Hence, the development of efficient heterogeneous catalysts for cyanosilylation of carbonyl compounds with TMSCN is a very important subject in current research, and several efficient catalysts have been developed so far. However, from the point of green chemistry, it is a pressing challenge to seek an efficient heterogeneous catalyst under environmentally friendly conditions.[5, 6] Thus there is a great need for the developing efficient and environmental friendly catalysts for cyanohydrin reaction. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are exciting hybrid materials with a plethora of potential applications including gas storage, gas separation, catalysis, and drug delivery.[7–12] They are crystalline nanoporous materials comprised of ordered networks formed from organic electron donor CONTACT Yu Zhao yu_zhao666@126.com ENT Department, Fuling Center Hospital of Chongqing City, Chongqing, China.

R ET linkers and metal cations or clusters, whose pore size and surroundings could be designed and controlled via elaborately selection of the building blocks. In particular, MOFs have been widely studied as size- and shape-selective heterogeneous catalysts due to their large pore size, high BET surface areas and diverse functionalizations.[13–15] For the optimal catalytic activity, two types of strategies are used: (i) introduction of organic groups to provide guest-accessible functional organic sites and (ii) formation of coordinatively unsaturated metal sites. If the metal is coordinatively saturated, the organic moiety incorporating functionality for non-covalent interactions can bind the reactant(s) through H-bonding, p–p stacking, as examples., leading to their activation. In another case, metal ions bound to one or more solvent molecules can be heated to remove the solvent molecules exposing the metal ion to the reactants that can directly bind the metal ion and hence can be activated. Since the first discovery by Fujita et al, many papers concerning the MOFs-based catalysts for cyanosilylation have been reported.[16–18] For instance, Kaskel and coworkers have revealed that MIL-101-Cr is an efficient catalyst for the cyanosilylation of benzaldehyde after the removal of the coordinated water molecules.[17] On the other hand, coordination chemistry has a great potential to offer a wide variety of compounds with different geometry, redox reactivity and a diversity of mechanisms related to DNA binding, some of them unique to metals.[19] The usefulness of coordination metal complexes in cancer chemotherapy has been demonstrated by Cisplatin and other platinum coordination compounds which are amongst the most successfully used anticancer drugs.[20] As a result of an intense and continued research on coordination complexes with antitumor activity, compounds of different metals other than Pt are entering clinical studies. Recent studies have shown that the Cu(II)based coordination compounds show promising results.[21] For instance, Guo and co-works have successfully prepared a lanthanide MOF which shows high cytotoxicity toward the human lung cancer cell A549[22]; Mukherjee and coworkers have reported that the have studied the cytotoxic activity of the nanostructured MOFs on human colorectal carcinoma cell lines, and found that some of them could significantly lead to the cancer cell death.[23] Although there are many MOFs have been shown to be capable of catalyzing cyanosilylation or inhibiting human cancer cells, none of them can achieve the above mentioned two functions simultaneously. In this study, a new dual-functional metal-organic framework with the chemical formula of [Cu7(nbpt)4(H2O)2 (OH)4](DMF)5(H2O) (1, DMF ¼ N,N-dimethylformamide) based on a Y-shaped tricarboxylic ligand 30 -nitro-[1,10 biphenyl]-3,40 ,5-tricarboxylic acid (H3nbpt) has been achieved under solvothermal conditions. This compound has been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric and X-ray diffraction analyses. The crystal structure analysis reveals that compound 1 is composed of a {Cu7(OH)4}10þ secondary building unit that is connected by the nbpt3 ligands into a 3D framework with 1D nanosized channels running along the b axis. Compound 1 was investigated for its heterogeneous catalytic activities towards the cyanosilylation of aldehydes under solvent-free conditions, which shows that it catalytic activities could be greatly enhanced by removing the coordinated solvents, indicating that the exposed open metal sites of in the activated 1 (1a) is beneficial to the cyanosilylation reaction.

The Cu(II)-O bond distances range from 1.920(2) Å to 2.197(3) Å, which locate in the normal range among the Cu(II)-O bond distances of the reported Cu(II)-carboxylate MOFs in the literature.[24–26] Cu1, Cu3, Cu4 and their symmetry-related ones are held together via four l3-OH groups and the Cu2 atom to give rise to the {Cu7(OH)4}10þ cluster, which serves as the secondary building unit in the formation of the network of 1. In the {Cu7(OH)4}10þ cluster, As for the nbpt3- ligands, they reveal the same five-connected mode but with their carboxylic groups showing different coordination modes which are shown in the Figure 1b. The connection of the {Cu7(OH)4}10þ cluster with the nbpt3ligands generates a porous three-dimensional framework with 1D rhombus channels running along the b axis. The window size for the 1D channel is 10.4;8.2 Å2, which fills with water occupied open metal sites and the uncoordinated nitro-groups (Figure 1c). The l3-OH group forms H-bonding interaction with the carboxylic O atom and the donoracceptor distance is 2.165 Å (O1-H1O13, Figure S1). With omitting the coordinated water molecules, PLATON analysis revealed that the 3D framework was composed of voids of 978 Å3, which represent 40.1% per unit cell volume. TOPOS software was used to simplify this framework. In this 3D framework, the {Cu7(OH)4}10þ cluster could be treated as 12-connected node, and the nbpt3- ligands could be considered as 3-connected nodes, so the whole framework of 1 could be viewed as a llj-type 3,12-connected net with a point symbol of {420.628.818}{43}4 (Figure 1d).

It should be noted that only white deposition was obtained without the presence of HNO3, indicating the HNO3 might be a pH regulator which is very important for the crystallization. It has been shown that the addition of HNO3 plays a vital role in the formation of the MOF-505 series. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that compound 1 crystallizes in triclinic P-1 space group and features a three-dimensional framework based on the {Cu7(OH)4}10þ secondary building unit. The asymmetric unit of 1 is composed of four crystallographically independent Cu(II) ions, two nbpt3 ligand, two l3-OH groups and two coordinated water molecules. As shown in Figure 1a, the Cu1 atom is four-coordinated by four O atoms from three carboxylic O atoms and one l3-OH group, forming a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment; The distorted octahedral coordination surrounding of Cu2 is finished by four l3-OH groups and two carboxylic O atoms; Cu3 shows a similar coordination surrounding with Cu2 expect the six O atoms come from three carboxylic O atoms, two l3-OH groups and one coordinated water; Cu4 atom show the similar four-coordinated surrounding with Cu1 The simulated and experimental PXRD patterns of 1 are shown in Figure S 2a (Supplemental Materials). A good match between the experimental and theoretical PXRD patterns was observed, which is the evidence for the phase purity and structural consistency of the bulky products for crystalline 1. In addition, the thermal stability of 1 was also analyzed on crystalline samples from 30-800 C under N2 atmosphere (Figure S2b). The TGA curve of 1 shows that it has a weight loss of 19.4% in the temperature range of 30–210 C, which is consistent with the removal of two coordinated H2O, five free DMF molecules and one lattice H2O molecules (calcd 19.6%). After taking off the solvent molecules, the framework of 1 can be stable up to 250 C, after which the framework began to collapse. The permanent porosity of the activated 1 (1a) was unambiguously established by its N2 sorption isotherm at 77 K. The activated sample 1a was prepared by exchanging in dichloromethane overnight and then activated under dynamic vacuum at 110 C for 6 h. The framework integrality has been characterized by PXRD measurement, which shows a good match between the PXRD patterns of 1 and 1a, indicating that the framework was maintained because the broadened peaks positions remained (Figure S 2a). The full activation of the framework has been confirmed via the TGA curve, which reveals that there is no obvious weight loss before the temperature of 251 C. The N2 sorption isotherms of the J.

Catalytic activity ET activated sample at 77 K revealed a completely reversible type-I behavior, a characteristic of microporous materials (Figure S 3). Based on the N2 adsorption data, the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area and Langmuir surface area of 1a were calculated to be 821 m2g1 and 953 m2g1, respectively with a corresponding pore volume of 0.36 cm3 g1. The pore size distribution centers around 8.36 Å (as determined using the Horvath–Kawazoe method), which are basically similar to the results from the singlecrystal X-ray diffraction study (Figure S 3 inset). R As is well-known, the cyanosilylation reaction is an effective chemical method to obtain cyanohydrins. Complex 1 possesses 1D open channels and unsaturated metal sites after the removal of coordinated water molecules, indicating its potential properties as a heterogeneous catalyst. Therefore, the cyanosilylation of aromatic aldehydes with different substituent groups were selected to test the catalytic ability of 1a (Scheme 1). Under N2 atmosphere, a solution of aldehyde (0.5 mmol) and cyanotrimethylsilane (1 mmol) was added to activated the samples of complex 1a (10 mg) at room temperature. After the reaction was stirred for 4 h, the mixtures were separated by a centrifuge. The liquid part was utilized to analyze the conversions by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry and the results are summarized in Table 1. Using 1a as the catalyst, the conversion of benzaldehyde and its derivatives can reach above 97–99% under the given conditions, while the yields are only about 45-67% for 1 under the same conditions. The cyanosilylation yield of 1a is much higher than that of many MOFs used for the cyanosilylation study under similar conditions, which might be ascribed to its large inner spaces and high density of exposed metal Table 2.

This can be attributed to more open metal sites of Cu2þ in 1a, which can effective enhance the catalytic activity. The stability of compound 1a was examined after the catalytic study by PXRD, which reveals the same PXRD pattern as the as-synthesized phase, indicating that the compound was stable (Figure S 2a). In addition, the parallel experiment without a catalyst was also done, and the conversion of benzaldehyde and its derivative is below 20%. These results indicate that compound 1a can be used as an efficient catalyst for the cyanosilylation reaction under mild conditions. To further explore whether the activation of the carbonyl species occurs inside the pores or on the surface of the solid catalyst, substrates of increasing dimensions were tested, a significant size-selectivity effect is observed with catalyst, when the substrate was 1-naphthaldehyde with dimensions 9.7 8.4 Å2, the conversion was reduced to 24.25% for 1a. Based on the experimental results and previously reported results, a plausible reaction mechanism is proposed to illustrate the process of 1a catalyzed cyanosilylation reaction.[27–29] The labile water molecules in the channels of compound 1 were removed by heating to expose the unsaturated metal sites previously. The aldehydes were activated by the coordinatively unsaturated Cu centers to react with TMSCN (Scheme 2).

Empirical formula 833 R ET The cytotoxicity of the organic ligand H3nbpt and 1 and the reference drug vinorebine were evaluated by MTT (3-(4,5Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay method against four human laryngocarcinoma cells (TU212, Hep-2, M4E and TU686). Compounds were dissolved in DMSO and blank samples containing the same volume of DMSO were taken as controls to identify the activity of solvent in this cytotoxicity experiment. The anticancer drug Vinorebine was used as a positive control to assess the cytotoxicity of the test compounds. The results were analyzed by means of cell inhibition expressed as IC50 values and they are shown in Table 2. The organic ligand was inactive against all of these cell lines (IC50 > 100 lM). At this concentration, it should exert high cytotoxicity against these cells, so we concluded that it exerted no inhabitation selectivity towards these cell lines. However, after the tumor cells were incubated in the presence of compound 1 for 72 h, the IC50 value ranged from 25 to 40 lM, some of which were even lower than those of vinorebine, indicating that compound 1 exhibited antitumor activity against all of these cell lines in different degrees. It is to be noted that the ligand and Cu(NO3)2 did not show any significant activity on all the four cancer cells, which confirmed that the chelation of the ligand with the Cu(II) ion is the only responsible factor for the observed cytotoxic properties of the new compounds. Experimental Materials and instrumentation All reagents and solvents employed in this work were commercially available and used without further purification. X-ray crystallography Single crystal X-ray crystal data of 1 was collected on a computer–controlled Oxford Xcalibu E diffractometer with graphite–monochromated Mo–Ka radiation (k ¼ 0.71073 Å) at room temperature. Absorption corrections were applied using SADABS. The structures were solved by direct methods by the SHELXS-2014 package and refined by full–matrix least–square methods on F2 by using the SHELXL-2014/6. All non–hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically and all H atoms were generated in their ideal locations. Crystallographic data and refinement details are summarized in Table 3, and the selected bond distances and angles for compound 1 are given in Table S 1 (Supplemental Materials). The H-bond details are listed in the Table S2. Antitumor activity The anticancer activity of compound 1 was evaluated against four human laryngocarcinoma cells (TU212, Hep-2, M4E and TU686) via the MTT assay. The two cancer cells were seeded in a 96-well plate in which cells density is 5000 cells per test well, and cultured overnight at 37 C in a 5% CO2 incubator. The tested compounds were dispersed in DMSO and diluted in the respective medium containing 1% fetal bovine serum (FBS). After 24 h, the medium was replaced with the respective medium with 1% FBS containing the compound 1 at various concentrations. After 48 h, 10 lL of MTT (5 mg/mL) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) was added to each well and incubated at 37 C for 4 h. The medium with MTT was then flicked off, and the formed formazan crystals were dissolved in 100 lL of DMSO. The J. ZHOU ET AL. absorbance was then measured at 570 nm using a microplate reader.

Crystal structure analysis reveals that compound 1 is composed of {Cu7(OH)4}10þ secondary building unit that connected by the nbpt3 ligands into a 3D framework with 1D nanosized channels running along the b axis.
