Abstract

:
The reaction of [(OC)5MnBr] with substituted 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazoles) 2-PyPzRH (1a-l) in methanol or diethyl ether yields the yellow to orange manganese(I) complexes [(OC)3Mn(Br)(2-PyPzRH)] (2a-l), the substituents R being phenyl (a), 1-naphthyl (b), 2-anthracenyl (c), 1-pyrenyl (d), 4-bromophenyl (e), 3-bromophenyl (f), duryl (g), 2-pyridyl (h), 2-furanyl (i), 2-thienyl (j), ferrocenyl (k), and 1-adamantyl (l). The carbonyl ligands are arranged facially, leading to three chemically different CO ligands due to different trans-positioned Lewis donors. The diversity of the substituent R demonstrates that this photoCORM backbone can easily be varied with a negligible influence on the central (OC)3MnBr fragment, because the structural parameters and the spectroscopic data of this unit are very similar for all these derivatives. Even the ferrocenyl complex 2k shows a redox potential for the ferrocenyl subunit which is identical to the value of the free 5-ferrocenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole (1k). The ease of variation of the starting 5-substituted 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazoles) offers a modular system to attach diverse substituents at the periphery of the photoCORM complex.

Graphical Abstract

1. Introduction

Carbon monoxide releasing molecules (CORMs) are compounds that liberate the signaling molecule CO for medicinal and biological administration. Metal carbonyls are usually considered for this purpose because numerous carbonyl ligands can be transported to a predetermined disease site and liberated via diverse triggers. Thus, CORMs are distinguished by the liberation initiators such as enzymes (ET-CORMs), illumination (photoCORMs), pH change, or substitution reactions (for recent reviews see [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]). Especially photoCORMs represent a prominent group because a clean delivery of CO seems to be possible without the necessity to add another chemical trigger [8,13,14,15]. Due to the fact that exaggerated light-sensitivity hampers handling and administration of carbon monoxide whereas short wave wavelengths are harmful for cells, a balance has to be considered. Limitation of toxic side effects of CORMs can be expected if essential metals such as late 3d metals are used. The prevalent essential 3d metal is iron [18,19,20,21], however, the redox chemistry of iron is quite challenging, known as Fenton chemistry [21]. The most convenient element is manganese and no toxicity is related to this transition metal in concentrations, relevant for medicinal administration of carbon monoxide [22]. Thus, many manganese-based CORMs have been studied and a very low toxicity has been observed. In addition, diverse ligands can be used to guarantee solubility in aqueous media and influence CO release triggers. The carbonyl ligands must be in a facial arrangement in order to ensure stability in aqueous solutions. If four CO ligands are bound at octahedrally coordinated Mn centers, one of the trans-positioned carbonyl ligands is easily substituted by Lewis bases such as ethers or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) [23].
Solubility of CORMs in aqueous media often is advantageous for administration of CO. However, immobilized CORMs increasingly gain attention and diverse concepts exist to administer carbon monoxide from such insoluble CORMs [24,25]. As a representative example, insoluble CORMs can be embedded in matrices [3] such as non-wovens [26,27] and CO is released upon illumination whereas the degradation products remain in the polymer matrices and, hence, the hazard potential of metal-containing degradation products plays an insignificant role. For soluble CORMs, low toxicity is required for the CORMs as well as for their degradation end-products after CO release. In all these manganese(I)-based CORMs, the metal centers show a low spin state in an octahedral environment with a d6 configuration. During CO liberation, most commonly an oxidation to manganese(II) has been observed. In buffered aqueous solutions, manganese(II) hydrogenphosphate MnHPO4 of low toxicity has been identified after CO release from dinuclear [{(OC)3Mn}2(µ-SC2H4NH3)3]Br2 (CORM-EDE1 [28]).
In the past many ligand systems have been tested to tune diverse properties of manganese(I)-based CORMs such as e.g., solubility in water, nature of trigger, color, non-toxicity, stability under aerobic conditions, and CO release kinetics. Schatzschneider and coworkers [29,30] already demonstrated at complexes with a cationic [(OC)3Mn(Pz3C-R)] unit (Pz = pyrazolyl) that alterations at the periphery and immobilization at SiO2 surfaces or peptides have negligible influence on the photochemical CO release properties. In this study, we present a flexible modular system that allows to attach diverse functional groups at the periphery of 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole ligands which are known to act as strong bidentate Lewis bases [31] whereas the central manganese carbonyl unit remains nearly unaffected. Based on our extensive experience with 5-substituted 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazoles (2-PyPzRH, 1; see Scheme 1 [32,33]), we screened manganese(I)-based photoCORMs with these bidentate ligands at a 14-electron (OC)3MnBr moiety to demonstrate the variability of this substance class.

2. Results

2.1. Synthesis of [(OC)3Mn(Br)(2-PyPzRH)] (2)

Easily available [(OC)5MnBr] readily reacts with the substituted 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazoles 1 in methanol or diethyl ether yielding the corresponding yellow to orange manganese(I) complexes 2 as shown in Scheme 2. In all these complexes, the carbonyl ligands are arranged facially, leading to three chemically different CO ligands due to different trans-positioned Lewis donors. In Table 1, the 5-positioned group R is defined and selected spectroscopic parameters are summarized.
The influence of the substituent R on the spectroscopic parameters of the carbonyl ligands is very small. The chemical shifts δ(13C CO{1H}) lie in the very narrow range between 220 and 229 ppm, even though that two CO ligands are trans-positioned to strong sp2-hybridized nitrogen donors whereas the third carbonyl is trans-arranged to a rather weakly donating bromide. Commonly, the resonances of the carbonyl ligands are broadened or in some cases even unobservable. The IR stretching vibrations ν(CO) of the carbonyls show characteristic bands around 2025, 1935 and 1900 cm−1, however, the number of observed bands varies due to overlap. These findings support that the substituent R at the pyrazole ring has a negligible influence on the properties of the manganese(I) carbonyl fragment allowing large variations in order to incorporate functional groups for diverse applications. Even complexes with a second strong Lewis base such as another 2-pyridyl group (complex 2h) or the bulky redox-active ferrocenyl substituent (complex 2k) exhibit very similar spectroscopic data.
The crystal structures also verify that the central (OC)3MnBr remained nearly unaffected by the substitution pattern of the pyrazole ring. Selected structural parameters of the manganese(I) carbonyls are listed in Table 2. Representative molecular structures are depicted in Figure 1 and Figure 2 for the complexes 2f and 2k, respectively. The molecular representations and numbering schemes of the other manganese(I)-based photoCORMs are depicted in the Supporting Information. The N-bond hydrogen atom at the pyrazole ring is able to form hydrogen bridges to methanol or THF which are maintained also in the solid state. Two representative examples are the derivatives 2f and 2k that are depicted in Figure 1 and Figure 2, other methanol adducts can be found in the Supporting Information.
The Mn1–Br1 bond lengths vary in a very narrow region between 252.43(5) (2a) and 255.66(4) pm (2j). The Mn1–NPy distances to the pyridyl bases are significantly larger than the Mn1–NPz values to the pyrazole donors. Due to the trans influence the shorter Mn1–NPz bond leads in most cases to elongated Mn1–CtransPz bonds to the trans arranged carbonyls, however, this effect lies within the uncertainty of the distances. Slightly shorter Mn1–CtransBr bond lengths are also found for the carbonyls in trans position to the bromine atom. A shorter Mn1–C bond is indicative for a stronger back donation from the metal to the π*(CO) orbital of the carbonyl ligand weakening the corresponding CO bond. For the phenyl-substituted derivative 2a a larger Mn1–CtransBr of 186.5(3) pm is found whereas all other complexes show significantly shorter Mn1–C bonds around 181 pm in a very narrow range. In agreement with the IR vibrations of the carbonyls, which are very similar for all complexes, this finding is an artefact due to a slight disorder of Br1 and the trans arranged carbonyl ligand; however, it was impossible to resolve this two-site disordering. As a consequence of this disordering, the ellipsoid of C16 is oriented along the Mn1–C16–O2 unit (see Supporting Information).

2.2. Degradation of [(OC)3Mn(Br)(2-PyPzRH)] (R = Ph, Naph) in Methanol

The degradation of the photoCORMs 2a and 2b were studied to shed light on the final decomposition end-products after release of all carbonyl ligands (see next Chap. 2.3). As observed in earlier studies [28,34,35,36], the CO liberation is accompanied by oxidation processes and the formation of paramagnetic manganese(II) complexes. The formation of open shell systems impeded an NMR spectroscopic monitoring of the degradation reaction. Therefore, we limited the characterization of the end products on mass spectrometry, X-ray crystal determination, and IR studies. The latter verified that all carbon monoxide molecules were released. The degradation was investigated in methanol and we were able to obtain single crystals for X-ray diffraction experiments. As representative examples we studied the degradation of the two complexes [(OC)3Mn(Br)(2-PyPzRH)] [R = Ph (2a), Naph (2b)] in methanol at daylight, yielding tetranuclear manganese(II) (R = Ph, 3a) and mixed manganese(II)/manganese(III) (R = Naph, 3b) compounds according to Scheme 3 and Scheme 4, respectively.
The molecular structure and numbering scheme of [Mn4(Br)2(OMe)2(2-PyPzPh)4] (3a) is shown in Figure 3. Symmetry-related atoms are marked with the letter A. All manganese atoms in this centrosymmetric complex show an oxidation state of +II. The methoxide anions occupy µ3-bridging positions between three Mn centers. The Mn2 atom is in a distorted tetrahedral environment, whereas Mn1 shows a distorted octahedral coordination sphere. The pyrazolate anions bind to two manganese(II) ions.
The molecular structure and numbering scheme of the mixed-valent centrosymmetric complex [(MeOH)4Mn4(Br)2(OMe)6(2-PyPzNaph)2] (3b) is depicted in Figure 4; again symmetry related atoms are marked with the letter A. Two methoxide ligands occupy µ3- and four methoxide ions µ2-bridging positions. All manganese atoms are embedded in distorted octahedral environments.
As observed earlier, degradation of manganese(I)-based photoCORMs upon illumination is accompanied by redox processes [28,34,35,36], yielding carbonyl-free manganese(II) and manganese(III) complexes or even manganese oxide species. Due to degradation in methanol in an inert atmosphere, methoxides and pyrazolates are observed. In [Mn4(Br)2(µ3-OMe)2(2-PyPzPh)4] (3a) all manganese atoms have an oxidation state of +II, however, Mn1 is in a distorted octahedral and Mn2 in a distorted tetrahedral environment. An average Mn–O bond length of 219.4 pm is observed with a slightly smaller value for Mn2–N3 of 213.4(4) pm. The higher oxidation state of +II leads to a slight shortening of the Mn2–Br1 bond (246.9(1) pm) compared to derivatives 2 (average MnI–Br 254.3 pm) due to an enhanced electrostatic attraction and a smaller coordination number.
The degradation product [(MeOH)4Mn4(Br)2(µ3-OMe)2(µ-OMe)4(2-PyPzNaph)2] (3b) is a mixed valent complex with MnII and MnIII atoms in distorted octahedral environments. The µ-bridging methoxide anions bridge MnII and MnIII atoms, leading to significantly different distances of 189.2(3) pm for Mn1–O1 and 217.2(3) pm for Mn2A–O1. A similar situation is observed for O2 (Mn1–O2 190.0(3), Mn2–O2 213.5(3) pm). These bonding parameters clearly allow to assign Mn1 to the oxidation state of +III and Mn2 to +II. In agreement with this interpretation, the soft bromide ion binds to the softer Mn2 atom with a Mn2–Br1 distance of 262.16(7) pm; this value is larger than the Mn–Br distance of complex 3a due to the enhanced coordination number. In addition to the anionic ligands also four ligated methanol molecules saturate the coordination spheres of the MnII atoms Mn2 and Mn2A, two of them form hydrogen bridges to the pyrazolate ions.

2.3. CO Release from [(OC)3Mn(Br)(2-PyPzPh)] (2)

It has been shown earlier that manganese(I) complexes containing the 14-electron (OC)3MnBr moiety represent valuable photoCORMs. In order to also demonstrate the suitability of these complexes, as a representative example the CO release of 2a was investigated at the solid phase. The amount of liberated CO was detected and quantified with a portable CO sensor (Dräger Pac7000, Drägerwerk AG &Co. KGaA, Lübeck, Germany) during illumination with LED lamps in a closed desiccator, as described elsewhere [26]. The measurements were performed with two different wavelengths (365 and 480 nm) and liberated CO was quantified as number of released CO molecules per CORM. Illumination of 2a at 365 nm for 30 min led to liberation of 0.086 CO molecules per manganese(I) carbonyl complex, referring to t30min = 0.086 CO/photoCORM (see Figure 5). When the experiments were accomplished at 480 nm, 0.089 CO molecules per CORM were released, giving a value of t30min = 0.089 CO/photoCORM. The small number of released carbon monoxide molecules is caused by the fact that only carbonyl complexes at the surface are degraded by this procedure. After stirring of the remaining solid, further CO can be released. In methanol solution the CO release is much faster and quantitative (see Figure S4 in the Supporting Information).

2.4. Electrochemical Studies of [(OC)3Mn(Br)(2-PyPzFc)] (2k)

Electrochemical data were obtained by cyclic voltammetry using a conventional single-compartment three-electrode cell arrangement in combination with a potentiostat “AUTOLAB, eco chemie”. As electrodes, the following were used: auxiliary electrode (0.196 cm2 Pt disk electrode), working electrode (glassy carbon), and Ag/AgCl reference electrode (Ag/AgCl (LiCl sat.)). The Ag/AgCl electrode comprised a AgCl coated Ag wire in the same electrolyte solution, separated from the solution by a frit, and was prevent leakage of Ag+ ions into the solution. The measurements were carried out in anhydrous and nitrogen purged acetonitrile with 0.1 M terabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (recrystallized twofold) as supporting electrolyte and analyt concentration of 3 × 10−4 mol/L. All potentials are referenced by the ferrocenium/ferrocene couple (E(Fc/Fc+) = 0.48 V). All experiments were performed at room temperature.
The cyclic voltammogram of 1k (Figure 6, top) shows a half-wave potential of E1/2(Fc/Fc+) 0.08 V versus Fc/Fc+, whereas a slight shift is observed in the carbonylmanganese(I) complex 2k with E1/2(Fc/Fc+) 0.11 V versus Fc/Fc+. Furthermore, the voltammogram of 2k exhibits two irreversible, consecutive anodic waves at Epa 0.63 and 0.78 V versus Fc/Fc+. These irreversible oxidation processes result from the oxidation of manganese(I) to manganese(II) and of bromide to bromine, respectively. This observation agrees well with the electrochemical characterization of the ferrocenyl-free photoCORM-EDE1, [(OC)3Mn(µ-SCH2CH2NH3)3Mn(CO)3]Br2; however, due to the dinuclear nature of the latter compound, two consecutive Mn+/Mn2+ potentials have been found.

3. Discussion

The pyridylpyrazoyles with substituents in 5-position bind as a bidentate ligand to the 14-electron (OC)3MnBr units. Regardless of this substitution the 13C{1H} NMR shifts of the carbonyl ligands vary in a very narrow range. Furthermore, the IR stretching frequencies of the carbonyl groups are very similar. This finding offers the possibility to vary the periphery of the manganese(I) complex to tune properties with negligible influence on the central (OC)3MnBr moiety. Alkyl and aryl groups with different bulkiness are accepted as well as functionalized aryl groups.
Degradation of these manganese(I)-based photoCORMs leads to oxidation of the manganese center to di- or trivalent metal atoms. These oxidized manganese species are unable to bind carbon monoxide and hence, carbonyl-free and tetranuclear cage compounds are observed. This finding agrees well with the electrochemical studies at the ferrocenyl-substituted complex 2k. The oxidation of the ferrocenyl substructure is reversible whereas the oxidation of the manganese(I) center is an irreversible process. Both redox steps occur independently of each other, verifying that the substituent in 5-position shows only negligible influence on the central manganese(I) carbonyl fragment.

4. Materials and Methods

4.1. General Remarks

All manipulations were carried out in an inert nitrogen atmosphere using standard Schlenk techniques. The solvents were dried according to standard procedures over KOH and subsequently distilled over sodium/benzophenone in a nitrogen atmosphere prior to use. Deuterated solvents were dried over sodium, degassed, and saturated with nitrogen. The yields given are not optimized. 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker AC 400 and AC 600 spectrometers (Bruker AXS GmbH, Karlsruhe, Germany). Chemical shifts are reported in parts per million relative to SiMe4 as external standard. The residual signals of the deuterated solvents were used as internal standards for 1H and 13C{1H} NMR experiments. Commercially available chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Sigma-Aldrich Chemie GmbH, Munich, Germany) or Alfa Aesar (Thermo Fisher GmbH, Karlsruhe, Germany).

4.2. General Procedures

Only the general procedures are given, more detailed descriptions are presented in the Supporting Information.
Method A (2a to 2g): The appropriate pyridylpyrazole 1 was suspended in methanol. In another flask, a stoichiometric or a slight excess of Mn(CO)5Br was dissolved in methanol and transferred at once to the suspension of 1. Then the reaction mixture was refluxed for several hours whereby a solid precipitated. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature. The precipitate was collected, washed with a few mL of methanol and dried in vacuo. The yields varied between 60% and a nearly quantitative conversion.
Method B (2h to 2l): The suspension of Mn(CO)5Br and the appropriate pyridylpyrazole 1 in diethyl ether was refluxed for several hours until gas evolution ceased. During this time, a solid precipitated. Then the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature. The precipitate was collected, washed with a few mL of cold diethyl ether and dried in vacuo.

4.3. X-Ray Structure Determinations

The intensity data for the compounds were collected on a Nonius KappaCCD diffractometer using graphite-monochromated Mo-Kα radiation. Data were corrected for Lorentz and polarization effects; absorption was taken into account on a semi-empirical basis using multiple-scans [37,38,39]. The structures were solved by Direct Methods (SHELXS [40]) and refined by full-matrix least squares techniques against Fo2 (SHELXL-97 [40]). The hydrogen atoms were included at calculated positions with fixed thermal parameters for 1e, 2b (with exception of the amine hydrogen atom bonded to N3), for the disordered thiophene carbon atom C10 and the methyl groups of the methanol molecules of 2j, 3a and 3b (with exception of the OH-groups of the methanol molecules). All other hydrogen atoms were located by difference Fourier synthesis and refined isotropically. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically [40]. The crystal of 2g contained large voids, filled with disordered solvent molecules. The size of the voids were 81 Å3/unit cell. Their contribution to the structure factors was secured by back-Fourier transformation using the SQUEEZE routine of the program PLATON [41] resulting in 17 electrons/unit cell. Crystallographic data as well as structure solution and refinement details are summarized in Table S1. XP [42] and POV-Ray [43] were used for representations of molecular structures.

5. Conclusions

In this research project, we demonstrated that pyridylpyrazoles with a substituent in 5-position represent valuable photoCORMs. The influence of the 5-substitution on the 14-electron (OC)3MnBr fragment is negligible allowing to modify this group according to future requirements (such as e.g., tracing of these photoCORMs via vibrational or fluorescence spectroscopy as well as tuning of the solubility in physiological solutions).
