Taking Advantage of the Coordinative Behavior of a Tridentate Schiff Base Ligand towards Pd2+ and Cu2+
(MDPI, 2019)We have explored the suitability of an O,N,N–donor Schiff base (H2SB) for obtaining dinuclear complexes with heavy metal ions such as Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ (borderline acids) as well as Pd2+ and Cd2+ (soft acids). ... -
Hexanuclear Cu3O–3Cu triazole-based units as novel core motifs for high nuclearity copper(ii) frameworks
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019)The asymmetric 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazole ligand H2V (5-amino-3-picolinamido-1,2,4-triazole) by reaction with an excess of Cu(II) perchlorate (Cu : H2V being 12 : 1) has produced a novel hexanuclear {Cu6(m3-O/H)(HV/V)3} ... -
Canonical DNA minor groove insertion of bisbenzamidine–Ru(ii) complexes with chiral selectivity
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019)We report the first Ru(II) coordination compounds that interact with DNA through a canonical minor groove insertion mode and with selectivity for A/T rich sites. This was made possible by integrating a bis-benzamidine minor ... -
Attainment of Pentagonal-Bipyramidal LnIII Complexes from a Planar Pentadentate Ligand
(MDPI, 2020)The search for mononuclear lanthanoid-based single-ion magnets (SIMs) has increased the interest in some coordination environments with low coordination numbers, in combination with an axial symmetry, as they could maximize ... -
