Abstract The preparation and characterization of the new complexes trans -[PtCl4(NH3)(3-picolinic acid)] (1), trans -[PtCl4{NH2CH(CH3)2}(3-picolinic acid)] (2), trans -[PtCl4(NH3)(4-picolinic acid)] (3), and trans -[PtCl4{NH2CH(CH3)2}(4-picolinic acid)] (4) are described. The main structural feature of these complexes is the presence of ligands capable of multiple hydrogen-bonding interactions. Crystals of 1, 2, 3, and 4 suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction were grown, and the molecular structures of these compounds are discussed. In contrast to the inactive parent PtII complexes, the PtIV complexes displayed cytotoxic activity against various cancer cell lines used at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) for in vitro screens. Once more, the isopropylamine derivatives showed the best cytotoxicity values. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2008) [source]


Synthesis and Properties of Organometallic PtII and PtIV Complexes with Acyclic Selenoether and Telluroether Ligands and Selenoether Macrocycles

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 21 2006
William Levason
Abstract The first series of planar dimethyl(selenoether)PtII complexes, [PtMe2L] [L = MeSe(CH2)nSeMe (n = 2 or 3), o -C6H4(CH2SeMe)2, [8]aneSe2 (1,5-diselenacyclooctane), or [16]aneSe4 (1,5,9,13-tetraselenacyclohexadecane)], have been obtained by treatment of [PtMe2(SMe2)2] with L in Et2O solution and characterised by VT 1H, 13C{1H}, 77Se{1H} and 195Pt{1H} NMR spectroscopy, electrospray MS and microanalysis. The corresponding dimethyl(telluroether)PtII complexes do not form under similar reaction conditions. The distorted octahedral [PtMe3I(L)] [L = o -C6H4(CH2SeMe)2, [8]aneSe2, [16]aneSe4 or MeC(CH2SeMe)3] form as stable complexes in good yield from reaction of PtMe3I with L in refluxing CHCl3 and have been characterised similarly. These all show bidentate selenoether coordination, with fast pyramidal inversion occurring at room temperature. The distorted octahedral coordination environment at PtIV is also confirmed from a crystal structure of [PtMe3I{o -C6H4(CH2SeMe)2}]. Rare examples of (telluroether)PtIV complexes, [PtMe3I{o -C6H4(CH2TeMe)2}] and the dinuclear [Me3Pt(,2 -I)2(,2 -MeTeCH2TeMe)PtMe3], have also been prepared and characterised similarly (and also by 125Te{1H} NMR spectroscopy). The [8]aneSe2 and [16]aneSe4 species are the first examples of alkyl PtII or PtIV complexes with (macro)cyclic selenoether coordination. Halide abstraction (TlPF6) from [PtMe3I(,2 -[16]aneSe4)] affords [PtMe3(,3 -[16]aneSe4)]PF6; a rare example of a cationic PtIV selenoether. The (diselenoether)PtII complexes undergo oxidative addition of MeI to yield the corresponding PtIV species [PtMe3I(diselenoether)]. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

NMR Study of L-Shaped (Quinoxaline)platinum(II) Complexes , Crystal Structure of [Pt(DMeDPQ)(bipy)](PF6)2

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 23 2004
Enrico Rotondo
Abstract A 1H and 13C NMR study of nine PtII complexes of DMeDPQ [6,7-dimethyl-2,3-bis(2-pyridyl)quinoxaline] and BDPQ [2,3-bis(2-pyridyl)benzo[g]quinoxaline], and the crystal structure of one of them, are reported. The results are consistent with Cs symmetry of "L-shaped square-planar complexes". The rigid seven-membered chelated quinoxaline ligand holds the fused aromatic rings nearly perpendicular to the PtII coordination plane, generating the peculiar L-shaped structure. Ancillary ligands in the residual coordination sites are: a) bidentate flexible-planar 2,2,-bipyridine (bipy; complexes 1 and 2); b) bidentate rigid-planar dipyrido[3,2- a:2,3,- c]phenazine (dppz) or benzo[b]dipyrido[3,2- h:2,,3,- j]phenazine (bdppz; complexes 3,6); or c) 3-substituted monodentate pyridines (3-Rpy; complexes 7,9). The L-shaped geometry has been exploited to gain insight into the steric and dynamic features that regulate the noncovalent interactions of these square-planar complexes with DNA. We have shown previously, for [Pt(bipy)(n -Rpy)2]2+, that bipy twisting can be frozen out on the NMR timescale below 260 K. Preservation of the Cs symmetry at low temperature indicates a lack of bipy fluxionality within these L-shaped structures. The static butterfly-like symmetric orientation of the quinoxaline pyridyl rings accounts for the hampered twisting of Pt(bipy), which is otherwise assisted by the synchronous "windscreen wiper" conrotatory rocking of the ancillary pyridine rings. The L-geometry can also be used to monitor the ancillary n -Rpy rotation by NMR spectroscopy. The quasi-vertical quinoxaline pyridyl rings alignment leave room in the coordination plane for the crossing of the opposite pyridine rings, thereby reducing their rotational barriers about the Pt,N bond.

Tuning the Energy Level and Photophysical and Electroluminescent Properties of Heavy Metal Complexes by Controlling the Ligation of the Metal with the Carbon of the Carbazole Unit,

ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 4 2007
L. Yang
Abstract Four novel IrIII and PtII complexes with cyclometalated ligands bearing a carbazole framework are prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of complexes 1, 3, and 4 reveal that the 3- or 2-position C atom of the carbazole unit coordinates to the metal center. The difference in the ligation position results in significant shifts in the emission spectra with the changes in wavelength being 84,nm for the Ir complexes and 63,nm for the Pt complexes. The electrochemical behavior and photophysical properties of the complexes are investigated, and correlate well with the results of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Electroluminescent devices with a configuration of ITO/NPB/CBP:dopant/BCP/AlQ3/LiF/Al can attain very high efficiencies. [source]


Evaluation of binding selectivities and affinities of platinum-based quadruplex interactive complexes by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

BIOPOLYMERS, Issue 4 2009
Sarah E. Pierce
Abstract The quadruplex binding affinities and selectivities of two large ,-surface PtII phenanthroimidazole complexes, as well as a smaller ,-surface platinum bipyridine complex and a larger RuII complex, were evaluated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy was used to determine the structures of various quadruplexes and to study the thermal denaturation of the quadruplexes in the absence and presence of the metal complexes. In addition, chemical probe reactions with glyoxal were used to monitor the changes in the quadruplex conformation because of association with the complexes. The platinum phenanthroimidazole complexes show increased affinity for several of the quadruplexes with elongated loops between guanine repeats. Quadruplexes with shorter loops exhibited insubstantial binding to the transition metal complexes. Similarly binding to duplex and single strand oligonucleotides was low overall. Although the ruthenium-based metal complex showed somewhat enhanced quadruplex binding, the PtII complexes had higher quadruplex affinities and selectivities that are attributed to their square planar geometries. The chemical probe reactions using glyoxal indicated increased reactivity when the platinum phenanthroimidazole complexes were bound to the quadruplexes, thus suggesting a conformational change that alters guanine accessibility. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and Characterisation of ,3 -Octahedral [Ni36Pd8(CO)48]6, and [Ni35Pt9(CO)48]6, Clusters Displaying Unexpected Surface Segregation of Pt Atoms and Molecular and/or Crystal Substitutional Ni/Pd and Ni/Pt Disorder

Abstract The synthesis and structure, as well as the chemical and electrochemical characterisation of two new ,3 -octahedral bimetallic clusters with the general [Ni44,xMx(CO)48]6, (M = Pd, x = 8; M = Pt, x = 9) formula is reported. The [Ni35Pt9(CO)48]6, cluster was obtained in reasonable yields (56,% based on Pt) by reaction of [Ni6(CO)12]2, with 1.1 equivalents of PtII complexes, in ethyl acetate or THF as the solvent. The [Ni36Pd8(CO)48]6, cluster was obtained from the related reaction with PdII salts in THF, and was isolated only in low yields (5,10,% based on Pd), mainly because of insufficient differential solubility of its salts. The unit cell of the [NBu4]6[Ni35Pt9(CO)48] salt contains a substitutionally Ni,Pt disordered [Ni24(Ni14,xPtx)Pt6(CO)48]6, (x = 3) hexaanion. A combination of crystal and molecular disorder is necessary to explain the disordering observed for the Ni/Pt sites. The unit cell of the corresponding [Ni36Pd8(CO)48]6, salt contains two independent [Ni30(Ni8,xPdx)Pd6(CO)48]6, (x = 2) hexaanions. The two display similar substitutional Ni,Pd disorder, which probably arises only from crystal disorder. The structure of [Ni36Pd8(CO)48]6, establishes the first similarity between the chemistry of Ni-Pd and Ni-Pt carbonyl clusters. A comparison of the chemical and electrochemical properties of [Ni35Pt9(CO)48]6, with those of the related [Ni38Pt6(CO)48]6, cluster shows that surface colouring of the latter with Pt atoms decreases redox as well as protonation propensity of the cluster. In contrast, substitution of all internal Pt and two surface Ni with Pd atoms preserves the protonation behaviour and is only detrimental with respect to its redox aptitude. A qualitative rationalisation of the different surface-site selectivity of Pt and Pd, based on distinctive interplays of MM and MCO bond energies, is suggested. [source]
