Polymer complexes. LXXV. Characterization of quinoline polymer complexes as potential bio-active and anti-corrosion agents

The Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺ and UO₂²⁺ polymer complexes of 5-(2,3-dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazol-5-one azo)-8-hydroxyquinoline (HL) ligand were prepared and characterized. Elemental analyses, IR spectra, X-ray diffraction analysis and thermal analysis studies have been used to confirm the structure of the prepared polymer complexes. The chemical structure of metal chelates commensurate that the ligand acts as a neutral bis(bidentate) by through four sites of coordination (azo dye nitrogen, carbonyl oxygen, phenolic oxygen and hetero nitrogen from pyridine ring). The molecular and electronic structures of the hydrogen bond conformers of HL ligand were optimized theoretically and the quantum chemical parameters were calculated. Elemental analysis data suggested that the polymer complexes have composition of octahedral geometry for all the polymer complexes. Molecular docking of the binding between HL and the receptors of prostate cancer (PDB code 2Q7L Hormone) and the breast cancer (PDB code 1JNX Gene regulation) was studied. The interaction between HL and its polymer complexes with the calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was determined by absorption spectra. The antimicrobial activity of HL and its Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺ and UO₂²⁺ polymer complexes were investigated; only Cu(II) polymer complex (1) was specifically active against Aspergillus niger. It inhibited the fungal sporulation and distorted the fungal mycelia, which became squashed at a concentration of 150 μg/ml; transmission electron microscope (TEM) also showed a deactivation of autophagy in the treated A. niger cells via accumulation of autophagic bodies in vacuoles. The inhibition process of the prepared ligand (HL) against the corrosion of carbon steel in 2 M HCl solution was determined by various methods (weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) techniques) are found to be in reasonable agreement. The mechanism of inhibition in presence of HL in carbon steel corrosion obeys Friendlish adsorption isotherm.

Synthesis and spectroscopical study of rhodanine derivative using DFT approaches

The optimized molecular structure, vibrational frequencies, corresponding vibrational assignments of (E)-5-benzylidene-2-thioxothiazolidine-4-one (E5BTTO) have been investigated experimentally and theoretically based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) approach. The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of E5BTTO were recorded in solid phase. Theoretical calculations were performed at the DFT level using the Gaussian 03 program. The experimental bands were assigned and characterized on the basis of the scaled theoretical wavenumber by their Total Energy Distribution (TED). The results of the calculation were applied to simulate infrared and raman spectra of the title compound which showed good agreement with the observed spectra. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occur within the molecule. Stability arising from hyperconjugative interactions leading to its NLO activity and charge delocalization were analyzed using Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis.

Supramolecular spectroscopic and thermal studies of azodye complexes

A series of heterocyclic ligand of copper(II) complexes have been synthesized by the reaction of copper(II) acetate with 5-(4'-derivatives phenylazo)-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one (HLn) yields 1:1 and 1:2 (M:L) complexes depending on the reaction conditions. The elemental analysis, spectral (IR and ESR), conductance, magnetic measurements, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) are used to characterize the isolated complexes. It is found that the change of substituent affects the thermal properties of azodye rhodanine derivatives and their Cu(II) complexes. The molecular and electronic structures of the investigated compounds (HLn) were also studied using quantum chemical calculations. According to intramolecular hydrogen bond leads to increasing of the complexes stability. The data revealed that the coordination geometry around Cu(II) in all complexes (1-4) exhibit a trans square planar by NO monobasic bidentate and the two monobasic bidentate in octahedral complexes (5-7). Electronic, magnetic data and ESR spectra proposed the square planar structure for all complexes (1-4) under investigation. The value of covalency factor [Formula: see text] and orbital reduction factor K accounts for the covalent nature of the complexes. The activation thermodynamic parameters, such as activation energy (Ea), enthalpy (ΔH(*)), entropy (ΔS(*)), and Gibbs free energy change of the decomposition (ΔG(*)) are calculated using Coats-Redfern and Horowitz-Metzger methods.

Supramolecular spectral studies on metal-ligand bonding of novel quinoline azodyes

A series of novel bidentate azodye quinoline ligands were synthesized with various p-aromatic amines like p-(OCH3, CH3, H, Cl and NO2). All ligands and their complexes have been characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, IR, (1)H and (13)C NMR data and spectroscopic studies. IR and (1)H NMR studies reveal that the ligands (HLn) exists in the tautomeric azo/hydrazo form in both states with intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The ligands obtained contain NN and phenolic functional groups in different positions with respect to the quinoline group. IR spectra show that the azo compounds (HLn) act as monobasic bidentate ligand by coordinating via the azodye (NN) and oxygen atom of the phenolic group. The ESR (g|| and g ) and bonding α(2) parameters of the copper ion were greatly affected by substituting several groups position of ring of quinoline and p-aromatic ring. The ESR spectra of copper complexes in powder form show a broad signal with values in order g|| >g > ge > 2.0023. The value of covalency factor β and orbital reduction factor K accounts for the covalent nature of the complexes. All complexes possessed an octahedral and square planar geometry. The thermal properties of the complexes were investigated using TGA and DSC. It is found that the change of substituent affects the thermal properties of complexes.

Synthesis and characterization of Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes of a number of sulfadrug azodyes and their application for wastewater treatment

The azodye ligand (HL(1)) was synthesized from the coupling of sulfaguanidine diazonium salt with 2,4-dihydroxy-benzaldehyde while the two ligands, HL(2) and HL(3), were prepared by the coupling of sulfadiazine diazonium salt with salicylaldehyde (HL(2)) and 2,4-dihydroxy-benzaldehyde (HL(3)). The prepared ligands were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, (1)H NMR and mass spectra. Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes of the prepared ligands have been synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques like IR, UV-Visible as well as magnetic and thermal (TG and DTA) measurements. It was found that all the ligands behave as a monobasic bidentate which coordinated to the metal center through the azo nitrogen and α-hydroxy oxygen atoms in the case of HL(1) and HL(3). HL(2) coordinated to the metal center through sulfonamide oxygen and pyrimidine nitrogen. The applications of the prepared complexes in the oxidative degradation of indigo carmine dye exhibited good catalytic activity in the presence of H2O2 as an oxidant. The reactions followed first-order kinetics and the rate constants were determined. The degradation reaction involved the catalytic action of the azo-dye complexes toward H2O2 decomposition, which can lead to the generation of HO radicals as a highly efficient oxidant attacking the target dye. The detailed kinetic studies and the mechanism of these catalytic reactions are under consideration in our group.

Polymer complexes. LVI. Supramolecular architectures consolidated by hydrogen bonding and π-π interaction

The amidation of aliphatic amine with acryloyl chloride in dry benzene as a solvent has been performed. Moreover, the polymer complexes have been prepared and structurally characterized by analyses, molar conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility measurements, spectral techniques like IR, UV, NMR, ESR and thermal methods. Acryloyl hydrazine (AH) has been shown to behave as a bidentate ligand via its nitrogen (NH(2) of hydrazine group) and C-O/C=O (acryloyl group) in polymer complexes, all of which exhibit supramolecular architectures assembled through weak interaction including hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking .The magnetic and spectral data indicate a square planar geometry for Cu(2+) complexes and an octahedral geometry for Co(II) and UO(2)(II). The ESR spectral data of the Cu(II) complexes showed that the metal-ligand bonds have considerable covalent character. The thermal stability was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed that the polymer complexes are more stable than the homopolymer.

Structural and characterization of novel copper(II) azodye complexes

The synthetic methods of novel Cu(II) and adduct complexes, with selective azodyes containing nitrogen and oxygen donor ligands have been developed, characterized and presented. The prepared complexes fall into the stoichiometric formulae of [Cu(L(n))(2)](A) and [Cu(L(n))(2)(Py)(2)](B), where two types of complexes were expected and described. In type [(A) (1:2)] the chelate rings are six-membered/four coordinate, whereas in type [(B) (1:2:2)] they are six-membered/six coordinate. The important bands in the IR spectra and main (1)H NMR signals are tentatively assigned and discussed in relation to the predicted assembly of the molecular structure. The IR data of the azodye ligands suggested the existing of a bidentate binding involving azodye nitrogen and C-O oxygen atom of enolic group. They also showed the presence of Py coordinating with the metal ion. The coordination geometries and electronic structures are determined from the framework of the proposed modeling of the formed novel complexes. The complexes (1-5) exist in trans-isomeric [N,O] solid form, while adduct complexes (6-10) exist in trans isomeric (Py) form. The square planar/octahedral coordination geometry of Cu(II)/adduct is made up of an N-atom of azodye, the deprotonated enolic O-atom and two Py. The azo group was involved in chelation for all the prepared complexes. ESR spectra show the simultaneous presence of a planar trans and a nearly planar cis isomers in the 1:2 ratio for all N,O complexes [Cu(L(n))(2)]. The ligands in the dimmer are stacked over one another. In the solid state of azo-rhodanine, the dimmers have inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Interactions between the ligands and Cu(II) are also discussed.

D.C. electrical conductivity and conduction mechanism of some azo sulfonyl quinoline ligands and uranyl complexes

Supramolecular coordination of dioxouranium(VI) heterochelates 5-sulphono-7-(4'-X phenylazo)-8-hydroxyquinoline HL(n) (n=1, X=CH(3); n=2, X=H; n=3, X=Cl; n=4, X=NO(2)) have been prepared and characterized with various physico-chemical techniques. The infrared spectral studies showed a monobasic bidentate behavior with the oxygen and azonitrogen donor system. The temperature dependence of the D.C. electrical conductivity of HL(n) ligands and their uranyl complexes has been studied in the temperature range 305-415 K. The thermal activation energies E(a) for HL(n) compounds were found to be in the range 0.44-0.9 eV depending on the nature of the substituent X. The complexation process decreased E(a) values to the range 0.043-045 eV. The electrical conduction mechanism has been investigated for all samples under investigation. It was found to obey the variable range hopping mechanism (VRH).

Polymer complexes. LVIII. Structures of supramolecular assemblies of vanadium with chelating groups

Oxovanadium(IV) polymer complexes of formulation {[(VO)L](2)}(n) (1) and [(VO)LB](n) (2-4), where H(2)L is tridentate and dianionic ligand (allylazorhodanine) and B is planar heterocyclic and aliphatic base have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H NMR, electronic spin resonance spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductance and thermal studies. The molecular structure shows the presence of a vanadyl group in six-coordinate VNO(3)/VN(3)O(3) coordination geometry. The N,N-donor heterocyclic and aliphatic bas displays a chelating mode of binding with an N-donor site trans to the vanadyl oxo-group. In all polymeric complexes (1-4) the ligand coordinates through oxygen of phenolic/enolic and azodye nitrogen. The molar conductivity data show them to be non-electrolytes. All the polymer complexes are ESR active due to the presence of an unpaired electron. The calculated bonding parameters indicate that in-plane σ bonding is more covalent than in-plane π bonding. From the electronic, magnetic and ESR spectral data suggest that all the oxovanadium(IV) polymer complexes have distorted octahedral geometry. The thermal decomposition process of the polymeric complexes involves three decomposition steps.

Polymer complexes: XLXII-interplay of coordination π-π stacking and hydrogen bonding in supramolecular assembly of [sulpha drug derivatives-N,S:N,O] complexes

A novel series of nickel(II) polymer complexes of 5-sulphadiazineazo-3-phenylamino-2-thio-4-thiazolidinone (HL₁), 5-sulphamethazine-3-phenylamino-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HL₂), 5-sulphamethoxazole-3-phenylamino-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HL₃), 5-sulphacetamide-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HL₄) and 5-sulphaguanidine-3-phenylamino-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HL₅) were prepared and characterized. IR spectra show that HL(n) (n=1-5) is coordinated to the metal ion in a neutral tetradentate manner with NSNO donor sites of NH (hydrazone's), NH (3-phenylamine), carbonyl group and Ph-NH. The title [Ni₃(HL(n))₂(μ-OAc)₂(OAc)₄](n) consists of three Ni(II) atoms linked by interchain π-π interaction are observed between aromatic rings of two ligands (HL(n)) which are further doubly bridged two adjacent nickel atoms by acetate group. The geometrical structures of these complexes are found to be octahedral. The nature of bonding and the stereochemistry of the complexes have been deduced from elemental analyses, thermal, infrared, ¹H NMR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. The richness of electronic spectral in these complexes is also supporting evidence for the trinuclearity of the Ni(II) polymer complexes.

Polymer complexes. LIII. Supramolecular coordination modes and structural of novel sulphadrug complexes

Novel polymer complexes of copper(II), palladium(II), platinum(II) and cadmium(II) containing homopolymer [4-acrylamido benzene sulphonyl guanidine; (HL)] and various anions (SO₄²⁻, CH₃COO⁻, NO₃⁻, Br⁻ or Cl⁻) have been designed and carried out. Their structures were investigated by elemental analyses, spectral (IR, UV-vis, ¹H NMR and ESR) and magnetic moments. The modes of interactions between the ligand and the metals were discussed, where oxygen (of O=S=O group) and nitrogen atom [of imino nitrogen (NH/N) of the guanidine group] are involved in chelation. The homopolymer shows two types of coordination behaviour. In mononuclear polymer complexes 4 and 6-10, it acts as a neutral bidentate ligand chelated through the NH and O atoms, whereas in the polymer complexes 1-3, 5 and 11, monobasic bidentate ligand is coordinated through the -N and -O atoms. The poly-chelates are of 1:1/1:2 (metal-homopolymer) stoichiometry and exhibit four coordination. On the basis of electronic spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurement square planar geometry has been proposed. The ESR spectral data provided information about their structure on the basis Hamiltonian parameters and degree of covalency. From the electron paramagnetic resonance and spectral data, the orbital reduction factors were calculated.
