In the title compound, [Cu₂Cl₄(C₁₆H₃₂N₄)](n), the central Cu(II) anion of the macrocyclic complex cation is weakly linked to two Cl atoms of the tetrachloridocuprate anion with Cu-Cl distances of 3.008 (3) and 3.220 (3) Å, respectively, forming a chain parallel to [10-1]. The geometry of the Cu-macrocyclic complex is distorted octa-hedral with the bridging Cl atoms occupying the axial position ...

The spontaneous oxidation of an amine group to an imine has been observed experimentally in an octa-aza macrocyclic dinucleating ligand LH(4) coordinated to Cu(II). The reaction is bimolecular and spontaneous in which amine groups of one macrocycle are oxidised and the Cu(II) centres of a second macrocyclic complex are reduced. No additional oxidating or external base agents are required. DFT c...

The title copper(II) complex of a pyridine-containing macrocycle (PyMAC), [Cu(C16H28N4)](ClO4)2, has been prepared. The crystal structure reveals the Cu(II) atom to be octahedrally coordinated by a tetradentate aminopyridine macrocyclic ligand surrounding the metal cation in a square-planar geometry. Two weakly bound perchlorate counter-ions occupy the axial sites above and below the macrocycli...

A new macrocyclic Schiff base complexes were prepared in the presence of lanthanide metal ion[La(III), Ce(III) and Gd(III)] by the reaction of 2,6 – diamino pyridine, benzoyl aceton and metal ion as template effect in the molar ratio of 2: 2: 1 respectively. The lanthanide metal complexes were characterized and investigated by using; 1 HNMR, FTIR, UV/Visible spectroscopy, Elemental analysis (C....

A series of P1-P3 linked macrocyclic BACE-1 inhibitors containing a hydroxyethylamine (HEA) isostere scaffold has been synthesized. All inhibitors comprise a toluene or N-phenylmethanesulfonamide P2 moiety. Excellent BACE-1 potencies, both in enzymatic and cell-based assays, were observed in this series of target compounds, with the best candidates displaying cell-based IC(50) values in the low...

Macrocyclic compounds are an attractive class of therapeutic ligands against challenging targets, such as protein–protein interactions. However, the development macrocycles drugs is hindered by lack large combinatorial macrocyclic libraries, which cumbersome, expensive, and time consuming to make, screen, deconvolute. Here, we established a strategy for synthesizing screening libraries on picom...

Three cobalt complexes bearing tunable, redox-active bipyridyl N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-based ligands have been studied for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution from aqueous solutions. The effect of structural modifications to the ligand framework is investigated across catalyst series, which includes a non-macrocyclic derivative (1-Co) and 16-(2-Co) 15-(3-Co) membered macrocycles. A structu...

Macrocyclic complexes of co(III) of the type, CoCy1-2B’X where Cy1 represents themacrocyclic ligand 1,8-dichloro-2,7,9,14-tetraoxa-1,1,8,8-tetraisopropoxy4,5,11,12-tetramethyl-1,3,6,10,13tetraaza, cyclotetradeca-3,5,10,12tetrene[boimacylene(14)] and cy2-represents the macrocyclic ligand 1,8-dibora2,7,9,14-tetraoxa -1,1,8,8-tetraisopropoxy 4,5,11,12-tetraphenyl-1,3,6,10,13Tetraazacyclotetradeca-...

A new family of Tetraazamacrocyclic Ru(II) complexes [RuCl2(L)] (where L = N4 donor macrocyclic ligands) have been synthesized by the reactions of [RuCl2(DMSO)4] with some of macrocyclic Schiff base ligands containing N4 donor groups. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, H, C NMR, mass, electronic, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. An octahedral ...

Two new dimacrolide sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloids (DMSPAs), dimacroregelines A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the stems of Tripterygium regelii. The structures of both compounds were characterized by extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses, as well as HRESIMS data. Compounds 1 and 2 are two rare DMSPAs possessing unique 2-(3'-carboxybutyl)-3-furanoic acid units forming the second m...
