Electronic spectra support octahedral geometry around Co^II. The [Co(L₁)-(H₂O)₂] · 2H₂O complex has the maximum activation energy and [Co(L₃)(H₂O)₂] complex has the minimum activation energy. The order of stability constants of the Co^II complexes with various ligands is due to their -donor abilities.

Co(II) complexes (1‐4) were prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, infrared spectra, spectral studies, magnetic susceptibility measurements, X‐ray diffraction analysis and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The X‐ray diffraction patterns of Co(II) complexes were observed many peaks which indicate the polycrystalline nature.

Synthesis,structural analysis,and thermal and spectroscopic studies of methylmalonate-containing zinc(II) complexes

The synthesis, crystal structure, thermal analysis and spectroscopic studies of five zinc(II) complexes of formulae [Zn(Memal)(H₂O)]_n (1) and [Zn₂(L)(Memal)₂(H₂O)₂]_n (2-5) [H₂Memal = methylmalonic acid, and L = 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy) (2), 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpe) (3), 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (bpa) (4) and 4,4′-azobispyridine (azpy) (5)] are presented here. The crystal structure of 1 is a three-dimensional arrangement of zinc(II) cations interconnected by methylmalonate groups adopting the μ₃-κ²O:κO’:κO”:κO”’ coordination mode to afford a rare (10,3)-d utp-network. The structures of the compounds 2-5 are also three-dimensional and they consist of corrugated square layers of methylmalonate-bridged zinc(II) ions which are pillared by bis-monodentate 4,4′-bpy (2), bpe (3), bpa (4) and azpy (5) ligands. The Memal ligand in 2-5 adopts the μ₃-κO:κO′:κO′′:κO′′′ coordination mode. Each zinc(II) ion in 1-5 is six-coordinated with five (1)/four (2-5) methylmalonate-oxygen atoms, a water molecule (1-5) and a nitrogen atom from a L ligand (2-5) building distorted octahedral environments. The rod-like L co-ligands in 2-5 appear as useful tools to control the interlayer metal-metal separation, which covers the range 8.4311(5) Å (2) – 9.644(3) Å (5). The influence of the co-ligand on the fluorescence properties of this series of compounds has been analyzed and discussed by steady-state and time resolved spectroscopy on all five compounds in the solid state.

Three dinuclear copper(II) complexes with the anti-inflammatory drug Fenoprofen [Hfen, 2-(3-phenoxyphenyl)propionic acid] and nitrogen donors of general formula [Cu₂(fen)₄(L)] _n were prepared from [Cu₂(fen)₄(dmf)₂]·2H₂O (1) [dmf?=?N,N′-dimethylformamide; L?=?4,4′-bipyridine (2), pyrazine (3), and 2,5-dimethylpyrazine (4)].

The pyrimidine bases easily substitute chloro ligands as a neutral monodentate ligand form. The exocyclic oxygen atoms are the probable binding sites rather than ring or exocyclic nitrogen atoms. trans Square planar structures were proposed in all cases.     

Cobalt(II) complexes of various thiosemicarbazones of 4-aminoantipyrine: syntheses,spectral, thermal and antimicrobial studies

An interesting series of cobalt(II) complexes of the new ligands: 4[N-(benzalidene)amino]antipyrinethiosemicarbazone (BAAPTS), 4[N-(2′-hydroxy-benzalidene)amino]antipyrinethiosemicarbazone (HBAAPTS) and 4[N-(2′-hydroxy-1′-naphthalidene)amino]antipyrinethiosemicarbazone (HNAAPTS) were synthesized by reaction with Co(II) salts in ethanol. The general stoichiometry of the complexes was found to be [CoX₂(H₂O)(L)] and [Co(L)₂](ClO₄)₂, where X = Cl, NO₃, NCS or CH₃COO and L = BAAPTS, HBAAPTS or HNAAPTS. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity measurement, molecular weight determination, magnetic moments at room temperature, infrared and electronic spectra. All the thiosemicarbazones behave as neutral tridentate (N, N, S) donor ligands. The conductivity measurements in PhNO₂ solution indicated that the chloro, nitrato, thiocyanato and acetate complexes are essentially non-electrolytes, while the perchlorate complexes are 1:2 electrolytes. Thermogravimetric studies were performed for some representative complexes and the decomposition mechanism proposed. Antibacterial and antifungal properties of the ligands and their cobalt(II) complexes have also been examined and it has been observed that the complexes are more potent bactericides than the ligand.

The complexes have been characterized by analysis, IR and UV-visible spectroscopy and electrospray mass spectrometry. The UV-visible spectra have been analysed and the low 10Dq and large B values, are consistent with weak binding of the soft selenium ligands to the hard Cr^III. Chromium K-edge EXAFS data has been recorded and analysed for the chromium chloride complexes to produce Cr---Se and Cr---Cl distances, which provide further strong evidence for weak Cr^III-selenoether interactions.     

cis-bis(Saccharinato)cobalt(II) and -zinc(II) complexes with 2-dimethylaminoethanol: syntheses,crystal structures,spectroscopic and thermal studies

2-Dimethylaminoethanol (dmea) reacted with tetraaqua-bis(saccharinato)cobalt(II) and -zinc(II) in n-butanol to yield the new complexes cis-[Co(sac)₂(dmea)₂] (1), and cis-[Zn(sac)₂(dmea)₂] (2) (sac?=?saccharinate). The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy, DTA-TG and X-ray crystallography. Both complexes are isomorphous and crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c. The cobalt(II) and zinc(II) ions are coordinated by two neutral dmea ligands and two sac anions in a distorted octahedral environment. The dmea ligand acts as a bidentate N, O donor through the amine N and hydroxyl O atoms, while the sac ligand exhibits non-equivalent coordination, behaving as an ambidentate ligand; one coordinates to the metal via the carbonyl oxygen atom, while the other is N-bonded. The packing of the molecules in the crystals of both complexes is achieved by aromatic π(sac)–π(sac) stacking interactions, C–H?·?π interactions and weak intermolecular C–H?·?O hydrogen bonds involving the methyl groups of dmea and the sulfonyl oxygen atoms of the sac ligands. IR and UV spectra and thermal analysis are in agreement with the crystal structures.

The monomer 3‐allyl‐5‐(phenylazo)‐2‐thioxothiazolidine‐4‐one (HL) was prepared by the reaction of allyl rhodanine with aniline through diazo‐coupling reaction. Reaction of HL with Ni(II) or Co(II) salts gave polymer complexes ( 1 – 8 ) with general stoichiometries [M(HL)(Cl)₂(OH₂)₂]_n, [M(HL)(O₂SO₂)(OH₂)₂]_n, [M(L)(O₂NO)(H₂O)₂]_n and [M(L)(O₂CCH₃)(H₂O)₂]_n (where M = Ni(II) or Co(II)). The structures of the polymer complexes were identified using elemental analysis, infrared and electronic spectra, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, X‐ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. The interaction between the polymer complexes and calf thymus DNA showed a hypochromism effect. HL and its polymer complexes were tested against bacterial and fungal species. Co(II) polymer complex 2 is the most effective against Klebsiella pneumoniae and is more active than penicillin. The results showed that Ni(II) polymer complex 5 is a good antibacterial agent against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Molecular docking was used to predict the binding between the monomer with the receptors of prostate cancer (PDB code: 2Q7L Hormone) and breast cancer (PDB code: 1JNX Gene regulation). Coats–Redfern and Horowitz–Metzger methods were applied for calculating the thermodynamic parameters of HL and its polymer complexes. The thermal activation energy of decomposition for HL is higher than that for the polymer complexes.
