Abstract

The reaction of dichlorodimethylsilane with a polydentate Schiff base ligand derived from pyridoxal and 2-ethanolamine yielded the macrocyclic silicon compound (8 E ,22 E )-4,4,12,18,18,26-hexamethyl-3,5,17,19-tetraoxa-8,13,22,27-tetraaza-4,18-disilatricyclo[22.4.0.0 10,15 ]octacosa-1(24),8,10,12,14,22,25,27-octaene-11,25-diol, C 24 H 36 N 4 O 6 Si 2 . The asymmetric unit contains the half macrocycle with an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond between the imine nitrogen atom and a neighbouring oxygen atom. The crystal structure is dominated by C—H...O and C—H...π interactions, which form a high ordered molecular network.

The reaction of dichlorodimethylsilane with a polydentate Schiff base ligand
derived from pyridoxal and 2-ethanolamine yielded the macrocyclic silicon

1. Chemical context
The heterocyclic aldehyde pyridoxal is one of the active forms
of vitamin B
6
. This vitamin is an essential cofactor to a large
number of enzymes that catalyze many reactions of amino
acids (Sykes et al., 1991). The coordination chemistry of Schiff
bases generated from amino acids and pyridoxal with trans-
ition metal ions has been investigated intensive (Christensen,
1957; Long et al., 1980; Dawes et al., 1982; Walz et al., 1983; Rao
et al., 1985; Astheimer et al., 1985; Sykes et al., 1991; Costa
Pessoa et al., 1999). We are working on silicon complexes with
tridentate O,N,O-ligands (Bo
¨hme & Gu
¨nther, 2007a;Bo
¨hme
et al., 2006; Paul et al., 2014; Warncke et al., 2012; Schwarzer et
al., 2018). Therefore, we prepared a Schiff base from pyridoxal
and 2-aminoethanol as a potential O,N,O-ligand. The crystal
structure of this molecule, 4-[(2-hydroxyethyl)iminomethyl]-5-
hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyridine-3-ol (I), was published
earlier (Bo
¨hme & Gu
¨nther, 2007b). Compound (I) was used
recently as ligand molecule to coordinate copper and silver
ions (Annaraj & Neelakantan, 2014, 2015). Herein we report
the results of reaction between (I) and dichlorodimethylsilane.
There are several potential coordination sites at the ligand
molecule (I): the pyridine and the imino nitrogen atoms, two
aliphatic and one phenolic hydroxyl groups. The presence of
these functional groups makes it difficult to predict the
structure of the reaction product with dichlorodimethylsilane.
It was our initial goal to prepare a pentacoordinate silicon
complex like (II). Surprisingly the macrocyclic silicon
compound (III) was obtained from the reaction of (I) with
Me
2
SiCl
2
. The reaction was performed in tetrahydrofuran in
presence of triethylamine as supporting base to remove the
hydrogen chloride, which is formed during the reaction.
Recrystallization of the raw product from 1,2-dimethoxy-
ethane and diethyl ether gave yellow crystals suitable for
structure analysis.

2. Structural commentary
Compound (III) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group I2/c
with the half macrocycle in the asymmetric unit. Fig. 1 shows
the asymmetric unit and the atomic labelling scheme. The
macrocycle is generated by a crystallographic C2 axis through
the centre of the macrocycle (Fig. 2). The silicon atom is
bound to the two methyl groups and to the aliphatic oxygen
atoms O2 and O3, thus forming a macrocycle (Fig. 2). A quite
similar macrocycle has been obtained from the reaction of a
related pyridoxal-derived Schiff base and dichlorodiphenyl-
silane (Bo
¨hme et al., 2008). The short Si—O bonds (see
Table 1) are in the range for comparable Si—O bonds (Wagler
et al., 2005; Bo
¨hme et al., 2006, 2008; Bo
¨hme & Gu
¨nther, 2007a;
Bo
¨hme & Foehn, 2007). The silicon atom is distorted tetra-
hedral with bond angles between 103.40 (5) and 113.16 (7)
(Table 1). The rather large bond angles at the oxygen atoms
(see Table 1) have been explained by the ionic character of the
Si—O bonds (Gillespie & Johnson, 1997). There is a strong
intramolecular O—HN interaction (entry 1, Table 2)
between the imine nitrogen atom N2 and the O1—H1 group in
the neighbouring position at the pyridoxal ring. The formation
of hydrogen bridges between the imine nitrogen atom and an
ortho-hydroxyl group is a feature that is often observed in
Schiff bases with o-hydroxy groups (Ho
¨kelek et al., 2004;
Filarowski et al., 1999). This strong intramolecular O—HN
interaction leads to a six-membered pseudo ring consisting of
H1—O1—C2—C3—C7—N2. This pseudo ring is planar with
an r.m.s. deviation of 0.009 A
˚from the ring plane. According
to the graph-set notation proposed by Etter et al. (1990), these

hydrogen bonds form motifs with an S1
1(6) graph-set
descriptor. The hydrogen bonds C7—H7O3 link different
parts within one macrocycle via intra-annular hydrogen bonds
(Fig. 2).
3. Supramolecular features
A bifurcated intermolecular C—HO interaction is
observed at O2 (Table 2). The interaction of C6—H6AO2
and C5—H5O1 results in a chain along the crystallographic
b-axis. The C—HO interaction of C9—H9Bwith O2
connects adjacent chains (Fig. 3).
Apart from the relevant C—HO interaction, two C—
Hcontacts with the pyridine moiety (Cg1) are observed.
First, a bifurcation at H9B(d=3.31A
˚) shows up within the
C—HO chains along the caxis. Furthermore, C11—
H11ACg1(d=2.85A
˚) supports the C—HO interactions
of H5 and H6A.
In summary, the crystal structure is dominated by C—
HO and C—Hinteractions, forming a highly ordered
molecular network.
The potential bonding sites in combination with the cavity
of the macrocycle makes (III) a suitable candidate for
supramolecular recognition processes. The available pyridine
N, azomethine N, and OH groups could be useful for the
generation of nanostructures via complexation with transition
metals (Leininger et al., 2000).
4. Database survey
A CSD search with ConQuest (Bruno et al., 2002) for
macrocycles containing Schiff bases from pyridoxal and
2-aminoalcohols showed that only one comparable silicon
compound exists (Bo
¨hme et al., 2008, refcode MOKVEO).
The main differences between these two structures of silicon-
containing macrocycles are as follows. First, (III) was found to
crystallize without solvent while MOKVEO encloses chloro-
fom molecules. Probably as a result, the symmetry is lower in
MOKVEO (triclinic, P1) than in (III) showing the monoclinic
I2/csymmetry. On the basis of the structure of (III) presented
here and the former investigation (Bo
¨hme et al., 2008), it can
be assumed that pyridoxalimine-derived Schiff bases prefer
the formation of macrocycles with diorganosilane units.
However, it seems to be possible that compound (I) can also
act as a tridentate O,N,O-ligand, as was shown recently with a
hexacoordinate titanium complex (Bo
¨hme & Gu
¨nther, 2020).
5. Synthesis and crystallization
The preparation of (III) was performed in Schlenk tubes
under argon with dry and air-free solvents.
Compound (III) was prepared by reaction of 4-[(2-hy-
droxyethyl)iminomethyl]-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyridine-
3-ol (I) (1.7 g, 8 mmol) with dichlorodimethylsilane (1.03 g,
8 mmol) in the presence of triethylamine (2.02 g, 20 mmol).
The reaction was performed in dry tetrahydrofuran at room
temperature. A white precipitate of triethylamine hydro-
chloride formed upon stirring of the mixture for five days.
After this period, the triethylamine hydrochloride was filtered
off and washed with tetrahydrofuran. The solvent was
removed in vacuo from the resulting clear yellow solution. The
remaining solid was extracted with 1,2-dimethoxyethane.
Addition of diethyl ether and cooling to 278 K yielded yellow
crystals of (III) (1.66 g, 78%, m.p. 390 K).

6. Refinement
Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details
are summarized in Table 3. The hydrogen atom at O1 was
refined freely. The methyl groups were refined as idealized
rigid groups allowed to rotate but not tip (AFIX 137; C—H =
0.98 A
˚, H—C—H = 109.5). Other hydrogens were included
using a riding model starting from calculated positions (C—
H
aromatic

methylene
=0.99A
˚). The U
iso
(H) values
were fixed at 1.5 (for the methyl H) or 1.2 times the equivalent
U
eq
value of the parent carbon atoms.

Special details
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance
matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles;
correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate
(isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

The reaction of (S)-N-[(2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylidene]valine (H2L), 1, with organoelement halides from group 4 and 14 leads to different hypercoordinated complexes depending on the substitution of the starting material. The dianion of 1 therein acts as tridentate ligand in κ³O,N,O’ coordination mode. Complexes with silicon, germanium, tin, and titanium have been prepared in that way and are presented here as proof of concept. With one exception diorganoelement chlorides R2ECl2 yield pentacoordinate complexes LER2. Element tetrachlorides yield hexacoordinate complexes L2E. The prepared compounds were characterized via NMR, IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy, elemental and X-ray structure analysis. Furthermore solid state NMR measurements and chemical shift tensor analysis with the help of quantum chemical methods were used to investigate the electron density distribution around the central atoms of several products. This study demonstrates the ability of 1 to form chiral hypercoordinate complexes with different elements.

The improvements in the crystal structure refinement program SHELXL have been closely coupled with the development and increasing importance of the CIF (Crystallographic Information Framework) format for validating and archiving crystal structures. An important simplification is that now only one file in CIF format (for convenience, referred to simply as `a CIF') containing embedded reflection data and SHELXL instructions is needed for a complete structure archive; the program SHREDCIF can be used to extract the .hkl and .ins files required for further refinement with SHELXL. Recent developments in SHELXL facilitate refinement against neutron diffraction data, the treatment of H atoms, the determination of absolute structure, the input of partial structure factors and the refinement of twinned and disordered structures. SHELXL is available free to academics for the Windows, Linux and Mac OS X operating systems, and is particularly suitable for multiple-core processors.

The synthesis and characterization of Copper(II) complexes of a Schiff base derived from vitamin B6 component (pyridoxal) and ethanol amine [CuL2] (1), and its mixed ligand complexes [Cu(L)(N,N')]NO3, where N,N' is bipyridine (2) and 1,10-phenanthroline (3) are reported, including the X-ray crystal structures of [CuL2] (1). The crystal structure of 1 has square planar geometry with ligand to the metal ratio 2:1. The molecules are assembled in 3D supramolecular structure through hydrogen bonding interactions. DNA is considered as the major pharmacological target of metal based drugs, the objective of the present work includes the understanding of DNA binding mode of the synthesized compounds. The complexes bind with DNA through non intercalative interaction has been evidenced from the results of UV-Visible and fluorescence spectral titrations. It is further validated by molecular docking studies. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding studies revealed that the complexes can strongly quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA through a static quenching mechanism. The complexes promote the DNA cleavage even in the absence of additives which follows the order 2 > 1 > 3. Further, the complexes show potential cytotoxicity towards human breast cancer cell MCF-7 and induce the cell death. Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

Design and synthesis was performed with the aim of producing water soluble pyridine containing Schiff base as chemosensor. The chemosensor (L) was synthesized by reaction between pyridoxal and 2-aminoethanol and comprehensively characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic methods (IR, UV−vis, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy), ESI mass spectrometry, and by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The designed compound shows excellent specificity and sensitivity (detection limit = 4.18 × 10−6 M) towards Ag+ ions over other interfering cations (Na+, K+, Li+, Ca2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Hg2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Zn2+and Pb2+) in aqueous solution. The L showed a selective chromogenic behavior towards Ag+ ions by changing the color of the solution from light yellow to red, which can be detected with naked eye. Simple and cost effective test kit has been prepared for the detection of silver ion in water samples. The TD-DFT calculations were carried out to understand the sensing mechanism.

The reaction of salicylaldehyde-(2-hydroxyethyl)imine (H2L), 1, with organoelement halides from group 13 and 14 leads to a variety of coordination compounds. Depending on the size of the central atom and the organic substituents, tetra-, penta- or hexacoordinated complexes emerge. When the central atom of the complex has a small atom radius and small substituents, like methyl groups, coordination number four is preferred. Thereby macrocyclic compounds of the composition L2(SiMeR)2 (R = Me, cyclohexyl) are formed. With phenyl substituted element halides Ph2ECl2 pentacoordinated complexes LEPh2 (E = Si, Ge, Sn) were isolated. Hexacoordinated complexes of the composition L2E (E = Si, Sn) were obtained from ECl4 and 1. A surprising result was obtained from the reaction of 1 with InCl3. The resulting complex is a monoanionic trimer, obeying the composition [HNEt3][L3In3Cl3(μ3-OH)]·(DME)2(THF) in the solid state structure. The prepared compounds were characterised by NMR and IR spectroscopy, elemental and X-ray structure analysis. Furthermore solid state NMR measurements and chemical shift tensor analysis with the help of quantum chemical methods were used to analyse the electron density distribution around the central atoms of several products. The results of this study demonstrate the structural variety that can be created with a single O,N,O′ chelating ligand.

The WinGX suite provides a complete set of programs for the treatment of small‐molecule single‐crystal diffraction data, from data reduction and processing, structure solution, model refinement and visualization, and metric analysis of molecular geometry and crystal packing, to final report preparation in the form of a CIF. It includes several well known pieces of software and provides a repository for programs when the original authors no longer wish to, or are unable to, maintain them. It also provides menu items to execute external software, such as the SIR and SHELX suites of programs. The program ORTEP for Windows provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for the classic ORTEP program, which is the original software for the illustration of anisotropic displacement ellipsoids. The GUI code provides input capabilities for a wide variety of file formats, and extra functionality such as geometry calculations and ray‐traced outputs. The programs WinGX and ORTEP for Windows have been distributed over the internet for about 15 years, and this article describes some of the more modern features of the programs.

Structures are reported for (pyridoxylidene-DL-valinato)copper(II), a = 25.640(2), c = 13.326(2) Å, γ = 120°, space group R, Z = 8 and (3-methoxysalicylidene-DL-valinato)copper(II), a = 23.515(8), b = 9.194(4), c = 17.034(6) Å, β = 126.41(7)°, space group C2/c, Z = 8. The former compound is polymeric with square-pyramidal co-ordination to copper involving five donor atoms of the ligand; the latter is monomeric with planar co-ordination geometry which includes a donor oxygen from water. Attention is drawn to bond length changes in the pyridoxylidene compound which, it is suggested, can be associated with reactivity.

The crystal and molecular structures of the title compounds [Cu4L34]·9CH3OH (3) and [Cu4L14]·8CH3CH2OH (4) have been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data and refined to final R values of 0.062 (R′= 0.052) using 2 191 independent reflections for (3) and 0.062 (R′= 0.055) using 2 458 independent reflections for (4). Both tetrameric complexes crystallize in the tetragonal space group P42/n with two molecules in an unit cell with dimensions a= 18.193(4) and c= 12.615(4)Å for (3) and a= 17.991(4) and c= 14.296(4)Å for (4). Both molecules exhibit the highest possible point symmetry . While compound (3) is comparable with its 4′-(3″,4″-dichlorophenyl) derivative [Cu4L24]·9CH3OH (2) which crystallizes in a monoclinic lattice having an infinite network of hydrogen bonds, (4) is isomorphous to [Cu4L14]·8CH3OH (1). Moreover these two forms of structures are distinguishable by the considerably larger Cu–O distance between two pseudo-monomeric units within the pseudo-dimeric unit in (1) and (4) compared with (2) and (3). The magnetism of the two complexes can be explained on the basis of the isotropic Heisenberg–Dirac–van Vleck model. Compound (4) is very similar in its magnetic behaviour [g= 2.16(2), J12= 0 (fixed), J13= 17.4(2.0) cm–1, and θ=–1.8(1.0) K] to (1). In contrast to (2), compound (3) definitely has a ferromagnetic ground state [g= 2.085(20), J12=–7.1(2.0), and J13= 28.5(2.0) cm–1]. The principal difficulties of fitting theoretical magnetic susceptibility equations to experimental ones in ferromagnetically coupled systems is discussed. The discrepancy of the magnetic exchange constants between (3) and (2) which has really C1 symmetry is discussed in order to test by which model of higher symmetry the magnetism of this compound can be optimally described. It can be shown that a C2v model leads to more plausible exchange constants for (2) with regard to the geometrical sizes of the highly distorted molecule.

The crystal structures of two Schiff-base metal complexes, aqua (5′-phosphopyridoxylideneglycinato)copper(II) trihydrate, [Cu(P-Pxd-Gly)(H2O)]·3H2O (1), and bis(pyridoxylideneglycinato)nickel(II) hexahydrate, [Ni(Pxd-Gly)2]·6H2O (2), have been determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Compound (1) crystallizes in space group P with a= 8.394(4), b= 9.819(8), c= 10.884(7)Å, α= 101.85(6), β= 97.48(5), γ= 112.60(5)°, and Z= 2; compound (2) crystallizes in space group Pnna with a= 20.233(3), b= 19.423(3), c= 13.956(3)Å, and Z= 8. The structures were solved by the heavy-atom method and refined to R values of 0.064 and 0.129 respectively. The CuII ion has a square-pyramidal geometry in compound (1) with phenolic oxygen, imine nitrogen, and carboxylate oxygen atoms of the Schiff-base ligand and a water molecule as basal donors. The compound is a one-dimensional polymer due to the axial coordination of one of the phosphate oxygens of a neighbouring molecule. The two tridentate Schiffbase ligands provide an octahedral geometry around the NiII ion in compound (2).The nearplanarity of the ligand in compound (1) and non-planarity in compound (2) are discussed in terms of the relative reactivities.
