Journal ArticleDOI
Inter-ligand reactions: in situ formation of new polydentate ligands
Robert A. Coxall,Steven G. Harris,David K. Henderson,Simon Parsons,Peter A. Tasker,Richard E. P. Winpenny +5 more
TL;DR: Two triazine ligands have been synthesized by derivatisation of cyanuric chloride: 6-(diethylamino)-2,4-disulfide group present on one ring and a co-ordinated thiolate on the second.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organometallic Ruthenium(II) Diamine Anticancer Complexes: Arene-Nucleobase Stacking and Stereospecific Hydrogen-Bonding in Guanine Adducts
TL;DR: The structures of monofunctional adducts of the "piano-stool" complexes of the type [(eta(6)-arene)Ru(II)(en)Cl][PF(6)] are determined and the predominance of the syn orientation both in the solid state and in solution can be attributed to hydrophobic interactions between the arene and purine rings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleotide Cross‐Linking Induced by Photoreactions of Platinum(IV)–Azide Complexes
Philippe Müller,Björn Schröder,John Parkinson,Nicole A. Kratochwil,Robert A. Coxall,Andrew Parkin,Simon Parsons,Peter J. Sadler +7 more
TL;DR: Visible light irradiation of inert [PtIV(diam(m)ine)( diazide)(diazide)] complexes leads to reductive elimination of the azide ligands, production of N2, and formation of bifunctional adducts with guanine bases of the type which are lethal to cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
The first structural characterisation of a Group 2 metal alkylperoxide complex: Comments on the cleavage of dioxygen by magnesium alkyl complexes
Philip J. Bailey,Robert A. Coxall,Caroline M. Dick,Sylvie Fabre,Louise C. Henderson,Christian Herber,Stephen T. Liddle,Daniel Loroño-González,Andrew Parkin,Simon Parsons +9 more
TL;DR: The formation of a 1:2 mixture of the benzylperoxo and benzyloxo species indicates that the rate of the insertion is faster than that of the metathesis, and this is shown to be consistent with a radical mechanism for the insertion process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymetallic Cobalt and Manganese Cages with Phosphinate and Phosphonate Ligands
Euan K. Brechin,Robert A. Coxall,Andrew Parkin,Simon Parsons,Peter A. Tasker,Richard E. P. Winpenny +5 more
TL;DR: Addition of a coligand in reactions of phosphonates with salts of late 3d metals can lead to more soluble and tractable materials, such as the {Co13 } cage shown.
