A series of bimetallic titanium-ruthenium complexes of general formula (η5-C5H5)(μ-η5:κ1-C5H4(CR12)nPR2R3)TiCl2RuCl2 (n = 0, 1, 2 or 4; R1 = H or Me; R2 = H, Ph, or Cy; R3 = Ph or Cy) have been synthesized, including two novel compds. as wel ...
Various methods for the synthesis of bimetallic complexes, in which two different metal fragments which are connected by two or three halogeno bridges, are reported. The reactions are usually fast and give rise to structurally defined products in quantitat ...
Direct reaction between [Cr(CO)6] and arenes with ionic substituents affords the corresponding arene-chromium tricarbonyl complexes, [Cr(CO)3(arene)], in only modest yield. In contrast, these complexes can be prepared in pure form in ...
Two 1,3-dialkyne-functionalized imidazolium chlorides, 1,3-dipropynylimidazolium chloride and 1,3-dipentynylimidazolium chloride, have been prepared from the direct reaction between the appropriate chloroalkyne and (trimethylsilyl)imidazole. Replacement of ...
Insects respond to microbial infection by the rapid and transient expression of several genes encoding potent antimicrobial peptides. Herein we demonstrate that this antimicrobial response of Drosophila is not aspecific but can discriminate between various ...
Multinuclear platinum anticancer complexes are a proven option to overcome resistance of established anticancer compounds. Transferring this concept to ruthenium complexes led to the synthesis of dinuclear Ru(II)-arene compounds containing a bis(pyridinone ...
We recently demonstrated that in vitro peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages by IL-13 or PPARgamma ligands promotes uptake and killing of Candida albicans through mannose receptor overexpres ...
Heterobimetallic complexes where half-sandwich complexes of ruthenium(II), rhodium(III) and iridium(III) are connected by three bromo-bridges to Re(CO)3 have been prepd. from metathesis reactions of [RuBr(m-Br)(h6-arene)]2 (arene = C6H6, C6H3Et3-1,3,5 or p ...
Papillomaviruses are believed to play an important role in the development of genital carcinoma. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) has been proposed as a cofactor. Here we show that HSV-1 interferes with the expression of human papillomavirus (HPV-18) genes in He ...
