Abstract: | The manganese complexes MnII(Hbmimpm)2(NO3)](NO3) · Et2O (1), MnIII(bmimpm)2(OAc)] · 2CH2Cl2(2), and MnIII(bmiapm)2(OAc)] · MeOH · H2O · CH2Cl2(3) containing the new ligands Bis(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)-(4-methoxyphen-1-yl)methanol (Hbmimpm) and Bis(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)](2-aminophenyl)methanol (Hbmiapm) were synthesized. They are good structural models for the reduced (1) and oxidized (2, 3) form of manganese superoxide dismutase. All complexes were characterized by spectroscopic methods and X-ray structure analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c whereas complex 3 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n. The coordination sphere around the manganese cores is distorted octahedral with two corresponding tridentate ligands representing the protein ligands and one nitrate (1) or acetate (2, 3) ion occupying two cis positions. Similar to the enzyme the Mn(III) complex 2 reacts with sodium azide. The obtained microcrystalline azide adduct was characterized by UV-Vis and IR spectroscopy. |
