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.
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.
