Abstract
Novel thiophene-derived Schiff base ligand DE, where DE is (E)-N1,N1-diethyl-N2-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)ethane-1,2-diamine, and the corresponding M(II) complexes, [M(DE)X2] (M = Cu or Zn, X = Cl; M = Cd, X = Br), were prepared and structurally characterized. X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the geometry around the center of the M(II) complexes, [Zn(DE)Cl2] and [Cd(DE)Br2], could be best described as a distorted tetrahedral. In vitro antimicrobial screening of DE and its corresponding M(II) complexes, [M(DE)X2], was performed. The complexes were more potent and showed higher activities against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, fungi Candida albicans, and protozoa Leishmania major compared to the ligand. Among the studied complexes, [Cd(DE)Br2] exhibited the most promising antimicrobial activity against all the tested microbes compared to its analogs. These results were further supported by molecular docking studies. We believe that these complexes may significantly contribute to the efficient designing of metal-derived agents to treat microbial infections.

Lee J, Melchakova I, Nayab S, Kim K, Ko YH, Yoon M, Avramov P, Lee H. Synthesis and Characterization of Zinc(II), Cadmium(II), and Palladium(II) Complexes with the Thiophene-Derived Schiff Base Ligand. ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:6016-6029. [PMID: 36816644 PMCID: PMC9933481 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c08001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Zn(II), Pd(II), and Cd(II) complexes, [L TH MCl 2 ] (M = Zn, Pd; X = Br, Cl) and [L TH Cd(μ-X)X] n (X = Cl, Br; n = n, 2), supported by the (E)-N 1,N 1-dimethyl-N 2-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)ethane-1,2-diamine (L TH ) ligand are synthesized and structurally characterized. Density functional theory (DFT) electronic structure calculations and variable-temperature NMR support the presence of two conformers and a dynamic interconversion process of the minor conformer to the major one in solution. It is found that the existence of two relevant complex conformers and their respective ratios in solution depend on the central metal ions and counter ions, either Cl- or Br-. Among the two relevant conformers, a single conformer is crystallized and X-ray diffraction analysis revealed a distorted tetrahedral geometry for Zn(II) complexes, and a distorted square planar and square pyramidal geometry for Pd(II) and Cd(II) complexes, respectively. It is shown that [L TH MCl 2 ]/LiO i Pr (M = Zn, Pd) and [L TH Cd(μ-Cl)Cl] n /LiO i Pr can effectively catalyze the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) reaction of rac-lactide (rac-LA) with 94% conversion within 30 s with [L TH ZnCl 2 ]/LiO i Pr at 0 °C. Overall, hetero-enriched poly(lactic acid)s (PLAs) were provided by these catalytic systems with [L TH ZnCl 2 ]/LiO i Pr producing PLA with higher heterotactic bias (P r up to 0.74 at 0 °C).

Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Catalytic Activity of Tri-Nuclear Zn(II) Complex Based on 6-Phenylpyridine-2-carboxylic Acid and Bis(4-pyridyl)amine Ligands. BULLETIN OF CHEMICAL REACTION ENGINEERING & CATALYSIS 2022.

Abstract
A new trinuclear Zn (II) complex, [Zn3(L1)4(L2)2(CH3COO)2] (1) (HL1 = 6-phenylpyridine-2-carboxylic acid, L2 = bis(4-pyridyl)amine) has been synthesized by 6-phenylpyridine-2-carboxylic acid, NaOH, bis(4-pyridyl)amine and Zn(CH3COO)2•2H2O. The complex 1 has also been structural characterized by elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The results reveals that complex 1 is made up of three Zn(II) ions, four L1 ligands, two L2 ligands and two CH3COO- anions. In 1, both Zn1 ion and Zn1a ion are five-coordinated with two O atoms from two different L1 ligands, two N atoms from two different L1 ligands, and one N atoms from bis(4-pyridyl)amine ligand, respectively, and forms a distorted trigonal biyramid geometry. And Zn2 ion is four-coordinated with two O atoms from two different CH3COO− anions and two N atoms from two different L2 ligands, forming a distorted tetrahedral geometry. Complex 1 displays a 3D network structure by the intermolecular N−H···O hydrogen bonds. The catalytic performance for oxidation of benzyl alcohol with O2 was studied under mild reaction conditions using complex 1 as catalyst. The results demonstrated that the catalysts were very active, and the yield of benzaldehyde was 50.8% at 90 °C with THF as solvent under 0.5 MPa O2 within 3 h.
