. All ternary Cu(II) complexes have molecular structures. The N-(2-mercaptoethyl)-iminodiacetate moieties of BCBC or TCC ligands play a NO2+S-tripodal tetradentate role, with the S-(thioether or disulfide) atom as the apical/distal donor of the copper(II) center. In 1-3, the iminodiacetate moiety exhibits a mer-NO2 conformation (two nearly coplanar chelate rings) while in 4 and 5 (with bpy or phen as coligand) it displays a fac-NO+O (apical/distal) conformation. We conclude that the formation of the Cu-S(thioether or disulfide) bonds is strongly favored by the N-branched topology of the S-ligands in the reported compounds.

High stability of the complexes formed at physiological pH is one of the basic requisites that a good iron chelator must possess. At the same time the chelating agent must be selective toward iron, i.e., the stability of iron complexes must be significantly higher than that of the complexes formed with essential metal ions, in order that these last ones do not perturb iron chelation. In the frame of our research on iron chelators we have designed and synthesized a series of tetradentate derivatives of kojic acid, and examined their binding properties toward Fe(3+) and Al(3+). In this paper, for a characterization of the behavior of the proposed iron chelating agents in biological fluids, their complex formation equilibria with copper(II) and zinc(II) ions have been fully characterized together with a speciation study, showing the degree at which the iron chelators interfere with the homeostatic equilibria of these two essential metal ions.

Attention is devoted to the role of chelating agents in the treatment of aluminium related diseases. In fact, in spite of the efforts that have drastically reduced the occurrence of aluminium dialysis diseases, they so far constitute a cause of great medical concern. The use of chelating agents for iron and aluminium in different clinical applications has found increasing attention in the last thirty years. With the aim of designing new chelators, we synthesized a series of kojic acid derivatives containing two kojic units joined by different linkers. A huge advantage of these molecules is that they are cheap and easy to produce. Previous works on complex formation equilibria of a first group of these ligands with iron and aluminium highlighted extremely good pMe values and gave evidence of the ability to scavenge iron from inside cells. On these bases a second set of bis-kojic ligands, whose linkers between the kojic chelating moieties are differentiated both in terms of type and size, has been designed, synthesized and characterized. The aluminium(III) complex formation equilibria studied by potentiometry, electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS), quantum-mechanical calculations and (1)H NMR spectroscopy are here described and discussed, and the structural characterization of one of these new ligands is presented. The in vivo studies show that these new bis-kojic derivatives induce faster clearance from main organs as compared with the monomeric analog.

This work reports the synthesis, characterization and study of complex formation equilibria of the new ligand 6,6'-(2-(diethylamino)ethylazanediyl)bis(methylene)bis(5-hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-4H-pyran-4-one) with Fe(III), Al(III), Cu(II) and Zn(II). On the basis of previous encouraging results with tetradentate bis-kojic acid chelators, this ligand was designed to improve the pharmacokinetic properties: increase the solubility, neutral at physiological pH7.4, and enhancement of membrane crossing ability. Fe(III) and Al(III) complexation gave evidence of high metal-sequestering capacity of L9. Cellular assays showed that the ligand is capable of crossing cellular membranes and it does not present toxic effects. Complex formation equilibria with the essential metal ions Cu(II) and Zn(II) have been furthermore studied to evaluate disturbances of this chelator on the homeostatic equilibria of these essential metal ions. A variety of techniques (potentiometry, UV-visible spectrophotometry, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, ESI-MS (electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry), quantum mechanical calculations and X-ray diffraction) have facilitated the characterization of the ligand, and the corresponding iron and zinc complexes, together with an exhaustive analysis of the protonation and complex equilibria.

This chapter provides a review of the literature on structural information from crystal structures determined by X-ray diffractometry of cadmium(II) complexes containing ligands of potential biological interest. These ligands fall into three broad classes, (i) those containing N-donors such as purine or pyrimidine bases and derivatives of adenine, guanine or cytosine, (ii) those containing carboxylate groups such as α-amino acids, in particular the twenty essential ones, the water soluble vitamins (B-complex) or the polycarboxylates of EDTA type ligands, and (iii) S-donors such as thiols/thiolates or dithiocarbamates. A crystal and molecular structural analysis has been carried out for some representative complexes of these ligands, specifically addressing the coordination mode of ligands, the coordination environment of cadmium and, in some significant cases, the intermolecular interactions.

For a better understanding of the versatile behaviour of adenine as a ligand, a series of 10 ternary copper(II) complexes with deaza-adenine ligands [7-azaindole (1,6,7-trideaza-adenine, H7azain), 4-azabenzimidazole (1,6-dideaza-adenine, H4abim), 5-azabenzimidazole (3,6-dideaza-adenine, H5abim), and 7-deaza-adenine (H7deaA)] have been synthesised and characterised by X-ray diffraction. Likewise, all the compounds studied have been analysed by spectral and thermal methods. The proton tautomers and donor capabilities of the above-mentioned deaza-adenine ligands have been calculated by DFT. We conclude that the increasing presence of N-donors in deaza-adenine ligands favours the proton tautomerism and their versatility as co-ligands. Notably, H7azain consistently uses the same tautomer, H4abim uses two different tautomers but is not protonated by the pentadentate H(2)EDTA(2-) ligand, and H(N1)5abim displays the µ(2)-N7,N9 mode, whereas H(N9)7deaA binds Cu(II) by N3 in cooperation with an intra-molecular N9-H···O interaction or using the unprecedented bidentate µ(2)-N1,N3 bridging mode.

For a better understanding of the metal binding pattern of N(6)-substituted adenines, six novel ternary Cu(II) complexes have been structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction: [Cu(NBzIDA)(HCy5ade)(H2O)]·H2O (1), [Cu(NBzIDA)(HCy6ade)(H2O)]·H2O (2), [Cu(FurIDA)(HCy6ade)(H2O)]·H2O (3), [Cu(MEBIDA)(HBAP)(H2O)]·H2O (4), [Cu(FurIDA)(HBAP)]n (5) and {[Cu(NBzIDA)(HdimAP)]·H2O}n (6). In these compounds NBzIDA, FurIDA and MEBIDA are N-substituted iminodiacetates with a non-coordinating aryl-methyl pendant arm (benzyl in NBzIDA, p-tolyl in MEBIDA and furfuryl in FurIDA) whereas HBAP, HCy5ade, HCy6ade and HdimAP are N(6)-substituted adenine derivatives with a N-benzyl, N-cyclopentyl, N-cyclohexyl or two N-methyl groups, respectively. Regardless of the molecular (1-4) or polymeric (5-6) nature of the studied compounds, the Cu(II) centre exhibits a type 4+1 coordination where the tridentate IDA-like chelators adopt a mer-conformation. In 1-5 the N(6)-R-adenines use their most stable tautomer H(N9)adenine-like, and molecular recognition consists of the cooperation of the CuN3(purine) bond and the intra-molecular interligand N9H···O(coordinated carboxy) interaction. In contrast, N(6),N(6)-dimethyl-adenine shows the rare tautomer H(N3)dimAP in 6, so that the molecular recognition with the Cu(NBzIDA) chelate consist of the CuN9 bond and the N3H···O intra-molecular interligand interaction. Contrastingly to the cytokinin activity found in the free ligands HBAP (natural cytokinin), HCy5ade and HCy6ade, the corresponding Cu(II) ternary complexes did not show any activity.
