A new one-dimensional Co-based coordination polymer (CP), namely, [Co(Hbta2−)(L)] (Co-CP) (H3bta = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and L = 4̕ -(4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl)-2,2′:6–2″-terpyridine) was successfully prepared through the simple one-step solvothermal method. Co(II) is five-coordinated with two carboxylate oxygen atoms from two different Hbta2− ligands and three nitrogen atoms from one L ligand. Hbta2− and L coordinate with cobalt to form a one-dimensional chain by carboxyl groups bridging, and the one-dimensional chains interconnected by strong hydrogen bonding interactions to generate a two-dimensional layer, which is further extended by π-π stacking interactions into a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture. N-rich L ligands enhance the electrochemical properties of coordination polymer. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometric investigation exhibited that the Co-CP showed excellent nonenzymatic electrochemical sensing performance toward glucose. The Co-CP modified electrode offered a wide linear range from 20 μM to 19.7 mM in three segments and a low detection limit of 5 μM (S/N = 3). The electrochemical glucose sensor also exhibited excellent stability.

Two new heterometallic coordination polymers, [Dy(TPA)Fe(CN6)(H2O)2]·4H2O (1-Dy) and [Gd2(TPA)2Fe2(CN6)2(CH3OH)2]·8.5H2O (2-Gd) were synthesized by reacting DyCl3·6H2O with K3[Fe(CN)6] and tri[(2-pyridyl)methyl]amine (TPA). The structures of both complexes were established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Polymer 1-Dy exhibits a one-dimensional (1D) chain structure formed by [Fe(CN)6]3− bridging the [Dy(TPA)(H2O)2]3+ units. For polymer 2-Gd, each [Fe(CN)6]3− unit is connected to three [Gd(TPA)(CH3OH)]3+ units through three nearly coplanar CN groups, forming a near-rectangular grid Gd2Fe2. These Gd2Fe2 extend to generate a 2-dimensional (2D) monolayered topology, which represents a cyclic formation of a novel grid structure. Hydrogen bonding interactions via water molecules stabilize both structures. Magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Ln(III) and Fe(III) ions, with Fe(III) and Ln(III) centers behaving as nearly isolated magnetic entities.

With the increasing reliance on nuclear energy and the potential environmental release of uranium radionuclides, public concern regarding uranium pollution has steadily grown. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), known for their abundant active sites and unique porous structures, exhibit significant promise in addressing uranium-related challenges. In this study, a nano-hierarchical porous structure of Cu-BTC (NH-Cu-BTC) was synthesized at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, utilizing N,N-dimethylethylenediamine as a templating agent in the aqueous phase. The impact of activation on the porosity characteristics of NH-Cu-BTC was investigated. The as-synthesized NH-Cu-BTC possessed micropores, mesopores, and macropores, with crystal sizes approximately 150 nm. Through simulation calculations, the electrostatic potential and orbital energies of the templating agent molecule were analyzed to elucidate the synthesis mechanism. Various factors influencing the adsorption of uranium (VI) by NH-Cu-BTC, including pH, contact time, and temperature, were explored, and the underlying adsorption mechanisms were elaborated. Compared to C-Cu-BTC, NH-Cu-BTC exhibited a 32.8 % enhancement in its adsorption capacity for uranium (VI). This investigation furnishes precious comprehension regarding the fabrication and utilization of porous substances, proffering a novel tactic for proficiently eliminating uranium (VI) from aqueous mediums.

In situ reaction of SnMe2Cl2 with NaN3 or KOCN in methanol or a mixture of acetone/H2O solution has resulted in the formation of SnMe2(N3)2 (1a) and SnMe2(NCO)2 (1b) complexes, respectively. The reaction of dimethylplatinum(II) complexes [PtMe2(NN)], NN = bpy (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) or 4,4′-Me2bpy (4,4′-Me2bpy = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-dipyridine), with 1a or 1b occurs initially by oxidative addition but the initial platinum(IV) products [PtXMe2(SnMe2X)(NN)], decompose during attempted isolation to give new organoplatinum(II)/(IV) complexes that contain Pt-N3 or Pt-NCO bonds, several of which were characterized crystallographically. The reaction of electron-rich complex [PtMe2(bpy)] (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) with 1a resulted in the formation of the new Pt(IV) complex fac-[PtMe3(N3)(bpy)] (2). However, the similar reaction of 1a or 1b with [PtMe2(4,4′-Me2bpy)] (4,4′-Me2bpy = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-dipyridine) gave the corresponding Pt(II) complexes [PtMe(N3)(4,4′-Me2bpy)] (3), or [PtMe(NCO)(4,4′-Me2bpy)] (4), respectively. The reaction of [PtMe2(4,4′-Me2bpy)] or [PtMe2(bpy)] with SnMe2Cl2, followed by addition of KOCN, gave [PtCl2(4,4′-Me2bpy)] (5) or fac-[PtMe3Cl(bpy)] (6), respectively. The crystal architecture in compounds 2–4 and 6 is stabilized by weak hydrogen bonds and π···π interactions. Further insight was obtained by monitoring the reactions in situ using multinuclear (1H, 13C, 119Sn, 195Pt) NMR spectroscopy in different solvents and by DFT calculations.

Porphyrins are peculiar molecules with very interesting photochemical properties, generally their absorption spectrum typically spans from 350 nm to 650 or 590 nm for the free-base or metal-complex porphyrins, respectively. This wide absorption window makes them suitable candidates for many different applications dealing with light interaction, as need in the new emerging solar cells technologies, in the non-linear optics field and in medical applications such as bioimaging and photodynamic therapy (PDT). By introducing substituents at the meso- or beta-pyrrole position, the porphyrin absorption spectrum can be modified according to the requirements of the different application fields. One of the most effective way to deep affect the UV–vis spectrum of porphyrins is to extend the π-electron system of the tetrapyrrole ring. This can be achieved by introducing triple or double CC bonds directly connected at meso- or beta-position. However, while the introduction of a simple triple bond and, more in general, alkynes exploiting Sonogashira reaction is widely used in porphyrin chemistry affording very high yields, the introduction of a double bond or alkenyl compounds with a well-defined stereochemistry through classical reactions or palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions still remains problematic in terms of hard reaction conditions, excess of alkene reagents, by-products formation. In this review we want to report the synthetic methods described in the literature for obtaining meso- and beta-functionalized porphyrins by means of coupling alkenyl derivatives with porphyrins and metalloporphyrins, thorough the use of the Heck cross-coupling reaction that, if on one hand, is well consolidated with canonical reagents (e.g. with simple aryl-halides, either bromo- or iodo-, or even aryltriflates) on the other side it can be very tricky when meso- or- beta-brominated porphyrin are used. Nevertheless the Heck cross-coupling reaction still remains one of the most versatile synthetic methodology to modify the porphyrin core and, consequently, the optical properties of the tetrapyrrole macrocycle. We will briefly discuss which results can be obtained when bromoporphyins are used as starting aryl-halide and show the last achievements of such coupling by the use of the modern palladium transmetallation reactions.

In this study, a series of amine-functionalized benzimidazolium salts and their PEPPSI-type N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) palladium(II) complexes 3a-e were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and mass spectrometry. The molecular and crystal structure of 3c and 3d was confirmed by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) method. Structural analysis reveals that the geometries of the PdII centers of the complexes adopt slightly distorted square planar environment. The new palladium complexes were tested as catalysts in the direct C5 arylation of 2-acetylfuran and 2-acetylthiophene with aryl bromides at 120 °C in N,N-dimethylacetamide. The arylation reactions proceeded selectively at the C5 position of the heteroaromatic compounds, and the corresponding coupling products were obtained in moderate to good yields by using 1 mol% of the palladium complex. Also, solid computational validation of the experimental results was achieved by geometric optimizations, frontier molecular orbital and molecular electrostatic potential studies, as well as natural bonding orbital analysis utilizing density functional theory.

The clinical use of metal-based anticancer drugs is constrained by challenges like significant side effects and the development of drug resistance. In recent years, metal-based immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducers have attracted significant research interest for their potential in both chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Herein, we present a novel cyclometalated iridium(III) complex Ir-NPX with the COX-2 inhibitor naproxen (NPX) as a ligand, serving as an ICD inducer. Ir-NPX not only showed remarkable antitumor efficacy, notably in targeting cisplatin-resistant A549R cells, but also could inhibit the proliferation of 3D multicellular tumor spheroids. More importantly, Ir-NPX could induce severe mitochondrial injury and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, lead to elevated intracellular free Ca2+ levels, and ultimately trigger the ICD effect in A549R cells. This approach of integrating bioactive molecules with metal species paved the way for the development of novel metal-based drugs for combined chemo-immunotherapy in cancer treatment.
