Copper complexes with bioactive ligands

Abstract: Biological properties of new copper(II) complexes of 2-methylthionicotinate (2-MeSNic) of composition Cu(2-MeSNic)2(MeNia)(2).4H2O (where MeNia is N-methyl-nicotinamide), Cu(2-MeSNic)2(Nia)(2).2H2O (where Nia is nicotinamide) and Cu(2-MeSNic)2L2 (where L is isonicotinamide (iNia) or ethyl nicotinate (EtNic)) are reported. Gram(-)-bacteria (Escherichia coli) are more resistant against Cu(II) complexes than Gram(+)-bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus)--significant antistaphylococcal activity was found with Cu(2-MeSN… Show more

“…bacteria Staphylococcus aureus CCM 3953, G -bacteria Escherichia coli CCM 3988 and by macrodilution method in L-shape tubes using the yeasts Candida albicans under vigorous shaking [26]. The effect of the tested compounds on the growth of filamentous fungi Rhizopus oryzae CCM F-8284, Alternaria alternate CCM F-128 and Microsporum gypseum CCM F-8342 was observed by macrodilution technique on solidified broth medium during static culturing, and the diameters of growing fungal colonies were measured at selected time intervals [27,28]. The studied compounds were dissolved in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO).…”

“…Antibacterial and anti-yeast activities of the tested compounds were evaluated by a micro-dilution method [11] [12]. The antimicrobial activity was characterized by the IC 50 values (concentration of a derivative which in comparison to the control inhibits the growth of microorganisms to 50%) and MIC values (minimal inhibitory concentration of a derivative which inhibits microbial growth by 100%).…”

“…Nicotinic acid is also applied in the skin following topical applications as vasodilator of the peripheral blood capillaries [4] or in the treatment of pellagra [5,6]. Synthesis, spectral and magnetic properties, antimicrobial effects and crystal structures of various CuX 2 Á nH 2 O complexes (where X is nicotinate -nic, isonicotinate -isonic, 2-methylthionicotinate -2-MeSnic; 2,6-dimethoxynicotinate and trans-3-(3-pyridyl)-acrylate, n ¼ 0-4) as well as of their molecular adducts with chelating or N-heterocyclic ligands have been reported [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

“…Different coordination modes of the pyridinecarboxylate (coordinated not only through the carboxylate group, but also through the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring) lead to formation of mononuclear, dimeric or polynuclear structures. Moreover, biological properties of 2-methylthionicotinatecopper(II) adducts with nicotinamide, isonicotinamide, N-methylnicotinamide or ethylnicotinate have been reported [27,28].…”
