Afin de développer des méthodes alternatives à l'activation de systèmes Pi en catalyse homogène par des métaux nobles coûteux et toxiques, nous nous sommes focalisés sur des complexes métalliques et plus particulièrement ceux de la colonne du group XIII. Cette thèse approche une contribution à ce champ d'études, et nous nous sommes particulièrement concentrés sur la chimie de gallium.Trois principaux aspects ont été étudiés dans ce manuscrit: la réactivité des halogénures de gallium(III), des complexes bien définis de gallium (III) portant carbènes N- hétérocycliques (NHCs), et leur activation de systèmes en catalyse.La thèse est divisée en trois chapitres. Le premier chapitre donne un aperçu des travaux effectués dans le domaine de la synthèse organique faisant intervenir des composés de gallium (III) , en se concentrant sur ​​leur utilisation en tant qu’ acides de Lewis et .Dans le deuxième chapitre, nous avons tenté d'exploiter le potentiel catalytique de GaCl3 dans une nouvelle réaction de cycloisomérisation/Friedel-Crafts en tandem. Une section dédiée à l'étude sur l’hydratation d’alcyne catalysée par GaCl3 est également fournie.Le troisième chapitre commence par une description de la synthèse d'une série de complexes de gallium (III) portant diverses NHCs comme ligands pour surmonter les limites des halogénures de gallium(III) en catalyse. Ensuite, des études de méthodologie sur le processus de tandem impliquant arenynes-1,6 avec les gallium(III) complexes neutres et cationiques ont été décrits. Une évaluation cinétique pour des catalyseurs, des divers substrats et l'influence de contreanions sont discutés. En outre, les efforts dans la version asymétrique de cette tandem transformation et des autres cyclisations sont également présentés.Le dernier chapitre reprend les résultats les plus importants obtenus dans la thèse. Et les orientations futures de la recherche sur l'utilisation des complexes NHC- gallium (III) sont discutées. / Recently, in order to develop alternative activation methods for Pi-systems in homogeneous catalysis instead of employing expensive and toxic noble metal catalysts, first row transition metals and main group metal complexes have attracted great attention. This thesis is a contribution to it, and we focus on gallium chemistry. There are three main aspects dominating this thesis: gallium(III) halides, well-defined gallium(III) complexes bearing N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), and -systems activation in catalysis.The thesis is divided into three chapters. Chapter I provides an overview of the field of organic synthesis involving gallium(III) compounds, focusing on their use as - or -Lewis acids.In Chapter II, we expose our attempts to exploit the catalytic potential of gallium(III) chloride in a novel tandem cycloisomerization/Friedel-Crafts reaction. A section dedicated to the study on GaCl3-catalyzed alkyne hydration is also provided.Chapter III begins with a description of the synthesis of a series of gallium(III) complexes bearing various NHCs as ligands in order to overcome the limitations of gallium(III) halides in catalysis. Next, methodology studies on the tandem process involving 1,6-arenynes with the neutral and cationic gallium(III) complexes are described. The evaluation of scission kinetics for catalysts, substrates variation and influence of counteranions are discussed. In addition, efforts towards the asymmetric version of this tandem transformation and some other cyclizations are also presented.The concluding chapter reiterates the most important results obtained in the body chapters of the thesis. To conclude, the future directions for the research on the use of the NHC-gallium(III) complexes are discussed.

Para investigar o efeito da modificação química sobre as bioatividades do fármaco isoniazida, foram preparados cinco derivados hidrazônicos: 2-piridinocarboxaldeído isonicotinoil hidrazona (HPCIH, 1), 2-acetilpiridina isonicotinoil hidrazona (HAPIH, 2), 2-benzoilpiridina isonicotinoil hidrazona (HBPIH, 3), 2-piridinoformamida isonicotinoil hidrazona (HPAmIH, 4) e 2-pirazinoformamida isonicotinoil hidrazona (HPzAmIH, 5), sendo o composto HPAmIH (4) inédito. Análises de ponto de fusão, espectroscopia de infravermelho (IV), espectrometria de massas, ressonância magnética nuclear (RMN), análise elementar e termogravimetria confirmaram a obtenção e pureza das hidrazonas. Foi determinada ainda a estrutura de HPCIH (1) por difração de raios X de monocristal. Essas moléculas foram efetivas em inibir o crescimento de cepas de micobactérias Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (ATCC 27294) nas concentrações testadas, com exceção de HPzAmIH (5). As hidrazonas HAPIH (2) e HBPIH (3) foram os compostos orgânicos mais ativos (concentração inibitória mínima, CIM = 0,625 g/mL), apresentando atividade antimicobacteriana apenas duas vezes inferior à do fármaco isoniazida.Quanto à ação contra células tumorais, as hidrazonas HAPIH (2) e HBPIH (3) foram as mais potentes contra as linhagens OVCAR-8 (tumor de ovário - humano), HCT-116 (tumor de cólon - humano) e SF-295 (glioblastoma humano), com inibições de 34,98 a 98,63% do crescimento celular, na concentração de 5 g/mL, enquanto que a isoniazida não foi efetiva contra as linhagens estudadas. Para avaliar o efeito da coordenação a metais sobre a atividade farmacológica das hidrazonas, foram sintetizados os complexos de cobre(II) e gálio(III), sendo todos inéditos: [Cu(HPCIH)Cl2]∙H2O (6), [Cu(HAPIH)Cl2]∙H2O (7), [Cu2(HBPIH)2Cl2]Cl2∙4H2O(8), [Cu(HPAmIH)Cl2]∙H2O (9), [Cu(HPzAmIH)Cl2]∙H2O (10), [Ga(HPCIH)2](NO3)32H2O (11), [Ga(HAPIH)(APIH)](NO3)22H2O (12), [Ga(HPAmIH)(PAmIH)](NO3)22H2O(13) e [Ga(HPzAmIH)(PzAmIH)](NO3)2H2O (14). Os complexos foram caracterizados por espectroscopia de IV, análise elementar, condutivimetria, RMN e espectroscopia eletrônica. Em geral, os complexos também demonstraram ação contra M. tuberculosis, sendo que apenas para 6, 9, 10 e 14 foi verificada melhor atividade em relação às hidrazonas livres. Os complexos metálicos foram tanto quanto ou mais ativos contra as células tumorais OVCAR-8, HCT-116 e SF-295 do que as hidrazonas livres. Merecem destaque os complexos 79 e 12, que apresentaram inibição de crescimento celular de 72,2100%, na concentração de 5 g/mL. Os resultados demonstram portanto que em geral os compostos 114 são menos ativos do que a isoniazida contra M. tuberculosis, enquanto que a modificação química do fármaco, formando-se hidrazonas com posterior complexação cobre(II) e gálio(III) constituíram uma estratégia interessante na obtenção de compostos mais potentes contra células tumorais / In this work we describe the synthesis of isoniazide-derived hydrazones and their copper(II) and gallium(III) complexes candidates for drug prototypes to treat antituberculosis and cancer. Five hidrazone derivatives have been prepared in order to investigate the effect of chemical modification on the bioactivities of the drug isoniazid: 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (HPCIH, 1), 2-acetylpyridine isonicotinoyl hydrazone (HAPIH, 2), 2-benzoylpyridine isonicotinoyl hydrazone (HBPIH, 3), 2-pyridineformamide isonicotinoyl hydrazone (HPAmIH, 4) and pyrazineformamide 2-isonicotinoyl hydrazone (HPzAmIH, 5), being HPAmIH (4) unpublished. Melting point, infrared spectroscopy (IR), mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis has confirmed the formation of hydrazones as well as its purity. All compounds have been effective in inhibiting the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (ATCC 27294) mycobacteria strains in the tested concentrations, except HPzAmIH (5). The hydrazones HAPIH (2) and HBPIH (3) have been the most active compounds (minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC = 0.625 g/mL), which have presented the antimycobacterial activity only two times lower than isoniazid drug. In relation to the action against tumor cells, the hydrazones HAPIH (2) and HBPIH (3) have been the most potent compounds against the cell lines OVCAR-8 (ovarian tumor - human), HCT-116 (colon tumor - human) and SF-295 (glioblastoma - human), with inhibitions from 34.98 to 98.63% of cellular growth at a concentration of 5 g/mL. Isoniazid, in turn, hasnt been effective against all cell lines studied. To evaluate the effect of coordinating the metal on the pharmacological activity of hydrazones, complexes of copper (II) and gallium (III) have been synthesized, being all novel compounds: [Cu(HPCIH)Cl2]∙H2O (6), [Cu(HAPIH)Cl2]∙H2O (7), [Cu2(HBPIH)2Cl2]Cl2∙4H2O(8), [Cu(HPAmIH)Cl2]∙H2O (9), [Cu(HPzAmIH)Cl2]∙H2O (10), [Ga(HPCIH)2](NO3)32H2O (11), [Ga(HAPIH)(APIH)](NO3)22H2O (12), [Ga(HPAmIH)(PAmIH)](NO3)22H2O (13) and [Ga(HPzAmIH)(PzAmIH)](NO3)2H2O (14).The complexes have been characterized by IR spectroscopy, NMR, elemental analysis, conductivimetry and electron spectroscopy. In general, these complexes have also shown action against M. tuberculosis, whereas only 6, 9, 10 and 14 have demonstrated better activity than the free hydrazones. The metal complexes have been equally or more active against human the cancer cell lines OVCAR-8, HCT-116 and SF-295 than the free hydrazones. The complexes 79 and 12 deserve to be highlighted, which have shown 72.2100% inhibition of cell growth in the 5 g/mL concentration. The results therefore demonstrate that in general compounds 114 are less active than isoniazid against M. tuberculosis, while chemical modification of the drug, forming hydrazones and subsequent complexation with the copper (II) and gallium(III) metal ions have been an interesting strategy to obtain compounds more potent against tumor cells
