Abstract: | 3-(2-(Alkylthio)phenylazo)-2,4-pentanedione (HL), an O, N, S donor ligand, is used for the synthesis of Ni(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes. The spectroscopic (IR, UV-Vis, and NMR) data determine the structure. The single crystal X-ray diffraction measurement of [Ni(L)2] and [Pt(L)Cl] has confirmed the structures. Coulometric oxidation of [Ni(L)2] and EPR spectra thereof show formation of Ni(III) state. DFT computation has calculated the electronic configuration and has explained the spectral and redox properties of the complexes. The compounds are screened for their in vitro anti-bacterial activity using Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (Bacillus subtilis UC564, Escherichia coli TG1, Staphylococcus aureus Bang25, Pseudomonas aeruginosa C/1/7, Salmonella typhi NCTC62, Salmonella paratyphi NCTC A2, Shigella dysenteriae 8NCTC599/52, Streptococcus faecalis S2, Vibrio cholerae DN7 and Mricococcus luteusAGD1). The minimum inhibitory concentration is determined for the compounds. The effect of the structure of the investigated compounds on the antibacterial activity is discussed. |
