| Research Abstract |
New series of macrocyclic polyamine ligands have been synthesized, which were designed to activate O_2 or deactivate active oxygen species. Among these, a macrocyclic tetraamine and a triamine with an imidazole-pendant are of interest, which mimic a heme-like O_2 uptake function and a superoxide dismutase function, respectively.
Our original nickel(II) complex of a macrocyclic dioxopentaamine has been shown to form a 1:1 O_2 adduct and thereby activate O_2 in aqueous solution at room temperature. We have long met an extreme difficulty in studying these novel reaction mechanisms due to instability of the Ni(II) complex and its O_2 adduct. However, we have now succeeded in isolation of a stable complex precursor that brings a bright breakthrough for the mechanistic study.
Bleomycin is an antibiotic that kills cancer cells via an O_2 activation mechanism. It has been long disputed whether copper(I) can be the central metal ion. To settle this debate, we have synthesized two model compounds. Through this model study, we could demonstrate that there are two isomeric Cu(I) complexes formed by the bleomycin-like ligands, of which only one species can activate O_2 as much as the Fe(II)complex. The solution of such a question with our present can activate O_2 as much as the Fe(II)complex. The solution of such a question with our present study will lead to development of new O_2 activating agents, catalysis and medicines.
