  • Title: 2-Acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones. 4. Complexes with transition metals as antimalarial and antileukemic agents.
    Author: Scovill JP, Klayman DL, Franchino CF.
    Journal: J Med Chem; 1982 Oct; 25(10):1261-4. PubMed ID: 6754934.
    Abstract:
    Reaction of the 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones, 3-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonane-3-thiocarboxylic acid 2-[1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene]hydrazide (IIIa), its selenium analogue (IIIb), 1H-hexahydroazepine-1-thiocarboxylic acid 2-[1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene]hydrazide (IV), and 1H-octahydroazocine-1-thiocarboxylic acid 2-[1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene]hydrazide (V) with Cu(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), and Mn(II) salts gave crystalline complexes. Relative to the free ligands, these complexes show reduced antimalarial activity in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei; however, antileukemic properties are enhanced by coordination with the above-mentioned metals.
