ABSTRACT

Photophysics and photochemistry of a potential light-activated cytotoxic dirhodium complex [Rh2(µ-O2CCH3)2(bpy)(dppz)](O2CCH3)2, where bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (Complex 1 or Rh2) in aqueous solutions was studied by means of stationary photolysis and time-resolved methods in time range from hundreds of femtoseconds to microseconds. According to the literature, Complex 1 demonstrates both oxygen-dependent (due to singlet oxygen formation) and oxygen-independent cytotoxicity. Photoexchange of an acetate ligand to a water molecule was the only observed photochemical reaction, which rate was increased by oxygen removal from solutions. Photoexcitation of Complex 1 results in the formation of the lowest triplet electronic excited state, which lifetime is less than 10 ns. This time is too short for diffusion-controlled quenching of the triplet state by dissolved oxygen resulting in 1O2 formation. We proposed that singlet oxygen is produced by photoexcitation of weakly bound van der Waals complexes [Rh2…O2], which are formed in solutions. If this is true, no oxygen-independent light-induced cytotoxicity of Complex 1 exists. Residual cytotoxicity deaerated solutions are caused by the remaining [Rh2…O2] complexes.

ABSTRACT

Four new metal-organic frameworks based on cobalt(II) salts and 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane N,N'-dioxide (odabco) were obtained. Their crystallographic formulae are [Co3(odabco)2(OAc)6] (1, OAc- = acetate), [Co(H2O)2(HCOO)2]·odabco (2), [Co2(H2O)(NO3)(odabco)5](NO3)3·3.65H2O (3), and [Co2(DMF)2(odabco)4](NO3)4·3H2O (4; DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide). Crystal structures of 1-4 were determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Coordination polymer 1 comprises binuclear and mononuclear metal-acetate blocks alternating within uncharged one-dimensional chains, in which odabco acts as a bridging ligand. A layered Co(II) formate 2 contains odabco only as guest molecules located in the interlayer space. Layered compound 3 and three-dimensional 4 have cationic coordination frameworks with 26% and 34% specific void volumes, respectively, unveiling high structural diversity of Co(II)-odabco MOFs based on quite a rare aliphatic moiety. Magnetization measurements were performed for 1, 3, and 4 and the obtained data were interpreted on the basis of their crystal structures. A strong (J/kB~100 K) antiferromagnetic coupling was found within binuclear metal blocks in 1. Ion exchange experiments revealed a considerable iodide uptake by 3 resulting in an up to 75% guest nitrate substitution within the voids of a coordination framework, found by capillary zone electrophoresis data and confirmed by single-crystal XRD. A preservation of 3 crystallinity during the exchange allowed for the guest I- positions within a new adduct with the formula [Co2(H2O)(NO3)(odabco)5]I2(NO3)·1.85H2O (3-I) to be successfully determined and the odabco aliphatic core to be revealed as a main adsorption center for quite large and easily polarizable iodide anions. In summary, this work presents a comprehensive study for a series of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane N,N'-dioxide-based MOFs of cobalt(II) within the framework of magnetic properties and reports the first example of anion exchange in odabco-based coordination networks, supported by direct X-ray structural data. The reported results unveil promising applications of such frameworks bearing ligands with an aliphatic core in the diverse structural design of selective adsorbents and other types of functional materials.

ABSTRACT

Arsenic aromatic compounds including p-arsanylic acid (pASA) are still widely used in a number of countries as the feed additives in animal breeding resulting in its entering the environment. Under the influence of oxidizing agents or UV radiation, pASA undergoes transformations leading to generation of inorganic arsenic species that are more mobile and toxic than organic ones. On the one hand, an approach based on the treatment of contaminated waters by UV irradiation seems perspective for their detoxification, but the feasibility of this approach depends on the composition of the products forming as a result of photodegradation. In the present work, a CZE was applied for the study of the pASA degradation process during stationary (308 nm) photolysis in the presence of Fe(III)-oxalate complex. A developed assay allowed controlling the parent compounds and also As-containing products of pASA degradation, presented mainly by arsenate and arsenite ions. It was found that the main inorganic derivatives of the pASA photolytic conversions are presented by arsenate and arsenite ions whose ratio depends on the initial amount of pASA and reaction conditions.

ABSTRACT

Organic arsenicals are important environment pollutants due to wide use in livestock and toxicity of degradation products. In this work we report about the efficient photodegradation of the p-arsanilic acid (p-ASA) and its decomposition products in the Fe(III)-oxalate assisted approach under nature-relevant conditions. At neutral pH under near-visible UV irradiation the Fe(III) oxalate complexes generate the primary oxidizing intermediate, OH radical (the quantum yield of ϕOH âˆ¼ 0.06), which rapidly reacts with p-ASA with high rate constant, (8.6 ± 0.5) × 109 M-1s-1. Subsequent radical reactions result in the complete photooxidation of both p-ASA and basic aromatic photoproducts with the predominant formation of inorganic arsenic species, mainly As(V), under optimal conditions. Comparing with the direct UV photolysis, the presented Fe(III)-oxalate mediated degradation of p-ASA has several advantages: higher efficiency at low p-ASA concentration and complete degradation of organic arsenic by-products without use of short-wavelength UV radiation. The obtained results illustrate that the Fe(III)-oxalate complexes are promising natural photosensitizers for the removal of arsenic pollutants from contaminated waters.
