Darstellung und Charakterisierung von Nanopartikeln auf der Basis von [Ti2W10PO40]7- und Chitosan
(2005)
The Keggin type polyoxotungstate [Ti2W10PO40]7- forms stable associates with the biopolymer chitosan in the nanometer size range. The cluster compound crystallizes from aqueous solution as K4H3[Ti2W10PO40] · 15H2O having a tetragonal structure. Both, the cluster compound and the chitosan/[Ti2W10PO40] associates show a high hydrolytic stability at pH 7.4. The associates formed between the cluster anion [Ti2W10PO40]7- with the polyaminosaccharide chitosan have been characterized by photon correlation spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, filtration, centrifugation and zeta potential measurements. The size of the associates formed is in the range of ca. 5×101 to 5×102 nm. These particles have a defined stoichiometry with 56 cluster anions bound per molecule chitosan. The isoelectric point determined by zeta potential measurements was found for a cluster anion to chitosan molar ratio of 5.5, indicating the charge neutralization between protonated chitosan and [Ti2W10PO40]7- anions. Cellular uptake studies with [Ti2W10PO40]7- using tumor cell lines FaDu (human squamous carcinoma) and HT-29 (human adenocarcinoma) showed that the tungsten amount inside the cells is remarkably enhanced in the presence of chitosan.
Hexapotassium dihydrogen monotitanoundecatungstocobaltate(II) tridecahydrate, K6H2[TiW11CoO40]·13H2O, crystallizes from aqueous solution in the cubic space group P 3m. The structure was refined as an inversion twin. The [TiW11CoO40]8- anion has a Keggin structure with one W-atom site occupied by titanium and a central tetrahedral CoO4 group.
The CuII complex of H4TETP (H4TETP = 1,4,8,11-tetraazatetradecane-1,4,8,11-tetrapropionic acid) is five-coordinate with a distorted square-pyramidal structure (τ = 0.45; i.e. the geometry is nearly half-way between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal) and a relatively long Cu–N and a short Cu–O bond; the comparison between powder and solution electronic spectroscopy, the frozen solution EPR spectrum and ligand-field-based calculations (angular overlap model, AOM) indicate that the solution and solid state structures are very similar, i.e. the complex has a relatively low 'in-plane' and a significant axial ligand field with a dx²-y² ground state. The ligand-enforced structure is therefore shown to lead to a partially quenched Jahn–Teller distortion and to a relatively low complex stability, lower than with the corresponding acetate-derived ligand H4TETA. This is confirmed by potentiometric titration and by the biodistribution with 64Cu-labeled ligands which show that the uptake in the liver is significantly increased with the H4TETP-based system.
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are inorganic cluster compounds that have been shown to possess a number of pharmacological properties, including antidiabetic, antibacterial, antiprotozoal, antiviral and anticancer activities. Their molecular mechanism of action is largely unknown. However, several studies indicate that many of their activities may be due to the inhibition of enzymes, in particular, of those enzymes that are accessible from the extracellular space and do not require the penetration of cell membranes. In this review, we describe the recent progress in the preparation and optimization of POMs, and an evaluation of their use as inhibitors of different families of enzymes. The next important steps in this area of research will be to gain a better understanding of the interactions of POMs with enzymes on a structural level through an X-ray crystallographic study of enzyme–POM complexes and the analysis of structure–activity relationships. Furthermore, POMs with increased stability and in vivo half-lives have to be prepared. Surface modification may allow the targeting of POM drugs at their sites of action.
Two new octahedral cluster complexes [Re6S8(3,5-Me2PzH)6]Br2 · 2(3,5-Me2PzH) (1) and [Re6Se8(3,5-Me2PzH)6]Br2 · 2(3,5-Me2PzH) (2), where 3,5-Me2PzH is 3,5-dimethylpyrazole, have been synthesized using reaction of rhenium chalcobromide complexes Cs4[Re6S8Br6] · 2H2O and Cs3[Re6Se8Br6] · H2O, respectively, with molten 3,5-dimethylpyrazole. Both compounds synthesized were characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction and chemical analysis, IR and luminescent spectra.
