Stereochemical aspects of cyclotriphosphazenes: Prochiral and pseudo-asymmetric phosphorus atoms

Phosphorus-Nitrogen Compounds. Part 64. Comparative Reactions of Spiro and Ansa(N/O) Cyclotetraphosphazenes with Bulky (4-Fluorobenzyl) N/N and N/O Donor Type Bidentate Reagents: Structure, Stereogenic Properties and Cytotoxic activity Studies

The reaction of octachlorocyclotetraphosphazene, N4P4Cl8 (1) (OCCP, tetramer) with an equimolar amount of sodium 3-(N-ferrocenylmethylamino)-1-propanoxide (L1) resulted in the formations of ferrocenyl-spiro-(2) and ferrocenyl-2-cis-4-dichloro-ansa-(3) cyclotetraphosphazenes. Both of the starting compounds...

Phosphorus-nitrogen compounds: part 53-synthesis, characterization, cytotoxic and antimicrobial activity, DNA interaction and molecular docking studies of new mono- and dispirocyclotriphosphazenes with pendant arm(s)

Mono-/dispirocyclotriphosphazenes with pendant arm(s) are robust, but they are less investigated inorganic ring systems. In this study, a series of mono (3 and 4)- and dispirocyclotriphosphazenes with 4-chloro-benzyl pendant arm(s) (13-16) was obtained from the Cl exchange reactions of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene with sodium (N-benzyl)aminopropanoxides (1 and 2). When compound (3) reacted with excess pyrrolidine, morpholine, tetra-1,4-dioxa-8-azaspiro[4,5]decane (DASD) and piperidine, the fully substituted monospirocyclotriphosphazenes (7, 9, 10 and 12) occurred. But, the reactions of 4 with excess piperidine and morpholine produced the gem-piperidino (5)- and morpholino (6)-substituted monospirocyclotriphosphazenes, whereas the reactions of 4 with excess pyrrolidine and DASD gave the fully substituted monospirocyclotriphosphazenes (8) and (11). However, it should be indicated that these derivatives were obtained to be used for the investigation of their spectral, stereogenic and biological properties. The structures of 5, 7 and 14 were determined crystallographically. X-ray data of 5 and 14 displayed that both of compounds were chiral in solid state, and their absolute configurations were assigned as R and RR. Additionally, the antimicrobial activities of phosphazenes were investigated. Minimum inhibitory concentrations, minimal bacterial concentrations and minimum fungicidal concentrations of phosphazenes were determined. The interactions of phosphazenes with plasmid DNA were evaluated by agarose gel electrophoresis. The cytotoxic activities of compounds were studied against L929 fibroblast and DLD-1 colon cancer cells. In addition, density functional theory calculations of 5, 7 and 14 were reported, and their molecular docking studies with DNA, E. coli DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV were presented.

Synthesis of Trispirocyclotriphosphazenes with Oxaphosphorine Rings and Their Crystal and Molecular Structures

Novel trispirocyclotriphosphazenes with oxaphosphorine rings (DOP-PZs) were successfully synthesized by an Appel reaction with phosphoramide, which was prepared from ammonia and 10-chloro-9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide derived from 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide, generally abbreviated as DOPO. The resulting DOP-PZs were characterized by ¹H, ¹³C{¹H}, and ³¹P{¹H} nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and time-of-flight mass spectrometry and shown to consist of cis-trans isomers. Moreover, the crystal and molecular structures of the DOP-PZs were determined by X-ray diffraction; cis- and trans-DOP-PZs (C₃₆H₂₄N₃O₃P₃, M = 639.49 g/mol) were refined to final R₁ values of 0.0260 and 0.0463, respectively, with the SHELXL refinement package using least-squares minimization. The crystal of cis-DOP-PZ is trigonal in space group R3c and the following cell constants: a = 19.5984(5) Å, c = 13.2754(4) Å, V = 4415.9(3) ų, Z = 6, and Flack parameter = 0.038(8). In contrast, trans-DOP-PZ is monoclinic in space group P2₁/c and the following cell constants: a = 9.98647(18) Å, b = 24.1737(4) Å, c = 12.8472(2) Å, β = 112.649(8)°, V = 2862.26(18) ų, and Z = 4. The molecular structures of these DOP-PZs were compared with those of other trispirocyclotriphosphazenes. In addition, the DOP-PZs showed high thermal stability up to 400 °C, with dielectric constants of 2.76-2.77 and dissipation factors of 0.0017-0.0031 at 10 GHz.
