A dinuclear Cu(ii) complex 3, having an unprecedented in situ formed 2,6-piperidin-4-one-based ligand produced from a flexible Schiff-base ligand HL1, can be yielded as a side product in Cu(OAc)2·H2O–NH3·H2O dissolved in methanol–acetone besides the expected dinuclear Cu(ii) complex 1.

AbstractSynthesis and structural characterization of two heterodinuclear ZnII-LnIII complexes with the formula [ZnLn(HL)(µ-OAc)(NO3)2(H2O)x(MeOH)1-x]NO3 · n H2O · n MeOH [Ln = Pr (1), Nd (2)] and the crystal and molecular structure of [ZnNd(HL)(µ-OAc)(NO3)2(H2O)] [ZnNd(HL)(OAc)(NO3)2(H2O)](NO3)2 · n H2O · n MeOH (3) are reported. The asymmetrical compartmental ligand (E)-2-(1-(2-((2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino)-ethyl)imidazolidin-2-yl)-6-methoxyphenol (H2L) is formed from N1,N3-bis(3-methoxysalicylidene)diethylenetriamine (H2valdien) through intramolecular aminal formation, resulting in a peripheral imidazoline ring. The structures of 1–3 were revealed by X-ray crystallography. The smaller ZnII ion occupies the inner N2O2 compartment of the ligand, whereas the larger and more oxophilic LnIII ions are found in the outer O2O2’ site. Graphic Abstract Synthesis and structural characterization of two heterodinuclear ZnII-LnIII complexes (Ln = Pr, Nd) bearing an asymmetrical compartmental ligand formed in situ from N1,N3-bis(3-methoxysalicylidene)diethylenetriamine (H2valdien) through intramolecular aminal formation are reported.

A new centrosymmetric trinuclear Zn(II) complex [Zn3L2(CH3COO)4] (1) has been synthesized by the reaction of Zn(CH3COO)2 · 2H2O with a tridentate N,N,O-donor Schiff base ligand HL [C5H4NC(CH3)=NC6H4(OH)] and systematically characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV/Vis and thermal methods. Single crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that three Zn(II) centers are in two different coordination environments. Two terminal Zn(II) centers adopt a distorted squarepyramidal geometry leaving the central Zn(II) in a distorted octahedral environment. Two adjacent metal centers are connected through single μ2-phenolato as well as double μ-acetato-O,O´ syn-syn bridges. Fluorescence properties of the complex as compared to the ligand indicate that the former can serve as a potential photoactive material.

The kinetics of the transfer of Schiff base ligands between their nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes have been examined in dmso. Reactions completed in the presence of added nickel(II) and zinc(II) ions indicate the occurrence of a coordination chain reaction with rate acceleration prompted by one chain initiating and one chain propa- gating step.

Generation of well-defined potential metallotherapeutics for cancer treatment, one of the most population-threatening diseases, is challenging and an active area of modern research in view of their unique properties and thus multiple possible pathways of action in cells. Specifically, Schiff base ligands were recognized as very promising building blocks for the construction of stable and active complexes of numerous geometries and topologies. Incorporation of Ag(I) ions allows for the formation of flat complexes with potential unoccupied coordination sites, thus giving rise to specific interactions between the metallotherapeutic and biomolecule of interest. Herein, we present the design, synthesis and characterization of new Schiff base ligand L and its Ag(I) bimetallic complex [Ag2L2]2+ with two planar moieties formed around the metal ions and connected through cyclohexane rings, confirmed by X-ray measurements. The compounds were described in context of their potential use as anticancer drugs through DNA and BSA binding pathways by several spectroscopic methods (CD, UV-Vis, fluorescence). We revealed that both, L and [Ag2L2]2+, interact with similar affinity with CT-DNA (Kb~106 M−1), while they differ in the type and strength of interactions with the model albumin–BSA. [Ag2L2]2+ binds BSA in both a dynamic and static manner with the Ksv = 8.8 × 104 M−1 in the Trp-134 and Trp-213 sites, whereas L interacts with BSA only dynamically (KSV = 2.4 × 104 M−1). This found further confirmation in the CD studies which revealed a reduction in α-helix content in the albumin of 16% in presence of [Ag2L2]2+.
