Titration Technique

Using spectrophotometric titration technique, the processes of complex formation of some phenylazo-derivatives of methylphloroglucinol (MPG) containing hydroxo-, nitro- and nitroso-substituents were studied. The spectral criteria of neutral and ionized forms of the organic ligands in their different tautomeric forms were determined.It was detected that the complex formation is accompanied by formation of one or two chelate cycles which involve azo- or nitroso-fragments and neighboring OH-groups of the organic ligands. Different types of coordination lead to different changes in the electronic absorption spectra.The DFT-B3LYP modeling of a Ni(II) complex of α-hydroxyphenylazo MPG established the most probable coordination mode of the organic ligand: tridentate chelating dianion, distorted square coordination of Ni-cations including one water molecule.  The theoretical results are in a good accordance with the experimental data.

Electrostatic Effects

The influence of methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol, and propan-2-ol on the dissociation of tyrosines of human serum orosomucoid (acid α1-glycoprotein) was studied. The content of alcohols was chosen so that their solutions had the same value of the relative permittivity. Then, the contribution of electrostatic effects was equal in all cases and the observed differences between aqueous and alcoholic solutions reflected other, nonelectrostatic effects in the studied systems. Analysis of the spectrophotometric titration curve revealed three kinds of tyrosine groups (n1, n2, n3), but only the values pK1 and pK2 could be calculated. The observed differences of pK values in aqueous and mixed media are discussed and compared with the structural changes of the orosomucoid molecule.

A synthetic procedure is described for the preparation of the tetradentate N2O2 ligands H2[H4]L1=6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,5-diaza-3,3-dimethyl-1-(2-hydroxy-3-t-butyl-5-methyl- phenyl)heptane, H2[H2]L1 = 6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,5-diaza-3,3-dimethyl-1-(2-hydroxy-3-t-butyl-5-methylphenyl)-1-heptene, and H2L1 = 6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,5-diaza-3,3-dimethyl-1-(2- hydroxy-3-t-butyl-5-methylphenyl)-1,5-heptadiene, which are asymmetric derivatives of the ligands tetrahydrosalen, dihydrosalen, and salen. Complexes Ni[H4]L1, Ni[H2]L1, NiL1, CoL1, Ni[H4]L2 (([H4]L2)2- = anion of H2[H4]L2 = N,N'-bis(2-hydroxy-3-t-butyl-5-methylbenzyl)- trans-(S,S)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane), and NiL2 were prepared, characterized (VIS and IR ab­sorption, magnetic moment) and subjected to spectrophotometric titration with pyridine, to determine the equilibrium constants for adduct formation. Single crystal X-ray structure analy­ses were carried out for Ni[H2]L1 (monoclinic, P21/n; a = 8.926(4), b = 29.324(7), c = 8.411(4) Å; β = 95.3(1)°; Z = 4), CoL1 (monoclinic, C2/c; a = 25.389(2), b = 18.139(2), c = 10.179(1) Å; β = 112.227(6); Z = 8), and Ni[H4]L2·acetone (tetragonal, P41212; a = 13.928(3), c = 33.698(5) Å; Z = 8). In all of the three complexes, the N2O2-metal coordination core is square-planar. The skeleton of the tetradentate ligand is more or less twisted. The planar cobalt(II) complex CoL1 is a low spin d7 system with μexp = 2.02 BM at 298 K, whereas the planar complexes NiL1, Ni[H2]L1 and Ni[H4]L2 are diamagnetic (μexp = 0.28-0.64 BM). The blue solvate Ni[H4]L1- 3EtOH · H2O is paramagnetic (μexp = 3.04 BM), which points to octahedral coordination. In aerated acetone solution, the tetrahydrosalen-type complex Ni[H4]L1 activates dioxygen and one C-N bond is oxidatively dehydrogenated. The VIS spectrum of the dihydrosalen-type complex formed is virtually identical with that of the aldimine complex Ni[H2]L1. In the pres­ence of dioxygen, Co[H4]L1 and Co[H2]L1 are readily oxidized to CoL1 in acetone solution.

Potential Inhibitors

Lanosterol 14α-demethylases (hemoproteins of the cytochrome P450(51) family) are involved in biosynthesis of different membrane sterols, including animal cholesterol, fungal ergosterol and C24-modified plant and protozoa sterols. In this study we have investigated 10 structural analogs of lanosterol isolated from echinoderms belonging to the class Asteroidea as potential ligands (competitive inhibitors) of human and Candida albicans cytochromes P450(51). The study was performed using the surface plasmon resonance method, spectrophotometric titration and enzyme assay. Among the compounds tested we found several selective ligands for human and Candida albicans cytochromes. Between selective ligands of the human lanosterol 14α-demethylase we found two novel inhibitors of this enzyme: henricioside H1 and levisculoside G from Henricia derjugini. With due consideration of obtained data, we conclude that marine organisms from the class Asteroidea can be a valuable source of new lead compounds for creation of selective inhibitors of cytochromes P450(51) family with less side effects due to their selective action on these enzymes in different types of organisms.
