Article Abstract
The use of a nonrigid, pyridyldialdimine-derived macrocyclic ligand (PDAI) enabled the synthesis of well-defined mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-nuclear Cu(I) complexes in good yields through rational synthetic means. Starting from mono- and diargentous PDAI complexes, transmetalation to Cu(I) proceeded smoothly with formation of AgX (X = Cl, I) salts to generate mono-, di-, and trinuclear copper complexes. Monodentate supporting ligands (MeCN, xylNC, PMe, PPh) were found to either transmetallate with or bind various di- and trinuclear clusters. The solution-phase dynamic behaviors of these species were studied through NMR spectroscopic investigations, and an in-depth study of the trinuclear systems revealed a rate dependence on the identity of the supporting ligand, indicating that ligand dissociation reactions were involved in the dynamic exchange processes. Synthetic investigations further found methods for the purposeful interconversion between the di- and trinuclear systems as well as the synthesis of a pseudotetrahedral tetracopper complex with two μ-Ph supporting ligands.

An generated ligand formed by the Schiff base condensation of 3,5-di--butylsalicylaldehyde and (-) or (+) 2-phenylglycinol was reacted with cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate, affording mixed-valence enantiomerically pure [CoCoIII2( or -L) (L)(COCH)] complexes 1-R and 1-S {where L = () or ()-2,4-di--butyl-6-(4-hydroxo-3-phenylbut-1-en-1-yl)phenolate and L = () or () 2-phenylglycinolate} with linear trinuclear metal cores. X-ray structural and BVS analysis revealed the linear arrangement of metal cores with the central cobalt ion in a +2 oxidation state, while the terminal cobalt ions are in a +3 oxidation state. The fitting of the DC magnetic data revealed easy-axis magnetic anisotropy with = -58.

FomA is a major outer membrane protein of (Fn) overexpressed in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues, where increased levels of Cu ions together with reactive oxygen species (ROS) were noted. In this comparative study, the connection between surrounded by copper ions and the ROS overgeneration leading to the development of CRC is examined. Our study focused on a model peptide Ac-KGHGNGEEGTPTVHNEYH-NH () derived from the FomA reflecting a fragment of the protein loop no.

Cancer remains a leading cause of death, with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) being particularly significant due to limited treatment options. As such, there is interest in anticancer polynuclear platinum(II) complexes, attributed to their unique DNA-binding modes and potential against therapy-resistant cancer phenotypes. However, a persistent challenge with polynuclear compounds is their lack of cellular trackability, hindering their effectiveness and monitoring in clinical settings.

The oxime group is important in organic and inorganic chemistry. In most cases, this group is part of an organic molecule possessing one or more donor sites capable of forming bonds to metal ions. One family of such compounds is the group of 2-pyridyl (aldo)ketoximes.

A series of small coinage metal(I) clusters has been selectively synthesized using 2-(diphenylphosphino)-1,10-phenanthroline (L), a new promising dimetal-binding -ligand (L). Its reaction with CuI yields the complex [CuL(μ-I)][CuI], while the treatment of L with Au(tht)Cl/Ag or Au(tht)Cl/Cu systems leads to the assembly of [AuAgLCl], [AuCuLCl], [CuAuL] and [AgAuL] clusters. Theoretical analysis revealed pronounced intermetallic close shell interactions in these di- and trinuclear ensembles.
