A bidentate (N- and O-) imine-based ligand (L1) and its metal complexes of types [CuII(L1)2] (C1), [CuII(L1)(Phen)] (C2), [CoIII(L1)2] (C3), and [CoIII(L1)(Phen)] (C4) (L1 = 2-((E)-(6-fluorobenzo[d]thiazol-2-ylimino)methyl)-4-chlorophenol and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) were synthesized as potential chemotherapeutic drug candidates. The prepared complexes were structurally characterized by spectral techniques (NMR, FT-IR, LC-MS, EPR, and electronic absorption), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DTA), magnetic moment, and CHNO elemental analysis. Spectroscopic studies suggested the distorted octahedral structure for all complexes. In vitro bioassay studies include binding and nuclease activities of the ligand and its complexes with target calf thymus- (CT-) DNA were carried out by employing UV-Vis, fluorescence spectroscopy, viscosity, and gel electrophoresis techniques. The extent of binding propensity was determined quantitatively by Kb and Ksv values which revealed a higher binding affinity for C2 and C4 as compared to C1 and C3. In addition, the scavenging superoxide anion free radical (O∙-2) activity of metal complexes was determined by nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) light reduction assay. Molecular docking studies with DNA and SOD enzyme were also carried out on these compounds. The antimicrobial study has shown that all the compounds are potential antibacterial agents against Gram-negative bacterial strains and better antifungal agents with respect to standard drugs used.

Cyclademol (1) was converted for the first time to 1-(4-hydroxy-3,3-dimethylcyclohexyl) ethanone (2) and 4-(1-hydroxyethyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclohexanol (3) with 31.2 and 15.1% yields by Aspergillus niger and Neurospora crassa, respectively. The resulting metabolite structures were established by FT-IR, MS and NMR spectroscopic studies, respectively. In addition, the in vitro antimicrobial activities of the substrates and metabolites were evaluated comparatively both by using agar dilution and microdilution methods. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of the tested compounds against a panel of pathogenic bacterial strains ranged from 1000 - 4000 μg/mL, whereas the MIC values against fungal strains were between 500 −1000 μg/mL.

Titanium(IV) complexes of type[(η5-C5H5)2TiCl(L)] have been synthesized by the reactions of bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV)dichloride with Schiff bases (LH) derived by the condensation of 5-(substituted aryl)-2-hydrazino-1,3,4-oxadiazole and indoline-2,3-dione in tetrahydrofuranin the presence oftriethylamine. All these complexes are soluble in PhNO2, DMF and DMSO.The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, electrical conductance, magnetic susceptibility, UV-Vis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, XRD and SEM spectral techniques. Low molar conductance values indicate that they are non-electrolytes. The spectral data indicate5-coordinate geometry for the complexes.XRD pattern indicate that the complexes have monoclinic crystal system and particle sizes were found 49.36 nm (nano-size). In vitro antifungal activity of synthesized compounds was evaluated against fungi Aspergillusniger, Aspergillusflavus,ColletotrichumfalcatumandIn vitro antibacterial activity was determined by screening the compounds against gram negative (P. aeruginosa, S.typhi) and gram positive (S. aureus and B.subtilis) bacterial strains using minimum inhibition concentration method (MIC) by serial dilution technique. The titanocene(IV) complexes have higher antimicrobial effect than the parent Schiff bases.

This paper reports the synthesis and detailed characterisation of copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes with tridentate thiosemicarbazone ligands H2L1 and H2L2 derived from 2-acetylpyrazine. The ligands and their metal complexes were characterised by different physicochemical techniques, including elemental and thermogravimetric analysis; UV-Vis, IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy; molar conductance measurements; and mass spectrometry. The crystal structure of the H2L1 ligand was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The spectral data showed that the thiosemicarbazone behaves as an NNS tridentate ligand through the nitrogen atoms of the azomethine group and pyrazine ring and the sulphur atom of the thioamide group. Elemental and thermal analyses indicated that the obtained metal complexes had a 1 : 1 stoichiometry (metal-ligand). The interactions between these complexes and calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) were studied by electronic absorption and viscosity measurements. The activities of these compounds against oxidative DNA cleavage were examined by agarose gel electrophoresis. Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes can wind DNA strands through groove interactions and promote strand breakage of the plasmid pmCherry under oxidative stress conditions. Moreover, all the complexes could interact more strongly with DNA than could with the free ligands. Finally, the antibacterial activities of the ligands and their complexes were determined by in vitro tests against Gram-positive bacterial strains (S. aureus ATCC 25923, L. monocytogenes ATCC 19115, and B. cereus ATCC 10876) and Gram-negative bacterial strains (E. coli ATCC 25922, S. typhimurium ATCC 14028, and K. pneumoniae ATCC BAA-2146) using the broth microdilution method. The metal complexes showed greater antimicrobial activities than the precursor ligands against some of the microorganisms.

A series of sixteen new ionic liquids (ILs) bearing imidazolium moiety were designed and synthesized under sustainable and green conditions which were confirmed by analytical and spectral techniques using 1H- & 13C-NMR, FT-IR, mass and elemental analysis. A panel of clinically isolated strains was used for in vitro inhibitory antimicrobial activities screening of synthesized ionic liquids. The results of antimicrobial assay showed that some of synthesized ionic liquids showed moderate to good activity. Among these ILs, ionic liquids 3, 4 and 5 (bearing alkyl chain with a phenyl group) significantly inhibited cell growth of strains. In this regard, these ionic liquids considered as promising antibacterial agents when compared with standard antibiotics. By encouraging in vitro antimicrobial screening, in silico ADMET evaluation has been performed and found excellent pharmacokinetic, bioavailability and toxicity profiles. Synthesized ionic liquids has found to be safe and non-toxic according to calculated in vivo computed LD50 values (2.49-2.80 mg/kg) for rat acute toxicity.

1-((dicyclohexylamino)(phenyl)methyl) pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (SDB) has been synthesized as a result of succinimide, benzaldehyde and dicyclohexylamine Mannich base condensation and its CoII, NiII and CuII complexes were prepared. The structure of the Mannich Base ligand (SDB) was elucidated on the basis of FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and Mass spectral studies. The monomeric and non-electrolytic nature of the metal complexes is evidenced by their magnetic susceptibility and low conductance data studies. Spectral tests, mainly FT-IR studies as well as elemental analysis, were carried out to verify the structures of the newly synthesized compounds. All the metal complexes possess a six-coordinate geometry. The synthesized ligand and its metal complexes have been tested against Gram-positive strains (Staphylococcus aureus and Micrococcus luteus), Gram-negative strains (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and fungal strains (Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus fumigates) for their in vitro anti-bacterial and anti-fungal activities. Preliminary antimicrobial studies of the ligand and their metal complexes have also been carried out in order to understand the toxic effect of ligands and metal complexes against the selective microbes. The results showed that the metal chelates of the ligands showed higher antimicrobial activities than the free ligand SDB and CoII  complexes possess higher activity than the other metal complexes.
