Abstract Six- and seven-membered cyclic hydroxamic acids are found as terminal binding units in different families of siderophores, including exochelins and mycobactins. The simplest models of these preorganized chelating ligands were known, but their coordination chemistry with Fe3+, the target metal ion of siderophores, had never been reported. Four complexes were synthesized and studied: two...[more]
Abstract The performance of six newly synthesized benzo[h]quinoline-derived acetonitrilo pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iridium(III) tetrakis(3,5-bis-trifluoromethylphenyl)borate salts bearing different substituents -X (-OMe, -H, -Cl, -Br, -NO2 and –(NO2)2) on the heterochelating ligand were evaluated in the dehydro-O-silylation of benzyl alcohol and the monohydrosilylation ...[more]

Abstract Carbonylmetallates [m]−, such as [MoCp(CO)3]−, [Mn(CO)5]−, [Co(CO)4]−, have long been successfully used in the preparation of hundreds of metal-metal bonded carbonyl complexes and clusters, in particular of the heterometallic type. We focus here on situations where [m]− can be viewed as a terminal, doubly or even triply bridging metalloligand, developing metal-metal interactions with...[more]
Abstract: This article covers 50 years of coordination chemistry of transition metal complexes and metal-sulfur aggregates involving thiolate-incorporating ligands by reviewing selected examples. The studies in the coordination chemistry of sulfur-rich ligands have been undoubtedly triggered and fed by the concomitant development of bioinorganic chemistry, particularly of iron-sulfur enzymes....[more]
Abstract α-Pyridyl thiosemicarbazones (TSC) such as Triapine (3AP) and Dp44mT are a promising class of anticancer agents. Contrary to Triapine, Dp44mT showed a pronounced synergism with CuII, which may be due to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by Dp44mT-bound CuII ions. However, in the intracellular environment, CuII complexes have to cope with glutathione (GSH), a relevant CuII...[more]
