Metal Chelates of Sulfafurazole Azo Dye Derivative: Synthesis, Structure Affirmation, Antimicrobial, Antitumor, DNA Binding, and Molecular Docking Simulation

A series of divalent and one trivalent metal chelates of the azo ligand resulting from coupling of sulfafurazole diazonium chloride with resorcinol have been designed and synthesized. Structure investigation of the isolated chelates have been achieved by applying spectroscopic and analytical tools which collaborated to assure the formation of the metal chelates in the molar ratios of 1L: 1M for Ni(II), Co(II), and Fe(III) chelates, where Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes formed in the ratio 2L : 1M. The geometrical arrangement around the metal canters was concluded from UV-Vis spectra to be octahedral for all metal chelates. The attachment of the ligand to the metal ions took place through the azo group nitrogen and o-hydroxyl oxygen through proton displacement leading to the ligand being in monobasic bidentate binding mode. Antimicrobial and antitumor activities of the interested compounds have been evaluated against alternative microorganisms and cancer cells, respectively, in a trial to investigate their extent of activity in addition to docking studies. The mode of interaction of the compounds with SS-DNA has been examined by UV-Vis spectra and viscosity studies.

Changes in the proportions of an active pharmaceutical through cocrystals

In this study, the modulation of amounts sulfathiazolium cations in different 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylates is demonstrated. An uncommon monoionic sulfathiazolium zinc 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate (1:1 electrolyte) complex was characterized. Conventional sulfathiazolium zinc-bis-2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate dianionic complexes (2:1 electrolyte) were formed when hydroxyaromatic compounds such as 1,3-dihydroxybenzene or 3-nitrophenol were used as guest components. Thus, with the aid of the hydroxyaromatic molecules the zinc-bis-2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate complexes were stabilized with the relatively large sized sulfathiazolium cations. It was a consequence of domain expansion by the phenolic compounds. Sandwiched aromatic guests between the 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylates provided appropriate packing to accommodate the two large cations in the self-assemblies, which helped to modulate the amounts of sulfathiazole in different formulations. Antibacterial activities with E. coli DH5α have shown that the salt and the complexes have lower g/ml antibacterial activity than the parent drug.

Correlation between ionic radii of metal azodye complexes and electrical conductivity

5-(2,3-Dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazol-5-one azo)-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HL) and its metal complexes with copper(II) (1), cobalt(II) (2) and nickel(II) (3) are synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical techniques. The thermal properties of the ligand (HL) and its metal complexes (1-3) are discussed. The thermal activation energies of decomposition (Ea) of HL and its metal complexes with Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) are found to be 48.76, 36.83, 30.59 and 40.45 kJ/mol, respectively. The frequency and temperature dependence of ac conductivity, dielectric constants for HL and its complexes (1-3) are investigated in the temperature range 300-356 K and frequency range 0.1-100 kHz. Both of the ac conductivity and the values of the thermal activation energy for conduction, as well as the dielectric properties of the complexes of HL are found to depend on the nature of the metallic ions. The values of the thermal activation energies of electrical conductivity decrease with increasing the value of test frequency. The small polarons tunneling (SPT) is the dominant conduction mechanism for the ligand (HL), while for complex (2) the overlapping large tunneling model (OLPT) is the dominant conduction mechanism. The correlated barrier hopping (CBH) is the dominant conduction mechanism for both of the complexes (1) and (3).

Synthesis, characterization, DNA binding and catalytic applications of Ru(III) complexes

A new series of azodye ligands 5-chloro-3-hydroxy-4-(aryldiazenyl)pyridin-2(1H)-one (HLn) were synthesized by coupling of 5-chloro-3-hydroxypyridin-2(1H)-one with aniline and its p-derivatives. These ligands and their Ru(III) complexes of the type trans-[Ru(Ln)2(AsPh3)2]Cl were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H NMR and UV-Visible spectra as well as magnetic and thermal measurements. The molar conductance measurements proved that all the complexes are electrolytes. IR spectra show that the ligands (HLn) acts as a monobasic bidentate ligand by coordinating via the nitrogen atom of the azo group (NN) and oxygen atom of the deprotonated phenolic OH group, thereby forming a six-membered chelating ring and concomitant formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond. The molecular and electronic structures of the investigated compounds (HLn) were also studied using quantum chemical calculations. The calf thymus DNA binding activity of the ligands (HLn) and their Ru(III) complexes were studied by absorption spectra and viscosity measurements. The mechanism and the catalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol by trans-[Ru(Ln)2(AsPh3)2]Cl with hydrogen peroxide as co-oxidant were described.

Correlation between ionic radii of metals and thermal decomposition of supramolecular structure of azodye complexes

An interesting azodye heterocyclic ligand of copper(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and uranyl(II) complexes have been synthesized by the reaction of metal salts with 5-(2,3-dimethyl-1-phenylpyrazol-5-one azo)-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HL) yields 1:1 and 1:2 (M:L) complexes depending on the reaction conditions. The elemental analysis, magnetic moments, spectral (UV-Vis, IR, (1)H and (13)C NMR and ESR) and thermal studies were used to characterize the isolated complexes. The molecular structures of the ligand tautomers are optimized theoretically and the quantum chemical parameters are calculated. The IR spectra showed that the ligand (HL) act as monobasic tridentate/neutral bidentate through the (-N=N), enolic (C-O)(-) and/or oxygen keto moiety groups forming a five/six-membered structures. According to intramolecular hydrogen bond leads to increasing of the complexes stability. The molar conductivities show that all the complexes are non-electrolytes. The ESR spectra indicate that the free electron is in dxy orbital. The calculated bonding parameter indicates that in-plane σ-bonding is more covalent than in-plane π-bonding. The coordination geometry is five/six-coordinated trigonal bipyramidal for complex (1) and octahedral for complexes (2-6). The value of covalency factor β1(2) and orbital reduction factor K accounts for the covalent nature of the complexes. The activation thermodynamic parameters are calculated using Coats-Redfern and Horowitz-Metzger methods. The synthesized ligand (HL) and its Cu(II) complexes (1, 2 and 4) are screened for their biological activity against bacterial and fungal species. The ligand (HL) showed antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli. The ligand (HL) and its Cu(II) complexes (2 and 4) have very high antifungal activity against Penicillium italicum. The inhibitive action of ligand (HL), against the corrosion of C-steel in 2M HCl solution has been investigated using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

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.
