Abstract
This study presents a simple and energy-efficient self-assembly LAG synthetic method for novel water-soluble copper(I) complexes [Cu(terpy)(PTA)][PF6] (1) and [Cu(terpy)(PTA)2][PF6] (2). They were characterized by FT-IR, 1H, and 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single-crystal/powder X-ray diffraction (for 2). The X-ray analysis of compound 2 indicates a bidentate coordination mode of terpyridine to the metal center. Variable-temperature NMR tests indicate dynamic properties for terpyridine in the case of both compounds, as well as for the PTA ligands in the case of 2. Additionally, compounds 1 and 2 exhibit interesting cytotoxic activity, which was tested on normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs), human lung carcinoma (A549), human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and human cervix carcinoma (HeLa) established cell lines. In comparison to the other tested compounds, complexes 1 and 2 seem to have significantly lower IC50 values against cancer cells (A549, HeLa, MCF-7), indicating their potential as prospective anticancer agents. Moreover, both compounds show no significant toxicity towards normal skin cells (NHDFs), suggesting a certain selectivity in their action on cancer cells. Cisplatin as a reference compound also exhibited considerable cytotoxicity against cancer cells but with a low level of selectivity, which could lead to unwanted effects on normal cells. Remarkably, compounds 1 and 2 exhibit up to 30 times the cytotoxic activity of cisplatin, with a six-fold lower toxicity to normal cells. They also interact strongly with human serum albumin, suggesting potential therapeutic applications. Overall, these compounds hold significant promise as potential chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
The response of the geometric and NMR properties of molecular systems to an external electric field has been studied theoretically in a wide field range. It has been shown that this adduct under field approach can be used to model the geometric and spectral changes experienced by molecular systems in polar media if the system in question has one and only one bond, the polarizability of which significantly exceeds the polarizability of other bonds. If this requirement is met, then it becomes possible to model even extreme cases, for example, proton dissociation in hydrogen halides. This requirement is fulfilled for many complexes with one hydrogen bond. For such complexes, this approach can be used to facilitate a detailed analysis of spectral changes associated with geometric changes in the hydrogen bond. For example, in hydrogen-bonded complexes of isocyanide C≡15N-1H⋯X, 1J(15N1H) depends exclusively on the N-H distance, while δ(15N) is also slightly influenced by the nature of X.

Abstract
This review discusses molecular adducts, whose composition allows a symmetric structure. Such adducts are popular model systems, as they are useful for analyzing the effect of structure on the property selected for study since they allow one to reduce the number of parameters. The main objectives of this discussion are to evaluate the influence of the surroundings on the symmetry of these adducts, steric hindrances within the adducts, competition between different noncovalent interactions responsible for stabilizing the adducts, and experimental methods that can be used to study the symmetry at different time scales. This review considers the following central binding units: hydrogen (proton), halogen (anion), metal (cation), water (hydrogen peroxide).

Abstract
![]()
This work demonstrates
that PTA (1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) behaves as an orthogonal
ligand between Ru(II) and Zn(II), since it selectively binds through
the P atom to ruthenium and through one or more of the N atoms to
zinc. This property of PTA was exploited for preparing the two monomeric
porphyrin adducts with axially bound PTA, [Ru(TPP)(PTA-κP)2] (1, TPP = meso-tetraphenylporphyrin) and [Zn(TPP)(PTA-κN)] (3). Next, we prepared a number of heterobimetallic
Ru/Zn porphyrin polymeric networks—and two discrete molecular
systems—mediated by P,N-bridging PTA in which
either both metals reside inside a porphyrin core, or one metal belongs
to a porphyrin, either Ru(TPP) or Zn(TPP), and the other to a complex
or salt of the complementary metal (i.e., cis,cis,trans-[RuCl2(CO)2(PTA-κP)2] (5), trans-[RuCl2(PTA-κP)4] (7), Zn(CH3COO)2, and ZnCl2). The molecular compounds 1, 3, trans-[{RuCl2(PTA-κ2P,N)4}{Zn(TPP)}4] (8), and [{Ru(TPP)(PTA-κP)(PTA-κ2P,N)}{ZnCl2(OH2)}] (11), as well as the polymeric species [{Ru(TPP)(PTA-κ2P,N)2}{Zn(TPP)}]∞ (4), cis,cis,trans-[{RuCl2(CO)2(PTA-κ2P,N)2}{Zn(TPP)}]∞ (6), trans-[{RuCl2(PTA-κ2P,N)4}{Zn(TPP)}2]∞ (9), and [{Ru(TPP)(PTA-κ3P,2N)2}{Zn9(CH3COO)16(CH3OH)2(OH)2}]∞ (10), were structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
Compounds 4, 6, 9, and 10 are the first examples of solid-state porphyrin networks
mediated by PTA. In 4, 6, 8, 9, and 11 the bridging PTA has the κ2P,N binding mode, whereas in the 2D polymeric
layers of 10 it has the triple-bridging mode κ3P,2N. The large number of
compounds with the six-coordinate Zn(TPP) (the three polymeric networks
of 4, 6 and 9, out of five
compounds) strongly suggests that the stereoelectronic features of
PTA are particularly well-suited for this relatively rare type of
coordination. Interestingly, the similar 1D polymeric chains 4 and 6 have different shapes (zigzag in 4 vs “Greek frame” in 6) because
the {trans-Ru(PTA-κ2P,N)2} fragment bridges two Zn(TPP) units with anti geometry in 4 and with syn geometry
in 6. Orthogonal “Greek frame” 1D chains
make the polymeric network of 9. Having firmly established
the binding preferences of PTA toward Ru(II) and Zn(II), we are confident
that in the future a variety of Ru/Zn solid-state networks can be
produced by changing the nature of the partners. In particular, there
are several inert Ru(II) compounds that feature two or more P-bonded
PTA ligands that might be exploited as connectors of well-defined
geometry for the rational design of solid-state networks with Zn–porphyrins
(or other Zn compounds). This work demonstrates,
through the X-ray structural characterization of several polymeric
Ru/Zn networks, that PTA (1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) behaves
as an orthogonal ligand between Ru(II) and Zn(II). In fact, PTA selectively
binds through the P atom to ruthenium and through one or more of the
N atoms to zinc.
