Abstract Background Metal complexes Cu[C13H8O4N]22, Ni[Cl3H8O4N]23, and Co[C13H8O4N]24 of bioinorganic relevance have been synthesized with the Schiff base ligand 2-furylglyoxal–anthranilic acid (FGAA) [C13H9O4N] 1. All the complexes are well characterized by various spectral and physical methods. The antimicrobial activity of the complexes has been studied against some of the pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Results Results indicate that complexes have higher antimicrobial activity than the free ligand. This would suggest that chelation reduces considerably the polarity of the metal ions in the complexes which in turn increases the hydrophobic character of the chelate and thus enables permeation, through the lipid layer of microorganisms. All the complexes were assessed for their anticancer studies against a panel of selected cancer cells HOP62 and BT474 respectively. Results showed that the complexes are promising chemotherapeutic alternatives in the search of anticancer agents. The fluorescence quenching phenomenon is observed in the Schiff base metal complexes. Conclusion The octahedral transition metal complexes 2, 3, and 4 have been obtained by treatment of ligand 2-furylglyoxal-anthranilic acid (FGAA) 1 with metal acetate. Complexes under investigations have shown antimicrobial, potential anticancer, and the DNA binding studies. Graphical abstract

Abstract 2,2’-((1Z-1’Z) (1,3-diphenylpropane-1,3-diylidene) bis (azanylylidene)) dibenzoic acid (H2L) Schiff base ligand, was obtained by condensation reaction between anthranilic acid and dibenzoyl methane in 2:1 ratio.A series of Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes was resulted from 1:1 (ligand: metal salt) reaction.The structural features of the synthesized ligand and its metal complexes was determined by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR, UV-Vis, ESR, mass spectra, conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements as well as thermal (TG/DTG) analyses. The analytical and spectroscopic tools showed that the complexes had composition of ML type with octahedral geometry. The IR results confirmed the tetradendate binding of the ligand involving two azomethine nitrogen atoms and two carboxylate oxygens. The Schiff base and its complexes have been screened for their antimicrobial activity against several bacterial organisms as (Streptococcus pneumoniae and Bacillus subtilis; Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli) and fungi (Aspergillus fumigatus; Syncephalastrum racemosum; Geotricum candidum and Candida albicans) by disk diffusion method.All the metal complexes have potent antimicrobial activity than the free ligand. Anticancer activity of the ligand and its metal complexes was evaluated against human cancer (MCF-7 cells viability).

The metal complexes of Ti(III), Cr(III), Fe(III), VO(IV), MoO2(VI), WO2(VI), Th(IV) have been synthesized with hydrazone ligand. The mononucleating hydrazone ligand has been synthesized via condensation reaction between pyrazine-2-carbohydrazide and 2,4-dihydroxy benzophenone in 1:1 ratio. The ligand and its complexes were studied on the basis of elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR and electronic spectra, TGA, XRD, 1H NMR, mass spectroscopy and SEM analysis. Spectroscopic and magnetic studies suggest coordination of most of the metal complexes in a regular octahedral around the central metal ions except vanadium which is square pyramidal. Free ligand as well as its metal complexes were screened against the growth of pathogenic bacteria. The inhibition data revealed that metal complexes exhibit higher inhibition potential against growth of bacteria and fungi than free ligand.

Metal complexes of Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Mn(II) and Zn(II) VO(IV) with a Schiff base derived from 3-Ethoxy Salicylaldehyde and 2-(2-amino-phenyl)1-H-Benzimidazol(2-[(Z)-{(2-(1H-benzimidazole-2yl)phenyl] imino} methyl]-6-ethoxy phenol-BMEP) were synthesized successfully. The resulting complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic moment measurements, conductivity measurements, IR, UV-VIS, 1H NMR, mass spectra and ESR spectral studies. According to these data, we propose an octahedral geometry to all the metal complexes. Antimicrobial activity of the ligand and its metal complexes were studied against two gram negative bacteria:E. coli, Pseudomonas flourescenceand two gram positive bacteria:Bacillus subitilis, Staphylococcus aureus. The activity data show that the metal complexes are more potent than the free ligand.

Transition Metal Complexes of Mn(II),Co(II) and Ni(II) with Schiff base derived from 4- chloroaniline and Salicylaldehyde were synthesized and characterized by conductivity measurement, magnetic susceptibility, infrared spectra, metal-ligand ratio determination and solubility test. The Schiff base and its metal complexes were tested for antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli and fungal activity against Aspergillus flavus and Mucor species. The low molar conductance values range (16-28.1Ohm- cm2 mol-1) indicated that all the complexes are non electrolytes. The magnetic susceptibility revealed that all the complexes are paramagnetic in nature. The metal-ligand ratio was found to be 1:2 in all the complexes. The infrared spectra suggested that the Schiff base behaves as a bidentate ligand. The antimicrobial studies revealed moderate activity against the tested organism when compared with the standards (Ciprofloxacin and Ketoconazole), and this activity increases by increasing concentration. And also the Metal Complexes showed higher activity than free Ligand due to chelation.Keywords: Salicyldehyde, 4-chloroaniline, Mn(II), Co(II), Zn(II) complexes, antimicrobial activity

New series of copper (II), cobalt (II), zinc (II), nickel (II), manganese (II), iron (II) complexes of a novel Schiff base were prepared by the condensation of sulphadizine and pyridoxal hydrochloride. The ligand and metal complexes were characterized by utilizing different instrumental procedures like microanalysis, thermogravimetric examination and spectroscopy. The integrated ligand and transition metal complexes were screened against various bacteria and fungus. The studies demonstrated the enhanced activity of metal complexes against reported microbes when compared with free ligand.

Abstract This article aimed at the synthesis and molecular docking assessment of new diimine Schiff base ligand, namely 2-((E)-(2-((Z)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxyvinyl)hydrazono) methyl)-6-methoxyphenol (methoxy-diim), via the condensation of 1-(4-chloro-phenyl)-2-hydrazino-ethenol compound with 2-((E)-(2-((Z)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxy vinyl) hydrazono)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol in acetic acid as well as the preparation of new binuclear complexes of Co(ii), Ni(ii), Cu(ii), and Zn(ii). The following synthesized complexes were prepared in a ratio of 2:1 (metal/ligand). The 1H-NMR, UV-Vis, and FTIR spectroscopic data; molar conductivity measurements; and microanalytical, XRD, TGA/DTG, and biological studies were carried out to determine the molecular structure of these complexes. According to the spectroscopic analysis, the two central metal ions were coordinated with the diamine ligand via the nitrogen of the hydrazine and oxygen of the hydroxyl groups for the first metal ions and via the nitrogen of the hydrazine and oxygen of the phenol group for the second metal ions. Molecular docking for the free ligand was carried out against the breast cancer 3hb5-oxidoreductase and the 4o1v-protein binding kidney cancer and COVID-19 protease, and good results were obtained.
