Abstract
Copper (II) acetate reacted with 2-oxindole semicarbazone (2-Hoxsc, H1L), 3-methyl 2-oxindole semicarbazone (3-MeHoxsc, H2L) and 6-Chloro-2-oxindole semicarbazone (6-ClHoxsc, H3L) in 1:2 (M:L) molar ratio to form complexes of general formula, [Cu(L2)] (1L, 1; 2L 2; 3L 3. Stoichiometric ratio of complexes was established using UV–Vis spectroscopy. All the complexes were characterised by the CHN analysis, IR, ESR spectroscopy and Mass spectrometry. From the ESR spectrum, g values obtained (g‖ = 2.20; g⊥ = 2.05) for complex 2 confirms axial symmetry for this complex, whereas a broad isotropic signal in 1 and 3 (giso = 2.060, 1; 2.057, 3) indicates extensive exchange coupling. All the synthesized compounds (ligands and complexes) complexes were examined for their anti-tubercular activity against M. tuberculosis H37RV strain. Compounds were also tested for their anti-bacterial (B. subtilis, K. pneumonia) and antifungal (C. auris, C. albicans) activities. Biological investigations revealed that the antimicrobial activities (anti-TB, antibacterial and antifungal) of ligands get improved on complexation with Cu (II) due to formation of chelate ring, which can make the ligand a more powerful biological agent. Complex 3 has shown excellent anti-TB (MIC = 1.6 g/ml) and antibacterial (ZOI = 26 mm at 5 mg/mL) activities. Strong binding of complex 3 was observed (Kb = 24.22 × 105 M−1) with Human Serum Albumin (HSA) using fluorescence spectroscopy. Molecular modelling of complex 3 was also done with the active site of amino acid of M. tuberculosis enoyl reductase. The minimal binding energy of −10.1 kcal/mol indicated significant intermolecular interaction between M. tuberculosis enoyl reductase and complex 3 and is in well agreement with experimental data.
期刊介绍:
Polyhedron publishes original, fundamental, experimental and theoretical work of the highest quality in all the major areas of inorganic chemistry. This includes synthetic chemistry, coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry, bioinorganic chemistry, and solid-state and materials chemistry.
Papers should be significant pieces of work, and all new compounds must be appropriately characterized. The inclusion of single-crystal X-ray structural data is strongly encouraged, but papers reporting only the X-ray structure determination of a single compound will usually not be considered. Papers on solid-state or materials chemistry will be expected to have a significant molecular chemistry component (such as the synthesis and characterization of the molecular precursors and/or a systematic study of the use of different precursors or reaction conditions) or demonstrate a cutting-edge application (for example inorganic materials for energy applications). Papers dealing only with stability constants are not considered.
