  • Title: Copper(II) complexes of coumarin-derived Schiff bases and their anti-Candida activity.
    Author: Creaven BS, Devereux M, Karcz D, Kellett A, McCann M, Noble A, Walsh M.
    Journal: J Inorg Biochem; 2009 Sep; 103(9):1196-203. PubMed ID: 19631386.
    Abstract:
    The condensation of 7-amino-4-methyl-coumarin (1) with a number of substituted salicylaldehydes yielded a series of Schiff bases (2a-2k) in good yields. Subsequent reaction of these ligands with copper(II) acetate yielded Cu(II) complexes (3a-3k) and some were characterised using X-ray crystallography. All of the free ligands and their metal complexes were tested for their anti-Candida activity. A number of the ligands and complexes exhibited anti-Candida activity comparable to that of the commercially available antifungal drugs, ketoconazole and Amphotericin B.
