Synthesis, Characterization and Bioactivity of New Phosphorous Containing Schiff Bases Prepared from Dithiocarbazate Derivatives and their Transition Metal Complexes
Twelve novel phosphorous containing Schiff bases derived from the four isomeric dithiocarbazates which are methyl hydrazinecrabodithioate (SMDTC), phenyl hydrazinecarbodithioate (SBDTC), 2-methylbenzyl hydrazinecarbodithioate (S2MBDTC) and 4-methylbenzyl hydrazinecarbodithioate (S4MBDTC) with 2-(diphenylphosphino) benzaldehyde (DPPB), (triphenylphosphanylidene) acetaldehyde (TPPA) and (triphenylphosphanylidene)propan-2-one (TPPP). Metal complexes of Cd(II), Co(III), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) were synthesized from these twelve Schiff bases to obtain sixty metal complexes. All these novel compounds have been successfully synthesized and characterized by various physico-chemical and spectroscopic techniques. The structures of nine Schiff bases and two transition metal complexes were successfully determined via X-ray crystallographic analysis.
Four novel Schiff bases were coordinated in their metal complexes through nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorous donor atoms (PNS tridentate ligands), while the other eight Schiff bases coordinated through nitrogen and sulfur donor atoms (NS bidentate ligands). The cobalt complexes Co(SMDPB)2 NO3. 3H2O had distorted octahedral geometry, coordinating via the triphenylphosphine phosphorous, azomethine nitrogen and thiolate sulphur atoms of the Schiff bases. The nickel complex has square planar geometry and coordinated via azomethine nitrogen and thiolate sulphur atoms of the Schiff base, while the λ5 phosphorous do not coordinate.
All the seventy two novel compounds have been evaluated for their biological activities against certain pathogenic microbial and two breast cancer cell lines, MCF-7 (human breast carcinoma cells with positive estrogen receptor) and MDA-MB231 (human breast carcinoma cells with negative estrogen receptor). The complexes were mostly antibacterial, but were less active against the fungal strains tested. The Schiff bases in this study show a weak activity except for S2MBDTPA which shows a moderate activity. Complexation of these Schiff bases with the transition metal ions will enhance and increased the activity significantly. It was also found that the complexes contain λ5 P shows more activity than λ3 P. The complexes were generally more active against the MCF-7 cell line as compared to the MDA-MB231 cell line. Most of the metal complexes exhibited higher bioactivity compared to their ligands in the complexes
Preparation, Characterization and Spectroscopic Study of New Tridentate Schiff Base and its Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) Metal Complexes
A new tridentate ligand has been synthesized derived from phenyl(pyridin-3-yl)methanone. Three coordinated metal complexes were prepared by complexation of the new ligand with Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) metal salts. The new Schiff base “benzyl -2-[phenyl(pyridin-3-yl)methylidene]hydrazinecarbodithioate” and the new metal complexes were characterized using various physico-chemical and spectroscopic techniques. From the analysis results, the expected structure to the metal complexes are octahedral in geometry for Cu(II) complex, square planner for Ni(II) and tetrahedral for Zn(II) complex. The new compounds are expected to show strong bioactivity against bacteria and cancer cells
Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Methyl 2-(1,7,7-Tri methylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yieldene)hydrazinecarbodithioate Schiff Bases Derived From Methylhydrazine carbodithioate And Their Bi(III) And Ag(II) Complexes
Novel bidentate Schiff bases having nitrogen-sulphur donor sequence was synthesized from condensation of racemate camphor, (R)-camphor and (S)-camphor with Methyl hydrazinecarbodithioate (SMDTC). Its metal complexes were also prepared through the reaction of these ligands with silver and bismuth salts. All complexes were characterized by elemental analyses and various physico-chemical techniques. These Schiff bases behaved as uninegatively charged bidentate ligands and coordinated to the metal ions via ?-nitrogen and thiolate sulphur atoms. The NS Schiff bases formed complexes of general formula, [M(NS)2] or [M(NS)2.H2O] where M is BiIII or AgI, the expected geometry is octahedral for Bi(III) complexes while Ag(I) is expected to oxidized to Ag(II) forming square planner complexes
Synthesis of palm oil-based fatty methylhydrazide
Fatty methylydrazides (FMHs) have been successfully synthesized from palm oil. Glycerol was produced as a by-product. The synthesis was carried out by reflux palm oil with methylhydrazine in hexane. FMHs have been characterized
using elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance technique. The results showed that a 6:1 molar ratio of palm oil
to methylhydrazine, a round 78 % maximum conversion of palm oil into FMHs and a 10 h reaction time are the optimum reaction conditions
Synthesis and Spectroscopic Characterization of New Ligand and Its Pd(II), Cu(II) Metal Complexes
A novel Schiff base ligand containing nitrogen and sulfur donor atoms was synthesized by condensing thioamide (TA) with imidothioic acid (IT) to form 1, 4 dithiane-2, 3-diamine (TAIT). Metal complexes of this ligand were prepared using Cu (II) chloride dihydrates and Pd (III) chloride. These complexes have been characterized using various physico-chemical and spectroscopic techniques. Based on physico-chemical and spectroscopic analyses, the structure of Cu (II) complex is expected to be octahedral, while Pd (II) complex is proposed to be square planner geometry. Schiff base and its metal complexes were expected to show strong bioactivity against microbes and cancer cells
