The present invention relates to innovative bispidone ligands, to processes for preparing them, and to their use as ligands in metal complexes and in the selective separation of metals, to metal complexes comprising these ligands, to processes for preparing them, and to the use of such metal complexes in organic synthesis, in bleaching technology, and in the radiopharmaceutical sector.
Multidentate ligands form a group of compounds which is of great interest, since the possibilities for their use in areas both of industry and of medicine are diverse. By way of example, such ligands are employed for the selective separation of metal ions or in metal complexes for the catalytic oxidation of unsaturated compounds or for bleaching. Stable and biocompatible metal complexes also find application as contrast media or in the diagnosis and therapy of cancer diseases.
Many of these multidentate ligands and their metal complexes, however, have disadvantages in respect in particular of stability, reactivity, selectivity, and complexity of synthesis. Furthermore, the chemical possibilities for forming derivatives are inadequate for many of these ligands, meaning that the field of application, as a result of the consequent low flexibility, is relatively small.
It is an object of the present invention, therefore, to provide new bispidone ligands which can be used advantageously as ligands in metal complexes, and processes for preparing such ligands, and also metal complexes comprising these ligands.
This object is achieved by the embodiments of the present invention that are defined in the claims.
More particularly, a bispidone ligand of formula (1) is provided:
in which the radical RA is selected from a group of one of the formulae (2a) to (2d):
in which
E is selected from N or P,
x is an integer from 0 to 5,
the radical R1 is selected from hydrogen, straight-chain or branched-chain (C1-12) alkyl radicals, (C3-8) cycloalkyl radicals, (C5-12) aryl or heteroaryl radicals, (C6-12) alkaryl or alkheteroaryl radicals, or a group of the formula (2a) to (2d) defined as above, with E and x being defined as above,
both radicals R2 are selected each independently of one another from hydrogen, straight-chain or branched-chain (C1-12) alkyl radicals, (C3-8) cycloalkyl radicals, (C6-12) aryl or (C5-12) heteroaryl radicals,
both radicals R3 are selected each independently of one another from hydrogen, straight-chain or branched-chain (C1-12) alkyl radicals, (C3-8) cycloalkyl radicals, (C6-12) aryl or (C5-12) heteroaryl radicals or carboxylic acid groups or derivatives derived therefrom, selected from esters, amides, and peptides,
the radical R4 is selected from hydrogen, straight-chain or branched-chain (C1-12) alkyl radicals, (C3-8) cycloalkyl radicals, (C6-12) aryl or (C5-12) heteroaryl radicals, and optionally both radicals R5 and R6 are selected each independently of one another from hydrogen, straight-chain or branched-chain (C1-12) alkyl radicals, (C3-8) cycloalkyl radicals, (C6-12) aryl or (C5-12) heteroaryl radicals.
The term “aryl radical” as used herein is not subject to any particular restriction and includes all chemical radicals which have an aromatic parent structure, such as a phenyl group, for example. In accordance with the present invention, the term “aryl radical” includes not only unsubstituted but also substituted aromatic groups.
The term “heteroaryl radical” as used herein is not subject to any particular restriction and includes all aromatic groups whose parent structure comprises one or more heteroatoms, such as a pyridyl radical, for example. Such groups may be, among others, derivatives of 5-membered rings, such as pyrroles, furans, thiophenes or imidazoles, or derivatives of 6-membered rings, such as pyrazines, pyridines or pyrimidines.
The term “alkaryl radical” as used in the present invention includes all those compounds which are substituted by at least one alkyl group, such as benzyl groups or ethylphenyl groups, for example. The “alkaryl radical” may be either unsubstituted or substituted on one or more alkyl groups and/or on the aromatic parent structure.
The term “alkheteroaryl radical” as used herein is not subject to any particular restriction and includes all compounds which comprise an aromatic parent structure having at least one heteroatom and at least one alkyl group. Alkheteroaryl radicals are exemplified, for example, by picolinyl radicals.
The term “carboxylic acid group or derivatives derived therefrom, selected from esters, amides, and peptides” as used herein stands for a corresponding —CO2H, —CO2−, —CONH2, —CONHRx group, in which, in turn, Rx then stands for a corresponding amide or peptide radical.
In the formulae 2a, 2c, and 2d, as in the formulae 4a, 4c, and 4d, x is an integral value of 0 to 5. If x, for example, in the formula (2a)
adopts the value 0, this means that there may be either a σ bond, and hence a cyclic compound of the formula (2a′)
or the open-chain analog, i.e., an open-chain compound of the formula (2a″)
The same applies to the formula (2c). In the case of x=0 in formula (2c), the corresponding heptacycle compound or the corresponding open-chain analog may be present. In the case of formula (2d), for x=0 the compound present is the compound below of formula (2d″)
whereas if x=1 the compound present is the cyclic compound below:

In a 250 ml three-neck flask, the 1,4,6-trimethyl-6-amino-1,4-diazacycloheptane in solution in 10 ml of DME is admixed at 0° C. with glacial acetic acid and formalin. Subsequently, 1,3-diphenylpropan-3-one in solution in 10 ml of DME is admixed dropwise. The mixture is heated at 90° C. with stirring for 6 hours. After the mixture has cooled to room temperature, the solvent and water formed are removed under reduced pressure. The orange oil is then taken up in diethyl ether and admixed with concentrated perchloric acid. White crystals precipitate, which are isolated by filtration and purified with a hot 1:1 water/ethanol mixture. Drying of the crystals under a high vacuum results in the simple perchlorate salt of piperidone. The free piperidone is obtained by adding 20% KOH solution and carrying out extraction with diethyl ether. Subsequent removal of the solvent under reduced pressure gives the desired product.

In a 100 ml three-neck flask, copper tetrafluoroborate is introduced in 5 ml of acetonitrile. The bispidone is also dissolved in 5 ml of acetonitrile and added to the dissolved copper tetrafluoroborate. The solution, which is now dark blue, is heated at 82° C. for 5 minutes. After it has cooled to room temperature, crystallization is initiated by ether diffusion. Purification is carried out by recrystallization from acetonitrile.

N-Tosyliminophenyliodinane (1 eq, 0.4 mmol, 150 mg), the copper catalyst (5 mol %, 0.02 mmol), and column-treated, degassed styrene (22 eq, 8.7 mmol, 1 ml) were stirred in dry, degassed acetonitrile under nitrogen at 25° C. until the reaction mixture became clear (max. 7 h). The solution was filtered through a short, neutral alumina column, and the column was rinsed with ethyl acetate (20 ml). The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, the residue and the standard anthrone (0.5 eq, 0.2 mmol, 38.8 mg) were dissolved in CDCl3 (0.6 ml), and the yield of 2-phenyl-1-tosylaziridine was determined by means of 1H-NMR. The following signals were taken into consideration: anthrone: 4.31 ppm (s, 2H, CH2), aziridine: 2.97 ppm (d, 1H, 3JHH=7.2 Hz, CH in the three-membered ring trans to Ph).
Yield: 360 mg (0.63 mmol, 36.7%)
An integral ratio of the signals taken into account of 1:1 corresponds to a yield of 100% of aziridination product (0.4 mmol). The TON (turnover number) is calculated from this as follows:
With an amount of catalyst of 5 mol % relative to PhINTs, this formula gives a maximum TON of 20.
