    Trapping Ag(I) ions by a Pd8 metallacrown molecule to form an unusual nonanuclear AgPd8 cation
    (Inorganica Chimica Acta, 2019) Calleja, Fernando B.; Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Perles Hernáez, Josefina; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes
    The {[Pd(µ-SC6F5)(µ-dppm)Pd](µ-SC6F5)}4 (dppm = methanediylbis(diphenylphosphane)) (Pd8) metallacrown traps Ag(I) cations giving {Ag[Pd(µ3-SC6F5)(µ-dppm)Pd]4(µ-SC6F5)4}(X) (X = SO3CF3− (AgPd8a), SbF6− (AgPd8b) and ClO4− (AgPd8c)) and {Ag[Pd(µ3-SC6F5)(µ-dppm)Pd]4(µ-SC6F5)4}2[Pt(C6F5)4] (AgPd8d). The insertion of silver increases significantly the stability of the cluster that is stable in solution even in the presence of light, because of the macrocyclic effect

    Overcoming Resistance of Caco‑2 Cells to 5‑Fluorouracil through Diruthenium Complex Encapsulation in PMMA Nanoparticles
    (Inorganic Chemistry, 2024) Coloma Manjón-Cabeza, Isabel; Parrón Ballesteros, Jorge; Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Cuerva de Alaiz, Cristian; Turnay Abad, Francisco Javier; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago
    Drug resistance, one of the main drawbacks in cancer chemotherapy, can be tackled by employing a combination of drugs that target different biological processes in the cell, enhancing the therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new paddlewheel diruthenium complex that includes 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), a commonly used anticancer drug. This drug was functionalized with a carboxylate group to take advantage of the previously demonstrated release capacity of carboxylate ligands from the diruthenium core. The resulting hydrophobic complex, [Ru2Cl(DPhF)3(5-FUA)] (Ru-5-FUA) (DPhF = N,N′-diphenylformamidinate; 5-FUA = 5-fluorouracil-1-acetate) was subsequently entrapped in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanoparticles (PMMA@Ru-5-FUA) via a reprecipitation method to be transported in biological media. The optimized encapsulation procedure yielded particles with an average size of 81.2 nm, a PDI of 0.11, and a zeta potential of 29.2 mV. The cytotoxicity of the particles was tested in vitro using the human colon carcinoma cell line Caco-2. The IC50 (half maximal inhibitory concentration) of PMMA@Ru-5-FUA (6.08 μM) was just slightly lower than that found for the drug 5-FU (7.64 μM). Most importantly, while cells seemed to have developed drug resistance against 5-FU, PMMA@Ru-5-FUA showed an almost complete lethality at ∼30 μM. Conversely, an analogous diruthenium complex devoid of the 5-FU moiety, [Ru2Cl(DPhF)3(O2CCH3)] (PMMA@RuA), displayed a reduced cytotoxicity at equivalent concentrations. These findings highlight the effect of combining the anticancer properties of 5-FU with those of diruthenium species. This suggests that the distinct modes of action of the two chemical species are crucial for overcoming drug resistance.

    Tetracarbonatodiruthenium Fragments and Lanthanide(III) Ions as Building Blocks to Construct 2D Coordination Polymers
    (Polymers, 2019) Gutiérrez Martín, Daniel; Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Martín Humanes, Álvaro; González Prieto, Rodrigo; Delgado Martínez, Patricia; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago; Priego Bermejo, José Luis; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes
    Two-dimensional coordination polymers of [Pr(DMSO)2(OH2)3][Ru2(CO3)4(DMSO)(OH2)]·5H2O (Prα) and [Ln(OH2)5][Ru2(CO3)4(DMSO)]·xH2O (Ln = Sm (Smβ), Gd (Gdβ)) formulae have been obtained by reaction of the corresponding Ln(NO3)3·6H2O dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and K3[Ru2(CO3)4]·4H2O dissolved in water. Some DMSO molecules are coordinated to the metal atoms reducing the possibilities of connection between the [Ru2(CO3)4]3− and Ln3+ building blocks giving rise to the formation of two-dimensional networks. The size of the Ln3+ ion and the synthetic method seem to have an important influence in the type of two-dimensional structure obtained. Slow diffusion of the reagents gives rise to Prα that forms a 2D net that is built by Ln3+ ions as triconnected nodes and two types of Ru25+ units as bi- and tetraconnected nodes with (2-c)(3-c)2(4-c) stoichiometry (α structure). An analogous synthetic procedure gives Smβ and Gdβ that display a grid-like structure, (2-c)2(4-c)2, formed by biconnected Ln3+ ions and two types of tetraconnected Ru25+ fragments (β structure). The magnetic properties of these compounds are basically explained as the sum of the individual contributions of diruthenium and lanthanide species, although canted ferrimagnetism or weak ferromagnetism are observed at low temperature.

    Microwave and solvothermal methods for the synthesis of nickel and ruthenium complexes with 9-anthracene carboxylate ligand
    (Inorganica Chimica Acta, 2015) Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Delgado-Martínez, Patricia; González Prieto, Rodrigo; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes; Perles Hernáez, Josefina; Priego Bermejo, José Luis; M.R. Torres
    Microwave and solvothermal activation processes have been explored as tools for the preparation of various nickel and ruthenium complexes. Different reaction conditions are tested using ethanol or water as solvents. Three nickel derivatives, [Ni(9-atc)2(OH2)2(py)2]·2EtOH (1), [Ni2(9-atc)4(OH2)(py)4]·2H2O (2·2H2O), and [Ni2(9-atc)4(py)2] (3), and two diruthenium compounds, {[Ru2Cl(9-atc)4]·2H2O}n (4) and [Ru2(9-atc)4(EtOH)2]·2EtOH (5), are obtained. The crystal structure determination of complexes 1-3 and 5 is also described. Compound 1 displays a 1D extended supramolecular structure with hydrogen bonds involving crystallization solvent molecules. Compound 2 is dimetallic, and both nickel centers show an octahedral coordination environment, whereas complexes 3 and 5 display a typical carboxylate-bridged paddlewheel-type structure with two metal atoms connected by four bridging carboxylate ligands. All compounds show weak antiferromagnetic interactions except 3, where a strong intra-dimer antiferromagnetic coupling is observed. Compound 4 also shows a strong zero field splitting.

    Heteronuclear Dirhodium-Gold Anionic Complexes: Polymeric Chains and Discrete Units
    (Polymers, 2020) Fernández Bartolomé, Estefanía; Paula Cruz; Abad Galán, Laura; Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Patricia Delgado-Martínez; González Prieto, Rodrigo; Priego Bermejo, José Luis; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes
    In this article, we report on the synthesis and characterization of the tetracarboxylatodirhodium(II) complexes [Rh2(μ–O2CCH2OMe)4(THF)2] (1) and [Rh2(μ–O2CC6H4–p–CMe3)4(OH2)2] (2) by metathesis reaction of [Rh2(μ–O2CMe)4] with the corresponding ligand acting also as the reaction solvent. The reaction of the corresponding tetracarboxylato precursor, [Rh2(μ–O2CR)4], with PPh4[Au(CN)2] at room temperature, yielded the one-dimensional polymers (PPh4)n[Rh2(μ–O2CR)4Au(CN)2]n (R = Me (3), CH2OMe (4), CH2OEt (5)) and the non-polymeric compounds (PPh4)2{Rh2(μ–O2CR)4[Au(CN)2]2} (R = CMe3 (6), C6H4–p–CMe3 (7)). The structural characterization of 1, 3·2CH2Cl2, 4·3CH2Cl2, 5, 6, and 7·2OCMe2 is also provided with a detailed description of their crystal structures and intermolecular interactions. The polymeric compounds 3·2CH2Cl2, 4·3CH2Cl2, and 5 show wavy chains with Rh–Au–Rh and Rh–N–C angles in the ranges 177.18°–178.69° and 163.0°–170.4°, respectively. A comparative study with related rhodium-silver complexes previously reported indicates no significant influence of the gold or silver atoms in the solid-state arrangement of these kinds of complexes.

    (ChemPlusChem, 2014) Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago; Belén Jerez; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes; Perles Hernáez, Josefina; Priego Bermejo, José Luis; Tortajada Pérez, José
    Five nickel complexes, [Ni2(3,4,5-tmb)4(4,4 ′-bpy)] (1), [Ni2(2-ntc)4(4,4 ′-bpy)] (2), [Ni(9-atc)2(4,4 ′-bpy)] (3), [Ni(3,4,5-tmb)2(t-bpee) ] (4), and [Ni2(2-ntc)4(t-bpee)2] (5) (3,4,5-tmb=3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate; 2-ntc=2-naphthalenecarboxylate; 9-atc=9-anthracenecarboxylate; 4,4 ′-bpy=4,4 ′-bipyridine; t-bpee=trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene), are prepared. They are characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. 1 and 2 form linear chains of paddlewheel units joined by 4,4 ′-bpy ligands; 3 and 4 display zigzag chains formed by cis-bis(chelate) Ni(O2CR)2 units joined by 4,4 ′-bpy and t-bpee, respectively; and the structure of 5 consists of double chains. The magnetic behavior of the compounds is also studied, and DFT calculations using the broken-symmetry approximation are performed to gain a better understanding of the strong antiferromagnetism found in 1. © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Tuning of Adsorption and Magnetic Properties in a Series of Self-Templated Isostructural Ni(II) Metal−Organic Frameworks
    (Crystal Growth and Design, 2013) Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes; Perles Hernáez, Josefina; Priego Bermejo, José Luis; Javier Torroba
    An isomorphous series of five metal–organic frameworks of formula [Ni4(O2CR)(OH)2(4-pyc)5] [4-pyc = 4-pyridinecarboxylate or isonicotinate; R = C6H5 (1), 4-OMe-C6H4 (2), 2,6-(OMe)2-C6H3 (3), 3,5-(OMe)2-C6H3 (4), 3,4,5-(OMe)3-C6H2 (5)] were obtained by solvothermal reactions. These compounds display a three-dimensional framework where the nickel atoms are coordinated to the hydroxyde anions and two different organic ligands: isonicotinate and phenylcarboxylate. Both hydroxyde (μ3-OH) and phenylcarboxylate (μ3-1κO,2κO,3κO′) ligands are coordinated to nickel atoms of the same secondary building unit (SBU). The SBU consists of four edge-sharing NiA6 octahedra (A = O, N). The isonicotinate ligands, however, act as linkers between SBUs displaying three different coordination modes: μ-1κN,2κO; μ3-1κN,2κO,3κO′; and μ4-1κN,2:3κ2O,4κO′. Nitrogen adsorption measurements were done to obtain textural parameters of these microporous networks. Micropore size distributions indicate cylindrical pores with diameters of approximately 0.80 nm. The values of Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface areas (SBET) obtained are in the range of 382–488 m2/g, and the micropore volumes are between 0.13 cm3/g and 0.19 cm3/g. Both parameters are influenced by the substitution grade and position of the methoxy groups of the phenylcarboxylate ligand. The magnetic properties, which also depend on the arylcarboxylate ligands, vary from compound 1 (with only antiferromagnetic interactions) to compound 5, which shows a spin glass behavior (Tg = 15 K).

    Tris(ethylenediamine) Cobalt(II) and Manganese(II) Nitrates
    (Crystals, 2020) Cortijo Montes, Miguel; Valentín-Pérez, Ángela; Rouzières, Mathieu; Clérac, Rodolphe; Rosa, Patrick; Hillard, Elizabeth A.
    Octahedral tris(ethylenediamine) coordination complexes demonstrate helicoidal chirality, due to the arrangement of the ligands around the metal core. The enantiomers of the nitrate salts [Ni(en)3](NO3)2 and [Zn(en)3](NO3)2 spontaneously resolve to form a mixture of conglomerate crystals, which present a reversible phase transition from space group P6322 to enantiomorphic P6522 or P6122, with the latter depending on the handedness of the enantiomer. We report here the synthesis and characterization of [Mn(en)3](NO3)2 and [Co(en)3](NO3)2, which are isostructural to the Zn(II) and Ni(II) derivatives. The Mn(II) analogue undergoes the same phase transition centered at 150(2) K, as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. The Co(II) derivative does not demonstrate a phase transition down to 2 K, as evidenced by powder X-ray diffraction and heat capacity measurements. The phase transition does not impact the magnetic properties of the Ni(II) and Mn(II) analogues; these high spin compounds display Curie behavior that is consistent with S = 1 and 5/2, respectively, down to 20 K, while the temperature-dependent magnetic moment for the Co(II) compound reveals a significant orbital contribution.

    Linear One-Dimensional Coordination Polymers Constructed by Dirhodium Paddlewheel and Tetracyanido-Metallate Building Blocks
    (Crystals, 2019) Prior, David; Cortijo Montes, Miguel; González Prieto, Rodrigo; Herrero Domínguez, Santiago; Jiménez Aparicio, Reyes; Perles Hernáez, Josefina; Priego Bermejo, José Luis
    In this article, we describe the preparation of anionic heteronuclear one-dimensional coordination polymers made by dirhodium paddlewheels and tetracyanido-metallatate building blocks. A series of complexes of (PPh4)2n[{Rh2(µ-O2CCH3)4}{M(CN)4}]n (M = Ni (1), Pd (2), Pt (3)) formulae were obtained by reaction of [Rh2(μ-O2CCH3)4] with (PPh4)2[M(CN)4] in a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio. Crystals of 1−3 suitable for single crystal X-ray diffraction were grown by slow diffusion of a dichloromethane solution of the dirhodium complex into a chloroform solution of the corresponding tetracyanido–metallatate salt. Compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural and crystallize in the triclinic P-1 space group, while compound 3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/n space group. A detailed description of the structures is presented, including the analysis of the packing of anionic chains and PPh4+ cations.
