A novel anionic organotin(Ⅳ) complex {[(pClCHCH)Sn(HO)(Cl)OCOCH(O)CH(O)COSn(HO)(Cl)(p-ClCHCH)]·2(HNEt)}(1) was synthesized by the reaction of di(p-chlorobenzy)tin dichloride with the D-tartaric acid in 2:1 molar...A novel anionic organotin(Ⅳ) complex {[(pClCHCH)Sn(HO)(Cl)OCOCH(O)CH(O)COSn(HO)(Cl)(p-ClCHCH)]·2(HNEt)}(1) was synthesized by the reaction of di(p-chlorobenzy)tin dichloride with the D-tartaric acid in 2:1 molar in the presence of an organic base triethylamine. The structure was characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TG, XRD and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in triclinic, P1 space group, with a = 0.7067(1), b = 1.9762(3), c = 2.2383(3) nm, α = 91.544(2)°, β = 90.075(2)°, γ = 90.110(2)°, V = 3.1247(7) nm~3, Z = 3, Dc = 1.621 g/cm~3, m(Mo Kα) = 16.29 cm–1, F(000) = 1530, R = 0.0394, wR = 0.1092,(Δρ)max = 1224 and(Δρ)min = –840 e/nm~3. The stabilities, orbital energies and composition characteristics of some frontier molecular orbitals of 1 have been carefully investigated with quantum chemistry calculation. In addition, the in vitro antitumor activity suggested that 1 had stronger inhibitory activity on H460, MCF7 than on A549.展开更多

This work obtained the complexes of three fucoidan oligosaccharides with different molecular weights F1 (〉5 000), F2 (1 000-5 000) and F3 (〈 1 000) by hydrolyzing Oligosaccharide collagen with sulfuric acid. It is found that the fucoidan oligosaccharide F3 can form complex with more Ce^IV than F1 and F2. Hydrolyzing collagen with the complex was carried out to produce amino acid and peptides. All the three fucoidan oligosaccharide complexes with CeIV( F1, F2, F3) can catalyze by the artificial hydrolytic enzyme, and the activity of the complex of F3 is the highest.展开更多

It crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1 with a = 10.20850(10), b = 10.33870(10), c = 10.814 .A a = 79.453(12), β = 66.879( 11 ), γ = 72.461 (10)°, V = 998.14(9) A^3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.648 g/cm^3, μ(MoKa) = 4.025 mm^-1, F(000) = 490, C40H40Cl6P2Pt, Mr = 990.44, the final R = 0.0270 and wR = 0.0617 for 5787 observed reflections with 1 〉 2σ(Ⅰ). Structure analysis indicates that the platinum atom almost has the ideal octahedral coordination geometry of PtCl6. The quaternary phosphate cations (Ph3PEt^+) acting as counter ions are in combination with PtCl6 anions by static attracting forces and H-bonds. Upon the hydrogen bonds existing between cations and anions, the whole structure represents a chain-like construction. Based on the crystal data, quantum chemistry calculation at the DFT/B3LPY level was carded out to reveal the electronic structure of 1.展开更多

In solution, both ligands are C3-symmetric but crystal structures show the great influence of the reduction on the molecular structure. We show that the planar imine ligand is converted to a highly flexible compound which has nine potential coordination sites, three phenoxy and six amine donors, for binding metal ions. First solid state structures of 1:1 (metal:ligand) coordination compounds with SnIV and ZrIV are presented. SnIV exhibits an octahedral coordination sphere and is bound in a facial [ONN] coordination pocket. ZrIV is pentagonal bipyramidal coordinated and the ligand stabilizes this with its’ [ONNO] binding sites.展开更多
