Characterization Of Wy 14,643 And Its Complex With Aldose Reductase, Michael R. Sawaya, Malkhey Verma, Vaishnavi Balendiran, Nigam P. Rath, Duilio Cascio, Ganesaratnam K. Balendiran

The peroxisome proliferator, WY 14,643 exhibits a pure non-competitive inhibition pattern in the aldehyde reduction and in alcohol oxidation activities of human Aldose reductase (hAR). Fluorescence emission measurements of the equilibrium dissociation constants, Kd, of oxidized (hAR•NADP+) and reduced (hAR•NADPH) holoenzyme complexes display a 2-fold difference between them. Kd values for the dissociation of WY 14,643 from the oxidized (hAR•NADP+•WY 14,643) and reduced (hAR•NADPH•WY 14,643) ternary complexes are comparable to each other. The ternary complex structure of hAR•NADP+•WY 14,643 reveals the first structural evidence of a fibrate class drug binding to hAR. These observations demonstrate how fibrate molecules such as …

The asymmetric unit of the title crystal, [FeCl2(C3H9P)3(CO)]·[FeCl2(C3H9P)2(CO)2]·2C4H8O, contains half mol­ecules of the two closely related FeII complexes lying on mirror planes and a tetra­hydro­furan solvent mol­ecule, one C atom of which is disordered over two sets of sites with site occupancy factors 0.633 (9) and 0.367 (9). In both FeII complex mol­ecules, a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry has been observed around the Fe atoms. Weak intermolecular C-H...O inter­actions are observed in the crystal structure.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C12H8Cl4N2, mol­ecules lie on crystallographic twofold axes at the centre of the C-C bonds linking the benzene rings, such that the asymmetric unit consists of a half-mol­ecule. The individual mol­ecules participate in inter­molecular N-H...N, N-H...Cl, C-H...Cl and Cl...Cl [3.4503 (3) Å] inter­actions.

Catena-Poly[[(Pyridine-Κn)Copper(Ii)]-Μ3-Pyridine-2,6-Dicarboxylato-Κ3o2:O2′,N,O6:O6′], Manoj Trivedi, Daya Shankar Pandey, Nigam P. Rath

In the title compound, [Cu(C7H3NO4)(C5H5N)]n, the CuII atom is in a slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination environment. Each CuII atom is bound to two N atoms and one O atom of the pyridine­dicarboxyl­ate (PDA) ligand in a tridentate manner, one N atom of the pyridine mol­ecule and two bridging carboxyl­ate O atoms of adjacent PDA ligands, leading to a linear one-dimensional chain running along the c axis. These chains are further assembled via weak C-H...O and [pi]-[pi] inter­actions into a three-dimensional supra­molecular network structure. The centroid-centroid distance between the [pi]-[pi] inter­acting pyridine rings is 3.9104 (13) Å. The two N atoms …

In the title compound, [Mo(C5H4NO2)2O2], the MoVI atom exhibits a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry formed by two terminal oxo ligands and two monoanionic O,O-bidentate pyridinone ligands. The two terminal oxo ligands lie in a cis arrangement, the ketonic O atoms of the pyridinone ligands are coordinated trans to the oxo ligands and the deprotonated hydroxyl O atoms are located trans to each other. The crystal structure contains inter­molecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds, C-H...O contacts and face-to-face [pi]-[pi] stacking inter­actions with an inter­planar separation of 3.25 (1) Å.

In the title compound, C22H21N3O6Se, the heterocyclic ring makes dihedral angles of 50.03 (11) and 67.75 (11)°, respectively, with the benzene and phenyl rings. The terminal C atoms of the ester groups are disordered over two positions: the site occupancies for the C atoms are 0.62 (3)/0.38 (3) and 0.48 (3)/0.52 (3). In the crystal structure, weak intra- and inter­molecular C-H...O inter­actions are observed.
