Bio-active mixed ligand Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of pyrimidine derivative Schiff base: DFT calculation, antimicrobial, antioxidant, DNA binding, anticancer and molecular docking studies

TL;DR: In vitro cytotoxicity of the Schiff base (HL) and complexes 1–4 shows that complex 1 shows better ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and may be an appreciated material in cancer chemotherapy mediators in imminent years.

TL;DR: In this article, two new isostructural coordination compounds of cobalt and zinc involving 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,5-pyridine dicarboxylate were synthesized and characterised using FT-IR, electronic spectroscopy, thermal analysis, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques.
Abstract: Two new isostructural coordination compounds of cobalt(II) and zinc(II) involving 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,5-pyridine dicarboxylate, viz., [Co(2,5-PDC)(phen)2]·9H2O (1) and [Zn(2,5-PDC)(phen)2]·9H2O (2) (in which, PDC = pyridine dicarboxylate, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized and characterised using FT-IR, electronic spectroscopy, thermal analysis, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Crystal structure analysis reveals that the neighboring monomeric units of 1 and 2 are self-assembled via π-stacking, C–H⋯π and C–H⋯O interactions. Fascinating and unusual discrete (H2O)21 clusters in 2 stabilize the network architecture. The self-assembled enclathration of water clusters in the hexameric supramolecular host cavity of 1 provides additional reinforcement to the crystal structure. The strength of the biologically relevant cooperative π-stacking interactions for 1 and 2 has been investigated using DFT calculations and analyzed using an NCI plot index. Remarkably, the (π–π)1 binding modes in the ternary π-stacked assemblies are energetically more significant than the (π–π)2 mode due to the contribution of the two symmetrically related C–H⋯O interactions. The large and almost identical dipole moments of the compounds nullify the influence of the metal centers on the strength of the cooperative π-stacked assemblies, and this corroborates the strong binding energies. The compounds significantly induce concentration dependent cell cytotoxicity and apoptosis in DL cancer cells with negligible cytotoxicity in normal cells. The molecular docking study and pharmacophore features establish the structure activity relationship (SAR) of the compounds.

TL;DR: It is found that the higher toxicity of Fe3O4@SiO2@APTS ∼ Schiff base-Cu(II) (IC50: 1000 μg/mL) is due to their stronger in situ degradation, with larger intracellular release of iron ions, as compared to surface passivated NPs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical nature of the antioxidant is known and a test specific for the compound or group of interest; for example, the nitroprusside test for sulphydryl groups.
Abstract: METHODS for measuring antioxidants and appraising antioxidant activity appear to be of two general types. If the chemical nature of the antioxidant is known, one may strive for a test specific for the compound or group of interest; for example, the nitroprusside test for sulphydryl groups. Alternatively one may observe the inhibition of some natural oxidative process such as the β-oxidation of fats, as a function of the added antioxidant.
