  • Title: Synthesis, physico-chemical characterization and antimicrobial activity of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes with some acyldihydrazones.

    Journal: J Enzyme Inhib Med Chem; 2008 Dec; 23(6):797-805. PubMed ID: 18615282.
    Abstract:
    Complexes of the type [M(bssdh)]Cl and [M(dspdh)]Cl, where M = Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II); Hbssdh = benzil salicylaldehyde succinic acid dihydrazone, Hdspdh = diacetyl salicylaldehyde phthalic acid dihydrazone have been synthesized and characterized with the help of elemental analyses, electrical conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements, electronic, ESR and IR spectra and X-ray diffraction studies. Magnetic moment values and electronic spectral transitions indicate a spin free octahedral structure for Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes. IR spectral studies suggest that both the ligands behave as monobasic hexadentate ligands coordinating through three > C = O, two > C = N- and a phenolate group to the metal. ESR spectra of Cu(II) complexes are axial type and suggest d(x(2)-y(2)) as the ground state. X-ray powder diffraction parameters for [Co(bssdh)]Cl and [Co(dspdh)]Cl complexes correspond to an orthorhombic crystal lattice. The ligands as well as their metal complexes show a significant antifungal and antibacterial activity against various fungi and bacteria. The metal complexes are more active than the parent ligands.
