This work describes reactions of heteroallenes with diamido-diamine cyclam-based Zr(iv) complexes of the general formula (Bn2Cyclam)ZrX2 (X = O(t)Bu, , O(i)Pr, , SPh, , NH(t)Bu, ) as well as the di-orthometallated species ((C6H4CH2)2Cyclam)Zr, . The reactions of isocyanates or isothiocyanates with , or resulted in the formation of N-bonded ureate or thioureate cyclam complexes upon [2 + 2] cycl...

Introduction Increasing drug resistance and poor activity of existing therapies towards the latent stage of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection has produced a clear need to develop novel therapeutics to treat tuberculosis [1]. Thus fast-acting drugs with novel mechanisms of action that are not cross resistant to existing drugs are being sought actively. Wilkinson and coworkers first reported t...

The recently reported metalation/transmetalation route for the synthesis of CCC-bis(NHC) pincer ligand supported transition-metal complexes was extended to Pt. 2-(1,3-Bis(N-butylimidazol-2-ylidene)phenylene)(chloro)platinum(II) (1) and its bromo analogue 2 were synthesized and characterized. X-ray crystal structure determinations revealed complexes 1 and 2 to have distorted-square-planar config...
