Since its discovery as a small signaling molecule in the human body, researchers have tried to utilize the beneficial cytoprotective properties of carbon monoxide in therapeutic applications. Initial work focused on the controlled direct application of CO gas. However, to circumvent the disadvantages of this method such as requirement for special equipment, hospitalization of the patient and the risk of overdosing, metal-carbonyl complexes were developed as CO-releasing molecules (CORMs) which are able to deliver CO in a tissue-specific manner. However, upon the release of CO from the metal coordination sphere, complex fragments termed inactivated CORMs (iCORMs) with free coordination sites remain which can undergo nonspecific follow-up reactions under physiological conditions.
Thus, the first aim of the present thesis was the coordination of tetradentate ligands such as tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (tpa), bis(2-pyridylmethyl)(2-quinolylmethyl)amine (bpqa), bis(2-quinolylmethyl)(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (bqpa) and tris(2-quinolylmethyl) amine (tmqa) in a tridentate facial manner to a fac-Mn(CO)3 moiety previously established as a photoactivatable CO-releasing molecule (PhotoCORM). The desired coordination of the pedant donor group upon photolytic CO release at 365 nm was demonstrated by UV/Vis-, IR- und 1H NMR experiments and verified by DFT calculations. All complexes of the series showed long-term dark stability in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), but released between two and three equivalents of carbon monoxide with half-lives of around 5-10 minutes upon illumination at 365 nm. Although the photolytic properties of the complexes were quite similar besides the differences in type of hetereoaromatic ligands, the determination of the logP values showed an increase of lipophilicity with the number of quinoline groups, which might enable tissue-specific uptake. A significant cellular manganese uptake as well as the binding of CO released upon photolysis to the cytochrome c oxidases in E. coli cells was demonstrated for [Mn(CO)3(tpa)]+. Furthermore, this complex exhibited photoinduced bactericidal activity when the cells were grown in succinate-containing medium and thus unable to change their metabolism to mixed acid fermentation.
In the second part of the project, the hexadentate ligand 1,4,7-tris(2-pyridylmethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (py3tacn) was coordinated to a facial Mn(CO)3 moiety. The resulting [Mn(CO)3(py3tacn-3N)]+ complex has one pedant donor group per labile carbonyl ligand and thus is a significant improvement over the 1st generation tpa-complexes. The metal-coligand inactivated CORM (iCORM) fragment expected to be generated upon complete photolytic CO release, [Mn(py3tacn-6N)]2+, was synthesized independently and will serve as a well-defined negative control in upcoming biological tests. The corresponding CORM has long-term dark stability in pure dimethylsulfoxide or phosphate-buffered myoglobin solution, with three equivalents of CO released with a half-life of 22 minutes upon illumination at 412 nm. The photolysis was also followed by IR spectroscopy and the intermediates, in line with a stepwise release of carbon monoxide, and occupation of vacated sites by the pedant pyridine group were verified by DFT calculations.
Due to possible tissue damage by energy-rich light and the inverse correlation of tissue penetration depth and illumination wavelength, the absorption maxima of PhotoCORMs should ideally be in the phototherapeutic window between 600 and 1200 nm. Thus, in the third part of this work, a series of heterobinuclear Mn(CO)3/Ru(bpy)2 PhotoCORMs was prepared to shift the absorption of these compounds into the red region of the UV/Vis spectrum. For the synthesis of such Mn(I)/Ru(II) complexes, the bridging ligands 2,3-di(2-pyridyl)quinoxaline (dpx) and 3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazine[5,6-f]-1,10-phenanthroline (pytp) were prepared and the two binding pockets subsequently filled with a Ru(bpy)2 and a fac-Mn(CO)3 moiety. The resulting two heterobinuclear metal complexes [Ru(bpy)2(dpx)MnBr(CO)3]2+ and [Ru(bpy)2(pytp)MnBr(CO)3]2+ as well as [Ru(etx)(tbx)MnBr(CO)3]2+ with etx = ethyl(2,2':6',2''-terpyridine)-4'-carboxylate and tbx = N-((2,2’:6’,2’’-terpyridin)-4’-yl)2,2’-bipyridine-5-carboxamide which was prepared by a metal precursor provided by the group of Prof. Dr. Katja Heinze showed a significant shift of the main absorption bands to higher wavelengths as well as two times higher extinction coefficients than the analogous mononuclear Mn(I) compounds. However, both the Mn(I)/Ru(II) and Mn(I) complexes had a reduced stability in phosphate-buffered myoglobin solution even in the absence of light. The efficiency of the CO-release from [Ru(etx)(tbx)MnBr(CO)3]2+ and [Ru(bpy)2(dpx)MnBr(CO)3]2+ could be controlled by proper choice of the excitation wavelength. A change from 468 to 525 nm or even 660 nm led to a decrease of the number of CO equivalents released from two to one and an elongation of the half-lives.
Finally, since nitric oxide also serves as a small messenger molecule in the human body with its signaling pathways interacting with those of CO, a mixed-ligand CO/NO metal complex was sought. [Mo(CO)2(NO)(iPr3tacn)]+ with iPr3tacn = 1,4,7-triisopropyl-1,4,7-triazacyclonane was selected from the literature and its molecular structure determined by single crystal diffraction, demonstrating the presence of an NO+ ligand in the coordination sphere as indicated by a MO-N-O angle close to 180°. Photolysis of [Mo(CO)2(NO)(iPr3tacn)]+ required high-energy UV light, which prevented a quantification of the CO release due to photolytic decomposition of the myoglobin. However, solution IR experiments showed that the complex lost the two carbon monoxide ligands upon illumination at 254 nm while the NO remained tightly bound to the metal. The structures observed of the intermediates were also verified by DFT calculations.
In conclusion, in this project, four different classes of novel transition metal-based photoactivatable CO-releasing molecules (PhotoCORMs) were prepared and studied. The first group incorporated one additional free donor group per LMn(CO)3 moiety but varied in the number of coordinated pyridyl and quinolinyl groups which allows the control of the lipophilicity of these compounds. As an extension of this concept, the second series incorporated one free donor group per labile carbonyl ligand which gives rise to well-defined photolysis products that can be independently prepared and assayed. The third class was based on a Ru(II) photosensitizer unit connected to a MnBr(CO)3 PhotoCORM moiety. This shifts the absorption maximum from 500 nm to about 585 nm in [Ru(bpy)2(dpx)MnBr(CO)3]2+. Finally, a first mixed-ligand CO/NO carrier molecule was evaluated for its photolytic behavior. However, while the carbonyl ligands were photolabile at low excitation wavelengths, release of the NO ligand was not observed under the conditions studied.
In a next step, detailed studies on the bioactivity of the different classes of PhotoCORMs need to be carried out with partner groups from biochemistry to fully explore their biomedical potential.
The present thesis deals with the fabrication, optimization of growth process and characterization of silicon based materials with molecular beam epitaxy. Two material systems are investigated in the course of this work: silicon/silicon suboxide multilayer structures and mono manganese silicide thin films. Mono manganese silicide (MnSi) is grown on Si(111) substrates with an hydrogen passivated surface, that is prepared by wet chemical processes. The growth start is performed by deposition of an amorphous Mn wetting layer that is subsequently annealed to form a MnSi seed layer on which the MnSi molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is achieved. An amorphous or a crystalline Si cap layer is deposited onto the MnSi film to finalize the growth process and protect the sample from oxidation. With Raman spectroscopy it is shown that the crystalline cap layer is in fact single crystalline silicon. Results of x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy confirm the growth of mono manganese silicide in contrast to other existing manganese silicide phases. In addition, in-plane and out-of-plane residual strain, and twinning of the MnSi thin film is detected with x-ray diffraction of symmetric and asymmetric reflections. Orientation between the Si substrate and the MnSi film is determined with the parallel lattice planes MnSi(210) and Si(511). Transport measurements show a T^2 dependence of the resistivity below 30K and metallic behavior above, a magneto resistance of 0.9% and an unusual memory like effect of the resistance for an in-plane magnetic field sweep measurement. Silicon/Silicon suboxide (SiOx) multilayer structures are grown on Si(100) by interrupting the Si growth and oxidizing the surface with molecular oxygen. During oxidation the RHEED pattern changes from the Si(2x1) reconstruction to an amorphous pattern. When silicon growth is resumed a spotty RHEED pattern emerges, indicating a rough, three dimensional surface. The rough surface can be smoothed out with Si growth at substrate temperatures between 600°C and 700°C. Measurements with transmission electron microscopy show that a silicon suboxide layer of about 1nm embedded in single crystalline silicon is formed with the procedure. Multilayer structures are achieved by repeating the oxidation procedure when the Si spacer layer has a smooth and flat surface. The oxygen content of the suboxide layers can be varied between 7.6% and 26.8%, as determined with secondary ion mass spectrometry and custom-built simulations models for the x-ray diffraction. Structural stability of the multilayer structures is investigated by x-ray diffraction before and after rapid thermal annealing. For temperatures up to 1000°C the multilayer structures show no modification of the SiOx layer in x-ray diffraction.
The study of magnetic phases in spintronic materials is crucial to both our fundamental understanding of magnetic interactions and for finding new effects for future applications.
In this thesis, we study the basic electrical and magnetic transport properties of both epitaxially-grown MnSi thin films, a helimagnetic metal only starting to be developed within our group, and parabolic-doped ultra-thin (Ga,Mn)As layers for future studies and applications.
Spin-flip Raman Untersuchungen an semimagnetischen II-VI Halbleiter-Quantentrögen und Volumenproben
(2009)
Im Zentrum dieser Arbeit standen ramanspektroskopische Untersuchungen der elektronischen spin-flip-Übergänge an semimagnetischen (Zn,Mn)Se Proben. Hierbei wurden sowohl Quantentrogstrukturen untersucht als auch volumenartige Proben. Ziel der Forschung war dabei, ein tieferes Verständnis der Wechselwirkungen der magnetischen Ionen mit den Leitungsbandelektronen der Materialien zu gewinnen. Im Hinblick auf mögliche zukünftige spin-basierte Bauelemente lag das Hauptaugenmerk auf dem Einfluss von n-Dotierung bis zu sehr hohen Konzentration. Hierfür standen verschiedene Probenreihen mit unterschiedlichen Dotierungskonzentrationen zur Verfügung.
Im Rahmen dieser Doktorarbeit sind neue Borylenkomplexe synthetisiert worden, die am Boratom keinen pi-Donor tragen und eine umfangreiche Chemie ermöglichen. Zum Beispiel wurde eine [2+2]-Cycloaddition und eine Metathesereaktion eines Borylenkomplexes beobachtet. Ebenfalls wurde ein stabiles Bornucleophil erhalten.
Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war es zum einen, das Potential von chiralen Eisenporphyrin- und Mangansalen-Katalysatoren zur kinetischen Racematspaltung sekundärer Allylalkohole durch asymmetrische Epoxidierung auszuloten. Zum anderen sollten Untersuchungen zum Mechanismus der Jacobsen-Katsuki-Epoxidierung durchgeführt werden; ein besonderes Augenmerk lag dabei auf der Fragestellung, welche Faktoren dazu führen, dass bei der Umsetzung von cis-Olefinen ein Gemisch aus cis- und trans-Epoxiden erhalten wird. Eine Auswahl arylsubstituierter Allylalkohole IIa-f wurde mit den Katalysatoren Ia und Ib,c und 0.8 bzw. 0.6 Äquivalenten an Iodosobenzol als Sauerstoffdonor umgesetzt (Gl. I), wobei es zu einer kinetischen Racematspaltung kommt. Die Oxidation verläuft für beide Katalysatorsysteme sowohl chemoselektiv (vorwiegend Epoxidierung) als auch diastereoselektiv (dr bis zu > 95:5). Als Hauptprodukte werden für die offenkettigen Allylalkohole IIa,e,f die threo-konfigurierten Epoxyalkohole III erhalten, während die cyclischen Allylakohole IIb-d die entsprechenden cis-Epoxyalkohole III lieferen. 1,1-Dimethyl-1,2-dihydro-2-naphthol (IIc) ist hierbei eine Ausnahme, da die CH-Oxidation dieses Substrats eine beachtliche Nebenreaktion darstellt. Der Hauptunterschied zwischen den Fe- und Mn-Katalysatoren liegt in der Enantioselektivität: Während mit dem Fe(porph*)-Komplex Ia nur Selektivitäten von maximal 43 Prozent ee (krel = 2.7) erzielt werden, erwiesen sich die Mn(salen*)-Komplexe Ib,c als geeignete Katalysatoren, mit denen ee-Werte von bis zu 80 Prozent (krel = 12.9) erreicht werden. Die in der kinetischen Racematspaltung erzielten Selektivitäten können durch ein synergistisches Zusammenwirken von hydroxy-dirigierendem Effekt einerseits und sterischen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Substrat und Eisen-Komplex oder, im Falle des Mangan-Komplexes, Angriff des Olefins entlang der so genannten Katsuki-Trajektorie andererseits erklärt werden. Fazit: Die chiralen Mn(salen*)-Komplexe Ib,c sind wirkungsvolle Katalysatoren für die asymmetrische Epoxidierung racemischer sekundärer Allylalkohole II. In exzellenten Chemo- und Diastereoselektivitäten entstehen die entsprechenden Epoxyalkohole III mit ee-Werten bis zu 80 Prozent. Die zurückbleibenden Allylalkohole werden dabei bis zu 53 Prozent ee angereichert. Im Vergleich dazu weist der Eisenkomplex Ia eine ungleich geringere Enantioselektivität auf. Mechanistische Untersuchungen mit Vinylcyclopropan Va ergeben, dass die Jacobsen-Katsuki-Epoxidierung nicht über ein kationisches, sondern über ein radikalisches Intermediat abläuft. Dies wird anhand von Produktstudien durch reversed phase-HPLC-Analytik belegt. In weitergehenden Untersuchungen mit cis-Stilben (Vb) und cis--Methylstyrol (Vc) als Sonden zur cis/trans-Isomerisierung wurde festgestellt, dass die Diastereoselektivität der Epoxidierung nicht nur vom Gegenion des Mangankatalysators Ib, sondern auch von der eingesetzten Sauerstoffquelle [OxD] abhängt. Daher musste der Katalysezyklus (Schema A) um eine diastereoselektivitäts-bestimmende Gabelung erweitert werden: Das primär entstehende MnIII(OxD)-Addukt kann entweder unter Abspaltung der Fluchtgruppe zum etablierten MnV(oxo)-Komplex reagieren (Weg 1) oder direkt das Olefin epoxidieren (Weg 2). Während die Sauerstoffübertragung durch die Oxo-Spezies stufenweise über ein Radikalintermediat verläuft und damit zu einer Mischung aus cis- und trans-Epoxid führt, erfolgt der Lewisäure-aktivierte Sauerstofftransfer konzertiert. Der Gegenion-Effekt auf die cis/trans-Isomerisierung erklärt sich dahingehend, dass die Natur des Anions (koordinierend oder nicht-koordinierend) die Lebensdauer des Radikalintermediats und/oder die Lage und Selektivität der Energiehyperflächen der verschiedenen Spinzustände des MnV(oxo)-Oxidans beeinflusst. Fazit: In der Jacobsen-Katsuki-Epoxidierung existiert neben dem etablierten MnV(oxo)-Oxidans zumindest noch ein weiteres; dabei handelt es sich um das MnIII(OxD)-Addukt, dessen Sauerstoff Lewissäure-aktiviert übertragen wird. Ein unterschiedlicher Anteil der beiden Reaktionskanäle erklärt die Unterschiede im Ausmaß der cis/trans-Isomerisierung. Auch das Gegenion des Mangan-Komplexes Ib beeinflusst die cis/trans-Diastereoselektivität. Mit koordinierenden Gegenionen dominiert Isomerisierung zum trans-Epoxid, während nicht-koordinierende Gegenionen bevorzugt zum cis-Epoxid führen.
