Binary orotic acid metal complexes of Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II), and two mixed metals complexes of (Co(II), Ni(II)) and (Ni(II), Cu(II)) were synthesized and characterized by elemental an...Binary orotic acid metal complexes of Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II), and two mixed metals complexes of (Co(II), Ni(II)) and (Ni(II), Cu(II)) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility, and ESR spectra. The Analysis proved that the ligand has different coordination modes and the complexes were of octahedral, tetrahedral, and trigonal bipyramidal geometries. Molecular modeling techniques and quantum chemical methods have been performed for orotic acid to calculate charges, bond lengths, bond angles, dihedral angles, electronegativity (χ), chemical potential (μ), global hardness (η), softness (σ) and the electrophilicity index (ω). The thermal decomposition of the complexes was monitored by TGA, DTA, and DSC techniques under the N2 atmosphere. The thermal decomposition mechanisms of the complexes were suggested. The biological activity of orotic acid and some of the complexes are tested against antibacterial and antifungal organisms.展开更多

In addition, it can be taken up by erythrocytes and hepatocytes for conversion into uridine and for use in the pyrimidine recycling pathway. We discuss the link between dietary orotate and fatty liver in rats, and the potential for the alleviation of neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia. We address the development of orotate derivatives for application as anti-pyrimidine drugs, and of com- plexes with metal ions and organic cations to assist therapies of metabolic syndromes. Recent genetic data link human Miller syndrome to defects in the dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) gene, hence to depleted orotate production. Another defect in pyrimidine biosynthesis, the orotic aciduria arising in humans and cattle with a deficiency of UMP synthase (UMPS), has different symptoms. More recent work leads us to conclude that OA may have a role in regulating gene transcription.展开更多

A new complex of lanthanum orotate [La(C5H3N2O4)2(OH)(H2O)6 ]·2(C5H4N2O4)·9H2O was synthesized using a hydrothermal method.

The crystal structure was determined with help of single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The complex crystallized in orthorhombic system, Cmc2(1) space group. In the complex, the center lanthanum (Ⅲ) ion was nine-coordinated with coordination geometry of a distorted monocapped square antiprism, in which two of the nine coordinated oxygen atoms were from two orotate ligands in a monodentate mode, one oxygen atom from a hydroxyl, and the others from six coordinated water molecules. The mononuclear complex [La(C5H3N2O4)2(OH)(H2O)6 ]·2(C5H4N2O4)·9H2O was linked through the hydrogen bonds into an infinite supermolecular honeycomb structure.展开更多
