Metal(II) Ion Complexes with 5‐(Pyrazin‐2‐yl)‐2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione; Synthesis,Structural Characterization,Acid‐base,and Complexing Properties in Solution

The study reports the synthesis of complexes Co(HL)Cl₂ ( 1 ), Ni(HL)Cl₂ ( 2 ), Cu(HL)Cl₂ ( 3 ), and Zn(HL)₃Cl₂ ( 4 ) with the title ligand, 5‐(pyrazin‐2‐yl)‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thione (HL), and their characterization by elemental analyses, ESI‐MS (m/z), FT‐IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy, as well as EPR in the case of the Cu^II complex. The comparative analysis of IR spectra of the metal ion complexes with HL and HL alone indicated that the metal ions in 1 , 2 , and 3 are chelated by two nitrogen atoms, N(4) of pyrazine and N(5) of triazole in the thiol tautomeric form, whereas the Zn^II ion in 4 is coordinated by the non‐protonated N(2) nitrogen atom of triazole in the thione form. pH potentiometry and UV/Vis spectroscopy were used to examine Co^II, Ni^II, and Zn^II complexes in 10/90 (v/v) DMSO/water solution, whereas the Cu^II complex was examined in 40/60 (v/v) DMSO/water solution. Monodeprotonation of the thione triazole in solution enables the formation of the L:M = 1:1 species with Co^II, Ni^II and Zn^II, the 2:1 species with Co^II and Zn^II, and the 3:1 species with Zn^II. A distorted tetrahedral arrangement of the Cu^II complex was suggested on the basis of EPR and Vis/NIR spectra.

A novel series of 16-membered binuclear complexes of octaazatetraimine ligand, [M = Mn^II, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II; X = Cl or NO₃] have been synthesized by metal template condensation reactions of o-phenylenediamine with N,N′-diacetylhydrazine in 1:1:1 molar ratio in methanol. The proposed stoichiometry and the bonding of the macrocyclic moiety to metal ions along with the overall stereochemistry have been derived from the results of elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity data and the spectral data revealed from FT-IR, , ESI mass, UV–visible studies. An octahedral geometry has been envisaged for Mn^II, Co^II, and Ni^II complexes while a slight distortion in octahedral geometry has been noticed for Cu^II complexes. The low conductivity data of all the complexes suggest their non-ionic nature.     

Complexes of N-phenyl-N′-2-furanthiocarbohydrazide with oxovanadium(IV), manganese(III), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II)

A new ligand, N-phenyl-N -2-furanthiocarbohydrazide (HPhfth), and its complexes with VO^IV, Mn^III, Fe^III, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurements, i.r., n.m.r., u.v.–vis., mass and FAB mass spectral data.

The Ni^II and Cu^II complexes semiconduct, but the Zn^II complex is an insulator at room temperature. However, the conductivity increases as the temperature increases from 303–383 K, with a band gap of 0.21–1.01 eV. HPhfth and its soluble complexes have been screened against several bacteria and fungi.     

A New Sulfur‐containing Schiff‐Base Ligand and Binding to Copper(II) and Cobalt(II)

A new Schiff‐base ligand having a potentially coordinating thioether group (2‐quinoline‐N‐(2′‐methylthiophenyl)methyleneimine, qmtpm ) has been prepared. The synthesis, structure, UV‐Vis and EPR studies of one copper(II) and two cobalt(II) complexes from this ligand is reported. The X‐ray structures of the Cu^II and Co^II chlorido complexes 1 and 2 reveal the metal atoms in highly distorted square‐pyramidal environments constituted of one tridentate ligand and two anions. On the other hand, the thiocyanato Co^II compound 3 exhibits a distorted trigonal‐bipyramidal structure. These structural variations are apparently due to the different counter‐ions which leads to distinct lattice interactions. The spectroscopic data obtained by EPR and UV‐Vis investigations are in agreement with the solid‐state structures of the coordination compounds.     

Synthesis, Characterization and Antibacterial Activity of Some Transition Metal cis-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiensemicarbazone Complexes

The synthesis and characterization of some transition metal cis-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiensemicarbazone (CDOSC) complexes are reported. The ligand CDOSC yields: [ML₂ Cl₂] and [ML₂ Cl₂] Cl type complexes, where M = Cr^III, Mn^II, Fe^III, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II, Cd^II and Hg^II, L = CDOSC.

All the complexes exhibit strong inhibitory action against Gram (+) bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Gram (−) bacteria Escherichia coli. The antibacterial activities of the complexes are stronger than those of the ligand CDOSC itself.     

Chelated complexes of cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), mercury(II), nickel(II), uranyl(II) and zinc(II) with benzil bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone)

Summary Complexes of Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II, Cd^II, Hg^II and UO ₂ ^II with benzil bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone), H₂BPT, have been synthesized and their structures assigned based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility and spectroscopic measurements. The i.r. spectra suggest that the ligand behaves as a binegative quadridentate (NSSN) (Co^II, Cu^II, Hg^II and UO ₂ ^II complexes) or as a binegative quadridentate-neutral bidentate chelating agent (Ni^II, Zn^II and Cd^II complexes). Octahedral structures for the Co^II and Ni^II complexes and square-planar structure for the Cu^II complex are suggested on the basis of magnetic and spectral evidence. The crystal field parameters (Dq, B and _B) for the Co^II complex are calculated and agree fairly well with the values reported for known octahedral complexes. The ligand can be used for the microdetermination of Ni^II ions of concentration in the 0.4–6×10^–4 mol l^–1 range and the apparent formation constant for the species generated in solution has also been calculated.     

Synthesis,spectral and antimicrobial activity studies of o-aminoacetophenone o-hydroxybenzoylhydrazone complexes

Coordination compounds of Mn^II, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II, Cd^II and Hg^II ions with o-aminoacetophenone o-hydroxybenzoylhydrazone (AAOHBH) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivity, magnetic moments (at ca. 25°C) and spectral (i.r., u.v., n.m.r. and m.s.) studies. The i.r. spectra show that the ligand acts in a monovalent bidentate, neutral bidentate and/or neutral tridentate fashion, depending on the metal salt used and the reaction medium. Tetrahedral structures are proposed for both Co^II and Ni^II complexes and square planar for Cu^II complexes on the basis of magnetic and spectral evidence. The complex formation in solution was investigated potentiometrically and spectrophotometrically. Spectral studies in solution show that the ligand can be used for the microdetermination of Co^II ion within a metal concentration up to 46.3p.p.m. The electrical conductivity of AAOHBH and its metal complexes was determined. The tendency of AAOHBH to form complexes with Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Cd^II and Hg^II ions in 50% aqueous-dioxane was studied by pH measurements.The antimicrobiol activity of AAOHBH and its complexes derived from Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II illustrates that the Ni^II complex seems to be inert towards Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. The antimicrobial activity of the Cu^II complex was higher against E. coli and lower against B. subtilis than the corresponding organic ligand. The Co^II complex has the same activity as the organic ligand against E. coli.     

Structural studies on cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes of 1-malonyl-bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazide)

Summary Several new complexes of the title ligand (H₂MPTS) with Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, and Cd^II have been prepared. Structural assignments of the complexes have been made based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic moment and spectral (i.r.,¹H n.m.r., reflectance) studies. The compounds are non-conductors in dimethylsulphoxide. The neutral molecule is coordinated to the metal(II) sulphate as a bidentate ligandvia the two carbonyl groups. The ligand reacts with the metal(II) chlorides with the liberation of two hydrogen ions, behaving as a bianionic quadridentate (NONO) donor. Enolization is confirmed by the pH-titration of H₂ MPTS and its metal(II) complexes against NaOH. A distorted octahedral structure is proposed for the Cu^II complex, while a square planar structure is suggested for both Co^II and Ni^II complexes. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed in EtOH and buffer solutions, their apparent formation constants and the ranges for obedience to Beer's law are reported for Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II ions. The ligand pK values are calculated. The antimicrobial activity of H₂ MPTS and its Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Mn^II complexes is demonstrated.     

Synthesis and Characterization of New Macrocyclic Cu（Ⅱ） Complexes from Various Diamines, Copper（Ⅱ） Nitrate and 1,4-Bis（2-formylphenoxy）butane

Six new macrocyclic complexes were synthesized by a template reaction of 1,4-bis（2-formylphenoxy）butane with diamines and Cu（NO3）2·3H2O and their structures were proposed on the basis of elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductivity measurements and mass spectra. The metal to ligand molar ratios of the Cu（Ⅱ） complexes were found to be 1 ： 1. The Cu（Ⅱ） complexes are 1 ： 2 electrolytes as shown by their molar conductivities （∧m） in DMF at 10^-3 mol·L^-1. Due to the existence of free ions the Cu（Ⅱ） complexes are electrically conductive. Their configurations were proposed to be probably distorted octahedral.

The complexes were characterized via elemental analyses, molar conductivities and thermogravimetric analyses. Organic reagents were used for the gravimetric determination of Co²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Fe³⁺ through the precipitation of their complexes. The compounds were also used for separation of a binary mixture of Cu²⁺ and Cu²⁺. Interferences were studied.     

Cyano‐Bridged ‘Oximato’ Complexes: Synthesis,Structure, and Catalase‐Like Activities

The reaction of the ‘oximato’‐ligand precursor A (Fig. 1) and metal salts with KCN gave two mononuclear complexes [ML(CN)(H₂O)_n](ClO₄) ( 1 and 2 ; L={N‐(hydroxy‐κO)‐α‐oxo‐N′‐[(pyridin‐2‐yl‐κN)methyl[1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4‐ethanimidamidato‐κN′}; M=Co^II ( 1 ), Cu^II ( 2 ); n=2 for Co^II, n=0 for Cu^II; Figs. 2 and 3). The new cyano‐bridged pentanuclear ‘oximato’ complexes [{ML(H₂O)_n(NC)}₄M¹(H₂O)_x](ClO₄)₂ ( 3 – 6 ) and trinuclear complexes [{ML(H₂O)_n(NC)}₂M¹L](ClO₄) ( 7 – 10 ) ([M¹=Mn^II, Cu^II; x=2 for Mn^II, x=0 for Cu^II] were synthesized from mononuclear complexes and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, and IR and thermal analysis. The four [ML(CN)(H₂O)_n]⁺ moieties are connected by a metal(II) ion in the pentanuclear complexe 3 – 6 , each one involving four cyano bridging ligands (Fig. 4). The central metal ion displays a square‐planar or octahedral geometry, with the cyano bridging ligands forming the equatorial plane. The axial positions are occupied by two aqua ligands in the case of the central Mn‐atom. The two [ML(CN)(H₂O)_n]⁺ moieties and an ‘oximato’ ligand are connected by a metal(II) ion in the trinuclear complexes 7 – 10 , each one involving two cyano bridging ligands (Fig. 5). The central metal ions display a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry, with two cyano bridging ligands and the donor atoms of the tridentate ‘oximato’ ligand. Moreover catalytic activities of the complexes for the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) were also investigated in the presence of 1H‐imidazole. The synthesized homopolynuclear Cu^II complexes 6 and 10 displayed eficiency in disproportion reactions of H₂O₂ producing H₂O and dioxygen thus showing catalase‐like activity.
