Synthesis and anti-bacterial activities of some novel Schiff bases derived from aminophenazone

A series of 1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one-containing Schiff bases were synthesized, characterized and screened for their antibacterial activities. The structures of the synthesized compounds were established by spectroscopic (FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS) and elemental analyses. The anti-bacterial activities (with MIC values) of compounds were evaluated. The anti-bacterial screening results reveal that among the six compounds screened, four compounds showed moderate to good anti-bacterial activity. Among the tested compounds, the most effective compounds against four bacterial strains, viz. Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium and Streptococcus pyogenes, are [(2-chlorobenzylidene)amino]-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyrazol-3-one (4) and [(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4-ylimino)methyl]benzonitrile (5) with MIC values of 6.25 μg/mL.

Synthesis,structural characterization,antimicrobial, DNA-binding,and photo-induced DNA cleavage activity of some bio-sensitive Schiff base copper(II) complexes

Schiff base mixed-ligand copper complexes [CuL¹(phen)Cl₂], [CuL¹(bipy)Cl₂], [Cu(L¹)₂Cl₂], [Cu(L²)₂Cl₂], [CuL²(bipy)Cl₂], and [CuL²(phen)Cl₂] (where L^1?=?4-[3,4-dimethoxy-benzylidene]-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-pyrazole-3-one; L^2?=?4-[3-hydroxy-4-nitro-benzylidene]-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-pyrazole-3-one; phen?=?1,10-phenanthroline; and bipy?=?2,2′-bipyridine) have been synthesized and characterized. Their DNA-binding properties have been studied by electronic absorption spectra, viscosity, and electrochemical measurements. The absorption spectral and viscosity results suggest that the copper(II) complexes bind to DNA via partial intercalation. The addition of DNA resulting in the decrease of the peak current of the copper(II) complexes indicates their interaction. Interaction between the complexes and DNA has also been investigated by submarine gel electrophoresis. The copper complexes cleave supercoiled pUC19 DNA to nicked and linear forms through hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen in the presence of 3-mercaptopropionic acid as the reducing agent. These copper complexes promote the photocleavage of pUC19 DNA under irradiation at 360?nm. Mechanistic study reveals that singlet oxygen is likely to be the reactive species responsible for the cleavage of plasmid DNA by the synthesized complexes. The in vitro antimicrobial study indicates that the metal chelates have higher activity against the bacterial and fungal strains than the free ligands.

Catechol oxidation: activity studies using electron-rich nitrogen-based ligands

We have studied the oxidation of catechol to o-quinone with atmospheric dioxygen at ambient conditions by in situ generated copper (II) complexes of five electron-rich nitrogen ligands: (3,5-dimethyl-pyrazol-1-yl)-methanol L1; 3-benzylamino-propionitrile L2; 3-[benzyl-(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazol-1-ylmethyl)-amino]-propionitrile L3; {3-[(2-cyano-ethyl)-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-ylmethyl)-amino]-propyl}-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-ylmethyl)-amino]-propionitrile L4 and 3-[{2-[(2-cyano-ethyl)-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-ylmethyl)-amino]-ethyl}-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-ylmethyl)-amino]-propionitrile L5. We found that all complexes catalyze the oxidation reaction with different rates depending on three parameters: the nature of the ligand, the nature of ion salts, and the concentration of the complex. The combination of L3(CuSO₄) gave the highest rate of this activity about 8.71 μmol¹/L¹/min¹.     

Antioxidant and Biochemical Activities of Mixed Ligand Complexes

Novel 4-aminoantipyrine based mixed ligand metal complexes with the Schiff bases ofL¹(L¹-4(furanylmethyleneamino)-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-one and L²/ L³/ L⁴are 2-(2-chlorobenzylideneamino)phenol, 2-(3-chlorobenzylideneamino)phenol, 2-(4-chlorobenzylideneamino)phenol were synthesized. The structures of the mixed ligand complexes were established by analytical and spectral techniques. They were screened for in vitro antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi by disc diffusion method. The interaction of metal complexes with CT-DNA was investigated by UV–vis, cyclic voltammetry, viscosity and thermal denaturation studies.DNA interaction studies suggest that metal complex binds to calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) through intercalation mode. Superoxide dismutase activity of these complexes has also been studied. The free ligands and their metal complexes have been tested for in vitro antioxidant activity by the reduction of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH).The antioxidant activities of the complexes were studied and compared with the activity of ascorbic acid. Cu(II) complex showed superior antioxidant activity than other complexes. The solvatochromic behaviour of complexes was also performed in various solvents.

The Schiff bases, 3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarbothioamide (L¹H), 3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarboxamide (L²H), 5,6-dimethyl-3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarbothioamide (L³H), and 5,6-dimethyl-3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarboxamide (L⁴H), have been synthesized by the condensation of ¹ H-indol-2,3-dione and 5,6-dimethyl-1H-indol-2,3-dione with the corresponding hydrazinecarbothioamide and hydrazinecarboxamide, respectively. The complexes of oxovanadium and ligands have been characterized by elemental analyses, melting points, conductance measurements, molecular weight determinations, and IR, ¹H NMR and UV spectral studies. These studies showed that the ligands coordinated to the oxovanadium in a monobasic bidentate fashion through oxygen or sulfur and the nitrogen donor system. Thus, penta-and hexacoordinated environment around the vanadium atom has been proposed. All the complexes and their parent organic moieties have been screened for their biological activity on several pathogenic fungi and bacteria and were found to possess appreciable fungicidal and bactericidal properties. The article was submitted by the authors in English.     

The Difference in the Behaviour of Hydrazine and p-Substituted Phenylhydrazines on Various 4-(3-Aryl-3-Oxopropenyl) Antipyrines

A series of novel 4-(3-aryl-4,5-dihydro-lH-pyrazol-5-yl)-l, 5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-lH-pyrazol-3(2H)-oncs (III) were synthesized. Thus, the key intermediates, 4-(3-aryl-3-oxopropenyl-1,5- dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3(2H)-ones (II) were cyclized with hydrazine hydrate containing a few drops of ethanol gave the desired pyrazoline derivatives (III), which can be acetylated to afford the target N-acetyl derivatives (IV). On the other hand, the same reaction condition using p-substituted phenylhydrazines, the starting key intermediates (II) were recovered unchanged. The use of glacial acetic acid instead of ethanol, lead to a new series of 1,3-diarylpyrazoles (VI) by a different pathway. The structure of the newly synthesized compounds was elucidated by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H-NMR and mass spectra.
