Synthesis, Characterization, Antibacterial, Antifungal and Antimalarial Study of
Mixed Ligand Metal Complexes Derived from Azo Quinoline with Thiosemicarbazone

Thiosemicarbazone complexes possess structural diversity and variable bonding patterns and potential biological implications and ion sensing abilities. The ability of the transition metals to acquire different geometries like octahedral, square planar and tetrahedral in different coordination environments has encouraged researchers to explore the coordination chemistry of thiosemicarbazone complexes which can also vary upon changing aldehydes and ketones, substituents attached to the carbonyl moiety, metal and its oxidation state, geometries, counter ions, presence of a solvent or additional molecules in the structures and substituents on the S or N(4)-atoms. This review aims to summarize recent developments in the synthesis and medicinal importance of thiosemicarbazone ligands and particular emphasis on their metal complexes. The mixed ligand-metal complexes have an important role to play in biological systems because a number of ligands try to combine with the same metal ions in vivo. Different ligands have different biological activities producing synergetic results and enhancing the potency of the formed complex. They also have a role to play in the storage and transport of substances, therefore the review article also covers the mixed ligand complexes of thiosemicarbazones with hetero ligands like 1,10-phenanthroline, pyridine, triphenyl phosphine etc. and their mechanistic action and medicinal benefits in recent years. The binuclear complexes of thiosemicarbazones with two different and same metal ions have also been explored here. Dinuclear complexes have been shown to possess interesting structures and in most cases, such complexes containing metal-metal bond also affects the complex's magnetic properties as well. It has been well discussed in the course of this study that metal complexes show enhanced biological activity than the free ligand or metal ion. The studies cited in the review have been sourced from publications indexed in known databases. Some of the recently explored structural alterations have been discussed in the paper and future substituted thiosemicarbazones and their complexes may emerge as multi-target inhibitors.

Present study described the synthesis of mixed ligand metal complexes of Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II). Metal complexes were synthesized by two ligands such as 8-hydroxyquinoline derivative (primary ligand) and bis(indolyl)methane derivative (secondary ligand). The ligands and their transition metal complexes were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, mass spectrum, elemental analysis, TGA, electronic spectra (UV) and molar conductance. The results of analysis predicted that both ligands are bidentate and resulting complexes are ML1L2 type with molar ratio 1:1:1. To screen their biological potential, the antibacterial and antifungal activity of synthesized compounds have also been investigated. Results of antimicrobial activity were expressed as minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Synthesized complexes showed moderate to excellent antimicrobial activity against pathogens. Further, the more potent antimicrobial complexes of Fe(II) and Co(II) were docked with topoisomerase II as a receptor protein, Fe-complex bound to Met1113 (2.53 Å), Asn1296 (2.86 Å) and with nucleotide DC12 (3.28 Å). Similarly, Co-complex bound to Lys1276 (2.27 Å), Leu1280 (2.40 Å), Thr1325 (2.37 Å) and Gly1332 (2.42 Å) via intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
