do Prado CA, Pessoa MHO, dos Santos LDS, da Cruz ADS, Dinelli LR, Bogado AL. The Self-Assembly of Cationic Metal Complexes on Gold Nanoparticle Surface. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:28989-28999. [PMID: 38973858 PMCID: PMC11223192 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c04098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024]
Abstract
This work aims to study the interaction between cationic metal complexes (M z +) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs z- ). The M z + complexes were chosen from previous works described in the literature and were synthesized as defined. For example, they are as follows: 1 = [RuCl(dppb)(bipy)(py)](PF6); 2 = [RuCl(dppb)(bipy)(vpy)](PF6); 3 = [RuCl(dppb)(bipy)(mepy)](PF6); 4 = [RuCl(dppb)(bipy)(tbpy)](PF6); 5 = [RuCl2(dppb)(bipy)](PF6); 6 = [Fe(bipy)3]Cl2; 7 = [Ru(bipy)3](PF6)2; 8 = [TPyP{RuCl(dppb)(bipy)}4](PF6)4; and 9 = [RuCl(p-cymene)(Diipmp)](PF6). The interactions between M z + and AuNPs z- were carried out using conductometry and UV-vis spectroscopy. These experiments allowed determination of kinetic parameters, revealing three different steps in the interaction process: induction time, flocculation, and agglomeration. The self-assembly between M z + and AuNPs z- was investigated using three different models of binding site, namely, Langmuir or direct plot, Benesi-Hildebrand, and Scatchard. These models provide the fraction of total binding sites occupied (θ), the formation constant (K f), which is dependent on the temperature and geometric structure of each group of M z +, and the Gibbs free energy of reaction (ΔG r ), which was negative for each pair of M z + and AuNPs z- , revealing a spontaneous agglomeration process. The Hill coefficient (n) was 1 for almost all complexes, indicating that agglomeration is an independent process, except for 5, where n = 2, suggesting a positive propensity to bind onto the AuNPs z- surface. The models have confirmed a noncovalent interaction between these species. The relative error in site binding does not show any variation with changes in the temperature, but a fine-tuning of the n value to 1.00 was observed with the increase of the temperature. Finally, the reduction reaction of the 4-nitrophenolate anion (4-NP-) by NaBH4 catalyzed by AuNPs z- was used in the presence of M z + as an evaluation test to show how the M z + species will disturb the 4-NP- binding site on the surface of gold nanoparticles.

Abstract
In this study, Ru complexes [(η6-p-cymene)RuX(2-{(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)N=CH}-C5H3N-6-(O))] (3: X=Cl; 4: X=I) were prepared with N-bound 2-pyridonato ligand by thermal base-free MeX elimination from ionic N,N-chelated Ru complexes [(η6-p-cymene)RuX(κ2-L1)](X) (1: X=Cl; 2: X=I; L1={2-[(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)N=CH]-6-(OMe)C5H3N}). The Ru complex 3 was used as O-donor for Lewis (LA) or Brönsted acids. The reactions of 3 with SnCl2, Ph3SnCl, ZnCl2 or HCl provided [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(SnCl3)(2-{(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)N=CH}-C5H3N-6-(O→SnCl2)] (6), [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl(2-{(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)N=CH}-C5H3N-6-(O→SnPh3Cl)] (7), and [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl(2-{(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)N=CH}-C5H3N-6-(O→)]2(μ-ZnCl2) (8) and [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl(2-{(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)N=CH}-C5H3N-6-(OH)}](Cl) (9). The easy conversion of the 2-pyridonato ligand in 3 to its 2-hydroxypyridine in 9 evoked testing of 3 and 4 as potential catalysts in base-free transfer-hydrogenation of ketones.

Abstract
Misfolding and protein aggregation have been linked to numerous human neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's, prions, and Parkinson's. Due to their interesting photophysical properties, ruthenium (Ru) complexes have received considerable attention in studying protein aggregation. In this study, we synthesized the novel Ru complexes ([Ru(p-cymene)Cl(L-1)][PF6](Ru-1), and [Ru(p-cymene)Cl(L-2)][PF6](Ru-2)) and investigated their inhibitory activity against the bovine serum albumin (BSA) aggregation and the Aβ1-42 peptides amyloid formation. Several spectroscopic methods were used to characterize the complexes, and the molecular structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. Amyloid aggregation and inhibition activity were examined using the Thioflavin-T (ThT) assay, and secondary structures were analyzed by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The cell viability assay was carried out on the neuroblastoma cell line, revealing that the Ru-2 complex showed better protective effects against Aβ1-42 peptide toxicity on neuro-2a cells than the Ru-1 complex. Molecular docking studies elucidate binding sites and interactions between the Ru-complexes and the Aβ1-42 fibrils. The experimental studies revealed that these complexes significantly inhibited BSA aggregation and Aβ1-42 amyloid fibril formation at 1:3 and 1:1 equimolar concentrations, respectively. Antioxidant assays demonstrated that these complexes act as antioxidants, protecting from amyloid-induced oxidative stress. Molecular docking studies with the monomeric Aβ1-42 (PDB: 1IYT) show hydrophobic interaction, and both complexes bind preferably in the central region of the peptide and coordinate with two binding sites of the peptide. Hence, we suggest that the Ru-based complexes could be applied as a potential agent in metallopharmaceutical research against Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Morpholine motif is an important pharmacophore and, depending on the molecular design, may localize in cellular acidic vesicles. To understand the importance of the presence of pendant morpholine in a metal complex, six bidentate N,O-donor ligands with or without a pendant morpholine unit and their corresponding ruthenium(II) p-cymene complexes (1-6) are synthesized, purified, and structurally characterized by various analytical methods including X-ray diffraction. Complexes 2-4 crystallized in the P21/c space group, whereas 5 and 6 crystallized in the P1̅ space group. The solution stability studies using 1H NMR support instantaneous hydrolysis of the native complexes to form monoaquated species in a solution of 3:7 (v/v) dimethyl sulfoxide-d6 and 20 mM phosphate buffer (pH* 7.4, containing 4 mM NaCl). The monoaquated complexes are stable for at least up to 24 h. The complexes display excellent in vitro antiproliferative activity (IC50 ca. 1-14 μM) in various cancer cell lines, viz., MDA-MB-231, MiaPaCa2, and Hep-G2. The presence of the pendant morpholine does not improve the dose efficacy, but rather, with 2-[[(2,6-dimethylphenyl)imino]methyl]phenol (HL1) and its pendant morpholine analogue (HL3) giving complexes 1 and 3, respectively, the antiproliferative activity was poorer with 3. MDA-MB-231 cells treated with the complexes show that the acidic vesicles remain acidic, but the population of acidic vesicles increases or decreases with time of exposure, as observed from the dispersed red puncta, depending on the complex used. The presence of the 2,6-disubstituted aniline and the naphthyl group seems to improve the antiproliferative dose. The complex treated MDA-MB-231 cells show that cathepsin D, which is otherwise present in the cytosolic lysosomes, translocates to the nucleus as a result of exposure to the complexes. Irrespective of the presence of a morpholine motif, the complexes do not activate caspase-3 to induce apoptosis and seem to favor the necrotic pathway of cell killing.

Abstract
Flow processes and enzyme immobilization have gained much attention over the past few years in the field of biocatalytic process design. Downstream processes and enzyme stability can be immensely simplified and improved. In this work, we report the utilization of polymer network-entrapped enzymes and their applicability in flow processes. We focused on the superabsorber-based immobilization of an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from Lactobacillus brevis and its application for a reduction of acetophenone. The applicability of this immobilization technique for a biotransformation running in a packed bed reactor was then demonstrated. Towards this end, the immobilized system was intensively studied, first in a batch mode, leading to >90% conversion within 24 h under optimized conditions. A subsequent transfer of this method into a flow process was conducted, resulting in very high initial conversions of up to 67% in such a continuously running process.
