Influence of Functionalized η6 -Arene Rings on Ruthenium(II) Curcuminoids Complexes

Rosario Scopelliti, Paul Joseph Dyson, Tina Riedel, Laure Debora Pittet, Agnese Petrini

A series of organometallic Ru(II) complexes containing functionalized η6‐arene ligands, together with curcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin as O,O’‐chelating ligands and their RAPTA (ruthenium arene complexes bearing the 1,3,5‐triaza‐7‐phosphaadamantane ligand ...

Ligand and Metal Based Multielectron Redox Chemistry of Cobalt Supported by Tetradentate Schiff Bases

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Julie Renée Michelle Andrez

We have investigated the influence of bound cations on the reduction of cobalt complexes of redox active ligands and explored the reactivity of reduced species with CO2. The one electron reduction of [CoII(Rsalophen)] with alkali metals (M = Li, Na, K) lea ...

Fe N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes as Promising Photosensitizers

Yizhu Liu

The photophysics and photochemistry of transition metal complexes (TMCs) has long been a hot field of interdisciplinary research. Rich metal-based redox processes, together with a high variety in electronic configurations and excited-state dynamics, have r ...

Synthesis, Structure, and Anticancer Activity of Arene-Ruthenium(II) Complexes with Acylpyrazolones Bearing Aliphatic Groups in the Acyl Moiety

Rosario Scopelliti, Paul Joseph Dyson, Tina Riedel

A series of neutral ruthenium(II) arene complexes [(arene)Ru(Q(R))Cl] (arene = p-cymene (cym) or hexamethylbenzene (hmb)) containing 4-acyl-5-pyrazolonate Q(R) ligands with different electronic and steric substituents (R = 4-cyclohexyl, 4-stearoyl, or 4-ad ...

Water exchange studies of lanthanide complexes and aqua ions

Shima Karimi

Complexes of lanthanide (III) ions have been used in structural studies of biomolecules and as contrast agents (CA). Clinically approved CAs have only one water molecule in their first coordination sphere. Structure and water exchange rate of these complex ...

Development of mass spectrometric methods to understand the mechanism of action of transition metal-based anticancer compounds

Fook Seng Ronald Lee

Metal based anti-cancer drugs (metallodrugs) such as cisplatin are a cornerstone of cancer chemotherapy. However, development of this class of compound has been hindered by our lack of understanding of how they function. This is mainly because existing met ...

Synthesis, structure, and catalytic properties of palladium complexes containing bis(phosphino)-amine ligands

Kurt Schenk, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani

Two N,N-bis(diphenylphosphino)-amine ligands [amine = 4-aminomorpholine (L-1) or 1-amino-4-methylpiperazine (L-2)] and their Pd(II) complexes were synthesised and characterised by IR and NMR spectroscopies. The structures of ligand L-1 and both complexes C ...

From Dimethylamine to Pyrrolidine: The Development of an Improved Nickel Pincer Complex for Cross-Coupling of Nonactivated Secondary Alkyl Halides

Rosario Scopelliti, Pablo Marcelo Perez Garcia, Xile Hu, Thomas Clément Di Franco, Alexandre Epenoy

Replacement of a dimethyl amino group of the amidobis(amine) nickel(II) pincer complex (1), [((N2N)-N-Me)-Ni-Cl], by a pyrrolidino group resulted in a new nickel(II) pincer complex (2), [((PNNN)-N-yr-N-Me)Ni-Cl]. Complex 2 is an efficient catalyst for Kuma ...

Iron Complexes for Hydrogen Activation and Catalytic Hydrogenation

Simona Mazza

Inspired by Nature several groups have developed structural and functional iron complexes mimicking the active site of the iron-hydrogenases, which show high reactivity in the H2 cleavage. Usually pendant bases have been incorporated onto families of Fe co ...
