Synthetic stratagem, characterization and biocidal applications of triorganotin(IV) complexes derived from hydrazide/hydrazone analogues
摘要:
A series of Schiff base ligands as benzylidene benzohydrazide and their hydrazone analogues (I-a-I-c) have been synthesized and then complexed with organotin(IV) moiety having general formula [R'(3) SnL] to get the target compounds(1-9), where L = C4H3OCONHN=CHR, R = C6H5O(I-a), C4H5O(I-b), C6H3Cl2(I-c) and R' = -CH3(1-3), -CH2Ph(4-6), -Ph(7-9). They were fully characterized using FT-IR, NMR(H-1, C-13 and Sn-119) spectroscopy, along with elemental analysis and melting point. One of the precursor (I-b) has been analyzed by single crystal XRD to further authenticate the structure. The Sn-119 NMR data suggest the molecular geometry of organotin derivatives as distorted pentagonal bipyramidal. They were also evaluated for their antibacterial, antifungal, alpha-amylase inhibition, DPPH, total reducing power and total antioxidant activities. Triaryltin(IV) derivatives show good antibacterial and antifungal activity. Whereas the data for antidiabetic activity demonstrated that the compounds may serve as moderately effective alpha amylase inhibitor.
Mechanistic differences between in vitro assays for hydrazone-based small molecule inhibitors of anthrax lethal factor
摘要:
A systematically generated series of hydrazones were analyzed as potential inhibitors of anthrax lethal factor. The hydrazones were screened using one UV-based and two fluorescence-based in vitro assays. The study identified several inhibitors with IC50 values in the micromolar range, and importantly, significant differences in the types of inhibition were observed with the different assays.
