Ligand assisted copper-catalyzed Ullmann cross coupling reaction of bromaminic acid with amines

Three types of ligands have been developed for copper-catalyzed Ullmann cross coupling reaction of bromaminic acid with amines in aqueous solution. Ligands with large steric hindrance and strong electron-donating capacity were beneficial to the reaction. UV–Vis and CV analyses demonstrated that these ligands had strong coordination with copper(I), implying the effect of ligand coordination ability on the stability and catalytic activity of catalytic system.

Synthesis and thermal studies of mixed ligand complexes of Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II) with mercaptotriazoles and dehydroacetic acid

A series of new mixed ligand complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and cadmium(II) have been synthesized with 3benzyl1H4[(2 methoxybenzylidine) amino]1, 2, 4triazole5 thione (MBT), 3bezyl1H4[(4chlorobenzylidine) amino]1, 2, 4triazole5thione (CBT), 3benzyl 1H4[(4nitrobenzylidine)amino]1, 2, 4triazole 5thione (NBT) and dehydroacetic acid sodium salt (Nadha). The mixed ligand complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, spec troscopic spectral measurements (IR, UVVis.), molar conductance, magnetic measurements and thermal studies. The stoichiometry of these com plexes is M:L1:L2 = 1:1:1, 1:2:1 or 1:1:2 where L1 = NBT, CBT and MBT and L2 = Nadha. Tetrahedral structure was proposed for all Cd(II) mixed ligand complexes while the square planar geometry was proposed for Cu(II) mixed ligand complex with NBT. Octahedral structure was proposed for Ni(II), Co(II) mixed ligand complexes and Cu(II) mixed ligand complexes with CBT and MBT ligands. The thermal decomposition study of the prepared complexes was monitored by TG, DTG and DTA analysis in dynamic nitrogen atmosphere. TG, DTG and DTA studies confirmed the chemical formulations of theses complexes. The kinetic parameters were determined from the the thermal decomposition data using the graphical methods of CoatsRedfern and HorwitzMetzger. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated using standard relations.

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Antitumor Activity of a Novel Zn(Ⅱ)Complex with 2-(Nicotinoyloxy)acetic Acid Ligand

A novel Zn（Ⅱ） complex, [ZnL2（H2O）4]·H2O（1, HL = 2-（nicotinoyloxy）acetic acid）, was synthesized using Zn（OAc）2·2H2O and 2-（nicotinoyloxy）acetic acid as raw materials. Its structure has been elucidated by elemental analysis, IR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structural analysis revealed that complex 1 crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1 and the Zn（Ⅱ） atom is six-coordinated with two N atoms from two different 2-（nicotinoyloxy）acetate anion ligands and four O atoms from coordinated water molecules. Complex 1 forms a 3D network structure by O–H···O hydrogen bonds. The antitumor activities of 2-（nicotinoyloxy）acetic acid ligand and its Zn（Ⅱ） complex were evaluated against human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells, human hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells and human colon carcinoma Wi Dr cells.

Enantioselective extraction of mandelic acid enantiomers based on chiral ligand exchange

Based on the chiral ligand exchange, the distribution behavior of mandelic acid enantiomers, and the partition of Cu2+ at different pH values were studied in a water/alcohol two-phase system containing Cu2+ and N-n-（dodecyl-L-proline（A）.） The influences of the solvent sort, the pH value, the concentrations of Cu2+ and chiral ligand on the partition coefficient（K） and separation factor（α） were discussed. The experimental results show that the A formed has more stable ternary complex with D-mandelic acid enantiomer than with L-mandelic acid enantiomer. There is an important influence of the pH value on K and α. When the pH values are less than 3.5, the formation of binary complexes is thermodynamically unfavourable. K and α become maximum when pH values are above 3.5 and the molar ratio of the chiral ligand to Cu2+ is 2∶1.

A Pair of 3D Homochiral Coordination Polymers with Open Channels Constructed by Lactic Acid Derivative Ligands and In-situ Formed Anions

With the help of in-situ formed CH_3COO- anion, a pair of 3D homochiral coordination polymers with open channels were constructed by the assembly of lactic acid derivative ligands, 1.4-DIB ligands and Cd（II） ions, namely [Cd3（（R）-CIA）2（CH3CO2）_2（1.4-DIB）2（H2O）2]·x（Guest）（1-D） and [Cd3（（S）-CIA）2（CH3CO2）2（1.4-DIB）2（H2O）2]·x（Guest）（1-L）. They contain 1D interesting ladder-like Cd-（R）-CIA（3-） chains and exhibit SHG-active behavior and photoluminescent property.

Synthesis of Coordination Polymers Using Different Maleic Acid Ligands under Hydrothermal Conditions

A novel coordination polymer, [ Ni （mal） （1,10＇-phen） （ H2O） ] n （ 1 ） （ mal = malate, 1,10＇-phen = 1,10- phenanthroline） was synthesized using malic acid which was generated from maleic acid via hydrothermal reaction. Complex 1, which displays a two-dimensional supramolecular network, was formed by the addition reaction of Ni and maleic acid with water molecules. To our knowledge, several coordination polymers have been directly synthesized from malic acid, but these types of complexes have seldom been synthesized from maleic acid via hydrothermal reactions. When Ni（ Ⅱ ） ion was changed to Zn（ Ⅱ） ion under the same condition, two-dimensional covalent complex 2 [ Zn2 （fma） 2 （1,10＇-phen） 2 ] n （fma = fumatic acid） was formed. Furthermore, complex 2 exhibits intense photolumi- nescent property at room temperature.

The effects of eluent, column temperature, and central metal ions of the support on the separation are studied. The relationship between matrix structure of resins and their separation capacity is analysed.

Significance of Ligand Exchange Relating to Sulfate in Retarding Acidification of Variable Charge Soils Caused by Acid Rain

For the purpose of evaluating the role of ligand exchange of sulfate ions in retarding the rate of acidification of variable charge soils, the changes in pH after the addition of different amounts of HNO_3 or H_2SO_4 to representative soils of China were measured. A difrerence between pH changes caused by the two kinds of acids was observed only for variable charge soils and kaolinite, but not for consted charge soils and bentonite. The larger the proportion of H_2SO_4 in the HNO_3-H_2SO_4 mixture, the lower the calculated H￣+ ion activities remained in the suspension. The difference in H￣+ ion activities between H_2SO_4 systems and HNO_3 systems was larger for soils with a low base-saturation (BS) percentage than those with a high BS percentage. The removal of free iron oxides from the soil led to a decrease in the difference, while the coating of Fe_2O_3 ona bentonite resulted in a remarkable appearance of the difference. The effect of ligand exchange on the acidity status of the soil varied with the soil type. SurfaCe soils with a hash organic matter content showed a less pronounced effect of ligand exchange than subsoils did. It was estimated that when acid rain chiefly containing H_2SO_4 was deposited on variable charge soils the acidilication rate might be slower by 20%-40% than that when the acid rain chiefly contained HNO_3 for soils with a high organic matter content, and that the rate might be half of that caused by HNO_3 for soils with a low organic matter content, especially for latosols.

Syntheses of Coordination Compounds of 2-Amino-3-Methylbutanoic Acid Their Mixed Ligand Complexes and Antibacterial Activities

Coordination compounds of 2-amino-3-methylbutanoic acid were synthesized with chromium(III) and oxovanadium(IV) ions. M:L;1:2. Adducts of these complexes using 1,10-phenantroline and ethylenediamine were further synthesized, M:L, (1:2). These compounds were characterized using electronic, infra-red spectrophotometry, magnetic susceptibility measurement and percentage metal analyses. The zones of inhibition and minimum inhibitory concentrations of the compounds against eight microbes were studied. The results obtained indicated an octahedral geometry for the Cr(III) complexes, indicative of additional coordination of two water molecules. On the other hand a square pyramid geometry was obtained for the binary oxovanadium complex and its 1,10-phenantroline adduct. However, for the oxovanadium ethylenediamine adduct a distorted octahedral geometry was proposed. The result for the antibacterial studies indicated that both mixed ligand complexes of 1,10-phenantroline exhibited good antibacterial activity, and in some cases better activity than the standard, streptomycin.

Controlled Self-assembly of Two Coordination Polymers via subtly Varying Bis(2-methyl imidazole) Ligands:from 3-Connected(6,3) Net to 4-Connected sql Net

Two coordination polymers constructed from 3,4-thiophenedicarboxylic acid and bis（2-methyl imidazole） ligands, namely, {[Cd2（tdc）2（bip）2]·7H20}n （1） and [Cd（tdc）（bib）]n （2） （Hgtdc = 3,4-thiophenedicarboxylic acid, bip = 1,3-bis-（imidazol-2-methyl）propane and bib = 1,4-bis（imidazol-2-methyl）butane）, have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analyses reveal that 1 exhibits a two-dimensional （2D） layered network with 3-connected （6,3） topology, which is further connected into a three- dimensional （3D） supramolecular structure by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. However, 2 features a 2D network which can be rationalized as a 4-connected sql net. The results indicate the subtle difference of auxiliary bis（imidazol-2-methyl） ligands may lead to diverse architectures. Moreover, they exhibit luminescence emission in the solid state at room temperature.

Modification of Chiral Stationary Phases with L-Proline as a Selector for Ligand-exchange Chromatography via Introducing Hydrophobic Groups

Three chiral stationary phases（CSPl, CSP2 and CSP3） for ligand-exchange chromatography were prepared by firstly using dimethylchlorosilane as an endcapping reagent for decreasing residual silanol groups on the surface of silica gel, and then modifying the surface of silica gel with allyl glycidyl ether and alkenes through the hydrosilation reaction, and lastly introducing L-proline as a chiral selector. The enantiomer resolutions of 14 amino acids and 2 hydroxyl acids were completed on the CSPs by using an aqueous solution of Cu（Ac）2 as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and column temperature of 40 ℃ with detection at UV 254 nm. In terms of enantioseleetivity a, column efficiency and resolution Rs, the chromatographic behaviors of the analytes on the CSPs were discussed via comparing them to those on the CSP4 prepared via the reference method. The results show that enantioselectivity a, column efficiency and resolution Rs of the analytes on the CSPs could be improved by using the above modifying method.

Preparation of novel chiral stationary phase based on click chemistry for ligand exchange chromatography

Click chemistry was applied to immobilize L-proline derivative onto azide-modified silica gel to give a novel chiral stationary phase （denoted as click-CSP） for ligand exchange chromatography. The developed protocol combines the benefits of operational simplicity, exceptionally mild conditions and high surface loadings. The enantioselectivity α of some DL-arnino acids on the click- CSP were found to be in the range from 1.13 to 3.46. The chromatographic resolutions of some DL-amino acids and the stability study firmly illustrate the potential of click chemistry for preparation chiral stationary phase for ligand exchange chromatography.

A Novel Three-dimensional Mn(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer Constructed from Biphenyl-3,3',5,5'-tetracarboxylic Acid and Water

The title Mn（Ⅱ） coordination polymer,poly{[heptaaqua-（μ4-bi-phenyl-3,3？,5,5？-tetracarboxylate）-bimanganese（Ⅱ）] pentahydrate},[Mn_2（bpta）（H_2O）_7]_n·5n H_2O（I）,is crystallized from a mixture of biphenyl-3,3？,5,5？-tetracarboxylic acid（H_4bpta） and MnCl_2·4H_2O in waterethanol under room temperature. Its asymmetric unit consists of one and two halves of crystallographically independent Mn（Ⅱ） cations,one fully deprotonated H4 bpta ligand,seven coordinated water molecules and five solvent water as guest molecules. In I,each Mn（Ⅱ） atom is octahedrally coordinated by six oxygen atoms from bpta^（4-） anions and coordinated water molecules. In the Mn（Ⅱ） cations,one half Mn（Ⅱ） ion of them located at a 2-fold axis generating a trinuclear [Mn_3（H_2O）_2（RCOO）_2] linker by μ1,1-O（water） and μ1,3-O,O？（carboxylate） bridges and another half Mn（Ⅱ） ion with an inversion is a mononuclear linker. These neighbouring trinuclear and mononuclear Mn（Ⅱ） cations are linked together by biphenyl-3,3？,5,5？-tetracarboxylates to form a three-dimensional framework with a（42.84） topology of a（4,4）-connected net,in which the positions of the trinuclear [Mn_3（H_2O）_2（R-COO）_2] linker as a 4-connector linking four bpta^（4-） ligands in I reproduce an eagle-shaped arrangement. The polymeric structure exhibits a water channel with an accessible void of 797.1 ？~3,amounting to 15.7% of the total unit-cell volume. Each of the cavities in the network is occupied by solvent water molecules.

Three new hybrid organic/inorganic polymeric ligand-exchange chiral stationary phases were developed by radical chain transfer reaction and surface grafting on silica gel, and successfully used for the enantioseparations of DL-amino acids and DL-hydroxyl adds. The resolutions were achieved by using water containing 2.0 × 10^-4 mol/L of CuAc2 as a mobile phase, column temperature of 40 ℃, flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and detection at UV 254 nm. The elution order of D-isomer before L-isomer was observed for all DL-amino acids resolved except DL-Pro.

Binding of naturally occurring hydroxycinnamic acids to bovine serum albumin

Hydroxycinnamic acids (HCAs) possess numer- ous biological effects including antioxidant, antiallergic, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory activities and due to these properties are widely used in folk medicine. Nevertheless, they can interact with protein molecules and cause some structural and functional changes. The possib- ility of HCAs binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) under physiological conditions was inve- stigated by the UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy and fluorescence quenching method. Apart from rosmarinic acid, all tested HCAs quenched tryptophan fluorescence of BSA in the studied range of concentrations (0-20 μM) mainly by static quenching mechanism (formation of non- fluorescent HCA-BSA complexes). The binding constants, number of binding sites and free energy changes were determined. The binding affinities of HCAs were ranked in the order: chlorogenic acid > sinapic acid ≥ caffeic acid > ferulic acid > o-coumaric acid > p-coumaric acid ≥ m-coumaric acid, which was confirmed by spectral overlaps of BSA emission spectrum with absorption spectrum of HCA. All free energy changes possessed negative sign indicating the spontaneity of HCA-BSA interaction.
