thiosemicarbazide and Bacterial-Infections

Some thiosemicarbazide complexes were prepared and deliberately investigated by all allowed tools. The ligand coordinates as a mono negative bidentate towards VO(II) and Ni(II) as well as a neutral bidentate towards Pd(II) and Cu(II) ions. Electronic spectral data beside the magnetic measurements facilitate the structural geometry proposal. EPR spectra of Cu(II) and VO(II) complexes were recorded in their solid state. Spin Hamiltonian parameters and molecular orbital coefficient for Cu(II) and VO(II) complexes were calculated and supporting the octahedral geometry of Cu(II) complex and a square pyramidal for VO(II) one. The biological activity investigation was studied by the use of all prepared compounds. The VO(II) and Cu(II) complexes display the susceptible biotoxicity against a gram-positive bacterium. Also, Cu(II) complex displays the same toxicity against gram-negative bacteria used. The effect of all compounds on DNA were photographed. A successive degradation for the DNA target was observed with Pd(II) and Ni(II) complexes beside their original ligand.

Two derivatives of thiosemicarbazide were prepared. Their complexes were prepared using Mn(II) and Cu(II) salts. All the isolated complexes are characterized using the following spectra: IR, UV-Vis, Mass, (1)H NMR and X-ray diffraction. Magnetic measurements and thermal analysis are the other additive tools for complete investigation. Mononuclear and binuclear complexes are proposed based on elemental analysis mainly. The IR spectra offer the mode of coordination of each ligand with each metal ion. The electronic spectra and magnetic measurements are proposing the structural geometry of the investigated complexes. The octahedral geometry proposed for Mn(II) complexes but the square-planar for Cu(II) complexes. The (1)H NMR spectra were done for all organic compounds used in this study and displaying the most suitable tautomer of them. X-ray diffraction of H(2)L(1) and its complexes show their amorphous nature but H(2)L(2) ligand and its complexes show their nanocrystalline nature. The TG analysis was used to prove the presence of solvent molecules attached with the complexes as covalently or physically. Finally, the biological investigation was carried out for H(2)L(2) ligand and its complexes and displaying the inhibition activity of Cu(II) complex than the Mn(II) one.
