چکیده

The B- to Z-DNA transition was very efficiently induced by dinuclear nickel and copper complexes based on the 1,3-bis(1,5,9-triazacyclododecyl) propane ligand but not by the corresponding mononuclear complexes. This dramatically different behaviour is explained by the formation of a macrochelate of the dinuclear complexes to the DNA.

Dissymmetric dinuclear transition metal complexes as dual site catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene

A series of dissymmetric dinuclear complexes were synthesized, as dual site catalysts in ethylene polymerization, by coupling the allylated a-diimine complexes of the metals Ti, Zr, V, Ni and Pd with the ansa-zirconocene complex [C5H4-SiH(Me)-C5H4]ZrCl2 possessing a hydride silane moiety. The different stages of syntheses included the formation of bis(cyclopentadienide)methyl silane which was u...

Mono- and dinuclear metal complexes containing the 1,5,9-triazacyclododecane ([12]aneN3) unit and their interaction with DNA.

The ability of mononucleating and dinucleating macrocylic polyamines and their novel nickel, copper and zinc complexes to induce the left-handed form of poly d(GC) was evaluated. The influence of the nuclearity, the presence or absence of metals ions, the linker length in the case of dinucleating ligands and the metal ion was determined. Almost all dinuclear metal complexes efficiently induced ...
