چکیده

Gold(Ill) is isoelectronic (5d8) and often isostructuml (square-planar) with Pt(ll) and might form the basis of active anticancer agents [1]. However little is known about the biochemistry of Au(lll), a subject also of interest in connection with the side-effects of antiarthritic gold drugs [2]. In this work we have explored the binding of [Au(lll)(diethylenetriamine)CI]CI2 to tripeptides over the pH range 2-10.

[AU(DIEN)Cl]Cl2: Exchange Phenomena Observed by 1H and 13C NMR Spectroscopy

The solution behaviour of the square-planar gold(III) complex [Au(dien)Cl]Cl(2) (dien = 1,5- diamino-3-azapentane) was investigated by (13)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. We have found that (1)H NMR spectra of [Au(dien)Cl] Cl(2) are characterised by exchange behaviour over the whole pH range, and some exchange effects are also seen in (13)C NMR spectra of the deprotonated hydroxo derivative of th...

Kinetics and mechanism of the reactions of Au(III) complexes with some biologically relevant molecules.

The kinetics of the substitution reactions between the mono-functional Au(III) complexes, [Au(dien)Cl](2+) and [Au(terpy)Cl](2+) (dien = 3-azapentane-1,5-diamine, terpy = 2,2';6',2''-terpyridine) and bi-functional Au(III) complexes, [Au(bipy)Cl(2)](+) and [Au(dach)Cl(2)](+) (bipy = 2.2'-bipyridine, dach = (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane) and biologically relevant ligands such as l-histidine (l-H...

Influence of gold-bipyridyl derivants on aggregation and disaggregation of the prion neuropeptide PrP106-126.

Metal complexes can effectively inhibit the aggregation of amyloid peptides, such as Aβ, human islet amyloid polypeptide, and prion neuropeptide PrP106-126. Gold (Au) complexes exhibited better inhibition against PrP106-126 aggregation, particularly the Au-bipyridyl (bpy) complex; however, the role of different ligand configurations remains unclear. In the present study, three derivants of Au-b...

Pt(II) complexes of unsubstituted guanine and 7-methylguanine.

In solution, unsubstituted guanine (GH2) is in a tautomeric equilibrium between 1H,7H-keto and 1H,9H-keto forms. Upon coordination with (dien)Pt(II), N9-bound mononuclear complex is preferentially formed. With excess (dien)Pt(II), the dinuclear complex [{Pt(dien)}2(GH-N7,N9)]3+ is formed at basic pH. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of mononuclear complexes [Pt(dien)(GH2-N9)](ClO4)2 x 2.25 ...

Characterization of intermolecular interaction between Cl2 and HX (X=F, Cl and Br): An ab initio, DFT, NBO and AIM study

The character of the intermolecular interactions in Cl2-HX (X =F, Cl and Br) complexes has been investigated by means of the second-order Möller–Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) and the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The results show that there are two types of lowest interaction potential equilibrium structures in the interactions between Cl2 and HX: X∙∙∙Cl type geometry and hy...
