This book was released on 2015-06-13 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis addresses the coordination chemistry and reactivity of copper and gold complexes with a focus on the elucidation of (i) the metal-mediated activation of σ-bonds and (ii) the migratory insertion reaction. Both processes are of considerable importance in organometallic chemistry, but remain elusive for Cu and Au complexes. In this work, the author contributes significant advances: The first σ-SiH complexes of copper are experimentally and computationally characterized, yielding valuable insights into σ-bond activation processes for copper. Evidence for a highly unusual migratory syn insertion of unsaturated organic molecules into the gold-silicon bond of silylgold (I) complexes is provided and the corresponding mechanism identified. The intermolecular oxidative addition of σ-SiSi, σ-CC and σ-CX (X=halogen) bonds with molecular gold (I) complexes is studied in detail, effectively demonstrating that this reaction, usually considered to be impossible for gold, is actually highly favored, provided an adequate ligand is employed. The use of small-bite angle bis (phosphine) gold (I) complexes allows for the first time the oxidative addition of σ-CC and σ-CX bonds for gold (I). These results shed light on an unexpected reactivity pattern of gold complexes and may point the way to 2-electron redox transformations mediated by this metal, opening up new perspectives in gold catalysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is a study concerning the coordination chemistry and reactivity of copper and gold complexes. Of particular interest was the elucidation of (i) the metal-mediated activation of s-bonds and (ii) the migratory insertion reaction. Both processes are of considerable importance in organometallic chemistry, but elusive for copper and gold. The first part of this manuscript is dedicated to the study of the coordination of s-SiH bonds to copper. By means of a chelate assistance approach, we synthesized copper complexes employing diphosphino-hydrosilane ligands (R2P(o-C6H4))2Si(R')H. This study allowed for the identification of a weak ?2-SiH coordination to copper that has been evidenced by experimental (NMR, IR, XRD) and computational (geometry optimization, NBO analysis) means. The s-SiH coordination is essentially dominated by donation of electron density from the hydrosilane moiety to copper, without significant backdonation. In the second part, we investigated the reactivity of silylgold(I) complexes towards unsaturated organic molecules. We showed that these complexes react with alkynes and allenes to yield (Beta-silyl)vinylgold complexes via migratory syn insertion into the gold-silicon bond. A mechanistic proposal consisting of a 2-step coordination insertion process was established for this transformation by means of a kinetic and computational study. In the third part, the intermolecular oxidative addition of s-SiSi, s-CC and s-CX (X=halogen) bonds with molecular gold(I) complexes was studied in detail. We showed that this reaction, usually considered to be impossible for gold, is actually highly favored, provided an adequate ligand is employed. Disilanes add to cationic monophosphine gold(I) complexes. However, the corresponding bis(silyl)gold(III) products are highly unstable. The use of bis(phosphine) gold(I) complexes, featuring a bidentate ligand with a small bite-angle, allowed for the first time for the oxidative addition of s-CC and s-CX bonds at gold(I) and proved key for the stabilization of the corresponding gold(III) products that were characterized by spectroscopic and structural means. These results shed light on an unexpected reactivity pattern of gold complexes and may be an entry point to 2-electron redox transformations mediated by this metal, opening up new perspectives in gold catalysis.

Download or read book Unconventional Anticancer Metallodrugs and Strategies to Improve their Pharmacological Profile written by Maria Contel and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past 40 years, metal-based drugs have been widely used for the treatment of cancer. Cisplatin and follow-up drugs carboplatin (ParaplatinTM) and oxaliplatin (EloxatinTM) have been the gold standard for metallodrugs in clinical settings as antineoplastic agents. While effective, these drugs (either alone or in combination therapy) have faced a number of clinical challenges resulting from their limited spectrum of activity, high toxicity leading to significant side effects, resistance, poor water solubility, low bioavailability and short circulating time. In the past 10 years, various unconventional non-platinum metal-based agents have emerged as a potential alternative for cancer treatment. These compounds are highly effective and selective in cancers resistant to cisplatin and other chemotherapeutic agents. Research in this area has recently exploded with a relevant number of patents and clinical trials, in addition to reports in scientific journals. Furthermore, in parallel to the synthesis of coordination and organometallic compounds comprising many different metals and unconventional platinum-based derivatives, researchers are focused on optimizing mechanistic and pharmacological features of promising drug candidates. This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest advances in anticancer metallodrugs with a focus on unconventional anticancer agents, as well as novel activation, targeting and delivery strategies aimed at improving their pharmacological profile.
