Abstract A new Cu(I) complex constructed by reaction of trithiocyanuric acid (ttc) and copper(II) perchlorate hexahydrate has been successfully synthesized by a slow sedimentation method in a DMF solvent at room temperature. The molecular structure of the compound was elucidated by MALDI-TOF MS, UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopy, DSC-TGA analysis and magnetic susceptibility measurement. The proposed structure was corroborated by a computational study carried out with the Gaussian09® and AIMAII® programs using the RB3LYP hybrid DFT functional with both 6-31G and Alhrich-TZV basis sets. The calculated vibrational frequencies values were compared with experimental FTIR values. Photophysical properties of the synthesized complex were evaluated by UV-Visible spectroscopy and compared with computed vertical excitation obtained from TDDFT. The theoretical vibrational frequencies and the UV-Vis spectra are in good agreement with the experimental values. Additionally, the Frontier Molecular Orbitals (HOMO - LUMO) and the Molecular Electrostatic Potential of the complex was calculated using same theoretical approximation. The results showed the interaction between three coordinated ligand atoms and the Cu(I) ion.

Resumen Un nuevo complejo de Cu(I) elaborado por la reacción de ácido cianúrico (ttc) y perclorato de cobre(II) hexahidrato se sintetizó exitosamente por medio de un método lento de sedimentación en un solvente de DMF a temperatura ambiente. La estructura molecular del compuesto se determinó utilizando MS de MALDI-TOF, la espectroscopia de UV-VIS y de FTIR, el análisis de DSC-TGA y el análisis magnético de susceptibilidad. La estructura propuesta se corroboró por medio de un estudio computacional usando los programas Gaussian09® y AIMAII®, utilizando el híbrido RB3LYP DFT con los equipos 6-31G y Alhrich-TZV. Se compararon los valores calculados de las frecuencias vibracionales con los valores experimentales de FTIR. Se evaluaron las características fotofísicas del complejo sintetizado usando espectroscopia UV-visible y se compararon con la vibración vertical obtenida de TDDFT. Las frecuencias teóricas vibracionales y los espectros UV-VIS coinciden con los valores experimentales. Además, se calcularon las órbitas moleculares (HOMO - LUMO) y el potencial electrostático molecular del complejo usando la misma aproximación teórica. Los resultados demostraron la interacción entre tres receptores de átomos coordinados y el ion del Cu(I).

Por lo cual se realizó, la síntesis y caracterización (UV, FT-IR, Raman, análisis elemental, RMN ¹H, 31P, 19F, COSY ¹H-¹H) de un cuadrado supramolecular de níquel (II) [7]. Este proceso se realizó, a partir de la síntesis del complejo inicial: [Ni(dppe)Cl2] [3], el cual fue sintetizado entre el cloruro de níquel [1] y difenilfosfino etano (dppe) [2]. Luego se realizó la síntesis del complejo de interés: [Ni(dppe)(TOF)2 ] [5], entre el complejo [3] y el trifluorometanosulfonato de plata (Ag-TOF) [4]. Finalmente el proceso de autoensamblaje se realizó entre el complejo [5] y el ligando orgánico 4,4'-bipiridina [6], los cuales actúan como vértice y arista respectivamente, en la estructura del cuadrado. De acuerdo a los diferentes análisis realizados, se encontró que el autoensamblaje generó una única especie supramolecular, siendo la especie cuadrada, la estructura termodinámica más probable.

The main interest of this research is to contribute to the development and understanding of supramolecular chemistry and molecular architectures, which are constructed by the self-assembly of supramolecular entities. Therefore, the synthesis and characterization (IR, UV, ¹H NMR, 31P, 19F, ¹H-¹H COSY) of a nickel (II) supramolecular square [7] was performed through the synthesis between nickel chloride [1]and diphenylphosphinoethane (dppe) [2] to form the precursor complex [Ni(dppe)Cl2] [3]. This was followed by the synthesis of the complex of interest, [Ni(dppe)(TOF)2] [5], using the precursor and silver trifluoromethanesulfonate (Ag-TOF). Finally, the self-assembly was performed between the complex [1,2-bis (diphenylphosphinoethane) bistriflatonickel(II)] [Ni(dppe)(OSO2CF3)2] [5] and the organic ligand 4,4'-bipyridine [6], which act as vertex and edge, respectively. According to various analyses, it was found that the self-assembly generated only one supramolecular species; a square is the most probable thermodynamic structure.

Selective cytotoxicity of a novel platinum (II) coordination complex on human gastric cancer cell lines and normal kidney cells

We have synthesized novel platinum (II) coordination complex containing cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (DACH) as a carrier ligand and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) as leaving group. Furthermore, nitrate was added to improve the water-solubility. A new series of (Pt(cis-DACH)(DPPE)) cntdot 2NO3 (PC) was evaluated its antitumor activity on various MKN-45 human gastric adenocarcinoma cell-lines and normal primary cultured kidney cells. The new platinum complex demonstrated high efficacy in the cytotoxicity on MKN-45 cell-lines as well as adriamycin-resistant (MKN-45/ADR) and cisplatin-resistant (MKN-45/CDDP) cells. The cytotoxicities of PC were found quite less than those of cisplatin in rabbit proximal renal tubular cells, human renal cortical cells and human renal cortical tissues using MTT assay, (3H)-thymidine uptake and glucose consumption tests. Based on these results, this novel platinum (II) coordination complex, was considered as better a valuable lead for improving antitumor activities with low nephrotoxicities in the development of a new clinically available anticancer chemotherapeutic agents.

In vitro cytotoxicity of novel platinum(II) coordination complexes containing diaminocyclohexane and diphenylphosphines

We have synthesized new platinum(H) analogs containing 1,2-diaminocyclohexane (dach) as a carrier ligand, 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino) propane (DPPP) /1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) as a leaving group and nitrates to improve solubility. In the present study, the cytotoxicity of (Pt(trans-l-dach)(DPPP))cntdot2NO3 (KHPC-001) and (Pt(trans-l-dach)(DPPE)) cntdot 2NO3 (KHPC-002) was evaluated and compared on various P-388 cancer cell lines and porcine kidney cell line (LLC-PK1). The new platinum complexes demonstrated high efficacy on P-388 mouse leukemia cell line as well as cisplatin-resistant (P-388/CDDP) and adriamycin-resistant (P-388/ADR) P-388 cell lines. The intracellular platinum content was measured by a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer (FAAS), and it was comparable to the results of IC50 of the three complexes on LLC-PK1I and P-388/S cells, while only DPPE compound was accumulated in high volume in P-388/ADR and P-388/CDDP cells. While the DNA-interstrand cross-links of KHPC-001, KHPC-002 and cisplatin were similar on P-388/S leukemia cells, these new platinum complexes were much less DNA cross-linking to a kidney derived cell line, LLC-PK1. These results indicate that KHPC-001 and KHPC-002 are a third-generation platinum complexes with potent antitumor activity and low nephrotoxicity.
