Iron(ii) complexes of two new tetradentate C-scorpionate ligands are characterized. Both catalyze stilbene cleavage using either H2O2 or a O2/photocatalyst oxidant.

: The development of safe and effective chemotherapeutic agents is one of the uppermost priorities and challenges of medicinal chemistry and new transition metal complexes are being continuously designed and tested as anticancer agents. Scorpionate ligands have played a great role in coordination chemistry, since their discovery by Trofimenko in the late 1960s, with significant contributions in the fields of catalysis and bioinorganic chemistry. Scorpionate metal complexes have also shown interesting anticancer properties, and herein, the most recent (last decade) and relevant scorpionate complexes reported for application in medicinal chemistry as chemotherapeutic agents are reviewed. The current progress on the anticancer properties of transition metal complexes bearing homo- or hetero- scorpionate ligands, derived from bis- or tris-(pyrazol-1-yl)-borate or -methane moieties is highlighted.

Addition of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol to 3β-hydroxy-5α-androst-15-en-17-one gave the mixture of isomeric 15-(4-methoxyphenyl)methoxy derivatives from which, after acetylation and chromatography, the major 15β isomer was separated. Borohydride reduction gave 17β-hydroxy derivative which was protected as methoxymethyl ether. Oxidative cleavage of protecting group at position 15 and the subsequent Jones oxidation afforded corresponding 15-ketone. Its oximation with O-(carboxymethyl)hydroxylamine, deacetylation and methylation with diazomethane gave protected O-(carboxymethyl)oxime derivative with free hydroxy group at position 3. Its oxidation afforded dihydrotestosterone derivative and successive deprotection of position 17 and of carboxy group led to final (15E)-17β-hydroxy-5α-androstane-3,15-dione 15-[O-(carboxymethyl)]oxime. The title compound was designed as dihydrotestosterone hapten for heterologous radioimmunoassays.
