Ligand scrambling reactions of cyano(thione)gold(I) complexes and determination of their equilibrium constants

01 Oct 2002-Canadian Journal of Chemistry (NRC Research Press Ottawa, Canada)-Vol. 80, Iss: 10, pp 1279-1284
TL;DR: In this article, a series of thiones in DMSO using 13 C and 15 N NMR spectroscopy were investigated and the equilibrium constants (Keq) were determined for scrambling of all the complexes by integrating the CN resonances in the 13 C NMR recorded at 298 K.
Abstract: Ligand scrambling reactions in cyano(thione)gold(I) complexes ((>C=S-Au-CN)) to form (Au(>C=S)2) + and (Au(CN)2) - species have been investigated for a series of thiones in DMSO using 13 C and 15 N NMR spectroscopy. Rapid approach to equilibrium occurred and resulted in distinct signals for the (>C=S-Au-CN) and (Au(CN)2) - com- plexes, both in 13 C and 15 N NMR. Equilibrium constants (Keq) were determined for scrambling of all the complexes by integrating the CN resonances in the 13 C NMR recorded at 298 K. The influence of various factors (initial concentra- tion, ionic strength, temperature, and solvent polarity) on the Keq value was examined for a representative complex (ImtAuCN (Imt = Imidazolidine-2-thione)).

TL;DR: The interaction of gold(III) with peptides and proteins and its immunochemical implications are discussed, including recent potential breakthroughs.
Abstract: Gold drugs are still amongst the most efficacious for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Their mechanism of action, as well as the molecular basis of their side-effects, remain poorly understood. Current theories are reviewed, including recent potential breakthroughs. The interaction of gold(III) with peptides and proteins and its immunochemical implications are discussed.

TL;DR: The ligand-scrambling reaction of R 3 PAuCN (to form (R 3 P) 2 Au + and Au(CN) 2 −) has been studied for R=Ph, Me, Et, i-Pr, and Cy (Cy=cyclo-C 6 H 11 ).
Abstract: The ligand-scrambling reaction of R 3 PAuCN (to form (R 3 P) 2 Au + and Au(CN) 2 −) has been studied for R=Ph, Me, Et, i-Pr, and Cy (Cy=cyclo-C 6 H 11 ). The reactions are conveniently studied by 31 P and 13 C NMR spectroscopy. The phenyl complex undergoes rapid ligand exchange and must be cooled to approximately 240 K to observe sharp resonances for the individual equilibrium components. All of the aliphatic complexes are in the slow exchange limit allowing observation by NMR spectroscopy at room temperature
