Abstract

The coordination compounds of streptomycin (St), Co2(St)Cl4.13H2O (2), Co2(St)(NO3)4.7H2O (3), Ni2(St)Cl4.14H2O (4), Ni2(St)(NO3)4.14H2O (5), Cu2(St)Cl4.6H2O (6), and Ca(St)Cl2.8H2O (7) have been synthesized by the reaction of streptomycin sulfate (1) with three equivalents of the corresponding inorganic salt. The compounds (2)-(7) were characterized by electronic spectroscopy (in the solid state and in solution) by conductivity measurements and by 13C NMR in solution. The reaction of streptomycin with CuCl2 in water hydrolyzed the molecule giving the copper complex of the streptidine fraction (Std), Cu(Std)Cl.H2O (8). This compound was characterized by the same techniques. Detailed x-ray diffraction and 13C NMR studies of streptidine sulfate (9) were carried out.
