The results showed that there are 4.7×10 2 binding sites of cisplatin(CDDP) in a spectrin tetramer(SPT). Among them, about 70 sites with apparent binding constant K 1】3.47×10 6 were of highest affinity, 1.8×10 2 sites with K 2 = 3.47×10 6 were of high affinity, and other 2.2×10 2 sites with K 3 = 8.77×10 5 were of low affinity. The conformation change of spectrin, depending on the concentration of Pt(II) complex and molar ratio(R) of Pt(II) complex to spectrin, was induced by the binding of Pt(II) complexes. It indicated that the interaction of both CDDP and cis diaquodiamine platinum(DADP) with SP followed a two step first order kinetic process in the first stage (1 h), and the kinetic constants were determined. In the second stage, the induced conformation change, polymerization and depolymerization of SP were probably involved. It was noticed that in the reaction of SP and Pt(II) complexes with 1,2 cyclohexanediammine isomers as chiral carrier ligand, stereo matching played a more important role than the affinity of Pt(II) to thiol groups of SP.展开更多

Novel polymeric Cu<sup>2+</sup> complexes derived from the reaction of cyanoacetylhydrazine (<strong>CAH</strong>;<strong>L</strong>) with CuCl<sub>2</sub>•2H<sub>...Novel polymeric Cu<sup>2+</sup> complexes derived from the reaction of cyanoacetylhydrazine (<strong>CAH</strong>;<strong>L</strong>) with CuCl<sub>2</sub>•2H<sub>2</sub>O in different solvents were synthesized and characterized. The isolated solid polymeric complexes were investigated using modern conventional physicochemical and spectral (IR, <sup>1</sup>H-NMR, UV-Vis. ESR, Raman), magnetic and thermal studies. The results revealed that <strong>CAH</strong> behaves in different ways towards the coordination of the Cu<sup>2+</sup> ion. The promotion of solvents to the cyano group was discussed on the basis of the solvent and the Cu<sup>2+</sup> ion used. Magnetic and spectral studies suggest octahedral geometry is proposed for the Cu<sup>2+</sup> complexes. EPR studies indicate the existence of polymeric complexes depending on the results of <i>g</i>-values. The results suggest that the number of copper atoms ranges from three to twelve atoms. The molecular modeling is drawn and some chemical characteristics are calculated such as chemical reactivity and energy components are investigated between the different types of the ligands.展开更多

The experimentalresults show that across-membrane transport of all the platinum complexes studied follows a firstorder Kinetic process and a passive diffustion mechanism. The uptake rate constants of these platinum(II)complexes decrease in the following sequence with the k value(h-1):CI>SA>OX>DA. It isnoteworthy that the k values of the platinum(II)complexes with same leaving group reduce as: 1R,2R-dach>1R,2S-dach>1S,2S-dach. Based on these results, it is firstly suggested that the erythocytemembrane recognizes the chirality of these platinum complexes.展开更多

We have prepared several new and known chiral Schiff base Zn(II) complexes and measured (and also calculated) absorption and fluorescence spectra for sole complexes. After assembling hybrid systems with 1,3,3-trime- thylindolino-6’-nitrobenzopyrylospiran (SP) in methanol solutions, we measured spectral changes before and after alternate irradiation of UV and visible light. Intensity of fluorescence spectra for pale yellow Zn(II) complexes (λem = 450 nm, λex = 270 and 360 nm) was quenched by colorless SP (λem = 533 nm, λex = 612 nm). After UV light irradiation to form purple merocyanine (MC), photoisomerization resulted in changes of the intensity of absorption spectra as well as fluorescence spectra. Thus the hybrid systems could successfully act as molecular logic circuit by input (excitation by light) and output (intensity of fluorescence peaks). Moreover, we investigated concentration dependence of doped Zn(II) and Cu(II) ions to confirm quenching of intensity of fluorescence peaks by Zn(II) and Cu(II) MC complexes for metal ion sensing in solutions.展开更多

The complexes each contains two types of octahedral high-spin cobalt(II) ions (CoA and CoB) in the shape of an isosceles triangle (CoA1–CoB–CoA2), and the contribution of the orbital angular momentum is significant. The exchange interaction between the CoA and CoB ions is practically negligible (J = ~ 0), whereas the interaction between the CoA1 and CoA2 ions is ferromagnetic (J’ > 0) for both complexes.展开更多

Chelation was investigated based on elemental analysis, conductivity, magnetic moment, spectral (UV-Vis, IR, Raman, 1HNMR, mass), thermal, and ESR studies. The Raman and infrared spectral studies suggests the tridentate behavior of the ligand from each tail. Since the ligand has two thiose- micarbazide groups, it may acts in an SNO tridentate fashion from each side with one of the two metal ions forming a polynuclear complex coordinating through both of the lone pair of electrons the enolic oxygen of the carbonyl group (C=O), the azomethine nitrogen (C=N) and the thioenol form of the thiocarbonyl group (C=S). The differential thermogravimetric analysis (DTG) curves were used to study the decomposition steps of the isolated complexes using Horowitz-Metzger (HM) and Coats-Redfern (CR) methods. The kinetic thermodynamic parameters such as: E*, ΔH*, ΔS*and ΔG* are calculated from the DTG curves.展开更多

The c...Photoinduced electron transfer reaction between the excited state ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes and quinones has been investigated in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide using luminescent quenching techniques. The complexes have the absorption and emission maximum in the range 452 - 468 nm and 594 - 617 nm respectively. The static nature of quenching is confirmed from the ground state absorption studies. The association constants for the complexes with quinones are calculated from the Benesi-Hildebrand plots using absorption spectral data. The value of quenching rate constant (kq) is highly sensitive to the nature of the ligand and the quencher, the medium, structure and size of the quenchers. Compared to the aqueous medium, the electron transfer rate is altered in CTAB medium. The oxidative nature of the quenching is confirmed by the formation of Ru3+ ion and quinone anion radical.展开更多

These compounds were characterized by elemental and thermal analyses, IR, 1HNMR and 13CNMR spectroscopies, single crystal X-ray diffraction and DFT studies. The Zn centers in 1 and 2 adopt pseudo-tetrahedral coordination geometries. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system P2/c space group whereas compound 2 crystallizes in the P-1 space group of the triclinic crystal system. Several types of hydrogen intra-/intermolecular interactions are observed in these materials and extend into a two-dimensional leaf like network in 1 and a two-dimensional lattice of rectilinear pillars in 2. Compounds 1 and 2 were also optimized and their frontier molecular orbitals, global reactivity descriptors, molecular electrostatic potential, natural bond orbitals were investigated using density functional theory (DFT). In fact the induced structural differences from complex 1 to complex 2 led to the reduction of the frontier molecular orbital energy gap by 1.338 eV and a decrease of the chemical hardness by 0.669 eV.展开更多

文摘The interactions between human erythrocyte spectrin(SP) and Pt(II) complexes with different composition and configuration were studied by fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra. The results showed that there are 4.7×10 2 binding sites of cisplatin(CDDP) in a spectrin tetramer(SPT). Among them, about 70 sites with apparent binding constant K 1】3.47×10 6 were of highest affinity, 1.8×10 2 sites with K 2 = 3.47×10 6 were of high affinity, and other 2.2×10 2 sites with K 3 = 8.77×10 5 were of low affinity. The conformation change of spectrin, depending on the concentration of Pt(II) complex and molar ratio(R) of Pt(II) complex to spectrin, was induced by the binding of Pt(II) complexes. It indicated that the interaction of both CDDP and cis diaquodiamine platinum(DADP) with SP followed a two step first order kinetic process in the first stage (1 h), and the kinetic constants were determined. In the second stage, the induced conformation change, polymerization and depolymerization of SP were probably involved. It was noticed that in the reaction of SP and Pt(II) complexes with 1,2 cyclohexanediammine isomers as chiral carrier ligand, stereo matching played a more important role than the affinity of Pt(II) to thiol groups of SP.

文摘Novel polymeric Cu<sup>2+</sup> complexes derived from the reaction of cyanoacetylhydrazine (<strong>CAH</strong>;<strong>L</strong>) with CuCl<sub>2</sub>•2H<sub>2</sub>O in different solvents were synthesized and characterized. The isolated solid polymeric complexes were investigated using modern conventional physicochemical and spectral (IR, <sup>1</sup>H-NMR, UV-Vis. ESR, Raman), magnetic and thermal studies. The results revealed that <strong>CAH</strong> behaves in different ways towards the coordination of the Cu<sup>2+</sup> ion. The promotion of solvents to the cyano group was discussed on the basis of the solvent and the Cu<sup>2+</sup> ion used. Magnetic and spectral studies suggest octahedral geometry is proposed for the Cu<sup>2+</sup> complexes. EPR studies indicate the existence of polymeric complexes depending on the results of <i>g</i>-values. The results suggest that the number of copper atoms ranges from three to twelve atoms. The molecular modeling is drawn and some chemical characteristics are calculated such as chemical reactivity and energy components are investigated between the different types of the ligands.

文摘Background:Pig organ xenotransplantation is a potential solution for the severe organ shortage in clinic,while immunogenic genes need to be eliminated to im-prove the immune compatibility between humans and pigs.Current knockout strat-egies are mainly aimed at the genes causing hyperacute immune rejection(HAR)that occurs in the first few hours while adaptive immune reactions orchestrated by CD4 T cell thereafter also cause graft failure,in which process the MHC II molecule plays critical roles.Methods:Thus,we generate a 4-gene(GGTA1,CMAH,β4GalNT2,and CIITA)knockout pig by CRISPR/Cas9 and somatic cell nuclear transfer to compromise HAR and CD4 T cell reactions simultaneously.Results:We successfully obtained 4KO piglets with deficiency in all alleles of genes,and at cellular and tissue levels.Additionally,the safety of our animals after gene editing was verified by using whole-genome sequencing and karyotyping.Piglets have survived for more than one year in the barrier,and also survived for more than 3 months in the conventional environment,suggesting that the piglets without MHC II can be raised in the barrier and then gradually mated in the conventional environment.Conclusions:4KO piglets have lower immunogenicity,are safe in genomic level,and are easier to breed than the model with both MHC I and II deletion.

文摘The title complex, [Mn2(O-Py3A)(DPK-CH3O)(CH3OH)]2?2ClO4?4CH3OH (C64H70Cl2- Mn4N12O22, Py3AH = N-(bis(2?-pyridyl)methyl)-2-pyridinecarboxamide, DPK = di-2-pyridyl ketone) has been synthesized and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with a = 12.667(9), b = 16.793(12), c = 17.070(13) ?, β = 100.997(13)o, V = 3565(5) ?3, Dc = 1.537 g/cm3, Mr = 1649.98, Z = 2, μ(MoKα) = 0.851 mm-1 and F(000) = 1696.

In the tetranuclear complex, each Mn(II) atom is six-coordinated and the four Mn(II) atoms are coplanar, exhibiting a parallelogram arrangement; while the deprotonated ligands are oxidized to O-Py3A2- anions and cleaved to DPK-CH3O– anions (the monoanion of mono- methylated diol of DPK) furthermore.
文摘The uptake kinetics of platinum(II)complexes of 1,2 -diaminocyclohexane(dach)isomers(1R,2R-dach, 1R,2S-dach. 1S,2S-dach) with various leaving groups, Chloride(CI), oxalate (OX),squaric acid(SA), and demethylcantharic acid (DA) was studied in the plasma isotonic buffer. The experimentalresults show that across-membrane transport of all the platinum complexes studied follows a firstorder Kinetic process and a passive diffustion mechanism. The uptake rate constants of these platinum(II)complexes decrease in the following sequence with the k value(h-1):CI>SA>OX>DA. It isnoteworthy that the k values of the platinum(II)complexes with same leaving group reduce as: 1R,2R-dach>1R,2S-dach>1S,2S-dach. Based on these results, it is firstly suggested that the erythocytemembrane recognizes the chirality of these platinum complexes.
文摘The synthesis and structural characterization of cobalt(II) complexes of amino acid Schiff bases was prepared from Salicylaldehyde and three amino acid (Valine, Leucine, and Isoleucine)?in basic medium. The metal complexes was synthesized by treating an ethanolic solution of the ligand with appropriate amount of metal salts [1:2] [M:L] ratio. The synthesized Schiff bases and their metal complexes have been investigated on the bases of elemental chemical analysis, FTIR, electronic spectral,?1HNMR,?13CNMR, MS, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The electronic spectra of the metal complexes and their magnetic susceptibility measurements suggest octahedral structures are the probable coordination geometries for the isolated complexes. The Schiff bases and their metal complexes were preliminary scanned against various strains of microbes to study their biological effect.
文摘This is a review article including our recent results and some previous photo functional hybrid system having potential applications for environmental ion sensing. We have prepared several new and known chiral Schiff base Zn(II) complexes and measured (and also calculated) absorption and fluorescence spectra for sole complexes. After assembling hybrid systems with 1,3,3-trime- thylindolino-6’-nitrobenzopyrylospiran (SP) in methanol solutions, we measured spectral changes before and after alternate irradiation of UV and visible light. Intensity of fluorescence spectra for pale yellow Zn(II) complexes (λem = 450 nm, λex = 270 and 360 nm) was quenched by colorless SP (λem = 533 nm, λex = 612 nm). After UV light irradiation to form purple merocyanine (MC), photoisomerization resulted in changes of the intensity of absorption spectra as well as fluorescence spectra. Thus the hybrid systems could successfully act as molecular logic circuit by input (excitation by light) and output (intensity of fluorescence peaks). Moreover, we investigated concentration dependence of doped Zn(II) and Cu(II) ions to confirm quenching of intensity of fluorescence peaks by Zn(II) and Cu(II) MC complexes for metal ion sensing in solutions.
文摘The observed magnetic data for two isosceles tricobalt(II) complexes have been successfully analyzed, considering the axial distortion around each cobalt(II) ion, the local spin-orbit coupling, the anisotropic exchange interactions, and the intermolecular exchange interactions. The complexes each contains two types of octahedral high-spin cobalt(II) ions (CoA and CoB) in the shape of an isosceles triangle (CoA1–CoB–CoA2), and the contribution of the orbital angular momentum is significant. The exchange interaction between the CoA and CoB ions is practically negligible (J = ~ 0), whereas the interaction between the CoA1 and CoA2 ions is ferromagnetic (J’ > 0) for both complexes.
文摘Anodic oxidation of Co, Cu, Zn, and Sn metals in an acetone solution of 1,1-malonayl-bis(4-p- Chlorophenylthiosemicarbazide) yields complexes of composition with general formula [Co2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6]·2H2O, [Cu2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6], [Zn2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6] and [Sn2(pClMaTS)(H2O)6]·2H2O. Chelation was investigated based on elemental analysis, conductivity, magnetic moment, spectral (UV-Vis, IR, Raman, 1HNMR, mass), thermal, and ESR studies. The Raman and infrared spectral studies suggests the tridentate behavior of the ligand from each tail. Since the ligand has two thiose- micarbazide groups, it may acts in an SNO tridentate fashion from each side with one of the two metal ions forming a polynuclear complex coordinating through both of the lone pair of electrons the enolic oxygen of the carbonyl group (C=O), the azomethine nitrogen (C=N) and the thioenol form of the thiocarbonyl group (C=S). The differential thermogravimetric analysis (DTG) curves were used to study the decomposition steps of the isolated complexes using Horowitz-Metzger (HM) and Coats-Redfern (CR) methods. The kinetic thermodynamic parameters such as: E*, ΔH*, ΔS*and ΔG* are calculated from the DTG curves.
文摘Photoinduced electron transfer reaction between the excited state ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes and quinones has been investigated in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide using luminescent quenching techniques. The complexes have the absorption and emission maximum in the range 452 - 468 nm and 594 - 617 nm respectively. The static nature of quenching is confirmed from the ground state absorption studies. The association constants for the complexes with quinones are calculated from the Benesi-Hildebrand plots using absorption spectral data. The value of quenching rate constant (kq) is highly sensitive to the nature of the ligand and the quencher, the medium, structure and size of the quenchers. Compared to the aqueous medium, the electron transfer rate is altered in CTAB medium. The oxidative nature of the quenching is confirmed by the formation of Ru3+ ion and quinone anion radical.
文摘The synthesis and characterization of several hexa – coordinated Ru(II) complexes of the type [Ru(CO)(B)(L)] (B = PPh3/AsPh3/py/pip;L = di-basic tetradentate ligand derived from the condensation of isatin with diamines) were reported. IR, electronic, 1H- NMR, 31P-NMR of the complexes are discussed. An octahedral geometry has been tentatively proposed for all these complexes. The new complexes have been tested for the catalytic activity in the reaction of oxidation of alcohols in the presence of N-me- thylmorpholine–N-oxide as co-oxidant. The new complexes were also exhibited antimicrobial investigations.
文摘Two novel coordination compounds, [Zn(L)2(OOCH)2] (1) and [Zn(L)3(OCHO)](OCHO)]·H2O (2) (where L = 2-isopropylimidazole, C6H10N2) have been prepared by reaction of 2-isopropylimidazole with zinc(II) formate at room temperature using toluene as solvent. These compounds were characterized by elemental and thermal analyses, IR, 1HNMR and 13CNMR spectroscopies, single crystal X-ray diffraction and DFT studies. The Zn centers in 1 and 2 adopt pseudo-tetrahedral coordination geometries. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system P2/c space group whereas compound 2 crystallizes in the P-1 space group of the triclinic crystal system. Several types of hydrogen intra-/intermolecular interactions are observed in these materials and extend into a two-dimensional leaf like network in 1 and a two-dimensional lattice of rectilinear pillars in 2. Compounds 1 and 2 were also optimized and their frontier molecular orbitals, global reactivity descriptors, molecular electrostatic potential, natural bond orbitals were investigated using density functional theory (DFT). In fact the induced structural differences from complex 1 to complex 2 led to the reduction of the frontier molecular orbital energy gap by 1.338 eV and a decrease of the chemical hardness by 0.669 eV.
文摘Using two new flexible and functional nitronyl nitroxide radicals as ligands, two copper (II) complexes {[Cu(hfac)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>3</sub>(NITmPhO3Py)<sub>2</sub>}<sub>n</sub> (1) and [Cu(hfac)<sub>2</sub><sub> </sub>(NIToPhO3Py)]<sub>2</sub> (2) (NITmPhO3Py = 2-[(3-methoxy-pyridinyl)phen-3-yl]- 4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide, NIToPhO3Py = 2-[(3-methoxy-pyridinyl)phen-2-ly]-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide, hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetone), have been characterized structurally and magnetically. The X-ray crystal analyses showed that complex 1 displayed a chain polymer structure which formed with {[Cu(hfac)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>3</sub>(NITmPhO3Py)<sub>2</sub>}<sub>n</sub> due to the cross-linking of two cyclic binuclear fragments {[Cu(hfac)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>2</sub>(NITmPhO3- Py)<sub>2</sub>} via the bridging unit [Cu(hfac)<sub>2</sub>];complex 2 presented a binuclear cyclic structure [Cu(hfac)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>2</sub>(NIToPhO3Py)<sub>2</sub>. The magnetic behaviors of the two complexes 1 and 2 have been investigated. Magnetic studies showed that antiferromagnetic interactions dominated in complex 1, while there existed ferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) and coordinated NO group in complex 2.
文摘Three new heterotrinuclear complexes have been synthesized and characterized, namely {[Gd(L)(2)](2)[Cu(pbaOH)]}(ClO4)(4), where pbaOH denotes 2-hydroxy-1,3-propylenebis(oxamato), L stands for 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (NO2-phen) or 2,2'-bipyridyl (bpy). The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of ([Gd(phen)(2)(ClO4)](2)[Cu(pbaOH)])(ClO4)(2) has been studied in the 4-300K range, giving the exchange integral J = 6.69 cm(-1). This indicates a weak ferromagnetic interaction between the copper(II) and gadolinium(III) ions.
