Complessi tetrazolici di Re(I): design e preparazione di una nuova classe di probes luminescenti

In this experimental work we report the design, the synthesis and characterization of a new class of Re(I) complexes of the general formula fac-[Re(CO)3(N^N)(2-QTZ)], where N^N = 2,2’ bipyridine or 1,10 phenantroline, whereas 2-QTZ is the anion 2-quinolyl-tetrazolate. The complexes and, in particular, the tetrazolate ligand 2-QTZ were designed in order to investigate their specific interaction with biologically and toxicologically relevant metal ions, as Zn(II), Cd(II) e Cu(II). The addition of such ions led to substantial variations of the photophysical properties of these complexes, suggesting their application as luminescent sensors. The photophysical performance of the complexes proved to remain unchanged inside cellular substrates, as Yarrowia Lipolytica cultures. Within these yeasts, the complexes show unchanged ability to perform luminescent sensing towards Zn(II) and Cd(II) ions.

Développement de nouveaux matériaux organométalliques pour des applications dans le domaine de la conversion d’énergie solaire

Dans un contexte où l’approvisionnement énergétique mondial du 21e siècle est un enjeu majeur, le développement de sources d’énergie renouvelables suscite l’attention croissante de la communauté scientifique et industrielle. L’énergie solaire est définitivement l’une des meilleures alternatives aux combustibles fossiles en tant que source d’énergie du monde de demain. Ce mémoire traite donc du développement de nouveaux matériaux organométalliques pour des applications de photorécoltage d’énergie en photovoltaïque et en production d’hydrogène. Le premier chapitre présente la synthèse assistée par microondes de quatre nouveaux complexes de Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) et Zn(II) basés sur le ligand tétra-p-méthoxyphényl-azadipyrrométhène (ADPM) avec des rendements variant de 89% à quantitatif. Ces complexes sont mis en relation avec d’autres complexes homoleptiques connus portant le tétraphényl-ADPM comme ligand ainsi qu’avec leurs chélates de BF2+ pour une meilleure compréhension des tendances engendrées par la substitution de l’agent coordonnant et/ou des substituants p-méthoxy. Pour ce faire, le comportement électrochimique et photophysique est présenté. De façon générale, la présence des quatre groupements p-méthoxy semble rendre les dérivés de cet ADPM plus susceptibles à la dégradation électrochimique en conditions d’oxydation et induire un déplacement bathochromique des propriétés optiques d’absorption et d’émission. Les structures rayons X du ligand tétra-p-méthoxyphényl-ADPM et de son complexe homoleptique de Co(II) sont aussi discutées. Cette étude a été effectuée dans l’espoir de fournir des informations utiles sur la stabilité des ADPM aux chercheurs du domaine photovoltaïque en quête de nouveaux chromophores dans le proche infrarouge (NIR). Le deuxième chapitre présente quant à lui les propriétés de senseur envers les anions F-, OAc- et H2PO4- de deux nouveaux complexes neutres de Re(I) de type mono- et dinucléaire basés sur une phénanthroline substituée en position 5 contenant un récepteur thio-urée. Ces composés ont été obtenus dans des rendements de 81% et 60%, respectivement. L’effet de la formation de ponts hydrogène lors de l’ajout d’anions versus la déprotonation du récepteur a été évalué par des titrations UV/Vis et RMN 1H et semble indiquer que la formation de la base conjuguée du récepteur est favorisée pour ce type de système. De plus, la structure rayons X d’un des précurseurs est présentée et permet une discussion sur la chiralité des complexes mono- et dinucléaire obtenus. L’obtention d’un complexe bimétallique par autoassemblage ouvre la voie à la préparation d’antennes moléculaires pour des systèmes de photosynthèse artificielle.

Tricarbonyltechnetium(I) and -rhenium(I) complexes with N '-thiocarbamoylpicolylbenzamidines

N,N-Dialkylamino(thiocarbonyl)-N'-picolylbenzamidines react with (NEt4)(2)[M(CO)(3)X-3] (M = Re, X = Br: M = Tc, X = Cl) under formation of neutral [M(CO)(3)L] complexes in high yields. The monoanionic NNS ligands bind in a facial coordination mode and can readily be modified at the (CS)(NRR2)-R-1 moiety. The complexes [Tc-99(CO)(3)(L-PyMor)] and]Re(CO)(3)(L)] (L = L-PyMor, L-PyEt) were characterized by X-ray diffraction. Reactions of [Tc-99m(CO)(3)(H2O)(3)](+) with the N'-thiocarbamoylpicolylbenzamidines give the corresponding Tc-99m complexes. The ester group in HLPyCOOEr allows linkage between biomolecules and the metal core. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Derivatives of 1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositas versatile pentadentate ligands for protein labeling with Re-186/188. Prelabeling, biodistribution, and X-ray structural studies

The pentadentate H(3)bhci [1,3,5-trideoxy-1,3-bis((2-hydroxybenzyl)amino)-cis-inistol] and its bifunctionalized analogue H(3)bhci-glu-H [1,3,5-trideoxy-1,3-bis((2-hydroxybenzyl)amino)-5-glutaramido-cis-inositol] were synthesized, and their coordination chemistry was investigated with inactive rhenium, with no carrier added Re-188 and with carrier added Re-186. The neutral Re(V) complexes [ReO-(bhci)] and [ReO(bhci-glu-H)] are formed in good yields starting from [ReOCl3(P(C6H5)(3))(2)] or in quantitative yield directly from [(ReO4)-Re-186/188](-) in aqueous solution by reduction with Sn(II) or Sn(0). The X-ray structures of [ReO(bhci)] and [ReO(bhci-glu-H)] were elucidated revealing pentadentate side on coordination of the ligands to the Re=O core. The basic cyclohexane frame adopts a chair form in the case of [ReO(bhci)] and a twisted boat form in the case of [ReO(bhci-glu-H)]. [ReO(bhci)] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 27.425(3), b = 14.185(1), c = 19.047(2) Angstrom, and beta = 103.64(2)degrees and [ReO(bhci-glu-H)] in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c with a = 13.056(3), b = 10.180(1), c = 22.378(5) Angstrom and beta = 98.205(9)degrees Both Re-188 complexes are stable in human serum for at least 3 days without decomposition. After injection into mice, [ReO(bhci-glu)](-) is readily excreted through the intestines, while [ReO(bhci)] is excreted by intestines, liver, and the kidneys. TLC investigations of the urine showed exclusively the complexes [ReO(bhci-glu-H)] and [ReO(bhci)], respectively, and no decomposition products. For derivatization of antibodies, the carboxylic group of [ReO(bhci-glu-H)] was activated with N-hydroxysuccinimide, which required unusually vigorous reaction conditions (heating). The anti colon cancer antibody mAb-35 [IgG and F(ab')(2) fragment] was labeled with [(ReO)-Re-186/188(bhci-glu)] to a specific activity of up to 1.5 mCi/mg (55 MBq/mg) with full retention of immunoreactivity. Labeling yields followed pseudo-first-order kinetics in antibody concentration with the ratio of rates between aminolysis and hydrolysis being about 2. Biodistributions of Re-186-labeled intact mAb-35 as well as of its F(ab')(2) fragment in tumor-bearing nude mice revealed good uptake by the tumor with only low accumulation of radioactivity in normal tissue.

Synthesis and properties of d6 metal complexes of bidentate and tridentate ‘super donor’ ligands

La polyvalence de la réaction de couplage-croisé C-N a été explorée pour la synthèse de deux nouvelles classes de ligands: (i) des ligands bidentates neutres de type N^N et (ii) des ligands tridentates neutres de type N^N^N. Ces classes de ligands contiennent des N-hétérocycles aromatiques saturés qui sont couplés avec hexahydropyrimidopyrimidine (hpp). Les ligands forment de cycles à six chaînons sur la coordination du centre Ru(II). Ce fait est avantageux pour améliorer les propriétés photophysiques des complexes de polypyridyl de Ru(II). Les complexes de Ru(II) avec des ligands bidentés ont des émissions qui dépendent de la basicité relative des N-hétérocycles. Bien que ces complexes sont électrochimiquement et photophysiquement attrayant, le problème de la stereopurité ne peut être évité. Une conception soigneuse du type de ligand nous permet de synthétiser un ligand bis-bidentate qui est utile pour surmonter le problème de stereopurité. En raison de la spécialité du ligand bis-bidentate, son complexe diruthénium(II,II) présente une grande diastéréosélectivité sans séparation chirale. Alors que l'unité de hpp agit comme un nucléophile dans le mécanisme de C-N réaction de couplage croisé, il peut également agir en tant que groupe partant, lorsqu'il est activé avec un complexe de monoruthenium. Les complexes achiraux de Ru(II) avec les ligands tridentés présentent des meilleures propriétés photophysiques en comparason avec les prototypes [Ru(tpy)2]2+ (tpy = 2,2′: 6′, 2′′-terpyridine). L’introduction de deux unités de hpp dans les ligands tridentates rend le complexe de Ru(II) en tant que ‘absorbeur noir’ et comme ‘NIR émetteur’ (NIR = de l’anglais, Near Infra-Red). Cet effet est une conséquence d'une meilleure géométrie de coordination octaédrique autour de l'ion Ru(II) et de la forte donation sigma des unités hpp. Les complexes du Re(I) avec des ligands tridentates présentent un comportement redox intéressant et ils émettent dans le bleu. L'oxydation quasi-réversible du métal est contrôlée par la donation sigma des fragments hpp, tandis que la réduction du ligand est régie par la nature électronique du motif N-hétérocycle central du ligand lui-même. Cette thèse presente également l'auto-assemblage des métal-chromophores comme ‘métallo-ligands’ pour former des espèces supramoléculaires discretes utilisant des complexes neutres. Les synthèses et propriétés des métaux-chromophores précités et les supramolécules sont discutées.

Cu(I) and Ag(I) complexes of chalcogenide derivatives of the organometallic ligand dppf and the dppa analogue

New Cu(I) and Ag(I) complexes were prepared by reaction of [M(NCCH3)(4)][X] (M = Cu or Ag; X = BF4 or PF6) with the bidentate chalcogenide ligands Ph2P(E)NHP(E)Ph-2 (E = S, S(2)dppa; E = Se, Se(2)dppa), and dpspf (1, 1'-bis(diphenylselenophosphoryl)ferrocene). Copper and silver behaved differently. While three molecules of either S(2)dppa and Se(2)dppa bind to a distorted tetrahedral Cu-4 cluster, with deprotonation of the ligand, 1:2 complexes of the neutral ligands are formed with Ag(l), with a tetrahedral coordination of the metal. The [Cu-4{Ph2P(Se)NP(Se)Ph-2}(3)](+) clusters assemble as dimers, held together by weak Se...Se distances interactions. Another dimer was observed for the [Ag(dpspf)](+) cation, with two short Ag...Se distances. DFT and MP2 calculations indicated the presence of attracting interactions, reflected in positive Mayer indices (MI). The electrochemistry study of this species showed that both oxidation and reduction took place at silver. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Towards NIR emission: 2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)pyridine as versatile ligand for the synthesis of two new families of cationic and neutral Ir(III) complexes.

In the last decades, cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes have drawn a large interest for their unique properties: they are excellent triplet state emitters, thus the emission is phosphorescent in nature; typically high quantum yields and good stability make them good candidates for luminescent materials. Moreover, through an opportune choice of the ligands, it is possible to tune the emission along the whole visible spectra. Thanks to these interesting features, Ir(III) complexes have found different applications in several areas of applied science, from OLEDs to bioimaging. In particular, regarding the second application, a remarkable red-shift in the emission is required, in order to minimize the problem of the tissue penetration and the possible damages for the organisms. With the aim of synthesizing a new family of NIR emitting Ir(III) complexes, we envisaged the possibility to use for the first time 2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)pyridine as bidentate ligand able to provide the required red-shift of the emission of the final complexes. Exploiting the versatility of the ligand, I prepared two different families of heteroleptic Ir(III) complexes. In detail, in the first case the 2-(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)pyridine was used as bis-chelating N^N ligand, leading to cationic complexes, while in the second case it was used as cyclometalating C^N ligand, giving neutral complexes. The structures of the prepared molecules have been characterised by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Moreover, the neutral complexes’ emissive properties have been measured: emission spectra have been recorded in solution at both room temperature and 77K, as well as in PMMA matrix. DFT calculation has then been performed and the obtained results have been compared to experimental ones.

New Metal Tetrazolate Complexes: Design, Synthesis, Characterization and Applications

This final thesis is aimed at summarizing the research program I have carried out during my PhD studies, that has been dealing with the design, the preparation, characterization and applications of new Re(I), Ru(II), and Ir(III) metal complexes containing anionic ligands such as 5-aryl tetrazolates [R-CN4]- or their neutral analogues, N-alkyltetrazoles [R-CN4-R1]. Chapter 1 consists of a brief introduction on tetrazoles and metal-tetrazolato complexes, and on the photophysical properties of d6 transition metal complexes. In chapter 2, the synthesis, characterization and study of the photophysical properties of new luminescent Ir(III)-tetrazolate complexes are discussed. Moreover, the application of one of the new Ir(III)-CN complexes as emissive core in the fabrication of an OLED device is reported. In chapter 3, the study of the antimicrobial activity of new Ru(II)-alkyltetrazole complexes is reported. When the pentatomic ring was substituted with a long alkyl residue, antimicrobial activity toward Deinococcus radiodurans was observed. In chapter 4, a new family of luminescent Re(I)-tetrazolate complexes is reported. In this study, different N-alkyl tetrazoles play the role of diimine (diim) ligands in the preparation of new Re(I) tricarbonyl complexes. In addition, absorption and emission titration experiments were performed to study their interaction with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA). In chapter 5, the synthesis and characterization of new luminescent Re(I)-tetrazolate complexes are discussed. The use of sulfonated diimine ligands in the preparation of new Re(I) tricarbonyl complexes led to the first example Re(I) complexes for the luminescent staining of proteins. In chapter 6, the synthesis, a new family of Ir(III)-NO2 tetrazole complexes displaying unexpected photophysical properties are discussed. Moreover, the possibility to tune the luminescent output of such systems upon chemical modification of the pending nitro group was verified by performing reduction tests with sodium dithionite; this represents encouraging evidence for their possible application as hypoxia-responsive luminescent probes in bioimaging.

Oxidative DNA damage induced by S(IV) in the presence of Cu(II) and Cu(I) complexes

The DNA damage induced by S(IV) in the presence of some Cu(II) complexes in air saturated solution was investigated. The addition of S(IV) to an air saturated solution containing CuII GGA (GGA = glycylglycyl-L-alanine), CuII G3 (G3 = triglycine) or CuII G4 (G4 = tetraglycine) and Ni(II) traces, causes rapid formation of the respective Cu(III) complex, with simultaneous O2 uptake and S(IV) oxidation. SO3•- and HO• were detected by EPR-spin trapping experiments. The DNA strand breaks were attributed to the oxysulfur radicals formed. In the reduction of Cu(II)/BCA (BCA = 4,4' dicarboxy-2-2'-biquinoline) by S(IV), with CuI BCA complex formation, there is the possible formation of carbon centered radical of BCA or peroxyl radical (ROO•) capable of oxidizing DNA bases. The intensity of DNA damage in the presence of these Cu(II) complexes and S(IV) (10-300 µmol L-1) followed the order: CuII BCA ∼ CuII G4 ∼ Cu(II) (added as Cu(NO3)2) > CuII G3 ∼ CuII GGA. Specifically for CuII BCA the damage occurred even at lower S(IV) concentration (0.1 µmol L-1). For the Cu(II) complexes with glycylglycylhistidine, glycylhistidylglycine, glycylhistidyllysine and glycylglycyltyrosylarginine the Cu(III) formation and the DNA damage was not observed.

Reactivity of bulky tris(Phenylpyrazolyl) methanesulfonate copper(I) complexes towards small unsaturated molecules

Reaction of the tris(3-phenylpyrazolyl)methane sulfonate species (Tpms(Ph))Li with the copper(I) complex [Cu(MeCN)(4)][PF6] affords [Cu(Tpms(Ph))(MeCN)] 1. The latter, upon reaction with equimolar amounts of cyclohexyl-(CyNC) or 2,6-dimethylphenyl (XylNC) isocyanides, or excess CO, furnishes the corresponding Cu(I)complexes [Cu(Tpms(Ph))(CNR)] (R = Cy 2, Xyl 3) or [Cu(Tpms(Ph))(CO)] 4. The ligated isocyanide in 2 or 3 (or the acetonitrile ligand in 1)is displaced by 3-iminoisoindolin-1-one to afford 5, the first copper(I) complex containing an 3-iminoisoindolin-1-one ligand. The ligated acetonitrile in 1 undergoes nucleophilic attack by methylamine to give the amidine complex [Cu(Tpms(Ph)){MeC(NH)NHMe}] 6, whereas only the starting materials were recovered from the attempted corresponding reactions of 2 and 3 with methylamine. Complexes 1 or 6 form the trinuclear hydroxo-copper(II)species [(mu-Cu){Cu(mu-OH) (2)(Tpms(Ph))}(2)] 7 upon air oxidation in moist methanol. In all the complexes the scorpionate ligand facially caps the metal in the N,N,O-coordination mode.

In vivo targeting of an anti-tumor antibody coupled to antigenic MHC class I complexes induces specific growth inhibition and regression of established syngeneic tumor grafts.

The concept of antibody-mediated targeting of antigenic MHC/peptide complexes on tumor cells in order to sensitize them to T-lymphocyte cytotoxicity represents an attractive new immunotherapy strategy. In vitro experiments have shown that an antibody chemically conjugated or fused to monomeric MHC/peptide can be oligomerized on the surface of tumor cells, rendering them susceptible to efficient lysis by MHC-peptide restricted specific T-cell clones. However, this strategy has not yet been tested entirely in vivo in immunocompetent animals. To this aim, we took advantage of OT-1 mice which have a transgenic T-cell receptor specific for the ovalbumin (ova) immunodominant peptide (257-264) expressed in the context of the MHC class I H-2K(b). We prepared and characterized conjugates between the Fab' fragment from a high-affinity monoclonal antibody to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and the H-2K(b) /ova peptide complex. First, we showed in OT-1 mice that the grafting and growth of a syngeneic colon carcinoma line transfected with CEA could be specifically inhibited by systemic injections of the conjugate. Next, using CEA transgenic C57BL/6 mice adoptively transferred with OT-1 spleen cells and immunized with ovalbumin, we demonstrated that systemic injections of the anti-CEA-H-2K(b) /ova conjugate could induce specific growth inhibition and regression of well-established, palpable subcutaneous grafts from the syngeneic CEA-transfected colon carcinoma line. These results, obtained in a well-characterized syngeneic carcinoma model, demonstrate that the antibody-MHC/peptide strategy can function in vivo. Further preclinical experimental studies, using an anti-viral T-cell response, will be performed before this new form of immunotherapy can be considered for clinical use.

Molecular modeling of peptide-MHC class I complexes : applications to peptide based immunotherapy

Summary The specific CD8+ T cell immune response against tumors relies on the recognition by the T cell receptor (TCR) on cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) of antigenic peptides bound to the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule. Such tumor associated antigenic peptides are the focus of tumor immunotherapy with peptide vaccines. The strategy for obtaining an improved immune response often involves the design of modified tumor associated antigenic peptides. Such modifications aim at creating higher affinity and/or degradation resistant peptides and require precise structures of the peptide-MHC class I complex. In addition, the modified peptide must be cross-recognized by CTLs specific for the parental peptide, i.e. preserve the structure of the epitope. Detailed structural information on the modified peptide in complex with MHC is necessary for such predictions. In this thesis, the main focus is the development of theoretical in silico methods for prediction of both structure and cross-reactivity of peptide-MHC class I complexes. Applications of these methods in the context of immunotherapy are also presented. First, a theoretical method for structure prediction of peptide-MHC class I complexes is developed and validated. The approach is based on a molecular dynamics protocol to sample the conformational space of the peptide in its MHC environment. The sampled conformers are evaluated using conformational free energy calculations. The method, which is evaluated for its ability to reproduce 41 X-ray crystallographic structures of different peptide-MHC class I complexes, shows an overall prediction success of 83%. Importantly, in the clinically highly relevant subset of peptide-HLAA*0201 complexes, the prediction success is 100%. Based on these structure predictions, a theoretical approach for prediction of cross-reactivity is developed and validated. This method involves the generation of quantitative structure-activity relationships using three-dimensional molecular descriptors and a genetic neural network. The generated relationships are highly predictive as proved by high cross-validated correlation coefficients (0.78-0.79). Together, the here developed theoretical methods open the door for efficient rational design of improved peptides to be used in immunotherapy. Résumé La réponse immunitaire spécifique contre des tumeurs dépend de la reconnaissance par les récepteurs des cellules T CD8+ de peptides antigéniques présentés par les complexes majeurs d'histocompatibilité (CMH) de classe I. Ces peptides sont utilisés comme cible dans l'immunothérapie par vaccins peptidiques. Afin d'augmenter la réponse immunitaire, les peptides sont modifiés de façon à améliorer l'affinité et/ou la résistance à la dégradation. Ceci nécessite de connaître la structure tridimensionnelle des complexes peptide-CMH. De plus, les peptides modifiés doivent être reconnus par des cellules T spécifiques du peptide natif. La structure de l'épitope doit donc être préservée et des structures détaillées des complexes peptide-CMH sont nécessaires. Dans cette thèse, le thème central est le développement des méthodes computationnelles de prédiction des structures des complexes peptide-CMH classe I et de la reconnaissance croisée. Des applications de ces méthodes de prédiction à l'immunothérapie sont également présentées. Premièrement, une méthode théorique de prédiction des structures des complexes peptide-CMH classe I est développée et validée. Cette méthode est basée sur un échantillonnage de l'espace conformationnel du peptide dans le contexte du récepteur CMH classe I par dynamique moléculaire. Les conformations sont évaluées par leurs énergies libres conformationnelles. La méthode est validée par sa capacité à reproduire 41 structures des complexes peptide-CMH classe I obtenues par cristallographie aux rayons X. Le succès prédictif général est de 83%. Pour le sous-groupe HLA-A*0201 de complexes de grande importance pour l'immunothérapie, ce succès est de 100%. Deuxièmement, à partir de ces structures prédites in silico, une méthode théorique de prédiction de la reconnaissance croisée est développée et validée. Celle-ci consiste à générer des relations structure-activité quantitatives en utilisant des descripteurs moléculaires tridimensionnels et un réseau de neurones couplé à un algorithme génétique. Les relations générées montrent une capacité de prédiction remarquable avec des valeurs de coefficients de corrélation de validation croisée élevées (0.78-0.79). Les méthodes théoriques développées dans le cadre de cette thèse ouvrent la voie du design de vaccins peptidiques améliorés.

Are the light-harvesting I complexes from Rhodospirillum rubrum arranged around the reaction centre in a square geometry?

The basic photosynthetic unit containing the reaction centre and the light-harvesting I complex (RC-LHI) of the purple non-sulphur bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum was purified and reconstituted into two-dimensional (2D) membrane crystals. Transmission electron microscopy using conventional techniques and cryoelectron microscopy of the purified single particles and of 2D crystals yielded a projection of the RC-LHI complex at a resolution of at least 1.6 nm. In this projection the LHI ring appears to have a square symmetry and packs in a square crystal lattice. The square geometry of the LHI ring was observed also in images of single isolated particles of the RC-LHI complex. However, although the LHI units are packed identically within the crystal lattice, a new rotational analysis developed here showed that the reaction centres take up one of four possible orientations within the ring. This fourfold disorder supports our interpretation of a square ring symmetry and suggests that a hitherto undetected component may be present within the photosynthetic unit.
