In this work we report the synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic behavior of 2p-3d-4f heterospin systems containing the nitroxide radical 4-azido-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (N3tempo). These compounds were synthesized through a one-pot reaction by using [Cu(hfac)2], [Ln(hfac)3] (hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate, Ln = Dy(III), Tb(III) or Gd(III)), and the N3tempo radical. Depending on the stoichiometric ratio used, the synthesis leads to penta- or trimetallic compounds, with molecular formulas [Cu3Ln2(hfac)8(OH)4(N3tempo)] (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy) and [CuLn2(hfac)8(N3tempo)2(H2O)2] (Ln = Gd, Dy). The magnetic properties of all compounds were investigated by direct current (dc) and alternating current (ac) measurements. The ac magnetic susceptibility measurements of Tb(III)- and Dy(III)-containing compounds of both families revealed slow relaxation of the magnetization, with magnetic quantum tunneling in zero field.
In this work, a new series of arysulfonylhydrazine-1H-1,2,3-triazole derivatives were synthesized, and their ability to inhibit the in vitro replication of HSV-1 was evaluated. Among the 1,2,3-triazole derivatives, 1-[(5″-methyl-1″-(4‴-fluorophenylamino)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4″-yl)carbonyl]-2-(4'-methylphenylsulfonyl)hydrazine and 1-[(5'-methyl-1'-(2″,5″-dichlorophenylamino)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4'-yl)carbonyl]-2-(phenylsulfonyl)hydrazine, with IC(50) values of 1.30 and 1.26 μM, respectively, displayed potent activity against HSV-1. Because these compounds have low cytotoxicity, their selectivity indices are high. Under the assay conditions, they have better performance than does the reference compound acyclovir. The structures of all of the compounds were confirmed by one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques ((1)H, (13)C-APT, COSY-(1)H×(1)H and HETCOR (1)J(CH)) and by elemental analysis.

Graphical AbstractSystematic analysis reveals the influence of the aryl substituents upon the formation of supramolecular synthons based on N-H···N and N-H···O hydrogen bonding.
AbstractCrystallography on mono-p-substituted derivatives of 1-(arylamino)-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbohydrazides, 1 (X = H), 2 (F), 3 (Cl) and 4 (Br), and a 2,5-dichloro (5) analogue, shows the molecular structures to be similar. Distinct hydrogen bonding patterns based on N-H···N and N-H···O are observed in their crystal structures with 1, having two independent molecules comprising the asymmetric unit, displaying one pattern, 2 and 5 another, and 3 and 4 yet another.Geometry optimisation calculations indicate any conformational differences in the solid-state do not persist in the gas-phase, and that no influence of the substituents is seen in the geometric parameters. A Natural Population Analysis, for both experimental and optimised structures, shows the charge on the triazole-N3 atom is at a maximum for 1, as opposed to 2-5, an observation correlated with its distinctive packing based around a supramolecular synthon not seen in the other structures. For the molecules having electronegative substituents, Molecular Electrostatic Potentials show the energies of the amine-H4n atoms are reduced for 2 and 5, compared to 3 and 4. A further distinction in 2-5 is indicated by the Hirshfeld surface analysis which highlights the importance of π···π interactions in 2 and 5, i.e. with the more electronegative substituents. Clearly, there is interplay between various factors but all correlated with the influence of the electronegativity of the substituent(s).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
