New Schiff base-coated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of type AuNP@L (where L: thiolated Schiff base ligand) have been synthesized and characterized using various spectroscopic techniques. The AuNPs and AuNP@L were imaged by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and were confirmed to be well-dispersed, uniformly distributed, spherical nanoparticles with an average diameter of 8–10 nm. Their potential applications for chemosensing were investigated in UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopic studies. The AuNP@L exhibited selectivity for Fe3+in an ethanol/water mixture (ratio 9 : 1 v/v). The absorption and emission spectral studies revealed a 1 : 1 binding mode for Fe3+, with binding constants of8.5×105and2.9×105 M−1, respectively.

Condensation of amine 1 with aldehyde 2 gives Schiff base, N-(4-((benzofuran-2-ylmethylene) amino)phenyl)acetamide 3. Schiff base on N-acylation with different substituted acid chlorides in the presence of triethylamine gives the corresponding benzamides, N-acetyl-N-(4-((benzofuran-2-ylmethylene)amino)phenyl)substitutedbenzamide (NABP) 5a–j. The structures of newly synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR FT-IR, and mass spectral studies. Compounds 3 and 5a–j have been screened for their antimicrobial activity using the disc diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method against the selected bacterial and fungal strain. Compounds 5a, 5e, 5g, and 5h were found to be more active against all tested strains. The antioxidant properties were evaluated by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and superoxide radical scavenging methods. Compounds 5i and 5j showed predominant antioxidant activities among the synthesized analogues. The interaction between NABP and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated using fluorescence and ultraviolet spectroscopic techniques at 298 K under imitated physiological conditions. The results revealed that NABP caused the fluorescence quenching of BSA through a static quenching procedure. The binding constants and the number of binding sites were calculated. The binding distance between the donor (BSA) and acceptor (NABP) was determined based on Forster’s theory.

CuX2·6H2O (X = Cl–, Br– or ClO4–) reacted with a Schiff base ligand 2-[(3′-N-salicylidinephenyl)benzimidazole] in 1:2 mole ratio in methanol to yield brown colored complexes of types [CuCl2L]2, [CuBr1.5L1.5]2Br and [Cu(OClO3)L2]2(ClO4)2·4H2O. The complexes were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic studies such as elemental analysis, conductivity and magnetic moment measurements, thermogravimetric analysis, IR, far-IR, electronic, ESR and mass spectral studies. IR spectral studies suggested the coordination of ligand to the central metal atom via tertiary nitrogen of benzimidazole and nitrogen of azomethine group. Based on these studies, binuclear structure was proposed for all the copper complexes. The ligand and its copper(II) complexes were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities.

The metal(II) complexes were synthesized by addition of corresponding MCl2 (M = Mn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+) with 1,2-bis(1H-pyrrol-2-ylmethylene)diazane in methanol. The ligand acts as a bidentate as confirmed from the mass, IR, UV, NMR and EPR spectral studies. The Schiff base ligand forms hexa-coordinated complexes having octahedral geometry for Mn(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes. The metal complexes showed an excellent antimicrobial activity spectrum in vitro against both Gram-negative (Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii), Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis) and human pathogenic bacteria isolates. To find the binding affinity with protein BSA kinase, for that molecular docking studies were also carried for all the four synthesized metal(II) complexes. The anticancer activity of the synthesized metal(II) complexes was also screened against the three human tumor cell lines MCF7 human breast adenocarcinoma cell line, CaSki human caucasian cervical epidermoid carcinoma and HCT116 human colon cancer cell lines. The present study showed that Zn(II) complex showed potent inhibition by the ratio of 80% as compared to the inhibition in the normal cells (L-6).

The free Schiff base ligand (HL1) is prepared by being mixed with the co-ligand 1, 10-phenanthroline (L2). The product then is reacted with metal ions: (Cr+3, Fe+3, Co+2, Ni+2, Cu+2 and Cd+2) to get new metal ion complexes. The ligand is prepared and its metal ion complexes are characterized by physic-chemical spectroscopic techniques such as: FT-IR, UV-Vis, spectra, mass spectrometer, molar conductivity, magnetic moment, metal content, chloride content and microanalysis (C.H.N) techniques. The results show the formation of the free Schiff base ligand (HL1). The fragments of the prepared free Schiff base ligand are identified by the mass spectrometer technique. All the analysis of ligand and its metal complexes are in good agreement with the theoretical values indicating the purity of Schiff base ligand and the metal complexes. From the above data, the molecular structures for all the metal complexes are proposed to be octahedral

The study describes the synthesis, characterization and biological activity of a novel Schiff base ligand and its transition metal complexes. The Schiff base ligand was obtained by a condensation reaction between 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (p-vanillin) and hydrazine hydrate using ethanol as solvent. A new series of Ni(II) and Fe(III) complexes were also derived by reaction of prepared Schiff base ligand with NiCl2 and FeCl3. Both the ligand and its metal complexes were characterized by solubility, melting point and elemental analysis. These compounds were further identified by analytical techniques, FTIR, NMR and mass spectrometry. The ligand and its transition metal complexes were also subjected to in vitro biological activities i.e. antimicrobial, antiangiogenic and DNA photo cleavage. For antimicrobial activity compounds were tested against two strains of bacteria and two strains of fungi. Different concentrations of prepared compounds were treated with fertilized chicken eggs and plasmid DNA to find out antiangiogenic and DNA photocleavage activity, respectively.
