A novel tridentate Schiff base, 1-((E)-(2-mercaptophenylimino) methyl) naphthalen-2-ol (H2L1), was synthesized by the condensation reaction of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with 2-aminothiophenol in absolute ethanol. The resulting ligand was reacted with Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) ions to obtain tetrah...

| description | A novel tridentate Schiff base, 1-((E)-(2-mercaptophenylimino) methyl) naphthalen-2-ol (H2L1), was synthesized by the condensation reaction of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with 2-aminothiophenol in absolute ethanol. The resulting ligand was reacted with Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) ions to obtain tetrahedral CoL1, NiL1, and square planar CuL1 complexes. The Schiff base and its metal complexes were characterized using 1H-NMR, microanalysis, FT-IR, UV-visible, and mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS). All the compounds are soluble in DMSO and DMF. Spectroscopic studies show that the ligand coordinates to the metal center through the azomethine nitrogen, naphthoxide oxygen, and thiophenoxide sulfur to form a tridentate chelate system. Conductance measurements show that these compounds are molecular in solution. Cyclic voltammetry studies show Co(III)/Co(II) and Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox systems to be quasi-reversible involving a monoelectronic transfer while Ni(III)/Ni(II) was irreversible. In vitro antibacterial and antifungal activity against five bacterial strains (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus faecalis, and Proteus mirabilis) and five fungal strains (Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, Candida krusei, and Candida parapsilosis) showed no antifungal activity but moderate antibacterial activity on E. coli, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, and P. mirabilis bacterial strains. Antioxidant studies reveal that the ligand and its Cu(II) complex are more potent than Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes to eliminate free radicals. |
