Abstract
In the previous study, the synthesis and characterization of 4-(3-fluorophenyl)-3-thiosemicarbazide and benzaldehyde derivatives based thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) complexes were carried out to evaluate their malarial and oxidant and inflammatory inhibition abilities, demonstrating that these compounds have robust efficacy for these ailments. In the present research, to find out a combating agent against breast cancer, tuberculosis, bacterial and fungal ailments, the compounds were tested through MTT, microplate alamar blue and serial dilution protocols. ADMET and DFT investigation were analyzed against highly bioactive compounds (2, 7-10) to give a new insight about compound's reactivity, stability and drug likeness properties. Furthermore, activity results shows that the ligand (2) and its complexes demonstrate greater efficacy compared to ligand (1) and its complexes. The Cu(II) (9) and Zn(II) (10) complexes were observed as highly efficient for breast cancer (MCF-7 cell line), TB (H37Rv strain), bacterial and fungal ailments in comparison of standard drugs with 0.029 ± 0.001 μM IC50 value for (9) in anticancer activity and 0.0034 ± 0.0017 μmol/mL MIC value for (10) in anti-tuberculosis activity. In the molecular docking investigation, the various kind of binding interactions and lowest binding affinity of (9) (against 4RJ3 (-10.0 kcal/mol), 2VCJ (-7.9 kcal/mol)) and (10) (-7.8 and -8.3 kcal/mol for 5V3Y and 3PTY protein) support their bioactivity. This research highlights the pharmaceutical importance of transition metal complexes having thiosemicarbazones, presenting a significant approach for the discovery of potent anti-infectious agent.

Abstract
Nanofluids hold significant promise in diverse applications, particularly in biomedicine, where noble trimetallic nanofluids outperformed their monometallic counterparts. The composition, morphology, and size of these nanofluids play pivotal roles in their functionality. Controlled synthesis methods have garnered attention, focusing on precise morphology, content, biocompatibility, and versatile chemistry. Understanding how reaction parameters such as time, reducing agents, stabilizers, precursor concentration, temperature, and pH affect size and shape during synthesis is crucial. Trimetallic nanofluids, with their ideal composition, size, surface structure, and synergistic properties, are gaining traction in antimicrobial applications. These nanofluids were tested against seven microorganisms, demonstrating a heightened antimicrobial efficacy. Computational analyses, including molecular docking, dynamics, density functional theory (DFT), molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) analysis, and absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination, and toxicology studies (ADMET) provided insights into binding interactions, energy, reactivity, and safety profiles, affirming the antimicrobial potential of trimetallic nanofluids. These findings emphasize the importance of controlled synthesis and computational validation in harnessing the unique properties of trimetallic nanofluids for biomedical applications.

Sci Rep 2024; 14:10032. [PMID: 38693156 PMCID: PMC11063136 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-58108-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The primary objective of the present study was to produce metal complexes of H4DAP ligand (N,N'-((pyridine-2,6-diylbis(azanediyl))bis(carbonothioyl))dibenzamide) derived from 2,6-diaminopyridine and benzoyl isothiocyanate with either ML or M2L stoichiometry. There are three distinct coordination complexes obtained with the formulas [Co(H2DAP)]·H2O, [Ni2(H2DAP)Cl2(H2O)2]·H2O, and [Cu(H4DAP)Cl2]·3H2O. The confirmation of the structures of all derivatives was achieved through the utilization of several analytical techniques, including FT-IR, UV-Vis, NMR, GC-MS, PXRD, SEM, TEM analysis, and QM calculations. Aiming to analyze various noncovalent interactions, topological methods such as QTAIM, NCI, ELF, and LOL were performed. Furthermore, the capacity of metal-ligand binding was examined by fluorescence emission spectroscopy. An in vitro investigation showed that the viability of MDA-MB-231 and HepG-2 cells was lower when exposed to the manufactured Cu2+ complex, in comparison to the normal cis-platin medication. The compounds were further evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity. The Ni2+ complex has shown promising activity against all tested pathogens, comparable to the reference drugs Gentamycin and Ketoconazole. Furthermore, a computational docking investigation was conducted to further examine the orientation, interaction, and conformation of the recently created compounds on the active site of the Bcl-2 protein.

Abstract
Sulphur containing compounds possess a great deal of interest due to wide range of beneficial activities towards biotic species. This work also deals with the study of biological examination of newly synthesized sulphur containing Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes derived from (E)-4-(phenylimino)-3-((E)-1-(phenylimino)ethyl)pent-2-ene-1-thiol Schiff bases. Moreover, the DNA nuclease efficiency of the synthesized metal complexes is studied by UV absorption studies, Fluorescence studies, Viscosity and CV titrations which confirm the intercalative mode of binding. Pharmacokinetic studies and drug like activity of these compounds are screened with the help of SWISS ADME online freeware. Their morphological nature is corroborated by various spectral techniques. Optimized geometry and biologically accessible nature of the synthesized compounds are investigated by Gaussian 09 W software. Interestingly, molecular docking studies are carried out against cancer DNA and 6J10 cancer cell. Anti-inflammatory and in vitro antioxidant activities have been studied to validate the theoretical prediction. Based on these preliminary pharmacological activities, the in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo antitumor activities are examined using MCF-7, HeLa, Hep-2, HepG-2 and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cell lines. All the above examinations reveal that the nitro substituted transition metal complexes possess higher biological bustle.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Currently, we report the preparation of transition metal complexes Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) of hydrazone Schiff base ligands, which are obtained by the condensation reaction of substituted salicylaldehyde and hydrazines. The synthesized hydrazone ligands and their metal complexes were characterized by spectroscopic methods such as Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), UV-vis, nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR and C13 NMR), and mass spectrometry analyses. All of the quantum chemistry calculations were performed using DFT executed in the Gaussian 09 software package. The geometry was optimized by using the density functional theory (DFT) approximation at the B3LYP level with a basis set of 6-31G (d, p). There was excellent agreement between the FT-IR values obtained experimentally and those obtained theoretically for the test compounds. It is worth noting that none of the optimized geometries for any of the Schiff base and metal complexes had any eigenvalues that were negative, indicating that these geometries represent the true minimum feasible energy surfaces. We also analyzed the electrostatic potential of the molecule and NBO calculation at the same level of theory. Gauss View 6 was utilized for the file organization of the input data. Gauss View 6.0, Avogadro, and Chemcraft were used to determine the data. Additionally, synthesized compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative bacteria (Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus halodurans, Micrococcus luteus) and two fungal strains (Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger). These research findings have established the potential of ligands and their metal complexes as antimicrobial agents. Additionally, the compounds demonstrated promising nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, with potential applications across a wide range of contemporary technologies.
