Radioiron excretion in the urine and feces after continuous subcutaneous infusion of desferrioxamine (DF) was studied in normal and hypertransfused rats in whom reticuloendothelial and parenchymal iron stores had been labeled by selective 59Fe probes. The existence of two alternative pathways for the chelation of iron in vivo by DF was indicated by the results. The first pathway was intracellul...

A 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) chelated molybdenum(VI) citrate, [(MoO2)2O(H2cit)(phen)(H2O)2] x H2O (1) (H4cit = citric acid), is isolated from the reaction of citric acid, ammonium molybdate and phen in acidic media (pH 0.5-1.0). A citrato oxomolybdenum(V) complex, [(MoO)2O(H2cit)2(bpy)2] x 4H2O (2), is synthesized by the reduction of citrato molybdate with hydrazine hydrochloride in the presenc...

The asymmetric unit of the polymeric title compound, {[Pr(2)(C(5)H(4)N(3)O(2))(5)(CHO(2))(H(2)O)(5)]·6H(2)O}(n), has two independent Pr(III) atoms; one is coordinated by two water mol-ecules and the other by three water mol-ecules. The first is N,O-chelated by three 3-amino-pyrazine-2-carboxyl-ate ions, whereas the second is chelated by two carboxyl-ate ions; both exist in a monocapped square-a...

In the binuclear centrosymmetric title compound, [In(2)(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(2)(C(7)H(4)NO(4))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·4H(2)O, which contains both pyridine-2,3-dicarboxyl-ate and 3-carb-oxy-pyridine-2-carboxyl-ate ligands, the In(III) atom is six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. One pyridine ligand is N,O-chelated while the other is N,O-chelated and at the same time bridging to the other via th...

In the centrosymmetric title compound, [Zn(4)(C(9)H(6)NO)(6)(C(2)H(3)O(2))(2)]·2H(2)O, the Zn(II) atom that is bonded to one O atom of the acetate group is chelated by a quinolin-8-olate anion. This Zn atom is also bonded to the oxide O atoms of two other quinolin-8-olate anions, which themselves engage in chelation to the other Zn(II) atoms. The Zn(II) atom is five-coordinate in a square-pyram...

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Cu(C(14)H(17)NO(4))(C(12)H(8)N(2))]·H(2)O, contains two independent Cu(II) complex mol-ecules and two uncoordinated water mol-ecules. In each complex mol-ecule, the Cu atom is O,N,O'-chelated by the tridentate Schiff base ligand and N,N'-chelated by the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The Cu-N bond distances in the ...

[reaction: see text] The solution and chelation properties of 2-thienyllithium reagents with potential amine and ether chelating groups in the 3-position and related model systems have been investigated using low temperature 6Li, 7Li, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy, 15N-labeling, and the effect of solvent additives. In THF-ether mixtures at low temperature 3-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-2-thienylli...

A controlled trial of continuous chelation therapy in regularly transfused children with homozygous beta-thalassaemia has been in progress at the Hospital for Sick Children since April 1966. In the sixth and seventh years of the trial the effect of this treatment on iron overload has been assessed by estimating serum ferritin levels and liver iron concentrations in both chelator-treated and con...

The title mol-ecule, [Ir(C14H14FN2O)2(C5H7O2)], is located on a twofold rotation axis, which passes through the Ir(III) atom and the central C atom of the pentane-2,4-dionate anion. The Ir(III) atom adopts a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry, being C,N-chelated by two 2-tert-but-oxy-6-fluoro-3-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridin-4-yl ligands and O,O'-chelated by the pentane-2,4-dionato ligand. The ...
