Ligands monofunctional

The intra-complex PCMU are those compounds in which at least one fragment is linked with the metal ion via both a valent and coordination bond. It should be noted that such compounds can be neutral, cationic, anionic or contain, in addition to chelating ligands, monofunctional varieties. The number of such PCMU is enormous therefore we shall indicate the most frequent types. A detailed consideration has been given earlier to complexes of metals with polymers containing diketone [13], o-hydroxyazomethine [14], enaminoketone [15], amino add [16], 8-hydroxyquinoline [17] and other groups. 

For reduction of monofunctional ketones, the most effective catalysts include diamine ligands. The diamine catalysts exhibit strong selectivity for carbonyl groups over carbon-carbon double and triple bonds. These catalysts have a preference for equatorial approach in the reduction of cyclohexanones and for steric approach control in the reduction of acyclic ketones.51... 

The procedure described here is not limited to the preparation of polymers such as 2. Starting from the difunctional silane 3 we have synthesized a copolymer, poly(dimethyl-co-isocyanopropylmethyl-siloxane) > as well as a linear homopolymer, poly(isocyanopropyl-methylsiloxane) 8 (Scheme 2). Indeed, preparation of a monofunctional analogue of 2. and h creates the potential for end-capping with an isocyanide function any polymer containing other functional groups, thereby in principle permitting mixed ligand complexes of polymers to be accessed. 

The great majority of platinum(I) complexes are binuclear with monofunctional or bifunctional bridging groups. However, there is also a series of unsupported dimers with the general structure shown in (12). These are generally stabilized by phosphine, carbonyl, and isocyanide ligands.17 Dimeric hydride complexes can have terminal or bridging hydrides and these are discussed above in Section 6.5.2.1.4. 

In the case of complexes such as (21) and (23) which have an extended planar ligand, a significantly higher proportion of interstrand cross-links in DNA is formed in comparison to either cis- or trans-platin.172 The steric effects of these planar ligands result in the formation of structurally unique 1,2-interstrand cross-links like those formed by cisplatin, a unique example of how steric effects may alter a nonactive lesion into an active one (Figure 13).173,174 Model studies predicted this outcome by preparation of the monofunctional models trans-[PtCl(9-ethylguanine) (NH3)(quinoline)] and comparison of substitution rates of the Pt—Cl bond by G or C mononucleotides.175 176 Interestingly, the iminoether compound (25) appears to form predominantly monofunctional adducts with DNA.177...

Sulfur-bound L-Met, as opposed to S,N-chelated L-Met, is more reactive as a ligand on Pt(II) and can be slowly replaced by N7 of G (95, 96). Transfer of Pt onto DNA via Met-containing peptides or proteins may therefore be possible. Monofunctional adducts of the type [Pt(en)(G)(L-Met-S)] appear to be very stable (97) and so methionine may play a role in trapping these adducts. Also, the high trans influence of S as a Pt(II) ligand can lead to the facile labilization of trans-am(m)ine ligands and this allows cisplatin to react with GMP faster in the presence of L-Met then in its absence (98), which introduces another route to DNA platination. 

Figure 7 presents the overall, idealized reaction mechanism. The surface of MCM-48 contains 0.9 OH / nmJ, which react completely with DMDCS in the liquid phase, if NEt3 is used as a catalyst. The majority of the silanols react monofunctionally but a small fraction also reacts further, according to reaction (3) to yield inert, bidentate species. All chlorine functions on the surface are converted towards hydroxyls upon hydrolysis. The VO(acac)2 is reacted in a gas-phase reactor with this silylated, hydrolyzed surface. All recreated silanols react with the VO(acac)2 in a 1 1 stoichiometry, following a ligand-exchange mechanism. Upon calcination at 450°C, the acac ligands are decomposed but the methylsilyl functions remain intact. Most of the V-species are converted into isolated, tetrahedral VvOx species, as indicated in Figure 4. However, a small fraction clusters to form surface oligomers, hereby recreating a fraction of the silanols.

The most important chelate types are illustrated in Figure 2.7. Compounds in column A display a metal ion with coordination number four. The coordination number six is represented by the chelates of column B and C. Rows a, b, and c cover bi-, tri- and tetraftmctional or -dentate ligands, respectively. The types Ab and the types of column B contain additional monofunctional ligands to complete the coordination numbers of four and six, respectively. 

M = central metal atom, L = monofunctional ligand, X-X = bidentate ligand, X-X-X = tridentate ligand, X-X-X-X = tetradentate ligand. 

Bonded phases can be obtained as monomeric or polymeric coverage of an organic ligand group, R, on the silica surface depending on whether a monofunctional (R- SiX) or a trifunctional (RSiXj) reactant is used, respec-... 

The monofunctional complexes [PtCl(dien)]+, [PtCl(NH3)3]+, and the active d.v-compounds cA-[PtCl(NH3)2 (Am)]+, where Am is an heterocyclic or aromatic amine ligand like pyridine, pyrimidine, purine, or aniline, only form stable monoadducts with DNA [50][51]. However, when Am = A-methyl-2,7-diazapyrenium (a strong intercalator), the monoadduct is stable only on single-stranded DNA. On double-stranded DNA it is hydrolyzed with release of c T-[Pt(NH3)2(Am)(H20)]3+ or of Am generating the aqua monoadduct of cisplatin [52],...
