Heterobimetallic complexes of Zn(II) and Sn(IV) with sarcosine have been synthesized at room temperature under stirring conditions by the reaction of sarcosine and zinc acetate in 2 : 1 molar ratio followed by the stepwise addition of CS2and organotin(IV) halides, where R = Me,n-Bu, and Ph. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and NMR (1H,13C) spectroscopy. IR data showed that the ligand acts in a bidentate manner. NMR data revealed the four coordinate geometry in solution state.In vitroantimicrobial activities data showed that complexes (3) and (4) were effective against bacterial and fungal strains with few exceptions.

Herein, we describe the synthesis and characterization of a Schiff base ligand (E)-N'-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-4-methoxybenzohydrazide (HBMB) and its Mn(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) metal complexes (C1-C3) respectively. The ligand HBMB was synthesized by reacting condensation of salicylaldehyde and 4-methoxy benzohydrazide in a 1:1 molar ratio. The structure of HBMB and its metal complexes (C1-C3) were evaluated by using UV-Vis, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, mass spectroscopy as well as on the basis of elemental analysis, conductivity measurements, and thermogravimetric techniques (TGA). The synthesized molecules' tumoricidal properties were performed against human breast cancer (MCF-7) and colon cancer (HT 29) cell lines. The biological results indicated that the ligand, HBMB, and metal complexes possess dose-dependent selective cytotoxicity against the tested carcinoma cells. The synthesized compounds were further evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activities against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus), Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli), and fungal strains (Aspergillus niger).

Reactions of the labile complex (Me3tach)M(CO)3 (Me3tach = 1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane; M = W, Mo) with bis(phenylthio)alkanes ( = PhS(CH2)nSPh), (2:3 molar ratio) in CH2Cl2 as solvent (at 35 oC M = W, 0 oC M = Mo) afforded in good yields bimetallic tricarbonyl complexes triply- bridged by bis(phenylthio)alkanes of the type [M(CO)3]2(μ-PhS-(CH2)n-SPh)3 [n = 3 (a), 4 (b), 5 (c), 6 (d); M = W (1), Mo (2)]. These new triply-bridged complexes were characterized by 1H NMR, FT-IR and elemental analysis. Additionally, it has been observed that the thermodynamic stability of some of these new complexes in chlorinated hydrocarbons depends mainly on the nature of the metal center and varies in the order W >> Mo.

Binuclear metal complexes of the metal ions Fe (II), Co (II), Ni (II) and Cu (II) were synthesized by the reaction of these metal ions with the imine of benzidine (H2L) as a primary ligand and o-phenylenediammine (OPD) as a secondary ligand  in a molar ratio of 2:2:1. The prepared complexes were characterized using CHN elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-visible, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility and TGA-DTA thermogravimetric analysis. All the prepared complexes showed apparent stability and could be stored for months without any appreciable change. According to the results obtained by elemental and spectral analyses, a tetrahedral structure is suggested for all the prepared complexes, except for the copper complex which showed a square planar structure. The antimicrobial activities of these complexes were evaluated against Bacillus spp. (Gram-negative bacteria), Proteus spp. (Gram-positive bacteria) and Aspergillus niger (A. niger, a fungal species). The results showed that all the prepared complexes have no apparent effects on Bacillus spp. viability, whereas Proteus spp.  and A. niger were affected significantly.

A bidentate (N- and O-) imine-based ligand (L1) and its metal complexes of types [CuII(L1)2] (C1), [CuII(L1)(Phen)] (C2), [CoIII(L1)2] (C3), and [CoIII(L1)(Phen)] (C4) (L1 = 2-((E)-(6-fluorobenzo[d]thiazol-2-ylimino)methyl)-4-chlorophenol and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) were synthesized as potential chemotherapeutic drug candidates. The prepared complexes were structurally characterized by spectral techniques (NMR, FT-IR, LC-MS, EPR, and electronic absorption), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTA), magnetic moment, and CHNO elemental analysis. Spectroscopic studies suggested the distorted octahedral structure for all complexes. In vitro bioassay studies include binding and nuclease activities of the ligand and its complexes with target calf thymus- (CT-) DNA were carried out by employing UV-Vis, fluorescence spectroscopy, viscosity, and gel electrophoresis techniques. The extent of binding propensity was determined quantitatively by Kb and Ksv values which revealed a higher binding affinity for C2 and C4 as compared to C1 and C3. In addition, the scavenging superoxide anion free radical (O∙-2) activity of metal complexes was determined by nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) light reduction assay. Molecular docking studies with DNA and SOD enzyme were also carried out on these compounds. The antimicrobial study has shown that all the compounds are potential antibacterial agents against Gram-negative bacterial strains and better antifungal agents with respect to standard drugs used.

Sijunzi decoction (SJZD) is a classical herbal prescription in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) used for enhancing the function of immune system. In previous studies, a polysaccharide fraction S-3 was screened from SJZD by assessment of immune system regulation, intestinal microbiota, and SCFA in order to explore the immune active ingredients in SJZD. In the present study, S-3 was further purified, and a homogeneous polysaccharide S-3-1 with a molecular mass of 13.5 × 104 Da was obtained after further fractionation by Sephadex G-150 size-exclusion chromatography. The immunological activities of S-3-1 were assayed in vitro for the first time. The determination of the anticomplement activity showed that S-3-1 displayed inhibitory effects on classical pathway of the complement system, with CH50 values of 530 μg/mL. The FT-IR analysis showed that S-3-1 had absorptive peaks characteristic of polysaccharides. The methylation and GC-MS analysis showed that it is comprised of Rha, Ara, Xyl, Man, Gal, and Glc in a relative molar ratio of 0.35 : 0.37 : 1.4 : 0.31 : 3 : 0.8 and that it mainly contained 1,4-linked-Glc and 1,6-linked-Gal glycosidic bonds. The morphology of S-3-1 was observed by atomic force microscope (AFM). These results provided evidences for tracking the material basis of SJZD immune activity.

A mixed ligand Cd(II) complex [Cd(IsoPht)(TEA)H2O]·3H2O was synthesized for the first time by using isophthalic acid (H2IsoPht) and tetradentate triethanolamine (TEA) and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, FT-IR, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). This novel complex crystallizes in the triclinic system with P-1 space group and distorted monocapped trigonal prismatic geometry. The Cd(II) has seven coordinates with bidentate IsoPht, a TEA in the tetradentate mode, and an aqua ligand. The fluorescence properties of the Cd(II) complex and TEA ligand were investigated at room temperature. The present Cd(II) complex was also tested for its antimicrobial activity by in vitro agar diffusion method against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and a fungus.

Abstract N-heterocyclic carbene salts bearing alkyl substituents (1-8) and their selenium N-heterocyclic carbene adducts (9-12) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR (1HNMR, 13CNMR) spectroscopic techniques. All the adducts were found to be stable in air and moisture at room temperature. Compounds (5-12) were evaluated against Bacillus subtilis Macrococcus brunensis and Bacillus cereus in vitro. The biological assay revealed that antibacterial activity of Selenium-N-heterocyclic carbene adducts are comparatively better than the salts. MIC and inhibition zone values showed that Bacillus subtilis is more active to selenium adducts (9-12) than Macrococcus brunensis and Bacillus cereus whereas opposite in the salts (5-8). In vitro studies of hemolysis and thrombolysis demonstrated that the synthesized compounds are innocuous for pre-clinical trials to mouse blood.

A series of sixteen new ionic liquids (ILs) bearing imidazolium moiety were designed and synthesized under sustainable and green conditions which were confirmed by analytical and spectral techniques using 1H- & 13C-NMR, FT-IR, mass and elemental analysis. A panel of clinically isolated strains was used for in vitro inhibitory antimicrobial activities screening of synthesized ionic liquids. The results of antimicrobial assay showed that some of synthesized ionic liquids showed moderate to good activity. Among these ILs, ionic liquids 3, 4 and 5 (bearing alkyl chain with a phenyl group) significantly inhibited cell growth of strains. In this regard, these ionic liquids considered as promising antibacterial agents when compared with standard antibiotics. By encouraging in vitro antimicrobial screening, in silico ADMET evaluation has been performed and found excellent pharmacokinetic, bioavailability and toxicity profiles. Synthesized ionic liquids has found to be safe and non-toxic according to calculated in vivo computed LD50 values (2.49-2.80 mg/kg) for rat acute toxicity.
