Nickel(II) acetate tetrahydrate was treated with the ligand CH2(H2sal-sbdt)2in methanol heated at reflux to yield a novel binuclear Ni(II) nanorod complex of the formulaCH2{Ni(II)(sal-sbdt)(H2O)}2. The ligand of CH2(H2sal-sbdt)2was derived from 5,5′-methylene-bissalicylaldehyde andS-benzyldithiocarbazate. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis, FT-IR spectra, thermal analysis (TG-DSC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The nickel(II) was coordinated by imino nitrogen, thiolato sulfur, and phenolic oxygen from the Schiff base ligand, and oxygen from the coordinated water, respectively. The pyrolysis reactions in the thermal decomposition process of the complex, the experimental, and calculated percentage mass loss were also given. The Ni(II) complex belonged to nanocrystalline metal complex, and the average size of the nanorod complex was about 30 nm × 150 nm. The antibacterial activities were screened for the Schiff base ligand and the Ni(II) nanorod complex against four bacteria:Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli,Bacillus subtilis, andStaphylococcus epidermidis. Both the ligand of CH2(H2sal-sbdt)2and the Ni(II) complex had the most intense antibacterial activities againstEscherichia coli.

Mn(II) and Co(II) complexes of an ionic liquid-based Schiff base, 1-{2-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)ethyl}-3-methylimidazolium bromide, were synthesized and characterized by various analytical and spectroscopic methods such as elemental analysis, UV-Visible, FT-IR, 1H NMR, ESI-MS and magnetic susceptibility measurement. These studies indicated tetrahedral geometry for the complexes. The Schiff base ligand and its complexes were tested for in vitro antibacterial activities to assess their inhibiting potentials against Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus sp.

A new centrosymmetric trinuclear Zn(II) complex [Zn3L2(CH3COO)4] (1) has been synthesized by the reaction of Zn(CH3COO)2 · 2H2O with a tridentate N,N,O-donor Schiff base ligand HL [C5H4NC(CH3)=NC6H4(OH)] and systematically characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV/Vis and thermal methods. Single crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that three Zn(II) centers are in two different coordination environments. Two terminal Zn(II) centers adopt a distorted squarepyramidal geometry leaving the central Zn(II) in a distorted octahedral environment. Two adjacent metal centers are connected through single μ2-phenolato as well as double μ-acetato-O,O´ syn-syn bridges. Fluorescence properties of the complex as compared to the ligand indicate that the former can serve as a potential photoactive material.

Synthesis of zinc(II)/cadmium(II)/mercury(II) thiocyanate and azide complexes of a new bidentate Schiff-base ligand (L) with general formula of MLX2(M = Zn(II), Cd(II), and Hg(II)) in ethanol solution at room temperature is reported. The ligand and metal complexes were characterized by using ultraviolet-visible (UV-visible), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR),1H- and13C-NMR spectroscopy and physical characterization, CHN analysis, and molar conductivity.1H- and13C-NMR spectra have been studied in DMSO-d6. The reasonable shifts of FT-IR and NMR spectral signals of the complexes with respect to the free ligand confirm well coordination of Schiff-base ligand and anions in an inner sphere coordination space. The conductivity measurements as well as spectral data indicated that the complexes are nonelectrolyte. Theoretical optimization on the structure of ligand and its complexes was performed at the Becke’s three-parameter hybrid functional (B3) with the nonlocal correlation of Lee-Yang-Parr (LYP) level of theory with double-zeta valence (LANL2DZ) basis set using GAUSSIAN 03 suite of program, and then some theoretical structural parameters such as bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles were obtained. Finally, electrochemical behavior of ligand and its complexes was investigated. Cyclic voltammograms of metal complexes showed considerable changes with respect to free ligand.

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).

A Schiff base ligand L was synthesized by condensation of 1,2-diaminoethane with creatinine. The reaction of the ligand with metal chloride salt gives Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes. The synthesized ligand and its metal complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR, UV?Vis, conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements as well as thermal analyses. Based on spectral data, tetrahedral geometries have been proposed for the Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes. The molar conductivity data show that the complexes are non-electrolytic in nature. In DFT studies, the geometry of the Schiff base ligand and its Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes were fully optimized using the B3LYP functional together with 6-31g(d,p) and LANL2DZ basis sets. The ligand and its metal complexes were tested against four bacterial species and two fungal species. The results revealed that the metal complexes are more potent against the microbes than the parent ligand.

A new series of Mn (II), Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II), and Zn (II) complexes of the Schiff base ligand, 4-chloro-2-{(E)-[(4-fluorophenyl)imino]methyl}phenol (C13H9ClFNO), was synthesized in a methanolic medium. The Schiff base was derived from the condensation reaction of 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 4-fluoroaniline at room temperature. Elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis, and NMR spectral data, molar conductance measurements, and melting points were used to characterize the Schiff base and the metal complexes. From the elemental analysis data, the metal complexes formed had the general formulae [M(L)2(H2O)2], where L = Schiff base ligand (C13H9ClFNO) and M = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn. On the basis of FT-IR, electronic spectra, and NMR data, “O” and “N” donor atoms of the Schiff base ligand participated in coordination with the metal (II) ions, and thus, a six coordinated octahedral geometry for all these complexes was proposed. Molar conductance studies on the complexes indicated they were nonelectrolytic in nature. The Schiff base ligand and its metal (II) complexes were tested in vitro to evaluate their bactericidal activity against Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus typhi) using the disc diffusion method. The antibacterial evaluation results revealed that the metal (II) complexes exhibited higher antibacterial activity than the free Schiff base ligand.

We report here the synthesis, characterization, and antibacterial evaluation of transition metal complexes of Ni, Cu, Co, Mn, Zn, and Cd (6a–f), using a Schiff base ligand (5) derived from naproxen (an anti-inflammatory drug) and 5-bromosalicylaldehyde by a series of reactions. The ligand and the synthesized complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Visible, FTIR, and XRD techniques. The ligand 5 behaves as a bidentate donor and coordinates with metals in square planar or tetrahedral fashion. In order to evaluate its bioactivity profile, we screened the Schiff base ligand and its metal complexes (6a–f) against different species of bacteria and the complexes were found to exhibit significant antibacterial activity. The complexes showed more potency against Bacillus subtilis as compared to the other species. Moreover, we modeled these complexes’ binding affinity against COX1 protein using computational docking.
