Öğe Benzotriazole functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene-silver(I) complexes: Synthesis, cytotoxicity, antimicrobial, DNA binding, and molecular docking studies(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018) Onar, Gulnihan; Karatas, Mert Olgun; Balcioglu, Sevgi; Tok, Tugba Taskin; Gurses, Canbolat; Kilic-Cikla, Isin; Ozdemir, NamikIn this study, six [Ag(NHC)(2)](+)[AgCl2](-) type silver complexes were synthesized by the reaction of corresponding carbene precursor and Ag2O. One [Ag(NHC)(2)]+NO3- type complex was synthesized by the anion exchange reaction of corresponding silver-NHC and NaNO3. The synthesized complexes were characterized by H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR and IR spectroscopic methods, and elemental analysis. X-ray crystal structure of 5a was also reported. Cytotoxicities of all compounds were evaluated against human breast (MCF-7) and colorectal (Caco-2) cancer cell lines and non-cancer mouse fibroblast (L-929) cell lines. All complexes performed stronger activity against both cancer cell lines than standard compound cisplatin while complex 3b performed nearly equal cytotoxicity to cisplatin against non-cancer L-929. Antimicrobial effects of all compounds were evaluated against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Candida albicans and good activities were observed. The docking results indicated that complex 3b might be classified as druggable molecule in drug design. DNA binding study also demonstrates that 3b complex has an interaction ability to DNA. Combination of experimental and molecular docking results revealed that reported complexes are promising structures and deserve further research as anticancer drugs. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.

However, studies about the catalytic activities of bridged bi-metallic complexes are quite rare. Therefore, in this study, anthracene-substituted one mono-metallic and one bridged bi-metallic PEPPSI-type Pd-NHC complexes were synthesized in order to compare their catalytic activities in Suzuki-Miyaura and Mizoroki-Heck reactions. Both complexes were fully characterized by H-1 and C-13 NMR, LC-MS, IR spectra and elemental analyses. The results of catalytic reactions clearly revealed that mono-metallic complex performs better catalytic activity than bi-metallic analogue in the use of same amount of palladium.Öğe Coumarin or benzoxazinone based novel carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: synthesis, molecular docking and anticonvulsant studies(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Karatas, Mert Olgun; Uslu, Harun; Sari, Suat; Alagoz, Mehmet Abdullah; Karakurt, Arzu; Alici, Bulent; Bilen, CigdemAmong many others, coumarin derivatives are known to show human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) inhibitory activity. Since hCA inhibition is one of the underlying mechanisms that account for the activities of some antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), hCA inhibitors are expected to have anti-seizure properties. There are also several studies reporting compounds with an imidazole and/or benzimidazole moiety which exert these pharmacological properties. In this study, we prepared fifteen novel coumarin-bearing imidazolium and benzimidazolium chloride, nine novel benzoxazinone-bearing imidazolium and benzimidazolium chloride derivatives and evaluated their hCA inhibitory activities and along with fourteen previously synthesized derivatives we scanned their anticonvulsant effects. As all compounds inhibited purified hCA isoforms I and II, some of them also proved protective against Maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and ScMet induced seizures in mice. Molecular docking studies with selected coumarin derivatives have revealed that these compounds bind to the active pocket of the enzyme in a similar fashion to that previously described for coumarin derivatives.Öğe Cycloheptyl substituted N-heterocyclic carbene PEPPSI-type palladium complexes with different N-coordinated ligands: Involvement in Suzuki-Miyaura reaction(Elsevier Science Sa, 2019) Karatas, Mert OlgunIn the present study, synthesis and catalytic properties of palladium PEPPSI type complexes of cycloheptyl substituted N-heterocyclic carbene ligand were reported. Different N-coordinate ligands including pyridine, imidazole and thiazole derivatives were used to stabilize the complexes. Structures of complexes were established by H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, IR spectroscopic methods and elemental analyses. All complexes were applied to Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction in aqueous media. After the optimization of reaction conditions, all complexes were tested on the cross coupling of five different aryl chloride derivatives and phenylboronic acid. Pyridine containing complex, 3a performed stronger catalytic performance than others. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.

In this study, we aimed to synthesize coumarin-benzimidazole hybrids in order to investigate their anticancer properties. For this purpose, six 6-substituted-4-chloromethylene coumarin derivatives were synthesized. Sixteen coumarin substituted benzimidazolium chlorides were synthesized by the reaction of 4-chloromethylene coumarin and N-benzylbenzimidazole derivatives. All of the synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, IR spectroscopic techniques and elemental analyses. Cytotoxicities of all compounds were tested by [ 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazole)-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay against human prostate (PC-3) and ovarian (A2780) cancer cells. All compounds performed significant cytotoxicities at 100 mu Magainst both cancer cell lines. Moreover, some compounds performed significant activities at 1 mu M against both cancer cell lines and the obtained results suggest that this type of compounds are promising candidates for the treatment of human prostate and ovarian cancers.Öğe Cytotoxic potential of silver, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, and iridium complexes of a cycloheptyl-substituted lipophilic N-heterocyclic carbene ligand(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Karatas, Mert Olgun; Sekerci, Guldeniz; Tekin, Suat; Sandal, Suleyman; Kucukbay, HasanLipophilicity is a crucial parameter for cytotoxicity of metal complexes, in many cases associated with increased activity. In the present study, we synthesized a series of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of different metals with a lipophilic benzimidazolium chloride to investigate and compare their cytotoxicity. Rh- (4), Ru- (5), and Ir-NHC (6) complexes of a cycloheptyl-substituted benzimidazole-based NHC ligand (1) have been prepared by transmetalation reaction between Ag-NHC and the corresponding metal compound. The newly synthesized complexes have been characterized by NMR, IR, LC-MS spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. The anti-growth effects of the newly synthesized Rh-, Ru-, and Ir-NHC complexes and previously reported NHC precursor (1), Ag- (2), and Pd-NHC (3) complexes against human breast (MCF-7), colorectal (Caco-2), ovarian (A2780), and prostate (LNCaP) cancer cell lines have been investigated by MTT assay. The results revealed that the compounds provide stronger anti-growth effects against all cell lines compared to standard drug cisplatin. Among the compounds, benzimidazolium chloride, and Ag-NHC complex showed promising activities.Öğe Efficiency enhancement with chloride to iodide ion exchange of benzimidazolium salt as a redox mediator(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2021) Dayan, Serkan; Karatas, Mert Olgun; Alici, Bulent; Kalaycioglu Ozpozan, NilgunThe new benzimidazolium derivative (SM-1) salt with ion exchange from the (SM-0) was fabricated and characterized by proton-nuclear magnetic resonance (H-1-NMR), carbon-nuclear magnetic resonance (C-13-NMR), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), electrospray ionization (EIS-MS), thermal analysis (TG), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), for electrolytes (liquid or dried) in the DSSC charge transportation mechanism. Also, the influence of ion exchange from chloride to iodine in the synthesized electrolytes, compared to other electrolytes (conventional or commercial), was investigated about DSSC performance efficiency. When using as a liquid electrolyte (SM-1), the power conversion efficiency (eta) of the working DSSC device was recorded as 1.980% and it was observed that the performances of DSSCs increased up to 56% when comparing dried electrolyte for SM-1 without conventional redox material (I-/I3-). In the future, different molecular modifications of this type of benzimidazole derivatives or mixtures with conventional redox couples may further improve the performance of DSSC devices.Öğe Functionalized imidazolium and benzimidazolium salts as paraoxonase 1 inhibitors: Synthesis, characterization and molecular docking studies(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016) Karatas, Mert Olgun; Uslu, Harun; Alici, Bulent; Gokce, Basak; Gencer, Nahit; Arslan, Oktay; Arslan, N. BurcuParaoxonase (PON) is a key enzyme in metabolism of living organisms and decreased activity of PON1 was acknowledged as a risk for atherosclerosis and organophosphate toxicity. The present study describes the synthesis, characterization, PON1 inhibitory properties and molecular docking studies of functionalized imidazolium and benzimidazolium salts (1a-5g). The structures of all compounds were elucidated by IR, NMR, elemental analysis and structures of compounds 2b and 2c were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1c, a coumarin substituted imidazolium salt showed the best inhibitory effect on the activity of PON1 with good IC50 value (6.37 mu M). Kinetic investigation was evaluated for this compound and results showed that this compound is competitive inhibitor of PON1 with K-1, value of 2.39 mu M. Molecular docking studies were also performed for most active compound 1c and one of least active compound 2c in order to determine the probable binding model into active site of PON1 and validation of the experimental results.

In this study, in vitro effect of some hydroxy and dihydroxy ionic coumarin derivatives (1-20) on purified PON1 activity was investigated. Among these compounds, derivatives 11-20 are water soluble. In investigated compounds, compounds 6 and 13 were found the most active (IC50 = 35 and 34 mu M) for PON1, respectively. The present study has demonstrated that PON1 activity is very highly sensitive to studied coumarin derivatives.Öğe Inhibition of paraoxonase 1 by coumarin-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene silver(I), ruthenium(II) and palladium(II) complexes(Wiley, 2019) Karatas, Mert Olgun; Calgin, Gamze; Alici, Bulent; Gokce, Basak; Gencer, Nahit; Tok, Tugba Taskin; Arslan, OktayWe synthesized three coumarin-substituted benzimidazolium chlorides and their silver(I), ruthenium(II) and palladium(II) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes. All compounds were characterized using appropriate spectroscopic techniques and elemental analyses. Single-crystal X-ray structure of a Pd(II)-NHC complex (6b) was also determined. The inhibitory properties of all compounds were tested on the activity of human paraoxonase 1 (PON1). All complexes exhibited weaker inhibitory properties than their corresponding benzimidazolium salts except for complex 6b which is the most active inhibitor with an IC50 value of 3.01 mu M among the compounds reported in this study. A kinetic evaluation showed that this complex inhibits PON1 activity in a non-competitive manner. Molecular docking studies were also performed for 6b in order to obtain more insight into the binding mode.Öğe Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Novel Perimidinium Salts as N-Heterocyclic Carbene Precursors: Involvement in Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions(Springer, 2015) Onar, Gulnihan; Karatas, Mert Olgun; Alici, Bulent; Cetinkaya, EnginIn the current study, five novel perimidinium chlorides were synthesized in good yields by reaction of 1-(3-methylbenzyl)perimidine with five different alkyl chlorides under microwave irradiation in 30 minutes. Synthesized compounds were characterized by IR, H-1, C-13 NMR spectroscopic methods and elemental analyses.

In this context, firstly, an Ag - NHC (NHC = N -heterocyclic carbene) complex ( 2a ) has been synthesized by the interaction of Ag 2 O and N -(2-methylbenzyl)- N -((anthracen-9-yl) methyl)benzimidazolium chloride ( 1a ). Corresponding Rh - ( 3a ) and Ir - NHC ( 4a ) complexes have also been synthesized by the transmetalation reaction between 2a and corresponding metal compounds. Additionally, for comparison purposes, an ether-functionalized Ag - NHC complex ( 2b ) with N -(methoxyethyl)- N -((anthracene-9- yl)methyl)benzimidazole-2-ylidene ligand, and [AgL 2 ]NO 3 type complex ( 2c ) with a N -coordinated N - ((anthracen-9-yl)methyl)benzimidazole ligand have been synthesized. All complexes have been characterized by the combination of NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques, and elemental analyses. Moreover, solid state structures of 2a , 2b and 4a have been determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Cytotoxic potentials of all compounds have been tested against human lung adenocarcinoma alveolar basal epithelial cell line (A549) using the MTT assay, and all complexes performed strong anti-proliferative activity. Stability studies have disclosed that only 1a and 2c are able to retain their structure in the culture medium (DMEM) that biological assays were carried out. Photophysical measurements revealed that all compounds have similar emission bands because of the conjugation of anthracene group. Finally, 1a and 2c have been visualized by fluorescence confocal microscopy to investigate cellular uptake and subcellular distribution of the complexes, and the findings indicated that both compounds dispersed along the cell membranes nuclear regions.Öğe Palladium(II) and ruthenium(II) complexes of benzotriazole functionalized N-heterocyclic carbenes: Cytotoxicity, antimicrobial, and DNA interaction studies(Elsevier Science Sa, 2019) Onar, Gulnihan; Gurses, Canbolat; Karatas, Mert Olgun; Balcioglu, Sevgi; Akbay, Nuriye; Ozdemir, Namik; Ates, BurhanIn the present study, four palladium and four ruthenium complexes were synthesized with benzotriazole substituted N-heterocyclic carbene ligands. The structures of complexes were established by appropriate spectroscopic methods and elemental analyses. In addition, the crystal structure of a Pd-NHC complex (1c) was reported. Anticancer, antimicrobial and DNA interaction properties of the complexes were examined. Antimicrobial effects of the complexes were tested against two bacteria strains and one fungi strain. Cytotoxic effects of the complexes were tested against human breast (MCF-7) and colorectal (Caco-2) cancer cell lines and non-cancer mouse fibroblast (L-929) cell lines. Ruthenium complexes were found as more cytotoxic than palladium complexes against cancer cell lines. Especially, benzyl containing, benzimidazole-based ruthenium complexes (3c and 3d) were found as non-cytotoxic against non-cancer L-929 cell lines while performing comparable cytotoxicity against Caco-2 cancer cell lines with cisplatin. In addition, DNA interaction studies were performed with pBR322 plasmid DNA and ctDNA and results showed that both palladium and ruthenium complexes have weaker ability to interact with DNA than cisplatin. The results from this study showed that although the cytotoxic properties of the complexes are not stronger than cisplatin, selectivity of benzyl containing benzimidazole-based ruthenium-NHC complexes against Caco-2 cell lines provides them an advantage, and they deserve further research in the treatment of human colorectal cancer.

Trigonal bypiramidal pentacoordinated bis-coumarin-NHC rhodium(I) species, RhCl(NHC)(2), can be obtained by heating rhodium-cod derivatives in the presence of coumarin-azolium salts and a base. These unusual species are stabilized by coordination of the unsaturated bond of both coumarin moieties by the same enantioface. The allyl substituent on doubly functionalized NHC competes for coordination with coumarin wingtips. DFT calculations upon coordination of the olefin moieties support the experimental results.Öğe Ruthenium, rhodium and iridium complexes of a silyl-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene ligand and their catalytic performance in hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes(Elsevier Science Sa, 2023) Mumcu, Akin; Karatas, Mert Olgun; Ozdemir, Namik; Erdogan, Ali; Kucukbay, HasanHerein, [Ru(NHC)(p-cymene)Cl-2] (3) and [MCl(NHC)(cod)] (M=Rh (4) or Ir (5)) (cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene) complexes of a silyl-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene ligand (NHC) have been prepared by the transmetalation reaction between Ag-NHC (2) and corresponding starting metal compound. The characterization of the complexes has been completed by NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Solid state structures of Ag- (2) and Rh-NHC (4) have also been determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. [RhCl(NHC)(CO)(2)] type bis-carbonyl complex (6) has also been prepared and CO stretching frequencies pointed the strong s-donor ability of the silyl-substituted NHC. The catalytic activity of all complexes have been examined in hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes. Among the complexes, Ir-NHC has been found out as active catalyst with around 90% conversion and beta-(Z) selectivity at room temperature. Further studies revealed that this complex is able to maintain its stability in catalytic reaction conditions, chemoselective to alkynes in the presence of alkenes, and operable in scale-up reactions. In contrast, bis-carbonyl Rh-NHC performed 82% beta-(Z) selectivity with full conversion of alkyne in first 4 h of reaction, but when reaction time was extended to 24 h, almost all beta-(Z) vinylsilane isomerised to thermodynamically more stable beta-(E).

Ag-NHC complexes have been synthesized by the interaction of corresponding benzimidazolium chloride and Ag2O. Ru-NHC complexes have been synthesized by the transmetalation reaction between corresponding Ag-NHC and [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 dimer. The synthesized complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, NMR (1H and 13C NMR), and mass (high resolution mass spectroscopy, HRMS) spectroscopic techniques. In order to assess the catalytic potential of the Ru-NHC complexes, we have conducted experiments involving the hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes. Both complexes have exhibited a moderate level of catalytic activity, achieving conversions ranging from 70 to 90%, along with a substantial beta-(Z) selectivity within the range of 80-90%. Furthermore, we have also subjected the benzimidazolium chlorides (1a and 1b), Ag-NHCs and Ru-NHCs to cytotoxicity testing using human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) and human colorectal cancer cells (Caco-2). The results of these assays have demonstrated that all compounds strongly inhibit the proliferation of both cell lines.Öğe Silyl-functionalised silver rhodium and iridium N-heterocyclic carbene complexes with promising cytotoxicity and antimicrobial potential(Elsevier, 2022) Karatas, Mert Olgun; Keskin, Tuba; Ozdemir, Namik; Kucukbay, Hasan; Tekin, Suat; Mansur, Ahmet; Gunal, SelamiIn the present study, we have synthesized Ag, Rh, and Ir complexes of a silyl-substituted NHC ligand in order to investigate their biological properties. Firstly, Ag-NHC (2) complex was synthesized by the interaction of Ag2O with benzimidazolium iodide (1). Rh-(3) and Ir-NHC (4) complexes were synthesized by the transmetalation reaction between Ag-NHC and [M(cod)Cl]2 (M = Rh or Ir) dimers. The complexes were characterised by NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses, and crystal structures of Rh-and Ir-NHC (3 and 4) were also reported. The cytotoxic effects of the complexes were tested on four human cancer cell lines and the antimicrobial activities of the complexes were tested against a panel of nine pathogenic microorganisms.

Human serum paraoxonase 1 was purified from fresh human serum blood by two-step procedures that are ammonium sulfate precipitation (60-80%) and then hydrophobic interaction chromatography (Sepharose 4B, L-tyrosine and 1-napthylamine). The enzyme was purified 232-fold with a final specific activity of 27.1 U/mg. In vitro effects of some previously synthesized ionic coumarin or benzoxazinone derivatives (1-21) on purified PON1 activity were investigated. Compound 14 (1-(2,3,4,5,6)-pentamethyl-benzyl-3-(6,8-dimethyl-2H-chromen-2-one-4-yl)) benzimidazolium chloride was found out as the strongest inhibitor (IC50 = 7.84 mu M) for PON1 among the compounds. Kinetic investigation and molecular docking study were evaluated for one of the most active compounds (compound 12) and obtained data showed that this compound is competitive inhibitor of PON1 and interact with Leu262 and Ser263 in the active site of PON1. Moreover, coumarin derivatives were found out as the more potent inhibitors for PON1 than benzoxazinone derivatives.
